| 54 | Alfreda (Wood) Worrall -- from her eulogy Alfreda Wood, daughter of David and Maude, was born March 2, 1900 in Sheffield, Vermont, U.S.A. She attended school in Pawtucket, Rhode Island, U.S.A. until the family moved to Calgary in 1913. She worked for Great North Western Railways Telegraphs, Woolworths and the Bay. In 1923 she moved to a farm home, working with two families. On January 27, 1926 Alfreda married James Worrall in Calgary. They lived on a farm ten miles east of Didsbury, farming there for forty-five years. They had a daughter. Alfreda was a member of the Mountain View W.I. for sixty-eight years and a Life member since 1965. She held many offices over the years. She exhibited at conferences and fairs in the classes of knitting, crocheting and original rugs. Alfreda was a valued member. Predeceased by James in 1981, Alfreda lived alone until 1988 at which time she went into the Didsbury Nursing Home. She passed away January 6, 1993. She is survived by her daughter Jeanette and Lawrence Hunter, four grandchildren and seven great-grandchildren, as well as other family members. Alfreda will be missed by all who knew her. | WOOD, Alfreda (aka Alphreda) Angeline (I314)

|
| 56 | Also spelled Joanne. She married second, Robert Fleming of Stonington,Conn., as early as 1669, when her son was nearly of age, and was hiswidow in Jan. 1681/2. She was living at or near Norwich, Conn., in 1695.She signed herself Joanna Olmstead after 1687, but no record has beenfound of any of her three marriages. There is little known about the Widow Rose. There is no evidence to showshe was Eames, or Rathbone, or Ransford; all names speculated for hermaiden name. Her origins and maiden name are unknown. The first name ofher husband is also unknown, although since the name Thomas was repeateddown into future generations, it might be Thomas. Neither is there anyknown relationship with Daniel Rose of Wethersfield, Conn. or Robert Roseof Mass, or the Rose's of Long Island. It is possible she is anunrecorded daughter of another immigrant and married in America. NOTES: Savage's Dictionary of New England Settlers says, under Thomas Fleming:"FLEMING, ROBERT, Stonington 1669, had grant of land 30 Sept, that year.and died before 1681, leaving widow Joanna and daughter Mary Rose,possibly other children." Torrey's New England Marriages Before 1700 has: "ROSE, [Thomas?] & Joanna? ( --1693+), m/2 Robert FLEMMING by 1674, m/3 ? OLMSTEAD bef 1687;b=first born: 1659; ?CT "FLEMMING, Robert ( --1681) & Joanna [ROSE], wid, m/3 OLMSTED bef 1687;b=first born: 8 Dec 1674; Stonington, CT "OLMSTED, ? & Joanna (ROSE) [FLEMMING], w Robert; aft 18 Jul 1687; ?Stonington/Preston, CT" History of the 1st Congregational Church Stonington, Connecticut, Pg 41:"In 1668 a census of the inhabitants of the town was ordered to be taken,embracing those only who were inhabitants or heads of families. February2. There were found to be forty-three inhabitants, viz.: Robert Fleming" Tidbits from above: The "b 8 Dec 1674" entry under Flemming shows she mayhave had children with Robert Flemming and we may have some half-cousinsin the Flemming family. This is because b usually means "date of firstborn" in Torrey. Torrey apparently found some evidence of her being alive in 1693. The Mary described in Savage is likely the Mary Rose who married RobertParke. Her descendants are cousins to Princess Diana, as Princess Dianais a Parke descendant. | RANSFORD, Joanna (I25043)

| 57 | Anna's name was given as such by her granddaughter Denise in a letter to me. I had always thought it was Anne before. (And since, I've seen it given both ways. Will have to watch documents for this.) Update: Her birth certificate gives her name as being Annie Christine Kirkpatrick. ------------------------------------- When I was at the Ashcroft Museum recently, I was amazed to find this undated article, possibly from the Ashcroft Journal: A kitchen oven was turned into a makeshift incubator when Annie Salter was born more than a century ago, several months premature and weighing a little over one pound. Neonatal technology was still decades away when her grandmother wrapped tiny Annie in cotton cloth, laid her in a cigar box and popped her in the warm oven with the door open. "It was quite the miracle," said Salter's daughter Kae Larson of the remarkable survival in a rural home in 19th-century Dog Creek, BC. Incredibly, Salter's mother had miscarried a twin about three months earlier. The oldest of 11 children, Salter, now 102, was born March 23, 1896 and spent much of her life caring for and feeding others. First it was her siblings. After she married Frank Salter Dec. 25, 1917, there were her own two children and often several young members of her extended family all living under the same roof. Sometimes Salter worked as camp cook in the southern Alberta oilfields where her husband toiled. She couldn't stand to see anyone go hungry. During the '30s Depression, she would cook up a huge, hearty stew every Sunday and invite in a dozen or more unemployed oilfield workers, recalled Larson. "She always said the reason she got married on Christmas Day was that was the one day of the year she knew there would be plenty of food on the table," said Larson, sitting beside her mother's wheelchair in the Capital Care Grandview nursing home, 6215 124... [page cut off]. ----------------------------------- Posted by Ken Kirkpatrick on Facebook, August 24, 2011 "In about 1995, a tornado went through their area. Nana was home alone at Ken & Kae's, and they had those big windows overlooking a nice view. She knew she was supposed to go downstairs but "I had never seen a tornado in person, and I wanted to watch it." So she wedged herself between the fridge and stove and enjoyed watching the storm - until the tornado threw a bird against the window with such force that the bird died instantly." ------------------------------------ Notes from conversation with Kae Larson (Nana's daughter) at the 2013 Kirkpatrick Family reunion: Nana never left the house without makeup on and hair done. About 1922 or 1923 a woman came and saw Nana looking for a Kirkpatrick. Not sure if this is the time, but there is a rumour that TG's granddaughter from his first marriage (the one where Esther Stiles passed away and we never knew where the baby went) came looking for him. Cannot verify. | KIRKPATRICK, Annie Christine "Nana" (I57)

