Whitt a native of Tazewell County, Virginia moved to Kentucky in 1970 to carry out his trade as a Sheet Metal Worker with Local 24, Southern Ohio. Although he is now retired, he has always had an interest in genealogy and was always a real history buff for regional and civil war history, however, he didn't pursue his interest until he started researching his ancestry on-line in 1999.
While tracing his family's heritage, Whitt was soon introduced to his great-grandfather David Crockett Whitt. Yes, the discoveries that he had made during his fascinating search led him to create “Legacy, The Days of David Crockett Whitt,” a work of historical fiction with his great-grandfather serving as the skeleton for this account of life in an earlier, and harder time.
Legacy follows Whitt's great-grandfather “Crockett,” through the early settler days in Virginia and Kentucky from 1836 thru 1909, his formative years in Greenup County Kentucky and the time that he spent in a Civil War prison.
Other regional areas mentioned in this particular title include: Portsmouth, South Shore, Hanging Rock, Greenup and Ironton. There are also five chapters included in this writing that are devoted to David Crockett Whitt's war records as well. The book covers some information about Pike, Floyd, Johnson, Lawrence, Greenup, Carter, and Boyd Counties in Kentucky. It covers the entire length of the Tug Fork, on the West Virginia side. The book includes Crockett's detailed service in the Company H, of 29th Virginia Infantry from April 1862 until captured in the evening of April 8, 1865. Much of the book takes in Tazewell and now Buchanan Co., VA. Most of the names, dates, and all the places are accurate.
In Legacy, you will soon discover when acquainting yourself with this particular title is that Whitt encompasses his faith and shows this pioneer family relying on their faith as well to get through trying times.
Charles is able to use the prefix “Colonel” in his pen-name because he is a Kentucky Colonel.
