On his return from Lexington, MA in the night previous to the 19th of April, 1775, where he spent the evening in paying his addresses to the daughter of Mr. Mulliken, he soon overtook Paul Revere and William Dawes on their way to Concord to alarm the people and apprise them of the intended expedition of the British soldiers upon Concord. When the three had arrived near Hartwell's Tavern in the lower bounds of Lincoln, MA, they were attacked by four British officers of a scouting party sent out the preceding evening. Revere and Dawes were taken prisoners, Prescott was also attacked and had the reigns of his horse's bridle cut, but he escaped by jumping his horse over the wall, and, taking a circuitous route through Lincoln, he pushed on with the utmost speed to Concord, and gave the alarm of the approach of the British. He was subsequently taken prisoner on board a privateer, and carried to Halifax, Nova Scotia, where he died in prison.

Hello again, My apologies to William DAWES, the 1700's patriot ! I meant to go remind myself of his first name before I clicked Send on my last posting, and I forgot ! Here is a web page which mentions the rides of William DAWES, Paul REVERE, and Dr. Samuel PRESCOTT: http://www.mountalverniahs.org/Mahs/Hist-Lit10/Lexington/PaulRevere.htm Here's another page which tells "the real story of REVERE's ride" ... http://www.paulreverehouse.org/ride/real.shtml http://www.paulreverehouse.org/ride/ http://www.paulreverehouse.org/about/ Note: As people drive around the towns where "the original 13 colonies" were, do you notice how many houses built in the 1700's .. still stand ? (As people on the Nova Scotia List were discussing during the winter, technically, originally, there were "the original 14 colonies.") http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_Revere's_Ride If you do a Google search for "Paul Revere, William Dawes," you will find many more web sites !

John J. RICE was born abt. 1831 in Louth, Ireland..probably in the Ballymascanlan area. He may have connections to the area of Crossmaglen, in southern Armagh County, Ireland also. He was a shoemaker/bootmaker by trade. He married Sarah HAGAN, b. abt. 1835, in Ravensdale, Ballymascanlan Civil Parish/Lordship Catholic Parish of Louth by 1853. John and Sarah immigrated to Hopkinton, Massachusettes in 1853. There they had a daughter Mary Ann RICE b. 1856 (married Ambrose William "William" GRANT; died Chicago, IL 1942). John and Sarah returned to Louth, Ireland by 1858 for the birth of their son Barney RICE in 1858. Sponsors for Barney's baptism were a Barney and Ann RICE. A family letter states Mary HAGAN RICE wanted to go back to her family in Ireland for the birth of their second child. Mary RICE died in childbirth and it is unknown whether Barney lived or not, and if he did if he ever left Ireland or was raised by family there. John J. RICE then married Mary Ann BREEN/BRIEN in Lordship Parish in 1861. Witnesses were Terance BREEN and Ann RICE. Two children were born in Ireland..Michael b. 1861. Baptismal sponsors were Terence BREEN and Mary RICE. And Margaret (nee DOOLEY) b. 1863. Baptismal sponsors were John McDONALD and Mary McBRIDE). The family immigrated to Milwaukee, WI abt. 1866 where they had 8 more children: Elizabeth b. 1867 (nee RODEN), Catharine b. 1869, Bridget Jane "Jenny" b. 1872 (nee NELLINS), Agnes Mary b. 1874 (nee BOOTH), John Joseph b. 1876 (married M. ENGELN), James Patrick b. 1879 (married C. MURTAUGH), Sarah Martha b. 1880 (nee LARKIN) and Florence Rose b. 1884. I'm looking for connections to ANY lines in this family. The records in this area of Ireland do not go back far enough for me to find the parents or any siblings of John RICE so I'm trying to find another route to find his family. Possible names that may be related to John J. RICE are Thomas or Daniel RICE. Trying to break down a brick wall, Sally in Wisconsin

