    William Henry Whitmore
    J. Munsell, 1868 - Reference - 287 pages

    Memoir of the Life and Character of Mrs. Mary Anna Boardman, with an Historical Account of Her Forefathers, and Biographical and Genealogic.al Notices of many of her kindred and relatives. By her son-in-law John Frederick Schroeder, D. D. Printed for Private Distribution. New Haven: 1849. 8vo. pp. 478.
    This elaborate biography enters largely into the genealogy of several families from which Mrs. Boardman wa3 descended. Her paternal and maternal ancestors are thus given by Rev. Dr. Schroeder: "Her father was Dr. William Whiting of Hartford, who was the son of Col. William Whiting of Bozrah, who was the son of the Rev. Samuel Whiting of Windham, who was the son of the Rev. John Whiting of Hartford, who was the son of the Hon. William Whiting of Hartford. Her mother was Anna Mason of Franklin, who was the daughter of Jeremiah Mason of Franklin, who was the son of Rev. Daniel Mason of Lebanon, who was the son of Daniel Mason of Stonington, who was the son of Maj. Gen. John Mason of Windsor." Pp. 14-35 are devoted to an account of Maj. John Mason, the hero of the Pequot war and some of his descendants; and pp. 35-75 give a biographical sketch of William Whiting one of the founders of Hartford, Conn., and his descendants. In the Appeudix a fuller genealogy of the Mason family is given, pp. 365 - 71; and of the Whiting family, pp. 372- 80 ; while a genealogical account of the Boardman family fills pp. 388-415. Fifty eight pages are devoted to a full and well prepared index. The book is elegantly printed and has a fine portrait of Mrs. Boardman. A more extensive genealogy of the descendants of Major John Mason, prepared by Hon. Reuben II. Walworth, formerly chancellor of New York state, is printed in the New England Historical and Genealogical Register, vol. xv, pp. 117, 217, 318 ; and another Whiting family, descended from Rev. Samuel Whiting of Lynn, a native of Boston, Eng., of which place his father, John Whiting, was mayor in 1600 and in 1608, is well displayed in a tabular pedigree in Drake's History of Boston, p. 363. To the latter family belongs William Whiting, Esq., of Roxbury, Mass., an eloquent advocate, who formerly filled the office of President of the New England Historic-Genealogical Society. One of the most distinguished descendants of Major Mason, was Hon. Jeremiah Mason, the eminent jurist, who was born April 27, 1768, graduated at Yale College, 1788, was United States Senator from New Hampshire 181317, and died Oct. 4, 1848.

    William married Mason, Anna on 27 Sep 1759 in Norwich, New London, Connecticut, United States. Anna (daughter of Mason, Jeremiah and Clark, Mary) was born on 3 Mar 1738 in Norwich, New London, Connecticut, United States; died on 13 Nov 1821 in Great Barrington, Berkshire, Massachusetts, United States.
