    HISTORY: (Compiled by Jennie Bird Hill, daughter of Abby Ann Whiting, daughter
    of Edwin and Hannah Whiting- 1919) "About the year 1800, in the
    little town of Lee, Berkshire County, Massachusetts, near the border of New
    York, lived the family of Elisha and Sally Hulett Whiting. Elisha Whiting's
    father was a sea captain and lived in Connecticut. He died when Elisha was
    very young. His mother, not knowing what else to do, bound him to an old
    Quaker, who was very cruel to him, and after a few years, he ran away to
    Massachusetts and worked on a farm with a wheelwright. Here he was married to
    Sally Hulett. They were highly respected, honest, generous and firm in their
    convictions.
    Elisha Whiting followed the trade of wagon and chair maker and did his work
    well. His wife was very gifted in making prose and poetry, a characteristic
    that has been bequeathed to many of the Whiting descendants. To Elisha and
    Sally Whiting, twelve children were born, eight sons and four daughters as
    follows: (1) Charles, (2) William, (3) Edwin, (4) Charles, (5) Katherine
    Louisa, (6) Harriet, (7) Sally Emeline, (8) Chauncey, (9) Almond, (10) Jane,
    (11) Sylvester, and (12) Lewis.
    Edwin Whiting was born September 9, 1809, the third child of this family.
    When he was six years old, his parents moved to Nelson, Portage County, Ohio.
    At that time, it was the western frontier of the U.S.A. but probably the very
    place his father wished to be to get a suitable timber for his trade and for
    support of his large family.
    Edwin Whiting's chance for education was very limited, but they were all
    taught the "3 R's", Readin', Ritin', and Rithmetic, and he wrote an legible
    hand, an extrordinary feat for his time. At an early age, he wrote credible
    verse.
    His early life in the forest, no doubt, accounts for his love of the
    out-of-doors, the beauties of nature, the trees, the flowers, the mountains and
    the desire to hunt.
    One Sunday morning, when but a small boy, he decided to go hunting. He knew
    this was contrary to his parent's teachings, so he tried to draw his gun
    through the cracks between the logs of his bedroom and go unmolested. His gun
    caught and was discharged, inflicting a serious wound in his left arm. This,
    he said, was a lesson to observe the Sabbath Day and to obey his parents.
    He learned the chair making trade from his father and his workmanship was
    considered very good.
    In 1833, when Edwin was twenty-four years old, he married Elizabeth
    Partridge Tillotson, an Ohio girl of French descent. She was a highly educated
    school teacher, quite an accomplishment for those days.
    In 1837, the Gospel was brought to the Whiting family. Edwin and his wife,
    his father and mother and some of his brothers and sisters joined the Church of
    Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. They were baptized by Thomas Marsh in 1838.
    Here, as in the time of Christ and His Apostles, the humble, hard-working class
    of people were the ones to listen and accept the Gospel of truth.
    They were among the early members of our church and soon joined the saints
    in Kirtland, Ohio. It was here that their trials, hardships and persecutions
    began and it took true manhood, womanhood, and faith in God to endure. They
    were forced to leave their new comfortable home, complete with furniture,
    orchards and land in Kirtland, Ohio and took only their clothing and a few
    valued relics and went to Far West, Missouri. By this time, Edwin and
    Elizabeth had four children: William, Helen Amelia, Sarah Elizabeth and Emily
    Jane. They were only in Far West a short time and had just built a new home,
    when the mob, several thousand strong, ordered them out. Every house in the
    village was burned except father Elisha Whiting's, which was spared because he
    was so sick then could not move him.
    We remember of hearing aunt Elizabeth tell how she sat on the pile of
    bedding far into the night with little daughter Jane in her arms. Little Jane
    died soon after from exposure and lack of proper food. Sarah clapped her hands
    at the big bonfire the mob had made with their fences and the select wood from
    her father's chair shop. They were compelled to flee again so they joined the
    saints at Lima in father Morley's branch, where Edwin Whiting acted as
    counselor to brother Morley.
    For Several years, the saints were happily building up the city of Nauvoo,
    and their temple. Here they worshipped God without as much persecution as they
    had experienced at Lima. Edwin was appointed Colonel in the Nauvoo Legion and
    was an active worker at all times for the up-building of His Church.
    Through the advice of those in authority, and for a righteous purpose, he
