| Notes |
- According to John Ray Whalen's son, his father left home because his father's second wife, Mary Lane, was mean to the kids. Harry Whalen described her as a "hellcat." Mary Lane is said to have beaten Stella Whalen a lot and James Knox Polk Whalen eventually left her and went to live with his son, William Harrison Whalen.