| 59 | Appears in the 17th cent. as an overseer of Masonry work. Worked on theMelrose Abbey. Emigration between 1680 - 1688 to Plymouth, Massachusetts. | MURDOCK, John (I25247)
|
| 60 | Arthur and Henry Howland came to Plymouth several years after John. Theysettled at Marshfield in 1647, and Henry later moved to Duxbury where hewas a constable. Both Arthur and Henry were Quakers, which sectoriginated in 1647 in England. The Quakers would never pay tithes andnever yielded to any human law which traversed their conscience. Arthurparticulary did more - he resisted tyranny with all the moral energy ofenthusiam, bearing witness against blind obedience. Plymouth colonistswere very bitter toward the Quakers and stringent laws were madepunishing their refusal to contribute towards the support of the ministryof the colonial church, holding meetings in their faith and entertainingtheir traveling brethren. This led to the severest persecution andimprisonment, which made Plymouth a very undesirable place for the Quakerto reside. It is odd that the Pilgrims who left England and Holland insearch of religious freedom were so unsympathetic to other sects. Thisdifference in beliefs must have led to harsh family feelings between thebrothers, particularly between Arthur and John as Arthur was a broughtbefore the General Court many times, and John was a member of that Court. Arthur's house at Marshfield was the headquarters of the persecutedFriends. He was arrested in 1657 and, refusing to pay bond, was sent toprison. While in prison, he wrote a letter to the General Court held inPlymouth, March 2 ,1658 which was found to be "full of factious,seditious, slanderous passages to be of dangerous consequences." He wasfined, refused to pay the fines and went back to prison. In one instance,John Howland, Jr. was called before the General Court because he hadwarned his Uncle Arthur and other Quakers that the constables were ontheir way to arrest them. | HOWLAND, Henry (I25251)
|
| 61 | Arthur Head was the immigrant ancestor, a native, it is believed, fromWales, who settled at New Castle, New Hampshire, in 1671, and died therein September 1711. He came to America with his brother, Nathaniel. Arthur was a fisherman at Great Island, having bought land there in 1671.He was defendant in a lawsuit in 1677, and served as a juror in 1693 forthe inquest of John Row. He sold the Great Island property in 1690. Arthur, the first of the name of which we have a record, took a deed ofhouses and land of Christopher Goss bearing date of 25 Dec. 1671. On Nov.5, 1690, "Arthur Head of the Great Island in town of Portsmouth In yeProvince of New Hampshire, Fisherman," deeded to Thomas Paine a warehouseand land. Arthur married twice, his first wife unknown but perhaps named Ann. Hemarried second to Sarah Reynolds, who swept the town meeting hall in 1694and 1697. He was survived by Sarah, who died not later than 1718. Theyreared five children, the eldest of whom was James Head. "London Neck" was patented to John Head and Philip Atwood. | HEAD, Arthur (I21710)

He is bound forCharlsetown. He is listed of Charlestown as early as 1636, and is at the "division ofwood and commons on Mistick side" on 1658. He is in the list ofhouseholders in 1678. | DAVIS, Barnabus (I25119)

|
| 65 | Benjamin lived on that part of the homestead he rec'd from his father bydeed of gift, containing 30 acres, bearing date Oct. 2, 1691. Heafterwards acquired a considerable real estate by purchase, contiguous tothe homestead, and owned a tract of 10 acres on the W. side of Ipswichriver, which was given by his father to his bro. Robert, June 3, 1708, ofwhom he bought it on Aug. 6, 1713, and sold it the next year to WalterSmith, for Ð20. Before his decease he had settled a snug little estateupon each of his remaining children, disposing of most of the remainderof deed of sale. While an infant he was adopted into the family of Dea.Nathaniel Ingersoll, his only child, a daughter, having died at an earlyage. But little more is known of his personal history, and that through themedium of the witchcraft papers, deposited in the office of the Essex Co.Court, being at the time quite a youth, about 21 or 22 years of age, witha young wife, both of whom acted their part in this most singular drama,with an apparent air of sincerity, astonishing to all who may read orhear of these performances, the result of which was almost certainconviction of the innocent defendants, and an ignominious death. | HUTCHINSON, Benjamin (I15644)

