RESIDENCES: Lived in Glocester, Rhode Island. --C.A.H. Newton; accordi n g to C.M. Whipple, Jr., he lived in Smithfield, R.I. (not Glocester) ; h e "left Rhode Island in about 1718" -- C.M. Whipple, Jr.
CHILDREN: According to Clair A. Hemenway Newton, Captain John Whipple, 1 6 17-1685, and His Descendants (Naperville, Ill., 1946), p. 52, Thomas a n d Abigail had three additional children, named Enoch, Daniel and Noah . Ch arles M. Whipple, Jr., in email to Weldon Whipple dated 13 Jan 2005 , sugg ests otherwise. He writes:
I have been diligently searching the records for Noah, Enoch, and Da n iel, the supposed sons of Thomas Senior (636). I am presently writin g o n his history and have entitled it--from the Louquisset Meadows to Th omas ' Pond. I have come to the conclusion that that they never existed . Do yo u know off hand where the present information on the website wa s obtained ? I think Newton took her source from Jillson. I would like t o hypothesiz e what might have happened. The sons of Noah (635) were als o Noah, Enoch , and Daniel. Could it be that they were mistakenly added t o Thomas? .. . McGuigan, (p. 36) the most authoritative source on the Sam uel Whipple f amily I've consulted, does not know of these three sons o f Thomas. | Whipple, Thomas (I727)

Church membership at Dorchester: Sarah Whipple, on 29 October 1641, addr e ssed as "Goodwife Whipple," one of the lowest social class distinction s , was admitted to the Dorchester church. [Records of the First Churc h a t Dorchester in New England, 1636-1734 (Boston: George H.

John Whipple sold his 45 acre Dorchester property, 15 November 1658: "Jo h n Whipple, carpenter...his now dwelling house and housements scituate a n d being in Dorchester near the river Naponset together with thirty-sev e n acres of upland more or less thereto adjoining, also eight acres of s al t marsh more or less lying near the place commonly called the penny fe rry ." Suffolk Land Records, Deeds, 14 vols. (Boston: 1880-1906) 3:204-05 . A s quoted in: Charles Whipple, A History of Captain John and Sarah Whi pple ... 16.
Church membership at Providence: "Was it coincidence that one month aft e r the proclamation of the death penalty for Quakers, 19 October 1658, J oh n sold his property...and began preparation to leave for Rhode Island , th e only safe haven in New England for members of that sect? However , it i s just as conceivable that Captain John could have become disenthr alled w ith religion in general." Irvin Richman, Rhode Island, Its Makin g and Mea ning (New York: B.P. Putnam Sons, 1908) 292.
"He was received as a preacher at Providence in 1659." This quote, whi c h appears only in [Representative Men and Old Families of Rhode Islan d , 3 vols (Chicago: J.H.J. Beers and Company, 1908) III:1639] is an appa re nt miss-reading, by the compiler or editor, of the well known statemen t t hat appeared in earlier histories, "He was received as a proprietor a t Pr ovidence in 1659." There is no record that Captain John Whipple or h is ch ildren were members of the clergy. As quoted in: Charles Whipple , A Histo ry of Captain John and Sarah Whipple... 15-16.
Captain John Whipple's tavern: John's short lived, one room, Inn was n o t "staid or sober," nor was it a particularly popular meeting place a s ch ronicled in previous histories. That honor belongs to John Whipple J unior 's tavern. At least three of John's children and four grandsons own ed mor e popular taverns. However, John's was the best known of the two e arlies t taverns. [Gertrude Kimball, Providence in Colonial Times (Boston : Hough ton Mifflin Company, 1912) 126. As quoted in: Charles Whipple , A Histor y of Captain John and Sarah Whipple... 23.
John Whipple's military title: His title of "Captain" was strictly honor a ry. There is no record that he or his compatriots, including Roger Will ia ms, used a weapon against the warring Indians of 1675/76 (the Indian s ref used to take up arms against Williams), or ever led a group of me n into b attle as an officer. [Early Records of the Town of Providence, 2 1 vols, c ollected and compiled by the Record Commissioners (Providence : Snow and F arnham, city printers, 1892-1915). XV:153.] As quoted in: Ch arles Whipple , A History of Captain John and Sarah Whipple... 25.
Last Will and Testament: John's last Will and Testament was flawed, whi c h allowed his grandson, John Whipple III, to win a law suit against fo u r of his Whipple uncles. They had to pay him hundreds of dollars to ret ai n their inherited properties. [The Early Records of the Town of Provid enc e, 21 vols, collected and compiled by the Records Commissioners (Prov iden ce: Snow and Farnham, city printers, 1892-1915) XX:274-75.] As quote d in : Charles Whipple, A History of Captain John and Sarah Whipple... 25 -27.
The deaths of John and Sarah Whipple: John and Sarah's gravestones wer e c arved around the year 1750, subsequent to the removal of their remain s t o the North Burial Grounds. Sarah died in 1666, being dead then for a ppro ximately 85 years before her gravestone was carved. Moreover, John w oul d have been dead for approximately 65 years in 1750. A lack of accura te a nd complete cemetery information was the result. Those who had acces s t o the truth were long since deceased themselves. Well-meaning descend ants , likely their grandsons, Deputy Governor Joseph Junior and his brot her , John, were insufficiently prepared to carry out Captain John's 168 2 dir ective to their father to see to it that "I be decently buried." I t mus t be pointed out that John and Sarah's gravestones are recognized t o be t he earliest dated in the cemetery. [John E. Sterling, North Buria l Ground , Old Section, 1700-1848, Special Publication #5 (Providence: Rh ode Islan d Genealogical Society, 2000) xii. As quoted in: Charles Whippl e, A Histo ry of Captain John and Sarah Whipple... 28-31.
SOURCE: Dr. Charles M. Whipple, in an email to the Whipple Website dat e d 11 Mar 2021, cites Representative Men and Old Families of Rhode Isla n d (Chicago: J.H. Beers, 1908), 3:1676-1677 as the only known source th a t gives Sarah's maiden name They. Suggesting that evidence to positive l y identify Sarah's maiden name is as yet inconclusive, he writes:
Three hundred years of anecdotal and theoretical primary research attemp t s have proven to be of no use whatsoever in explicating the mystery o f Sa rah's wayward surname that appears on the Whipple marriage certifica te o f 1638. I therefore undertook an empirical attempt, using the above- cite d 1908 secondary source--the only known source that gives her name a s "Th ey"--to determine Sarah's maiden name once and for all. I advance d the po ssibility of the standalone name "They," or a proximate varian t of the na me, "Theyer," having conceivably been Sarah’s name. The evide nce proved e ncouraging yet indeterminate.
