    3. Curt, Would you please send me the article written by H.H.Whitney in 1950. WRG does not have it up yet. Family Tree DNA says that we are "closely related" and WRG Member Gail Anderson thinks we are both descended from the John Whitney Family of Watertown, as follows: John_1, Thomas_2, Eleazar_3. I have 'plugged-in' to the John Whitney Tree as follows: John_1, Thomas_2, Eleazar_3, Elnathan_4, Aaron_5, Samuel_6: born in Uxbridge, Worcester, Massachusetts on 23 May 1764. From a DNA standpoint, this seems to work out fine (according to Gail Anderson, with whom I think you are in communication), but the children of 'my Samuel' say that he was "born in Vermont" -- so I am still looking! 'My Samuel' appeared in Seneca, Ontario, NY, USA in 1802: His wife is Cynthia Powers (b: 19 Jul 1777 in Springfield, Windsor, Vermont), the daughter of Jarahmeel Powers); he bought land in Seneca, Ontario, NY, USA in 1802 from Peter Powers, the son of Jerahmeel Powers and brother of his wife. That reinforces the 'Vermont connection' -- so I am still looking. My wish is the H.H.Whitney in 1950 showed a 'Samuel with no descendants' who was born in 1770 +/- 7, preferably born in Vermont.
