Henry Kimball
(Richard, Henry)

Henry was born about 1655 (twenty-two in 1677).  He resided in Wenham, MA, until about 1675, when he removed to Haverhill, MA, and was living there on January 10th of that year.  He was a soldier in King Philip's War, and served in 1675-6, probably with his brother Caleb.

He married on December 14, 1677 to Hannah Marsh, the daughter of Onesipherous and Hannah (Cutler) Marsh of Haverhill.  She and her only son, John, were killed by the Indians March 15 1696-7.  Henry did not marry again, and so left no male descendants, but the descendants of his daughters are very numerous.  Henry died in 1698.

All children were born in Haverhill, MA.
