Jonathan⁶ Whitney (David⁵, Jonathan⁴, Jonathan³, Benjamin², John¹), born Conway, Massachusetts, 13 Mar 1770; married there 13 Jan 1791, Lucy Washburn. He died -----; resided Conway, Massachusetts.

Children of Jonathan⁶ Whitney:

i.	David7 Whitney, born 29 Jan 1803; married Elizabeth S. Granger.
ii.	Orlando Whitney, born 27 Mar 1792; married and went to Texas. I suppose died there. It is supposed that a school teacher by the name of Whitney, who, with her school, was attacked by Indians in Western Texas a number of years ago, and who lost her life in successfully defending her pupils, was a daughter of Orlando, but could get no positive proof.
iii.	Prudence Whitney, born 6 Aug 1796.
iv.	Harriett Whitney, born 20 Jan 1794.