| 70 | By a tradition which exists in different branches of the Foster family,Reginald Foster, the first of the name, is reputed to have come to thiscountry from Exeter, Devonshire, England, and to have crossed the waterin one of the ships embargoed by King Charles the First: but of this,nothing certain is as yet known. He brought with him his wife, Judith, five sons and two daughters, andsettled in Ipswich, Essex, Massachusetts, about the year 1638, and wasone of the earliest inhabitants of that town. Children were all born inEngland between 1618 and 1636. Each child had families from nine to 14children, many of whom settled in Ipswich, Boxford, Andover and othernearby towns in Massachusetts Many have attained national distinction (USSenator Lafayette Sabine Foster of Conn and Senator Addison G. Foster ofWashington.) He lived near the "East Bridge," which stood where the stone bridge nowis. It is supposed that the remains of what is known as the "old Fosterhouse," may have been the site of his residence. This seems probable, for6 April, 1841, there was "granted Reginald Foster, eight acres of meadowin the west meadow, if any remain there ungranted, in consideration of alittle hovel that stood at the new bridge, which was taken away for theaccomodating of the passage there," and "4th, 11mo., 1646," he withothers "promise carting voluntary toward the East Bridge beside the ratea day work a piece." The danger from Indians in these early times was such that in the year1645 a law was passed requiring the "youth from ten to sixteen years tobe exercised with small guns, half pikes, bows and arrows," and also that"every town is to have a guard set a half hour after sunset, to consistof a pikeman and musketeer, and to prepare for any sudden attack from theIndians." Our ancestor, on the 19 December, 1645, subscribed with othershis proportion of 3sh. towards the sum of o24. 7sh. "to pay their leaderMajor Dennison," who then commanded the military forces of Essex andNorfolk Counties. His wife Judith died at Ipswich in October, 1664. He married again,Sept., 1665, Sarah widow of John Martin, of Ipswich. She survivedReginald, and 21 Sept., 1680 she became the second wife of William White,of Haverhill. She died 22 Feb., 1682-3. Reginald owned land on Plum and Hog Islands per his will proved 09 June1681. | FOSTER, Reginald (I13793)

| 71 | Called "Sgt. Thomas". | CLARKE, Thomas (I25125)
|
| 72 | Came to America on the Hercules. | STARR, John B. (I13052)
|
| 73 | Came to Boston in 1636. Lived in Cambridge, Massachusetts on thesoutherly side of Arrow Street. He was a selectman in 1641, 1642, 1643,1645 Farmer says he "removed to Hampton, which he represented in 1651 and1652. He died in 1660, leaving sons Joseph and Benjamin, and fourdaughters." | SHAW, Roger (I33150)
|
| 74 | Came to US on ship, Lady Arabella in 1630 with his father. | DUDLEY, Reverend Samuel (I606)
|
| 75 | Captain Thomas CRAM JR was born on 9 Nov 1696 in Hampton Falls, Rockingham Co, New Hampshire. He died in Aug 1751. Thomas was captain of the militia in Hampton Falls. He was a Masonian Proprietor of Ware, N.H. These Lords Proprietor, or Masonians, met at Porysmouth in 1749 to draw for lots in Ware. Thomas Cram's was lot #84, (Ranges 3 and 7). He was also one of the selectmen of Hampton Falls. According to www.ironheritage.org/trail_2.htm, There is a place on Ottawa Lake Road (13 mile post zero and treaty tree) where Captain Thomas Cram placed the first marker at the survey point establishing the Wisconsin-Michigan state boundary in 1840. "As part of the settlement of the 'Toledo War' between Michigan and Ohio, most of the Upper Peninsula of Michigan was granted to Michigan for the'Toledo Strip' which was granted to Ohio. He made a treaty for passage with Chief Ca-Sha-O-Sha and the band of Ojibwa (Chippewa) near a large tamarack tree at the headwaters of the Brule River." However, 1840 is the wrong time frame for our Captain Thomas Cram. If this is the correct date, perhaps it was his son that placed the marker? | CRAM, Captain Thomas (I168)

| 76 | Christopher and his wife came to New England in the "Mary and John" fromLondon, which arrived in June of 1634. Christopher is listed "ofMarlborough, county Wilts" and bound for Ipswich. Marjory is listed as"Margery". Marjory's parents and siblings are also listed on this ship,but there is no mention of Christopher's daughter Mary. On an old Powder Horn in possession of Mr. Clark Osgood of CapeElizabeth, Maine, was an inscription, "Christopher Osgood of Orrell,England, came to America, Feb. ye 14, 1634." They settled in Ipswich, being among the earliest settlers there. He wasa brickmaker, is listed as a proprietor at Ipswich in 1634. In 1635, he was granted a house lot in Ipswich, Mass, having JohnProctor's houselot on the south, John Robinson on the north, WilliamFuller east, and a swamp west. He is listed as "commoner" at Ipswich in 1641, and on December 20, 1645possessed a lot on the Town Hill, Ipswich, Mass., next to Ezra Rolfe. His will is dated Apr a9, 1650, proved Oct 10, 1650 by the oath ofDaniell Rolfe. He bequeathed to his eldest daughter, Mary Osgood, 10pounds.

