Notes
a. Note:   According to family notes, David Ingersoll, Senior, was born 1 December 1759 at North Parish of Sheffield, Berkshire Co., Massachusetts. He owned and operated a farm near Lee, and also sold marble from a quarry on his land. David and his wife Sarah Edwards [Parsons] Ingersoll had 13 children. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This branch of the Ingersoll family, descended from John Ingersoll, born 1616 in Bedfordshire, England, and died in Westfield, Massachusetts in 1684, were among the original propriators of Sheffield, MA, the first settlement in what is now Berkshire County in 1726. The family is also descended from Gov. John Webster, (1590-1661), Richard Curch (circa 1608-1668), and Richard Warren of the Mayflower. The Ingersoll and Yale families intermarried and might well be called the founders of Lee, Massachusetts. At 18 years, David Ingersoll saw military service in the Revolution in Col. John Brown's Berkshire County Regiment. He and Sarah were parents of thirteen children. Over 2000 descendants have been recorded. He was a Selectman of Lee, MA, and held other town offices of trust. Much of the marble in the United States Capitol Building in Washington, D.C., cames from a marble quarry which he owned. He was a founder pf the Lee Congregational Church. Several of his children married and moved to Ohio and Michigan. (REF: New York Genealogical and Biographical Record, vol 72, #3, page 215, July 1941)
