      Will of William Whiting died 24 July 1647
      William Whiting was at Hartford in 1636, a wealthy merchant who had been engaged in a patent for lands at Swamscot with Lord Say and Lord Brook. He had wife Susanna, son William and perhaps John before leaving England. Savage says that possibly he came with Thomas Wiggin in 1633, and probably he came from Cambridge MA, since other prominent persons removed thence that year. He was an early member of First Church, and his name is on the Founders Monument of Hartford. In 1637 Whiting was one of the first representatives; in 1641, Assistant; and he served as Treasurer of the Colony from 1643 to his death in 1647, when he was called Major.