Christopher married (2) on July 28, 1633, Margery Fowler, inMarlborough. She was the daughter of Philip Fowler who also came toAmerica. Christopher became a freeman in May 1635 and received a grant of land in1635 in Ipswich where he served on the trial jury in 1642, 1648, and in1650, the year he died. His will of April 19, prov.

| 78 | Colleen (Deane) Cranebear gave the eulogy, then asked if anyone else would like to speak. I, Dawn Kirkpatrick, had written something just that morning and delivered it: "A lot of people don't know that Papa Pete grew up in a wealthy and cultured family in Switzerland. His was a very old and respected name. "Papa was raised in an environment of plenty and he learned from an early age about manners and etiquette, the arts and sciences, and he had a truly international experience and outlook. He was a brilliant businessman and, before his accident, lived his life to the fullest. Life was an adventure to him and everything he did was with maximum intensity. "But Papa was also very much a gentelman. He considered all men his equal and treated everyone he met with dignity and respect. He had the patience of a saint and this patience was never so tried as during the last years of his life. "But even though is days must have been very long and mind-numbingly boring at times, Papa endured them with the grace of a true gentleman. His huge heart still managed to find love and humour in his days. "I asked Papa not long ago if he ever felt grandma's presence with him and he said yes, he did. "Godspeed Papa Pete. I am so happy that you and grandma are finally back together again. "I love you!" | MAY, Peter Paul (I2251)

| 81 | Daniel Blanchard, servant of Christopher Osgood, was killed in an Indianambush at Scarborough, south of Portland ME, in June, 1677 p. 72, Andover From: Johnson, Carol Clark, A Genealogical History of the Clark and WorthFamilies and Other Puritan Settlers in the Massachusetts Bay Colony,(Privately Printed 1970), p. 423-424. Christopher, Captain, a millwright, was born in 1643, received aneducation, and became an ardent patriot. He sold the property inherited from his father to ThomasMetcalf October 2, 1666, and moved to Andover where he was sworn afreeman in 1676. In 1677 he was made constable and received a licenseto keep an ordinary "and draw wine and liquors to strangers for a yearbut not to suffer any townsmen to drink liquors in his house." Daniel Blackhead, servant of Christopher, was killed by Indians at BlackPoint June 29, 1677. Captain Osgood was a selectman in 1680, and he was one of the many whorebelled openly in 1687 against the harsh rule of the governor Sir EdmundAndros and were jailed without warrant and heavily fined. On April 18,1689, the drums beat through the streets to announce the overthrow ofAndros. A provincial government under Bradstreet was organized andapproved by England. Christopher built Frye's Mills at Andover and was a representative tothe General Court for a number of years. In October 1692 he was forced topetition in behalf of his daughter Mary who was imprisoned for supposedwitchcraft. In April 1704, Captain Osgood received the order to build threeblockhouses on the bank of the Merrimack, 12 feet wide, 15 feet long,with a fireplace at one end and a covered well, like the blockhouse atNewbury. A bounty of œ40 sterling was offered for every Indian scalp,and the soldiers were told that every Indian child under ten yearsshould be sold as a slave, the price to be theirs. This was inretaliation for the Indian attack at Black Point when 200 Indiansattacked 20 men at work in the fields, killing or capturing all but one,and for the Deerfield massacre of February 29, 1704, when 49 men, womenand children were killed, and 109 others taken on a forced march toCanada, including many children who were held for ransom. | OSGOOD, Christopher Capt. (I21725)

| 82 | Daniel Poore immigrated with his brother, Samuel and sister, Alice, asservants of Stephen Dummer aboard the ship Bevis of Southampton, whicharrived about August of 1638. Mr. Dummer is listed as "of Bishopstokemcounty Hants, husbandman", and bound for Newbury. It is likely, therefore, that Daniel lived for a time at Newbury beforesettling in Andover. Mary, his future wife, had arrived in September 1635on the James, traveling with her father Ralph, her mother Alice, and twoyounger brothers. Her family was bound for Ipswich. | POORE, Daniel (I15659)

New info from this site: http://wc.rootsweb.ancestry.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=GET&db=kirkpatrickjan08&id=I2 --- begin quote --- THE MIGRATION OF THE KIRKPATRICK BROTHERS, ALEXANDER AND ANDREW The Kirkpatricks are of ancient lineage. Our chief concern in these pages is to register the descendants of the Kirkpatricks who emigrated from Scotland to New Jersey and settled in the year 1736 near Baskingridge, in Somerset County; and in so doing it is convenient to head the list with Alexander Kirkpatrick of County Dumfries, Scotland; he being the last ancestor of theirs in the male line who lived and died in the Old World. This Alexander was a son of George Kirkpatrick and a great-great-great-great-great-grandson of Sir Roger Kirkpatrick, Lord of Closeburn. Sir Roger's wife was Lady Margaret de Somerville who traced her descent from Alfred the Great, King of England. See Chapter VII. 1. ALEXANDER KIRKPATRICK, SR., son of George Kirkpatrick, is said to have had nine children. See Chapter VII. We are here concerned only with his two sons: +701. i. Alexander Kirkpatrick, emigrator from Watties Neach, Scotland, in 1725; he died June 3, 1758. See Chapter VI. +2. ii.

