  • Notes 
    • According to William Richard Cutter, in his New England Families Genealogical and Memborial: Vol. IV, Nathaniel is mentioned in the will of his grandfather, John Smith, who bequeathed to his mother Sarah Smith Whiting, lands in Hoxden, county Middlesex England. He had a brother Samuel Whiting, also mentioned in this will.

      Nathaniel Whiting had a grant of 10 acres in Lynn in 1638. Nathaniel
      was admitted into the First Church of Dedham on 30 Jul 1641. He was
      made a freeman on 18 May 1642.

      Leave was granted in 1683 by the Town of Dedham for Nathaniel Whiting
      and his son-in-law James Draper to erect a fulling mill. The mill
      also was used as a saw mill.

      It was on the date of his death that the town empowered an agreement
      between Nathaniel Whiting and James Draper, Jr. to build a fulling
      mill.

      (The date of their marriage is given in the town records as Nov. 4, not March 4, as the Dictionary gives it.)

      Savage's Genealogical Dictionary, Vol. 4, p. 519 and 520
       NATHANIEL, Dedham, had a grant of land in Lynn, 1638, but was of Denham 1641, freeman,18 May 1642, m. 4 Mar. 1643, Hannah, eldest daughter of John Dwight of the same, had Nathaniel, b. 7 bapt. 29 Sept. 1644; John, 29 Sept. bapt. 11 Oct. 1646, prob. d. soon; another John, next yr. died soon; another son 30 Dec. 1649, whose name eludes me, although Goodwin calls him
      Samuel, b. 20 Nov.; Hannah, 17, bapt. 22  Feb. 1652; Timothy, b. 5 Jan1653; Mary, 8 July 1656, d. soon;  Mary, again, 12, bapt. 24 Oct. 1658; Sarah, 3 Dec. 1660; Abigail, 7 June

      more.  Goodwin adds Judah, b. 20 Mar. 1670; and Ann, 25 Feb. 1672.  I 
      suppose he lived in that part which became Medfield.
