Notes for JAMES EDDY:
James Eddey-Eldest Son of John of Woodbridge
James' will located in the NJ will section in Trenton clearly spells his name with the extra e. See footnote 8
for the text and the exact spellings.
James Eddy, son of John, inherited land from his father in Woodbridge and died there. He and his wife are
buried in the old Presbyterian Church burial ground (near the train station) in Metuchen, NJ. He is thought to
have been a farmer in his early years, but then became a town official (like his youngest brother Samuel did in
the Marsh Creek settlement) later on. His wife was from Scotland, as was his mother in law. The Scottish
connections are quite strong. They were members of the Upper Presbyterian church in Woodbridge. William
Simonson Eddy states at one point that they were Quakers!
John William Edie writes in his genealogy (without references however) that James Eddy had frequent contact
with the Edies living in the Marsh Creek settlement in PA. James is listed several times in the book
"Woodbridge and Vicinity; The Story of a New Jersey Township", by Rev Joseph W. Dally. He is a
moderator for the Freeholders' meetings. He is listed as keeping the records when the clerk, T. Gage dies.
The only other item known about James is that he was a private in the Revolutionary War. He is listed on the
DAR burial plaque in the burial ground in Metuchen, NJ as being a private in the Middlesex County Militia.
We do not have much information about his wife, Mary Gach except that she has 11 children and is thought
to be a Quaker by William Simonson Eddy. John of Woodbridge has 12 children, 10 from Elizabeth his first
wife and two from Janet his second wife. Mary's mother's maiden name is Bloodgood. There are many
Bloodgoods buried where she is buried.

Notes for GAVIN/GAWEN EDDY:
Gayon or Gavin Eddy, Third Oldest son of John of Woodbridge
The following was taken from the Heady Family Newsletter. It is included in this document because it
provides some information on Gavin, the third oldest son of John of Woodbridge.
"The stream now known as Tonoloway Creek, but called 'Konolawa' by the Indians living along its bank and
'The Conolloways' by the white settlers, follows a meandering course through the southern part of present Foulton
(sic) county, Pennsylvania, crossing the boundary line into Maryland about three miles before it joins the
Potomac at a point just below that river's northernmost bend. The Big and Little Tonoloway Settlements lay
about five miles north of the Potomac along branches of Tonoloway Creek and immediately west of the large and
small basins named, respectively, the Great (Big) Cove and Little Cove. These settlements had been founded by a
few Scotch-Irish Immigrants, at least one Welch family (that of Evan Shelby), and a band of Monmouth and
Middlesex county, New Jersey families, which included those of Moses Graham, William Linn, Joseph Warford,
Adam Stiger, John Melott, Benjamin Truas, Elias, Richard, Jeremiah Stillwell, Thomas Heady, GAVIN EDDY,
Samuel Hedden the Coombs, Belieus, Applegates and, no doubt, others. Whether the Monmouth and Middlesex
county families came as a unit or over a period of several years, is not known, but they were all there by 1765 or
earlier.
The precise date of the first settlement on the Tonoloways is difficult to establish. Some historians claim that
settlers arrived as early as 1731, but others assert that 1741 was a more realistic date. The STILLWELL
FAMILY HISTORY states that one source places Elias Stillwell, husband of Meriam Eddy and the older brother
of Gavin Eddy, on the Tonoloways as early as 1735. Although that seems a bit early to us, other families can be
proved to have been in the area by that time, so it may be true that he was there that early. The settlers purchased
the land on which they settled from the Indians, and reportedly, had little trouble with them until 1750, in which
year the Indians appealed to the proprietory government of Pennsylvania for the return of their lands, alledging
they had been defrauded by a few trinkets and other items of little value, and drawing attention to the fact that
settlement west of the Kittantinny mountains was a violation of the treaty in effect at that time. At length, the
Pennsylvania authorities responded by sending out magistrates, accompanied by troops, to drive the settlers off
their lands in the Great Cove. Most of the settlers pleaded guilty of settling on unpurchased lands, paid their fines
and returned to their lands as soon as the magistrates left. Since the Little Cove and the Big and Little
Tonoloways were on the borders of Maryland 'the magistrates declined going there, and departed for their homes.'
After Braddock's defeat at Pittsburg in 1755, the Indians began raiding throughout the frontiers. They
revenged themselves on the Great Cove on the first of November 1755, and raided the Tonoloways on the 28th of
January 1756. According to the PENNSYLVANIA GAZETTE issue of February 12, 1756, 'they killed and
scalped James Leaton, Catherine Stillwell and one of her children were killed and scalped, and two others carried
off; one about eight, the other three years old. Her husband was at a neighbor's house when his wife was attacked
and from thence got into Coom's fort'. Catherine Stillwell was the wife of Richard Stillwell. There was also a
great loss of cattle, and horses and many houses were burned.
Apparently, about this time there was some attempt by Maryland, as well, to drive the settlers off the
Tonoloways. A petition dated September 29, 1755, was sent to Governor Morris from the settlers setting forth
that 'these few lines to inform you we are very much imposed upon by ye Sherfe of frederick county in meryland
in Comeing to take our Lands from us by a Maryland Right which we have had surveyed by Mr. William Lyon
Surveyor under Mr John Armstrong surveyor for Cumberland County in pensylvania Last Spring....said Sherive
peter butler has got surveyed by bringing a Captain and a parcel of souldars to Gard him while he was do
doing....Threats were made by him that in two or three weeks he would come back and take all the land from the
Forks of Tonolaways Crick down to ye mouth thereof, and all goods, chattels, horses, or anything he could find.'
The scanty Baptist church records are the best records we have of the members of the Tonoloway Settlement.
Adjacent to the property then owned by ELIAS STILLWELL is the old Tonoloway Baptist Church which was
attended by most of the settlers of British extraction and some others. Although the tombstones in its churchyard
are its only extant records, they are often the means of connecting the pioneers buried there with their past.
Unfortunately for us, there are no Heady stones, but many of the Stillwells and Truaxs still stand. Thus in their
desire for freedom, privacy and an autogenous government, the settlers left few records of their early settlement
along the Tonoloways. Once the Mason-Dixon line was established and the settlers were sure to which state they
belonged, it became desirable for them to insure their claims to the land they had occupied for ten to thirty years.
From the beginning 'with the exception of a brief interval from 1761 to 1768, the system of obtaining title to land
in Pennsylvania was by warrant. Under this system the land applied for must be paid in advance, which, even at
the low price of land, many were not able to do. To meet this difficulty and to encourage rapid settlement and
3
improvement, the proprietaries, in 1761, established a system of taking land on 'application' by which land was
sold on indefinite credit, the purchase money running at low rate of interest, and to be a lien on the land. This
system remained in vogue until 1769' and under it Thomas Heady and most of the other settlers obtained title to
the land they occupied. That accounts for the fact that the warreant and patent were not issued on Thomas
Heady's 117 acres until it fell into the hands of William Bishop and Bishop, in 1836, paid $26.00 to Pennsylvania
for the purchase and interest."

