Much of the following information is from Dr. William Heth Whitsitt's, "Annals of a Scotch-Irish Family: The Whitsitt's of Nashville, Tenn.," American Historical Magazine, Vol. IX, Nashville, Tennessee, 1904. I have added additional information that was located during my research of the Whitsett family history. Dr. Whitsitt's history of the very early family was based records or the knowledge of Margaret Whitsitt Blakey.  It is reasonable to assume that Mrs. Blakey's information was passed on to her by her father and is probably reliable. See Samuel Whitsett of Ireland for some of that early history.

Cecil Coale in "Sim and Hade Whitsett" wrote: Dr. Whitsett was a farmer and physician in the Shiloh Community about 8 miles south east of Bonham. This is Dodd City today. He and his family came there from Kentucky about 1853. The Fannin county census of 1850 shows Dr. Whitsett living on the farm of Mr. Dodd. His family had not yet arrived in Texas.

Some years ago when I chanced to be on a visit to Fort Smith I heard gratifying accounts both of himself and his family, But I had no knowledge of the fact that he was of blood relation to me; otherwise, I should have journeyed to Sallisaw to visit him."
