Wiley and family moved to Jay, Florida from Butler County, Alabama in 1922, then to Robertsdale, Baldwin County, Alabama in 1928. When he went to Florida, he leased his house to the Williams Family. Hank Williams, Sr., the country music superstar, was born there 17 Sept 1923. This house was originally built by Wiley's parents, Sheldrake and Laney Kendrick. This was a large double-pen log house, three rooms on each side of a wide breezeway, known as "The Old Kendrick Place."
