Transcription: WILLIAM WHITING
WILLIAM WHITING, one of the early settlers of Hartford, is mentioned in the histories of this country as early as 1632 or 3. 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, &c." Mr. Whiting retained his interest in Piscataqua till his death. 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." In 1642 he was chosen one of the Magistrates; 1641, Treasurer of the Colony, which office be retained till 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." He bore the title of Major in 1647. William Whiting died July, 1647.* [His widow, Susannah, married, 1650, Mr. Samuel Fitch, of Hartford, by whom she had two sons. Mr. Fitch died 1659, and she married 3. Mr. Alexander Bryan, of Milford. She died at Middletown, at the house of her daughter, Mrs. Collins, and was buried there July 8, 1673.]
