"An Interesting Occasion", NEHGR, vol. X, (1856), pp. 66.

:An event which few men see, was celebrated at the Cataract House, Niagara Falls, on Wednesday evening last. It was the celebration of the fiftieth anniversary of the marriage of Gen. Parkhurst Whitney and wife. For fifty years had this couple stemmed life's vicissitudes, and on this occasion the numerous friends and kindred of this remarkable couple gathered in social communion to bestow congratulations, and renew the recollections of early days. The ceremonies of the "Golden Wedding," were touching and imposing, and were conducted by Rev. E. W. Reynolds of this city. Gen. Whitney emigrated to this country with his wife 45 years ago, and they have well earned that health and happiness which is with them in their old age. That it may remain with them for many years to come is the wish of all. -- Buffalo Commercial, 17 Oct. 1855.

"Notices of Publications", NEHGR, vol. X, (1856), pp. 191.

:The Christian Mother. An Address, delivered in the First Church, Brighton, Feb. 14, 1855, at the Funeral of Mrs. Susanna (Park) Champney, who died Feb. 10, in her 95th year. With an Appendix, containing a Genealogical Notice of the Champney and Park Families. By Frederic Augustus Whitney, Pastor of the Church. Boston : 1855. 8vo. pp.36

:We have here an excellent Sermon, or rather Address, the first paragraph of which cannot fail to bespeak for the work a careful perusal. As about 24 pages of the Address were devoted to the genealogies mentioned in its title-page, we can give no synopsis of that part of it; but we must do the author the justice to say, we were not prepared to see so large an amount of valuable matter in so few pages; done in good taste, and, so far as we can judge, with accuracy. Mr. Whitney is a Member of the New England Hist. Gen. Society.

:Mrs. Champney was a native of Brighton, was born Oct. 10th, 1760, was the dau. of Thomas and Elizabeth (Harrington) Park, mar. Nathaniel, son of Solomon Champney, 2 Feb 1792. For other facts we must refer our readers to Mr. Whitney's work.
