He appears on the census in Spring Prairie, Walworth County in 1840, and on the 1850 census living in Bloomfield.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Jesse W. Kimball<\/strong> (born in New York in 1805) and his wife Emily arrived in Walworth County about 1842.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Abner Murray Kimball<\/strong> (born in New Hampshire in 1812) and his wife&nbsp;Sarah arrived in East Troy, Walworth County&nbsp;about 1843. This family appears to be well documented in a <a href=\"https:\/\/familysearch.org\/tree\/person\/LC39-2MR\/details\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Family Tree<\/a> on Family Search, which traces the family back to the 1500&#8217;s in Rattlesden, Suffolk, England and to the death of <strong>Richard Kimball<\/strong> on June 22, 1675 in&nbsp;Ipswich, Essex, Massachusetts Bay Colony, British Colonial America.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Abraham Kimball<\/strong> (born in Vermont in 1807) and his wife Ruth arrived in Fulton, Rock County, between 1839 and 1843.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Newcomb Kimball<\/strong> (born in Pennsylvania in 1816) and his wife Elora arrived in Lima, Rock County, prior to 1843.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As can be seen, these Kimball&#8217;s (a surname associated with English emigrants) descended from families who settled in the Eastern United States. It does not appear that any of these early&nbsp; settlers were related to&nbsp;David Kimball.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">No records of early settlers to the area from Germany with the last name of &nbsp;&#8216;Jung&#8217; or its variations have been identified.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Although it is known that David Kimball was in the area at the time of the 1850 census, finding his entry is challenging. There are many Kimball&#8217;s enumerated in Walworth County, but there is only one entry with the last name of Kimball that has family members who were born in Germany. It matches David Kimball&#8217;s family in most details:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.rayson.us\/aehanson\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/Kimball_Just_David_1850_Wisconsin_Walworth_Bloomfield_Census_detail.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"2751\" height=\"782\" src=\"http:\/\/www.rayson.us\/aehanson\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/Kimball_Just_David_1850_Wisconsin_Walworth_Bloomfield_Census_detail.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-353\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rayson.us\/aehanson\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/Kimball_Just_David_1850_Wisconsin_Walworth_Bloomfield_Census_detail.jpg 2751w, https:\/\/www.rayson.us\/aehanson\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/Kimball_Just_David_1850_Wisconsin_Walworth_Bloomfield_Census_detail-300x85.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.rayson.us\/aehanson\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/Kimball_Just_David_1850_Wisconsin_Walworth_Bloomfield_Census_detail-768x218.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.rayson.us\/aehanson\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/Kimball_Just_David_1850_Wisconsin_Walworth_Bloomfield_Census_detail-1024x291.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2751px) 100vw, 2751px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">1850 United States Census, Wisconsin, Walworth, Bloomfield, Pages 6 (lines 36 &#8211; 42) and&nbsp;7 (lines 1-2).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The names were indexed on Ancestry.com as follows:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Dalphet &#8211; David?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Elisa &#8211; Margaret Eliza?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Molets &#8211; Believed to be George Morris (b. 1832).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Eliza &#8211; Believed to be Margaret Eliza (b. 1837).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>John &#8211; Johann Adam (b. 1839)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>William &#8211; William Frederick (b. 1840 )<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Itan &#8211; Ida Margaret (b. 1842)?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Martin (M)- believed to be Martha Lenora (Female, b. 1844)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Christina &#8211; Christiaina (b. 1848)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In spite of the above differences there are several aspects of this entry that support believing that it actually is documenting the <strong>David Kimball<\/strong> family:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The last name is correct<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The location is as expected<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The birth locations all line up<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The ages are correct<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Other than Martin\/Martha, the genders are correct<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Not enumerated are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Daughter <strong>Mary E.
