Reunion Survey Results

The results of our Reunion Survey are in. The consensus is to have a two day Reunion at an historical site, with a genealogy speaker, with most respondents willing to pay a little extra for a guest speaker. There is one conflict in the answers: The West coast was preferred by respondents over the East coast. However, the East coast has most of the historical locations, so it seems like the East coast might be the better choice. If anyone has suggestions as to an historical location in another part of the country other than the East coast, please email us.

In Memoriam

Judith Kimball passes away unexpectedly

Judith Kimball The KFA is saddened to bring our friends the news that our genealogist, Judy Kimball, passed away on Wednesday, July 25, at 83 years old. She and her husband, Lt. Col. George Henry Kimball Jr., were responsible for much of the genealogy research until he passed in 1997. Since then, Judy has continued on with help from KFA's genealogy committee. She will be missed by all of us, but especially by members who have been with KFA for many years. More...

Web Site Update

We've added a great link to our Kimball/Resources page: Bradford Burial Ground. This site, created by John Hardy, has all 700+ gravestones in the Old Bradford Cemetery at Bradford, MA (near Haverhill). There are many Kimballs buried in this cemetery, including Benjamin Kimball, Richard's son. A great site to document the births and deaths of our early ancestors.
