So who was Atkins Eldredge, anyway? Information is scant, but he seems to have come from a Cape Cod family, where he had brothers named Hezekiah Eldredge and Ebenezer Eldredge. Atkins seems to have been his mother’s maiden name. Other than that, we only know he was a whaling captain sailing out of Sag Harbor, possibly because he married Harriet Latham of Sag Harbor.
