This family also appears in Phoenix, starting on p. 826:
Horace-9 WHITNEY, b. 14 Jun 1836, Darien, CT, and Lavinia NICHOLS, son of
Charles Edwin-8 WHITNEY, b. 3 Feb 1806, Darien, CT, and Rosanna MATHER,
son of
Josiah-7 WHITNEY, b. 8 Jul 1764, Stamford, CT, and Mary SMITH, son of
Eliasaph-6 WHITNEY, b. 25 Feb 1799, Darien, CT, and Angeline LOUNSBURY,
above.

Apparently the two Arthur's, although nearly the same age, were first cousins
twice removed.

Regards,
