Notes |
- Came to New England on the 2nd Mayflower. The Master of this Mayflower was the famous Capt William Pierce. The ship left Gravesend, London, England March 1629 and arrived at Plymouth, May 15, 1629. There were approximately 35 passengers including Richard Ingersall, his wife Anne and children George, Joanna, John, Sarah and Alice. Kept the ferry at North River.
Seven Hundred Ancestors: An inventory of the property was taken on Oct. 4, 1644. Some of the items listed were as follows: 7 cows, 34 Lbs; two young steers, 4 lbs.; bull, 7 lbs.; pair of oxen, 14 lbs.; two horses and mare and young colt, 25 lbs.; a farm of 80 acres, 7 lbs. A moose skin suit was another item.
Among Richard Ingersoll's papers was found this recipe: "A metson to make a man's hear groe when he is bald: Take some fier flies and some Redd worms and sum black snayles and sum hune bees and drie them and ppund them to powder and mixt them in milk or water".
It is claimed that a certain house in Salem was built by Richard Ingersoll and was the original of the romance by Hawthorne-"House of the Seven Gables".
Several years after the widow, Ann, married John Knight, Sr. of Newbury litigation arose over the farm her husband had willed her and in the trial her son in law gave the following testimony: "I Richard Pettingell, aged about 45 years doe testify that this farm of land that is now in contriversy was reserved by the widow Inkersoll to her self before her marriage to John Knight, Sr. and she verbally gave this land to John Inkersoll, her son. I, Richard Pettingell doe farder testify that about the year 52 the said John Knight came home too Newbury and tould his wife that hee had promised Mr. Pain sum timber at frost fish river; she was then troubled at it and said what have you to doe to sell my timber wher upon the said John Knight promised her twenty shillings, and the said John Knight, Sr. did then own that he had no right in that land". Essex Court Files XIV 28-32. John Knight then joined with his wife in conveying the farm to her sons John and Nathaniel "Ingerson".
