  • Notes 
    • !SOURCE: Email from Ward Whipple (email hidden) to Weldon Whipple, 11 Feb 1998. Gives birth 5 May 1695.

      !SOURCE: Clair A. Hemenway Newton, Captain John Whipple 1617-1685 and his descendants and Ralph Hemmenway Records (Naperville, Ill., 1946), p. 5. Gives birth 5 Mar 1695.

      !SOURCE: History of Providence County Rhode Island, edited by Richard M. Bayles (New York: W.W. Preston, 1891), 2:468-469, under biographical sketches, Town of Lincoln. Extracted by Marcia Carr Carvalho, Lincoln, Rhode Island, and posted to the email hidden mailing list, 10 Aug 1999.

      !SOURCE: Ruth Story Devereux Eddy, The Eddy Family in America (Boston: Eddy Family Association, 1930), p. 85.

      !CONFLICT: Sources seem to confuse this Hannah with RIN 6115. C.A. Hemenway Newton (p. 6) lists a daughter named Sarah Arnold (b. 1718), who married Nathaniel Jillson (d. 1785). Are they the same person?

      !CONFLICT: R.S.D. Eddy gives her marriage date 22 Feb 1738 in Smithfield, Rhode Island, citing Vital Records. Other sources, however, give her death on 1 Apr 1727.

      !BIRTH: Carlton E. Wheeler (email hidden) points out (7 Jul 1999) that Hannah's birth on 5 May 1695 would have been when her father, Job, was only 11 years old.

      !MARRIAGE: "Uriah's second wife was Hannah, widow of William Arnold and daughter of Job Whipple." --R.M. Bayles. R.S.D. Eddy shows Hannah married to (1) Nathaniel Eddy, (2) William Arnold, and (3) Uriah Mowry.

      !SOURCE: GEDCOM from Kristin Fein (email hidden) to the Whipple Website, 4 Aug 2000.

      !SOURCE: "Evidence for Believing Barneville Whipple, Alias, Barnable B. Whipple, Alias Barney Whipple was Descended from John & Sarah Whipple of Providence, R.I." mailed to the Whipple Website by Gerry Yost, 1 Feb 2001. Gives birth about 1716.

      !SOURCE: Email from N. Combs to the Whipple Website, 10 Aug 2001. Norma writes:
      "It seems that there are two Hannah Whipples here, and that (possibly) William Arnold (1695-?) married both of them, again an aunt-niece relationship (if I've correctly posted my data).

      "The first Hannah Whipple, d/o Eleazer and Alice (Angell), b. abt 3/5/1695 from her age of 32-0-6 when she died 4/1/1727 (Arnold's VR), married William Arnold (s/o John and Mary (Mowry) Arnold) 12/27/1717 in Providence, RI (Arnold's VR). William and this Hannah are the parents of five children whose births are recorded in Smithfield, RI (Arnold's VR). After her death William Arnold married Margaret Capron (5/5/1729), Hannah Hayword (4/1/1740), and Hannah Whipple (5/18/1755). These marriages took place in Smithfield, RI and all are recorded in Arnold's VR.

      The Hannah Whipple who married William Arnold in 1755 is the d/o Job and Silence (Pray) Whipple, but she most likely was not born in 1695 as Silence was born abt 1681 (per her tombstone). The first marriage record I have for this Hannah Whipple is to Nathaniel Eddy on 2/22/1738/39 in Smithfield (Arnold's VR). She is listed in this record as Hannah Whipple, d/o Capt. Job Whipple, so it would appear that this is her first marriage. She (Hannah Eddy) next marries William Arnold on 5/18/1755 in Smithfield, RI (Arnold's VR). The last marriage I show for her (Hannah Arnold, d/o Job Whipple) is to Uriah Mowry (of Henry) on 12/28/1773 in Smithfield, RI (Arnold's VR).
