Richard Ingersoll was born before 10 March 1587/88 at Edworth, Bedfordshire, England.1 He was baptized on 10 March 1587/88 in Edworth, Bedfordshire, England.2
Richard married Ann Langley on 10 October 1611 in Sandy, Bedfordshire, England. They were married in Saint Swithin's Church..3 Richard Ingersoll came from Bedfordshire, England to Salem in 1629 under contract to the Massachusetts Bay Company as a planter. His family was to be brought over and he was well spoken-of in a letter from the Company secretary to Gov. John Endicott (See Suffolk Deeds, I).
Although he may have received an earlier one, the first land grant to Richard was a town grant of 2 acres in 1635. In 1636, he had another town grant of unstated area, also 80 acres on the Cape Ann side. This was on the east side of Wooleston River at a place called, after him, Ingersoll's Point. Here he cleared, fenced, planted, and improved his land. He also carried on a fishery. He and Pasco Foote in 1637 were to have "such p'portions as is nominated for them: by the frost-free brook next to Goodman Barneys" Wanting some meadow in 1639, he was granted 10 acres in the great meadow on 20 November and 20 acres on 11 December. In an undated list of about 1637 in the handwriting of Roger Conant, itis stated that the Ingersoll family consisted of 9 persons and he was granted 1 acre.
On 16 January 1636/37, Ingersoll was named to maintain a ferry across the North River during the town's pleasure, charging 1 penny for each passenger.
About 1639 or 1640 Ingersoll rented from Mr. Henry Chickering the Townsend Bishop farm at Salem village and worked it in partnership with his sons George and John. This farm, later owned by Francis Nurse, was the center of a bitter controversy. He also bought, jointly with his son-in-law William Haynes, the so-called Western grant.
The town passed an order on 7 July 1644 that two men be appointed to walk forth every Lord's Day in the time of God's worship to take notice of such as either lie about the meeting house without attending to the word or ordinances or that lie at home or in the fields without giving godd account thereof and to present them to the magistrates. Robert Molton Jr. and Richard Ingersoll were the sixth such pair appointed.
A house built by Ingersoll in Salem said to be original of Hawthorne's "House of Green Gables". Richard's will dated 21 Jul 1644 names his wife Ann; sons George, Nathaniel, & John; daughters Bathsheba & Alce Walcott; and sons-in-law Richard Pettingall & William Haines. After his death, his widow, Ann, married John Knight, Sen, of Newbury.4
Richard died circa August 1644 in in Salem, Essex County, Massachusetts. See Threfall, 26 Great Migration Colonists, p.143, for wording of Richard Ingersoll's will and an inventory of his estate..5