    entered the law of plural marriage. In the year 1845, he married Almira
    Meacham. The following year, January 27, 1846, he married Mary Elizabeth Cox.
    That same year, he was called on a mission to Pennsylvania and was there at the
    time of the martyrdom of the Prophet Joseph and Hyrum Smith. He woon returned
    home and took up arms with his bretheren to protect his property and the lives
    of his family.
    During the battle of the Crooked River, his brother Charles was killed.
    Still a greater test awaited him, his brothers, Almond, Sylvester, Chauncey and
    Lewis and his sister, Louisa did not feel that Brigham Young should be the
    leader of the Church so they followed a Mr. Cutler and called themselves
    "Cutlerites" and moved up into Clitheral, Minnesota. To this day they hold
    tenaciously to the teachings of the Prophet Joseph Smith. They still
    correspond with the children of Edwin Whiting, and have given us, for temple
    work, an extensive genealogy of the Whiting family.
    Edwin Whiting, his families, his father and mother stayed with the saints,
    who were compelled to move west as far as Mt. Pisgah, (now known as Talmadge)
    Iowa. There they stayed to prepare for the journey across the plains.
    The dreaded disease, cholera, took the father and mother of Edwin, his
    little brother and little daughter, Emily Jane. Their names are on the
    monument lately erected at that place in memory of those who died there. So
    many of his family were sick at one time, that there was no one well enough to
    get the sick ones a drink, but even in those trying times, they still had faith
    and rejoiced in the Gospel, for the Lord was with them. Emeline, a sister of
    Edwin, married Fredrick Walter Cox and the two families were as one big family
    for years. They established a chair factory and hauled the chairs to Quincy,
    Illinois where they were sold. From this and their crops, they prepared to
    come west. Aunt Mary taught school two terms and helped the family some.
    While at Mt. Pisgah, three children were born. Albert Milton was born to Mary.
    Oscar Newell was born to Elizabeth, and Catherine Emeline was born to Almira.
    In April, 1849, Edwin and Emeline, the only children of Elisha and Sally
    Whiting who stayed true to the Church, started westward in brother Morley's
    company.
    Volumes have been written of the westward journey of the saints, and as
    Congressman Leatherstood has said, "It is the greatest emigration trail that
    was ever blazed and our pioneers will some day stand out in history as the
    greatest pioneers of the world."
    They fought Indians, had their cattle stampeeded, suffered for lack of
    proper food, and even though tired from that long and tedious trek, still they
    went on. After reaching the Black Hills, a heavy snow storm came and for three
    days they were shut in. Many of their cattle died and perhaps they would have
    died had not the teams and provisions sent by President Brigham Young come to
    their aid. On October 28, 1849, they reached Salt Lake City, which looked
    like a haven of rest to that travel-worn company. Aunt Mary said, "I have
    never beheld a sight so good and so beautiful as Salt Lake City. We were so
    thankful our journey was at an end." But their rest was of short duration, for
    in a few days, Edwin Whiting, the Morley's and the Cox's were called to settle
    the San Pitch River, now known as Manti. Again they journeyed on. It took
    three weeks to go from Salt Lake City, because they had to build their own
    roads.
    Provo was then a village of about six homes. As they passed Hobble Creek,
    afterwards known as Springville, Edwin Whiting remarked, "This is a fertile
    spot. I would like to stop here."
    They arrived in Sanpete county on December 1, 1849, with almost nothing to
    eat, no food for their cattle, no shelter to keep them warm, and cold weather
    upon them. They made "dug-outs" on the south side of the hill where the Manti
    Temple now stands. It was a severe winter, with snow so deep the cattle could
    scarcely get grass and most of them died. Food had to be divided with the
    Indians to keep peace. President Young had promised them provisions and help,
    but none came, so Edwin and Orville Cox put on snow shoes and with a little
    parched corn in their pockets for food, placed their bedding on a sleigh and
    started toward Salt Lake City for help. When they reached Nephi Canyon, they
    met their help, brother Dace Henry, his wife, her brother, Mr. Dodge and an
    Indian, snow bound. Their cattle had died and their wagons were all but
    covered with snow. The young wife was very sick, so Edwin gave them the sleigh
    to pull her to Manti. They put their quilts on their backs and walked on to
    Salt Lake Clity and reported conditions to President Young. Aid was
