"Joseph (3) was born Newport 3 July 1725. d. 1761 (Arnold 7:82). Dep u ty Governor 1749-1754. Joseph had financial trouble. In 1753, he mortga ge d the family farm in Middletown, next community to Newport. (Land /evi den ce, Middletown, 1:175-180). It was 61 acres with a large house. Betwe en D ec. 1753 and Mar. 225,075 pounds were raised form the sale of more t han 5 00 acres if Whipple property in Middletown (need citation).On 2 No v 1754 , he resigned as Deputy Governor (Barltlett 5:377)
"According to the Newport Mercury of 29 March 1915, in 1761, Josep h W hipple, former deputy governor, became intemperate and was drowned fr om t he Point Bridge [in Newport] while returning from the theatre on th e Poin t.[The Point is the oldest settled area of Newport]."
GOVERNMENT: Deputy Governor of Rhode Island, 1749-1954. --Charles M. Whi p ple
SOURCE: Email from Charles M. Whipple, Jr., to Weldon Whipple, 4 Oct 200 3 . Charles writes: "I am now convinced that Lieutenant Governor Joseph W hi pple Jr. was Anglican not Quaker. I received a reply from Harvard Univ ers ity finally. His son, William, graduated in 1749 at the head of his c lass . His biography notes that he was indeed Church of England as was Co l. Jo seph Whipple, his father. So, although Lieutenant Governor Joseph W hippl e III and his mother, as well as some siblings may have been Quaker s, a t least it is now known that this was indeed a religiously mixed mar riage ."
