p. 33, #41: Jonathan3 WHITNEY was born 20 Oct 1659, according to Watertown vital records, volume 1, page 21. The statement about the birthplaces of his children is wrong, since Sarah, Isaac, and Tabitha were born in Sherborn, then Shadrach, Jonathan, Anna, and Amos were born in Watertown, then Zaccheus in Sudbury, and finally Timothy and Daniel in Concord. His will was proved 28 Mar 1735, not 18 Mar 1735, according to Middlesex County Probate Records, File #24691. He died 17 Mar 1735, according to Concord vital records. Also, the order of the children given on pages 33 and 34 is confused.

p. 33, #148: There was no son Jonathan born on that date. Instead, that birthdate applies to Isaac4 WHITNEY, #156 on page 34, according to Sherborn vital records.

p. 33, #149: Anna WARREN married Elisha COX of Weston. Sabinet WARREN should be Submit WARREN.

p. 33, #150: Her son Francis FULHAM, Jr., married Susannah HAMMOND, 4 Dec 1740, Newton, MA. Her second husband George PARKHURST was born 17 Jan 1685/6, not 16 June 1685, Watertown, MA, according to Bond's Watertown, volume 1, page 389. Her daughter Tabitha PARKHURST was born 10 May 1734, Watertown, MA. Her daughter Mary HUNT married Benjamin BARNARD on 22 Feb 1759, Harvard, MA.

p. 33, #155: Anne4 WHITNEY was born 24 May 1702, according to Watertown vital records, volume 2, page 22.
