The family of Jacob Aldridge died 1815

 Yet again, we have a man of mystery.  Was he born in 1732, or 1741?  There was more than one Jacob Aldridge, of course. I think it's more likely that he was born in 1732, because the first reported child was born about 1759 and 18 would have been young to have been a father. But 1732 leaves his father, John Aldridge, having a child at age 20, so it's not totally impossible.  

This Jacob was the son of John and Eleanor possibly Watkins Aldridge.  He married Elizabeth Soper, the daughter of John and Martha Guttridge Soper, or he married Elizabeth Simpson, as yet unidentified, or he married both ladies.  Or perhaps he married Elizabeth Simpson Soper.  There are a lot of possibilities, and as yet I have not seen anything that cites a definitive record.  

Thanks to the will of James Aldridge, their first son and brother of Jacob, we do know something of the family of Jacob and Elizabeth.  And thanks to Michael Hait, who posted the will on June 23, 2011 in his post A Friend of Friends Friday: James Aldridge of Prince George's County, Maryland.  James died after April 16, 1833, the date he added a codicil to his will. 

James named his brother Andrew as one of the executors, (Andrew refused) and left bequests to the children of two of his deceased siblings, and settling the estate revealed their names.  So we have something to go on here.  

Jacob and Elizabeth had the following children:

James was born in 1759.  Based on his will, if he had ever married, his wife and any children had died previously, and he had no direct descendants.

John, born in 1761, is not mentioned in James's will, probably because he was living in Indiana by 1833 and was more or less able to take care of his family.  However, we know that John, known as John Simpson Aldridge, was married to Mary Lakin, the daughter of Joseph and Elizabeth Fee Lakin.  John was a Revolutionary War veteran and is better documented than those Aldridges who stayed in Maryland.  His children are Joseph, Rachel, Erasmus, Elizabeth, Mary, Sarah, John Simpson Jr., Delilah, and Nathan.  I will follow this family in my next post.

Andrew Aldridge was born about 1763.  He was alive in 1834, when he wrote to the co-executor of James's will, declining to serve as executor.  The post mentioned above doesn't indicate where Andrew was living at the time, and I've not found any other information that clearly is this Andrew.  

Jacob was born in 1768 and married Martha Jones, so far not further identified. He had died by the time James wrote his will, and so we know his children, at least the ones living as of 1833.  They are Ann, Caroline, Christy (also seen as Christiana), Martha, and Washington.   

Eleanor was born about 1772 and married Richard Belt, who may have been the son of Edward Belt.  She lived until 1857 but the only child I can find listed for her is Louisa.  It is possible that this family went to Missouri, as a man by the name of Richard Belt is buried there.  

The final child was Elizabeth, known as Betsy.  She married an as yet unidentified man named Jones, and their children are William, Matilda, Samuel, and Pamela. 

This list, if complete, gives Jacob at least 19 grandchildren, but research is continuing.  

I would be remiss if I didn't include a tip of the hat to James, who in his 1833 will freed his slaves, at least the females, and left them a small sum of money besides.  I don't know whether James is the last Aldridge to hold slaves, but we can hope this is the case. 

 

The family of John Aldridge 1712-1750, maybe

 And here is yet another Aldridge in this line, with disputed dates and wife (or wives) and children.  I sure hope someone in Maryland can do some research with original documents and figure this out.  

The one thing I'm fairly sure about is John Aldridge's will.  (Note: I have seen this man referred to as John Simpson Aldridge, but I think this is two generations too early to have the name Simpson.  There may be something, somewhere, to show I am wrong, and I'd be happy to hear about it.)  In his will, John names his wife Elinor, and sons John, Jacob, Thomas, and Susannah.  These are the only children known for certain, but there may have been others, presumably dead or perhaps already given their inheritance, at the time of John's 1750 will.  

John's birthday is variously given as 1702 and 1712.  There were at least two John Aldridges in the Anne Arundel and Prince Georges County areas in Maryland.  One went south, to North Carolina, and one, this John, had land in Prince Georges County in 1733.  He would have been a young man, when he acquired his land, and still relatively young when he died, whether he was 38 or 48 when he died.  

If the birth dates given most often for his children are correct, then it's possible he had two wives.  Two children are shown with birthdates in 1730 and 1732, and two in 1740 and 1744.  It's also possible that there were births between the two sets of children, and there was just one wife.  

