If you share the surname Kissam, you can most likely trace your ancestry to the first Kissam in America in the
mid-17th century. The Kissam family is fortunate to have a documented geneology since 1644, carefully researched by
Edward Kissam originally in the late 19th century ("The Kissam Family in America: 1644-1825", published in 1892), and updated
by Robert Varick Kissam in 1991.
The existence of a detailed geneology allows family members to connect their ancestors with historical events, notable
individuals, prominent institutions, and the progress of everyday life in America. The Kissam Family Association aims
to explore these connections, past and present.
