RACHEL OLMSTEAD was born about 1603, of Colchester, Essex, England, to John Olmstead (1567-before 1677) and Unknown. She married Thomas Reade about 1618 of Essex, England. Rachel Olmstead died 26 September 1677, in Colchester, Essex, England, age 74.

KATHERINA EDWARDS (1627-1677) THOMAS REED, was christened 19 October 1627, St. Nicholas, Colchester, Essex, England. His parents were Thomas Reade (1698-1659) and Rachel Olmstead (1598-1677) as evidenced by his father’s will: “In the name of God, Amen. I Thomas Read of Colchester, in the County of Essex, carpenter…make and ordaine this my last Will and Testament… FIRST. I give the house in which I now live in the parish of Alsaints in Colchester to Thomas Read, my sonne, now living in new England in America. To hold to him and the heirs of his body forever if he lives [and] comes over unto England to enjoye itt. And in case he shll not bee living to come over to enjoye it then my will and mynd is that the same shall bee sold by my Executors to the best advantage that may bee. And the moneyes thereof arising to be cairfully conveyed to him to be frugally layed out there in new England to purchase land or an Annuity for him and his wife for life … More I give to my said sone, Thomas Read the somme of seaventy pounds to be paid him by my Executors within twelve months after my decease…” He is a brother to Mary Reed (1620-1691) also our ancestor. She was married to Daniel Bacon. He married (1) *Katherina Edwards, about 1647, of Colchester, England; (2) Widow Mary Thompson Wood on, 7 March 1677, in Sudbury, Massachusetts, (3) Widow Arabella Thong on 29 Dec 1689, Sudbury, Massachusetts. He arrived in Salem, Massachusetts about 1647. Thomas Read was not in this country prior to 1640 as the Register of Admissions to the Royal Grammar School of Colchester records: “Thomas Reade, eldest son of Thomas Reade Carpenter Born in St. Nicholas, Colchester, in his 12th year. Admitted March 1639-0.” It is certain that Thomas Read was in Sudbury, Massachusetts, by 1654. The details regarding some land in Lanham, which he acquired from his kinsman Reverent Edmund Browne, suggest that he married in England and came over during the years between 1650 and 1653. Lanham was a hamlet in Sudbury on the west side of the river. Just how Thomas was connected with Rev. Browne is not shown, but it is thought that he was a nephew or nephew-in-law. In Middlesex County Deed 12:6 “Tomas Read of Sudbury…with ye free & voluntary consent of Katherine his wife…confirm unto Said Mathew Biggs…one third part of farm wch ye said Thomas Read bought of Edmund Brown Pastor of ye Church of Christ in Sudbury…” This deed was dated 28 Sep 1661. That Katherine joined in the deed and did not merely release her dower may mean that she had an interest. This could because the Reads received the land from her family. Thomas returned to England as he was there in January 1666-7 to receive his share of his father’s estate. From a bill by his brother “Isaac Reade of Wrabness County, Essex, Clerk” it appears Thomas was not satisfied with his share. The will mentioned that the residue of the estate should go to “my children, Thomas Read, Isaac Read, and Rachel Read to be equally shared and parted amongst them.” Isaac claims, however, that “he left out of love to complainant (i.e. Isaac) and his children all the residue of his estate to complainant and his heirs.” Thomas was mentioned in “An Accompt of Losse Susteined by Several Inhabitants of ye towne of Sudbury by ye Indian Enemy ye 21th April 1676.” Of a total loss of 2707 pounds. Thomas Read, who was last on the list, had a loss of 3 pounds. It is not stated what the lost entailed. A twon recorded 26 March 1677 order Peter King, Thomas Read, Sr., John Goodenow, John Smith, and Joseph Freeman to have liberty granted them to build a sawmill upon Hop Brook above Mr. Peter Noyes’ mill. In Thomas’ will, dated 9 September 1701 and witnessed by James Sherman, Samuel How, and Edmund Bowker, are mentioned “beloved wife Arabella Read,” “only Son Thomas Read,” “youngest son of my above-named Thomas,” and “cousin John Bacon of Watertown.” Given the times, Arabells left an amazing will dated 26 April 1716. She gave freedom to Frank, her negro main servant. What’s more, she gave the servant all of her