Introduction
| My German ancestors came from various parts of Northern Germany: Lippe-Detmold, Hannover (Prussia) and Pomerania, now part of Mecklenburg/Vorpommern. All of my German great-grandparents emigrated between 1861 and the mid 1880s. My English forebears go back to the well researched Stephen Gates, who arrived in Hingham, MA in 1638. There is new data on his parents and origin in England. Information has been added on the Pollard line, which now connects with Thomas Pollard. He settled in Billerica, MA about 1690. A link has also been established between the Pollards and Hamlins. Hannibal Hamlin was the first Vice President of the US under Abraham Lincoln. I have included some very old English ancestry (LDS Ancestral Files), some of which is suspect due to obvious temporal inconsistencies. Use the Leavitt and Gilman ancestry of Moses Howe, and the Wood(s) ancestry of Sarah Woods with caution. None of it has been double checked. |
