Shared note

A brief note in the "Genealogical Dictionary of Maine and New Hampshire", by Noyes, Libby & David, says of an unidentified Jonathan Whitney "Saco, fort soldier, LIsts 248ab. It MAY refer to this man. Further, in "Maine Families in 1790", a Jonathan Whitney "of Buxton" is identified as the father of a Mary Whitney (see wife's name) who married George W. Whitney of Gorham (the next town over) - STRONGLY suggestive of but not proving her descent from this man.

Gorham VR's, in the notice of the intent 24 Nov 1781, says "of Buxton," and calls the wife-to-be Polly/Polley.