moveable estable and made her sole executrix. (Note: It is probable that Thomas Read could be uncle to John Goodrich as his wife Elizabeth and Read’s wife, Katharine were sisters. It is very probably that this was the case and that it was the Read’s who took charge of the young Goodrich children when Elizabeth died.) Thomas Reade died 13 September 1701, in Sudbury, Massachusetts, at about age 74. Immigrant to New England. Thomas Read was not in this country prior to 1640 as the Register of Admissions to the Royal Grammar School of Colchester records: “Thomas Reade, eldest son of Thomas Reade Carpenter born in St. Nicholas, Colchester, in his 12th year. Admitted March 1639-0.” There was a Thomas Read listed 24 Oct 1644, as an apprentice to Thomas King of Watertown, with two years unexpired time. This could be Thomas Read the ancestor but was more probably an older man as apprenticeships rarely expired before the apprentice reached the age of twenty-one. A more detailed search of the records might provide proof one way or the other. It is certain however that Thomas Read was in Sudbury, Massachusetts, by 1654. How much sooner he came is uncertain. (His residence in Sudbury was from 1654-1701.) The details regarding some land in Lanham, which he acquired from his kinsman Reverend Edmund Browne, suggest that he married in England and came over during the years between 1650 and 1653. Lanham was a hamlet in Sudbury on the west side of the river. Just how Thomas was connected with Rev. Browne is not shown, but it is thought that he was a nephew or nephew-in-law. In Middlesex County Deed No. 12:6 “Tomas Read of Sudbury … with ye free & voluntary consent of Katherine his wife … confirm unto Said Mathew Gibbs … one third part of farm wch ye said Thomas Read bought of Edmund Brown Pastor of ye Church of Christ in Sudbury …” This deed was dated 28 Sep 1661. That Katherine joined in the deed and did not merely release her dower may mean that she had an interest. This could because the Reads received the land from her family. The following record shows a family connection between Thomas Read and Reverend Browne and also shows the approximate timing of the purchase. “The Deposition of peter King aged about seventy-two years do testify that I heard Mr. Edmund Browne, Pastor of the church of Sudbury … Several times Say that he had sold his Land at Lanham unto his cousin Thomas Read of Sudbury and had received money in old England Unto the said Browns satisfaction. Also Jonathan Stanap, aged about Sixty Six years living with the abovesaid Mr. Edmund Browne about the same time as he sold his Land in Lannam to Thomas Read of Sudbury do testify the same as Mr Peter King abovesd hath done and Said Thomas Read has been in possession of said Land for upwards of forty years – Sworn March 29, 1699.” “Capt Samuel How testifieth that Mr Edmund Brown Pastor of the Church of Sudbury did Say to Capt Edmund Goodenow and my Selfe That the above named Thomas Read’s father had paid him in England for his lands at Lannum and a pair of oxen fifty pounds which Said Brown Spake to us upward of thirty years Since…” Sworn March 29, 1699. The word cousin is very loosely applied in the old records. It is used not only in its present sense, but also as niece, nephew, or kinsman and has even been used to mean grandchild. This sale was about the time of Thomas Read’s marriage, as the land had been his for over forty years in 1699. As the money was paid in England, it seems some arrangement of dowry or allowance to either Thomas or Katherine may be a possibility. Thomas returned to England as he was there in January 1666-7 to receive his share of his father’s estate. From a bill by his brother “Isaac Reade of Wrabness County, Essex, Clerk” it appears Thomas was not satisfied with his share. The will mentioned that the residue of the estate should go to “my children, Thomas Read, Isaac Read, and Rachel Read to be equally shared and parted amongst them.” Isaac claims, however, that “he left out of love to complainant (i.e. Isaac) and his children all the residue of his estate to complainant and his heirs.” Thomas was mentioned in “An Accompt of Losse Susteined by Severall Inhaitants of ye towne of Sudbury by ye Indian Enemy ye 21th Aprill 1676.” Of a total loss of 2707 pounds, Thomas