  • Notes: 

  • Some have said that Ruth was Ruth Reed the wife of John Whitman's son also named John. However that cannot be as the eldest child for son John and his wife Ruth (Reed) Whitman was born in 1663, after this Ruth’s death. So Ruth, wife of John Whitman, must be the wife of the elder John Whitman.
