3219 Richard came to this country in the ship Elizabeth, William Andrews, master, in 1634. He appears to have gone, soon after landing, to Watertown, Mass. He settled in a different part of the town from that occupied by Henry Kemball (1). According to Bond and other writers Richard and Henry were brothers. There is but little evidence to support this supposition, and it seems to be mainly founded on the fact that they both came over on the same vessel. Richard is said on the shipping list to be thirty-nine years old, but he was probably somewhat older. He was, however, in the prime of life, and soon became a prominent and active man in the new settlement.

He first settled in Watertown, and his home lot is thus given by Dr. Henry Bond: "Richard Kimball, six acres, bounded on the north by Cambridge, east by the land of W. Hamlet, south by the highway, and west by land of Edward White."

This lot was situated a long way from the centre of the town. It is now in Cambridge, which many years ago annexed the eastern part of Watertown. The lot was situated near what is now the corner of Huron avenue and Appleton street, and near springs of water.

He was proclaimed freeman on 6 May 1635, and was a proprietor in 1636-7. Soon after this date he was invited to remove to Ipswich, where they were in need of a competent man to act as wheelwright to the new settlement. Here he spent the remainder of his days. The town granted him a house lot, 23 Feb 1637, "next adjoining Goodwin Simons at the west end of the town." He was also granted at the same time "40 acres Beyond the North Riuer near the land of Robert Scott." In 1639 he had liberty to pasture "two cows free." On "the last day of the last month 1641" he is mentioned as "Among the Commoners of Ipswich." He was appointed one of the seven men on 1 Mar 1645. On the "22nd day of the tenth mo. 1647" he was allowed two Pounds for killing two foxes.

His services as wheelwright were appreciated by his townspeople, for he was permitted in January, 1649, "to fell such White Oaks as he hath occasion to use about his trade for the town use."

19 Dec 1648, he contributed with others three shillings as his annual proportion toward the sum of £27, 7s, as a rate for the service of their military leader, Major David Dennison, then commander of the military forces of Essex and Norfolk counties.

In September, 1652, he was one of the appraisers of the estate of John Cross, one of the earliest settlers of Ipswich.

On the "25th day, 11 mo 1652," he and his son Richard, Wheelwrights, "for £14, seel 30 acres upland bounding on the land of Mr. John Winthrop," also another lot of land of ten acres of "medow." 1653 he was one of a committee of three to survey fences in the common fields north of the river. His brother-in-law, Thomas Scott, died Feb. 1653-4 and he was joint executor with Edmund Bridges of his will. On May 25, 1654, their official position was recognized by Thomas Scott, Jr., then a resident of Stamford, Conn.

In 1660 he was granted the right "to fell 20 white oak trees to make wheels for the townsmen their use." In 1664 he owned 43 shares in "Plumb Island."

Richard Kimball was of the parish of Rattlesden, county of Suffolk, England, as is shown by the following entry on the parish register:
" Henry Kemball ye sonne of Richard and Vrsula his wife baptized 1615 12 of August."

Ursula Scott, Richard's first wife, and mother of all his children, was the daughter of Henry Scott of Rattlesden. The Scott family had been in Suffolk county almost as long as the Kemball family. George Scott, grandfather of Henry, was buried at Bradsfield, St. George, 30 Aug 1562. Ursula was baptised at Rattlesden 14 Feb 1596-7, and married Richard Kemball in 1613. The will of Henry Scott, Ursula's father, serves to establish the relationship between the families.

"To Abigale Kemball my grandchild twenty shillings to be paid at 21 to Henrie Kemball my grandchild twenty shillings to be paid at 21 to Elizabeth Kemball my grandchild twenty shillings to be paid at 21 to Richard Kemball my grandchild twenty shillings to be paid at 21." He also mentions his wife Martha, and sons Roger and Thomas Scott. Thomas Scott came with his wife, Elizabeth (Strutt) Scott and children to this country on the same vessel as Richard and his family, and they brought Martha (Whatlock) Scott with them. Elizabeth Strutt was also of Rattlesden; her parents were probably Christopher and Anne (Waller) Strutt. She married Thomas Scott at Rattlesden, 20 Jul 1620. Among the children of Thomas Scott was Elizabeth, bapt. 18 Nov 1623, in Suffolk, and given in the shipping list as 9 years of age. This Elizabeth Scott married in Rowley, MA in 1647, John Spofford, from an ancient Yorkshire family (pre-dating 106, according to the records). John Spofford was the son of another John Spofford, who, in 1662, lost his ministery in Silkston, Yorkshire for "non-conformity." He was, of course, a Puritan. A daughter of John and Elizabeth (Scott) Spofford, Sarah Spofford, born 22 Mar 1661-2, married Richard Kimball(3). The passengers on the Elizabeth were very much an inter-related group; it also included Munnings, undoubtedly related to Richard Kimball.

