WHITTEMORE.
THOMAS WHITTEMORE, of Charlestown, Mass., is generally looked upon as the emigrant ancestor of the entire Whittemore family in the United States. While this has not been positively proved, and perhaps cannot be, it is yet extremely probable. It is certain that no other emigrant ancestor bearing the name has been discovered, though quite extended investigations have been made by various persons in different branches of the family for the express purpose of looking up the family pedigree. Thomas, the emigrant, was from Hitchin, in the county of Hertford, England, ab. thirty miles north of London. From the parish rec. of the town it is understood that his grandfather was William Whittemore ; his father Thomas, and his mother Mary. Williamb was b. ab. 1540, and m. in 1566. Thomasª and Mary were m. in 1591. She d. in Dec.,

1604, and he in Apr., 1617. By his will, dated May 5, 1613, he " gave £20 to Trustees for the best sort of the poor people in Hitchin." Edward Stowell Whittemore,* a lawyer of Sandwich, Mass., and s. of Prescott Whittemore, formerly a resident of Rindge, N. H., obtained copies from the parish rec. of Hitchin of items pertaining to the W. family from 1560 to 1650, which were published in the N. E. Hist. and Gen. Register, vol. 21, pp. 169-172.
THOMAS1 was one of the earliest settlers in Charlestown, and located in that part which was subsequently in Malden and is now in the town of Everett. His s. John was bapt. in Hitchin, Feb. 11, 1639, and in 1645 he bought a piece of meadow adjoining his farm in C., which shows that he came to this country between the dates given. It is prob. that he came over in 1640 or 1641. He was m. 3 times, and had 1 ch. by his 1st w .. > by the 2d, and 10 by the 3d. Of the ch. I. Sarah ; II. Mary ; III. Thomas ; IV. Daniel ; v. John, d. y .; VI. Nathaniel, and VII. John, were b. in H .; and VIII. Elizabeth ; Ix. Benjamin ; X. Thomas ; XI. Samuel ; XII. Pelatiah, and XIII. Abraham, in C. Thomas, the father, d. in C. (Mal- den), May 25, 1661. We see in this family the uncommon circum- stance of two persons bearing the same name and alive at the same time. The terms of the father's will show that when the will was made, the 2 s. named Thomas were both living, one in England and one in this country. It will be noticed that the older Thomas was by the 2d w. and the younger one by the 3d w. The homestead remained in possession of the family until May 1, 1845, over 200 y.
2 JOHN2, s. of Thomas1, bapt. in Hitchin, Feb. 11, 1639 ; d. in Cam- bridge, Mass., Dec. 8, 1694 ; m. (1st) Mary, dau. of Dea. John and Elizabeth Upham, and had ch. I. John ; II. Thomas ; III. Joseph ; IV. Benjamin ; v. Elizabeth ; VI. Nathaniel, and VII. Joel, d. y .; m. (2d) Mary Miller. by whom he had ch. VIII. Joel ; IX. Mary, d. y .; x. Pela- tiah ; XI. Amos ; XII. Mary ; XIII. Daniel ; XIV. Rebecca ; xv. Hannah.

5 JOIN5, s. of John4, bapt. in the 2d Chh., Boston, May 16, 1714 : m. June 3, 1742, Lydia Clough, who d. Jan. 15, 1750, a. 31 y. The will of John4, made in 1747, refers to the 2 s. of his s. John, but does not give their names. It is quite sure that their names were William and John, and that a third ch., Josiah, was b. after the d. of the grand- father. Ch. I.
