It's been a long time since I've looked at that Webb family as I did when I was trying to sort out mine from others. My recollection is that the Webb family that was in Weymouth in the early 1700s moved to Wyndham, CT by the end of the 1700s. It was even confusing to me because a majority of my Webb family (though not the part that I am a descendant from) moved to Windham, ME about the same time. Actually I may have the spellings reversed. I made an assumption and we all know how bad that is when we're trying to figure out genealogy - that the CT Webb family from Weymouth in the 1700s might be the same one that we're speaking about. Once I discovered that that family was not part of our Webb family I didn't do further work on them. I do know that the Webb family (the wrong one for us) was supposedly related to the Bass family according to stuff that I found in my parents collection of genealogy information after their death. I also remember hearing from my parents that we were related to the White baby born on the Mayflower. That also turned out to be the "other" Webb family in Weymouth during the 1700s. Have I further muddied the waters? I haven't really done any active work on my information for over 10 years but have kept in contact on this list as well as the Ward list for my father's mother's side of my ancestors. My Webbs came from Weymouth to California in the period from 1851 to 1870 with other members of the family remaining in Weymouth until the 1930s when the last relative died. By the way, does anybody know the reason for Webb Park in the Weymouth area being named that. And WHICH WEBB family it is named for? I haven't been able to find any history about it's name.

I got sidetracked. I should have said that I believe that the "other Webb" family in Weymouth is the family that ended up in Connecticut and thus is the family with the Mary Bass connection. Ian Webb Twhrose@aol.com Sent: Tuesday, January 16, 2007 7:42 AM To: webb@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [WEBB] Samuel B. Webb in Connecticut Is Christopher Webb, who married Mary Bass, Mayflower descendent in this line. I have been looking for more on the Webb just this weekend. Thanks, Jan O'Brien

My recollection is that he is a member of the "other Weymouth" Webb family circa 1700. My parents died 20 years ago still thinking that our Weymouth Webb family included the Webb line where Christopher married Mary Bass. It turned out when I did a fair amount of library work 10 or 15 years ago that there were at least 2 distinct Webb families in Weymouth at that time. At least I never found a connection between them. The prevalence of the same names with children born within a short time of each other made separating them quite difficult and without my computer database I don't know how I would have managed. A great source for information on the two Webb families that were in Weymouth, MA circa 1700 is: "Genealogies of Early Families of Weymouth, Mass." Chamberlain, 1984, Sutro F74 W68 C53 It's been many years since I've done active "in library" work but my recollection is that it was a two volume book from the early 1900s and this is a reprint of the books. The "Sutro" reference is it's cataloging at the California State Genealogy Sutro Library in San Francisco. I was able to check out the book for a week or two when I used it at that time. I would assume it's available for inter library load if you check a good local library they likely can either locate a copy of it or maybe arrange something. The fact that they let me check it out would lead me to believe that they have a second copy of it somewhere or maybe it's on microfilm in case it gets damaged. I found numerous multi-great grandparents and names that I would never have found elsewhere without this volume. I just did a Google Search....sure a lot there compared to when I was actively searching 10 or 15 years ago! I'm not surprised: Genealogies of the Early Families of Weymouth, Mass., George Walter Chamberlain, Genealogical Publishing Co, Baltimore, 1984, Reprint of 1923. Good luck. I'd sure like to find a connection between the two Webb families.

Oh, you Southern Webbs! There is a lot of Webb history in New England; we've just never successfully connected it with the Southern Webbs where most of the family research is being done. But if you are ever in Connecticut or Vermont it is worth a visit. General Samuel Blatchley Webb lived in Wethersfield, CT (just outside Hartford). His house there is maintained as an historic site because: he was an aide to General Washington and so was the host in Wethersfield, in that house, to a meeting between Washington and General Lafayette at which the plan was developed for the southern campaign of the Revolution and eventual victory. It is a fascinating place to tour - and it has a good library attached with, among other things, a good genealogy book done in the 1800s on the Connecticut Webbs, funded, I think, by the Webb who married Cornelius Vanderbilt's daughter and built the Webb estate on the shores of Lake Champlain in Sherburne, Vermont, also open as a fascinating museum of American crafts.. Try as I might, I couldn't get the Wethersfield Webb House staff to copy it for me - but it is there for research on the whole Richard Webb line. Last year for Christmas my sons gave me a copy of Samuel Blatchley Webb's collected correspondence. One of the treasures: an anguished letter from Washington after Webb had been captured by the British, explaining that Washington would negotiate the release of his officers only in the order in which they had been captured and that he could not, for honor's sake, make an exception for his friend. -----Original Message----- From: webb-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:webb-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of Ian Sent: Monday, January 15, 2007 11:54 PM To: webb@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [WEBB] My answer- in part He seems to be quite well known.