Read, who was last on the list, had a loss of three pounds. It is not stated what the loss entailed. Sudbury records recorded, 26 March 1677, order Peter King, Thomas Read, Sr., John Goodenow, John Smith, and Joseph Freeman to have liberty granted them to build a sawmill upon Hop Brook above Mr. Peter Noyes’ mill. The History of Sudbury records: Thomas Read was a prominent citizen of Sudbury. He was early appointed one of the tything-men, and in 1677 he was one of the persons to whom the town gave leave to build a saw mill upon Hop Brook. His place at Lanham was for many years in the family, and his descendants have been widely scattered and useful citizens. Says the historian of Rutland of the descendants of the Sudbury Read’s, who settled there. “This family of Reads have been useful and industrious in habitants of Rutland for one hundred twenty years.” Asahel Read was one of the two Sudbury soldiers who were killed at the battle of Concord and Lexington. For the space of about two centuries the name Read is connected with the annals of Sudbury. In Thomas’ will, dated 9 September 1701 and witnessed by James Sherman, Samuel How, and Edmund Bowker, are mentioned “beloved wife Arabella Read,” “only Son Thomas Read,” “youngest son of my above-named Thomas,” and “cousin John Bacon of Watertown.” Given the times, Arabells left an amazing will dated 26 April 1716. She gave freedom to Frank, her negro maid servant. What’s more, she gave the servant all of her moveable estate and made her sole executrix. (Note: It is probable that Thomas Read could be uncle to John Goodrich as his wife Elizabeth and Read’s wife, Katharine were sisters. It is very probable that this was the case and that it was the Reads who took charge of the young Goodrich children when Elizabeth died.) The Immigrant Born: Oct 19, 1627 in Colchester, Essex Co, England. Immigration: Sometime before 1654, possibly single, or with first wife, Katherine. Wives: 1) Katherine, probable mother of Thomas, Jr, md sometime before 1654. Torrey shows first born 1651. Katherine died September 26, (1677 per Roman, 1667 per Torrey), in Sudbury, Middlesex Co, Mass. If she were born at the same time as Thomas, she would have been 40 or 50. Strangely, they only had one child that is known: Thomas Read, Jr. Torrey shows a note that she was possibly/probably the sister of Elizabeth, the wife of John Goodrich, the father of her daughter-in-law, Mary Goodrich. (This would help explain why a Wethersfield, Conn girl married a Sudbury, Mass boy.) 2) Mary [Thompson?], md Mar 7, 1677/8, in probably Sudbury, Mass, widow of Michael Wood. They had no children that I am aware of. She died before 1689. Torrey shows unknown under her Read entry, "Thompson?" under Michael Wood entry. 3) Arabella (___) Thong/Tong/Tongue, a widow of an unknown Thong, md 12/29/1689. She survived Thomas and died April 29, 1717 in probably Sudbury, Mass. No issue. Roman, Ancestry of Hattie Whitney," says: "Given the times, Arabella left an amazing will dated April 20, 1716. She gave freedom to Frank, her negro maid servant. What's more, she gave the servant all of her moveable estate and made her sole executrix." Residence: Sudbury, Mass in 1654 until his death in 1701. Died: 09/13/1701, Sudbury, Mass Estate: In Thomas' will, dated September 9, 1701 and witnessed by James Sherman, Samuel How, and Edmund Bowker, are mentioned "beloved wife Arabella Read", "only Son Thomas Read", "youngest son of my above-named Thomas", and "cousin John Bacon of Watertown". The History of Sudbury says: "Thomas Read was a prominent citizen of Sudbury. He was early appointed one of the tything-men, and in 1677 he was one of the persons to whom the town gave leave to build a saw mill upon Hop Brook. His place at Lanham was for many years in the family, and his descendants have been widely scattered and useful citizens. Says the historian of Rutland of the descendants of the Sudbury Reads, who settled there: "This family of Reads have been useful and industrious in habitants of Rutland for one hundred twenty years". Asahel Read was one of the two Sudbury soldiers who were killed at the Battle of Concord and Lexington. For the space of about two centuries the name Read is connected with the annals of Sudbury. One of the descendants of Nathaniel