Book excerpt: Excerpt from Some of the Descendants of John and Elinor Whitney, Who Settled in Watertown, Massachusetts, in 1635 This work is a compilation. It. Is the result of long and patient labor and research, much of which has been bestowed by others than the compiler, who claims but. Little originality. His chief labor has been in the preparation of that part of the genealogy beginning with the third generation after John and Elinor Whit ney. For the earlier genealogy, he is greatly indebted to Mr. Henry Austin Whitney, late of Boston, whose contributions to the New England Historical Gene alogical Register, with some alterations and additions, have been closely followed: and many interesting facts in the history of the family have been taken from the rare work, entitled Whitney as a Surname, of which he has made liberal use. This has been done by permission, of which the compiler has freely availed himself, as this volume is for private circula tion, and not for his pecuniary profit. He is further indebted to Mr. D. Williams Patterson, Genealogist, of Newark Valley, New York, who has devoted many years to the study of the Whitney families, and to Dr. Bond, the historian and genealogist. Of Watertown.
