    Compiler's notes: 1) Content includes children of James & Ann (Cooper) Whitall, of James & Hannah (Whitall) Matlack, of Robert & Elizabeth (Henry) Kennedy, and of James & Elizabeth (Kennedy) Matlack. 2) The bottom halves of the first two pages are switched, presumably during repair of breaks across fold lines. 3) Pages are all in same hand, and the latest date is 1828, so this appears to be a compilation of other records, made seventy plus years after the births of the Whitall children.        Gloucester-Co-Hist-Soc-Jan-25-2007.pdf
