FRANK WHITNEY, meat market, Hesperia, was born in this State, May 19, 1858.  
He is a son of Orin and Mary 

E. (Cook) Whitney, natives of Ohio, who  emigrated to Kent County and thence 
to Muskegon County, this 

State.

Mr. Whitney lived at home and assisted his father on the farm, also attending 
school until 1881.  April 

19, of that year, he was married to Miss Addie, daughter of Robert and Anna 
(Hoffman) Robinson, natives 

of Scotland and Ohio respectively, and came to Muskegon County, this State, 
where Addie was born Oct. 6, 

1862, and where she received the advantages of a common-school education.

After his marriage, Mr. Whitney went to farming for himself, in Newfield 
Township, Oceana County, and 

remained in that County until July, 1883, when he came to Hesperia, this 
county, and established a meat 

market, and where, by honest and fair dealing, he has gained the confidence of 
the people and is doing a 

good business.

By their union they have had one child, Annie E., born Sept. 24, 1882.  Mr. 
Whitney is a member of the
