For several weeks now, we have a new feature on the Gen. Attachments CAN BE SENT. They appear at the bottom of the missive. So, with this...let us begin to share important information; documents; old Endicott family photos; correspondence, etc. etc.....etc. Who will be the first to send some good stuff???? Remember and I suggest, a great place to save this kind of information is in the Files Section. A bit easier to find at a later date.

For those descendants of Moses Endecott and others interested.
Recently, I finished teaching the first graduate student in the first graduate level program in the US. This program is geared towards a MA in Genealogical Studies. The course was Gen 502 - Advanced Land and Property Records Research.
My student, Kelly Summers, AG and who teaches genealogy at BYU in Provo UT was the first grad student. On her final, I gave her the estate deed of Moses Endecott. I have copies of the original if you dont have it. She was to apply the five treatments and use rubics in evaluating her work. The attached are the five treatments.

I believe that you will all enjoy Kelly's work. You will want to save it for your research records on Moses Endecott. His estate deed is full of great genealogy data as the names all of his immediate family and their spousces are included in the estate deed.
I maintain the academic property rights of this work thru Akamai University.

From My Home in Springfield, MO to Your Home, I wish you the BEST CHRISTMAS EVER.
I am sure enjoying this little 105 year old victorian on the Jordan Creek. The Victorian Christmas Open House went well. Some had more nog than egg. Me included. Photo attached.
Thought it would be nice to send to you my Christmas Greetings with the Danvers, MA Christmas Tree since it was there, that it all started on that first cold winter in 1628 with the arrival of Governor John Endecott (my 1oth generation paternal grandfather) in Naumkeag (Salem, MA) on September 6, 1628. It was a new beginning in a New England.
As you are underway in preparing your list of Christmas gifts for 2009, why not consider a Gift of Sharing Your Rich Endicott Heritage for members of your family?
For your convenience, attached is the Membership Application. You can just apply it for 2010. Also attached is "More About the EFA, Inc. Why You Should Join or Renew". It gives a detailed description of our various activities since our Founding Day of June 1, 2002.
After mostly being done with unpacking after the move, have found the following with the source citation at the end.
Govenors Buried at the Granary.
1. Samuel Turell Armstrong (1784-1850) Acting Governor 1835 ----- Loc Tomb 192
6th Mayor of Boston
2. Richard Bellingham (1591-192) Governor various times from 1641-54 ----- Loc Tomb D-68
3. James Bowdoin (1726-87) Governor 1785-87 ----- Loc B-T6
4. Christopher Gore (1758-1829) Governor 1809-10 ----- Loc Paine Family Tomb 123
5. William Dummer (1677-1761) Acted as Governor and Commander in Chief for 7 years when the governorship was vacant
Loc Tomb 167
6. John Endecott (1589-1665) Governor (1628-1629 not included in this article) 1644; 1651-53; 1655-1665 Loc Tomb 189 - unmarked grave
7. James Sullivan (1744-1808) Governor 1807 Loc Tomb 146
Source: Chauncey Wells and Suzanne Austin Wells. Preachers, Patriots & Plain Folks. Boston's Burying Ground Guide to King's Chapel, Granary and Central Cemeteries. (Oak Park, Illinois: Chauncey Park Press, 2004).112-113.
Also included in this article is the locator, with map that I have, of each tomb. So, they all should be relatively easy to locate.
I believe that further research is warranted to document any and all monumentation of each of these governors graves at the Old Granary Burying Ground on Tremont in Boston, MA
We know, from research to date, that the following have monumentation as we have photos of these:
1. Bowdoin
2. Sumner - not included in this article
It is very hard to determine just how many governors are actually and historically buried at the Granary. There are two conflicts of information from the caretakers (Boston Cemeteries Program) on how many governors. The gate sign has one number and one of the interpretative signs has yet another. Which is it?
Passing this on for further documentation on our efforts to recognize Gov. John Endecott with a sensitive historical marker on his UNMARKED gravesite at Tomb # 189
Kay, has the package been mailed to Boston yet? If so, would you send a final copy for my records? Thanks.
Jack, what is the strategy once Kay has mailed the package (Cover letter; Points Paper; Fact Sheet and the article: Governor John Endecotts Burial: Mystery Resolved)?

excellent articles on winthrop. i found john winthrop's city of women especially enlightening. what i got out of the bremer article was that though interest in winthrop and the puritans ebbs and flows in the popular mind, scholars such as perry miller, edmund morgan and samuel eliot morrison still found them worthy of study. the puritans had a checkered past. their sins were enormous, such that the word "puritanical" is almost a four letter word. still one needs to remember that not only were they a product of their times, but their times, and location were dangerous places to be. one admires them for their courage and to borrow a phrase from dean acheson, they were "present at the creation" of this noble experiment in self government.
i found the ulrich article the more fascinating of the two. the times that winthrop and his peers failed to do justice to their female comtemporaries shows the ignorance and superstiousness of puritan society, and those who led it. yet, the instances where they got it right, or at least part of it right gives evidence that winthrop really believed that puritan society should act as if it were a city upon a hill.
finally, the fact that these people lived in dangerous times highlights even more the courage of people like anne hutchinson and mary dwyer, and they deserve to still hold a place in america's historical memory.
thanks for sending both articles. makes me want to get a copy of perry miller's "the new england mind."
history doesn't repeat itself, but it rhymes.

Cheryl, This is Kay Kole Leary in Seattle. My computer lost all of my email addresses a while ago, so I don't have your direct address any more. (my apologies to the members for whom this is not intended) I have a question for you about the Endicott Pear Tree. There is new growth coming from the base of the little trunk. Is that growth I should encourage? Or is that from the root stock and not the Endicott tree? My mother's tree in California is doing the same thing. Thanks, Kay
An update has just been posted in the Files Section on the Endicott Pear Tree
Project.
We have had some recent orders, which spurred a phone call to Cheryl Taylor for
an update. The new updated version in the Files Section should bring everyone up
to date.
For those who may have an interest in ordering one or more of the Pear Trees, I
would encourage you to do so now. Cheryl plans to start more scion wood cuttings
and the supply will be limted. We have about 15 or so back orders from the first
round (Phase I) and those will receive priority.
Be a part of our rich Endicott Heritage by planting one of the Endicott Pear
Trees in your geographical area.

I am sending this to our Endicott Gen in hopes someone will have the information you are interested in.

Do you know of a tree that is exceptional in some way? Maybe one that has stood in your town square for generations, or one that's made the perfect backdrop for family photos through the years?
Now you can give that tree the recognition it deserves. In July, American Forests launched a Historic Tree Register, and they need your help to get the nation's most memorable trees into the spotlight.
You can nominate a tree that has historical significance, or a tree that's special to you personally. Trees that are selected for the register may be propagated and sold by American Forests, so that special tree can live on and bring joy to others.
Trees do so much for us. This is a cool opportunity to do something for them.
