      <title>GEORGE AIKEN BATCHELDER , 4/13/1860 &amp;gt; ?, CA</title>
      <link>http://boards.rootsweb.com/surnames.batchelder/371/mb.ashx</link>
      <description>GEORGE AIKEN BATCHELDER &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;      BATCHELDER, GEORGE AIKEN, Vice President E. H. Rollins &amp;amp; Sons, Bonds, San Francisco, California, was born in that city April 13, 1860, the son of Joseph Moody Batchelder and Elizabeth (Aiken) Batchelder. He married Mary Whittemore Kittredge, daughter of Jonathan Kittredge, a California pioneer, in San Francisco, March 19, 1885, and two children were born to them, Doris Elizabeth (Mrs. De Lancy Lewis) and Kittredge Batchelder.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Mr. Batchelder comes in direct descent through eight generations from the Reverend Stephen Batchiler of Hampshire, England, who landed in Boston from the William and Francis, June, 1632.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Oliver Wendell Holmes speaks of the Reverend Stephen as that terrible old sinner and ancestor of great men. There has been some controversy as to the fitness of the first distinction, but of the second there can be no doubt. Among his well-known descendants are Daniel Webster, orator; John Greenleaf Whittier, poet; General Benjamin F. Butler, soldier and lawyer, Wm. Pitt Fessenden, statement; Caleb Cushing, diplomat; General R. N. Batchelder, Grants Chief Quartermaster of the Army of the Potomac, and many others of lesser note. George Aiken inherited his wanderlust from the Reverend Stephen, who took his B. A. at St. John College, Oxford, in 1586, afterwards lived in Holland and England, and sailed for America in 1632, after receiving from Charles I a grant of arms, notable as one of the few given for services performed in America. He returned to England, dying in 1660, in the one hundredth year of his age.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;George A. Batchelders mothers family came from Londonderry, in the north of Ireland, in 1660. His forbears proved their patriotism in the Colonial, the Revolutionary and the Civil wars. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Joseph M. Batchelder reached California in 1850, but went to China in the sixties and died of sunstroke at Miyanosta, Japan, in 1893. He raised the sunken steamship Ajax, which had blocked the river at Shanghai; built the first oceangoing steamship constructed in China, the Yangtzi, and was shipowner, transporting the troops of the Mikado in the war with the Tycoon in 1869.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Mr. Batchelders education has been varied and somewhat cosmopolitan. In 1866-67 he attended a private school in Shanghai, China; in 1868 a public school in New Hampshire; the Mount Pleasant Academy, Amherst, Massachusetts, 1869-70; Allens English and classical School, West Newton, Massachusetts, 1871-73; the Japanese Government Business School and the University of Tokio 1874-79, and at the Columbia Law School, Washington, D. C., in 1882-83. This extensive schooling was supplemented by traveling when pirates were afloat and traveling was not merely tripping in express trains and floating hotels, all of which combined to broaden his viewpoints. A three months voyage to Shanghai, via Honolulu and Foochow, on the barque Valetta, Captain Cavanaugh, in 1866; a cruise in a private yacht through the Inland Sea of Japan, in 1867, while the Tycoon still reigned; a return to San Francisco in March, 1868, on the China, Captain Cobb, with Anson Burlingameâ€™s first Chinese Embassy; back to Massachusetts via Panama in the same year, thence to Japan again in 1873 on the America, Captain Freeman, and from 1873 to 1880 traveling, attending school in Tokyo and acting as Assistant Secretary at the United States Legation, form a kaleidoscopic record that suggests a course of moving-picture shows. An official touch is added by the fact that the American Government rented, for ten years, as its Legation in Japan, the residence of Mr. Batchelders father.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;The roving spirit again seized Mr. Batchelder in 1897 and sent him to Europe in that year; again, in 1902, to the South Seas, and Tahiti in 1904, and around the world in 1907-08.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Mr. Batchelders active business life began in 1880, when he entered the Quartermasters Depot, U. S. A., in San Francisco, and rose in two years to the post of chief clerk of the depot. From 1882 to 1883 he was a clerk in the War Department at Washington, and in October of the latter year he became treasurer of the Dakota Investment Company at Grand Forks in the Red River Valley of the then Territory of Dakota.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;In 1885 he became an officer of the corporation of E. H. Rollins &amp;amp; Sons as Western manager, and in 1892 went to Denver, Colorado, to take charge of its business there. Two years later, in 1894, he opened the San Francisco branch of the house, which thereby became the pioneer bond house of the Pacific Coast. Since that date he has placed more than thirty millions of outside capital in California municipalities and corporations.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;In 1894 Mr. Batchelder introduced on this Coast the business of dealing solely in municipal and corporation bonds. The San Francisco office force of E. H. Rollins &amp;amp; Sons consisted of a bookkeeper and a stenographer, with a local business of perhaps $500,000 annual volume. Today the establishment embraces twenty-six, with a volume of some $11,000,000 annually. It was not until 1905 that the second bond house was established in San Francisco, since which time some half a dozen other houses have been added.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Mr. Batchelder has been a director of numerous corporations in various States, and among these his directorship of the Bay Counties Power Company, which broke all previous records for long-distance transmission of electric power, and that of the Western Pacific Railway, the first railroad to break into California against the will of the Southern Pacific, are those in which he took greatest pride, officially speaking.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;After the Continental rather than the American custom, he retired from active business at the age of 50. He is now, he says, taking life easy after the English and Japanese modes, enjoying his home and giving as much time as he can spare therefrom to certain necessary business interests and to his clubs and societies. Of the latter he has a varied assortment. Among them: The Society of Colonial Wars, D.C., the Bohemian Club, the Pacific Union Club, the Military Order of the Loyal Legion, California Commandery, and the Menlo Country Club.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Source: Press Reference Library, Western Edition Notables of the West, Vol. I,  Page 163, International News Service, New York, Chicago, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Boston, Atlanta.  1913.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;</description>

