The Reason for the William Whitley Entry


I wrote these notes over a year ago and wasn't sure why I had William Whitley after the two Kentucky soldiers killed in Canada whose bodies were to be returned to Kentucky. (See yesterday's post.)

William Whitley was with these two dead men at the battle, which occurred one day before the bigger Battle of the Thames.

So, that is why and I will also write about Isaac Shelby and the Whitley House State Historic Site in Kentucky.