    immediately sent, but some of that company went back to Salt Lake City.
    Edwin's family now numbered fourteen. They lived in a large room in the
    wall of the hill with their chair factory in one end. The men and boys hauled
    wood from the hills on the hand sleighs.
    The following spring (1850), there were three girls born. Harriet Lucinda
    was born to Mary Elizabeth in April, Louisa Melitia was born to Elizabeth in
    May, and Cornelia Dolly was born to Almira in June.
    For several seasons, very little was raised. It became necessary to build a
    fort to protect themselves from the Indians, for they felt that the white man
    had stolen their land. The gates of the fort were locked while the men went to
    the fields with their guns. From this developed the Walker War. Edwin was
    appointed Captain for the Militia. Twice the Indians drove his cattle off and
    stole whatever they could.
    Edwin often told us of one big old ox that he owned. The ox would rebel
    whenever an Indian tried to drive him. He would turn on his captors and break
    their defense and come home. He hated Indians and would always lower his head
    and challenge them if they came near.
    Edwin tried planting fruit trees, shrubs and flowers, but they could not
    survive the very cold winters. Their crops were poor, but they managed to
    exist and were a happy family in spite of their hardships.
    In 1854, he was called to Ohio on a mission and was gone for two years.
    While he was away, the grasshoppers came and took everything they raised. They
    faced starvation, but miraculously, where the crops had been, a patch of
    pigweeds grew and they lived on them until the corn ripened in Utah County.
    A strange thing it was, for the Indians said those pigweeds had never grown
    there before, nor have they grown since. Walter Cox divided with his brother's
    (brother-in-law) family while Edwin was away.
    Edwin, upon his return, brought many kinds of fruit trees, (some from his
    father's farm that he helped to plant when a boy) shrubs and flowers, and again
    tried to grow them, but the climate was too cold.
    On the 8th of October, 1856, Edwin married Hannah Haines Brown. Abby Ann
    Whiting was born to this couple at Manti in 1858 and Lorenzo Snow Whiting was
    born at Manti in 1860.
    On the 14th day of April, 1857, he married Mary Ann Washburn. Two children
    were born to the family while they resided at Manti. Daniel Abram was born in
    May, 1858 and Monroe Finch Whiting was born in November, 1862.
    While he lived at Manti, Edwin was among the foremost men in religious and
    civic affairs of the community. He was councelor to the Stake President. He
    was mayor of the city from 1857 to 1861. He was a member of the legislature
    for two terms, and as stated before, he was Captain of the Militia in the
    Walker War.
    After finding the climate of Manti unfavorable for raising fruit, his
    special work, he was advised by Presiden Young to try out his nursery at
    Springville. He moved to Springville in 1861 and was able to plant and grow
    all kinds and varieties of fruit trees, vegetables and flowers. People used to
    come from neighboring communities to see his flowers.
    He built a home on the lot where the Springville Second Ward Church now
    stands. That old two story adobe home will stand in the memory of the members
    of the Whiting Family as a place of many happy evenings and of fun and
    amusement. Aunt Mary also taught school there.
    He transplanted, in different towns, many evergreens from the mountains.
    Those around the old Court House in Provo, those at the Springville City park,
    and one large evergreen that stands southwest of the Manti Temple which can be
    seen for miles around. He once said "I brought that in my dinner bucket and I
    think it was the first evergreen transplanted in Utah."
    His life was typical of this great tree. A poem written by Emmay Whiting,
    wife of Daniel Whiting, describes his life and this tree as being similar.
    Edwin had one of the largest families in Utah. Many of those stand at the
    head of Stake and Ward organizations in our Church. Among his descendants,
    we found seven bishops.
    In his later life, he did temple work for his dead relatives in the Salt
    Lake Temple, St. George Temple, and in the Logan Temple. He lived the
    principles of his religion. He was honest, charitable, and never accumulated
    great riches. He was thrifty and loved his wives and children and gave them
    the comforts of life.
    He died at Mapleton, Utah on the 9th of December, 1890 at the age of
    eighty-one years. He was firm in his belief and testimony of the truthfulness
    of the Gospel.
    His descendants are numerous and are found in Idaho, Arizona, Mexico,
    California, New York, and in Utah.

