Biography listed in Thomas M. Owen, History of Alabama & Dictionary of Alabama Biography (published by Marie Owen, Founder of Alabama Archives and History, 1921). He was a lawyer and jurist. In the 1978 edition reprint of vol. 4 in the Library of Congress (F326.09 1978) I found considerably more genealogical data:
Whitlock, William Lafayette, lawyer and jurist, was born April 22, 1825, at Union, Union District, S.C., and died February 6, 1892, at Gadsden, AL, son of Lot and Elizabeth (Kent) Whitlock, the former a native and resident of Union Court House, Union District, SC, a planter and slave owner whose ancestors came in the 16th century from England to America; grandson of Lot and Elizabeth Whitlock, who lived at Union District and Moved to Calhoun County, and of Bethel and Marion Kent, who lived at Union, the latter being a sister to gen. Francis Marion. He obtained his early education in the common schools of Calhoun County. In early life he was a farmer, and for seven years he was a justice of the peace. he read law and in 1856, at Jacksonville was admitted to the bar. In 1868 he was elected judge of the twelfth judicial circuit of Alabama, and served two terms of six years each, being the only Democrat elected at the time names. When soon after his election, Judge Whitlock opened court in Jacksonville. The town was garrisoned by Federal troops, and a judge had recently been imprisoned by a second lieutenant of the federal army for refusing to allow negroes on a jury. The clerk of the court, the sheriff, and the judge of the probate court summoned negroes to constitute part of a jury in the circuit, but Judge Whitlock dismissed the negroes and informed the officers whose duty it was to select jurors, that they themselves would be committed to jail if thereafter such persons should be brought to act in that capacity. he was a delegate for the preservation of the Union, from Cherokee County to the convention of 1861, which passed Alabama's ordinance of secession. He was a Mason. Married October 7, 1847, at Ladiga, Calhoun County, AL to Lucy, daughter of Benjamin and Elizabeth Bridges, who lived at or near Ladiga and whose ancesters came from South Carolina. Children: 1. Martha Elizabeth, m. James H. Daughdrill, Oneonta; 2. Louisa Matilda, m. Joseph Alexander Walden, Center; John Calhoun, lawyer, Seattle, WA; 4. William Ross, Seattle, WA; 5. Frances Cornelia, m. George R. Daughdrill, Mobile. Last residence Gadsden.

Hi Hank, Thanks for responding to my Whitlock inquiry. Unfortunately I do not have a William nor a Lott. My James Whitlock married Agnes Christmas. I know their children's names but do not know the place of birth for any of them. This information I obtained from Peter Whitlock in Canada. If you do not subscribe to his newsletter you might want to look into it. If you do not have his address I would be happy to send it. Happy Hunting, Fern

Hi, Well if you haven't contacted Peter yet you are in store for a "wealth" of information. He has I believe over 10,000 Whitlock names. And his newsletter is of real interest. In there I learned that there used to be a Whitlock automobile made in England and also included a picture. This family is a stem of ours. I have allowed my subscription to lapse and must renew it sometime soon but the latest address I have is 1232 Oriole Place Port Coquitlam, B.C. Canada, V3B 5K5. When you write to him, give him your family pedrigree sheet and he will send you a whole pedigree back as far as his records go. He will invite you to subscribe to the newsletter, but there is no pressure to do so, he gladly sends the information that pertains to you. I believe the newsletter is only $10 per year for a quarterly issue. If he has e-mail, I am unaware of the address but it's best if you send your pedigree chart with the first inquiry. Good luck, Fern

I have an Asa WHITLOCK born c 1795 in SC He later appears (as an adult) in Choctaw Co. AL. His daughter, Sarah Jane Whitlock married Thomas James. One of their children was named Lafayette James, which I feel came from the Whitlocks. Do you have Asa among your Whitlocks?
