Caveats
Large southern families are often related in many ways. While everyone discussed here is related, it's possible that they may be related on non-Whatley lines.
Steve and his close cousins match to several presumed descendants of Shirley Whatley, but the matches could be attributed to multiple related AL/GA families,
including Bailey, White, and others.
Whatley DNA Project
Steve's line to his fourth-great-grandparents, Samuel Whatley and Catherine Anglin, is believed to be accurate.
Earlier Whatleys were probably direct ancestors, but could be related in other ways.
Whatley AncestryDNA matches

Information about living people is never posted publicly. Ancestry usernames are slightly obscured.
Whatley descendendants in many cases can search their matches for surname "Whatley" to see if they match people in this tree.
