Esom Leach, the father, as a native of Franklin County, Indiana. Esom came with his father, William Leach to Fairmount Township in the early day. William Leach stopped the first night in the new country at the McCormick Tavern. From this friendly cabin he went forth with a compass and blazed his way through the forest to the location where he afterwards made his home. On August 24, 1838, Esom was married to Miss Lucinda Corn, who was born in Kentucky, December 15, 1823. She was a daughter of Joseph and Nancy (Said) Corn, pioneers of Fairmount Township. Joseph Corn lived to be eighty-three years of age. His wife died at fifty-four. Bred to farming and stock raising, William J. Leach has never been permanently engaged in any other occupation. In 1865 he married Miss Sarah E. Havens, the daughter of Jonathan and Gabrille (Clark) Havens. Mrs. Leach, like her husband, was a native of this county, where she was born April 23, 1843. Four children were born to this union, namely: Lucinda A., Anna J., Charles E. and Martha C. The wife and mother died April 17, 1888.

| 1153 | From https://www.venividiscripto.com/nathaniel-scudder-revolutionary-war/ --------------------------------------------------- Nathaniel married Isabella Anderson, the only daughter of Colonel Kenneth Anderson, the year after his college graduation, and following a charming and whirlwind romance. The History of NJ Medicine records the courtship and romance as told a century later by Dr. Scudder’s granddaughter, Maria. Seems the beautiful Isabella, a member of an old Scottish family that came to the colonies during the Scottish troubles of 1715, came to church services on horseback, and was quickly seen and appreciated by a young college graduate, Nathaniel Scudder. She alighted from her horse and fastened him to a tree before walking up to and into the church. The daring young medical student went up to the horse, disarranged the equipment and entangled the bridle before he, too, went into church. When service was over, and young Isabella went back to her horse, only to be chagrined by the entanglement, Nathaniel suddenly appeared, quite dignified and graceful, and offered to come to her assistance. He righted all the reins he had entangled, then assisted the young lady into the saddle. He mentioned to her that since they were both traveling in the same direction, a distance of some four miles or more, he felt the need to travel with her and offer her protection. She acquiesced to his gallantry, Nathaniel mounted his own horse, and the two rode off together, the beginning of a courtship that culminated in a marriage in 1752 and ultimately the birth of three sons and two daughters. | Scudder, Col. Nathaniel M.D. (I1046)

| 1154 | From notes at Findagrave site: Benjamin Clarke, second child of Joseph Clarke (1), was born in Dedham, Massachusetts, February 9, 1644. He married; 1665, Dorcas Morse. He had a grant of land in Medfield, "near the way as you go to Nantasket." His house was on Main street, opposite Pound street. The original well is said to be still in use. His house was burned by the Indians in 1676, and he built again on the same spot. What is known as the Peak House in Medfield is an addition subsequently made to his second house in or about 1762. After the old part decayed and was torn down, the present structure was moved to its present location. Its unique shape has attracted much attention and is even believed to be one of the houses left from the burning in King Philip's war. Benjamin Clarke was a very prominent citizen. He was for seventeen years selectman of the town and two years deputy to the general court. He died in 1724 and his widow in 1725. | Clarke, Benjamin (I30)

| 1155 | From official Bio ----------------- In 1924, he met an American nurse, Catherine “Kay” Newbold Barstow of Philadelphia, who was vacationing in Bermuda. That fall he followed her to Manhattan, where he found employment more to his liking. He worked for a trust company while taking night courses at the American Institute of Banking. In 1926, he joined a brokerage firm, but he lost all his savings in the 1929 stock market crash and the firm went belly-up. Several lean years followed. In 1930, he founded a brokerage company with two other partners, but it failed to take off. It was a time, he said, in a Bermuda Sun interview, “when it became common place to see people committing suicide by jumping off skyscrapers because they had lost everything in the stock market crash.” Bank of Bermuda He had re-established his career at Standard Statistics Company, managing investment accounts, when the Bank of Bermuda came calling. In January 1934, he took up the number two post of secretary. He returned home with Catherine, whom he married on August 17, 1925. ----------------------------- | Tucker, Henry James (I1715)

| 1158 | From THE ENGLISH ANCESTRAL HOMES OF THE FOUNDERS OF CAMBRIDGE BY J. GARDNER BARTLETT Let us first consider the ten original founders of 1631, beginning with Gov. John Winthrop, who did not actually settle here although he erected a house, which he soon took down and removed to Boston. The Winthrop family probably derived their name from one of two parishes, Winthorpe, co. Nottingham, or Winthorpe, co. Lincoln. Gov. John Winthrop, lord of the manor of Groton in Suffolk, was born 12 Jan. 1587/8, son of Adam Winthrop, a lawyer of distinction, and grandson of another Adam Winthrop, the founder of the family fortunes, who was born in 1498, amassed wealth as a clothmaker in London, and in 1544 bought from the Crown the manor of Groton, where he settled. This manor had been seized by Henry VIII in 1539 from the Abbey of Bury St. Edmunds; thousands of mercantile families, like the Winthrops, became landed gentry about this time by purchasing from the Crown the vast estates sequestered all over England at the dissolution of the monasteries in 1539. In 1630 John Winthrop emigrated to New England as governor of the Massachusetts Colony, selling the manor of Groton that year. Groton Church is a small but fine stone structure, part of which was built in the thirteenth century. In the chancel is a memorial brass to the Adam Winthrop who bought the manor and died 9 Nov. 1562; and about forty years ago Gov. Winthrop's distinguished descendant, Hon. Robert C. Winthrop, installed in the chancel a large and beautiful stained glass window in memory of the governor. In the churchyard and against the corner formed by the outside walls of the chancel and south aisle may still be seen an altar tomb over the grave of Adam Winthrop, father of the governor. The Groton manor house occupied by the Winthrops was destroyed by fire soon after it was sold by the governor, but its location near a very ancient mulberry tree is still discernible. I recall with much pleasure the cordial hospitality I received on three visits to Groton from Rev. Mr. Wayman, who has been rector of the parish since 1872. Groton, Mass., and Groton, Conn., were named for the old English parish. | Winthrop, Gov. John (I1356)