Hello, Since "Patriot's Day" will be happening next week in New England, I thought I would mention "a little piece of history" which I learned in the most unlikeliest of places during the past week ! For those of us who grew up just outside of Boston, especially in towns like Arlington, Lexington, Bedford, and Concord, we know about the famous "Paul REVERE," and most hopefully know about his associate, "_____ DAWES." I stood on Massachusetts Avenue in Arlington or Lexington many times growing up .. either watching a parade or watching someone re-enact "Paul Revere's ride." So, I was quite surprised to find out there was another "rider" that night ! About 4-6 days ago, my friend put on one of the HBO channels * on Cable TV, and we caught most of a very funny show -- where an actor / comedian was teaching college students a "history lesson." We laughed many times about the very unique way this man was - teaching history ! * I learned a few things (not being a very good history student in school), but, one thing which I found most important to me - was finding out about .... Israel BISSELL !! As it turned out, Israel didn't get on horseback .. "to go tell every town" that "the 'Red Coats' were coming," .. Israel headed to .. Pennsylvania ! "He rode day and night for four days, six hours, ... covering 345 miles from Watertown to the City Hall in Philadelphia !" This is only one of many web pages I found which tells his story ! http://www.dwroth.com/frames/finearts/historical/bissell/bissell1.htm Just a Google search for "Israel BISSELL," (using quotes) will find more ! ..One note is that I don't remember seeing that surname mentioned on the Lists too often ! Is anyone researching BISSELL ? Plus, just wanted to remind researchers of all the activities in and around Boston next week: http://boston.about.com/cs/history/a/patriots_day.htm http://boston.about.com/od/artentertainment/tp/2006April.htm I think there are at least 3 states which celebrate "Patriot's Day" as a holiday; Virginia and Maine are the others, I believe ! http://www.patriotday.org/ http://www.shopsmithfield.com/ It's harder to find web sites which discuss "Patriot's Day," but Google search for "Patriot's Day, April" finds some of them ! Thank you for your time ! Betty (near Lowell, MA) * My friend and I didn't make note of the show on HBO, and we don't know whether it is "a series" or not ! But, if I can find it playing again, we will definitely watch it again ! I need another good laugh ! And, I need to learn more history ! :o)

