Message Board Post:
Naturalist Colby Rucker dies at 67
Colby Buxton Rucker, 67, a tree expert, naturalist and lifelong resident of
Pines-on-the-Severn in Arnold, died Nov. 23 at his home of complications
from cancer.
Mr. Rucker was born April 26, 1937, in Baltimore, the son of the late Colby
Guequierre and Marcelyn Elizabeth Buxton Rucker. He was home-schooled and
then attended Wroxeter-on-Severn School, boarded at Christchurch School in
Virginia and graduated valedictorian from Severn School in Severna Park in
1955.
Shortly afterwards, he established Rucker Tree Experts, a regional tree-care
company, which he owned and operated from 1956 until 1980. In 1981, he
became supervisor of grounds at the Annapolis State Office Complex, retiring
in 1998.
An accomplished naturalist, Mr. Rucker was the 2004 recipient of the Jan
Hollman Environmental Education Award. Throughout his life he tirelessly
shared his love of nature with others, through his involvement with
environmental organizations, educational outreach programs and the
governmental process. He was a three-time president of the Severn River
Association, an organization through which he conducted weekly nature walks
at sites along the Severn River for many years.
He was vice chairman of the Severn Scenic River Advisory board, vice
chairman of the Severn River Commission, president of the Annapolis chapter
of the Izaak Walton League, on the Citizens Advisory Board to the County
Operating Budget and on the Citizens Advisory Board to the Nevamar Division
of International Paper Corp.
In addition, he was chairman of the State Forestry board, a director of the
Scenic Rivers Land Trust and a member of the Champion Tree Advisory Board of
American Forests, the Eastern Native Tree Society, the Ann Arrundell County
Historical Society and the Anne Arundel Genealogical Society.
Mr. Rucker was the author of "Scenic Rivers: The Severn," published in 1983
in conjunction with the Maryland Department of Natural Resources. In 1988,
he co-authored "Gems of the Severn," published by the Severn River
Commission. Both books are considered authoritative guides to the natural
history of the Severn River.
He was a contributor to "Walking Tour of the Trees of Historic Annapolis"
and "Listening to Our Trees, a Guide to the Trees of Wardour and West
Annapolis." He also authored an as-yet unpublished 400 page manuscript, "A
Survey of the Vascular Flora of Anne Arundel County." He was a contributor
to "The Barbary Plague," a book chronicling the bubonic plague outbreak in
San Francisco in the early 20th century. Mr. Rucker's grandfather, William
Colby Rucker, was the assistant surgeon general of the United States at that
time.
Mr. Rucker served in the Maryland National Guard from 1955 to 1961 and the
Army Reserves from 1961 to 1963.
In 1972 he acquired 25 acres of undeveloped property in Pines-on-the-Severn,
which he maintained as a nature preserve. The property includes state-rare
plants, eight Maryland champion trees, two national champion trees and a
large pond.
He was the originator of the "Rucker Index" for comparing forest profiles
for the Eastern Native Tree Society. He maintained an extensive personal
collection of papers and books on the history of Anne Arundel County and
Maryland.
Surviving are his wife, Elizabeth Trotter Rucker; two daughters, Jennifer
Rucker Troy of Arnold and Beverly Colby Rucker of Jamaica Plain, Mass; and
two grandchildren.
Visitation will be from 2 to 4 and 7 to 9 p.m. Friday at Hardesty Funeral
Home, 12 Ridgely Ave. A memorial service will be at 2 p.m. Saturday at St.
Margaret's Episcopal Church, 1601 Pleasant Plains Road. In lieu of flowers,
donations may be made to the Scenic Rivers Land Trust, P.O. Box 2008,
Annapolis, MD 21404.

Janice --
You are correct. Your Abraham COLBY was the youngest of the eight children of my 4th great grandparents, Coleman COLBY and Phebe (Abigail?) GARLAND. Abraham Colby was born 19 Jun 1805 in Eaton, Strafford, New Hampshire (Carroll County was not created from Strafford County until 1840). He died 11 Jul 1857 in Haverhill, Essex, Massachusetts. I am descended from Ebenezer COLBY, the eldest child of Coleman COLBY and Phebe (Abigail?) GARLAND.
Coleman COLBY was born 7 Jul 1765 in Hopkinton, New Hampshire. Hopkinton is located today in Merrimack County; prior to 1823 it was in Hillsborough County. New Hampshire was not divided into its original five counties until 1771, six years after Coleman COLBY was born. His parents (Abraham COLBY and Phebe COLEMAN) and their large family (11 children) apparently removed from Hopkinton to the Eaton/Madison/Conway area sometime between 1777 and 1786. Coleman COLBY married Phebe (Abigail?) GARLAND 27 Nov 1786 in Eaton, Strafford, New Hampshire. I know virtually nothing about Phebe (Abigail?) GARLAND.
Coleman COLBY was the 2nd great grandson of the immigrant ancestors, Anthony and Susannah COLBY. You can learn much more about this line by visiting one of the several excellent COLBY websites. I recommend especially the following:

According to her headstone Dorinda S Colby was born Jan 16 1835 died Nov 22
1925 in Bradford, New Hampshire. She married 15 April 1858 to Hiram Cofrin.
Hiram was born abt 1831 and died 18 Sep 1861 Bradford, New Hampshire.
They had two children:
Nettie I Corfin b. 10 Apr 1860 d. 2 Jul 1893 Bradford, New Hampshire
Hattie Corfin b. Mar 1861 d. 11 Sep 1861 Bradford, New Hampshire.
All are burried Baptist Church Cemetery in Bradford, New Hampshire.
Two questions:
Is Dorinda the daughter of Philip Colby and Lorinda Seavy
Did Dorinda marry Nathan R. Melvin after Hiram died.
I haven't been able to find Hiram Cofrin or Nathan Melvin and families in
any census, where are they?
