Information on the EDEY family

......The name "Luther Edey" appears on a petition for a grant of land in
Tunbridge Gore. This petition, dated Feb. 5, 1780, is printed in Mary
Green Nye's "State Papers of Vermont Vol. V Petitions for Land" on pages
138-9, "Petitions of John Hutchinson et al for Tunbridge Gore". The State
of Vermont "Rolls of Soldiers in the Revolutionary War 1775 to 1785" has
the following:

page 191 Luther Ede in Capt. Joseph Parkhurst's Co., Aug. 9 - 12, 1780.

Received from J.H. Edey (Harry) copies of correspondence which he has
received from Angus Gilday. This first letter is dated 28 April, 1986.

JANE, MOSES & SAMUEL EDEY. WHO WHERE THEIR PARENTS? FACTS AND
SPECULATION. WERE THEY LUTHER AND MARY?

From family records, and early research recorded by P.M.O. Evans in "The
Wrights" - Moses Edey came to Hull in 1805 from Randolph, Vermont. Jane,
Samuel and their mother followed in 1806.

Jane married Edmund Chamberlin. Moses married Edmund's sister Elizabeth.
Samuel married Abigail Wright, daughter of Thomas and niece of Philemon.

Recent research by Harry Edey (JHE), Patrick M.O. Evans (PMOE) and Joan
and Angus Gilday (JEG & AMG) has uncovered much of their background.

PMOE found a gravestone in Bellevue Cemetery, Aylmer, Quebec, in 1982 -
MARY, wife of LUTHER EDEY died November 23, 1842 aged 86 Hence, she was
born c. 1756.

JHE reported in "Who Was Wd. Edey?" in late 1983 that Vital Records of
Vermont report the Edey births, and show the father as Wd. Edey. His
further research brought him to the original records in Randolph VT.

JEG & AMG visited Randolph in April, 1986, and located the same page 74 in
Vol A. of Virths, Deaths, Marriages 1766 - 1868 for the Town of Randolph.
The index listing of Edey - Widdow was also noted.

Comment - There can no longer be any question of the letters W. meaning
anything other than widow. JHE speculatd that the entries were made in
1800 to 1803, while AMG leans toward 1798 or slightly earlier. The main
advantage of establishing this date would be to narrow down the period
during which the father died. To father Samuel, he must have been alive
past mid - 1785. He presumably was dead when Moses became the ward of
Evans in March 1798.

JHE found an entry in the Accelerated Indexing System which mentioned
Edey, Luther, and Tunbridge Gore. JEG found the attached in the
Montpelier library. (Note - the footnote is in error - the burning of
Royalton was in 1780, not 1777).

AMG found the following items in the same library.

In the "Historical Souvenir of Randolph, Vermont", Nickerson & Cox, 1895 -
"Oct. 16, 1780...Col. Horton's raid from Canada and the Lake up the
Winooski, up the Jail Branch, down the first branch of the White River,
and the devastation of Caughnawaga Indians in warpaint...These Indians had
got seven Randolph settlers, - except Edward Evans, Mr. Eddy, Israel
Kibbee, the two Blodgetts, James & Hanry, who had gon to Dresden on
Sunday, and young Zadock Steele, who was asleep in the shanty of his
father's lot in the north part of the town, and Asa Edgerton, who was in
Bennington asking for a charter for the town.

On page 2 of the same book - "William Evans...came with his wife, and a
brother Edward Evans". John Evans is also mentioned in the book.

JHE reported finding the Probate Records of the District of Randolph (copy
from his letter attached). JEG & AMG found the same record in Chelsea,
VT, where the Probate Court is located.

Comment - it is interesting that Evans brothers were chosen, more than 4
years apart, as guardians of Moses & Samuel.

Back to the library - the following was found in the census of 1800. Heads
of Families - Vermont - Randolph, Orange County.

