William Whiting, Warsaw
In the pioneer section of Warsaw Village cemetery there remains
a marble slab to William Whiting, born at Hartford, Conn, in ",1758s>
who died at Warsaw, March 22, I8I4.9, aged 90 years. The Wyoming
County Mirror, recording his death, stated that at the commencement
of the Revolution he lived in Connecticut, near Hartford. In 1776,
he went to New York in the militia company of Lt. George Kellogg and
Col. Chester. In April 1777> he enlisted for three years and served
under Capt. Elisha Kimball, Col. John Chandler and Col. Joseph Hoit.
He was in the battles of Germantown, Ft. Mifflin and Monmouth.
During 1781 and 1782, he was in the team service under Capt; John
Waters, Conductor of Teams.
After the Revolution, he removed with several children to Granville, N.Y., then to Hampton and from there to Warsaw in 1821. He
was an honorable man and retained his faculties up to near the end

His wife, the mother of his children, was Abigail Flower, who died
Aug. 25, 1832, aged 73 years. One of his sons, Nathan Whiting, and
a brother-in-law, Col. Chauncey Sheldon,were among the Americans who
joined the Canadian patriots in 1837» were captured and banished by
the British Government to Van Dieman's Land. They were pardoned and
returned to the United States some few years before the father's
death. DAR application papers state that Mr. Whiting saw three years
Revolutionary service as Private under Capt. Nehemiah Rice in Col.
Chandler's 8th Connecticut Regt. In I8l8, he apnlied for a pension
which was allowed. After his first wife's death, the old veteran
married three more times; his second wife, Lucinda Whiting, his
brother's widow, died Sept. 10, 1838, aged 67; his third was Mrs.
Phebe Rich, widow of Peter Rich, and his fourth, the widow of Lyman
Noble.

I have been searching for information on Jesse Wilcox of Avon, CT trying to find who his parents are.
My ancestress, Lucina/Lucinda Wilcox (dau of Jesse Wilcox & Jerusha ____) was born 9 Dec 1800 and d. 23 Dec 1867 Avon, CT. Her lst husband _____ Richards (poss. George, son of Pelatiah Richards, SR) d. ca 1825. Lucinda (Wilcox) Richards then returned to Avon, CT. with son James Richards.She m/2 6 Feb 1828 to Asaph Hart b. 1799 Avon, CT.

Lucinda had a daughter Mary Hart b. 1834 and d. 1837. Sometime around this time Asaph Hart deserted her. Lucinda is buried in the West Avon, CT. cemetery and her mother, Jerusha Wilcox is buried next to her having died 13 Jun 1808 at Avon, CT when Lucinda would have been only 8 years old. I believe my Jesse Wilcox to be the one whose will is dated 27 Sept 1843 with distribution made 22 Feb 1845 as My gr-grandfather James Richards is mentioned in this will. Other beneficiaries listed were Julia L. Richards; Nancy Hosford of Canton, CT; Seth Willcox of the State of New York; Maria Willcox of the State of New York; Juliette Reynolds of the State of New York; and Samuel Clyde.
Would love to hear from you if you know anything about this family........... Thanks, Marge in CT

I was happy to hear from you concerning Jesse Wilcox of Avon, CT. I don't know why you feel confused.
I guess I have come to the conclusion that there were 2 Jesse Wilcox's living in Avon, CT. at the same time. This is what is making it so confusing.

As I stated I have copied the distribution of the estate of Jesse Wilcox dated 22 Feb 1845. In it he names James Richards, my gr-grandfather, as a benificiery. I also copied the pages from "John Wilcox of Hartford, CT and his Descendants" by Johnston. He is as confused as we are.

I also found a reference to a Jesse Wilcox B. ca 1769; baptized 14 Apr 11773 at Amenia, Dutchess County, NY. It gives his spouse as Zephora Wetmore
(More Confusion) and his parents as Jehiel Willcox & Deborah.

