Hello WRG and Jeff

This is my first message to the group as I am in and out a lot of
the time.
This is the first time I have seen my relative Sumner Whitney, child
of Charles E. Whitney b. Mar 17, 1809 m. Annie ( ? ).
Sumner was b. July 4, 1843 d. Sept 28, 1918 m. August 31, 1870 to
Harriett A. Wyman, daughter of John Wyman & Olive Wiggins, Harriett
was born Nov 29, 1850 d. July 8, 1935.
I have the 8 children of Sumner and Harriet with birth, death and
marriage dates. Also a small amount of other information. Sumner is
my GG Grandfather, and I have been stuck on his father for quite
sometime now.
I have to say your timing is horrible as we leave on vacation Thursday
at noon. I will check my mail all day as much as possible hoping to
hear a reply before we leave. We return on Sept 8th and I will
again try to resume this issue. I'm so excited I almost don't
want to leave.

Regards
Rosemary Naastad
