I am related to Stephen Morse and his wife, Abigail Ingalls. Anthony Morse (1606 - 1686) of Salisbury, Massachusetts is my 9th great grandfather and my common ancestor with Stephen Morse. Edmund Ingalls (1586 - 1648) of Lynn, Massachusetts is my 9th great grandfather, and my common ancestor with Abigail Ingalls. I descend from THREE of Edmund Ingalls's nine children! (Elizabeth (1619 - 1676), Robert (1621 - 1698), Samuel (1632 - 1717) ). Edmund Ingalls is also the ancestor of the famous children's book author, Laura Ingalls Wilder.

Edmund Ingalls is the founder of Lynn, MA, isn't he?
ReplyDeleteHe was one of the founders, an early settler at Saugus (now Lynn)
DeleteYour last sentence answers my question. The name Ingalls seems rare, and Laura Ingalls Wilder is the only other time I've seen it.
ReplyDeleteI collect data on all Ingalls in the USA and Canada as I have time. Also have a copy of Burleigh's 1903 book on the Ingalls. I think I recall that in one census, Ingalls were about 0.6 percent of the US population. Could be wrong about that. Contact me if you need data on your Ingalls ancestry.
