Latest revision as of 17:10, 23 June 2017

George7 Whitney (Jacob6, Ebenezer5, Amos4, Nathaniel3, Benjamin2, John1), son of Jacob6 and Abigail (Moses) Whitney, was born 25 Feb 1817, Buxton, ME,[1] and died 29 Mar 1890, Buxton, ME.[2]

He married, say 1842, Hannah -----. She was born Sep 1817, ME.

George was a farmer. He is found in the censuses of 1850 through 1880 in Buxton, ME. In 1860, Phoebe Fields, age 70, resided with them. She is possibly the mother of Hannah.

Children of George7 and Hannah (-----) Whitney:

i. Arzilla8 Whitney, b. 3 Dec 1843, Buxton, ME;[3] m. 25 May 1871, Buxton, ME, Fred D. Scammon of Buxton, ME.[4]
ii. Mary Ellen Whitney, b. 15 Feb 1846, Buxton, ME.[5]
iii. Emily Jane Whitney, b. 27 Feb 1848, Buxton, ME;[6] d. 18 May 1866, Buxton, ME.[7]
iv. Luzetta Whitney, b. 31 Mar 1851, Buxton, ME;[8] d. 15 Sep 1852, Buxton, ME.[9]
v. George W. Whitney, b. 26 Dec 1854, Buxton, ME;[10] d. 7 May 1873, Buxton, ME.[11]
vi. Walter Whitney, b. ca. 1856, prob. Buxton, ME. It seems likely that he is identical to the George W. Whitney above, and his age is understated in the 1870 census.

Notes

The record of the births of their children call George the son of Eben, but that seems wrong, and that he was brother of Eben and son of Jacob.