Deacon Francis Parrat was admitted Freeman on 13 May 1640 He was townclerk in 1641, and served as one of the committee to register house lotsin 1643, he having two of two acres each. He was a man of ability andinfluence, and his penmanship shown on Rowley records has been remarkedon as it attests to his education and skill. He married Elizabeth Northend. He was deacon of Rowley Church, though hisname has never appeared on the printed lists. In a paper on file in EssexProbate, being the return of the division of the estate of Mrs. AnnHobson dated 3 December 1694, a parcel of the land is described asbounded "by ye land was Dea. parrats"; the division was made by EzekielNorthend, Jr, Nehemiah Jewett and Captain Joseph Jewett, men who wouldhave known who had been deacons of their church. Francis made his will Nov. 18, 1655, in which he speaks of "intending totake a journey to England" . He went to England on business and diedthere in 1656.

| 94 | Doug Ison, Joe and Ollie's son, submitted this story to the Jan 2010 Kirkpatrick newsletter: Olivine Emma Kirkpatrick & Joseph Enion Ison Family History Part #1 - submitted by Doug Ison Many interesting facts of Olivine (Ollie) and Joseph's (Joe's) history has been mentioned in earlier stories on family news, this will be an attempt to add new pictures and information on two great and loving persons. Ollie and Joe grew up in the Killarney district of Calgary and both attended old Sunalta School near 20th St. SW. Dad left home at an early age, 14 years old, to seek new adventures and start a life on his own. Mom was working part time when she was 15 yrs old and enjoyed working the summers at the Banff Springs Hotel. She also continued her schooling at Western Canada [High School] on 17 Ave SW. Dad later went to the CPR Ogden shops and was employed in the coach works with his brother John Ison. Unfortunately there are not any photos of young Joe. As a young boy Dad kept his horse near his home in a field across what is now Richmond Road near 26 St and 24 A Ave SW. As Killarney was a small area, Ollie and Joe were bound to meet; the Kirkpatrick family was very large with 11 kids. Dad said he knew some of the Kirkpatrick boys from school and Killarney, where he met their sister, Olivine, who was born in 1912 as Dad was. Dad was 19 yrs old (July 17, 1912) and Mom was 18 yrs old (December 12, 1912) when they married. After being married they lived in Killarney and Dad continued to work at CPR for several years. Due to a shortage of work as a CPR car carpenter Dad took a job with Frank Salter (Mom's sister Anne's husband) in 1936 in the Turner Valley oil fields. Moving to the job as derricks man in the oilfields opened many new adventures for Mom and Dad. Still when time permitted they were always off visiting family and friends. A good example was a couple of years after their wedding they traveled by train, with George and Inez Kirkpatrick, to Winnipeg then on to Fisher Branch. They arrived in the middle of a Manitoba winter and Mom always stated how cold and windy it was. Fisher Branch is where Mom's sister, Jean, had moved with her husband, Leo Menard. Leo and Jean owned several different businesses over the years in Fisher Branch including a garage and a hotel. They had one son Laddie. Mom and Dad went to Fisher Branch for several visits with Jean, Leo and Laddie. Living at Turner Valley was different for Mom and Dad but they must have been interesting times. I didn't see any indications of indoor plumbing or electric lights in the photos. [Dad had a] 1931 Ford Model A. The original manuals for this car are with Doug in Dad's files. More travels to visit our relatives were to Ashcroft/Spence's Bridge, BC for [visits] with the Colvins and others. Dad and Mom traveled to Vancouver to see her brothers Johnny and Ludwig Kirkpatrick and families, plus Johnny Bowe and family. A lot of travel was by train due to the poor roads in the interior of BC. In March 1940 Mom and Dad moved to Ram River area, just west of Ricinus, Alberta, to work on the oil rigs, again with Frank Salter. Dad and Mom [traveled in the Model "A"]. Trees were cleared and roads were built by hand and accidents occurred. Sometimes logs were placed across the road for support; these were called corduroy type roads. The corduroy type road is generally used over soft ground to give support to the vehicles. Sometimes these roads were just as bad as the mud below them. Being so very isolated required the families to look after themselves whether building roads, homes, looking after sick or injured people. Getting out to Rocky Mountain House for help in the 1940 was a very involved and a time consuming trip, and many times it was not possible to travel, except in winter. On March 25, 1943 a Cessna plane from No. 3 Service Flight Training School, R.C.A.F. Calgary carrying 3 crewmembers crashed in a bad blizzard above Ram Camp. Guy Fay heard the crash over the blizzard and saw the lights of the aircraft go out. At daybreak, Pete Fay, Joe Ison, and Fred Osterlund climbed the nearest mountain and saw the plane. Guy Fay went for help at the Forestry Baseline cabin. The crash was at 1:30 a.m. and the rescue team arrived through the deep snow at 11:00 a.m. The normal walk down hill would have taken 2 hours back to camp but with the deep snow and injured it was over six hours before they arrived. All three airmen survived. Little did they know that their stay at the Ram Camp would last eight years until 1948. Their lives were going to change in many different ways. One major change during their stay in Ram Camp was to adopt two boys. In April 1944 Thomas Joseph was born and in August 1946 Lynn Douglas. Nana (Anne Salter) related how Mom and her kept our baby bottles from freezing in their winter travels by carrying them in their bosom. The kid group expanded now from Barry and Alec (Icky) Deeves, to Tom and Doug, Osterlund children, and the Al and Ev Dawson's family, plus others. Everyone in the camp lived in small wooden houses covered with rolled tarpaper, and called of cours, Tar Paper Shacks. The families organized Christmas Plays, birthday celebrations, wagon - tractor rides, Easter Egg hunts, hikes, picnics, sleigh rides, or other activities to keep everyone entertained in the isolated Ram Camps. Plus there was the pet deer everyone liked. | Family: Joseph Enion ISON / Olivine Emma KIRKPATRICK (F28)

