I propose we do a merge with Abner Whitney. I am sorry as I was listing my family I put in my 5th gr grandparent (Abner Whitney) I wrote the wrong date and did not see that you had Abner Whitney already listed. Can you help to please merge these and I can add the family members to the rest of the family.
Thank you Lori