| 1163 | From Wikipedia: ------------- Scudder was born in Monmouth Court House, Province of New Jersey, which later became Freehold Borough, New Jersey. He attended the College Of New Jersey (now Princeton University) and graduated in 1751. He then studied medicine before setting up a practice in Monmouth County, New Jersey. Dr. Scudder was active in civic and militia affairs. When the revolution split the colonies, he supported the rebel cause. He was a member of the county's committee of safety and represented it in the Provincial Congress held in 1774. That same year he was named lieutenant colonel in the county's first regiment of militia. In 1776 he was elected to a one-year term as Monmouth County's first member of the newly constituted New Jersey Legislative Council, and in 1780 he was elected to the New Jersey General Assembly.[2] In 1777, Scudder became the colonel of his militia regiment and was sent as a delegate to the Continental Congress. During the summer of 1778, he was particularly busy and abandoned his medical practice. He split his time between the Congress and militia activities. He led his regiment in the Battle of Monmouth in June. He wrote a series of impassioned letters to local and state leaders urging the adoption of the Articles of Confederation, and when New Jersey's legislature approved them in November, he endorsed them for the state at the Congress. Scudder continued both forms of service for several years. On October 17, 1781, he led a part of his regiment to offer resistance to a British Army foraging party and was killed in a skirmish near Shrewsbury, New Jersey. He is buried in the Tennent Church Graveyard in Manalapan Township. Dr. Scudder was the only member of the Continental Congress to die in battle during the Revolutionary War and the last colonel to die in battle. | Scudder, Col. Nathaniel M.D. (I1046)

| 1195 | He was confirmed in 1688 in Altengronau. He emgirated to America i n 1710. The records of Altengronau were searched from the earliest r ecords to 1800. The family of Georg Killmer is last mentioned is not listed in Germany after Jun 1709. Proof that it is the right famil y besides the names and dates fitting perfectly comes from the New York subsisterary rolls. From 4 August 1710-25March 1712 the family is listed in these rolls as 4 people over the age of 10, 3 children under the age of 10. The next roll dated 24 Jun 1712 the family is listed as 6 over 10, 1 under ten. In other words, two of the children in the family turned ten years old between March and June of 1712. This fits exactly to be the twin sons Simon and Michael whose birthday to turn 10 was 18 Jun. This exact connection and all other connections show this is the same family. Some concern may be made by Kilmer descendants that the family name was Johann Georg Killmer or Georg Kilmer in Germany rather than the earlier supposed Johannes Jurrian Kuhlmann. The latter name is the Dutch equivallent to the German Johann Georg. Kuhlmann is also a Dutch confusion. The name in Germany was actually Georg Killmer and thus the family name was not changed to Kilmer from Kuhlmann as earlier supposed, but was Killmer originally in Germany. It is interesting that the alternate spellings found in the Altengronau Parish are Kulmer in the earliest records, Killner, and Kilmer, all variations al so found in New York records.

| 1196 | He was married October 26, 1862, to Miss Sarah E. Haven, a lady whose natural endowment of head and heart made her universally loved and respected. Her death, on April 17, 1888, occasioned acute sorrow in the entire neighborhood as well as in the home circle. She was the mother of two sons and four daughters, two of whom preceded her to the spirit land. Those surviving her as follows: Lucinda, who married John Scott, a farmer of Jefferson township, by whom she had four children; Anna, wife of Chalmer Kerr, an agriculturist of Delaware county, and the mother of one child; Charles E., who is an agriculturist and grain dealer of Fowlerton, is married to Miss Minnie Payne and has two children; and Martha C., who was educated in the common schools and received a musical education. She lives at home. On March 16, 1890, Mr. Leach led to the alter Miss Jennie Wood, whose kindly nature and womanly qualities have made her an ideal wife and mother. She is a daughter of John and Mary (Smith) Wood and was born in Ripley county, this state, January 12, 1851, but during her infancy her parents moved to Allen county, thence to Bluffton, where she was educated and lived for twenty-two years. She is a devout member of the Harmony Baptist church, as are her husband and daughter Martha. Mr. Leach worked zealously for the erection of the pretty structure in which they now worship, and has been foremost in all movements which are conducive to public good. He stands high in the community and will leave to his children a heritage far preferable to lands and gold-- a good name. He is a Democrat and cast his first vote for George B.
