October WFA Board Meeting
Had a robust Board Meeting on Oct 10.
Thanks to our Board Members for keeping our Association going.
And thinks to some interested Members who also joined us at the zoom meeting.
Making a lot of progress this year adding Foster Clay Whiteside’s Family 1000 documents. They have been scanned and converted to one document of the 1st 7 generations. The document , although in Foster Clay’s handwriting , is in a searchable PDF form and available to members on the website. Subsequent Generations are being converted as well but will have limited access due to living members of the family in generations 8 and above. If you have questions about these later descendents contact a WFA Board Member and we will try to assist your research.
Bill R’s Files on the Family Numbers for the most part are loaded on the website. There are combined files, single files and we are still filling in some gaps. Bill R also has a myriad of other files on the Whiteside Family that will also be added to the website over time.
The new website is up and running. There will be bumps here and there but all in all it has a wealth of information for those researching the various Whiteside Families. If you have problems with logging in our have any other questions drop the webmaster a line at : chip.whitesides@gmail.com. Finally , big thanks to Arliss Whiteside for running the old website for many years. He has been instrumental in leading in forming this new website as well.

Family 1000
Have added Tim McClellan’s work on Family 1000 . Here is a screenshot.
Go the the Family Numbers Page and Family 1000 to view the entire documents.
Family 1000 Combined Files added to Website. Just go to Family Numbers and head down to Family 1000. These combined files are primarily documents created by Bill R Whiteside and combined using Adobe into one large PDF. In Family 1000’s case 2 files were made due to the very large size of the PDF. Both parts are about 2000 pages. They are searchable but give the file and the search engine time to work due to the document sizes.
New Family Number Files
Have loaded combined PDF’s for the first 130 or so Family numbers.
These files were primarily products of William R Whiteside.
We are forever in his debt to Bill R and his family for this donation.
