HARTFORD FAMILY OF WHITING.
For a genealogical account of the descend-
ants of CoL Vkzz'//iam Vp_iling, the founder of
Hartford, Conn., and his wife Susanna, who
came over herd probably in 1633, see " Good-
win's History" of the family; also " Hunter's
Tract," 3 Mass. Hist. Coll., " Farmer's Register,"
and "Savage's Genealogical Dictionary." The
descendants of this eminent progenitor are very
numerous, and several of them have been dis-
tinguished. Many, if not most, of the families of
this name, in Connecticut and in Western
Massachusetts, have sprung from him.
Inquiries have frequently been made, whether
any connection could be traced between the
three Whiting families of Rev. Samuel Whi-
ting of Lynn, Col. William Whiting of Hart-
ford, and Nathaniel Whiting of Dedham. Thus
far no relationship has been discovered between
them. T._. family of Rev. Samuel Whiting
belonged tq Boston, in the county of Lincoln ;