3. MARIEM/MERIAM2 EDDY (JOHN1) was born January 25, 1708/09 in Woodbridge, NJ, and died October 19,
1803 in Hancock, MD. She married ELIAS STILLWELL. He was born Abt. 1708 in NJ, and died February 04,
1792 in Hancock, MD.
Notes for MARIEM/MERIAM EDDY:
Meriam (Maryan) Eddy: Secondest oldest daughter of John of Woodbridge
Meriam Eddy, second daughter of John Eddy and Elizabeth Edwards of Woodbridge, New Jersey, was born
in Woodbridge, New Jersey January 29, 1708. She married Elias Stillwell, of English extraction, who was born
in NJ in 1708 and died near Hancock, Maryland. Meriam survived her husband and died at the same place,
October 19, 1803, aged 95 years. Both are buried in the Tonoloway Baptist Cemetery, near Hancock, Maryland.
After marriage, Meriam moves with her husband to Maryland. They think that it is in Maryland but are
surprised to find out that when the Mason Dixon Line is marked, they are north of the border. Meriam is not that
far away from her father and her youngest brothers who make up some of the settlers of the Marsh Creek Area. It
is very important to point out that even though they move from NJ, they are actually moving close to some of her
family. A quick look at a Maryland map demonstrates the Marsh Creek settlement being less than 100 miles from
Hancock, Maryland. And the Marsh Creek settlement borders Frederick County. Also in the same settlement is
her younger brother, Gavin! Her husband, Elias Stillwell, was one of the organizers of the Tonoloway Baptist
Church which was built in 1752 (and was baptized there in 1753 by the Rev. Samuel Heaton.)
Both Meriam and her husband's tombstones were standing in the church graveyard as of 1938. The epitaph
on Meriam's headstone reads (read) as follows: 'My loving mate I did survive, and, true, my age was great, I lived
the years of ninety-five, but here, behold my fate.' Her marker is classic for the time period.

She was a Scotch woman who was a great doctress, and who judging by her handwriting was a woman of
education and culture.

May 2001) I went to the cemetery myself in July 2002 the marker is very faded but can still be read fairly well.
I found the following inscription in a book entitled: "The History of Captain Nicholas Stillwell son of Lieutenant
Nicholas Stillwell and his Descendants" by John E. Stillwell, M.D., published in 1930, Mariam Stillwell departed
this life Oct. 19, 1803 aged 95 years My loving mate I did survive And true my age was great, I lived the years of
95 But here behold my fate.