Then I have another will for a Jesse Wilcox dated 15 Aug 1832

Then I have a probate record dated 20 Sept 1843 in which all persons who claimed that Jesse Wilcox owed them money were listed.
Who should be last on the list but Asaph Hart

the second husband of Lucinda (Wilcox) (Richards) Hart. He claimed that Jesse Wilcox owed him thirty pounds. So with the mention of Asaph Hart and also James Richards I'm sure that the Jesse Wilcox who died 1843 is my Jesse and not the Jesse who married 3 times and was son of Josiah Wilcox & Elizabeth Curtis. If you need copies of these documents send me your snail-mail privately and I will mail them to you. By the way, "Wilcoxson-Wilcox, Webb and Meigs Families" by Reynold Webb Wilcox gives the line of Hiel/Jehiel Wilcox and lists his children but follows only the oldest son, Nathaniel. Keep in touch and remember that there were two Jesse Wilcox living in Avon, CT at the same time. Marge in CT

Hi Marge,
This is a bit confusing. I have a family group sheet with info copied from "Your Ancestors" by Harry Ferris Johnston.
It lists Jesse Wilcox born c 1757 Farmington, CT..married (1) Rhoda Andrews 16 Dec 1788 (2) Comfort (Mix) Beck. Rhoda was the daughter of Eli Andrews and Johanna Thompson. Jesse had two children (according to Johnston) Sophia born 1791 and Lucina born 1800. Lucina married (1) ______ Richards
(2)Asaph Hart 1828.

This Jesse was the son of Josiah Wilcox 1717-1776 and Elizabeth Curtiss. Jesse left CT and went to Granville, MA.

Then I checked out IGI at www.familysearch.org. They have numerous listings for Jesse.
Jesse married Comfort PECK 5 Feb 1794 Farmington-avon, CT
Jesse married Comfort MIX c 1795 Avon, CT
Jesse married Rhoda Andruss 16 Dec 1788 Berlin, CT
Jesse b Dec 1758 Hartford..died 6 Nov 1836 s/o Josiah Wilcox and Elizabeth Curtiss.

I have more on Josiah and so does IGI. Check them out and if there's anything else I can help with let me know. I'd really like to know where Jerusha fits into all of this.

William Whiting, Warsaw
In the pioneer section of Warsaw Village cemetery there remains
a marble slab to William Whiting, born at Hartford, Conn, in ",1758s>
who died at Warsaw, March 22, I8I4.9, aged 90 years. The Wyoming
County Mirror, recording his death, stated that at the commencement
of the Revolution he lived in Connecticut, near Hartford. In 1776,
he went to New York in the militia company of Lt. George Kellogg and
Col. Chester. In April 1777> he enlisted for three years and served
under Capt. Elisha Kimball, Col. John Chandler and Col. Joseph Hoit.
He was in the battles of Germantown, Ft. Mifflin and Monmouth.
During 1781 and 1782, he was in the team service under Capt; John
Waters, Conductor of Teams.
After the Revolution, he removed with several children to Granville, N.Y., then to Hampton and from there to Warsaw in 1821. He
was an honorable man and retained his faculties up to near the end
and the time of his death. He was a member of the Baptist Church.
His wife, the mother of his children, was Abigail Flower, who died
Aug. 25, 1832, aged 73 years. One of his sons, Nathan Whiting, and
a brother-in-law, Col. Chauncey Sheldon,were among the Americans who
joined the Canadian patriots in 1837» were captured and banished by

the British Government to Van Dieman's Land. They were pardoned and

returned to the United States some few years before the father's
death. DAR application papers state that Mr. Whiting saw three years
Revolutionary service as Private under Capt. Nehemiah Rice in Col.
Chandler's 8th Connecticut Regt. In I8l8, he apnlied for a pension
which was allowed. After his first wife's death, the old veteran
married three more times; his second wife, Lucinda Whiting, his
brother's widow, died Sept. 10, 1838, aged 67; his third was Mrs.
Phebe Rich, widow of Peter Rich, and his fourth, the widow of Lyman

Dr. Barber lists four children of Delilah with dates after her death; probably children of Roxanna. Since the first two children are listed with no birth dates, it is still a question as to who their mother is, but seems likely to assign them to Delilah. Delilah Barber was born in 1797.

In the spring of 1849, Sylvester Hulet was called to help establish a fort at Provo. It was called Fort Utah. The same spring, Edwin Whiting and family left Mt. 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 months 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:

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.

