Virginla, Kings Town, R I.
He is said to have been of wealthy parents and to have had a collegiate aducation ; in support of which he is quoted as saving that " till he was eighteen year old, he knew not what it. was to want a servant to altemi him with al silver ewer and napkin whenever he wanted to wash his hands."
He came to Virginia before he had reached his majority and serve I there in a military caps- city, but soon returned to England and was an officer in the Parliamentary army.
1649. His regiment took part in the execution of King Chuky I.
1600. Virginia. He came again from England and married while in Virginia, where part of his children were horn. 1690. Kings Town. He came thence about this time, bis departure from Virginia. | being occasioned by a difference in religious views from his neighbors, he being a Baptist. | His residence was near the head of Pettaquam- scut Poad in what is now South Kingstown.
He lived by fishing. wraving and teaching. being conversant with Hebrew, Greck and Latin, and his services as a penman were brought into requisition in executing the deeds and papers of his neighbors.
The visits ot distinguished men from Boston and other places, and his silence in regard to his previous history, perhaps account for the persistently held tradition that he was one of the regicide judges and had signed the death warrant of King Charles.
Much of mystery still clings to his history not-i withstanding the great service done by Rev. Dr. Stiles, in his account of this interesting personage. The town record rives but sparse | items concerning him, and he seemed to shrink from public office, though he occasionally appears as witness to a will or deed.
It has been conjectured that Theophilus Whaley may have been identical with Robert Whaley, a brother of Edward, the Regici:le, and that he may have changed his name for some ressous connected with the execution of King Charles. 1687. Sep. 6. Tased 3s., 11d.
1710, Jan. 30. He had 120 acres in East Green- wich, conveyed to him from the proprietors of the tract of land now comprising West Green- wich.

The accounts about him arc rather conflicting.

(It is noticeable too, that a Samuel Hopkins was at Voluntown, Ct., as early as 1721, when he held the office of Selectman, and was on a committee in regard to a tax for support of a minister, &c.
