Austin Killam.

Austin was the son of Henry Kilham and Alice Goodale.  He was born about 1595 in Yorkshire, Norfolk, England and died 05 Jun 1667 in Wenham, Essex, Massachusetts.

Austin, the progenitor of the American family of Kilham/Killam probably came to America on the "Mary Anne" out of Yarmouth, England, being examined 11 May 1637 as "desirouse to goe to Salam in the New E."  At a town meeting, held 07 Aug 1637, "Augustin Kelham is admitted for inhabittant & is to hau[v]e a q'ter of an acre before Easties house."  He was subsequently granted a ten-acre lot on Cape Ann Side before 26 Jun 1638.  On 17 Apr 1639, Austen Calem and William Browne were engaged by the town of Salem to keep the goats for that year.  On 21 Jan 1639/40, the town granted to Austen Kelham thirty acres of land.

In the spring of 1640, Mr. Killam removed to Dedham, and he and his wife were received into the Dedham church 28 Aug 1640.  He was chosen "measurer" for the town on 12 Jan 1640/1.  The family removed to Wenham in 1648, or the spring of 1649, and were admitted to the church 31 May 1649.

Austin served on the trial jury at the Salem quarterly court, 26 Jun 1649 and was sworn constable of Wenham in the same court the next Christmas day.  In 1652, his wife was presented for wearing a silk hood; but the case was continued, nothing more concerning it appears on record, and apparently the matter was dropped.  He served on the grand jury in 1655, 1657, and 1658.  In the latter year, a suit was brought against him and his son Daniel and son-in-law Richard Hutton by William Browne to recover for the rent of a farm in Wenham.

In 1653, the people of Wenham contributed to the support of Harvard College, and Austin Killam and his sons Daniel and John are on the list of donors.  Of the 25 persons who thus contributed only four gave more than Mr. Killam.  He also gave liberally to the support of the church, and was one of the two collectors of the salary of the minister in 1659.  He was also one of the committe of three chosen to build the meetinghouse in December 1660 and it was erected upon his land.

Austin made his will only three days before his death.  The following is an exact copy of the original document which is on file in the probate office at Salem [the character "ƒ" should be read as the letter "s"]:
