History ~ Whitingham

On the seventh day of January, 1767, a petition was presented to the lieutenant governor of New York by Nathan Whiting and twelve others for the grant of a township covering a portion of the territory then known as Cumberland.

After much delay and a re-petition on March 12, 1770, the final grantees were seven British soldiers, Colonel Whiting and six others, who recieved the grant as a reward for their fidelity in the King's service. The township, 36 square miles, thus granted and chartered was named Whitingham. The first census in 1771 reported a population of 14, increasing to 1,177 in 1900 and after some decline increased again to the 1,177 in 1990.

Lake Whitingham stretches nearly eight miles long through the town that shares its name. In 1770, the Town of Whitingham was granted to Nathan Whiting and some other men who served as soldiers of the King. The town consists of two villages, Jacksonville and Whitingham.

I have a sketch of my father's (Soloman Mack) life, written by himself, in which is detailed an account of his several campaigns, and many of his adventures while in the army. From this, I extract the following:
"At the age of twenty-one years, I left my master. Shortly after which I enlisted in the services of my country under the command of Captain Henry, and was annexed to the regiment commanded by Col. Whiting.

Descendants of William Whiting
28. COL. NATHAN5 WHITING (SAMUEL4, JOHN3, WILLIAM2, JOHN1)66,67 was born 4 May 1724 in Windham, CT, and died 9 Apr 1771 in New Haven, CT. He married MARY SALTONSTALL 12 Jul 1750 in New Haven, CT, daughter of ROSWELL SALTONSTALL and MARY HAYNES. She was born May 1728 in Branford, CT, and died 1771 in (Information on Mary's parents extracted from "Genealogical Notes" by Nathaniel Goodwin pg 336).

Notes for COL. NATHAN WHITING:
The youngest child born of Samuel & Elizabeth, Nathan was born in Windham CT in May 1724 and graduated from Yale College in 1743. Much like his two brothers Nathan served in the defense of the colonies and rose to the rank of Colonel.

Nathan moved to New Milford, CT where he resided for most of his life and entered military life shortly after graduating from Yale. Extracts taken from the book "Two Centuries of New Milford 1707-1907" gives a little insight into Nathan and his township. "New Milford was, during most of these first fifty years of its existence, a frontier town, a line of guards was established which reached across the country from Woodbury to the New York boundary, and the members of the company had to take turns in patrolling this line. The second company in New Milford was organized in 1744, and both of these companies continued to exist until the Revolution." In 1744 Nathan commanded the Eleventh Company of the Second Regiment in which they responded to a military crises outside New Milford. The first recorded service of the New Milford men beyond their own borders occurred about 1758. The greatest accumulation of men found on the record is a company raised for the French and Indian War in 1759. It was commanded by Captain Whiting and was known as the "Tenth Company of Colonel David Wooster's Third Regiment of Connecticut Levy." Shortly after this excursion, Nathan was elected as a Colonel of the Second Regiment and saw action outside New Milford in 1759 and 1761.

Nathan married Mary Saltonstall in New Haven CT on July 12, 1750. Mary was the daughter of CPT. Roswell Saltonstall, of Branford, Connecticut. Her mother, Mary Haynes, (widow of Elisha Lord,) was the granddaughter of Gov. John Haynes of Hartford. During their 21 years of marriage, Nathan & Mary resided in New Milford and had nine children. Three of those children died as infants. There are conflicting dates concerning their daughter Mary. Majority of the records reviewed has her death listed either in 1761 or 1781, yet she married Elisha Hale in 1782. It is believed Nathan's mother, Elizabeth, moved into their household sometime around 1761/62 and lived with them until her death. After Nathan's death, it is believed Mrs. Mary (Saltonstall) Whiting married Rev. Warham Williams, of Northford, CT., but various records has her death listed for 1771.
