Here is a whole line of PAGEs from NH who are descended from a Benjamin Page, b. in 1640, who immigrant to Mass. in 1660 which I found on the Internet: Page, Samuel Smith The following data is extracted from Merrimack and Sullivan Counties, New Hampshire Biographies Source: http://www.accessgenealogy.com/scripts/data/database.cgi?file=Data&report=SingleArticle&ArticleID=0024011 "Samuel Smith Page, who for more than forty years was one of the most esteemed residents of Hopkinton, was born September 30, 1822, in Dunbarton, N.H. He is a descendant of Benjamin Page, who was born in 1640, in Dedbam (sic, Dedham, co. Essex ?), fifty-seven miles north-east of London, England. In 1660, on account of religious differences, Benjamin came to America, locating in Haverhill, Mass., where on September 21, 1666, he married Mary Whittier, who belonged to the family from which the poet, John G. Whittier, sprung. Their son, Jeremiah, the eldest of a family of sixteen, born September 14, 1667, was the next ancestor. He married Deborah Hendrick, of Newburyport, Mass., July 2, 1696; and they reared seven children, Caleb and Joshua. He died in 1752. "Caleb Page, the next in line of descent, was born August 16, 1705, and died in 1785. He married in 1728 or 1729 Ruth Wallingford, of Boston, who died in 1738. In 1740 he married a widow Carleton, of Newburyport, who weighed three hundred and fifteen pounds. She, together with a huge arm-chair, now in the possession of the Stark family, had to be carried to meeting on an ox sled. In 1749 Caleb Page removed from Haverhill, Mass., to Atkinson, N.H., where he is said to have owned land measuring one mile in opposite directions from the site of the present academy. In 1751 he sold his lands in Atkinson for his wife's weight in silver dollars, and located in Dunbarton, this county. The country was then infested with Indians; and his daughter Elizabeth, who later became the wife of General John Stark of Revolutionary fame, often stood, musket in hand, as guard at the rude block-house. In 1758 Governor Wentworth appointed Caleb Page Captain of Provincials. The commission given to him on this occasion is copied in full in the History of Dunbarton. Caleb, who is said to have had a noble and benevolent spirit, had ample means to indulge his generous impulses. His money, comprising golden guineas, silver crowns and dollars, was kept in a half-bushel measure under the bed. He owned many slaves. His house was the abode of hospitality and the scene of many a happy gathering. In 1753, previous to receiving his Captain's commission, the governor sent him as a guide with Colonel Lowell, of Dunbarton, Major Talford, of Chester, and General John Stark, to mark out the road from Stevenstown, now Salisbury, to Coos. He was a firm patriot, and in 1775 was the first delegate from Dunbarton and Bow to the Provincial Congress. His children were: Caleb, Jeremiah, Elizabeth, and Molly. Caleb Page, Jr., who held a Lieutenant's commission in the French and Indian War, together with his company was ambushed by Indians between Crown Point and Ticonderoga, and killed in the ensuing massacre with several of his men, January 21, 1757. Elizabeth, born in 1736, who died in 1817, married General John Stark, by whom she had eight children; namely, John, Caleb, Archibald, Charles, Ellen, Polly, Sophia, and Frank. Molly married Deacon James Russell, of Bow. "Jeremiah Page, born in August, 1730, died November 29, 1807. In 1745 he bought land