Henry Scott's will was made "24 Sept. 1625 in the 21st year of James of England by Henry Scott of Rattlesden in the Co. of Suffolk and the diocese of Norwich." It was proved in the court of the Arch deacon of Sudbury 10 January 1624-5. As Thomas Scott settled in Ipswich this may have had some influence in causing Richard's removal from Watertown. Henry Scott was buried in Rattlesden 24 Dec. 1624. (Parish Register.)

Ursula (Scott) Kimball apparently died in Ipswich 1 Mar 1660, although another record gives her death as 17 June 1656. Richard Kimball married second, 23 Oct 1661, Margaret (Cole) Dow, widow of Henry Dow of Hamptom, New Hampshire. There were no children from this marriage, although, from his will, Richard evidently held Margaret Dow's children from her first marriage in great affection. (NEW&GR), (Hotten), (Spofford)

3220 Richard Hunt was an officer in the French and Indian War and served in a New Jersey militia regiment in the war of the Revolution. Hunt, Lieutenant Richard (I1978)
 
3221 Richard was born in Rattlesden, in the county of Suffolk, England, about 1623, and came to America in the ship Elizabeth with his father. He married twice, both his wives having Mary for a given name. There is some conjecture as to the identity of the first Mary. One source states she was Mary Cooley; Torrey lists her as Mary Smith, the daughter of John. It is probable, however, that the second was Mary Gott. His first wife died 2 Sep 1672. He had eight children that were alive at the time of his death, as is shown by an agreement made between them and his widow. Their names are not given in the agreement. Several depositions of his are on file in the court records of Salem. In September, 1658, he says: "That his Uncle Thomas Scott of Ipswich challenged the upland down to the marsh and his son after him while I lived on Goodman Shatswell's farm for seven years."

Richard Kimball of Wenham was grand juror in 1661.

Richard was of Topsfield in 1664. He was called a wheelwright and a yeoman. He removed to Wenham between the years 1652 and 1656. He was the first settler of the name in Wenham. He settled in the western part of the town, near Ladd's hill. He appears to have been the largest taxpayer among the early settlers, and his descendants have generally been in comfortable circumstances. He was a large land holder, as is shown by numerous transactions recorded in Salem, Massachusetts. On 6 Jul 1665, he sold to his brother Caleb, for £30, his house with one acre of land about it and six acres in the common field, all included in the bounds of Ipswich.

8 Nov 1657, he subscribed £3 as minister's rate, to be paid one half in wheat and one half in Indian corn. The next year he was chosen selectman, in which office he continued, with the exception of three years, till 1674. 4 Dec 1660, he was on the committee to see about building the new meeting house. The matter was deferred until 21 Aug 1663, when the committee, at last having agreed to build, he was one of the committee to join with the selectmen to put out the contract.

28, 12 mo (Feb) 1663, "tis agreed yt there then shall be 200 Akers of land of ye best of our comon Leased to foure men for 1000 years: viz. to Abner Ordway, Thomas Searles, John Edwards & Richard Kemball Jr. They yielding and paying to the town severally for every fifty akers. 5s. for the first year & ten the second yere and 15s the third yere and 20s the fourth yere 30s the fifth yere & 40s the sixth yere & so to pay yerely viz. 40s per yere during the above term. Also all the abouve rent is to be paid yerely for the use of the ministry among us." he was also of the committee to perfect the line between the Bass river and Wenham, and 18 Jul 1673, was on a committee to establish rates for the cost of building the meeting house, which was voted to be "18 ft. square 18 ft. Stud, to be added to the Roberts house."

Richard died 26 May 1676, and a few items taken from his inventory are of interest. The amount of his estate was £986.16s.6d

"Item the dwelling house & 132 acres of land and 17 acres of medow belong to it. £370. About 200 acres of land in Rowley Village.

"Due from Daniel Gott for rent £3. per year during the natural life of Mary the wife of the late Richard Kimball of Wenham. Due from the contry for wages and other debts £2.16s00.

"Samuel Kemball and Thomas Kemball sons of the deceased have the power of administration granted, and give oath to the truth of the inventory 27, 9 mo. (Nov) 1676.

"Due from his father's executors £35.10s."

[From a document on file at Salem, Massachusetts.]

"Whereas Samuel and thomas kemball sons of Richard kemball of Wenham late deceased have power of administration granted them by the court at Salem they together with Mary Kemball their mother-in-law having left it to this court to proportion the estat between them and to order what the widdow mary Kemball late wife of the said Richard Kemball desessed, shall have ordered as followeth, there being £800. estat the widdow shall have what she brought with her, which is £19.16s and the £18.15s mentioned in the said inventory and also she shall be alowed three pounds per yer during her naturall life payed out of the estat aforesaid by the children of her said husband and also while she remaineth a widdoe and dwelt with them the said children are to keep their mother a cow and four sheep and one swine winter and summer. she to solt her swin at her owne cost, with the rooms in the house which she lives in, this to be in full satisfaction for her thirds out of the estat of her sayd husband, and £800. abov said to be divided equally between the eight children of the deceased Richard Kemball, onely to John the eldest son a dubble portion; only the other six children are to alow out of ther part of the estat for all the troble in paying the debts & and the land to stand (__) for the formance of the same.
yn court held at ypswich the 26 of sept. 1676.
Attest Robert Lord Cler."