 The known wife's name is also not entirely certain.  She seems to have been Elinor Watkins, the daughter of John Watkins, with her mother's name variously seen as Mary Warman and Anne Gassaway.  Here is the sparse information I have been able to glean about their children:

Susannah was born about 1730.  Her inheritance was just five shillings, so she must have received a gift, perhaps at the time of her marriage to Samuel Prather, son of William Nathan and Martha Prather.  Prather.  (The two were first cousins).  Their children were William, John, Anne, Eleanor and  Thomas. Susannah died in 1790.

Jacob was born about 1732.  He married Elizabeth, possibly Soper.  Their known children are James, John Simpson, Andrew, Jacob, Elinor, and Betsey.  I'll write more of this family in my next post.  

John was born about 1740.  He appears to have been married twice.  His first wife was Sarah, possibly Crow, and his second wife was Dolly Hoskins.  Most if not all of his children would have been through his first wife, as the marriage to Dolly was in 1786 and John died in 1799, in Montgomery County, Maryland.  Again, the children's names are taken from his will.  They are Mary, Eleanor, James, Sarah, Nancy, John, Elizabeth, Joshua, Isaac, Rebekah, and Ann.  

The final son was Thomas, born about 1744.  He married Elizabeth Crow, the daughter of James and Mary Farmer Crow.  They had a son, James Thomas, and perhaps another son, Thomas Jackson.  Thomas himself is said to have died in 1840 in Henry County, Kentucky, or perhaps much earlier in Montgomery County, Maryland.  1840 would have given Thomas quite a long life, and it is possible that this information is for another of the many men by the name of Thomas Aldridge.

So here it is, the last of the very nebulous and mostly undocumented information about the John (not Simpson) Aldridge in the line I am following.  It's been fascinating because some of the names I've come across are surnames that are brick walls for me in my own family-Dunn, Mackall, and one in another of husband's lines, Farmer.  Are there clues here?  Time will tell.  Hopefully time will also allow us to document and either confirm or deny the possible information presented here.  The next family I write of will be on firmer ground than these posts have been.

 

The family of Thomas Aldridge 1680-1726

 Once again, these Aldridge families confound me.  Records seem to be available for the children's births, but not much else.  We don't know when some of them died, or even whether they lived past adulthood.  They are sometimes confused with other people of the same name.  Since I am unable to go physically to Anne Arundel County, Maryland, to research this family, and since on line records appear to be scarce, I am at the mercy of those who have gone before me.  I'm happy to report what they've reported, but can make no comments as to sources or documentation.  

Thomas Aldridge was the son of Nicholas and Martha Besson Aldridge.  He was born in 1680 and died in 1726.  His wife was Elizabeth Purdy, the daughter of John and Mary (maiden name unknown) Purdy.  Within ten years of their 1703 marriage, both of their fathers were deceased.  Thomas, as the oldest Aldridge son, would have inherited land from his father, and Elizabeth may have inherited money, personal property, or/and slaves from her father, although I have not been able to locate a will or estate record for him.  The Aldridge family were slaveholders, although I am not sure which generation was the first to hold them.  

Thomas and Elizabeth are believed to have had seven children, although only two have much documentation.  There are wildly varying death dates for some, as noted here.  

The first born was Edmond, sometimes referred to as Edward.  He was born in 1702 and died in 1703, or possibly 1784.  If he survived to adulthood, his wife's name was Rebecca, but I think this is likely a different Edmond.

Rebecca was born in 1705 and that is all that I have been able to learn of her.

Thomas was born in 1709 and died in 1751.  His wife may have been Mary Hook.  His children are Joseph, William, Thomas, Solomon (may be Thomas Solomon, and Mary.  

John was born in 1712 and died in 1751 in Prince Georges County.  His wife was Elinor, possibly Watkins.  Their children are John, Jacob, Thomas, and Susannah.  I will follow this family in my next post.  

Then two daughters named Martha were born.  The first lived from 1717 to 1719.  The second was born and died in 1723.

The final child was Elizabeth, also born in 1723 and reported to have lived a good long life, dying in 1814.  I have not been able to document her further, so possibly she married and stayed out of court records, or possibly she did not marry and was simply invisible to the world.  

Thomas and Elizabeth likely had just three children who lived to adulthood.  My heart goes out to Elizabeth, who certainly would have faced great sorrows in her days.  She is reported to have died in 1723, about the time that Martha and Elizabeth, who may have been twins, were born.  It was a hard life for her.  Thomas survived until 1726, when he would have left three young orphans, the oldest about 15.  So far, I've not been able to determine where the children lived as they grew into adulthood, but their grandparents were already gone.  Perhaps there are court records that would give us that information, apparently available only locally.

