Cites Chicago, its history and its builders, J. Seymour Curry, 1912, Vol V, pg 121-123: Following the death of his first wife he (Henry) married his second wife Miss Mattie E. Fisher, dau of Peter D. and Lavinia (Klapp) Fisher of Freeport, IL. Perhaps Mary E. and Mattie E. are the same person. In any event the source cites Mattie as the mother of Lillian, wife of John Charles Williams of Evanston.Henry has quite an interesting bio. He studied for and was ordained a Methodist Episcopal minister but his health (problems with his throat) forced him to turn to business ventures in land development at which he was quite successful at, his grandfather Wright having been the land commissiner of the Western Reserve territory. I believe his father Angell was also a land developer of sorts. Apparently the throat problems affected others in the family as well, and they removed to Texas which seemed to have affected a temporary cure; Henry returning to IL after a couple of years. Henry was an invalid (paralysis) for several years prior to his death and died at home but is interrred at Freeport, IL. !SOURCE: 14 Jun 1860 Census of Chicago Ward 8, Cook, Illinois, p. 50: Henry Whipple, 35, clergyman (M/E), b.
