Jonathan5 Whitney (Samuel4, John3, Benjamin2, John1), son of Samuel4 and Lydia (Spooner) Whitney, was born 4 or 21 Dec 1734, Brunswick, ME,[1] and died after 1800.[2] If, as Pierce writes, he died in his 84th year, that would have been between Dec 1817 and Dec 1818.

Marriage banns were published 30 Sep 1761, Brunswick, ME, for him and Mary Henden. Nothing more is known of her.

He was captured by the Indians at New Meadows in Bath when but seventeen years of age. He was also a soldier in the Revolutionary war.
