Byington, Rev. Ezra Hoyt, "Necrology of the New England Historic Genealogical Society", NEHGR, vol. XLVII (1893), pp. 226-231.

[pp. 228-231]
:DAVID WILLIAMS PATTERSON, the well-known genealogist, was elected a corresponding member of this Society, Sept. 5, 1855. He died at his home in Newark Valley, Tioga Co., N. Y., on 18th Nov. 1892. ...

:It is somewhat difficult, at the present time, to prepare a full and exact schedule of Mr. Patterson's genealogical work. From the best data available, however, we glean the following:

:The only published works, avowedly his, are:--
:9. The Whitney Family, Connecticut, 1649-1878. Privately printed by the late S. Whitney Phoenix, of New York City. 3 vols. 4to. 916, 898, 826 pp. and pedigrees. Edition 510 copies. The compilation and arrangement of this work was the greatest monument of Mr. Patterson's industry and skill; and he prepared, also, enough more material (especially biographical) to have made another large volume; which, however, Mr. Phoenix did not see fit to publish.
:In Manuscript form, he left many valuable works, most of which are well prepared for printing; among these the principal are:--
:29. Whitney. Three large MSS. apparently ready for publication, viz.:--
:(a) Joshua Whitney and his Descendants. Compiled, 1884-88; dedicated to Abel W., of Adrian, Mich., "whose generosity made possible the studies which opened the way for compiling this genealogy of the W. family of Mass."
:(b) Whitney Family of Massachusetts, -- from John and Elinor, of Watertown, Mass., parents of Joshua above referred to.
:(c) Massachusetts Whitneys. Cortland Co. and Tioga Co., N. Y. Branch.--Descendants of Jonathan.
