Shared note

!BIR-MARR: Westminster vital records; marriage intent in Princeton, 30 Sep 1791. Death record in VR's says died aged 99y., 7m., 9d.

RW Notes: He was also known as Dea. David Whitney. He "enjoyed a life of uninterrupted health, having never had occasion to call medical attendance since he was ten years old, at which time his life was despaired of, but was apparently saved by the skill of a camp doctor [Hessian - see his father's notes], then stationed at Rutland, MA, as prisoner of war, his attendance being suggested by other Dutch [Deutsch - Hessian] prisoners then boarding at his father's house. Being eight years old when the revolutionary war broke out, he remembered and would relate many incidents of those times. He was able to perform light work till within two or three years of his death." He resided between 1767 and 1867 at Westminster, Worcester, MA; in the same house he was born in, on the same farm where his father settled in 1752.
