 Two additional children, one son and one daughter, were added to the Joseph Whitney family while they lived in Java Village. Meanwhile, John Whitney, brother of Joseph Whitney, had taken up a claim “embracing a thousand acres or more” in Section 14, Campton (now Wasco), Kane Co., Illinois; other relatives had likewise settled in Kane and DuPage counties in Illinois. Joseph heard encouraging reports of the opportunities which were open to the settler, and finally, he and a neighbor made a journey to Illinois, and decided this would be the best location in which to rear their families. Upon his return, Joseph set about making arrangements for immigration to the “far west”!{{ref|Aunt-Nancy}}
-On 1 Sep 1837, "our household goods were taken by wagon to Buffalo. Accompanied by Harry Eddy’s family (the Eddys and their five children),{{ref|Eddy-family}} we boarded a steamboat bound for Chicago. Eleven days were spent in the crossing of the [Great] lakes, as the boat (almost unfit for service) was not always running. We experienced a severe storm, and I and many of the other passengers learned the agonies of seasickness!" Their boat made stops at Cleveland, Detroit, Mackinaw, and Milwaukee.  "Our next stop was Chicago. By no means, was it the Chicago of today! Buildings were small frame affairs, and teams almost became mired hauling their loads in the muddy streets."  In Chicago, Joseph hired a team and wagon that was going to Naperville; he "was prevailed upon to take the women and smaller children. He finally agreed. There were eight of us, including the five children, and with the bedding, as well, a fairly large load resulted."  It took two days and required fording the De Plaines River for the family to arrive at a relative's home in Naperville.  On continuing their journey, they learned that the bridge was out at St. Charles, so forded the Fox River at Geneva, IL, and arrived at the home of Joseph's brother, John Whitney, near Campton (now Wasco), IL.{{ref|Aunt-Nancy}}

 In Kane Co., the family “suffered all the hardships and sicknesses common to the early settlers in that region, the low lands and slugish streams giving rise to much malarial trouble”.{{ref|Cole-Nancy-Obit}}
