GENERATION I. THOMAS KILBORNE, THE common ancestor of all the KILBORNES(*) on the Western Continent, was born in the parish of Wood Ditton, in the county of Cambridge, England, A. D. 1578, where he was baptized on the 8th of May of that year. The next mention I have found of him, is contained in the will of Agatha Borrowdale, (already referred to,) who, in 1613, bequeathed to him and others, certain property in trust for benevolent purposes; for the care of which he was to receive, at the end of every seven years, "a ring of gold of the price of 30s." &c. Unlike most of the pioneers of New England, he was a member of the Church of England, as appears from the fact that he was a "Church Warden" of his native parish in 1632. He married Frances (???), and had eight children, viz., Margaret, Thomas, Elizabeth, George, Mary, Lydia, Frances and John. On the 15th of April, 1635, Thomas Kilborne, with a portion of his family, embarked from London for New England, in the ship "Increase," Robert Lea, master, as appears by the following paragraphs from the Hon. James Savage's "Gleanings for New England History," in the Collections of the Massachusetts Historical Society, 3d series, Vol. VIII, p. 243, viz.:
With some of his family, Thomas embarked from London on the ship "Increase" 15 April 1635, and landed July 1635. Robert Lea was ship master.
"15th Apr. 1635. These parties hereafter expressed are to be transported to New England, embarqued in the Increase, Robert Lea, master, having taken the oath of allegiance and supremacy, as also being conformable to the orders and discipline of the church, whereof they brought testimony per certificates from the Justices and Ministers where their abodes have lately been.

On the 8th of March 1654, Mr. Kilbourn was appointed a member of the committee to run the Boundary Line between Wethersfield and "Mattabossett" (or Middletown), and three years subsequently he was chosen a member of a new committee for the same work. On the 2d of April, 1655, John Kilbourn and Thomas Wright were appointed "to run ye line betwixt Hartford and Wethersfield upon ye second day of next week." In May, 1657, he was confirmed by the General Court "to be Sergeant at Wethersfield;" and from that time forward, he is almost uniformly designated upon the Town Records as "Sergeant Kilbourn."
