Today Lucian Adolphus Whipple Sr. would have been 132 years old, as I was reminded when I received a note this morning from his descendant, Bennett Whipple. Lucian lived to be nearly 101 years of age. He is in the Whipple Genweb at https://whipples.org/21479, where you can see a photo at age 100. This photo is of Lucian in his younger days.
