Michael son of John & Ann Whittle died Apr. 9, 1851 aged 2 years.

Commemorative Biographical Record of the County of Essex, J. H. Beers, Toronto, 1905, p. 600-601:
Andrew Whittle, member of the council of the township of Mersea, County of Essex, Ont., and one of the most prominent farmers of that place, was born in the township of Gosfield that county, Sept. 5, 1848, son of John Whittle, and grandson of Thomas Whittle.
     Thomas Whittle was a native of Ontario, and settled at Colchester, where he owned 100 acres of land, and where he spent several years, later moving to Mersea township. There he bought 160 acres on the 5th Concession, spending the remainder of his life engaged very extensively in farming and stock raising. His remains were interred in the beautiful Olinda Cemetery, Gosfield township.
     John Whittle, son of Thomas and father of our subject, was born in Colchester township, and was four years of age when brought by his parents to Mersea township. There he grew to manhood, and received a fair common school education. After attaining his majority, he removed to Gosfield township, bought 300 acres of land, and became one of the substantial men of that section. He attained the age of seventy-nine years, and was deeply respected by a wide circle of friends. In politics he was a Liberal, but never sought or desired public office. In religious matters he was broad-minded, and a consistent member of the Universalist Church, being one of the first to join that denomination in his locality. He was a man well read on all subjects, and was thoroughly posted upon current events.
     After settling in Gosfield township, John Whittle married Anne Thornton, a native of Pennsylvania, daughter of Richard Thornton, who came from England. The following children were born to the parents of our subject: Richard, a soldier in the Union army during the Civil War in the States, died at Nashville, Tennesee; Esther married Rado Orton, of Gosfield township; Harrison died in Illinois; George resides on the homestead of his grandfather; Isaac is a resident of Gosfield township; Andrew is mentioned below; Michael died young; Charles married Elizabeth McQueen, and died at the age of twenty-three, leaving a son, John; Mary Jane married Josiah Peterson, and resides on the homestead. The mother of this family died in Gosfield township, and is buried beside her husband. She, too, was a member of the Universalist Church...
