Your Lineage
Aaron:
I think I found your grandfather Dewayne C. Whitney on the 1930 census. He was born about 1915 in Wisconsin. His parents were "Floyd F." Whitney, born about 1888 in Illinois, a farmer, and his wife Victoria C., born about 1890 in Wisconsin. The children in the family were Elmer W., Dewayne C., Lucile I., Gertrude L., Arland G., John W., and Loraine C., all born in Wisconsin. They were living in Arland Township, Barron County, Wisconsin.
Is this the right family?

Victoria Robarge
If this is your family, I believe this is your great grandmother's lineage:

and here's a pedigree for your uncle Elmer:

You are right on the money!!! That was a ton of info very fast. THANK YOU!
John Henry Whitney
Floyd's father was John Henry Whitney, according to the 1900 census, born Sep 1849 in Nebraska. His wife was Cecelia, b. April 1853 in Wisconsin. John Henry was listed as a Painter.
John Whitney
I just found John & Cecelia Whitney on the 1880 census. Living with them was his mother, Adeline Whitney. This should allow me to trace him back further... hang tight...

I just found this note in the pierce project.
4419. JOHN HENRY WHITNEY (George P., William C., Joshua, Daniel, Benjamin, John, John), b. Oxford. Me., Oct. 16, 1851; m. Apr. 30, 1890 Lulu F. GOHLER; b., May 7, 1864; res. 26 Lisbon St. Lewiston, Me. s.p.
John Henry seems to be the thorn in my side. I think HE is the real turnip.

I suspect I am going to have to do the DNA thing to be sure. I charted out from there on tribalpages and it all seems to work. Gramps says it goes along with what he can remember hearing over the years. Short of spending a summer going back to actual places for verification.. I guess DNA would be the next logical step.

I am chasing my own tail now.. I need bullet points of what I am looking for. Focus lost.. need direction.
Gave my grandfather everything I had put together so far today on his 93rd birthday. He was very pleased. Now I just hope it was right....
Per conversation with Grandpa.
