Ashe Burns Keen

John & Martha Keen arrived in Boston from South Hampton England in 1638 aboard the Goode Ship Confidence. Early towns for the Keens(Keenes)include Hingham, Marshfield, Pembroke,Duxbury & Plymouth all in Massachusetts. Much research into the Keen line exists because of the connection to Richard Warren, and due to the vast number of descendants. Many Keens fought in both the Revolutionary and Civil Wars. It was Joshua Keen who first moved to Hebron, Maine from Pembroke about 1780. I believe it was his son Joshua who owned the house on Megquier Hill, West Poland, Maine,which still stands today with it's gorgeous view of Tripp Lake.
John Ashe was born in Edinburgh, Scotland and came to the U.S.A. in 1805, was married to Polly Richardson;(Their son Benajamin Ashe married Sarah Keen). John must have been proud of
his Scottish heritage for on his tombstone is written, "Born in Scotland..".They resided in Buckfield and then Turner, Maine.

John Burns was born Massachusetts in 1783, and is found in Oxford Maine at the time of it's incorporation. Married Jerusha Rich, they lived in the section of Oxford refered to as Richville. Grandaughter Julia married Walter, the son of Benjamin Ashe and Sarah Keen Ashe. John Lived to 91 years, and even took a wife after Jerusha passed on though he was in his eighties.
