child of Freeborn Garrettson Hibbard and Mary Whipple (NOT Maria Hyde the 2nd wife)..."their two lovely children were taken to the Father's house." William died 18 Feb 1843 according to his mother's diary. "He was only 19 months old at the time." His sister Harriet died just a month later from the same fever.

little is known of this infant son of Freeborn Garrettson Hibbard and his first wife Mary Whipple, except that his mother was devoted to teaching her children daily prayer, so even when he could not speak as an infant child, he "would lead his mother by the hand to kneel in prayer", so states Freeborn in his Memoriam of Mary Whipple, his wife.