in Dunbarton, and from that time until his death was actively identified with local affairs. He served as Justice of the Peace, and did most of the surveying for Hillsborough County. In 1784 he was appointed Judge in the New Hampshire courts. In 1752 he married Sarah Merrill, of Billerica, Mass., who was born in 1732, and died September 5, 1807. Their children were: Caleb, the grandfather of Samuel Smith Page; Sarah, born in Dracut, Mass., December 24, 1754, who married A. Stinson, and died in 1835. Jeremiah, a native of Dunbarton, born in 1756, who died in 1842; Achsah, born September 25, 1759, who died in 1831, and whose successive husbands were first B. Plummer, Esq., who died in 1816, and Captain C. Coffin; Elizabeth, born August 2, 1765, who married William Tenney, and died October 22, 1838; John, born in 1767, who married M. Story in 1810, and died August 14, 1837; and Ruth, born in 1770, who married Dr. S. Sawyer, and died June 27, 1804. Caleb Page, the third bearer of the name, was born in Dracut, Mass., in April, 1751, and died June 3, 1816. His wife, Hannah, bore him seven children, three of the sons being named Caleb, John, and Peter Carleton. Peter Carleton Page, the Samuel S. Page, was born July 1, 1783, and died October 15, 1858. He married Miss Lucy Smith, who was born November 26, 1792, in Hopkinton. They reared three sons; namely, Caleb, Samuel Smith, and George. "Samuel Smith Page received his education in Pembroke, Hopkinton, and New Hampton. Ill health forced him to abandon further study; and at the age of eighteen years he began teaching school in Weston, Mass., where his mathematical ability was well displayed. A pupil relates that when the text-book was completed the young teacher propounded questions that, he said, had baffled Dartmouth professors, the class often spending its energies for a whole week on some of them. After his marriage he bought the Greenough homestead on Dimond Hill on the dividing line between Concord and Hopkinton, and there successfully carried on general farming until his death, which occurred on Thursday, October 22, 1896. "In 1852, June 10, Mr. Page married Miss Ellen Maria Cutter, of Weston, Mass., one of his pupils, who was five years younger than himself. He was a man of great intelligence and force of character, having the courage of his convictions, which he was never unwilling to express or defend. He served several terms as Moderator of Dunbarton, was a member of the Superintending School Committee, and in 1864 and 1865 was one of the Selectmen of Hopkinton. In 1840 he united with the Baptist church of his native town, having been converted during a revival, and for more than half a century after was devoted to the Christian work of that denomination as well as to the broader needs of humanity, his large and loving heart beating in sympathy with those of every sect and clime. Throughout his long illness he was a most patient and cheerful sufferer, trusting serenely in the goodness of the Divine Master. His death was a sad loss, not only to his immediate family, but to the community in which he had so long lived. The only child of Mr. and Mrs. Page was a daughter-Lucie Elizabeth, who is now the wife of Arthur Borden, of Denver, Col., and has one child, Marguerite Borden." ------------------------------- To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to [email protected] with the word 'unsubscribe' without the quotes in the subject and the body of the message

