      Corp. John Wesley Whipple, a Civil War veteran, was b. 5 Feb. 1832 in Burns, Allegany, NY and d. 4 Dec 1904 in Morris, Stevens, MN where he is bur. in the Summit Cemetery.with his wife Mary A. {131189}, 1834-5 Oct 1897.  Mary A.and John were mar. before the June 1860 census was taken.  John enlisted on 25 Aug 1862 in Burns, Allegany, NY and was discharged on 7 March 1863 because of disability. (src: Find A Grave)

      John Wesley Whipple, son of Joseph Whipple {4545} and Mary Doren {4552}, was b. 10 Oct. 1833 in Burns, Allegany, NY.  He enlisted in Aug 1862 and was discharged because of disability in March 1863.  (src: New York, Town Clerks Registers of Men Who Served in the Civil War, 1861-1865)

      It would appear that [the above Johns are the same person--] prob. John William Whipple {7381} of Burns, Allegany, NY.  I can't account for the discrepancy in birth dates between Find a Grave and the Civil War Register.