The family of Nicholas Aldridge 1653-1708

 Reader, beware!  I am not 100% sure of some of the "information" in this post because I can't find documentation, or/and there is conflicting information.  Apparently the Aldridge family used some of the same names over and over, and that is at least part of the reason for the confusion.  I will try to point out when I think the "information" needs further research and evaluation, but I am posting it because maybe someone else working on the family, now or in the future, will be able to find records proving or disproving what I am writing here.  

Nicholas Aldridge may or may not be the immigrant ancestor for this family.  It is possible that a potential great grandfather, Robert Aldridge, made it to Virginia in time to be killed in a native American uprising in about 1624.  If Robert does belong in this family, he left no descendants in North America, so I'm starting with Nicholas, who was born probably in 1653 (christened December 28, 1653) in Hampshire, England.  Or at least, he was christened there.  He married Martha Besson, the daughter of Thomas and Hester Talbot Besson about 1680 in Anne Arundel County, Maryland, and he stayed there for the rest of his life, dying on or just before November 21, 1708.  

Nicholas and Martha had 12 children together, although sadly, several died young.  All but the last two seem to have stayed in Anne Arundel County their whole lives, although there are one or two for whom a death date and location are not clear.  

Thomas was their first child, born in 1680.  He married Elizabeth Purdy, the daughter of John and Mary (Lane or Reed, not sure which was her maiden name) Purdy.  Their children are Edmond, Rebecca, Thomas, John, two Marthas, and Elizabeth.  Follow these names and you will understand how there could be confusion about which Aldridge belonged in which family.  Thomas died in 1726.  I will write more of this family in a future post. 

Anne was born in 1684 (notice there is a time gap here in which another child could have been born, or at least another pregnancy begun) and married Richard Richardson, the son of Mary and Mary Stockett Richardson.  There seems to be agreement that their children were Mary, Dinah, and Thomas, with the possibility of Anne and Lydia also being their daughters.  

Martha was probably named for her mother.  She was born in 1686 and died the following year. Life was hard for infants and children and she would not be the last of the Aldridge children to die before reaching adulthood.

John was born in 1688 and married Elinor, sometimes seen as Susanna Elinor, Jones, the daughter of Thomas and Martha Davis Jones.  He was a ship builder, but I don't know whether this was a full time occupation or not.  Their children included Thomas, John, Susannah, William, and possibly Jacob.   He died in or before 1750.

Joan or Joane was born in 1689.  She is confusing because some sites say she died in 1696, and some have her living long enough to marry not one, but two, husbands.  The possible husbands are John Watts and Thomas Disney.  One daughter, Mary, is attributed to the Disney marriage, if in fact there was one, and Joan probably died shortly after.  I do not consider this paragraph to be reliable information, so read it with a grain of salt.

Sydney was born in 1693.  He died in either 1702 or 1750, take your pick.  I have not been able to find any records for him as an adult so I suspect the 1702 date is closer to correct, but the search for records is continuing.

Next was Jane, born and died in 1696.  I think there may be some confusion with Joane, above, which is why Joane would be shown with a 1696 death date even though she apparently married about 1717.  

Nicholas was born in 1698 and died in 1758.  He married Ursula Grimes, the daughter of John and Elizabeth Foster Grimes.  Their children are Frances, William, Nicholas, Zachariah, Ann, Sarah, Susannah, Mary, and John.

Then there were three sons named William.  William 1 was born in 1700 and died sometime before July, 1702, when another son William was born.  He also died in 1702.  

Finally, there was a son William who was born in 1703 and died in North Carolina in 1786.  His wife's name is unknown.  Elizabeth Symons in frequently given as his wife, but that is now in dispute.  His children were William, Samuel, Joseph, Nicholas, Nathaniel, Sylvania, Nathan, and James.  It is thought that he went to Sandy Creek off the Deep River in North Carolina about 1755, where he was able to purchase land.

The last known child was James, who was born in 1706 and died about 1775 in North Carolina, although I have not found anything to document the death date.  He married Mary Gassaway, the daughter of Nicholas and Elizabeth Hawkins Gassaway.  I find many of the same names listed for the children of James as I did for William, so I'm not sure whether the families simply shared names, or whether the parents are perhaps misidentified.  James and Mary's children are listed as William, Joseph, Elinor, Sylvania, Nicholas, Samuel, Nathaniel, James, and John or Jones.

