Family:Whitney, Samuel (?-1751)

Samuel Whitney, parentage and birth unknown, died 27 Nov 1751, Lexington, MA.^[1]

Notes

There was a Samuel⁵ Whitney, son of Elnathan⁴ and Sarah (Perry) Whitney, who died 28 Dec 1751, Waltham, MA, exactly a month and a day after the above date, and in an adjoining town. One might guess that two death records refer to the same event. There doesn't seem to be any other known descendant of John¹ Whitney to whom this record might belong. There is no other known information to either support or refute this guess.
