First son of Joshua and Sarah (Kinsman) Whitney, lived one year, 8 months.
Before 1947, the land where he lived was called Old Philadelphia, and was in Goshen. A large land annexation of over 16,000 acres changed all that, and Oliver Whitney's Goshen farm changed its location from the town of Goshen in Addison Co, to Rochester, Windsor Co.
His father was the 2nd of 3 generations to run this farm, beginning Oliver, Joshua, and Sidney Whitney. The sons had typical contracts, where they looked after their parents in their old age in exchange for the family farm.
