Death*1891, Comanche, Comanche Co., TX 
Burial*Ebenezer Cem., De Leon, Comanche Co., TX, 320339N0983047W
Census1 June 1850, Gilmer Co., GA, age 30, farmer. No children listed in this household. 
Name Variation1 June 1850, Whisenhunt, recorded name on census report. Actually it was "Whissenhunt". I interpret this to be Whisenhunt.2 
Census1 June 1860, Russellville, Franklin Co., AL, age 39, farming, personal property value $300. His wife is not listed in the census report household. 
NoteHe served in the Union Army, from 12 Dec 1862 until May 1865, in Company E., 64th Illinois Volunteers. He enlisted at Glendale, MS. Pension #150351. 
Census1 June 1870, Russellville, Franklin Co., AL, age 50, farmer, R$30., P$250 
Census*1 June 1880, Comanche Co., TX, age 60, md., farmer 
Note*Here's some ideas I have on this family:

Samuel's wife Mary Elizabeth Wilson died before 1860. She is not in the census report.
In 1870 living in the same household is:

Timmons, Elizabeth, age 40, born TN
Timmons, Joseph, age 11, born AL
Timmons, Eliza, age 9, born AL
Timmons, Mollie, age 3, born AL
Timmons, Jane, age 1, born AL

I think Samuel married Elizabeth Timmons, widow. I blieve it's just a coincidence that Elizabeth Wilson and Elizabeth Timmons were both born in TN around the same time.

The Elizabeth Whisenant who died 13 Feb 1898 is probably Elizabeth Timmons. The birth date on the headstone says 1831 for the birth. Elizabeth Timmons listed her age as 40 in 1870. Elizabeth Wilson listed her age as 22 in 1850.

Did not find Mollie Grant Whisenant, age 3, in the 1870 census. Did find Mollie Timmons, age 3. I think Mollie Whisenant and Mollie Timmons are the same person.

Did not find Manerva A. Whisenant, age 1, in the 1870 census. Did find Jane Timmons, age 1. I think Manerva and Jane are the same person.

Mary E. Whisenant, b.c. 1851, I don't know where she is in 1870.

James Henry Whisenant, b.c. 1855. He is un-accounted for in 1870.

Eliza Timmons, is in the household in 1880, listed as step-daughter to Samuel Whisenant.