WEBB, Samuel Blatchley, soldier, was born in Wethersfield, Conn., Dec. 15, 1753; descendant of Richard Webb, a native of Dorsetshire, England, who came to Cambridge, Mass., in 1626; was a freeman in Boston, Mass., in 1632, and a companion of the Rev. Thomas Hooker in Hartford, Conn., in 1635. His father having died when he was quite young, Samuel B. Webb became private secretary to his stepfather, Silas Deane. The above was found - http://members.tripod.com/~ntgen/bw/part_deane.html#webb

Has anyone found descendants of the Richard Webb of Hartford CT? Did any of them move to Stamford? It seems he came from Newtown ( now Cambridge, MA ) with Rev. Thomas Hooker and was listed as one of Hartfords first settlers. See ( http://www.colonialwarsct.org/1636.htm ) There was a Richard Webb mentioned arriving (with wife Elizabeth) on with The Winthrop Fleet 1630 (as in Govenor Winthrop of Massachusetts ). Listed as a "Freeman" in Cambridge in 1632 ( same Richard? ) Biography of John Adams mentions a cousin Richard Webb going to Harvard. It seems there were too many Richard Webbs in CT. Can the DNA testing prove anything?

He seems to be quite well known. I remember finding several mentions and paragraphs about him several years ago when I was searching for New England Samuel Webbs to find my correct Samuel Webb ancestors. I'm sure you could find a reference in documents during that era to him. Sure were a lot of Samuel Webbs.

Hello Listers, One of my "brick walls" is that no one in our family has ever had contact with any descendants of the brothers of our Lazarus & Eli Webb (Northumberland Co. VA> Warren Co. KY> Franklin Co. IL.) The two brothers in question are William WEBB born 17 December 1776 in Northumberland Co. Va. This is recorded in the St. Stephens Parish Register of Northumberland Co. VA. Charles WEBB born ca. 1780 in Northumberland Co. VA. exact date of birth unknown. They are the sons of Lazarus WEBB, sr. and his wife Leannah (WEBB). I have seen some transcripts of the 1782 tax list for Northumberland Co. that does indicate that all of the children of this family were still living. The 1894 biography for Lazarus and Eli gives us the names of William and Charles. The family relocated from Northumberland Co. to Charlotte Co. VA about 1785. During this time frame the children would have become of age and would have been starting out on their own. One sister, Elizabeth, we believe may have married in Scott Co. VA. At least that is the reference her descendants have. One of her descendants belive that one of Elizabeth's daughters returned to Scott Co. and several of her children were born there. Did the brothers also live in Scott Co.? In searching online sites I haven't found any listings or quarries that seem to apply to either of these men. Is there anyone on the list who has a WEBB ancestor from the VA. TN. KY. area by the name of William or Charles that they haven't made a connection? Dian

Yes he gave me a bit more info to go on but I'm going to have to make a trip to VA to look some of these things up. It mostly confirms what I was thinking but no actually proof on paper. I told my husband I was going to map out a trip to each of these different places that they lived because I want to see them and then go to the Library and Courthouse in certain counties to try to tie the rest together. Cemeteries would be something I would like to get a line on. But there are not to many listed. Well, there are several but not the ones I need.

Folks, I just ran across a message that was left on the board Sat.Sept.7th,2002. This message was left by Jay Webb. I am now wondering if the John Webb he mentions that married Rachel Giles,might be my John. Do any of you know the names of the children born to John &Rachel? Since some of you might not have seen the message that Jay left here back in 2002,I'm going to copy and paste it here again. The info he provided lists several John Webb's and if mine isn't the one who married Rachel,then I suspect that he might be one of the others. I need to point out that my John was once thought to be a grandson to John and Mary Boone Webb,but we now know that this isn't the case. That John appears to be listed among these men,but as I mentioned before,there are others listed within Jay's message. Please let me know if any of you connect to these Webb's.

Let me check further, but I believe that his wife Lucretia TAYLOR, connects to my lines through her sisters, who both m. HUNTS.
