                                           Memorial Plaque for Richard Kimball in Suffolk, England


Richard Kimball was born in 1595, in Rattlesden, Suffolk, England. He married Ursula Scott sometime before 1615. Richard and Ursula had eleven children:

        Henry                b. 1615            d. 1676
        Abigail              b. 1618            d.  1658
        Elizabeth           b. 1621            d. 1676
        Richard             b. 1623            d. 1676
        Mary                 b. 1625            d. 1686
        Martha              b. 1629            d. 1677
        John                  b. 1631            d. 1698
        Thomas             b. 1633            d. 1676
        Caleb                 b. 1635           d. 1696
        Benjamin           b. 1637           d. 1696
        Sarah                 b. 1639            d. 1692

        Note: There was a smallpox epidemic in Massachusetts in 1676.  This MAY explain the large 
                  number of deaths in 1676-1677 among the adult Kimball children. 

In 1634, Richard, his wife Ursula, and children Henry, Abigail, Elizabeth, Richard, Mary, Martha, John, and Thomas came to New England on the ship "Elizabeth". They settled in Watertown. Richard was declared Freeman on May 6, 1635. 

In 1637, Richard and his family moved to Ipswich. He continued to work as a wheelwright in addition to farming. 

Richard's wife Ursula died in 1660. On Oct. 23, 1661, he married Margaret Cole Dow. 

Richard Kimball died on Jun. 22,  1675. At his death, Richard owned more than 100 acres of land in Ipswich.  His wife Margaret died on Mar. 1, 1676. 

No record has been found indicated where Richard or his wives were buried. 

The plaque shown above was placed in St. Nicholas Churchyard in Rattlesden, Suffolk, England, where Richard was born, by some of his descendants.

Welcome!

Welcome to my genealogy blog! I'm just getting started, but I hope to share family trees, facts, and stories I've uncovered while researching my family and Dave's family. So, I will be posting family trees for the ancestors of Edward Elihu Hazen Jr.,  Ruth Ann Bradley, Roy Ellsworth Stricker, and Anna Elnora Rosemeyer,  My genealogy is a work in progress, and although I strive for accuracy, and have at least one (usually several) historical record to back up each name and relationship, I do make revisions from time to time. My goal for each branch is to trace direct ancestors at leas as far as the first immigrant to the U.S.  I'm new at blogging, so please be patient - I'm learning as I go. Again, welcome! Starla

Rosemeyer Family Tree - Friederick Rosemeyer and Eleanor Kolling

Friederich Rosemeyer  and Eleanor Kolling - Immigrants to Indianapolis Family Connection - great-grandfather and great-grandmother to Anna Rosemeyer Friederich Rosemeyer was born in Germany on Aug. 25, 1844.  I haven't found a marriage record (yet!) but in 1873, he immigrated to the U.S. with his wife Eleanor, age 31, daughter Christine, age 4, and son Friederich, age 11 months. They arrived in New York on September 19th. I assume they traveled by train to Indianapolis from New York City.  Why Indianapolis? We may never know for sure, but it is likely they came because they had connections to other members of Zion Evangelical and Reformed Church (now Zion United  Church of Christ). Indianapolis had a large German immigrant community, and at Zion, they worshipped in German until at least 1928, when the first services in English occurred.  Friederich and Eleanor had six children:     Christina      1869-1875     Frederick  ...

 Edward Hazen - Immigrant, Patriarch of Hazens in the U.S.  Family connection - seventh great-grandfather of Edward Elihu Hazen Jr.  Edward Hazen was born in Cadney, Lincolnshire, England on December 14, 1614. His father was Thomas Hassen (1580-1628). His mother was Elizabeth Mowry (1582-1630).  Edward immigrated to the town of Rowley, MA in 1647. The  town was established in 1639, so he was an early settler, but not an original one.  Edward married Elizabeth, surname unknown. She died on Sept. 18. 1649 and was buried in the Rowley Burial Ground. They had no children.  On Mar. 2, 1650, Edward married Hannah Grant, daughter of Thomas Grant and Jane Haburne.