| 95 | Dr. Comfort Starr immigrated with children Thomas, Comfort, Jr., Mary and"Truth-Shall-Prevail", probably daughter Elizabeth, on the Hercules ofSandwich, which arrived in the summer of 1634. They were accompanied bySamuel Dunkin and John Turvey. Comfort is listed as "of Ashford,Chirurgeon", and bound for Cambridge. It seems likely that his wife,having just given birth to twin girls Ruth and Liddia about two weeksbefore their sailing date, followed sometime later with young Hannah andthe newborns, perhaps with Comfort's brothers Joyful and Jehosahat,though a record of their crossing has not been found. Comfort must have known the owners of the Hercules, for the followingdeposition was taken in England shortly before they sailed: "ComfortStarr of Ashford in the county of Kent, chirurgeon, aged 45, deposes 11February, 1634-5, that about the latter end of November last JohnWitherIcy of Sandwich, mariner, did buy at Dunkirk a certain Flemishbuilt shipp lately called the St. Peter, now the Hercules of Sandwich,for the sum of Ð340 the first penny, which shipp now lies at Sandwich,and is of the burthen of 200 tonnes.

She belongs to this examinate. John Witherley,Nathaniel Tilden and Mr. Osborne, and William Hatch is to have a parte inher with this examinate." Comfort was a physician, and the first of the name in New England. Hemarried Elizabeth. He died at Boston, Jan. 1660, and Elizabeth died therein 1658. Comfort was of Cambridge 1635, Duxbury 1640, also at Yarmouth for a shorttime, then removed in 1643 to Boston and spent the later years of hislife there. He was one of the first surgeons to come to the colony, andwas one of the charter fellows of Harvard College in 1650. His will was dated Apr. 22, 1659. In it, he provides for son John, fivedaughters of daughter Maynard deceased, the children of son Thomas,deceased, his grandson Simon Eyre, the three children of ElizabethFerniside wife of John, his daughter Elizabeth and his daughter-in-law,widow of Thomas. He also bequeaths to, in England, daughter Hannah, andhe gives to son Comfort, and his heirs, the house and land at Ashford,County Kent. | STARR, Comfort Dr. (I13056)

| 97 | Ebenezer was born 24, baptised 28, Feb., 1741-2, in Thompson,Connecticut. He was a Quaker, a farmer, a tavern keeper, near the Stateline, on the main road from Thompson to Douglas, Massachusetts. Heweighed 325 lbs., and was accidentally struck in the abdomen by aneighbor, 13 Oct., 1804, death resulting almost instantly. He married,first, 21 Dec., 1767, Sarah Porter of Killingly, and, second, 18 Feb.,1773, Mary Stevens, who was daughter of Robert and Mary, and died 8 Oct.,1823, aged seventy-two years, five months, twenty days. Ebenezer had tenchildren, one of whom became a widow with two daughters. The widow wasinterviewed by a widower with two sons, and ultimately the three menmarried the three women. | STARR, Ebenezer (I13042)