Pisgah, Iowa and began the big trek toward the west. They visited the Coxes and Whitings at Silver Creek. Then they made their way to the Elkhorn river in Nebraska. by the time that they arrived at the Elkhorn, it had been three monts since they left Mt. Pisgah. They were made part of the George A. Smith company of fifty, wagons. Ezra T. Benson was in command of the whole company of one hundred wagons. When the big trek began from there, Edwin's family consisted of the following:

    HISTORY: (Compiled by Jennie Bird Hill, daughter of Abby Ann Whiting, daughter
    of Edwin and Hannah Whiting- 1919) "About the year 1800, in the
    little town of Lee, Berkshire County, Massachusetts, near the border of New
    York, lived the family of Elisha and Sally Hulett Whiting. Elisha Whiting's
    father was a sea captain and lived in Connecticut. He died when Elisha was
    very young. His mother, not knowing what else to do, bound him to an old
    Quaker, who was very cruel to him, and after a few years, he ran away to
    Massachusetts and worked on a farm with a wheelwright. Here he was married to
    Sally Hulett. They were highly respected, honest, generous and firm in their
    convictions.
    Elisha Whiting followed the trade of wagon and chair maker and did his work
    well. His wife was very gifted in making prose and poetry, a characteristic
    that has been bequeathed to many of the Whiting descendants. To Elisha and
    Sally Whiting, twelve children were born, eight sons and four daughters as
    follows: (1) Charles, (2) William, (3) Edwin, (4) Charles, (5) Katherine
    Louisa, (6) Harriet, (7) Sally Emeline, (8) Chauncey, (9) Almond, (10) Jane,
    (11) Sylvester, and (12) Lewis.
    Edwin Whiting was born September 9, 1809, the third child of this family.
    When he was six years old, his parents moved to Nelson, Portage County, Ohio.
    At that time, it was the western frontier of the U.S.A. but probably the very
    place his father wished to be to get a suitable timber for his trade and for
    support of his large family.
    Edwin Whiting's chance for education was very limited, but they were all
    taught the "3 R's", Readin', Ritin', and Rithmetic, and he wrote an legible
    hand, an extrordinary feat for his time. At an early age, he wrote credible
    verse.
    His early life in the forest, no doubt, accounts for his love of the
    out-of-doors, the beauties of nature, the trees, the flowers, the mountains and
    the desire to hunt.
    One Sunday morning, when but a small boy, he decided to go hunting. He knew
    this was contrary to his parent's teachings, so he tried to draw his gun
    through the cracks between the logs of his bedroom and go unmolested. His gun
    caught and was discharged, inflicting a serious wound in his left arm. This,
    he said, was a lesson to observe the Sabbath Day and to obey his parents.
    He learned the chair making trade from his father and his workmanship was
    considered very good.
    In 1833, when Edwin was twenty-four years old, he married Elizabeth
    Partridge Tillotson, an Ohio girl of French descent. She was a highly educated
    school teacher, quite an accomplishment for those days.
    In 1837, the Gospel was brought to the Whiting family. Edwin and his wife,
    his father and mother and some of his brothers and sisters joined the Church of
    Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. They were baptized by Thomas Marsh in 1838.
    Here, as in the time of Christ and His Apostles, the humble, hard-working class
    of people were the ones to listen and accept the Gospel of truth.
    They were among the early members of our church and soon joined the saints
    in Kirtland, Ohio. It was here that their trials, hardships and persecutions
    began and it took true manhood, womanhood, and faith in God to endure. They
    were forced to leave their new comfortable home, complete with furniture,
    orchards and land in Kirtland, Ohio and took only their clothing and a few
    valued relics and went to Far West, Missouri. By this time, Edwin and
    Elizabeth had four children: William, Helen Amelia, Sarah Elizabeth and Emily
    Jane. They were only in Far West a short time and had just built a new home,
    when the mob, several thousand strong, ordered them out. Every house in the
    village was burned except father Elisha Whiting's, which was spared because he
    was so sick then could not move him.
    We remember of hearing aunt Elizabeth tell how she sat on the pile of
    bedding far into the night with little daughter Jane in her arms. Little Jane
    died soon after from exposure and lack of proper food. Sarah clapped her hands
    at the big bonfire the mob had made with their fences and the select wood from
    her father's chair shop. They were compelled to flee again so they joined the
    saints at Lima in father Morley's branch, where Edwin Whiting acted as
    counselor to brother Morley.
    For Several years, the saints were happily building up the city of Nauvoo,
