    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.

    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.

    Children of NATHAN WHITING and MARY SALTONSTALL are:

    Hon. Wm. Whiting, the American ancestor of the Connecticut branch of the Whiting family, came to New England in 1633, and resided for three years in Newtown (now Cambridge), removing thence with Rev. Thomas Hooker and others to Hartford, Conn., of which he was an original proprietor. Frequent mention is made of him as "one of the fathers of the colony." He was referred to in the town records as "William Whiting, Gentleman." He was several times representative to the General Court; was one of the Magistrates in 1642, was chosen Treasurer of the Colony in 1641, and continued in that office till his death.

    ================================THIRD GENERATION
    Samuel Whiting and Elizabeth Adam

    Samuel3 (John2 William1) the youngest child of John and Sybil Whiting was born on 22 Apr 1670 in Hartford, CT. He received his early education from his father and afterwards moved to Norwich, CT where he finished his education for the ministry under the direction of Reverend James Fitch. Soon after this apprenticeship he followed his father's footsteps and went into the ministry. It should be noted here that while researching our heritage, we've come across many occasions where records and articles have confused the two Reverend Samuel Whitings. Our Reverend Samuel Whiting resided in Windham Connecticut and Reverend Samuel Whiting who married Elizabeth St. John resided in Lynn Massachusetts.

    Shortly after his apprenticeship, sometime around 1692, our Samuel was called upon to be the first minister at Windham. "As an inducement he was promised œ50 annually, and a dwelling to be eighteen feet square and two stories high! After he was ordained at Windham December 4, 1700, his salary increased to œ100 with a supply of fuel." In a record kept by himself Samuel wrote, "I preached my first sermon at Windham, from the first verse of Genesis, on the first day of January, 1692-3. I was ordained at Windham, on the 4th day of December, 1700." (Autobiography of W.S. Tyler)

    The life and ministry of Samuel Whiting is described in a book published by the town of Windham in celebration of its bicentennial. The book describes Windham's first century during which the Whitings were a distinguished family, describing our Samuel as "a man of uncommon fervor in the pulpit, who mingled greatly with the people in their everyday transactions and who had large interests in real estate."

    Down through generations of Whitings and their Allied families there have been many notable individuals and historical connections. When our Samuel married Elizabeth Adams our Whiting heritage was forever bonded with the descendents of the "Mayflower". Elizabeth was born on 23 Feb 1680 in Norfolk, Mass and was the daughter of Reverend William Adams, of Dedham, Massachusetts. Her mother, Alice Bradford, was the daughter of Deputy Governor William Bradford, and the granddaughter of Governor Bradford of the Mayflower. Samuel and Elizabeth were married in Norwich, on Sept. 14, 1696 and a passage taken from their marriage ceremony gave the following quote: "This marriage gives beautiful ascent. It starts with the 'Mayflower' through the Bradfords and takes in the great men of the Adams family, and coming down reaches descendants who give far more to life than they demand." (New England Families Genealogical Memorials).

    As a clergyman, Samuel's growing reputation and sincere dedication to the community helped spawn one of three early religious revivals in colonial Connecticut. "In 1721 there occurred a remarkably precious and powerful revival in Windham, under the ministry of the Rev. Samuel Whiting, in which eighty persons were added to the church in that town." (Congregational Church of Windham) Also in the same year, (1721) while Samuel & Elizabeth were residing in Windham, they visited family or friends in Stonnington, Connecticut where his name appears in the records of their church. The following excerpts were taken from those records: Baptised: June 23, 1721 Mr. Samuel Whiting, Pastor of ye Church of Christ at Windham Preacht. A Lecture, and baptized Daniel, son of Daniel Denison; Oliver, son of James Babcock; and Benadam, son of William Denison. (History of the 1st Congregational Church Stoningtin, Connecticut).

    Samuel and Elizabeth, much like their parents and grandparents, held considerable amount of real estate. In one transaction we've researched, a Thomas Huntington, granted a huge parcel of "wilderness land in the county of Hartford" to Samuel and Elizabeth, a holding he kept until his death. During their 29-year marriage, Samuel and Elizabeth had 14 children. Six of those children, Samuel, Joseph, Lidea, Martha, Mary and Eliphalet died at an early age. Samuel was 18 when he died at sea, and Joseph died in Windham in 1721 at the age of 17. Lidea, a twin to Sybil, died one day after she was born on May 05, 1708. Martha was only 9 when she died. (Her headstone can be found in the Windham Cemetery) Mary Whiting married Thomas Clap and we believe she died of childbirth complications. Mary died at age 24, less than 2 weeks after giving birth to her son Saltonstall. Eliphalet Whiting died in Windham, CT just a few months after his 21st birthday.

    Sixteen months after their last child, Nathan Whiting, was born Samuel Whiting died at Enfield, while visiting his cousin Reverend Nathaniel Collins, on September 27, 1725. (Mr. Collins was also his brother-in-law, having married Alice Adams the sister of his wife.) Family records state Samuel was buried in Hartford, but his actual grave site is located in the Enfield Street Cemetery, Enfield Connecticut. Samuel was 55 years old when he died. Samuel's headstone inscription at Enfield Street Cemetery reads: Samuel, Rev, minister of Church of Windham, d 27 Sep 1725, ae 55 yrs.

    Twelve years after Samuel died, the 56 year old Elizabeth married Reverend Samuel Niles of Braintree, Mass., in December 2, 1737. After Reverend Niles died, (May 1, 1762), she moved to New Haven where she lived with her youngest son, Col. Nathan Whiting, and died on December 21, 1766, two months before her 86th birthday.
    Children of SAMUEL WHITING and ELIZABETH ADAMS

    ANNE WHITING was born 2 Jan 1697/98 in Windham, CT., and died 18 Sep 1778 in Lebanon, CT. She married JOSEPH FITCH on 29 Dec 1721 in Lebanon, CT. During their 20-year marriage Anne and Joseph had six children all born in Lebanon. We have found no records indicating Anne, who was 43 years old at the time of Joseph's death, never remarried.
