Andrew J.7 Whitney (Orange6, Daniel5, Daniel4, Jonathan3, Jonathan2, John1), son of Orange6 and Esther (Walbridge) Whitney, was born 27 Dec 1831, Potsdam, NY, and died 23 May 1904, Ronald, MI.

He married, 23 Dec 1858, Portage Co., OH, Sarah J. Lemmerman, daughter of ----- and Catherine (-----) Lemmerman. She was born 12 Jan 1836, OH, and died 23 Oct 1919, Ronald, MI.

There are sources that conflict regarding the year that Andrew was born. His death certificate (see Find A Grave Memorial), indicates he was born 27 Dec 1829. However, all census records would indicate that he was born after 1830, probably circa 1832. The 1900 census indicates he was born Dec 1831. For his record, I have used the day and month from his death certificate and 1831 as the year which seems to fit the census records.
