6. Capt John6 Whittingham (Daniel5, William4, William3, William2, Seth1)

Whittingham John, Ipswich 1637, Artillery Co. 1638, posthumous son of Baruch and grandson of William, the distinguished reformer in England, exiled for his faith in the days of Mary, and rewarded in the following reign with the deanery of Durham, was from Southerton near Boston County Lincoln, where he owned estate, married Martha, daughter of William Hubbard of the same, sister of the historian of New England-- was Ensign 1644, Lieutenant 1645 and Captain a short time, and died early 1649 - Strange looseness in this family story of the Boston Weekly Journal of Jan 1730 is read in Genealogical Register XI 26 (though unnoticed by the editor ) would lead us to believe that his mother " came over and was delivered of a son whom she named John" whereas he must have been born a dozen years, probably 40 years before New England was settled. Wretched blunder too is his mother with daughter instead of sister of Rev William Hubbard, where after having six children here, he died before the venerable historian had any daughter to give him.
