Notes

NOTE: HER MAIDEN SURNAME IS IN DOUBT. "POOR" IS USED HERE AS A PLACEHOLDER. LITTLE IS KNOW OF JANE ----.

(1) Whitney Research Group.

- Benjamin WHITNEY "married firstly, circa 1668, York, ME, Jane -----. Her parentage and birth are unknown. She died on 14 Nov 1690, Sherborn, MA."
- "The marriage occurred before the birth of their oldest child. That it may have been in York, Maine, is a reasonable guess, but only a guess. Her given name is revealed in the birth record of two of her children, and her death record. The suggestion that her maiden name was POOR is not substantiated by any credible evidence."

(2) Massachusetts, U.S., Town and Vital Records via Ancestry.com; Sherborn Deaths

"WHITNEY... Jane, w. of Benjamin, Nov. 14, 1690."
