Hello Susan, I am very interested in these two brothers. Several months ago I viewed the military pension file of Andrew D. Whitney at the National Archives in Washington, DC. I am very interested in the migration of Whitney families from Maine in the 1800's. Andrew was one of at least six children of Samuel L. Whitney and Delinda Howard of Phillips, Maine. I also viewed the pension record for Andrew's brother, Bernard King Whitney. I did not find a record for Jacob. Andrew D. Whitney moved with his parents and siblings to Bloomer, Chippewa Co., Wisconsin. He enlisted in the service there in 1862, and was discharged in 1865. After the war he lived at Tomah, then Bloomer, WI, then moved to Mayer, Yavapai Co., Arizona, then Prescott, Arizona, then about 1925, moved to Ashland, Oregon. His second wife is listed as Lucy E. Whitney, and I don't think they had any children. His first wife, by whom he had two children, was Miranda Bates. They were married in Dalton, Sauk Co., WI 28 Sept 1865. Their 2 children were: Julia Whitney, born 11 May 1857, place unknown Edwin Whitney, born 8 January 1859, place unknown. Julia must have married someone whose last name was Cholan, for in her request for burial expenses for her father, she is listed as Julia Cholan, 66 Second St., Ashland, Jackson Co., Oregon. Andrew died 12 August 1929 in Ashland. His first wife, Miranda, died in Wysenia, WI 2 Feb 1867. I know nothing of Jacob, other than he moved to Wisconsin with the family from Maine, then moved on to Arizona. I have plenty of info on brother Bernard, but it probably won't help with your ranch project, since he did not go to Arizona. I would like to have any information you could provide about these brothers. And good luck with your history. Ken Whitney Silver Spring, MD
