I did a search on the Whitney Research Group website http://www.whitneygen.org and I believe I found a document there which identifies these two John Whitneys. http://www.whitneygen.org/archives/extracts/holman.html (go there, then search for Pomfret) JOHN6 WHITNEY (Joshua5, Joshua4, Benjamin3, John2, Thomas1), born in Uxbridge, Mass., 7 May 1749, recorded in Medway where he,"son of widow Whitney" was baptised 7 July 1751, died in Pomfret, Chatauqua Co ., N.Y., 21 Jan. 1824. He married in Newton, Mass., 16 Feb. 1768, Molly Cory (or Cary) of Natick, born 25 July 1751, died after the 3 Jan. 1838, probably in Erie Co. Pa. ... Applied for pension, 11 May 1818m in Chatauqua Co., N.Y., aged sixty-eight years. He had a son John, b. 1784, aged 53 in 1837. This family is also outlined by Robert L. Ward in his "Six Generations of the Descendants of John-1 WHITNEY (1592-1673)" at http://www.whitneygen.org/families/johnw/john6g8.html#id2023 Tim -----Original Message----- From: Janet [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Monday, June 13, 2005 4:18 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [WHITNEY-L] 1820 Census Portland, Chautaqua Co., NY Does anyone know anything about the John Whitney and John Whitney, Jr who are on the 1820 census for Portland, Chautaqua Co., NY?
