Facts and Events
[edit] Caleb Kimball's Death and Estate"He was in the expedition commanded by Capt. Lathrop and was killed by the Indians 18 Sep 1675 at Bloody Brook during King Philip's War. He was probably never married, as his estate was divided among his brothers and sisters. Administration was granted to his father Henry and his brother Richard. At the time of his father's death the estate was still unsettled, and Richard is directed to divide it among the twelve children of Henry. There was due from his estate to his father's estate, £25, as mentioned in his father's inventory. The total property, according to the inventory was £50. Among the assets were seven weeks' wages due "fr. ye contry £12.2s." (Savage wrongly gives the Caleb that was killed at Bloody Brook as the son of Richard. The above notes will serve to show that it was Caleb, the son of Henry, who was killed. Caleb, the son of Richard, had two children born after this date, and did not die until 1682)."[1] In Caleb's inventory among the listed items are: "that his father Henery Kemball had in money, 17s," and "four bushels and half of Indien corne that henery Kemball his father had of Caleb Kemball's corn, 15s 9d."