    and their temple. Here they worshipped God without as much persecution as they
    had experienced at Lima. Edwin was appointed Colonel in the Nauvoo Legion and
    was an active worker at all times for the up-building of His Church.
    Through the advice of those in authority, and for a righteous purpose, he
    entered the law of plural marriage. In the year 1845, he married Almira
    Meacham. The following year, January 27, 1846, he married Mary Elizabeth Cox.
    That same year, he was called on a mission to Pennsylvania and was there at the
    time of the martyrdom of the Prophet Joseph and Hyrum Smith. He woon returned
    home and took up arms with his bretheren to protect his property and the lives
    of his family.
    During the battle of the Crooked River, his brother Charles was killed.
    Still a greater test awaited him, his brothers, Almond, Sylvester, Chauncey and
    Lewis and his sister, Louisa did not feel that Brigham Young should be the
    leader of the Church so they followed a Mr. Cutler and called themselves
    "Cutlerites" and moved up into Clitheral, Minnesota. To this day they hold
    tenaciously to the teachings of the Prophet Joseph Smith. They still
    correspond with the children of Edwin Whiting, and have given us, for temple
    work, an extensive genealogy of the Whiting family.
    Edwin Whiting, his families, his father and mother stayed with the saints,
    who were compelled to move west as far as Mt. Pisgah, (now known as Talmadge)
    Iowa. There they stayed to prepare for the journey across the plains.
    The dreaded disease, cholera, took the father and mother of Edwin, his
    little brother and little daughter, Emily Jane. Their names are on the
    monument lately erected at that place in memory of those who died there. So
    many of his family were sick at one time, that there was no one well enough to
    get the sick ones a drink, but even in those trying times, they still had faith
    and rejoiced in the Gospel, for the Lord was with them. Emeline, a sister of
    Edwin, married Fredrick Walter Cox and the two families were as one big family
    for years. They established a chair factory and hauled the chairs to Quincy,
    Illinois where they were sold. From this and their crops, they prepared to
    come west. Aunt Mary taught school two terms and helped the family some.
    While at Mt. Pisgah, three children were born. Albert Milton was born to Mary.
    Oscar Newell was born to Elizabeth, and Catherine Emeline was born to Almira.
    In April, 1849, Edwin and Emeline, the only children of Elisha and Sally
    Whiting who stayed true to the Church, started westward in brother Morley's
    company.
    Volumes have been written of the westward journey of the saints, and as
    Congressman Leatherstood has said, "It is the greatest emigration trail that
    was ever blazed and our pioneers will some day stand out in history as the
    greatest pioneers of the world."
    They fought Indians, had their cattle stampeeded, suffered for lack of
    proper food, and even though tired from that long and tedious trek, still they
    went on. After reaching the Black Hills, a heavy snow storm came and for three
    days they were shut in. Many of their cattle died and perhaps they would have
    died had not the teams and provisions sent by President Brigham Young come to
    their aid. On October 28, 1849, they reached Salt Lake City, which looked
    like a haven of rest to that travel-worn company. Aunt Mary said, "I have
    never beheld a sight so good and so beautiful as Salt Lake City. We were so
    thankful our journey was at an end." But their rest was of short duration, for
    in a few days, Edwin Whiting, the Morley's and the Cox's were called to settle
    the San Pitch River, now known as Manti. Again they journeyed on. It took
    three weeks to go from Salt Lake City, because they had to build their own
    roads.
    Provo was then a village of about six homes. As they passed Hobble Creek,
    afterwards known as Springville, Edwin Whiting remarked, "This is a fertile
    spot. I would like to stop here."
    They arrived in Sanpete county on December 1, 1849, with almost nothing to
    eat, no food for their cattle, no shelter to keep them warm, and cold weather
    upon them. They made "dug-outs" on the south side of the hill where the Manti
    Temple now stands. It was a severe winter, with snow so deep the cattle could
    scarcely get grass and most of them died. Food had to be divided with the
    Indians to keep peace. President Young had promised them provisions and help,
    but none came, so Edwin and Orville Cox put on snow shoes and with a little
    parched corn in their pockets for food, placed their bedding on a sleigh and
    started toward Salt Lake City for help. When they reached Nephi Canyon, they
    met their help, brother Dace Henry, his wife, her brother, Mr. Dodge and an
    Indian, snow bound. Their cattle had died and their wagons were all but
    covered with snow. The young wife was very sick, so Edwin gave them the sleigh
