Notes

One of his children by Barbara Remy was while he was still married to her sister Lydia Ann. James Whaley had 7 children by his sister-in-law, Barbara Remy, to whom he was not married. She later married James' brother, William Whaley.

Order Book A, page 98, of Loudoun County, Virginia states that at a Circuit Court held May 8, 1758, "the Grand Jury presented Barbara Remy for having a base born child within six months past and James Whaley, Jr. for absenting from his wife and taking up with another woman & his wife's sister and having a base born child by her within six months."

Order Book A, page 208, states that "At a Circuit Court held March 13, 1759, upon the proceedings returned against James Whaley for breach of the peace, the said James appeared here this day according to his recognizance and thereupon Ann Whaley was sworn against him and he heard his defense. On consideration whereof it is ordered that the complaint be dismissed and that said James be discharged from his recognizance aforesaid."

Apparently wealth and influence were deciding factors in this decision because James Whaley had six more children by Barbara Remy He acknowledged them in his will, surnaming each Remy but adding to each name, "commonly known as Whaley."