Nicholas and Martha had a large family, but they also had many sorrows as so many of their children died young.  I haven't researched the grandchildren, but it is likely, given the times, that some of them also died young.  We know that some of the grandchildren served in the Revolutionary War.  Nicholas and Martha are important to the Aldridge family and to the country. 

The family of Joseph Brown Eddy 1803-1876

 This is the last of my posts about the Eddy family.  I've learned a lot from this brief study, and there is surely much more to be learned.  Joseph is the last of our ancestors named Eddy, but his family left its mark on our country and his descendants all have interesting stories of their own.  

I've written about Joseph Eddy earlier.  He married Susan Lamphire, the daughter of James and Hannah Eames Lamphire, in Richfield, Otsego County, New York.  He and Susan had at least ten children and the children lived in New York, Michigan, Illinois, Iowa, and California.  There are stories of bravery and sadness hidden within the family, and I'm happy to have the chance to introduce you to some of these people, who would be our great great grand uncles and aunts.  If you want to trace the children further, please be aware that most of the names I am using are their given names, but they frequently used their middle names or a nickname rather than the given name, so they should be lots of "fun" to research.

If we can believe the dates (sometimes they are off by a year), Permelia was their first born child, and was born in 1826, before her parents married on July 1, 1827.  This leaves open the possibility that Joseph had an earlier wife, or at least an earlier child, but for our purposes now, Permelia was their child.  She died, unmarried as far as I can learn, in 1847, at Ellington, Chautauqua County, New York.  

George was the next child born, in 1829.  He married Hannah, sometimes seen as Fanny, Hart, whose parents are unknown to me.  Their children are Permelia, Frank, Ellen, George, another George, Etta, Isabella, Sarah, John Adelbert (known as Delbert), Jesse or Jessie, and John.  George died in 1905 in Holland, Ottawa County, Michigan.

Sarah was born in 1832.  She married William S Nichols, the son of Henry and (unknown) Nichols, and the couple stayed in Ellington, New York.  Their children are Mary Jane, Eveline, Adele, Ida, Ada, Eugenie, William, and John. Sarah died in 1913.

Susan was the next born, in 1835.  She married Hiram Stanard, son of Libbeus and Luceba Fay Stanard.  Their children are Susie, Seba, Louis, and Esther, and I will write more of this family in the future.  

Mary Ann was born in 1838.  She married Sheldon P Eddy, the son of George W and Betsy Wheeler Eddy, and yes, they were first cousins, both being grandchildren of Enos and Deborah Paine Eddy.  Their children are Bertha, Cora, Perry, Wallace, Willard, Herbert, Nina, and Ralph.  She died in 1898 in Sublette, Lee County, Illinois.

Joseph Eddy was born in 1841. He married Elizabeth "Betsey" Eddy, the daughter of George and Betsey Wheeler Eddy.  Yes, they were not only first cousins, but the siblings Mary Ann (above) and Joseph married siblings Sheldon and Betsey.  Their children must have done a lot of head scratching before they figured out all their relationships!  Joseph's children are George, Joseph, Clarence, Fred, and Richard.  Joseph served in the Civil War and was discharged due to disability in 1862 at Corinth, Mississippi. I don't know whether he was injured in the battle there which had taken place just a few days earlier, or whether he was one of the many who were discharged due to camp illnesses such as dysentery.  He lived in Lee County, Illinois, and then in South Dakota before moving to Los Angeles, California.  There he married Hannah Ellen Daulton in 1918, and died in 1921.  

Washington was born in 1845 and married Mary Cannon, the daughter of Timothy and Phoebe Skinner Cannon.  Their children are Leon, Aleda, Sarah, and Nellie.  Washington also served in the Civil War, and was captured by the Confederates.  Two different prison camps are listed as having held him, and I have been unable to determine whether he was held at one and then transferred to the other, or whether one of those named was incorrect.  However, there is a possibility, at least, that he was held at Andersonville, and at another camp in Alabama.  Washington died in 1925 in South Dakota.

Thomas was born in 1847 or 1848 and married Minnie Lodama Clark, the daughter of Andrew and Harriet Long Clark.  Their children are Hattie, Laroy, Susie, Nellie, and Florence.  He died in 1930 in Atlantic, Cass County, Iowa.  