I have been searching for information on Jesse Wilcox of Avon, CT trying to find who his parents are.
My ancestress, Lucina/Lucinda Wilcox (dau of Jesse Wilcox & Jerusha ____) was born 9 Dec 1800 and d. 23 Dec 1867 Avon, CT. Her lst husband _____ Richards (poss. George, son of Pelatiah Richards, SR) d. ca 1825. Lucinda (Wilcox) Richards then returned to Avon, CT. with son James Richards.She m/2 6 Feb 1828 to Asaph Hart b. 1799 Avon, CT.
Lucinda had a daughter Mary Hart b. 1834 and d. 1837. Sometime around this time Asaph Hart deserted her. Lucinda is buried in the West Avon, CT. cemetery and her mother, Jerusha Wilcox is buried next to her having died 13 Jun 1808 at Avon, CT when Lucinda would have been only 8 years old. I believe my Jesse Wilcox to be the one whose will is dated 27 Sept 1843 with distribution made 22 Feb 1845 as My gr-grandfather James Richards is mentioned in this will. Other beneficiaries listed were Julia L. Richards; Nancy Hosford of Canton, CT; Seth Willcox of the State of New York; Maria Willcox of the State of New York; Juliette Reynolds of the State of New York; and Samuel Clyde.
Would love to hear from you if you know anything about this family........... Thanks, Marge in CT

I was happy to hear from you concerning Jesse Wilcox of Avon, CT. I don't know why you feel confused. I guess I have come to the conclusion that there were 2 Jesse Wilcox's living in Avon, CT. at the same time. This is what is making it so confusing. As I stated I have copied the distribution of the estate of Jesse Wilcox dated 22 Feb 1845. In it he names James Richards, my gr-grandfather, as a benificiery. I also copied the pages from "John Wilcox of Hartford, CT and his Descendants" by Johnston. He is as confused as we are. I also found a reference to a Jesse Wilcox B. ca 1769; baptized 14 Apr 11773 at Amenia, Dutchess County, NY. It gives his spouse as Zephora Wetmore
(More Confusion) and his parents as Jehiel Willcox & Deborah.
Then I have another will for a Jesse Wilcox dated 15 Aug 1832
Then I have a probate record dated 20 Sept 1843 in which all persons who claimed that Jesse Wilcox owed them money were listed. Who should be last on the list but Asaph Hart
the second husband of Lucinda (Wilcox) (Richards) Hart. He claimed that Jesse Wilcox owed him thirty pounds. So with the mention of Asaph Hart and also James Richards I'm sure that the Jesse Wilcox who died 1843 is my Jesse and not the
Jesse who married 3 times and was son of Josiah Wilcox & Elizabeth Curtis. If you need copies of these documents send me your snail-mail privately and I will mail them to you. By the way, "Wilcoxson-Wilcox, Webb and Meigs Families" by Reynold Webb Wilcox gives the line of Hiel/Jehiel Wilcox and lists his children but follows only the oldest son, Nathaniel. Keep in touch and remember that there were two Jesse Wilcox living in Avon, CT at the same time. Marge in CT

Hi Marge,
This is a bit confusing. I have a family group sheet with info copied from "Your Ancestors" by Harry Ferris Johnston.
It lists Jesse Wilcox born c 1757 Farmington, CT..married (1) Rhoda Andrews 16 Dec 1788 (2) Comfort (Mix) Beck. Rhoda was the daughter of Eli Andrews and Johanna Thompson. Jesse had two children (according to Johnston) Sophia born 1791 and Lucina born 1800. Lucina married (1) ______ Richards
(2)Asaph Hart 1828.

This Jesse was the son of Josiah Wilcox 1717-1776 and Elizabeth Curtiss. Jesse left CT and went to Granville, MA.

Then I checked out IGI at www.familysearch.org. They have numerous listings for Jesse.
Jesse married Comfort PECK 5 Feb 1794 Farmington-avon, CT
Jesse married Comfort MIX c 1795 Avon, CT
Jesse married Rhoda Andruss 16 Dec 1788 Berlin, CT
Jesse b Dec 1758 Hartford..died 6 Nov 1836 s/o Josiah Wilcox and Elizabeth Curtiss.