I thought that some of you might find this helpful. I found it on the new KYGENWEB list M. Dean Hunt Louisville, KY http://kygenweb.net/bibles/page.txt

I've "rescued" an old photograph identified as Grace PAGE which was taken at the C. W. Hearn Studio in Portland, Maine. The photograph appears to have been taken in the 1880's or 1890's with Grace appearing to be in her teens or 20's at the time it was taken. Based on limited research I was able to locate a possible match in census information as follows: 1910 census of Brunswick, ME: Algenon W. PAGE, age 32, 2nd marriage 3 years, born VT, parents born VT, a Railroad Brakeman Grace M. PAGE, wife, age 32, 1st marriage 3 years, no children, born at Sea, parents born USA I am hoping to locate someone from Grace's family so that this precious old treasure can be returned to her family. If you are a member of this PAGE Family, or you know someone who might be, please contact me. Thanks, Shelley

I am related from John Page 'of Haverhill'[7th great grandfather] and his son Benjamin. (DNA proves this). John and his wife Mary Marsh, daughter of George and Elizabeth (Keyes) Marsh married in Haverhill. They probably all came on the 'Truelove in 1635. No record of exactly when John came has been found but it could be from 1630-1640. The Marsh family did come on the 'Truelove and it is thought that John may have been indentured to George Marsh as a carpenter, thus coming with them. For Ben I have a baptism date of 14 July 1644 Hingham. (unpub. Hingham VR, p. 12) This is where John and his wife first went when they came to NE. In 1646 they moved with others to Haverhill. He died 28 Jan 1736 (source ?) However my next in line is son Abraham. I do have Benjamin's children in my database and agree with most of the info give. However Desc of John Page gave Jeremiah's birth as 14 Sept.1669 (p. 174)and Whittier notes of Alfred Poor say 1667 (p.7) Haverhill VR p. 453 have Jeremiah's death as 7 Dec 1749. I also have son Joshua but no further info on him. I'd be interested in corresponding with anyone who follows Abraham's line as I follow it down to my mother who was Susan Prentice (Page) Munroe Polly ----- Original Message ----- From: <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Monday, March 17, 2008 3:01 AM Subject: PAGE Digest, Vol 3, Issue 3 > > > Today's Topics: > > 1.

I don't know if these will ever connect with my Page family but what a wonderful thing to do: "rescue" an album and try to contact family members. It is so difficult to locate pictures, albums, Bibles, etc., that would help and enhance our research that any such find is wonderful.

I am a member of the family! This is wonderful news. Bela Warner Page was the son of Chauncey C. "Spencer" (b. 17 June 1834 in Cazenovia, Madison Co., NY - d. 14 Feb. 1898 in Fenton, Broome Co., NY) & wife Sarah Jane (Elliott) Page. They are descendants of my line of PAGEs who are descended from George and Sarah (Linsley) Page of Branford, New Haven, CT. George Page was born in Shorne, Co. Kent, Eng. and immigrated to CT about 1662. He died in Branford, CT, on 22 Nov. 1689. Carrie's father was Henry Johnson and her mother was Mary MacIntosh, but I don't know much about them except from the Photo Album you found. I have been researching the family members who immigrated through Greene, Madison, Oneida, Yates, Livingston, Broom, and Chenango Counties of NY before moving to MO. Please contact me directly about the disposition of the photo album. Thank you, George W.

Hi to the List again, I posted a query on the 1st of Dec looking for any info regarding Dan H. and Nancy C. PAGE. Tonight, I located a Daniel PAGE as a child in the 1860 Census of Chatham county North Carolina. His siblings are Everett, Nathan, Matilda, Lenard, John and Eli. Are any of these people in anyone's data base. Thank you again . . . Lynn R. Hudson researching for G.W. Miller

Hi . . . I'm new to this list. I am helping a friend with his Family History. Dan H. PAGE b. 7Jul 1853 in NC married Nancy C. (maiden name unknown) b. 10 Aug 1860 abt 1872 in TN. To their union they had 10 children that we are aware of. The third child Mary Frances PAGE is my friends' Grandmother. I would like to help him extend his line out. Does anyone have information about Dan H. PAGE and Nancy C. ? Or a direction that you could send us to research? Mary Frances PAGE Findley was buried in Keller Cemetery in Craighead county, Arkansas, as was Dan and Nancy. Thank you in advance for any information that may be shared. Lynn R. Hudson

Could you please send information on how tom submit DNA sample - Arthur Daniel Page

We now have had over 100 male PAGEs who have submitted cheek swabbings to have their Y-DNA tested by FTDNA and their results analyzed by me. All of those tested have been placed into one of 14 unrelated PAGE Family Lines, most of which are identified by a known immigrant 17th century PAGE ancestor of that line. We have now confirmed the 'fingerprint Y-DNA markers' of most of these lines so that the results of any Y-DNA tested male can be associated with a specific PAGE Family Line. A case in point is the following: A 62 man with a different surname sent me an E-mail stating that his father, who was a PAGE, had separate from his mother and he had an adopted name. He knew the (incomplete) names of his father and grandfather, (William) Jasper Cole Page, and had their Social Security info. showing they died in Missouri. He wished to take part in the PAGE Y-DNA Surname Project to learn more of his PAGE ancestry. He ordered a 24 marker test kit and when his first 12 marker results were made available to me I was able to place him in my Family Line N [Descended from Exolheath (Axelheath) Page of Goochland Co., VA, (d. 1780) or his close relative (brother or uncle) - 1754-1775.] Using the Federal Census Records available on-line I was able to trace his PAGE ancestry back through his ancestors who lived in Southwest MO; Howard Co., MO; Logan Co., KY; and back into VA to Exolheath Page in Goochland Co.. I was also able to put him in contact with many cousins he did not know he had, one of whom (Daniel E. Page) had written a book in 2004 that I owned: "Some Descendants of Exolheath Page of Goochland Co., Virginia and some possible relatives." It filled in all the blanks of the allied lines and details of his ancestors and relatives. Contact me if you are a male PAGE interested in learning more info about your PAGE ancestry by participating in the PAGE Surname Y-DNA Project, or if you are a female who has a male PAGE relative that you could encourage to be tested so that you can act as his proxie and also receive the Project Reports with the test results.

