      Descendents of Jesse Whitman supplied by Nieta (Whitman) Pinkerton jcpinkjr@aol.com . She wr ites:
      Much of the information came from a family bible. The "History of St Joseph County" p 711 i s about all the documentation I have seen on the Whitman family. A short description of Joe l Whitman (b 1811) and his family and parents. It says Joel left NY in 1830 and went to Erie , PA where he married Artemisia Hewitt.. The rest of the Whitman line came from a Donald R W illiams, an author in Glouerville, NY, who wrote a book about Oliver H. Whitman, an adirondac k guide, son of Oliver Wesley Whitman who kept a journal of the family in the West hill coun try near Wells, NY. They are descendents of Zebulon W. (b. 1789). Isaiah (1801-1874) and Sa rah, his wife are buried in the Wells, NY, cemetery. There is another Whitman cemetery nea r there.
