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.

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. Anne (Whiting) Fitch, died in Lebanon at 80 years of age in 1778.

SAMUEL WHITING was born on 20 Feb 1699/00 in Windham, CT., and died at age 18 in 1718 when he was lost at sea.

Elizabeth died two and half years after their youngest child was born at the young age of 28, and is probably buried in New London. During their 5-year marriage Elizabeth and William had two children born in New London.

Notes
John Whiting, second son of William Whiting, was born 1635; graduated at Harvard College, 1653; preached several years in Salem, Mass. He was there in 1659, March 8, when "the selectmen, together with the deacons and Mr. Gedney, are desired to treat with Mr. Whiting to know his mind about staying with us" [Salem Town Records]. He removed with his family "from the Bay" to Hartford, and was ordained over the First Church in 1660. In 1669, in consequence of the discussions which agitated the church at that time, Mr. Whiting and others presented a petition to the Assembly "for their approbation, for a distinct walking in Congregational Church Order," which was granted, and in 1670, a new Church was formed, of which Mr. Whiting was chosen pastor, and so continued till his death, September 8th, 1689.

2.REV. JOHN3 WHITING (WILLIAM2, JOHN1)6,7,8 was born Oct 1635 in Hartford, CT, and died 8 Sep 1689 in Hadley, MA.He married (1) SYBIL COLLINS9 1654 in Cambridge, Mass, daughter of EDWARD COLLINS and MARTHA BAYLIE.She was born Nov 1637 in Cambridge, Mass, and died 4 Jun 1672 in Hartford, CT.He married (2) PHEBE GREGSON 1673 in New Haven, CT, daughter of THOMAS GREGSON and JANE________.She was born 15 Oct 1643 in New Haven, CT, and died 19 Sep 1730 in New Haven, CT.
Notes for REV. JOHN WHITING:
John is our direct descendent.See our book, "Our Whiting Heritage" for a more complete narrative.
Our John married twice, first to Sybil Collins the daughter of Edward and Martha (Baylie) Collins. During their 18-year marriage, John and Sybil had seven children. In 1673, the 38-year-old John married Phebe Gregson, daughter of Thomas and Jane Gregson of New Haven, with whom he had seven additional children. John graduated from Harvard College in 1653 at the age of 18 and several records state he preached several years in and around Salem, Massachusetts before moving to Cambridge. Other records indicate John moved to Cambridge Massachusetts shortly after graduation sometime in 1653/54. In 1660 he moved with his family "from the Bay" to Hartford, CT where he was ordained at the First Congregational Church. (Salem Town Records.)
According to journals taken from New England Families Memorial, there was a Rev John Whiting who served as the chaplain of the Hartford Colonial Foot forces during the King Philip's War in 1675. The journal further states this John Whiting was killed by Indians on Sept 8, 1690.Other articles record John Whiting died from Indians in Sept 1697, and Sept 1688. We now know that the Rev. John Whiting who was killed by Indians was the descendent of Samuel Whiting of Lynn, Mass., who is no relation to our Hartford Whitings. (Whiting Memoir).