    to pull her to Manti. They put their quilts on their backs and walked on to
    Salt Lake Clity and reported conditions to President Young. Aid was
    immediately sent, but some of that company went back to Salt Lake City.
    Edwin's family now numbered fourteen. They lived in a large room in the
    wall of the hill with their chair factory in one end. The men and boys hauled
    wood from the hills on the hand sleighs.
    The following spring (1850), there were three girls born. Harriet Lucinda
    was born to Mary Elizabeth in April, Louisa Melitia was born to Elizabeth in
    May, and Cornelia Dolly was born to Almira in June.
    For several seasons, very little was raised. It became necessary to build a
    fort to protect themselves from the Indians, for they felt that the white man
    had stolen their land. The gates of the fort were locked while the men went to
    the fields with their guns. From this developed the Walker War. Edwin was
    appointed Captain for the Militia. Twice the Indians drove his cattle off and
    stole whatever they could.
    Edwin often told us of one big old ox that he owned. The ox would rebel
    whenever an Indian tried to drive him. He would turn on his captors and break
    their defense and come home. He hated Indians and would always lower his head
    and challenge them if they came near.
    Edwin tried planting fruit trees, shrubs and flowers, but they could not
    survive the very cold winters. Their crops were poor, but they managed to
    exist and were a happy family in spite of their hardships.
    In 1854, he was called to Ohio on a mission and was gone for two years.
    While he was away, the grasshoppers came and took everything they raised. They
    faced starvation, but miraculously, where the crops had been, a patch of
    pigweeds grew and they lived on them until the corn ripened in Utah County.
    A strange thing it was, for the Indians said those pigweeds had never grown
    there before, nor have they grown since. Walter Cox divided with his brother's
    (brother-in-law) family while Edwin was away.
    Edwin, upon his return, brought many kinds of fruit trees, (some from his
    father's farm that he helped to plant when a boy) shrubs and flowers, and again
    tried to grow them, but the climate was too cold.
    On the 8th of October, 1856, Edwin married Hannah Haines Brown. Abby Ann
    Whiting was born to this couple at Manti in 1858 and Lorenzo Snow Whiting was
    born at Manti in 1860.
    On the 14th day of April, 1857, he married Mary Ann Washburn. Two children
    were born to the family while they resided at Manti. Daniel Abram was born in
    May, 1858 and Monroe Finch Whiting was born in November, 1862.
    While he lived at Manti, Edwin was among the foremost men in religious and
    civic affairs of the community. He was councelor to the Stake President. He
    was mayor of the city from 1857 to 1861. He was a member of the legislature
    for two terms, and as stated before, he was Captain of the Militia in the
    Walker War.
    After finding the climate of Manti unfavorable for raising fruit, his
    special work, he was advised by Presiden Young to try out his nursery at
    Springville. He moved to Springville in 1861 and was able to plant and grow
    all kinds and varieties of fruit trees, vegetables and flowers. People used to
    come from neighboring communities to see his flowers.
    He built a home on the lot where the Springville Second Ward Church now
    stands. That old two story adobe home will stand in the memory of the members
    of the Whiting Family as a place of many happy evenings and of fun and
    amusement. Aunt Mary also taught school there.
    He transplanted, in different towns, many evergreens from the mountains.
    Those around the old Court House in Provo, those at the Springville City park,
    and one large evergreen that stands southwest of the Manti Temple which can be
    seen for miles around. He once said "I brought that in my dinner bucket and I
    think it was the first evergreen transplanted in Utah."
    His life was typical of this great tree. A poem written by Emmay Whiting,
    wife of Daniel Whiting, describes his life and this tree as being similar.
    Edwin had one of the largest families in Utah. Many of those stand at the
    head of Stake and Ward organizations in our Church. Among his descendants,
    we found seven bishops.
    In his later life, he did temple work for his dead relatives in the Salt
    Lake Temple, St. George Temple, and in the Logan Temple. He lived the
    principles of his religion. He was honest, charitable, and never accumulated
    great riches. He was thrifty and loved his wives and children and gave them
    the comforts of life.
    He died at Mapleton, Utah on the 9th of December, 1890 at the age of
    eighty-one years. He was firm in his belief and testimony of the truthfulness
    of the Gospel.
    His descendants are numerous and are found in Idaho, Arizona, Mexico,
    California, New York, and in Utah.

