Notes
His wife is named as "Reboiney" in William's birth record and Annie's death record, but "Lavinia" in William's death record.
Daniel Whitney above may or may not be identical with Daniel T. Whitney, b. St. John, NB, who was living in Boston 1882-1890. If they are the same, as seems likely, then his second wife was Isabella Campbell, and his parents were James and Mary (-----) Whitney.
