  1. 1.  Reginald FOSTER was born about 1595 in Exeter, Devonshire, England; died before 30 May 1681 in Ipswich, Essex, Massachusetts.

    Notes:

    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.

    Reginald married Judith WIGNOL on 28 Sep 1619 in Theydon Garnon, Essex, England. Judith was born in 1597 in Exeter, Devon, England; died in Oct 1664 in Ipswich, Essex, Massachusetts. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

    Notes:

    According to Jeanette (Wood) Hunter, Inez was the only one of her siblings born in Canada.

    November 15, 2012 - talk with Brian Kirkpatrick
    Inez went to dance school in Calgary. Miss Jean Gauld, late 1920s or mid-1930s. Inez could stretch her leg straight up and touch the top of the doorway with her toes. I do know grandma had beautiful long legs.

    According to Archives Canada, "Jean Helen Gauld, 1902?-1984, moved to Calgary, Alberta with her father around 1914. She won many awards for her Highland dancing, and by the age of 14 established herself as a professional dance instructor. She expanded her range to include ballet, ethnic, and modern styles. Later in her career she taught at Mount Royal College and the Montessori School of Calgary." There are photos of her in the Glenbow Archives, Calgary.

    According to her son George, Inez was a Congregationalist in Calgary, later became United Church. (Not clear to me from my notes if the Congregationalist Church became the United Church or if Grandma did, hereself.) Also according to George, Mavis Deeves was Grandma's best friend growing up.

    Inez married George Theodore KIRKPATRICK on 24 Aug 1933 in Calgary, AB, Canada. George (son of James Douglas KIRKPATRICK and Emma BOWE) was born on 8 Oct 1910 in Hope, BC, Canada; died on 24 Mar 1972 in Calgary, AB, Canada. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

    Notes:

    Note: Alfreda's daughter Jeanette says she was named after her father's first wife, Alphreda! She never knew the correct spelling of her name until she had to order a copy of her birth certificate one day. It came back saying her name was spelled Alphreda and from then on she used that spelling for official purposes, but kept the spelling she was used to for informal day-to-day purposes.
