My Whitney Line

Edit My Whitney Line

I have traced back to Nathan Whitney, but uncertain as to date or place of birth. I would guess about 1735. I do know he was married to Abigail and they had a son, Eleazer, born about 1755 in Halifax, Vermont. Eleazer was married to Martha Crozier in 1784 and they had at least 9 children. My Grandmother was Leona Whitney Pratt the daughter of Mervin and Florence Ingram Whitney. I have a considerable amount of information on Whitneys in this area going back to Nathan, but thats where the trail has ended for me.
