Ephraim6 Whitney (Amos5, Amos4, Nathaniel3, Benjamin2, John1), son of Amos5 and Anna (Weston) Whitney, was born 1780, Buxton, ME, and died after 1850, OH.

She and Ephraim moved to Ohio with her brother Aquilla Moffat, Jr. The Ephraim Whitney household is next door to the Aquilla Moffat household in the 1820 census of Bohman, Tuscawaras Co., OH. Kesiah's father was Aquilla Moffat, Sr., born in Sturbridge, Worcester Co., MA, 18 May 1740. He lived in Brimfield, MA, with two of his brothers about 1760, when he served in the King's colonial army in the French & Indian War; was living in Loudon, NH, area c1769-1796; was town constable 1779-1781; in 1790 census of Loudon.
