John, the first American Immigrant Whitney, son of
Thomas Whitney, was born in 1589 in Isleworth Parish, not far
from London; by the Thames River. John married Elinor and
began their family in 1619.

In April 1635; John, his wife, Elinor and five sons
booked passage to America. The ship was the Elizabeth and Ann
with Roger Cooper, The ships Master. John was 56 years old;
Elinor quite a few years younger. After they landed in the new
land (1635) Joshua was born at Watertown, Massachusetts Colony.

Studying the usual reasons for most of the people
leaving for the new world, we find neither religion, freedom
of persons, or political reasons, to have made John decide to
come to the new world and it's hardships. They already had
wealth and position in the land where they lived. Maybe it
was the adventure in his character. However, it could have
been the promise of the vast lands to be claimed for the working.

Elinor b. 1599- died in 1659, but John lived until the
age of 85. He remarried to Judah Clements on 29 Sept 1659. On
June 1, 1673, John also succumbed leaving his worldly goods to
his sons, that by now totaled eight. This included 212 acres.
John had been a tax collector, constable and statesman in the
Colony. The Whitneys were a prominent family in the Colony.
The Whitney boys had by this time married and started their own
families. Benjamin had sold his portion of his Dad's estate
to Joshua, before his father's death and with his approval, as
he moved to Harvard with his wife and couldn't care for his
Father until his death as requested. They became very famous
and well known throughout the manufacturing industry, arts, music,
railroads, mining, schools, politicians, bankers, professors, farmers,
ministers; the list goes on and on:

Following is a schedule of John and Elinor, their sons,
and their descendents:

BEFORE 1602-- The territory of Maine belonged to the
savages and beasts. It was 1603 before civilized man arrived.
Bartholomew Gosnold, an English navigator, was the first to
see and chart; but he made an error in his charting concerning
the altitude of the points of land. However he received much
respect for his work. The honor of discovery went to Martin
Pring in 1603.

In the beginning Maine was a part of the Massachusettes
territory, along with other portions of states.

Gorham was first settled in 1740-the first baptist
church in Gorham was built in 1768. In 1796 it appears that the
population was not in fellowship in the church and they probably
became freewill baptists. It is quite certain that they never
became of any associational body to the baptist church.

A small baptist church was organized in Hollis--formerly
Phillipsburg on August 20, 1805 (not our town of Phillips).

The first permanent settlement in Maine was in Saco;
in 1623, and the first seat of Government in the Province.

It is quite evident that the Whitney family was not
coming to America in hardship or because of repression. They
had both title and wealth. Therefore we must look to the other
reasons. It could be adventure and opportunity. For they did
prosper in this new land and became known in almost every faucet
and field of endeavor.

The puritan's were the ones who came over as the reli-
gious pioneers who really were set out to make changes in the
government of holy organization of the churches. However, they
found the long arm of the King still had influence on their lives.
If the hardships of life in the new colony had not been so great,
they may have dissented sooner and the revolutionary war may have
been fought earlier. But as it was, it took so much of their time
and energy just to stay warm, fed and housed; they had little time
left. Most of the early settlements were on the coast and when
they started spreading out, they used the many waterways because
of the rough terrain. The rough land and many trees and shrubbery
made it difficult to make roads for land passage. The winters
were harsh and there were alot of marshy areas inland and around
the coastline. However, the determination and hard work of the
immigrants conquered the land, savages and the beasts.
