President Richard Nixion was descended from this line!

He descends from Restore Lippincott, son of Richard and Abigail.

From Gary Boyd Roberts book on Ancestors of American Presidents? 

It should be in almost any good genealogy library.  It lists
Nixon's ancestry back to Rebecca, daughter of Restore LIPPINCOTT and Hannah Shattuck, who was born in 1684.  She married Josiah Gaskill.    From there it goes to Jonathan Gaskill and Jane Shinn (the Shinns are another of MY lines).  From there it goes to Hope Gaskill and her husband James Cattell, Jr. (Burlington County, NJ).  Their daughter Jane Cattell married Benjamin Malmsbury and they moved to Goshen, Ohio.  Their daughter Hope married James Hemingway, Jr. and they had a daughter Jane M. who married Oliver Burdg.  Their daughter Almira Park Burdg married Franklin Milhous and their daughter Hannah Milhous married Francis Anthony Nixon and they were Richard Nixon's parents.

GASCOIGNE, GASKIN, GASKILL, GASCOYNE

Edward Gascoign the Immigrant, a shipright from England came to Boston in 1635. Some of his descendants suffering the persecutions of the Friends, by the Pilgrims, in Massachusetts moved to Shelter Island, New York. (Shannels N.J. First Citizens, State Guide, Volume II 1919-1920. pg. 180).

From Nelson burr Gaskill who compiled "Genealogical and Biographical Notes Concerning Edward Gaskill, 1667-c1748. His ancestry and osteriaty" by Thomas L. and Nelson B. Gaskill, pub. 1956 (hereafter referred to as NBG) states:

GASCOIGNE was a Hugenot who fled to England and then to America - he gives a reference I have not found "Famlee Minorum Gentium" Vol. 1 page 302. which may substantiate this statement. Othere sources say he was born in Gascony, France or originally from there. The possible origin of the name being "wine makers."

From the Dictionary of the Ancestral Heads of New England Familles 1620-1700, by Frank R. Holmes.

GASCOYNE, GASKIN, GASKELL: an ancient English family. the name derived from the GAelic word GASIGELL, valourous.


Gaskill, gaskell (Eng.) One who came from Gaisgill (Wild Goose)
"GASKIN, GASKINS, GASKING (Eng) one who came from Gascony (land of the Basques), A region in Southewest France."

From N.Y. Genealogical and Biographical Record Volume 20 page 32-33:

"The GASKELLS and GASKINS of Monmouth and Burlington County are the Huguenot origin, descending from Edward GASCOYNE, a shipwright, who had
a grant of land in Salem, Massachusetts, in 1639. He had a son Samuel who married Provided SOUTHWICK..."

From Cuddeback and Hacket "Gaskill Genealogy" we have one more tidbit "In the Register of Baptisims for the Parish of Upholland is the following entry: Edmund (or Edward) Filius of Thomas GASKELL de Upholland in New Gate, 6 June, 1609."

Edward, shipwright, granted land at Salem, MASS., 1637. His wife's name is given as Sarah, last name unknown, possibly PARKER.

Savage lists the following children all baptized Congregational Church, Salem MA.

My Great grandfather was born Apr 1848 in Pa, son of William Gaskill
born in Masontown, Pa 1819 and moved then to Cookstown, Pa son of
Abraham Gaskill b. 1793 in PA  (probably Fayette co, Pa) son of Budd

Burlington Co, NJ  son of Josiah Gaskill b. 1712 (married amy shreve),