I have more on Josiah and so does IGI. Check them out and if there's anything else I can help with let me know. I'd really like to know where Jerusha fits into all of this.

Notes:

1. Chauncey is listed as a co-lot owner of #19 with Frank Green at theLaurel Hill Cemetery. It is possible that he and Nancy are buried there in unmarked graves. Oddly Frank Green and Gladys are buried in lot #10with Gladys' first husband Bruce and their son Clinton. With the loss ofall cemetery records prior to the 1950's due to a fire, this informationmay never be found.

Hello Whitings, Is this list still active? I am still looking for Nathan Whiting b. Dec 1827 in NY his father was born in New Hampshire I do not know who his parents were and have a hard time trying to match him up with any of the typical Whiting lines I have found. Nathan was married to 1) Harriett Adeline Woods (or Wood) some time around 1846 or 1847 Their first child was Harriett Adeline Whiting They moved to Michigan something before 1850 and the three of them show up in the 1850 Calhoun County Michigan Census. Nathan was a farmer. Nathan and Harriett had 5 or 6 children Van Buren County, MI 1860 Columbia Township Nathan Whiting Head of household age 31 Farmer Born in New York b. 1829 Harriet A. Whiting age 29 "Domestic" Born in New York b.1831 Anson L. age 4 Born in Michigan born 1856 Harriet age 13 Born in New York born 1847 Bernice (Mark) age 2 Born in Michigan born 1858 Van Buren County, MI 1870 Columbia Township Listed in 1870 census with 5 children the census PDF file is un readable Town- Name ship Page WHITING (Columbia Township) Nathan CLT 12 age 43 born 1827 Harriet A. CLT 12 age 41 born 1829 A.S. (Anson) CLT 12 age 13 born 1857 Estella CLT 12 age 9 born 1860 W.P. (William) CLT 12 age 7 born 1863 Clarence CLT 12 age 5 born 1862 Maud (Mark Burns?) CLT 12 age 3 born 1867 And also WHITING Libbie (Female) Born11/05/1868 (but was not listed in the 1870 census) It appears Nathan and Harriett divorced in the mid 1880's. Harriett moved to Snohomish Washington with her Daughter Harriett Adeline Everts On April 6th 1887, Nathan married Effie Hubbard in Montcalm Michigan. Nathan and Effie moved to Skagit, Washington and show up in the 1900 census with youngest son Clarence J. Whiting living with them. I don't know when Nathan died (between 1900 and 1910) and can not find a record of his death in Washington state or Michigan. Their son Clarence Name: Clarence J. Whiting Death date: 20 Aug 1949 Death place: Kirkland, King, Washington In the 1910 Clear Lake, Skagit, Washington Census it lists Effie as a widow, so Nathan had to have died between 1900 and 1910I could use some help with who Nathan's parents from New Hampshire were.

Hello Scott, There may or may not be a connection here. This is what I came up with using Calhoun Co., MI and the name Anson L. Whiting: I've been researching Jeremiah Bumpus Whiting (Baumpheous, Bompasse?) 1774 - 1850. He was born in Litchfield Co., CT, married in MA, practiced medicine in VT and NY and died in Lee, Calhoun, MI. He settled for several years in the Spafford, NY area. We have found other Whitings in the Spafford/Scott area and think he might have come to NY with other family members. My late cousin's research on Spafford found a Thomas Whiting who came to Spafford in 1811with a wife and 8 children. There was also an Anson L. (Lord) Whiting who was born in Litchfield Co. CT in 1807 and came to Spafford when he was 4 years old. (I think this was from A History of Spafford 1903 by Capt. George Knapp Collins). Perhaps Anson is a family name? There was also mention of a Theophilus Whiting who was born in England and settled in CT. >From other sources, there was a Thomas Whiting (about 1777) of Spafford, NY, son of Theophilus. Thomas is buried in Onondaga Hill Cemetery, and had a son Anson Lord Whiting. The county lines have changed several times, so there may be information in Onondaga, Cayuga and/or Cortland Counties. Hope this is of some help. I'd appreciate more information on Jeremiah B. Whiting. Who were his parents and siblings? (I have some guesses but nothing verified.) He was the first of 3 generations of Jeremiah B. Whitings and I have quite a bit of info on #s 2 and 3.

