Samuel4 Whitney ((perhaps) Samuel3, Samuel2, Samuel1), perhaps son of Samuel3 and Elizabeth (-----) Whitney, was born say 1710 and died 1782, Saint George's Tribe, Bermuda. He was buried 1782.

He married, before 1758, Ruth -----.[1]

Note: A Samuel Whitney, widower of St. George's Tribe, married, 15 Feb 1783, Rebecca Roberts, widow.[2] It is not certain if this is this Samuel or not, as the date conflicts with the death date. If it is not this Samuel, there may be yet another Samuel Whitney in St. George's Tribe.

In 1777, Samuel Whitney was a witness in St David's Island, St Georges Tribe.

Children of Samuel4 and Ruth (-----) Whitney:

i. (perhaps) Samuel5 Whitney, b. ca. 1750.
ii. John Whitney, bp. 31 Dec 1758.[3]
iii. Joseph Whitney, bp. 1 Jan 1759.[4]