Amelia may have been born in New York or she may have been born in Illinois, or she may have been born en route.  She was born in 1850, and died in 1862.

The last known child was Garrett, born in 1853 in Lee County, Illinois.  He married Elizabeth Cummings, the daughter of Jessee and Ormazinda McCall Cummings.  Their children are Jesse, James, Louis Elwin, Delbert, Mable, Harry, and Grace.  Garrett died in 1914 in Lee County, Illinois.

Joseph and Susan had reason to be proud of the family they raised.  From New York to California, they raised families, served their country, and were solid citizens of their communities.  There is a long Eddy heritage to remember, for those of us who are their descendants.

The family of Enos Eddy 1774-1817

Don't pay too much attention to the death date I've given Enos here.  It may or may not be correct.  Most trees show him as dying in 1817 in Darien, New York.  His last child, who could of course have been born after his father had died, was botn March 29, 1818.  I have been unable to locate him in the 1820 or 1830 census so it's possible that the 1817 death date is correct; I just can't verify it.

However, we do know that Enos was the son of Enos and Sarah (possibly Brown but not proven) Eddy and was born in 1774 in Glocester, Rhode Island.  He married Deborah Paine, possibly the daughter of Nathan and Lillis Winsor Paine, in 1794, still in Glocester.  And let us take a moment to thank Deborah, who gave birth to 14 children in 24 years, with only one dying young.  She must have been quite a woman, devoted to caring for her family.  Their children were:

Chloe, born in 1792, who married Joel Wheelock, possibly the son of Joel Wheelock.  Their children are Mariam, Chloe, Charity, Sophronia, Joel, Lewis, Mary, and Almira.  Chloe died in 1861 in Lockport, Niagara, New York.

Lydia, born in 1794, married Orman Pray, the son of Rev. John and Deborah Wade Pray.  Their children are Cornelia, Lucy, Deborah, Almon, Ambrose, Mary, and Eddy.  She died in 1877 in Noble County, Indiana.

Enos (the first of two by that name) was born probably in early 1796, and died in infancy.

Rachel was born in 1797 and married John Grant Huit, Hulett, or Hewitt, likely the son of Thomas and Grace Hall Hewett.  Their children are Mercy, John, Caroline, Enos, Charles, and Julius.  She died in 1875 in Onandaga County, New York.  

Next was Enos, again, born in 1799.  He married Miranda Stannard, the daughter of Ezra and Margaret Norton Stannard, and if there's a connection to our Stannard families I haven't yet found it.  Their children are Roswell, Sheldon, Betsey (also seen as Elizabeth), Nathan, Almanda, Thomas, John, Almira, and James. Enos died in 1871 in Mansfield, New York.   

After Enos, in 1801, came Deborah, who married first Nathan Angell, son of Jesse and Amey Hammond Angell.  She was his second wife.  She had at least one and possibly more children with him, Nathan and perhaps Walter.  Nathan probably died in the early 1820s.  She then married Josiah Hollister, the son of Josiah and Naomi Tredwell Hollister.  They had several children together, including Sarah, Amanda and Tylphia (?).  Deborah died in 1850 in Mansfield, New York.  

Their next child was Joseph Brown Eddy, who was born in 1803 and married Susan Lamphire, the daughter of James and Hannah Eames Lamphire.  Their children were Permelia, George, Sarah, Susan, Mary Ann, Joseph, Washington, Thomas, Amelia, and Garrett.  Joseph died in 1876 in Lee Center, Lee County, Illinois, and I will write more of this family in my next post.  

Nathan was the next born, in 1805.  His first marriage was to Laura Stannard, whom I am not able to identify further, She may or may not be part of our Stannard family, but one of their children married John Stannard, who was a grandson of our Libbeus Stannard so the connections are there.  Their children were Sylvia, Sheldon, Enos, Laura, Mary, and Abbie.  After Laura died in 1843, he married Relief Farnham, daughter of Moses and Submit Faulkner Farnham.  Their children were Florence, Arthur, Lydia, and Edwin.  After the death of Relief, Nathan married Susan Olds, whom I'm unable to further identify.  They had no children.  Nathan died in 1896 at Sheffield, Bureau County, Illinois.

Sarah was born in 1806.  She married John Woodward, son of John and Sarah Galloway Woodward.  Their children were Sarah, Mary, Daniel, Lillis, Maria, Harriet, Henry, and Agnella.   She died in 1871 in Ross Township, Kalamazoo, Michigan.