Subject: [Patriots-War] Nathan Whiting
Date: Mon, 14 Jan 2002 17:26:23 EST


While researching my Timmons ancestors at the Liverpool, Onondaga County, New
York, public library, I found a book "The Liverpool Legend", by Thetis (Mrs.
Edward F). Group, the Village Historian at the time of publication in 1962.
One chapter contained information about the Patriot's War. It stated from
recollections of the late A. H. Crawford "During the Patriot War of 1838-1839
Liverpool contributed both men and means in aid of the Patriot cause." They
belonged to an organization called The Hunters, named for the famous Canadian
rebel who had conceived the idea for the liberation of Canada from the
British. A Hunters Lodge was organized and was turning out bullets for
arming the force to cross the St Lawrence River.

On Sunday, November 10, the steamer United States set out from Oswego with a
large number of men, and then stopped at Sackets Harbor where more men, many
of them from Watertown boarded. General J. Ward Birge of Cazenovia (in
Madison Co.) met them at Ogdensburg, promising 20-40,000 American recruits;
however, less than 200 were landed near Prescott. General Birge promised to
return to Ogdensburg and bring back thousands more volunteers but did not
return. In the fight that followed the Canadian militia fought against
them--not a single Canadian joined the Americans. "The American saviors of
Canada had found Canada unwilling to be saved." The small band of Americans
was captured at confined at Fort Henry near Kingston.

The book states that the following men from Liverpool were killed: William
McKellop, James Pease, James Miller, Leman Leach and Nathan Coffin. Banished
to Tasmania were Nathan Whiting, David Allen and "High" Loop.

Also written is that one historical record states that Chauncey Sheldon made
a Masonic signal of distress as he was on his knees waiting for the signal to
fire. This saved his life and that of Nathan Whiting. "Nathan Whiting's
wife, Rhoda, by law, was free to marry again. She married Richard Goodwin who
later died and when Whiting returned years later from banishment to
Liverpool, he and Rhoda were reunited."
Descendants of Nathan Whiting
Generation No. 1

1. NATHAN1 WHITING was born 1795 in Vermont, and died 1856 in Liverpool, New
York. He married RHODA TOLES. She was born 1805, and died 1850. They are
buried in Liverpool Cemetery.

Children of NATHAN WHITING and RHODA TOLES are:
2. i. LUCY JANE2 WHITING, b. March 12, 1832, Liverpool,
Onondaga County, New York; d. November 30, 1885, Corydon,Wayne, Iowa.
ii. MARY WHITING, b. 1838.

Generation No. 2

2. LUCY JANE2 WHITING (NATHAN1) was born March 12, 1832 in Liverpool,
OnondagaCounty, New York, and died November 30, 1885 in Corydon, Wayne, Iowa.
She married NICHOLAS TIMMONS August 04,1850 in New York, son of OWEN TIMMONS
and CATHERINE ROGERS. He was born June 16, 1830 in County Meath, Ireland,
and died January 12, 1902 in Corydon, Wayne, Iowa.

1855 NY State Census
Nicholas Timons, 25 m born in Ireland, years resided 16.
Wife Jane, 22, born Onondaga, years resided 17.
Son Edwin Timons, 3, born Onondaga
Also in same house Julia Goodwin, 14, F, Boarder,born Onondaga, years resided
14.
Nathan Whiting, 60, M,Boarder, born Vermont, widowed
Mary Whiting, 17, F,Boarder, born Onondaga, years resided 17.
James Timons, 16, M, Boarder, born Cayuga, years resided 16.

Note that Roda Toles apparently had a daughter, Julia, by Mr. Goodwin while
Nathan Whiting was in Tasmania. By the time of the 1855 Census Rhoda had
died and Julia was living with Nathan Whiting, her half-sister, Mary Whiting
and the Timons family.