| 98 | Edwsard Jackson was a nailmaker from England, and immigrated to the newworld about 1635. He was made freeman in 1645, and the next year purchased a farm of 500acres in Cambridge Village, of Gov. Bradstreet, paying for it Ð140. Hewas one of the deputies to the General Court from Cambridge, 17 years inall, commencing in 1647. He was a selectman of Cambridge in 1665; one of the commissioners to end small causes in Cambridge several years, andfilled many other offices in the town. He signed the 1664 Cambridgepetition against a New England government. He was one of the petitionersin separating Cambridge Village as first a precinct and then as the townof Newton. Johnson, in his Wonder Working Providence, says: 'He could not endure tosee the truths of Christ trampled under foot, by the erroneous party.' Edward purchased 500 acres in Newton in 1646. He bought a house and fouracres in Cambridge (Newton) from William Redfen on 1646 Sep 8. He left 400 acres to Harvard and 30.5 acres to the Newton Ministry. Theinventory of his estate proves him a man of wealth, for at his death hehad 1600 acres of land. His property was prized at Ð2,477.19.6, includingtwo men-servants, valued at Ð5 each. It is a remarkable fact, taken inconnection with the life and character of his descendant, Francis, whowas such an uncompromising abolitionist, that Edward, his ancestor, was aslaveholder--probably the first in Newton. | JACKSON, Edward (I13726)

