Re: John, Elkanah and Elizabeth ma/ri searching their relationship
I have never seen the original, but this deed is referenced in Ruth Story Devereux Eddy’s "The Eddy Family in America: A Genealogy", p. 96, where it is paraphrased/quoted as follows:
John Bullock and Hannah Bullock, my wife, Elizabeth Eddy, spinster, Elkanah Bullock and Sarah Bullock, my wife, all of Swansea, sold "to our brother Caleb Eddy of Swansea… all belonging to our honored father Samuel." Dated May 18, 1744, Warren, R. I.
The clear implication of this deed is that Hannah (Eddy) Bullock, Elizabeth Eddy, Sarah (Eddy) Bullock, and Caleb Eddy were all siblings, the children of Samuel Eddy. Samuel Eddy and children appear in the vital records of Swansea, Bristol, MA, as follows:
Samuel Eddy and Sarai Eastabrook, were married april ye 10:1707
Caleb the Son of Samuel Eddy and Sarah his wife Was Born march ye :2:1708/9
Elisabeth ye Daughter of Samuel Eddy and Sarah his Wife was Born march ye 26:1711
Sarah the Daughter of Samuel Eddy and Sarah his wife was Born December ye :8:1713
Hannah ye Daughter of Samuel Eddy and of Sarah his wife was Born march the 14:1715/16
Samuel Eddy Departed this Life the 27: day of march in the year 1744 being in sixty ninth year of his age
Vital records of Swansea, Bristol, MA show the 01 Jan 1740 marriage of Elkanah Bullock and Sarah Eddy, both of Swansea. I am unaware of a marriage record for John Bullock and Hannah Eddy.
Vital records of Swansea, Bristol, MA show the 18 Jun 1730 marriage of Caleb Eddy and Mehetable Luther.
John and Elkanah Bullock were the sons of Daniel Bullock and Mary Salisbury. Daniel Bullock was the son of Samuel Bullock and Thankful Rouse. Samuel Eddy was the son of Caleb Eddy and Elizabeth Bullock, sister to Samuel Bullock. Thus, Samuel and Daniel were first cousins, while John Bullock and his wife Hannah Eddy, and Elkanah Bullock and his wife Sarah Eddy, were each second cousins.