I am not related to Nathan Whiting. I am a descendent of James Timmons. I
have a cousin who is a descendent of Nathan and Rhoda Whiting, and Nicholas
and Jane Timmons. She is not on the net and has asked me to find out more
information about her side of the Timmons family.

There is quite a bit more information in the book but I was unable to find
out if the book was copywrited. An account about Niles Szoltevki Von
Schoultz, a Polish chemist who came to Liverpool, and who was hanged for his
part in the conspiracy was most interesting.

Delilah Barber1
b. 1797, d. 13 October 1833
Dr. Barber lists four children of Delilah with dates after her death; probably children of Roxanna. Since the first two children are listed with no birth dates, it is still a question as to who their mother is, but seems likely to assign them to Delilah. Delilah Barber was born in 1797. She was the daughter of Job Barber and Lola Mills. Delilah Barber married Erastus Whiting. Delilah Barber died on 13 October 1833.

The greater part of the Hulet family, together with their grandson and nephew, William E. Whiting, his wife and young son arrived in Jackson County, Missouri in 1832. Lyman Wight and Christian Whitmer lived six miles west of Independence. The Hulets became their neighbors. That would indicate that the Hulets lived about six miles west of the Big Blue River.

All of the tragic events recorded in the Documentary History of the Church of the first four days in November 1833 cannot be repeated here. (D.H.C. Vol. I pages 247- 431)

Before and After Mt. Pisgah page 74-75
Monday November 4th, a mob of about one hundred armed men took possession of the Latter-day Saint ferryboat on the Big Blue. They soon abandonded the ferry and went ton west to Wilson's store. Nineteen young Mormons from west of there heard that their help was needed. Approaching the store, they saw that they were greatly outnumbered. They fled back west again with the mobbers in pursuit. The young men hid in the corn fields at the Whitmer Settlement sometimes called the Settlement on the Blue. It should be remembered that the Whitmers were witnesses to the Book of Mormon. The mob held Christian Whitmer prisoner, threatening him with death if he did not tell where the young men were.
With the mob molesting the families at the Whitmer Settlement, David Whitmer and Newel Knight rushed to the Coleville Branch (about three miles west) and called for help. Among those standing guard at the mill were Philo Dibble and Henry A. Cleveland. They and some others went immediately to the relief at the Whitmer Settlement. By that time the mob was tearing down the house of Christian Whitmer. It was about sunset. David Whitmer divided the Mormon men into two groups. Known to be in the Mormon company of about 30 men were: the Whitmers, David and Jacob, also Charles Hulet, Sylvester Hulet, Nathan West and their nephew William Whiting, Hyrum Page, King Follet, John Forman, John Poorman, Sheffield Daniels, Andrew Barber, Philo Dibble, Henry A. Cleveland, also Father Brace, a Revolutionary soldier. (Those were later listed by Philo Dibble -- 5 April 1861.)....
Seeing the approach of the Mormons, Brazeale shouted, "The Mormons are for fight: give them hell!" Two or three guns were then fired by the mobbers. The Mormons answered with a general discharge. Brazeale and Thomas Linvill of the mob were Killed. The mob fired again and Henry Cleveland was wounded in the shoulder. Philo Dibble was hit in the abdomen with an ounce ball and two buckshot. Jacob Whitmer was wounded in the wrist and William Whiting in the foot.

Before and After Mt. Pisgah page 80
The details of how William Whiting escaped out of the area, being wounded, with a wife and three small children, were ot kept in family records. Neither was the story told of the sufferings ofhis aged grandmother, Mary Lewis Hulet, when she fled from Jackson County.

Before and After Mt. Pisgah page 85.
William Whiting died in Clay County, Missouri 21 October 1834 and left Lydia with three small children.

William Whiting, Edwin’s oldest brother, (*5) has been reported being killed during the “Battle of the Blue”, but Lydia, his wifes account helps explain his death a year after the battle. “The mob came with a large company hunting for and shooting at our men: they feeling it their duty to stand in the defense of their wives and [----] children, as well as themselves, returned the fire. My husband [----} received a ball through his foot, which mangled the bones and caused him great distress and it was a great while a healing and I fear his hardships and privations was the cause of his death which happened the next October…My husband was ever afflicted with the same until his death.

