Whitney Family Groups

There are three large Whitney families in the U.S.A., descended from:

John¹ Whitney of London, England and Watertown, Massachusetts;

Henry¹ Whitney of Southold, Huntington, and Jamaica, Long Island, New York, and Norwalk, Connecticut;

Samuel¹ Whitney of Bermuda (ca. 1615 - 1674) and his descendants in the American South.

There are many other unconnected Whitney families in England, Ireland, the U.S.A., Canada, and elsewhere whose connections to these large family groups are unknown.
