John5 Whitney (John4, Joseph3, John2, John1), son of John4 and Sarah (Cutting) Whitney, was born 22 Jun 1714, Weston, MA,[1] and died after 20 Aug 1764, when he was mentioned in the estate of his father-in-law.

Marriage intentions were published 30 Jan 1736/7, Weston, MA, for him "of Weston" and Bethia Cutter "of Watertown".[2] He married, 6 Oct 1737, Watertown, MA, Bethia Cutter,[3] daughter of Ephraim and Deborah (Stone) Cutter. She was born 9 Jul 1713, Watertown, MA, and died after 20 Aug 1764.

There is confusion about which John Whitney married Bethia Cutter. Since she was born in 1713, the John Whitney born in 1714 would be the most appropriate age for her.

John Whitney, Jun., was admitted a church member 25 Jul 1736, Weston, MA.[4]

On 20 Aug 1764, Jonathan Clap of Dorchester and Deborah his wife, and John Whitney of Framingham and Bethiah his wife, petitioned the Worcester County probate court. Deborah and Bethiah were heirs of Ephraim Cutter, late of Brookfield, who died 5 Feb 1758. His son Ephraim Cutter had entered into his estate without any settlement, and the petitioners asked for relief.[5]
