General Notes: Husband - [Ancestor] Whiting

---

The Whitings, Whitins or Whitons of New England are descended for the most part from three immigrant ancestors who are not known to be closely related. The surname is of English origin, and has many different spellings in the ancient English records, such as Whiton, Whiting, Witton, Wyton, Whitton and Wheaton. The Whitin family of Whitinsville, Massachusetts, and many prominent Whiting families are descended from Nathaniel Whiting, mentioned below. The most noted of the Whiting immigrants was Rev. Samuel Whiting, who was born in Boston, Lincolnshire, England, in 1597, son of John Whiting, once mayor of that city. Rev. Samuel Whiting was graduated from Emanuel College, was rector of the parish of Skirbeck, adjoining Boston, until 1635, when he came to Lynn, Massachusetts, and was chosen pastor of the church there; his son Samuel became minister of the church at Billerica.
