From: janetlk -at- mail.dreamscape.com (Janet L Kral) Subject: Unidentified subject! Date: Wed, 8 May 2002 16:00:13 -0400 While poking around I found what I think may be an error in the records: There is an Amos and Persis Whitney who seem to be duplicated in two generatons. I don't know if this is listed in the recent error list (can't find my copy right now). See below. Esther (Hester) Brintnal? and James Marverick are my 7 g grandparents. She after married Benjamin Whitney (a 1C8R to me) b abt 1865 s/o Benjamin and Jane. On my direct Whitney line, I recieved an answer a while back (had to replace my computer and lost my emails so if this is a repeat I'm sorry.) Here is my confusion. It deals with Mary or Molly or Polly who married Jonathan Upham 5/19/1787/89. ****** info: "From: ValSmithwick -at- aol.com Found these as I was searching for something else ...
