Asa8 Whitney (Jonathan7, Jonathan6, Joseph5, Benjamin4, Joseph3, John2, John1), son of Jonathan7 and Lucy (Parks) Whitney, was born about 1802, Watertown, MA, and died after 1860.
He married, 15 Nov 1825, Rhoda Blaisdell, daughter of John Drew and Olive (Horsum) Blaisdell. She was born 15 Dec 1806, Jay, ME, and died 11 Mar 1889, Auburn, ME. She married secondly, 9 May 1869, Auburn, ME, Sanders Macomber, as his second wife. He was born 7 Oct 1797, Marshfield, MA, son of William and Sarah (Hatch) Macomber.
Children of Asa8 and Rhoda (Blaisdell) Whitney (probably incomplete):
i. Mary Elizabeth9 Whitney, b. 22 Apr 1827, Jay, ME. ii. (daughter) Whitney, b. 1830-1835; deduced from 1840 Census. iii. Jedediah W. Whitney, b. 22 Apr 1835, Jay, ME; m. Angeline Huntoon. iv. (son) Whitney, b. 1835-1840. There was a Samuel, age 13, in Weld, ME, in 1850, who might be this son. v. Jesse Coolidge Whitney, b. 6 May 1841, Jay, ME; m. Paulina G. Farmer. vi. Francis C. Whitney, b. 7 Dec 1847, Jay, ME; m. Cynthia Ann (Tribble) Whitney. vii. (poss. adopted) George Washington Whitney, b. ca. 1853, Readfield, ME; m. Clara Lillian Sturtevant.
Notes
The absence of Asa and Rhoda from the 1850 census of Maine is perplexing. Several (possibly all) of their children were living with other families, yet they reappear in 1860. Possibly they were working in Hopkinton, MA, at that time.
