Notes

Did you see this web page?

Frederick Henry Whitney's parents were John and Silence Miller Whitney (b. 1783) of Boston. (Kibler, 428). [Source: "Our Fathers' Fields" by James Everett Kibler] She was actually Silence (Holbrook)(Whitney)(Houghton) Miller.

Their gravestones say that they died on the same day, 30 Jun 1867. Nevertheless, it seems that he appears in the 1870 census as F. H. Whitney, at Goshen Hill, Union Co., SC. The A. E. Whitney with him seems to be a second wife.