    ELISHA WHITING, Jr. & SALLY HULET WHITING HISTORY:[Compiled from the collected writings of Martha Whiting Brown, Ruth Brown Lewis, other family writings, and historical writings as noted in text.]by Louine B. Hunter [1997 revision]


    E lisha's father, Elisha, was born November 21, 1762, at Hartford Connecticut. He married Susannah Butler March 25, 1784, at West Hartford.

    Elisha was a sea captain. He DESERTED his wife and children. We have the DIVORCE PAPERS.
    13. Hartford probates (nothing for Elisha Whiting or Susanna his wife)
    note: None of these children were christened while the father was living (or at home) and only the third was christened at all (in Hartford). The family history states that "after the death of the father, the mother apprenticed out the son to an old Quaker, from whom he ran away. The 7190 census of Connecticut does not list either Elisha or susanna as head of a family. No record of his death has been found. susannah married again in 1796 and removed to New York ( could there have been a divorce, or Elisha left home?) In August 1786 Elisha "formerly of Farmington, now of Hartford" for bad husbandry and mismanagement was taken under the care of the Selectmen of Farmington, but was released when he moved to Hartford.

    ! Noted in Baltimore, Maryland marriages: Elisha Whiting and Sarah Tidy 3 Jan 1791: Who is he?
    !14. Records of Northampton, New York (Received by correspondence 22Jun1965)
    Nothing on Reuben Simmons in land records and no other information in probates.
    !15. 1790 census of Connecticut: No Elisha Whiting Reuben Simmons in Simsbury, 3 male over 16 2 females
    !None of these children were christened while the father was living (or at home) and only the third was christened at all (in Hartford). The family history states that "after the death of the father, the mother apprenticed out the son to an old Quaker, from whom he ran away. The 1790 census of Conn. does not list either Elisha or Susanna as head of a family. No record of this death has been found.

    Susannah married again in 1796 and removed to New York (could there have been a divorce, or Elisha left home?)

    In August 1786 Elisha "formerly of Farmington, now of Hartford" for bad husbandry and mismanagement was taken under the care of the Selectmen of Farmington, but was released when he moved to Hartford.

    Noted in Baltimore, Maryland marriages: Elisha Whiting and Sarah Tidy 3 Jan 1791 (who is he?);
    He left his wife alone to care for their three small children in Hartford. Elisha Jr. had two younger sisters, Polly and Susannah. EDITOR'S NOTE: Although we do not have a death date for Elisha Sr., we know he died at a young age, probably around age 28, and near the year 1790. Their last child was born about 1789, and Susannah married her second husband, Reuben Simmons on May 1, 1796, indicating that Elisha and Susannah were married far less than twelve years, and probably closer to six years.


    Revo lutionary War Records, Connecticut, page 541: "Elisha Whiting,[Sr.] Private in Captain Ozias Bissell's Company." His birth date is listed as November 21, 1762. The war was fought between 1775 and 1783, indicating that Elisha was somewhere between thirteen and twenty one while serving in the Revolutionary War.


    ELISHA JR'S EARLY YEARS Without her husband's income, Susannah was very poor. Not knowing what else to do, she eventually bound Elisha out to an old Quaker to learn the carpentry trade. Though Elisha worked hard, the Quaker was very mean to him, sometimes hitting him and doing other cruel things.


    Elisha was very unhappy. He was resentful of his mother and to all concerned that such a thing had happened to him. He never got over those feelings and his children and grandchildren knew that his lips were sealed so far as any experiences of his youth were concerned.


    Cordelia Perry, his granddaughter, told Martha Whiting Brown the following: His feelings were so badly hurt that he never wanted to speak of it. One day at his chair and wagon shop in Manti, Ohio, a stranger came in and brought up the subject of being a relative from his early days. Elisha flew into a rage and refused to listen to him, then ordered him to leave his shop at once.


    So we, his children's children, will never know, I guess, just what he went through, being sent from home by his mother, after his father's DESERTION. They say he was bitter about it until the day he died.


    ELISH A MEETS SALLY Although he was afraid of the old Quaker, Elisha ran away to make his own way in the world. He went to Lee, Massachusetts, where he met Sylvanus Hulet, a wheelwright (one who makes repairs of wheels and wheeled vehicles) who lived on a farm. Elisha asked Sylvanus for a job, assuring him that he could do carpentry work and make chairs and furniture, so he was hired.


    Ther e he met Sylvanus' daughter, Sally, a real pretty girl, the oldest of the seven Hulet children. She was part Indian and had dark hair and dark eyes. Elisha soon fell in love with Sally who was not quite seventeen years old; he was not yet twenty.


    They were married September 18, 1805. Lee, Massachusetts was their first home, where their first four children were born. It was a sad day when their first baby died the same day it was born in 1806. A year later William was born, followed the next year by Edwin, their third child. Two and a half years later Charles was born. The next two children, Catherine, 3 Oct 1813, and Harriet, 16 Aug 1815, were born in their second place of residence.


    NELSON, PORTAGE, OHIO, 1817 When little Edwin was six, the family traveled over the Mohawk Trail to Nelson, Ohio, which was then the western frontier, probably the very place Elisha wished to be to get suitable timber for his carpentry trade, to support his growing family.


