My Whitney Line Henry1 Whitney, m.(1) ----- ----- John2 Whitney, m. Elizabeth Smith Nathan3 Whitney, m. Sarah Platt Uriah4 Whitney, m.(2) Martha Hart Samuel Platt5 Whitney, m. Lois Buttles Seth6 Whitney, m.(1) Mary Batchelder Emeroy Margaret7 Whitney Great Grandfather / mother Grandfather / mother Father / mother Myself

My GGGrandmother is Emeroy Margaret Whitney 1843-1922). Her father is Seth W(?) Whitney (1812-1875?), m 1Lucinda Tucker and 2Mary Batchelder. His father is Samuel Platt Whitney (1775?-1871), m Lois Buttles His father is Thomas Simmons Whitney (1740-1816), m Martha Hart.

I am looking for a connection between Emeroy and Eli Whitney the inventor, if one exists. If reviewing the dates, Eli and Samuel Platt W might be cousins with a common grandfather. (?) Am looking for assistance in finding the link.
