Have you tried doing a search on the Oneida County Genweb site? They have many cemetery records.

I am a descendant of John Whitney and his wife Hephzibah Olmstead through their son Samuel. In the Whitney book it states that John Whitney was born in Ridgefield, CT 1/28/1717, married his first wife Hephzibah Olmstead 6/15/1746 in Ridgefield, CT, that Hephzibah died in Ridgefield, CT 5/20/1753 and that he married Thankful Benedict who was born 6/12/1727. The book says on page 26 that John is known to have visited his son Samuel in . Paris now Kirkland, Oneida Co, NY about 1797 when he was 80 years old. It also says that neither the place nor date of his death nor information about Thankful Benedict is known nor burial places for John or either of his wives. It says that he lived the latter part of his life with his son Ezra, son of Thankful at or near Johnstown. The book states that Thankful Benedict died before John. It occurred to me that John and Thankful might be buried at or near Johnstown or South Salem or Salem where Elizabeth and Benjamin, siblings of Ezra resided. It also might be that John, etc are buried in Ridgefield, CT where I guessing Hephzibah might be buried. If anyone has some thoughts, information regarding this e-mail I would be most glad of the help, etc. Hope all of you have a nice weekend. Susan DeHart --part1_81.c77a0ae.2de0685a_boundary--
