Wrote an article on William Haden & family for Kentucky Herald, 1877, published in Russellville, KY "Men Whom I Remember"

In the 1880 Census, George was living with the family of William & Martha Whitsett. William was 77, b. in NC - relationship to the other Whitsitts of Logan Co would be assumed, but I don't know what it might have been. George Blakey gave his occupation as "Retired Politician".