Read who settled in Warren is a Alanson read Jr., a well known citizen of Chicago and one of the proprietors of Read's "Temple of Music. "He has been lately engaged in preparing a history of the Read family." KATHERINA EDWARDS was born about 1627, of Colchester, Essex, England, to Thomas Edwards (1589-1683) and Sarah Unknown (1601-.) Katherine married Thomas Read about 1647 in England. Katherina Edwards died, 26 September 1677, Sudbury, Middlesex, Massachusetts, at about age 48. Children of Thomas Reed and Katherina Edwards: 1.Thomas Reade (Reed) born 15 December 1650, of Sudbury, Middlesex, England, to Thomas Reade (1627-1701) and Katherina Edwards (1627-1677.) Married Mary Goodrich 30 May 1677, Sudbury Middlesex, England. He was an immigrant to New England. Thomas Reade died about 1733, probably at Oxford, Worcester, Massachusetts, at about age 80. 2.Matthew Read, 1658-. 3.Benjamin Read, 1660-. 4.Edmond Read, 1662-. + 10. THOMAS REED (1650-1701) MARY GOODRICH (1650-1707) \\ (See “Goodrich”) THOMAS READE (REED) was born 15 December 1650, Sudbury, Middlesex, England, to Thomas Reade (1627-1701) and Katherine Edwards (1627-1677.) He married Mary Goodrich, 30 May 1677, in Sudbury, Middlesex, Massachusetts. Thomas Reed died about 1701, of Sudbury, Massachusetts, age 48. Thomas Reade, Jr. was a freeman on 2 October 1678, in Sudbury, Massachusetts. Little can be found on this Thomas Read. In 1689 his father for “the natural affection” which he bore to his “Loving and only Son Thomas Read Junr” of Sudbury, gave him several pieces of land and meadow in Sudbury, one of which he had bought from Ensign Thomas Noyes and Peter Noyes and one which his wife Katherine had bought from the town of Sudbury. On 22 May 1711, Thomas gave to his “beloved friend and Cousin; i.e., his son’s father-in-law] Samuel Bigelow living…in…Marlborough” land in Glastonbury, CT, given to him by his father-in-law, John Goodrich. On 31 January 1723-4 Thomas Read, Sr., of Sudbury, sold to his son Joseph, for 200 pounds, the homestead upon which he, Thomas Sr., and his wife Mary then dwelt. 30 Nov 1726 Thomas Read Sr. and his son Joseph Read, for 400 pounds, sold to Thomas Sanderson the land where he and the said Joseph were then living. Sarah, the wife of Joseph, released her dower. Mary died 21 February 1707, Sudbury, and it is evident that Thomas made his home with his youngest son, Joseph. The later went to Leicester, where he had two children born in 1727 and 1729, then went to Oxford and a child was born there in 1731. Joseph died that December. Presumably Thomas went with Joseph to both these places, and the tradition is that he died in Oxford about 1733, although his death does not appear on the published Oxford records. Oxford records, however, don’t include gravestone records as many towns do. A trip to the early Oxford burying ground may help provide the information. No will or administration of his estate appears in the Worcester probate Index, but there may be a settlement of his estate in the deeds of that county. Thomas Reade died about 1733, probably at Oxford, Worcester, Massachusetts, at about age 80. MARY GOODRICH was born 15 December 1650, in Wethersfield, Hartford, Connecticut, to John Goodrich (1622-1680) and Elizabeth Edwards (1622-1670). She married Thomas Reade, 30 May 1677, in Sudbury Middlesex, Massachusetts. (Her aunt was probably Katherine Unknown Reed [1629-1677.]) Mary Goodrich passed away 21 February 1707, in Sudbury, Middlesex, Massachusetts, at age 57. Goodrich. One wonders how Thomas' son, born and raised in Sudbury, Mass, came to marry a girl from Wethersfield, Conn. The answer appears to lie in some kind of relationship, with the Goodrich family, back in England. The Goodrich's are from St. Bury Edmunds, England, near where the Reads were from. Torrey mentions that Katherine, wife of Thomas Read, and mother of Thomas Read, Jr., was possibly/probably a sister of Elizabeth, wife of immigrant John Goodrich, father of Mary Goodrich who married Thomas Read, Jr. This would make Thomas, Jr and Mary first cousins, a not uncommon scenario in New England. Children of Thomas Reade and Mary Goodrich: 1.Thomas Reed was born 22 March 1677, in Sudbury, Middlesex, Massachusetts, to Thomas Reade (Reed) (1653-1733) and Mary Goodrich (1650-1707.)

