Excerpt from Ralph's Scrap Book: Illustrated by His Own Camera and Collection of Photographs, and Compiled by His Father Edmund Bicknell In connection with this volume and the Bicknell coat-of-arms prefacing its contents, it is perhaps not inappropriate to state briefly the origin of the Bicknell family in this country. In 1635, Zachary Bicknell, an English naval officer, his wife Agnes, and his son John, came to this country and settled in Weymouth, Massachusetts. Zachary died one year later, thus leaving his son John, from whom sprung the numerous progeny bearing the Bicknell name now scattered from ocean to ocean and from the lakes to the gulf. In 1879, a reunion of the Bicknell family then living in the United States, took place in Weymouth, when the Bicknell Family Association was organized. Enthusiasm ran high, the result of which was the publishing, in 1880, of a ninety-six page volume, containing order of exercises at the reunion, address of welcome by Hon. Thomas W. Bicknell, of Boston, president of the association, address by Hon. George A. Bicknell, M. C. of Indiana, reading of original poems, an original hymn, and a brief history of the Bicknell family.