Subject: NUTTING FAMILY Source: Groton Historical Series by Dr. Samuel A. Green Vol 2 1890 Letter from Mary E. Nutting to Dr. Samuel A. Green continued Part 2, "John Nutting" p.260 His wife was, according to the records, a widow at Woburn in 1676. Perhaps they went there naturally, in their extremity, for Ruth Eggleton, a sister of Sarah (Eggleton) Nutting was the wife of Samuel Blodgett of Woburn. In the Woburn town records is the entry: "To widow Nutting for a wolfe ....00-10-00." Perhaps however, she did not kill the wolf, but one of her wolf-killing sons did. Wolf-killing, together with fighting the Indians, seems to have been the principal diversion in Groton. p.261 Beside John and James who settled in Groton, there were two sons who lived to grow up, Jonathan and Ebenezer Nutting; of these one settled in Cambridge, the other in Medford. Mary Died perhaps unmarried; she is not mentioned in the settlement of her father's estate in 1716. Another daughter, Sarah, married John Stone of Groton; and a daughter Deborah married and lived in Concord. My note: Sarah Nutting m. (1) in 1681 Matthias Farnsworth, Jr. of Groton, MA son of Matthias Farnsworth and wife, Mary Farr. She was the dau of John Nutting an original proprietor of Groton and lived directly north of the place where James's Brook crosses the Groton Main Street, and had one of the most ancient of the garrisons of Groton and not very far from the garrison house of Capt. James Parker on the southerly side of the brook. Matthias Jr. died and she m. (2) John Stone, brother to Deacon Simon Stone (who had married Matthias's sister Sarah Farnsworth) She was m. to John Stone on Dec 16, 1698 - She had seven children by Matthias Farnsworth and Caleb Butler p. 438 says she had two sons by John Stone: John Stone, Jr. b. 1699 and James Stone b. 1701. Source: Farnsworth Memorial. p.261 (continued) John Nutting, the eldest son of the emigrant had five sons, John, Daniel, Ebenezer, Jonathan and Eleazar Nutting. Of these, Jonathan Nutting was the ancestor of the leading Nutting family in Groton. A son of his, William, was father of William Nutting, Esq., still rememb- ered by aged people as old Squire Nutting. There is no descendant of his name in Groton now (1888) unless some one has returned there re- cently. His farm was situated below the Soapstone Quarry, near the Nashua River. He was an ancestor, however, of the late Dr. Isaiah Hall Nutting, whom you remember; of the Professor Rufus Nutting, who "held the even tenor of his way, in an uninterrupted course of classical instruction in the Academy and the College, for more than forty years;" and of Rev. John Keep Nutting. Mary Olivia Nutting, for many years librarian at Mount Holyoke Seminary, is a grand-daughter of this "old Squire Nutting." The scope of this letter will not enable me to enter upon the descend- ants of John Nutting 2nd, as well as John's third and fourth, with a host of others, in Groton and elsewhere. But I will try to give a little information about the Captain John Nutting of whom you were speaking. James Nutting, the 2nd son of the emigrant had two sons, William Nutting who left no children, and James Nutting, who was one of the first settlers of Pepperell. I have not the date of birth of this second James; but as William was born in 1712, after a good number of sisters, there is a presumption that he was born about 1714, or later. James Nutting had three sons in Pepperell, of whom the eldest, John Nutting is described as "an ingenious mechanic, and a captain in the American Revolution." He was with Prescott at the Battle of Bunker Hill (Colonel William Prescott). Pulsifer mentions him, in his "Account of the Battle of Bunker Hill," p.11: "Captain Nutting, with some troops, was ordered into Charlestown, near the ferry, by Colonel Prescott, to guard against the enemy's approach on that side." In the "muster roll of Captain John Nutting's Company of minute men in Colonel William Prescott's Regiment, who marched from Pepperell ye 19th of April 1775," I have found the names of Josiah, Benjamin, Ebenezer and Samuel Nutting, all of Pepperell. p.262 And on a coat-roll, of those "entitled to a coat for 8 mos. service in 1775," beside Captain John, Ebenezer, Corporal, and Samuel, there are Abel, Ezekiel and Ephraim Nutting of Captain Asa Lawrence's company, these last all of Groton. Captain John Nutting afterwards led an expedition into Rhode Island in July, August and September, 1778. I do not know the site of his homestead in Pepperell; but he owned land near some of Colonel Prescott's (land), as I judge by a conveyance to a certain Levi Nutting. This land is described as "in the north part of Pepperell, bounded on the north by Colonel Prescott's land, on the east by Captain John Nutting's land, and on the south and west by the town road,: etc. There is a reference to Captain John Nutting in "The Massachusetts Gazette," August 29, 1786. He was chairman of a committee from Pepper- ell and the neighborhood, who sent a circular letter of remonstrance and appeal to the selectmen of Cambridge and other towns, from whom they received but little sympathy. I have never lighted, to my knowledge, upon any one who claimed that Captain John Nutting was my ancestor, and so cannot judge how green his memory may be among his descendants; and I cannot, with such materials as I have at hand, answer your questions as to dates about him. I wish that I were a better helper, and am Yours sincerely, Mary E. Nutting. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Transcribed by Janice Farnsworth

