      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 ."
