| Notes for Theophilus WHALEY |
Some early researchers believed that Theophilus may have actually been Robert, son of Richard Whaley (1590-1667) and Frances Cromwell. No proof has ever been found to confirm that theory.
"Old" Rappahannock Co. VA deed abstracts and various court records name Theophilus and wife Elizabeth from Jan, 1672 through Feb 18, 1680.33
Theophilus Whaley was in England about the time that Charles I King of England was beheaded. Theophilus came to America and lived in Virginia for many years..sort of hiding out. He married an Elizabeth Mills from Virginia, they later moved to Providence, RI and they are buried there...on Hopkins Hill Cemetery. Theophilus lived over 100 years and he died in the early 1700's.
Theophilus Whaley may have been the brother of Edward Whaley, the regicide. He appears to have left Virginia in a religious dispute, since Mr. Whaley was a Baptist. |