    Eli sha built a log cabin on a quiet sloping hill that looked out over the valley. He built an open fireplace where Sally cooked. An iron crane protruded from the side where Sally would hang a kettle from the crane and push it back over the fire. When she wanted to bake bread, she put the dough inside the kettle and put red hot coals on the flat top.


    Around the room were beds, a table and a cupboard. After all, her husband was a carpenter who learned to do beautiful work while he was with the old Quaker. He made a handsome black walnut bureau for Sally that she was very proud of. The girls slept in a trundle bed that was pulled out from under their parent's bed. They soon built another section onto their log cabin. One side they lived in; the other side was a wagon and carpentry shop At night they lit tallow candles and burned knots from pine trees in the fireplace while they told stories.


    The last six of their twelve children were born in Nelson, Portage, Ohio: Emeline, Chauncy, Almon, Jane, Sylvester, and Lewis. Their education was limited, but they were all taught "the three R's: Readin', Ritin', and Rithmetic." We are told that Sally Hulet Whiting was a wonderful woman and that she was very gifted in writing prose and poetry, a characteristic bequeathed to many of her Whiting descendants. Sally and Elisha were some of the most respected citizens of Nelson. They were honest, generous, and firm in their convictions.


    THREE STORIES ABOUT CATHERINE Catherine was the fourth child of Sally and Elisha. Catherine spent a lot of time with her relatives, especially her grandmother, Mary Lewis Hulet, and her aunts and cousins.


    A TRIP THROUGH THE WOODS One day Catherine went to visit her aunt who sent her on an errand to borrow a pattern from a friend who lived about a mile away, straight through the woods. She knew she wouldn't get lost, but it was kind of scary to go into the woods alone. She wanted to please her aunt so she tied on her sunbonnet and began her errand. As she went along she saw some snakes, but she was used to them, they did not frighten her. She saw plenty of rabbits and squirrels and other little animals. The forest was beautiful and interesting and she was having a good time.


    She soon reached the aunt's house, got the pattern from her and started back. When she was almost home she saw a big, black bear. Upon seeing Catherine, the bear rose to his hind feet! Catherine was nearly paralyzed with fear, so frightened that she could not move. After the bear watched her for a little while it dropped down on all fours and lumbered away with a growl. She ran the rest of the way home.


    THE CHIEF'S SON Sometimes the Indians came to see the people. When Catherine Whiting was a little girl, an Indian chief came with his little son. He had shining black eyes, copper colored skin, and his father was very proud of him. Because the father was a chief, both were dressed in colorful beads, earrings, brooches, and elaborate clothes.The chief thought Catherine was so cute that he told her he would give her one of his brooches if she would kiss his little son. She really wanted that brooch, but she did not want to kiss the boy. The chief was quite offended; he thought she should be very proud to kiss his son, but she would not kiss him.


    After the Indians went away, Sally, Catherine's mother, was afraid they might come back and do some harm, but they never did.


    BEDTIM E FRIGHT One evening while their father (Elisha) was away, the family sat around the fire talking. Catherine became sleepy but she did not want to take a candle up the stairs, so she went up in the dark and got ready for bed. She put her hand down to turn the covers back and felt a big, hairy head. "Oh!" she screamed, and fled down the stairs crying, "There's a man sleeping in my bed!"


    Her mother was alarmed but bravely flew into action. She took a broom in one hand and a candle in the other and dashed up the stairs, followed by her boys who held clubs at the ready. They all rushed into the room to find out WHO WAS SLEEPING IN CATHERINE'S BED?, just like the "Three Bears and Goldilocks".


    When they held up the candle, they saw their old dog, Paint, under the covers. The boys laughed and teased Catherine!


    EDWIN AND THE GUN In the Whiting family, no one was allowed to hunt on the Sabbath. One Sunday morning Edwin decided he wanted to go hunting, so he tried to sneak his gun out of the house by drawing it through a crack between the logs. The gun got caught, fired, and wounded his left arm. That was a lesson to keep the Sabbath day holy that he never forgot. He retold this story to his children and grandchildren many times.

    Death of Mary Lewis Hulet
    Sally's mother, Mary Lewis Hulet, went through all the hardships the Saints went through in Missouri before she died in Clay County, probably in 1837.
    Two of her daughters, Charlotte and Rhoda, died in Missouri; martyrs for the faith. Only Sally, of Mary's daughters, lived to leave Missouri.
    Caldwell County
    Growing resentment from their Clay County neighbors caused the Saints to agree once again to give up their land and many possessions, and move as a body to Caldwell County, where they soon founded the new settlement they named Far West.
