Whitney family

1/17/2014 at 3:36 PM

I am a Whitney descendant. I noticed that there was a Whitney family on the Elizabeth and Ann, 1634, and wondered if they were my ancestors and more interestingly, the ancestors of Sarah Ann Smith one of Joseph Smith's wives and the daughter of Bishop Newell Whitney, an early Mormon leader, and wife and mother of seven children of another Mormon leader, Heber Kimball.

Whitney line is one of my lines, also.

I have a lot of material on Bishop Newell Whitney.

one of mine, too!

only thing, I can really criticize at all is that Elinor Whitney is still listed and linked as being a BRAY, although, that is no where proven.
And the dubious connections of Sir Thomas Whiney Gent... to parents, also not yet proven or widely or mildly, supported.
Mary Bray (in my line) married to Sir Thomas Whitney Gent... is, however, a proven BRAY Descendant.

Phyllis (Wheeler) Dean - let me know if you need any assistance. Remember you should start at you and work up until you find profiles that exist already on the Geni World Family Tree and then just attach your branch there.

No need to duplicate what already exists in Geni. If you have additions such as corrections or sources or images to add, that's always good.
