Tennessee, The Volunteer State, 1769-1923, Vol. 3
For fifty-three years William Vance Whitson, Sr., a veteran of the Civil war and prominent attorney of McMinnville, has practiced law in Warren county. He was born in Bedford county, Tennessee, on the 5th of August, 1846, a son of George Newton and Caroline (Smartt) Whitson. His great-grandfather was George Whitson, who was a native of England and served in the American navy during the Revolutionary war. His wife was a Miss McDowell of Scotland. The paternal grandfather, George Whitson, married Priscilla Vance, a daughter of Colonel David Vance, who served in defense of the colonies during the Revolutionary war. George Newton Whitson was born in 1817 and for many years successfully engaged in farming. He was a captain in the commissary department during the Civil war. His demise occurred in 1912 and came as a severe shock to his family and many friends. His wife was born in 1827 and died in 1864. Her father was Frank Smartt, oldest son of the well known general, William C. Smartt.
In the acquirement of his preliminary education William Vance Whitson attended private schools of Marshall county, Tennessee, and after his removal to Gibson county attended the Yorkville Academy. In July, 1867, he located in McMinnville and took up the study of law under the preceptorship of Colonel John Savage. He was admitted to the bar in 1869 and has practiced law in Warren county for some fifty-three years. For forty-five years he has had an extensive and representative clientele in McMinnville. Mr. Whitson has always held to the highest ethics of his profession and well merits the position he has attained among the foremost attorneys of the Tennessee bar. He is held in high confidence and esteem by all. Aside from his profession, Mr. Whitson has had farming interests in the county and state.
In December, 1862, at the age of sixteen years, William Vance Whitson put all personal interests aside and enlisted in the Confederate army at Newborn. He served under Captain James Parker, who organized a company for Dawson's battalion, which later joined Wilson's regiment of Forrest's cavalry. Mr. Whitson participated in many battles and was twice wounded. He was captured while crossing the Obion river on the 4th of May, 1863, and was held prisoner in Chicago until the 14th of March, 1865. At that time he was sent to Richmond, Virginia, and was exchanged on the 21st of that month. At the close of the war Mr. Whitson returned to Gibson county and went to work on his father's farm.
William Vance Whitson has been married three times. His first marriage was celebrated on the 8th of November, 1871, when Miss Jennie Chadick became his wife. She was born in 1848 and died in 1873. On the 14th of October, 1875, he married Miss Rebecca Marford, who was born in 1849 and died in 1892. Mr. Whitson was married the third time in 1893 to Miss Carrie Hancock. He is the father of the following children: George M.; Pauline D., a well known actress; Mrs. Janie Smith, who died leaving a daughter, Elizabeth; William Vance, Jr.; Josiah M.; Rebecca R., who married M. M. Morrison and resides at Earle, Arkansas; Frances, who is the wife of E. B. Allen of Detroit, Michigan; and Margaret, who is the wife of M. L. Waller and resides in Lenoir City, Tennessee; and one child who died in infancy.
Since attaining his majority William Vance Whitson has been a stanch supporter of the democratic party and the principles for which it stands. For several terms he was chairman of the democratic executive committee and for two terms he was mayor of McMinnville, his administration being marked by development and improvement. In 1886 he was elected attorney general for an eight year term and in 1914 he was appointed judge of the county court by ex-Governor Rye. He has met with success in life and no man stands in higher esteem in the community for integrity and sterling worth. His religious faith is that of the Presbyterian church, of which he is a consistent member and along strictly professional lines he holds membership in [p.864] the state and county bar associations. Mr. Whitson has wielded a great influence for good in this community, for he has ever been ambitious for higher and better things for McMinnville and Warren county and has constantly sought to better conditions. He is enjoying the best of health at the age of seventy-six years and is more active than men many years his junior.
