The Whiting Family Crest
The Reverend Samuel Whiting, D.D., the emigrant, came from Boston, county Lincoln, England, to North America, in 1636, and died at Lynn, Mass., in 1679. He was the son of John Whiting Mayor of Old Boston (1600 and 1608). The family arms were verified at the Heralds' Visitation of 1619. An early ancestor of the family was William Whiting, also of Old Boston, whose name is found on a Subsidy Roll (tempo, Edward III.). The bookplate we saw in the Lichtenstein Collection had no motto.
