The Fall River branch of the Lincoln family traces its roots to 17th-century Hingham, Massachusetts, originating from families in Norfolk, England. Notably, Thomas Lincoln, the miller, moved to Taunton, where his descendants, including Caleb Lincoln, contributed to the area’s manufacturing growth. Jonathan Thayer Lincoln, a prominent figure in Fall River’s industrial scene, led Kilburn, Lincoln & Co., which excelled in machinery production. His sons continued this legacy, shaping the local economy and civic life through various business and community engagements, demonstrating the family’s enduring influence in the region.
