RE: Jerusha Bingham, in letter from Walter F. Bingham; p. 103
BINGHAM.-In the REGISTER for July, 1860 (xiv.245), the statement is made Jerusha Bingham, the mother of John Thornton Kirkland, President of Harvard College, was the daughter of Jabez Bingham, of Salisbury, Conn. This is an error. Jerusha Bingham was the daughter of Joseph B., of Windham, Conn., who married Sarah Wheelock, daughter of Ralph, Dec. 1st, 1742. Sarah Wheelock was the sister of Rev. Eleazer Wheelock, founder and first President of Dartmouth College. The late William L. Weaver, of Willimantic, Conn., published in 1863 an account of Pres. Kirkland's descent, and showed the error under which his biographers and others had labored.
