Joseph was the son of David Whelpley and Martha Fuller. David was b.@1793 in Stockbridge, Berkshire MA. Joseph had a brother Charles, b. @ 1839.
David's father was Henry Whelpley, Sr., b. 5/5/1752 in Stockbridge. He died sometime after 1820, perhaps in Scipio, Cayuga Co. NY, where he was listed in the census in 1800 and 1810. His wife was Mary Galpin, b. 10/21/1753. They had 8 sons and 2 daughters between 1775 and 1797.
Henry was the son of Samuel Whelpley, b. 7/5/1728/9 in Wilton, Fairfield CT. Died 11/29/1809 in Stockbridge. His wife was Hannah Olmstead, b. 5/1734 in Wilton and d. 6/11/1800 in Stockbridge. They had 4 sons and 3 daughters between 1752 and 1766. Among them was Samuel, Jr., a very well-known minister at the time and the author of Whelpley's Compendium, a history book used in public schools for over 30 years.
Samuel Sr.'s father was David Whelpley, b. 6//16/1704 prob. in Greenwich, Fairfield CT. His wife was Elizabeth Gregory, b. 9/22/1707 in Norwalk, Fairfield CT. They are known to have been the parents of at least 9 and probably at least 10 children.
David's father was Jonathan Whelpley, b. 1660 in Greenwich, Fairfield. He was married to Mary Darling and resided in Greenwich. Died in 1712. Had 6 kids.
Jonathan's father was the immigrant Henry Whelpley b. @ 1620 in England. Jonathan was born to Henry's 2nd wife Sarah, who may have died in childbirth. Henry remarried in 1661 and then died in 1662. It's believed that Jonathan was probably raised by his mother's family, and that three minor children from Henry's first marriage were probably raised by their mother's relatives.