Subject: NUTTING FAMILY Source: Groton Historical Series by Dr. Samuel A. Green Vol 2 1890 p. 259 Boston, September 1, 1888 My Dear Dr. Green, I am sorry to say that of the early NUTTINGS I know much more concern- ing those who settled in Cambridge, Medford and Salem, than of those who remained at Groton. John Nutting, my great-great-great-great-grandfather, came to this country not long before 1650. I think he came from County Kent, but cannot make the conjecture a certainty. He was married in Woburn, Aug 28 (28 of 6 mo), 1650 to Sarah Eggleton, who is believed to have died on the voyage over, in the ship Castle. In the Woburn town records there is a further entry: "____, son of John Nutting, borne ye ____ 1651." This first John, the emigrant, was one of the petitioners for the town of Chelmsford, in the spring of 1655. I have not examined the Chelms- ford town books, so I cannot give the exact date of his settling there. But I have seen a record, kept by Reverend John Fiske, minister of the church in Chelmsford at that time. According to the record, on the 6 of 5 mo., 1656, "Testimony was given touching John Nutting and his wife, who had propounded themselves to our fellowship;" and on the 13 of 5 mo., "There was joyned to the church John Nutting, after his rela- tion made and assent manifested to the profession and covenant of the church, [and] John Nutting's wife, her relation being repeated by an officer of the church." Under date 3 of 6/56 there is a record of the baptism of their children: John, 5 years old 25 of 6 mo./56. James, 3 years old 30 of 4 mo./56 Mary, 1 year old 10 of 11 mo./56 This five-year-old John Nutting was evidently the son born at Woburn in 1651 p.260 There is a hint that the father was zealous for his children's education, as he is entered as having contributed 11s.3d., out of f4 11s.3d., for the purchase of catechisms, the number of contributors being eight. Under date 9 of 9 mo./61, John Nutting and others "propounded to the church that having some thought and inclination to a remove, they de- sired that they may have the church's prayers for a blessing of God upon their undertaking." This move being discussed, Brother Nutting assigned as a reason that having several small children both himself and his wife "were much deprived of the ordinances by their present situation;" he therefore wished to live nearer the Meeting-house. This wish was fulfilled; for in Groton, whither he went, his house must have been hard by the sanctuary. He seems not to have taken the Freeman's oath until several years after he had joined the church; for the date is given in the Massachusetts Records as 30 May, 1660. He was one of the proprietors of Groton, and as nearly as I can make out from copies of deeds, etc., had about a hundred acres of land "bounded northerly by Capt. Josiah Parker's, southerly by Baddicook Pond, and easterly by the town common;" with another tract about the same extent "over the river," as well as smaller parcels, etc. His house was one of the earliest garrisons of the town. It would be imp- ossible to distinguish between him and his son John altogether; but the tradition of captivity among the Indians refers possibly to his son. In the history of the attack upon Groton in King Philip's War, it is said that the garrisoned houses, five in number, all escaped but one, which was taken, there being of the English one slain and two wounded. It is a matter of history that Nutting's garrison was the one which did not escape, and the family tradition is distinct that he was killed at that time. This letter from the descendant, Mary E. Nutting to Dr. Samuel A. Green will be continued in Part 2, "John Nutting" ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Transcribed by Janice Farnsworth

I photocopied a bunch of pages from the Malden MA State Census - any name resembling Kiley - so if you are interested in Malden in 1865, I can look to see if I have copied your family of interest. I only have about 50 dwellings represented out of 1200-1400 in the town for the year, so the odds are not good, but I will look. I am typing up the Kelleys to share online.

Is there any reference of John Hart, son of Daniel and Bethia (McIntyre) Hart born in Groton, MA 27 May 1780. John Hart went to Vermont before 1804 when his first known son, Homer W. was born John Hart died `1852 and Prudence (White) died 1859. They are both buried in the Brandon, Rutland, VT "Old One" Congregational Church yard. I cannot find a marriage record and do not know when OR why John went to Vermont. John Hart is my 3rd Great Grandfather. I will appreciate any help with this family. Hopefull in California, Betty

This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Fullick Nutting Wood Whall Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/AFB.2ACE/1806 Message Board Post: I have recently come across some Fullicks in MA - the earliest of which is James Fullick who appears in the 1806 census. One marriage is between John Fullick and Emma Nutting. I would be interested to hear from anyone interested in the same line or any other mentions of Fullick in the area. Other common spellings of the surname include Fullock, Fulleck and Fulluck Jenny