His wife is listed as Je???, age 37, born Dec. 1862.   She is listed as being born in Vermont, but both of her parents were born in Canada.   She is listed as having had 5 children with 4 still living.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Childen are listed as:&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Roy E,  born: July 1883, Vermont, age 16, single&lt;br&gt;Cora B, born: Nov. 1884, Vermont, age 15, single&lt;br&gt;Ira, born: Feb 1890 (?), Vermont, age 10&lt;br&gt;Gladys G., born Aug. 1895, Vermont, age 5.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;IN 1910 CENSUS for Holland, Orleans County, Vermont, Edward H.

      <description>Yes, everything you posted is correct. Alexander was a merchant and ferryman in 1652 in Portsmouth.  Administration was granted on his estate 26 Jun 1660.  His wife was Ann and her will was dated 5 Nov. 1660 and probated 26 Jun 1661.  He took the freeman's oath in Exeter, NH 14 Jul 1657.</description>

      <description>Hello Anne, The date of your Nelson 1843 could be the time he was born but the quilt I believe came from New England and was made about 1880(he would have been in his forties then) when these type of fund raising quilts were popular. Also because of the materials on the quilts the date . It is possible that he had cousins in the East another Nelson and a relative of a later Lydia. Vermont is very possible for the area where these people lived. I haven't had time to do much other research on it. The quilt is put away for another summer until I have more time this winter to research it more. Thank you for the information.</description>

      <title>Quilt</title>
      <link>http://boards.rootsweb.com/surnames.batchelder/14.27.29.31.32.33/mb.ashx</link>
      <description>Hi I was looking at the previous couple of messages and you mention a Sarah Goodale marrying a Batchelder and the Goodale name is also on the quilt so this is interesting as often the same families lived in the same area for years. I believe the quilt is circa 1880's (much later than Sarah Goodale's time) but am still trying to get an exact date. I also believe it has a connection to Brockton Mass. As my grandmother lived in that area when she aquired the quilt and have traced several of the girl's names Ellen Clifford and Sarah Clifford to a shoe factory in Brockton. It's possible they all new each other through work. Thanks for the help. Laleah</description>

      <title>nelson or Lydia Batchelder from N.E. 1800's</title>
      <link>http://boards.rootsweb.com/surnames.batchelder/14.27/mb.ashx</link>
      <description>I have a signature quilt with these names on it. Nelson Batchelder, Lydia Batchelder&lt;br&gt;Some other surnames on it have a link that said 'worked in shoe factory' Brockton Mass.&lt;br&gt;The materials on quilt appear to be from 1870- 1905/ found in my Maine attic but my grammy lived for a while in Boston and Conn. &lt;br&gt;Other surnames on quilt include Bishop, Clifford, Dresser, morrison, Morse, Johnson, &lt;br&gt;Taylor, Liviston, Webster. Very common names.&lt;br&gt;But several for each family so if I can only find out who Nelson and Lydia were and when and where they lived I will solve my Mystery Quilt!!!!!! Thanks Laleah in Maine</description>