Polly Edy 1 female of 26 & under 45, 1 female under 10 (Note: Jane would
be 19 or 20 when this census was taken)

Edward Evans 1 male under 10, 1 male of 10, under 16, 1 male of 16,
under 26, 1 male of 45 & over. 1 female under 10, 1 female of 10, under
16, 1 female of 16, and under 26, 1 female of 45 & over.

John Evans 1 male under 10, 1 male 10, under 16, 2 males 16, under 25, 1
male 45 & over. 1 female under 10, 1 female 45 & over. (Comment in the
margin by JHE - I am not too sure of his conclusions here.

Comment - Polly is a very common nickname for Mary. It would appear that
Samuel was already living with John Evans, even though the adoption was
not official until 1802.

Still in the library - The Vermont Revolutionary Muster Rolls show a
Luther Edey (or Ede, Eddy) in several Randolph companies. One roll, for
1781, show him in Newbury. This is also recorded in the "History of
Newbury, Vermont", and a copy of the page is attached. Note he was in the
same company as Nathaniel Chamberlin and several of Nathaniel's brothers.

The library also contained a book called "The Eddy Family in America". At
first this did not seem to offer a good clue. (JHE referred to this book,
and the author's sugestion that the father may have been Othniel Eddey.)
AMG found in the Supplement October 1940 an interesting addition. The two
relevant pages are attached.

Comment - Luther Eddy, a son of Elkanah and Patience (Cole) Eddy, B. Mar.
7, 1754, would be of suitable age to marry Mary "Polly", b. c. 1756.

Mary entrusted her sons to Edward & John Evans. Could she be their
sister?

Conclusion - There can be little doubt that Jane, Moses & Samuel were the
children of Luther & Mary "Polly" Edey.

Research now should concentrate on the suggestions immediately above and
any other leads to the originas of Luther & Mary.

JANE, MOSES & SAMUEL EDEY - WERE THEIR PARENTS LUTHER & MARY EDEY?

Research by Patrick M.O. Evans, John Henry Edey, Joan E.G. Gilday & Angus
M. Gilday points strongly to Luther & Mary as parents of the three Edeys
who came to Hull early in the 19th. century........

In the international Genealogical Index, Angus Gilday found the following,
all recorded in Plainfield Twp., Windham City, Connecticut:

William Evans Born 10 Oct. 1731 son of Edward Evans/Jannet Edward Evans
Born 03 Mar 1750 son of William Evens/Jannet William Evens Born 31 Jan
1752 son of William Evens/Jannet Mary Evens Born 12 April 1756 daughter of
William Evens/Jannet John Evens Born 17 Nov. 1754 son of Edward Evens/Mary

(There were other children of both William & Edward recorded)

At this point, it is hard to escape the conclusion that the mother of
Jane, Moses & Samuel was Mary Evens (Evans), wife of Luther Edey (Eddy),
daughter of William & Jannet Evens, and probably grand-daughter of William
& Jane Evans, and that she arranged for her brother Edward and cousin John
Evens to be guardians of her sons. (note by J.H. Edey - quite possible and
an interesting speculation. I wouldn't state it quite so strongly as he
has done.)

Angus Gilday found in the 1940 Supplement of "The Eddy Family in America",
by Ruth S.D. Eddey: - Luther Eddy, son of Elkanah & Patience (Cole) Eddy,
born March 7, 1754. (This family lived in Swansea and Warren, Rhode
Island.) The Eddy/Cole marriage was found recorded in the I.G.I. and the
birth of a daughter Amey, but no Luther, and no marriage of Luther & Mary.

