Facts and Events
BIOGRAPHY: Pamphlet from Charles C. Whittier (author of Descendants) sent to Cora May Whitcher, with letter from him. BIOGRAPHY: "Reuben Whittier or Whitcher made his home in his native town, Salisbury, until his death at the age of 36 in 1722 a few months after the death of his father." [Pamphlet] BIOGRAPHY: "He was a member of the Salisbury Militia and was imprest for Her Majesties' service in the field in 1710. His seven children were baptized at the West Church, Salisbury, December 2, 1722. In a few years after his death his children left their native place, and with many others, settled the frontier towns of New Hampshire, halting a few years, as if for renewed strength, they and their descendants, started in different directions in search of homes, some going as far north as Canada, while others turned their faces eastward and journeyed until they founded settlements in Maine."