      <title>Batchelders in PA</title>
      <link>http://boards.rootsweb.com/surnames.batchelder/14/mb.ashx</link>
      <description>I'm researching my Batchelder ancestors in PA and elsewhere. I'm stuck trying to find the names of a generation of 7 sons who emigrated to the US from Northern England. George Batchelder settled in PA, one sone settled in Burlington, NJ; another settled in Maine; one settled in Vermont and started a hat factory; one operated a canal boat on the Schuykill River at Manayunk PA; another settled in New Hampshire and started a cotton factory; the last settled in Boston and owned a shoe factory. The prolific parents of these men lived in Northern England, the mother emigrated from Holland to England.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;If you can help unravel this piece of history I would be more than willing to shed some light on George Batchelder's descendents.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Thanks,&lt;br&gt;Lisa Griffith</description>

      <description>Laleah,&lt;br&gt;Thanks for your response. I will certainly keep an eye out for any Nelson and/or Lydia Batchellers who might be from New England. As well, if you do identify their identities/origins, would you please drop an email? I am sure they are related to my relatives as they went from Massachusetts to Vermont and New York and then to Wisconsin and Michigan.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Thanks,&lt;br&gt;Anne</description>

      <title>Nelson and Lydia on quilt</title>
      <link>http://boards.rootsweb.com/surnames.batchelder/14.27.43/mb.ashx</link>
      <description>I know you posted the info. re. the quilt quite awhile back, but if it helps, I do have info on Nelson Batcheller. There is only one Nelson that I have come across. He was born Aug. 20, 1843 in Wisconsin, but his parents were from the East. His father, Ebenezer, was born in Vermont and his mother, Lucy Comstock was born in Oneida County, NY. Nelson is my great-granfather's brother. He also fought in the Civil War. Have much info about his family if you think this is the same person.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I have come across two Lydia's. One was born in 1748 in Upton, Worcester County, MA. She died in 1803. Her parents were David (of Wenham, MA) and Thankful Perham (of Worcester, MA). The other Lydia was born about 1755 in MA and her parents were Benjamin Batcheller and Hannah Hale of Essex County, MA.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Let me know please if you think these people could be the ones on the quilt.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;What a fantastic find!</description>

      <description>I have a relief Bill for his wife if you would like it let me know. But for now here is a little lead.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt; the Committee on the Judiciary be instructed to inquire into the facts connected with the recent death of James Batchelder, a deputy marshal of the United States, who, it is alleged, was murdered on Friday last, whilst engaged in enforcing a law of the Union against a violent and treasonable mob in the city of Boston; and if they find, as reported, that he was killed whilst in the performance of this patriotic duty, and has left a widow and children, that they further be instructed to report a bill making some proper and liberal provision for their relief.&lt;br&gt;</description>

      <description>We need more information about dates and locations to be able to help you.  My ancestor Stephen Batchelder came to the colonies and founded Hampton, New Hampshire so the name has been here a long time. One place to start is with tombstone records, obituaries, and death certificates.  Once you get to dates before 1930 you can start looking in published records such as census records.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Ted</description>

      <description>Robert, I would be glad to have your information on the Batchelder families.  I am particularly interested in those who were located in MA in the early 1800's.  Please contact me.   Pat Gilles, &lt;a href="mailto://sp.gilles@comcast.net"&gt;sp.gilles@comcast.net&lt;/a&gt;</description>

      <description>Don'tknow if I can help you or not.  My ancestor, a David Batchelder, indicates he was from Northridge, Worcester Co., MA, but he did marry Deborah Rickard in Cornish,Cheshire Co.,NH in August, 1811.  I know there were some Batchelders (or some version of that name)in the Cornish area at that time.  Later David and Deborah moved to Northbridge, were several of their children were born, and later census find them in New York State, where David disappears about 1833-40.  I have not been able to connect this David (who was probably born about 1775-80) with any Batchelder family, MA or NH.  I have gathered lots of material on these families, and some of it is organized on my computer so if you have any specific questions, I'd be glad to see what I have.

      <description>Looking for my maiden surname (Batchelder) comes from.  Fathers name is Micky, grandfather's name is David and that is all I know. My Mother's genology is clear but I know almost nothing about my Father's. I'm new to geneology searches but I am finding a lot about Batchelders, so much in fact that I'm almost as lost as when I started.  Would love some help.  Thanks</description>
