I am working on my Ricks and Woodmansee line. My goal is to find the first Ricks American. At this time I only have Sarah Ricks born 29 Jun 1647 from my ancestral chart. She married her husband Gabriel Woodmansee in 1667 in New London, Connecticut. She died much later than Gabriel. The 30th of Sept 1729. Where, I can only guess where maybe where her children were living? They had Thomas Woodmansee who I decend from on the 17th of Sept 1670, in New London, Conn. Sarah's father is stated to be John Ricks, born about 1617. Her mother is an unknown. Maybe, born about 1621. Can anyone that knows about this line from their research share add or discuss further about the 1st generation Ricks and where they landed in America? Hopefully even connect to the motherland, England!

I don't know if this will help but I have a book published 1908. The title is History and Genealogy of The Ricks Family of America. The introduction states "The name first appears in England about the time of William the Conqueror, about 1066. research shows several of the name came to this country from England in its early settlement, Thomas and William came about 1645, and settled in Boston and Salem, MA. Issac Ricks came about the same time and settled in Isle of Wight Co., Virginia. Today in the west of England the name is spelled Ricks, while in the east it is spelled Rix." If you need more help let me know. [2]
