I have now updated our researcher list at: http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~gungazo/kilhamresearchers.html Those of you who are from the same family group will probably want to compare notes with each other. Regards, Deb Gunther

Actually, what I should have said is that my interest is only in those lines of the Killam's who married into the Kimble/Kimball family (there were many of them ... e.g., Rush Killam m. Ada J. Kimble ... they lived in Rock Co., WI and other Killams that I'd have to pull out my books in order to get their names). The Killam line I am *MOST* interested in is that of Eliza. She married Newcomb Kimble. I've always wondered how she came to be in MI in the first place. Excerpt from my website: He married ELIZA KILLAM (born May 15, 1820 at Paupack, Pennsylvania; died June 17, 1890) in 1842 in Albion, Calhoun Co, Michigan. Both Newcomb and Eliza are buried in Otter Creek Cemetery, Lima, Wisconsin. "In 1840, Newcomb bought 240 acres of government land in Lima Township. He built a log house and a barn and then returned to Michigan to marry Eliza. They both returned to Wisconsin by ox cart. Newcomb was the first assessor and postmaster of Lima Township." Their children (all Kimble) were: Rankin, Rice, Warren, Charles, Emma and Ralph.

Connie: I would like to pick your line up with John Killam b. in Wenham 3 November 1695, m. Abigail Symonds of Boxford, daughter of Samuel Symonds and Abigail Porter, 8 February 1724/25. John died 15 January 1738/9 at age 43. There son, Ensign John Killam, b. 1 May 1729 in Boxford, m. Priscilla Bradstreet of Topsfield, daughter of John Bradstreet and Elizabeth Fisk, 12 June 1764. She died in 1807 and John Killam died 11 October 1818, age 89. If you ever get back to Massachusetts, you must call me for a tour of Kilhamland. I know where your Johns and their wives are buried. It is in the little cemetery I found on the old farm bought by Thomas in 1701. It is bordered on one side by the head waters of the Ipswich River and nestled in a wooded grove. I went nuts when I discovered this hidden pearl. Somewhere in my heaps and piles, a common genealogist characteristic, is the inventory of the cemetery. I think that Samuel Killam, b. 2 April 1779 in Boxford, m. Lois Holt of Reading 29 January 1807, and died 28 May 1839, age 60, is also buried in this cemetery. Everybody had forgot about this site until I discovered old records indicating its existence. The cemetery itself has a wonderful history. I also have a copy of the original deed transferring the 100 acre property to Thomas Killam from Zerubabal Endicott in 1701. Plus I have a picture of the old Killam farm house taken at the last reunion before WW II. The house still exists but has been moved to River Rd. in Topsfield, and been completely remodeled. Your Francis Augustus Peabody Killam was the born in Boxford but removed to Manchester where your line went on.

Yes, please submit with disclaimers where needed. (Sounds like asking someone to make love.) This new web site could be of great help to those like yourself who have hit an area of confusion. Through pooling information we will get to what if true and what is fiction or what is acceptable based on enough circumstantial evidence. Why flounder around alone when you can be joined by those on the same line as you. Strength in numbers. If there are mistakes in your submission, others will help straighten the facts out with you. That is the whole point of this effort, to get correct lineages thus creating a base for those now and for those to come. Keep your chin up, I been to the "dance" you are doing twice before. There is a silver lining out there once it is over, but it will be a bit of time before you see it, so hang in there for now. I have complete confidence you will survive.

I wonder if Juli means that the Kilhams married into one of her distant lines, an uncle or aunt-type relationship? In my case, my lines intermarried with the Briggs and Simmons lines so much that I had to document a lot of them just to see which cousins married which cousins. So, even though I have a lot of "stuff" on them I'm not a descendant myself.

If you're thinking about adding your descendancy to our board, and your links are somewhat unproven, please go ahead and join us. Maybe someone in the board will be able to help you with your proof. As for myself, I have 2 unproven links in the line that give me nightmares, but there's enough circumstantial evidence that I feel confident enough to keep researching the upstreams. (The nightmare, of course, is that one day I'll find that missing bit of data, and it conflicts with my presumptions, and I will have to disown myself from all my hard-earned family links. Uggh!)

Connie: Thank you for your efforts. Did you send this to Deb Gunther? I will forward it anyways. You and I are related through Thomas Killam (named spelling changed to Killam when he moved to Boxford, MA). Do I have a story for you. The long and the short of it is I found the old and almost forgotten Killam/Chase Cemetery in Boxford on the former land of the farm that Thomas bought from Zereberal Endicott, grandson of Colonial Governor of Massachusetts, in 1701. I have info up to my elbows (almost swore) on Thomas. This line is hard to find others who are researching it. That is one of the smaller reasons I am writing my book on the family. Thomas served in Major Appleton's Company during the King Phillips Wars, you will see his named spelled Kyllam. I will probably have to call you to relate all the info I have, it is to much to write. I am off to Florida for three weeks on June 13th, so we will have to share findings either before or after then.

Re: MY Kellam book, winding down, plan to mail on 12 or 14 June, if everyone on other ends--(translate, printer, etc) do their bit o.k.. It went from being a 350 page deal, to abt 719, and that doesn't count the photos, which are plentiful.--hence the delay in getting it out. I had a non genealogist,non related to anyone in the book including me--read some bits, pieces--show it to thier family who were visiting from out west. among the good things said "We all decided, we'd like to be adopted so we can be in these families---ours would never make a book like this." Other satisfying comments: "I can understand the way things hook together and who belongs to who." Sheila // Firehair

Hi Rick, Thanks for the reply. I bet your great Aunts fellow knows my nephew who is the chief of Police in Manchester. I also think Manchester is a beautiful little town. I lived there until I was 12 years old. A lot of years ago. As you requested I am sending my family line. My documentation came from the Wenham and Boxford Vital Records. If more information is needed please contact me. Connie Austin Kilham m. Alice Gorball Daniel Kilham m. Mary Safford Thomas Kilham m. Martha Solart John Killam m. Abigail Symonds John Killam m.

If your husband does exist and has a lineage we would definitely love to submit his lineage (with all the Daniels). Every piece of information helps in one way or another. I would encourage you to send in your husband's line, that is if he is still in good standing with you.

Hi, When I copy/pasted url from your emaill I got on site fine, BUT when I copy/pasted from "Rick" email below is what I got. llWhy? I cannot tell you, but thanks for giving lkurl again lMeredith Gibson ===================================================== Can't Find Web Site Did you click on a link? The site may no longer exist or it may have moved. If you know the exact Web address, type it into the address box at the top of your screen. Did you type a Web address? Double-check for any misspellings, punctuation errors, or extra spaces. Or try including http://www. at the beginning (i.e., if the address you were given is aol.com, type http://www.aol.com/). Still no luck? Try one of these links: http://www.netcenter.com/ or http://www.digitalcity.com/. If these work, any problems probably lie with the site you were trying to visit. If they don't work, close all programs currently running. Restart your computer, sign back on, and try the site again. ===================================================== which I did and still did lnot work.?