| 99 | Elizabeth Goodale was a widow and a grandmother when she left her home inYarmouth, England in 1637 with her three unmarried daughters, Ann,Joanna, and Elizabeth. Her oldest daughter, Susanna, born in 1607, wasmarried and came at the same time with her husband, Abraham Toppan, andtwo children, Peter and Elizabeth. According to The Old Families ofSalisbury and Amesbury by David W. Hoyt, Elizabeth and all of herdaughters arrived on the Mary Anne in 1637. The entry in Winthrop'sjournal for June 20, 1637 reads "Three ships arrived here from Ipswich,with three hundred and sixty passengers." Charles Banks in Planters ofthe Commonwealth lists the Toppan family among the seventy fourpassengers on the Mary Anne which "sailed from Ipswich in May and arrivedat Boston June 20". Apparently, the four Goodales were among the threehundred and six unlisted passengers on the two unnamed ships noted byWinthrop. They settled in Newbury, Mass. Joanna married John Oliver and their daughter was born in 1639. JohnOliver died in 1642 and in 1645 Joanna married William Gerrish. He hadarrived in Newbury from Bristol, England in 1639 with a company whichincluded John Lowell and his father, Percival, well-to-do merchants. Ann married Thomas Milward and they became the parents of threedaughters, Ann in 1642, Rebecca in 1643 and Elizabeth in 1644. ThomasMilward died in 1653 and in December of 1654 Ann married Daniel Pierce,the father of three children. No additional children were born to Ann andDanie The younger Elizabeth became the second wife of John Lowell, a wealthywidower with five children. Elizabeth and John had three children,Benjamin in 1642, Thomas, who died in infancy, and Elizabeth in 1646. In 1646 the families were firmly settled in Newbury where John Lowell wasone of the eight men who governed the town. Three more sons, Isaac, Abraham, and Jacob, had been born to Susanna andAbraham Toppan since their arrival (as well as a daughter and son whodied in infancy). Joanna and William Gerrish's first son, John, was born early that year.Joanna's other children were Abigail (born in 1647), William (1648),Joseph (1650), Benjamin (1652), Elizabeth (1654), Moses (1656), Mary(1658), Ann (1660) and Judith (1662). Elizabeth Goodale had reason to be very satisfied with her life in theNew World. Her daughters were all married, she had twelve grandchildrento enjoy and three of her granddaughters were named Elizabeth - surely atribute to her. Elizabeth Goodale died intestate April 8, 1647. At that time second families were no more unusual than they are today.The death of one parent usually led to remarriage and the birth of asecond family. It is apparent from John Lowell's will that his teenagedaughter, Mary, resented the second wife who took her mothers place. MaryLowell was born in England and came to Massachusetts in 1639 with herparents and three brothers. Another brother was born in November 1639 andMary's mother died soon after his birth. Her father married ElizabethGoodale in 1641 and three more children were born before her father'suntimely death. John Lowell was aware that he did not have long to live when he made hiswill in 1647. Most of these early wills follow a similar pattern whichincludes a reference to the mental and physical condition of the writerand often a statement of religious belief. John wrote, "I, being inperfect understanding, knowing my frailty, do declare this to be my LastWill and Testament: Steadfastly believing that when I go hence I shallrest in Glory through my Savior the Lord Jesus Christ ..." He "humblyentreats" his friends and brethren to be overseers of his wife andchildren in a "friendly, Christian way." After directing the division ofhis estate, he made a provision that in the event Elizabeth remarry, hisdaughter Mary "shall live with my sister Johan Gerrish* if my sisterplease; if my daughter Mary chuse to live with my sister before mywife..." John died July 10, 1647.(12) The inventory taken at the time ofhis death is still cited as evidence of the affluent lifestyle of thegentry at the time (Old Town and the Waterside, Two Hundred Years ofTradition and Change in Newbury, Newburyport and West Newbury, 1635-1835by Peter Benes, 1986). In 1647, both Elizabeth Lowell's mother and husband died, leaving her awidow with five stepchildren and two young children of her own. She didnot remarry, and she didn't survive her husband by many years. Her willis dated 17th first mo: 1650. "I... Considering my fraile condition doeCommitt my soule unto the Lord Jesus my Redeemer Who hath bought me withHis blood not doubting of my resurrection together with all Saints. I dotherefore while I injoy my sences ..." The will clearly shows her concernfor her son and daughter. She directed that: "my brother Thomas Millardkeep my son (Benjamin) and his estate until he go forth to be anapprentice & then to be placed forth as my overseers think fit: I desiremy four brethern to be my overseers namely bro: Thomas Millard, RichardLowell, Abraham Tappin and William Gerrish desiring them to see mydaughter Elizabeth be brought up to her needle and what else they mayjudge meet & to dispose of her as I desire to such as are God and meet toinstruct my Child in the fear of God." Elizabeth died April 23, 1651. Mary petitioned the court for permissionto return to England in October 1650, her age at the time was about 17years. Permission was granted, but she never returned to England.Benjamin became a blacksmith and married Ruth Woodman in 1666. They werethe parents of six children: Ruth (born September 4, 1667), Elizabeth(October 16, 1669), Benjamin (February 5, 1674), Sarah (March 15, 1676),Joseph (September 12, 1680), and John (February 25, 1683). Benjamin died in Newbury in 1714. The patterns of Elizabeth LowellNelson's life appear tragic when viewed across the centuries. Like hermother, she became the second wife of a wealthy man who had children. Shewas twenty years old when she married Philip Nelson of Rowley, MA andacquired a six-year-old stepson and a four-year-old stepdaughter. Philipwas thirty three years old at the time of the marriage. Elizabeth becamethe mother of ten children of her own, one of whom died in infancy. Thereferences I have seen to Philip indicate that he was, at the very least,an eccentric man. He graduated from Harvard College in 1654. He was alarge landowner and active in civic affairs. He was often involved inlawsuits concerning his father's estate and church affairs. Testimony ina 1677 suit quotes the Reverend Mr. Samuel Philips as charging PhilipNelson with "being the principal cause of all the troubles in town, as hewas a leading man In The Diary of Samuel Sewell we find a description of Philip wanderingaway on April 5, 1681. The resident of Rowley and Newbury "seeking him;on Satterday (April 9) is found, having walked out of his place to takethe air." Whatever the cause of the stroll in search of fresh air, Philipwas well enough nine years later to volunteer for military duty. Hiswill, dated April 9, 1960, was apparently made in some haste before hisdeparture. He wrote "I ... who am going out under sir William Phipps whois going against the French at Nova Scotia and not knowing how theProvidence of God may dispose of me ... " The abstract of this will, published in Volume 5 of the HistoricalCollections of the Essex Institute, briefly gives the fact that heappointed Elizabeth co-executrix and only mentioned his three oldestchildren by name. Unlike her mother, Elizabeth lived many years after herhusbands death. When Philip died in 1691, she was forty-five years oldand the mother of nine living children ranging in age from twenty-threeyear old son to a two-year-old daughter. Elizabeth lived until 1731.Death was no stranger to her; orphaned at the age of five, she survivedthree of her four sons and lived forty years a widow until her death atthe age of eighty-five. Ruth Nelson was born August 20, 1680, the seventh of Elizabeth'schildren. She was eleven years old when her father died. Ruth and hersister Martha married brothers, Samuel and George Dickinson of Rowley,MA. Ruth and Samuel were married on April 6, 1704 and raised their familyin a large, comfortable house that they acquired on the year of theirmarriage. The house is pictured on page 94 of Early Settlers of Rowley,Massachusetts. Ruth and Samuel became the parents of one son and four daughters.Probably the greatest sorrow of their long lives was the death of theironly son in 1751, he was survived by his widow and five children (thelast one born after his death) all of whom are mentioned in Samuel'swill. Indeed, he named his daughter-in-law executrix. Samuel died inDecember 1756, Ruth lived on until 1760 and died at the age of 80 years. Rebecca Dickinson and Daniel Tenney were married March 16, 1742 inRowley, MA. The Tenney Genealogy after reporting the marriage notes thatRebecca had received property by the will of her father and then devotesa paragraph to the exploits of her grandfather, Philip Nelson. Daniel andRebecca moved to Sutton, Massachusetts in 1746. Daniel is described as awheelwright in various deeds on file in the Worcester County landrecords. Daniel and Rebecca were the parents of seven children, two ofwhom, both named Marion, died young. This was the third generation inwhich the name of a dead child was passed on to another child. However,in this case, the second Marion died at the age of six. The Daughters ofthe American Revolution Lineage Book and Massachusetts Soldiers andSailors in the War of the Revolution list both Daniel Tenney and hisson-in-law, Moses Hovey, as Corporals in Colonel Holman's MassachusettsRegiment. Phebe Tenney and Moses Hovey were married on August 14, 1777. He was afarmer and a soldier in the Revolution. The couple left Oxford,Massachusetts and established a home in Otsego County, New York.Jeremiah was "slain by ye Indians at Dunstable" in July 1706; John diedprior to 1710. | PARLETT, Elizabeth (I30751)
