His place in 1886 was owned and occupied by descendants of his granddaughter, Celia, who married Christopher Spencer. Nathan was a rope maker by trade. He and his first wife joined the Six Principle Baptist Church in 1736, in which he became a deacon, and thereafter much of his time was passed in preaching and other religious ministrations in Warwick and the adjoining towns. His family Bible, an English edition of 1729, containing a record of his family, was, in 1886, owned by Mrs. George W. Spencer, descendant. He was a man much respected, exerting much influence both in civil and religious affairs. (Stukely Westcott, Vol. 1, Pg. 182, 1932) ------ Census of Rhode Island 1774 Page 218 WESTCOT, Nathan Whites.
