 Documentation:
Jacob Kimball born in Preston, CT, 1 Dec 1735; died 18
May 1826, Paupack, Pike, PA; married 16 Jan 1754, Esther Phillips of
Plainfield, CT, daughter of Jonathan and Esther (Ayers) Phillips. Resided
in Preston and Norwich, CT. In
1774, he was one of the orginial Wallenpaupack settlers from CT to remove
to PA. This settlement had orginated from a tract of land surveyed 14 Oct
1751 "for the use of the propietaries of PA," and was called
Wallenpaupack Manor. 21 Feb 1793,
this manor was conveyed to Hon. James WILSON, who gave a mortgage to John
PENN, the Elder, and John PENN, the younger, the vendors. In 1804 the
mortgage was foreclosed, and Samuel SITGRAVES of Easton purchased the
land in trust for the PENN
heirs. All of the Wallenpaupack Settlement was of this manor, and the
first valid titles obtained by these settlers were from the SITGRAVES. At
the time Jacob and the other CT families had settled along Paupack Creek,
none had legal claim to
the land. They had surveyed and laid out carefully defined boundaries,
which became fixed and are those by which the lots are known to this day
They may well have thought, as there was some form of claim, that this
was a part of the state of
CT. In any case, they were not assessed by any PA authority until Wayne
Co.(now Pike), was set off in 1798. The settlement was isolated, and in a
well traveled Indian area, as it was used by the Indians to trace from
Cochecton to the
Wyoming Valley area, not a healthy place to be located as they
discovered. Notified of the Battle of Wyoming in 1778, the settlement was
evacuated to the safer shores of the Delaware River. They returned again
in 1782, and Jacob Kimble (as he
and his descendants have always used this spelling of this name), and his
son Abel Kimble, built the first grist mill on Kimble's Brook. Jacob was
a farmer and a lumberman. He and Esther had 13 children.
