Rea Family Tree – GOODSPEED HISTORIES

First Generation: (1) Alexander Rea (1710 – 1771) & Sarah Alexander Rea and his second wife Sarah were Irish immigrants who first appeared in Sussex County, New Jersey about 1752. They eventually settled in Kingwood Township, where Alexander died leaving property to his sons and money to his daughters. Names underlined have children on this tree. Like all family trees on Goodspeed Histories, the children of daughters are included but the granddaughters are not. Also, I generally do not track families that move out of Hunterdon County. Finally, sometimes I will add the parents of spouses, and sometimes I won’t. Because I am lacking information on five of the eight children of Alexander and Sarah, corrections and additions are welcome in the comments section.

ASI ‘strikes gold’ at TN’s Adichanallur ancient site, finds diadem described by British archaeologist Alexander Rea

CHENNAI: Exactly 120 years after British archaeologist Alexander Rea found 20 gold diadems at Adichanallur ancient site in Tuticorin district of Tamil Nadu, the ASI found a similar one in the same place on Monday. The diadem was found in a one- metre-tall burial urn. ASI Trichy zone director Dr Arun Raj, who is in charge of the Adhichanallur excavations, said their urge to find a gold diadem had been very strong when they started the excavation. “So our joy knew no bounds when the diadem was found,” he said. The ASI excavation in the year 2004-2005 could not achieve this feat. Raj said Rea had described the site of his 20 diadems in detail. Rea had described that the site located on a specific mound near a temple at a particular distance from the bank of the river Thamirabarani. He had also described the artefacts that would be found while searching for gold diadems. The ASI mapped the area with the help of satellite mapping about four months ago and started digging. After 27 days, they found it in a burial urn which has a diameter of 2.4 metre. The diadem was found at the bottom of the urn along with a few other objects, including a bronze sieve. “Rea found it at a depth of four metre, and we found it at 4.4 metre. We found artefacts similar to the ones he had found,’’ he said. This gold diadem is 3.5 cm in length in folded condition and contains concentric circles on it as Rea had described. “This diadem will attract global attention,’’ he hoped. “It is believed that the...

The Murder of Alexander Rea – The Pennsylvania Rambler

The grave of Alexander Rea, Fairview Cemetery, Danville Fairview Cemetery, located on the eastern edge of Danville, is a relatively small cemetery when compared to the other cemeteries around the town. Arriving at the cemetery, I stepped out of the vehicle and scanned the field of stones. This was not the first time I visited Fairview Cemetery, having made a stop here years ago on a trip to Centralia with Mike. On that day, I had taken random pictures of the cemetery, but did not realize I photographed the grave of a man who played a role in regional history. The man had been murdered over a century ago and while three men were executed for his death, they may not have been guilty of the crime at all. I stood there, trying to figure out where I had taken the pictures from. I knew it was from the roadway passing through the cemetery, so I walked along it until I found the grave. Located next to the roadway, the simple stone fails to explain the importance of the man nor does it hint at the murder that took his life. Instead, it lists Alexander Rea along with his wife and two children with their birth and death dates; a similar stone next to his marks the grave of his son, Alexander. Little is known about the early life of Alexander Rea. It is known he was born in Flemington, New Jersey on May 3, 1824. Rea studied at Lafayette College and after graduation took up engineering at the Franklin Institute. Upon the completion of his studies, Rea moved to Danville. In 1852, Rea he...

Adichanallur Archaeological Site

Adichanallur Archaeological Site is one of the oldest civilized sites in Tamil Nadu. Adichanallur is located in Thoothukudi district on the banks of the river Thamiraparani which flows in the Thiruvaikundam circle. This archeological site is located at a distance of about 24 km from Tirunelveli on the way to Thiruchendur. The site is associated with a pre-1600 BC civilization. It is one of the first towns to be excavated by the Archaeological Survey of India. Numerous studies have been carried out on the Urns buried here. The site was first excavated extensively by Alexander Rea in 1903-04. He explored in 1890s and discovered 1800 objects in the first phase of research. This study continued until 1904. He found and displayed more than four thousand antiquities in it. With the development of science at that time, he estimated the period of Adichanallur as 3000 BCE – 1500 BCE. He also published a article entitled “Prehistoric Antiquities of Tinnevelly”. One hundred years later, in 2004-05, under the leadership of Mr. Sathyamoorthy, the study was conducted in four phases. Bronze items were more available. Alexander Rea’s study also found that bronze and iron were more abundant. Two items found in the Adichanallur excavations were sent to the Archaeological Laboratory in the United States where radiocarbon dating was done. The age of one of the objects is 905 BCE, the age of another revealed as 791 BCE. Vignesh Srinivan Archeological Studies researcher

The Murder of Alexander W. Rea

The Murder of Alexander W. Rea Andruss Library Special Collections The Murder of Alexander W. Rea and the Trial and Execution of Patrick Hester, Patrick Tully and Peter McHugh: The Columbia County Mollie Maguires A Full-text Primary Resource on 19th Century Pennsylvania History On the 17th of October 1868 Alexander Rea was on his way to Centralia when he was ambushed and murdered by a group of men who would later be identified as Mollie Maguires. Rea was murdered for a large sum of money that he was thought to have in his possession at the time of the attack. The guilty party escaped detection for a short time, but three persons were arrested, along with a fourth shortly after the first and the first three were tried and acquitted, the fourth let go. The murder remained a mystery until 1876, when a man nicknamed Kelly "the Bum" confessed to the crime and implicated Patrick Hester, Patrick Tully and Peter McHugh. The trial was quickly labeled a Mollie Maguire trial and the public was enthralled. The three men were convicted of the murder of Rea and sentenced to death by hanging. Over a year later on March 25, 1878, Hester, Tully and McHugh met their fate on the gallows in Bloomsburg Pennsylvania. The event was not only covered by local papers, but by national papers from cities like Chicago, Philadelphia and New York. This was the only Mollie Maguire trial and execution in Columbia county. This is but a brief history of this series of events in Columbia County and the town ...
