WILLIAM WHITING
Generation 1


WILLIAM WHITING, one of the early settlers of Hartford, Connecticut, is mentioned in the histories of this country as early as 1632 or 1633. He was an original proprietor of the town.
William Whiting was a merchant of wealth, and had dealings with Virginia and Piscataqua. Between 1631 and 1633, “The Bristol men had sold their interest in Piscataqua, to the Lords Say and Brooke, George Wyllys and William Whiting, who continued Thomas Wiggin their agent.” Mr. Whiting retained his interest in Piscataqua until his death, and was one of the most efficient promoters of the trade and commerce of Hartford. He was also engaged in a patent for lands at Swampscott with Lords Say and Brook. He also had a trading-house at the Delaware River, and also at Westfield, Mass.
William married SUSANNAH WIGGIN in 1647. We know nothing about her lineage.
He was “one of the most respectable of the settlers in 1636” – “one of the civil and religious Fathers of Connecticut,” a man of wealth and education, styled in the records “William Whiting, Gentleman.” Several of his letters, written in 1637, now in the State Archives, are sealed with his arms, which are a variation of those of the family of Whiting of Boston, Lincolnshire, England.
William Whiting sat with the Court of Magistrates in 1637.
In 1638 William was allowed to trade with the Indians; and he was appointed with Major Mason and others to erect fortifications in 1642. In the same year he was appointed with Mason to collect tribute of the Indians on Long Island and on the Main.

His home-lot in 1639 was on the east side of the street now called Governor Street.

William was made a freeman in February of 1640. In 1641, he was chosen Treasurer of the Colony of Connecticut, which office he retained for seven years, until his death. In 1642, he was chosen to be a magistrate, and continued in that office also, until his death.
In 1646 “a plot was laid by Sequasson, Sachem of the Naticks, to kill Governors Haynes and Hopkins and Mr. Whiting, on account of the just and faithful protection which these gentlemen had afforded to Uncas. The plot was made known by a friendly Indian and the danger averted.”
William Whiting bore the title of Major in 1647.
William began his will, dated 20 March 1643, by stating that he intended “a voyage presently unto sea.” The last addition to his will was made on 24 July 1647, and he probably died soon after, leaving his widow Susanna. The inventory of his estate amounted to £2854. His will can be seen in Trumbull’s Colonial Records of Connecticut (Vol. I, p. 493).


FOUNDERS' MONUMENT

Because he was an Original Proprietor, William Whiting's name appears on the Founders' Monument which occupies a place of honor in Hartford's Old Burying Ground behind the "Center" Church. His name appears on the south face, fifth from the bottom.


Founders' Monument, Hartford, Connecticut

William Whiting is considered to be one of the civil and religious fathers of Connecticut. All of his descendants are eligible to be members of the Society of the Descendants of the Founders of Hartford, and many other honorary societies.


SUSANNAH

Susannah really would have had her hands full then. Her eldest son was probably thirteen then, our ancestor Joseph was not yet two, and evidently there was one other son born after William’s death in 1647. It is highly likely that William left sufficient assets to provide Susannah with all the help she needed to raise her family in the style to which they were accustomed.
The Whiting’s social circle would have paralleled that of other prominent families in Hartford. So as our Joseph grew up, he would have been in close proximity to and association with the children of the John Pynchon family, one of New England’s most powerful and influential families.
William’s widow, Susannah, remarried in 1650, Mr. Samuel Fitch, of Hartford, by whom she had two sons. Samuel Fitch died in 1659, when our Joseph would have been only fourteen years old. Susannah remarried for a third time, Mr. Alexander Bryan, of Milford, Connecticut. She died at Middletown, at the house of her daughter, a Mrs. Collins, and was buried there on 8 July 1673. Our Joseph would have been 28 years old when his mother died.



CHILDREN of WILLIAM & SUSANNAH WHITING

JOSEPH WHITING
Generation 2


As an adult, JOSEPH WHITING left Hartford and became a merchant first at Westfield, Massachusetts.

On 5 October 1669, Joseph married MARY PYNCHON, born 28 Oct 1650, the daughter of the Honorable John Pynchon and Amy Wyllys Pynchon.

Go to the
PYNCHON FAMILY

Given the wealth and importance of Joseph’s family in Hartford, not to mention Mary’s father’s wealth and social status, the youngsters must have celebrated as elegant a wedding as her station in life would allow. What started out, however, as a brilliant match with a bright future, ended in grief all too soon, as was very often the case in colonial America out on the frontier, such as Westfield Massachusetts was. Mary had given Joseph two children, a girl and a boy, but by 1675 or early 1676, she died, more than likely in childbirth.


Joseph removed from Westfield, Mass. back to Hartford in 1675 or ‘76 – with Mary before she died, or afterwards, is unclear. But given an appropriate period of time for mourning, Joseph married again, in 1676, his second wife, Anna Allyn, and was again in Hartford for the rest of his life.
Anna was born 18 August 1654, the daughter of Col. John Allyn. Anna’s mother was a granddaughter of the Honorable William Pynchon, just as was Joseph’s first wife, Mary.
Joseph Whiting was appointed Treasurer of the Colony of Connecticut in 1679 and served – for 39 years – until his death. His son John succeeded him to the same office for another 32 years.
Joseph Whiting died in 1718. His second wife, Anna Allyn Pynchon died 3 March 1735.

MARY WHITING was born 19 August 1672 at Westfield, Massachusetts. She married Joseph Sheldon.

2032 !Genealogies and Biographies of Ancient Windsor, Stiles. Daniel md (1)Esther White 15 May 1765, (2) Ruth Spencer, 10 Feb 1771 (she died 12 Mar 1794,age 47), and possible (3) Clarinda Barber, 5 Jun 1799. He resided atHartford. Since the Daniel born 6 March 1734 did not die until 1823, it is presumedthat the Daniel baptized 18 Aug 1745 is the same Daniel although there is no explanation for why he was not baptized until 1745. Further, althoughJames White Skinner was not baptized until 5 Oct 1777, he is most likely theson of Esther White, whose surname is his middle name, rather than Ruth Spencer,who was the wife of Daniel in 1777. Perhaps Esther died in the childbirth ofJames and due to the circumstances he was not baptized at the time. Threeother children were recorded as baptized in the East Windsor church, however,no names or sexes were provided. Ordinance information from the 1988 IGI.