From the circumstances that he had wages due from the country, as is stated in the inventory, it is probable that he had been engaged in the war with the Indians, and was probably with his nephew, Caleb Kimball, at the time the latter was killed at Bloody Brook.

3237 Robert H Logan

Submitted by Donna W. Collins

Robert Logan was born June 22, 1840, Fayette County, Alabama to Robert "Bob" Logan and Virginia Jane "Jennie" McCaleb. The Logans were staunch Republicans and Church of Christ believers. Robert had been raised as a Presbyterian but was supposedly converted by Andrew Campbell.

The eight brothers, born between 1823 and 1847 all supported the Union cause although the oldest, Daniel Lapsley "Lap" Logan could not enlist for medical reasons. Because of a hernia, he was unable to serve in the Union Army with his brothers but he helped build bridges for the Union forces. It is possible Lap died from tuberculosis although it is rumored he was murdered and his body tied on the back of horse, taken home, and thrown into the yard.

Robert voluntarily enlisted in the Union Army, January 16, 1863, with Company B, 1st Regiment, Alabama Calvary at Glendale, Mississippi and was signed in by P. A. Sternburg. He was mustered in January 22, 1863 at Corinth, Mississippi as a private. Robert was captured by the enemy while in battle at Vinsons (same as Vincent's on 10/26/1863?) Cross Roads and held prisoner for days. Service records from Washington D.C. do not provide the exact number of days. He was honorably discharged in Memphis, Tennessee on February 6, 1864. Robert was also an Alabama Torie.

On October 10, 1867, Robert married Mary Elizabeth Matthews, born June 11, 1848, at the bride's home in Lamar County, Alabama by Justice of the Peace, John G. Holloway. Mary was the daughter of Henry Walter Matthews and Roxanna Maddox. Robert and Mary had nine children, the last one born seven months after Robert was killed June 21, 1884 while operating a threshing machine when his clothing caught in one of the belts and pulled him into the machine. The machine was owned by Mr. Whitehead and located on Hobson Creek near the Whitehouse Church of Christ. Robert was buried, along with his wife, in the Whitehouse Church of Christ Cemetery, Marion County, Alabama. 
Logan, Robert Henry (I358)
 
3238 Robert had 400 acres of land in Hanover County, Virginia 1735. He patented land in new Kent County, Virginia in 1729 1300 acres. The Vestry Book of St. Paul's Parish, Hanover County , Virginia for 1706-86 lists Robert in the Processioning of Lands in 1732, 1735, 1739 and 1744.

Died in 1748, his wife Rachel, and oldest son, Robert II, divided his land by deeds on record in Louisa County, Virginia. These deeds indicate Robert and Rachel had nine children, as follows:

Robert II of Louisa County, Va.

Francis of Louisa County, Va., received 200 acres of land lying on both sides of Christopher Run in Louisa County.

William Hester of Louisa County, Va., received 200 acres lying on both sides of Christopher Run in Louisa County.

David Hester of Louisa County, Va., received 200 acres adjacent to William Hester's property in Louisa County.

Mary Whicker of Louisa County, Va., received 100 acres adjoining David Hester's property in Louisa County.

Elizabeth Hester, widow of Henry Hester, of Louisa County, Virginia, received 100 acres adjoining Thomas Whicker's property in Louisa County.

Hugh Hester of Louisa County, Va., received 200 acres on both sides of Christopher Run in Louisa County.

John Hester of Hanover County, Va., received 200 acres on the lower side of Christopher's Run adjoining Hugh Hester's property in Louisa County.

Information from Chris Bryant Homepage

St. Lukes' district, early Person County, NC in 1783, Robert Hester, Sr. owned 200 acres of land, one white pole and three blacks. His will dated 22 August, 1820 and probated June 1827 in Persons County NC listed 6 children Henry, William Buck, Nicholas, Elijah, Nancy Malone and Sally Malone. The tax records of Persons County, NC list William Hester in 1806 with one white pole and one vote.
Person County, NC was founded in 1791. There were at least 3 Robert Hesters who were soldiers in the Revolutionary War and there is no doubt but what the ancestors of Robert Hester, Sr. belonged to the Virginia group of 1680. However, the official record of them during that period has not been located. A copy of the will of Robert Hester Sr. may be obtained from the Hall of Archives, Raleigh, NC for a small fee. The original is recorded in Will Book #10, page 328. It was tranferred there several years ago from Roxboro, NC. A copy of the marriage license of William Hester and Amy Malone may be obtained from the County Clerk, Person County, Roxboro, NC for a fee.

Robert Hester served in the Revolutionary War. His will, dated August 22, 1820 and probated June 1827 in Person Co., NC and listed his children.
