Page 5 is the first page of the 1922 Supplement with genealogical information.  The supplement was hand-written, and dashes were often substituted for commas.  I will use commas for clarity's sake.  As in the paragraph below, persons in the genealogy were numbered sequentially and referred to by "#".  However, in the text, the numbers were enclosed by parentheses, which I will transform into the "#" symbol, followed by a period.  John Cogswell Badger used the plus mark, "+" at the end of a child's entry to indicate that there was more information in a later entry under the sequential number.

BADGER GENEALOGY

In 1635 or 1644 (2 records) there were three persons by the name of Badger that were landholders in Newbury, Ms., viz., Giles, Nathaniel, and Richard, the two latter, it is supposed returned to England after a time, as many did at that period, as nothing more seems to be known of them, except that Nathaniel is said to have had a wife named Hannah (_____).  Also Old Norfolk Co., Ms., records give the birth at Hampton of Hester, 12th month, 22nd day, 1664, dau. of Nathaniel & Deborah (_____) Badger.

Although Harry S. Badger, # 1459, p. 248, of Nashville, Tenn., in a letter dated Feb. 1909, stated that he had heard his father, Gen. Algernon S. Badger, # 935-1, say many times, that of these three brothers, one settled in Mass., and one in the Carolinas, from which many in the southeastern part of the West Indies [sic] trace their descent, and the other returned to England, but the following is known of Giles Badger.

Blogger's notes:

(1) "The History of Newbury Massachusetts" first lists Giles Badger in March 1642 on "The Stint of the Ox & Cow Common," a list of every man (not just freemen) authorized to graze a certain number of cattle (2 for Giles Badger) in the ox, and heifer, and yearling stints of the commons of Newbury.  It contains only four other mentions of him, as he died in 1647 and several mentions of Richard and Nathaniel.  John J. Currier, "The History of Newbury Massachusetts," Damrell & Upham, Boston, 1902; and reprinted by Peter E. Randall, Portsmouth, NH, 1984.

(2) "The History of Newbury Massachusetts" also contains information about Richard and Nathaniel BadgerIt lists early settlers of Newbury who arrived in Boston in May, 1634, but Giles Badger is not included.  

(3) The will of Giles Badger and an inventory of his estate was posted online by my brother at this site:  http://essexcountyma.net/Wills/badgerg.htm.

Introduction

Parker River, southeast of Newbury

The title of this blog is the title of the Badger family genealogy published in 1909 by John Cogswell Badger, listing five generations of
descendants of Giles Badger of Newbury, Massachusetts.  It has been the starting point for those who could trace their ancestors to one of his
descendants.

When he published the Badger family genealogy, John Cogswell Badger explained that his purpose was "simply to complete his own family record
and trace his line of ancestry.  In fact, he provided a point from which all descendants of Giles Badger could trace their line of ancestry and complete
their family record.  He advised that "if any one will send all corrections and all additional data ... to the author, ... it will be ... deposited with the New Hampshire Historical Society, Concord, N.H."

He continued to collect information about the descendants of Giles Badger and compiled it in a bound ledger which he gave to the New Hampshire Historical Society in 1922.  The 1922 Supplement contains 500 pages, including 385 pages of genealogical information and an index of 48 pages.

The genealogical information extends the line of descent to 10 generations Giles Badger and provides information about Badger families whose connection to the line of Giles Badger could not be determined.

I intend to fill this blog with reliable information on the decendants of Giles Badger which was provided by John Cogswell Badger in 1909 and 1922 or which is presently provided by newly available sources.

John Cogswell Badger ended the introduction to his 1922 Supplement as follows:

"Any corrections or more Badger data of any description will be most gladly
received, or any information possible, as freely given by writing to the author,
enclosing stamp."  I will also be glad to receive or share information (stamp not
required), but please include clear source information.

I intend to address information on families related (clearly or apparently) to Giles Badger and sometimes on families of the Badger name who are clearly or apparently not related to Giles Badger.  The first person to
start with is, of course, Giles Badger himself.