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.

After having read the foregoing quote I would assume that Melvin, Alvin, and Francis Whiting were born and died at Springville or Mapleton and were buried someplace in the area.

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.

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. Alpheus 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.

Almon G. Bruce, M.D. This gentleman is one of the prominent medical men of Albion, to which place he came a fe years since in order that his children might have the benefit of attendance at Albion College. He had previously practiced his profession within the bound of the "State and had the many calls of a busy and successful man. He comes of good old stock, and by inheritance and training the many traits of character and mental abilities of his progenitors have been strengthened and developed in him, making him a worthy representative of the family.
Jesse Bruce, grandfather of our subject, was a resident of Franklin County, Vermont, where on April 29, 1815, the father of our subject was born. This child was christened Augustus S. and was six years of age when his parents changed their residence to Hiram, Ohio. There he grew to maturity and married Jane Fidelia Whiting, a native of the Buckeye State, who bore him two children, Almon G, and Robert L. The latter served three years during the Civil War, in the Fourteenth Michigan Infantry; he died January 8, 1871. The wife and mother passed away in 1846, and Augustus Bruce subsequently married Miss Jane Hare. This lady was a daughter of Jacob Hare, the first settler of Columbus, Ohio, and the maker of the original plat of that city. Mr. Hare accumulated a large property, and eventually became quite wealthy and at his death willed all of his property to the needy and destitute of the city of Columbus, Ohio; the estate was valued at $200,000 and the city built of this fund what is known as Hare’s Orphan Asylum. Mr. Bruce was a Whig until the Republican party was organized, when he gave it his support, affiliating with it until his death. That event transpired in 1868.
....
In Quincy, Illinois, November 6, 1844, Almon G. Bruce opened his eyes to the light of day. His school days were spent in Medina County, Ohio, and he gained a good knowledge of the branches taught in the common and high schools. Young as he was when the Civil War began, he was roused to enthusiasm and nothing but his youth prevented him from taking his stand with the defenders of his country. As soon as it was possible to do so he entered the army, enlisting for three months and being enrolled in Company G, Eighty-sixth Ohio Infantry. Going into Virginia the company did guard duty until their time had expired and they were mustered out. In July, 1864, young Bruce again enlisted and as a member of Company C. One Hundred and Seventy-sixth Ohio Infantry, took his place in front of Nashville, Tenn. He was detailed as clerk at gen. Rousseau's headquarters and retained the position until the close of the war.
Returning to his Buckeye home Mr. Bruce began reading medicine in the office of Dr. Henry Warner, a prominent physician of Spencer. In 1866 he began attending lectures in Charity Hospital Medical College at Cleveland, Ohio from which he received his degree in 1870. Three years later he left the buckeye State to establish his home in Corunna, Michigan, where he worked up a good practice. In 1882 he removed to Detroit and a year later came to Albion. Here, as before stated, he has taken a high stand among medical men and secured a large following of citizens. He is earnest and thoughtful in all that pertains to his profession, expending his time and energy upon it to the fullest extent. He is a Prohibitionist, an outspoken and earnest worker in the cause of temperance and has received a number of nomnations for office in the city and in the State legislature and Congress ast different times.
In Spencer, Ohio, the marriage rights were solemnized between Dr. Bruce and Permelia A, daughter of the Rev. Abel Wood. The bride was born in 1851, in the town win which her wedding was celebrated. She is well informed, devoted to her family, and possess the character that wins and retains friendship. The children born to dr. and Mrs. Bruce are three in number, named respectively, Carrie Maude, Lottie E. and Bessie. The elder is now the wife of Professor E. C. Glen, of the Upper Peninsular Business College in Marquette this State. She is a young lady of cultuire, having been graduated from AlbionCollege in 1889. Socially the Doctor is Past Commander of E. W Holing Post No. 210, G. A.R., and has been a member of the Masonic order since 1865 and is now the High Priest of Albion Chapter, No. 32, R.A.M. also Three Illustrious Master of Albion Council No. 57, R & S Masters. He and his family are all members of the Methodist Episcopal church in which the Doctor is Steward.

===========================================
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. Alpheus 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.
