William Whitney (John), son of John and Ann (Jones) Whitney, baptized 27 Aug 1814, Glasbury, Breconshire, Wales.[1]
He married, circa 1845, Mary -----. She was born circa 1823, Glasbury, Breconshire, Wales.
In 1851 he was listed as a miller in Aberllunvey. In 1861, his widowed wife Mary was listed as a miller, residing in the mill house in Aberllunvey, and the family enumerated just after them was listed as an innkeeper residing at Three Cocks.
Description of Aberllynfi:
- ABERLLUNVEY, (Aberllynfi), a parish in the hundred of Talgarth, and union of Hay, in the county of Brecon, South Wales, 4 miles S.W. of Hay. It is situated at the confluence of the Llunvey and the Wye. The parish is united with Glasbury, and is commonly considered a hamlet or chapelry thereto. There is no church. The inhabitants marry and bury at Glasbury, but they pay no church-rates. No tithes have been paid here within the memory of man. An old yew-tree tells where once a church stood, and persons lately living could recollect tombstones. The ground is now covered with fir-trees. Aberllunvey is on the south bank of the Wye, and in the midst of scenery beautiful and diversified.
Note that Three Cocks is located within Aberllynfi Parish.
Children of William and Mary (-----) Whitney:
i. (probably) William Whitney, b. ca. 1846, Aberllunvey, Breconshire, Wales. There is some doubt that he was a son of this couple.

Lewis Whitney, b. ca. 1849, Aberllunvey, Breconshire, Wales. iii. George Whitney, b. ca. 1854, Aberllunvey, Breconshire, Wales. iv. Ann Whitney, b. ca. 1857, Aberllunvey, Breconshire, Wales. v.
