  • 1 the Descendants of William Robblee And
    The Descendants of William Robblee and Keturah Baker of Lanesborough, MA Compiled by Cindy Walcott <cwalcott141 at gmail.com> Fall 2018 William Robblee and his wife Keturah Baker apparently started their married life in Dutchess Co., NY. William bought land in Lanesborough, MA in 1768. Presumably, the couple moved there – across the line from New York to Massahusetts – about that time. Their younger children were born there. William died at age 60, when several of his children were still minors. Keturah stayed in Lanesborough for some time. However, the majority of her living children joined the northward migration of Lanesborough families to New Haven, VT by the 1790s. Later, she would join them, and marry the Quaker Stephen Haight. Some of Keturah’s family of origin were also Quaker; perhaps she practiced this religion as well. One of her sons, William (although he may have lived briefly in New Haven) stayed in Lanesborough. He used the spelling Rubblee for his surname. However, those in Vermont adopted the spelling Rublee. Her daughters remained in New Haven. However, her sons soon continued their move northward, settling in Berkshire, VT. Some stayed there; others moved to Quebec, New York, Wisconsin and beyond. William Rubblee’s descendants removed to Ellington, NY where many have remained to this day. Most individuals with the surname Rublee belong to this family. But there is an exception. There is a Rublee family on Wisconsin that is descended from Even Knudson Ruble and his wife Birgit Olsdatter Onsgard, both born in Norway. Even was the son of Khud Evensen Hoyme and Seborg Haagensdatter.

Among the events of the past, never to be forgotten, espe- cially by us of this generation, are those connected with the civil war which so lately deluged our land with blood and made us a nation of mourners. Though all did not engage in the deadly conflict, or receive in their own persons injuries sach as have brought untold sufferings to thousands of the brave defenders of our country, yet who can forget the anxiety on every countenance as men waited to hear the last news from the scene of conflict ; the sleepless nights, when thoughts of loved ones far away forbade repose ; and, beside, the darkness which hung ^ over our national afl"airs during all that bloody period, was a darkness which could be felt.