Lillis was born in 1809 or possibly 1807. She married Hiram Sutton, the son of Jeremiah and Hanny Smalley Sutton.  Their children are Betsey or Elizabeth, Albert, Jane, another Albert, Henry, and Hannah.  She died in 1865 near Richmond, Macomb County, Michigan.

Next came George, born in 1810.  He married Betsy Wheeler, the daughter of Uzziah and Azubah Banks Wheeler.  Their children are Alonzo, George, Betsey, Sheldon, Hiram, Harriet, Charles, Julia, Sarah, Ezra, Washington, Leonia, Ella, and Enos.  George died in 1882 at Amboy, Lee County, Illinois.

John was born in 1813.  He married Nancy Wheeler, who was likely a sister to Betsy, mentioned above. (I have found alternate parents for Nancy, but the location doesn't make sense).  Their children are Levi, George, Nathan, Albert, Adaline, John, Sylviette, Achsa, Mary, Reuben, and Ida.  John died in 1878 at Elk Falls, Elk, Kansas.  This is the first of this Eddy family to have crossed the Mississippi, or at least the first who died west of the river.

Almira was born in 1815.  She married Lowell Hulett, the son of Oliver and Elizabeth Ames Hulett.  Their children are Allen, Ellen, Edwin, Thoren, Hattie, and Lynn.  Almira died in 1887.  Some sites say she died in Massachusetts but her gravestone is at Augusta, Kalamazoo, Michigan.  

The last child was Stephen, born in 1818, a few months after Enos died.  He married Olive Hulda Williams, the daughter of William and Mary (unknown) Williams.  They had just two known children, Lucius and George.  He enlisted in the Civil War in 1861 and died in December of 1862 in a Union hospital at Niagara, Buffalo, New York, of chronic dysentery.  He would have been 43 years old when he enlisted, which was somewhat above the usual age, and he was a private.  

103 grandchildren, more or less! I think that's the largest number I've found for any family I've researched thus far.  Enos, in his short life, and Deborah left a legacy of Eddy family members scattered from New York to Michigan, Illinois, and Kansas, with many of their grandchildren serving in the Civil War.  

 

 

The family of Enos Eddy died 1782

 Enos Eddy was born in Glocester, Rhode Island, the son of Elisha and Sarah Phetteplace Eddy.  I have no record of a birth date but it was probably early in the 1740s.  He died in 1782 so his was not a long life, and he lived it entirely in Glocester.  His wife was Sarah Brown, who was believed to be the daughter of Othniel and Deborah Burlingham Brown, but that identification may not be correct.  More research needs to be done. 

Enos and Sarah had four known children after they married in 1761.  The only one with what seems to be a firm birth date is George, who was born in 1765.  George married an unidentified Chloe and was in Hawley, Massachusetts (at the time known as Plantation Number 7) by 1788, where he owned an ironworks.  By 1800 he was in Ulster County, New York.   There are four persons in the household young enough to be his children, plus a male and female who were in the 16-25 year age group.  There was also a slave.  In 1810, the children had aged 10 years and there are still 2 males and a female in the 26-44 age bracket who are unaccounted for.  There were also four slaves.  The 1820 census has him in Eddyville, New York (near Kingston) which was named in his honor.  He was the owner of a cotton mill and a saw mill there, and had two slaves living in his household.  He died in 1827.  The names of his children are Stephen, who died young, Margaret, George, and Mary, and possibly a Nancy.  It's possible there were more children.

Enos Eddy was their next son.  He was not 21 when his father Enos died, and probably was born about 1768-1770.  He married Deborah Paine (Payne) and they had as many as 13 children.  I will follow this family in my next blog post.

Then there were two daughters, about whom little is known.  Sarah was under 18 in 1782, and married a Mr. Green, so far not further identified.  I show both a marriage and a death date for her of 1802, but no documentation for either, so I'm not confident with either "fact".  

There was also a daughter, Rebecca, who was born before 1774 and was included in her father's 1782 will.  Many of the web sites show Rebecca as having died in 1775, so either the early death date is incorrect, or there were two daughters named Rebecca.  

This is what I've been able to learn about the family of Enos and Sarah, the most undocumented Eddy family I've found. It is possible there were more children but if so, their lives seem to be unrecorded. I certainly hope there is someone out there who knows more, and I hope they will contact me!
