John R. Whitney was a soldier in the War of 1812. He was born in Hillsdale, N.Y.

He married 1st, Catherine Schoonover,
children of John and Catherine:
William W., John R., Hiram, Rachel, Calvin, Joshua,
Henry S., Caroline, besides some who died in infancy.

He married, 2nd, Sallie Spencer,
Children of Sallie and John:
Mary, Lucretia, Elisha, Warren W.and Warner S., twins,
Frank R., besides Calista, Elydia, Olimena, Ross,
Ambrosia, who died young, and Rosena,
who died at the age of nineteen.

Of these children we are interested in those who became Camden residents;
William W.,
Hiram,
Calvin,
Joshua,
Henry S.,
Elisha,
Warren and
Warner.
This list shows how Camden might have been pretty well sprinkled with Whitneys. In a like manner the New England states and others were sprinkled with Whitneys, as John Whitney of Watertown had twenty-nine grandsons.

Parents are William Whitney and Ruth (Rodman) Whitney.
