Neville Ely9 Whitney (Robert Shaw8, Albert Appleton7, Appleton Downer6, Asa5, Joshua4, William3, Joshua2, John1),
Neville was born 23 Oct 1860, in Wellington, Lorain County, Ohio (Alt. birthplace Brighton). Son of Robert Shaw8 and Emily (Hicks) Whitney). He married Sarah Ellen Cornish on 11 Sep 1883 in Chicago, Cook County, Illinois. Neville died on 3 May 1920 in Hazel Crest, Thornton Township, Cook County, Illinois.

"He was a carpenter; resided Burnside Crossing, Cook County, IL, s.p."
Neville worked as a carpenter like many men in his family. He may have held a job with the railroad when he moved with his family to Pullman Village in Chicago. In his later years he took up work as a farmer and grocer in Hazel Crest, a town over from his younger brother Salmon in Homewood.
He and Sarah had no known children. He was known fondly as "Uncle Nev" by his nieces and nephews.