Luther married Evens\Evans, Mary (Polly) in 1779. Mary was born on 12 Apr 1756 in Plainfield Twshp, Connecticut; died on 23 Nov 1842 in Aylmer, Quebec. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Early History of Haldimand and District Gives Interesting Details

COBOURG. - Reuben Bedell opened a store at or near Slay Bay in 1797. Very early in the 19 century, Sheriff Ruttan opened a store at Grafton. This building is still standing on the property owned by Mrs. Thos. Heenan, and is used as a driving shed. At the time of the war of 1812-15 this was the only store in the Township of Haldimand. It was a departmental store on a small scale. Sheriff Ruttan kept a small stock of dry goods. It is said that he used to exchange a yard of calico for a bushel of wheat. He also carried a stock of rum, as was the custom, which he retailed at one dollar a quart. Upon a hill about a mile east of Benlock, in Haldimand Township, the late Baige M. Eddy in the year 1810 built a frame barn. It is said that he went to Kingston on horseback to get the nails, paid a quarter of a pound, put half in each end of a bag, put them across his horse and returned in four days, averaging forty five miles per day. Grafton was first called Haldimand Post Office, and there was quite a settlement in the vicinity of that place, before there were many homes erected where the town of Cobourg now stands.

Bayes married Honeywell, Asenieth in USA. Asenieth (daughter of Honeywell, Isaiah and Hutchinson, Martha) was born on 16 Jun 1785 in Saratoga, New York; died on 24 Feb 1876 in Grafton, Ontario, Canada; was buried in Fairview Cemetery, Ontario, canada. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

with their mother, came in the dead of winter all the way from Vermont in
a sled drawn by an ox. Some of the family claim that they were not so
poor, and that they had two oxen. What's the odds! An ox more or less
makes little difference a century afterward.

Jane married Edmund Chamberlain, son of Nathaniel.

The Edeys have become connected with nearly every prominent family in this

Dated April 22, 1857

Moses Edey of Aylmer Circuit

Died on the seventh day of February last, at his residence, near the
Village of Aylmer, in the seventy fourth year of his age, brother Moses
Edey, one of the oldest and most esteemed members of our church on this
Circuit. He was a native of Vermont in the United States. He emigrated
to Eastern Canada, and settled in the township of Hull, fifty-two years
ago where he continued to resided in the midst of a numerous and
respectable family, until the close of his life. During the early part of
his life, he manifested an entire indifference to the claims of the
Christian religion. A few years after locating in this country, he was
brought to feel His obligations to love and serve his Divine Redeemer,
while suffering from sickness, through the conversation and prayers of a
pious friend. It was not, however, until sometime after this event, that
he surrendered himself wholly to the service of God. In 1827, he sought
and obtained salvation, through faith in the atonement of Christ, and
connected himself with the Wesleyan Methodist Church. In which he held an
official position and in whose institutions he remained unswervingly
attached, until God removed him to the Church triumphant.

Brother Edey possessed an unblemished Christian character. To a
profession of piety, he added a general deportment that constrained all
who knew him to acknowledge the genuiness of his religious experience. The
joys of his piety were never ecstatic, but always earnest, never
enthusiastic, but always consistent. His advancement in holiness was not
the most rapid; but it was increasing. His course through the world was
as the path of the just, which shineth more and more unto the perfect
day." By brother Edey's death, the community has lost an influential and
valuable member; the church a wise councillor and liberal supporter; and a
family a tender husband and an affectionate parent.

Moses married Chamberlain, Senior Elizabeth (Sr.) in 1805. Elizabeth was born on 7 Jul 1790; died in 1829 in Aylmer, Quebec. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Eddy, Ira I , (Index to Census Microfilm). Living in 1848 in Clarke Township, Ontario, Canada.



In 1825 Ira is noted in the Clarke Township Census. The family would have arrived in the area just prior to this as they are not found in any early records or census information prior to 1825. They first settled in the Antioch District near Clarke and then found there way to Clarke Township.

There are five people listed as members of the family in the household.

Old Orono Stones Cemetery was moved to Lawrence Presbyterian Cemetery Lot 21 Conc 5 in Clarke Township. The tombstones were placed onto concrete cairns.
Many stones are broken due to neglect and vandalism. Ira and Zoa's stone most likely sunk far down into the earth as it is broken just below his name.