Reuben Harrison Page, b 1824, Union Co., PA, married Mary Kuhn 4 Oct 1849 in Patton Township, PA, and d 23 Apr 1903 in Linden Hall, Centre, PA would be my choice for a Thanksgiving guest. When he enlisted for the Civil War, he was already 39, which made him anything but a young man. He came home from the war with no bullet wounds, but for the rest of his life he had trouble breathing correctly and had a bad ankle caused by a fall from a wagon. He walked on the side of his ankle the rest of his life. I would like to find out his experiences in the war, where he was well known to have risked his life many times to return wounded soldiers to behind the lines so they could be treated. The "History of the 148th Pennsylvania Volunteer Infantry," says, "...detached 28 December 1862 to the Ambulance Corps and served most efficiently to the end; there is no risk he would not run to reach and carry off a wounded man ...." To me, just volunteering at his age showed the gumption and love of his country within his heart. (With the times as they are today, if Uncle Sam asked this 63 year old who has been out of the service almost 42 years, I would do the same thing). The other thing I would ask him is whether he ever had a picture taken. If there was, it never came down this line. And I would ask him especially, if the picture was him in uniform? David Wolff

In some very old email correspondence, there are a few emails from Nick Page that has ancestors from Attlebridge, Co. Norfolk, England that emigrated to Bradford Co., Pa, USA. probably in the 1870/80's. We have traced our Page line back to Co. Norfolk and Co. Suffolk, England and feel there is a connection with Nick Page's line. Would like to establish contact with Nick Page Robert Page [email protected] Robert Page Paradise Lost Unincorporate

Those of us in the USA will soon be celebrating Thanksgiving. Listmembers, if you could have one of your ancestors with this surname join you for Thanksgiving dinner, which ancestor would you invite? What questions would you ask him/her? Please send a post to <[email protected]> telling us about this ancestor - and please remember to include dates and locations.