He married (1) Mrs. Mary Bigelow Bruce, 30 Dec 1701; (2) *Abigail Bacon, 1 July 1708, in Sudbury, Massachusetts. Thomas Reed received a good deal of his grandfather’s estate at the time of the latter’s death. This fact may have been what kept him in Sudbury when his father and brother moved to Leicester. Thomas’ first wife was Mary Bigelow, daughter of Samuel and Mary (Flagg) Bigelow. She was the widow of David Bruce, son of Thomas Bruce. Thomas Reed sold land to Joseph Parmenter on 15 June 1719. His wife Abigail released her dower [a widow's share for life of her husband's estate]. Thomas and Abigail mortgaged their farm of twenty-five acres on 2 Sep 1740.

He lived in Sudbury, Mass., where all of his twelve children were born, and in his old age was living at Holliston, Mass., where his will was probated 6 September, 1781. None of Capt. Timothy's three sons became mariners -- Samuel was a baby when his father was lost at sea, and he was brought up by his stepfather, Thomas Smith. Samuel is known by his descendants as the father of the Revolutionary Soldier boys. His four boys; Ebenezer, Samuel, Daniel, and John saw much service in this War. Sudbury is only about seven miles south of Concord and Lexington -- the hot spot of the war. His son Samuel played a very important part in the Battle of Bunker Hill. 1781.

The parish registers of Runwell begin in the year 1558 but there are no Church entries until 1573 when a child of Francis was baptised. From this fact and the reference in his will to lands in the parish of Takeley, in northern Essex county, it seems probable that the Churches were not natives of Runwell but came there from Takeley or its neighborhood. John Church was married twice, but the name of his first wife and mother of his children is unknown.

He married Agnes Josselyn about 1518, of Great Canfield, Essex, England. Offices held: Sevant of 15th Earl of Oxford, member, council of 16th Earl by 1542, auditor to 16th Earl in 1542; auditor, ct. augmentations Cheshire, Debys., Lincs, and Notts. 12 May 1536-4 May 1544, Kent, Surr., Suss. In 1552-3; j.p Essex 1554-death. There can be little doubt that the John Wiseman who sat in the third and fourth Marian Parliaments was the augmentations official of that name. As one of the auditors of that court from its establishment in 1536 until its dissolution in 1554 Wiseman had served for eight years under Sir Richard Rich and after an interval, for a further five under Sir Richard Sackville, The influence wielded by these two ex-chancellors of the court at Maldon and East Grinstead respectively points to the former subordinate as the Member for those borough in turn. At East Grinstead Wiseman probably had as his fellow-Member another auditor of the augmentations in William Barnes I. Sir John Wiseman was a member of Parliament during the reign of Queen Mary, daughter of Henry VIII. Wiseman leased the manor of Great Canfield in February 1546 and in the following year bought the park. Wiseman was on his deathbed when he made his will on 12 August 1558, for it was proved 13 days later. The will distributed his lands between his heir, John, and his younger sons, Thomas and Robert.