Ira married Kilburn, Zoe about 1820 in USA. Zoe was born in 1797 in USA; died on 18 Dec 1868 in Orono, Clarke Township, Durham County, Ontario, Canada; was buried in Old Orono Stones Cemetery, Clarke Township, Durham County, Ontario, Canada. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

From the Mower County, MN Transcript: September 15, 1880
(Died September 12, 1880)

An Aged Couple Burned to Death last Sunday Morning.

Mr. and Mrs. William Purdy last Saturday night retired in usual health
with an apparently fair prospect of months and perhaps years being yet
added to their allotted time, though they were both past the "three
score years and ten." How little this aged couple realized last
Saturday evening, as they sat smoking their pipes and pleasantly
chatting with a neighbor, about half past eight, that this was their
last night on earth! That when the morning light should welcome in
the near Sabbath, that they would both be done with all life's wearying
cares and trials, and they entered into the new life,---and now the
end had come. Fifty seven years they had borne life's burdens together,
and now they were together to lay them down, and, leaning upon each
other, hand in hand as it were, walk out into the great mystery.

Sunday morning, about four o'clock, the little house near the south
bridge in this city, where this couple lived alone, was discovered in
flames. Those first reaching the house burst in the door, but too
late---as the whole inside of the dwelling was a mass of flame, and in
a moment the floors and roof had fallen into the cellar. At first no
one seemed to think but that the old people were safely outside. But
it was not long before the dreadful truth that they were buried in the
burning ruins, settled upon all, and the firemen took immediate action
to recover the bodies. They were found side by side in the exact locality
of their bed, so the conclusion was soon reached that they were suffocated,
and had made no effort to escape. The bodies were drawn from the ruins,
a disfigured and sickening sight.

Coroner Hollister was immediately notified, a jury subpoenaed, and a
verdict rendered at 2 o'clock Sunday that the death of the aged people
was caused by suffocation.

Mr. and Mrs. Purdy were born in Canada, were aged seventy-eight and
seventy-nine years, the wife being one year the younger. They had ten
children, three living in Minnesota---two daughters, Mrs. John Eddy
and Mrs. Lafayette Pierce, living about three miles this side of Lyle,
and a daughter residing in Austin, Mrs. Alfred Church. Mrs. Thomas Varco,
of the Varco station, was a sister of Mrs. Purdy. The remains were tak
to Varco and buried last Sunday afternoon, where a brother of Mrs. Purdy
is also buried. The funeral services will take place at Enterprise scho
house, next Sunday at 2 o'clock PM, Rev. J.W. Eldridge, of this city,
officiating.

[Submitter notes: Special thanks to Donna Mattson for this transcript.
Mr. and Mrs. Purdy were married on December 26, 1825 in Haldimand Twp,
Northumberland County, Ontario, Canada. Amy Eddy (Mrs. Purdy) (1802-188
is believed to be the daughter of Bayes Manchester Eddy (1771-1849)
and Asenieth Honeywell (1785-1876) and directly descends from William Eddy
(1558-1616), Vicar of Cranbrook.]

In the year 1849 the township bought of WILLIAM H. LEONARD one acre in the southeast corner of the north eighth of the west half southwest quarter of section 22, and one acre of GERMAIN ST. JOHN in the northeast corner of the south five-eighth of the same lot, for a burying-ground. It was surveyed and platted into burial-lots by L. L. ARMSTRONG, surveyor, on the 13th, 14th, and 15th days of August, 1849.

The first interment in the new burying-ground was that of HARDEN EDDY. There were a number of bodies removed that had been buried on farms before the ground was laid out, who were reinterred in it, but none, we believe, before MR. EDDY.

Harden married Purdy, Nancy on 9 Apr 1815 in Haldimand, Ontario, Canada. Nancy was born on 1 Jun 1797; died on 5 Sep 1878 in Haldimand, Ontario Canada; was buried in Eddystone, Ontario, Canada. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