Dear Daniel Page Thank you for your request about the Edmund Page family from England to Canada. There were hundreds of Page families came to Canada in the 1800’s. If you would write to me off line with a few more details it would be very helpful to other researchers someday. I will tell you what I have after this but I would like to request that you learn how to write this in genealogy format first. You have the general idea but one has to be a PHD in perfect punctuation to write it in plain English otherwise and I cannot understand a few of your notes. The main idea of a Descendancy Chart is to show as much as possible about each individual in a map that is instantly understandable who is related exactly how to who. If you use a genealogy program you don’t have to type it all out like this because the program will do it all for you - and a zillion other things. When you ask for Descendants of ABC Page it will print it all out for you in this format: John Q. Page b.June 16, 1842 Someplace, X County, England, d. July 9, 1951 Sometown, Sask. +Married Jan 1, xxxx, Montreal, Que to Spouse 1, Mary Jane Jones b.Jan1, xxxx New Serepta, AB, d. Jan25, yyyy Toronto Child 1- Johnny Page + Nancy Nice -dates if there are any Child 2 - Jane Page + Fred Brown Child 3- Jumpin Joe Page + Marion Pretty Child 5- Jimmy Page + Mary Jane Green b. 1842 d.1910 m. 1865 Child 1- Johnny Fred Page + Mary Ann Smith Child 2 - Fredie Too Page b.---. d.---, m.---- Elizabeth b.---, d---, m.--- etc. John Page + Hottie Blondin Funny Page + John Shwarts 14 generations of Shwartzes +Married Spouse 2 Emma Jonson b.---, d.---, m1 John Sharp, m2 Fred Dull, m3 ABQ Page Child 6 - Tiny Page + Fancy Dresser Child 7 - Buffalo Bill Page + Goodie Twoshoes One More Page + Gene Pool Johnnie Plays Pool Splash Ina Pool Hart Shaped Pool I think you get the idea. Sorry to get so carried away but that was fun. The main idea is that it gets REALLY complicated when you know thousands of people who are all related. I will give you some good ideas on which programs to use if you are starting out your genealogy. These families of Page who were in early Canada before 1900 I consider to be Founding Page families of Canada too. I once hoped to include them in a book showing just names but it will be impossible to do. I can help however with an awful lot of individual statistics from some of these families. I have accumulated about 5000 details from every public source I can on all the PAGE families of early Canada. Some are related to a few other names while some are related to a lot of other names. You can help me as much as I can help you. Now for the best I can do with the list you gave me- Edmund Page – 5 in the Early Canada PAGES Database, 5 locations, 4 different cemeteries Lydia Page – 2 married Pages, 1 maiden name Page (not the one you want but other info interesting) Thomas Page – 99 Individuals by this name, 4 with wife Mary, many b. England, many without dates. Joshua Page 1859 – 2 Individuals, probably not the ones you want but locations for all Keziah Page – no records on file- but I know I have seen that name somewhere William Page 1863 – 140 Williams in the database, 3 born 1863 . Wm. Henry Page who m. Eliz. Ferris Wm. Edward Page b. Abt. 1862, married Mary Ellen Wm. E. Page buried Mountsburg Methodist Cemetery Daniel Page - 1 record of a Daniel b.1865 Mar. Huldah Bander Record from Addington Co. ONT Frederick Page 1870 – 23 Frederick Page records, 3 Fred Page records many blank dates Edward Page – 32 records for this name. 1 b. 1876 England, but. Prospect Cemetery, Toronto Maurella Page 1879 – none shown but 1 Marilla Page record b. 1860 Ethel Page 1880 -1 b. 1876 Engl., bur. Prospect Cem. Toronto 1 Ethel b. 1893 Engl. 1 Ethel b. 1878 Engl. When you get this under control, please consider doing the DNA test to see if you match up with any of the big PAGE families known already. It won't tell you exactly HOW you are related - thats your job! It DOES tell you for sure that you ARE related to somebody else in that Family and that you have a common ancestor - chemically. It doesn't tell you why you all have brown hair or some genetic health problem - only that you are related to someone in a guaranteed scientific way. Am I right George? I just want to leave all this exotic terminology to the experts and say hi to the other relatives! Its mostly only the politics and historical perspective that separated you from all the others your line is related to anyway. Especially around the US Revolution and times of any wars. Did you see that little genealogy piece on 20-20 last week? There are a lot more questions than answers sometimes. The program showed a sweet jolly black lady and a jovial old white man who 'found' that they were related through the DNA testing. I agree completely with their humorous and happy attitude that it was nice to know they were related somehow. Who knows if they will figure it out someday. Many here in this PAGE group are working from the opposite end of the scale. They know a lot of their relatives but not the ones who went 'missing' somehow when they went west, or north or away to war etc. Our wonderful leader George W. has sorted through the math to match the results into groups who are fairly closely related. Perhaps there will be a common ancestor that both you and the another person in that family can identify. I have not even contacted all the people in my Group E yet. At the moment I am concentrating on all the related Page families who went through VT and NH in the 1700's just before they went to Canada - it is becoming much more interesting. Studying the politics and reasons for moving on is just as exciting too. Regards to all , Ruthanne Page [email protected]
