Whitehead was buried in Lot 3416 of Section 73 of Green-Wood Cemetery on 18 Sept. 1849 and was later joined by his brother John B. Cornell (FAG #86515937) and two of John's sons (Green-Wood search site).

Whitehead appears in the 1902 "Genealogy of the Cornell Family" with a full birthdate and was surely the one who was a "house smith" and died at age 31 of consumption in Sept. 1849 (1850 US Census Mortality Schedule). A NY Evening Post obit (Sept. 19, 1849) said he died Sept. 17, 1849 at age 30.

His wife was Charity Miller who was a widow living with her children in New York City in 1850, 1860, 1870 and 1880. (US Censuses)

Charity was mentioned in the will of her brother-in-law, John B. Cornell, who provided her support after the early death of her husband.

Whitehead and Charity had three children: Florinda, Ann and George W.

Whitehead's parents were Thomas Cornell and Hannah Hewlett.
His grandparents were Whitehead Cornell and Abigail Hicks.
His great-grandparents were Thomas Cornell (Jr.) and Helena Whitehead.
