Whitney Family Groups > Medieval Whitney Families > Whitneys of Clifford
Origin
This family originated with John Whitney of Gorsington, whose son inherited Clifford through his marriage.[1] Although John's parentage is not conclusively known, we do know that "this Branch bore the same Arms as Whitney of Whitney, with a Crescent for Difference",[2] so it is almost certain that they descended from a younger son of the Whitneys of Whitney. In addition, according to heraldic cadency, a crescent was traditionally used to differentiate the arms of the second son from those of his elder brother.[3] Robert Whitney of Whitney had a second son named John who was just about the correct age to be the same as John Whitney of Gorsington.
