[p. 4]

Lieutenant Tom Whitney, of Claverack.  He deeded property to his father in
     Connecticut about this time.  After this he went to Nobletown, near
     North Hilsdale, Columbia co., N.Y., where he, with others, bought land
     claims of Massachusetts, in New York, and settled on the Manor Estate
     of Robert Livingston (of Rev. War fame).  He took an active part under
     the leadership of Robert Noble in the attempt to make good these
     claims.  A sheriff's posse was sent to arrest him and others, and a
     collision occurred near the home of Robert Noble (and probably Whitney's)
     and shooting was done by both sides.  Cornelius Ten Broeck, a deputy,
     and Thomas Whitney were killed.  Whitney was buried near North Hilsdale
     in a cemetery provided by the Patroon, Van Rensselaer.  The widow went

     b. March 18, 1780 (m. Col. Moses Hopkins and died in 1872 in Cortland),

     born May 5, 1751. (10)WILLIAM, and Thomas, who went to Norwalk and died

     the Albany county militia, Joshua as Captain and William as a private.
     These brothers, with a friend, possibly a relative, removed to Broome
     county, New York, in the spring of 1787, settling in what afterward became

                                                                and first
     the city of Binghamton.  They were the second part of settlers ^ to
     come in wagons.  John Whitney, their brother, also came to Binghamton
     and lived at or near Chenango Forks, near his brother William, until
     1812, when he removed to Rochester, N.Y.  Further history unknown.
(10) WILLIAM WHITNEY (Thomas-William-William-Joshua-John), was a private in
     the Revolution in Albany Co., N.Y., State Militia, was appointed Ensign
     Columbia Co., in 1786, Lieutenant same year, Captain of Light Infantry
     of Tioga Co., in 1792, Major in 1793, Lieut. Col., in 1802, Brigadier General
     in 1804 and resigned in 1808.  He died Jan. 18, 1810.  He, with his brother,
     came to Binghamton from Hillsdale, Columbia Co., N.Y.
     Gen. William married, possibly Mary Rose or Rosenberry, and had children,
     (11) JOHN R., Rhoda, Sarah and three more daughters.
(11) JOHN R. WHITNEY, only son of Gen. William, was born in 1786, at Hillsdale, N.Y.
     He was a soldier in the War of 1812.  He married, 1st, Catherine Schoonover,
     2nd, Sallie Spencer.  His children by the first marriage were,
     (12)William W., b. March 9, 1807. (13)John R., Jr., b. Oct. 12, 1808. ###(14)Hi-
     ram, b. May 24, 1812. (15)Rachel, b. 1813. (16)Calvin, b. May 30, 1815. (17)Josh-

     b. Feb. 7, 1823.  There were probably two or three more who died in infancy.
     Another, Hannah, has been credited to this family, but the date of her
     birth is only sixteen or seventeen years later than that of John R.,
     which makes it improbable (but not impossible) that she was
     a member of this family.  By the second marriage the children were,
     Calista, Elydia, Climena, Rosa, Ambrosia, and Rhoda
     who died young, and Rosena, who died in 1867, at the age of nineteen.
     Those who grew to maturity were (20)Mary. (21)Lucretia, b. Jan. 1834.
     (22)Elisha Spencer, b. May 24, 1836, in Camden. (23)Warren Wilson and
                                   probably in York, Medina Co., O.

     b. in Rochester, Lorain Co., Ohio, July 16, 1842.
     John R. Whitney moved to Camden township, Lorain county, Ohio, in 1836, but
     must have lived in Rochester, same county, in 1842.  In 1850 he received
     a deed of twenty five acres of land in the east part of Camden, and

     of which now constitutes the village of Kipton.  When the "Toledo, Nor-
     walk and Cleveland" railroad (now the New York Central) was built
     through Camden, in 1852, and a village would come into being, Mr. Whitney
     laid out a village (the part of Kipton west of the main highway) and
     named in "Binghamton", from his native town.  However, the name never
     appeared except upon the record of deeds, for some reason, and the
     village was dubbed "Kipton".
     Mr. Whitney's wife died April 3, 1870, having been born in England in
     1808.  Mr. Whitney died Nov. 15, 1872.  They had children, (26)Catherine, b.

     father, and his history will appear later.  They had children, ^ Henry,
     Frankie, Ella, Rhoda A., and John.  Frankie married John H. Scott, of Kipton,
     and has sons Morris and Charles Hardy Scott.  Ella Hardy married Ed.

(1e) HANNAH WHITNEY.  There is no certainty concerning the name of her
     father.  Some have thought she was a daughter of John R., but less
     than seventeen years was between their ages.  Again, William W. Cook
     used to speak of her as his great aunt, which, if true, would make her
     a daughter of Lieut. Tom Whitney of Claverack, but this is impossible,
     for he was killed in 1776 and she ws born in 1802.  Her identity
     may be established by some future historian.  She was born Dec. 13,
     1802 and died April 13, 1842.  She married John Farmer July 23, 1818
     and live, presumably, in Binghamton, as Mr. Farmer, with his second

     Harold, Susan and Fay.

     Note: Quite a number of the descendants of General William Whitney
     were given his name, making it appear that his memory was revered.
     The fact that Hannah (Whitney) Farmer named one of her sons William
----
[p. 28]

     Whitney Farmer and her daughter Elizabeth name a son William Whitney
     Warren leads one to believe that Hannah Whitney Farmer must have been
     a near relative of William Whitney.
