HISTORICAL RESOURCES

From the History of Oregon: Benjamin was sixth of his father's eight children and was ten years old when they crossed the plains to Oregon.  His duty on the journey was to drive the milch cows on horseback, and he performed his task to the satisfaction of all parties.  After the arrival and settlement on the donation claim he remained at home until he was twenty-one and then went with his brothers to eastern Washington to engage in the stock business, and they took with them 225 head of cattle; because of the severity of the winter they lost nearly all of their stock.  About this time the war broke out, mining began in Idaho, and prices advanced. This naturally benefited them and in time they became wealthy.  Benjamin then went to Polk County and purchased a half section of land off the John Fudge donation claim.  After his marriage the couple resided in Washington for a year and then returned to Oregon and lived on land left him by his mother. He purchased more land by his mothers to total 800 acres.

DISCREPANCY - Monmouth Herald obituary gives birth year of 1835, while death certificate and marker give 1838.

NOTE - His second wife, Adelaide, and two of his children, Glendon Whiteaker and Nellie (Whiteaker) Kantner, are buried at Salem Pioneer Cemetery in Salem, Oregon.

OBITUARY:
The Herald made mention, last week, of the serious illness of B.F. Whiteaker, who was stricken with paralysis while transacting business at Independence. Mr. Whiteaker was taken home and under the care of a physician seemed to rally, but taking a relapse died on Saturday morning, August 24, 1912, and was buried on Monday.

He was born in Illinois, May 25, 1835, and came with his parents to Oregon in 1848. They located in Polk county and the Whiteaker homestead marks their enterprise. He was twice married, his first wife being Narcissa Hamar, and to this union were born W.H. Whiteaker, of Portland; A.J. Whiteaker, of Raymond, Wash.; Mrs. W.O. Cook of Eugene, and Mrs. E. Roe of Enterprise.

After the death of his first wife he married Miss Adelaide Fetzer, to whom were born Mrs. Etta [Nettie] Kantner of Seattle and Frank and Glenn Whiteaker of Cochrane, Ore. Deceased was a man of warm and generous impulses. His friends were numbered by his acquaintance, and he was a fine type of the pioneer. His home was always open and his hand ready to help the suffering and needy. He gave liberally to worthy public enterprises and at the time of his death was engaged with others in drilling an oil well on his extensive farm.
