Hi Alice and Everyone, The following was a query sent in by Landon C. Bell in 1930 to the "Virginia Magazine of History and Biography." "ELDRIDGE Three sisters, Emeline Thomas Eldridge, Lucilla Eldridge and Mary Eldridge, married as follows: Emeline Thomas Eldridge (b. Sept. 23, 1813, d. Feb. 22, 1843), married July 30, 1833, John Covington Hardy, of Lunenburg and Dinwidde Counties. Lucilla Eldridge married Richard Edward Thornton, of Sussex County, Virginia. Mary Eldridge married William Thornton, of Sussex County, Virginia. Wanted to know who were the parents of these sisters, and whether they had brothers and other sisters. Landon C. Bell, Columbus, Ohio." Source: Virginia Magazine of History and Biography, Volume 38, 3 July 1930 In my notes I have John Covington Hardy (1798-1873) is the son of Charles (1772-1830 of Lunenburg County, VA) and Dorothy Bruce Hardy, and grandson of Covington Hardy and Catherine Buford. Does anyone have any further information on these three sisters? Specifically trying to connect a Eldridge/Buford connection to the 1850/1860 Morehouse, Louisiana Census. THANKS AGAIN, Donna
Hi Donna, I think I can claim the following: 1870 CALDWELL, LA Page 127 Eldridge, Wm.J. - 21, male, white, Farmer, born in AR Angelina- 16, female, white, Keeps, House, born in LA (?) Alex-18, male, black, Laborer, born in AR ________ This is my husband's gg-grandfather, William Jefferson Eldridge and his wife Angelina ("Angia") Walker. I know nothing further about William other than he died in Jackson Parish, LA and had a son, John Thomas Eldridge (b. 27AUG 1879 or !880, d. 10 MARCH 1972, buried in the Masonic Cemetery, Crowville, Franklin Parish, LA) John Thomas m.

Am hoping someone can shed some light on JAMES ELDRIDGE (b. 1760-1770 and d. 1830-1840 Lee Co., VA) and wife Margaret (unknown). They are thought to be the parents of MOSES (b. 1781-1790. The 1850 Harlan Co., KY census, states he was born Surrey Co., NC); JOHN (b. 1790-1800 and d. 1835-1840 Lee Co., VA) who married Nancy (unknown); JESSE (b. 1800-1810 and died after 1830 where he was found in the Lee Co., VA census); and EPHRAHAM (b. ca 1815 VA and died after 1850 where he was found in the Lee Co., VA census). Would like to learn more about JAMES. Might he have served in the Rev. War? If so, from what state? VA, NC or some where else? I know there were many Eldridges up in MD. Finding a Will or Probate records might prove useful. I descend from John. Sincerely, Mary in CA
Samuel Eldridge and Margaret Wilder were parents to a daughter May Nora Eldridge born ca 1920 in VA. Does anyone know the name of May's husband? He was a McGeorge. May is last known to be in Hulen, KY as of last year. Thanks, Mary

Pages 92-93 _________________________________________________________________ Ship: SEA BIRD Type: Steamer Arrived: August 20, 1852 From: San Diego, California Captain: Haley Passage: 4 days from San diego, California. This vessel has on board a number of passengers (224) of the disabled steamer "Pioneer". On her passage around Cape Horn, and while in the Bay of Talcahuano coaling, the "Pioneer" dragged her anchors in a gale of wind and ran on a reef, causing a leak. The leak increased on the passage to Panama to such an extent as to require pumps to be kept in constant operation. The vessel, however, proceeded to San Juan del sur, Nicaragua, taking on board at that place a full compliment of passengers. After departing from Acapulco, Mexico the vessel ran out of coal and two of the flanges of her propeller had been carried away. In this crippled condition-without coal, and without propelling power, the "Pioneer" was overtaken by a heavy Northwest gale. The steamer took on water so fast that it was necessary for the preservation of lives to run the ship into shelter. She accordingly put into St. Simon's Bay (St. Simons Bay), about 200 miles south of San Francisco. To prevent her sinking the "Pioneer" was run on shore. A messenger was dispatched to San Luis Obispo, California to intercept steamers. The "Sea Bird" fortunately passed the area on August 18, 1852 and a contract was made to take on board a load of the crippled steamer's passengers, with the intention of returning for the balance. The following deaths occurred on board the "Pioneer" up to the point of her disablement": April 30, 1852 - William Thompson, of New York City May 2, 1852 - George Bradley, of New Jersey, of fever May 4, 1852 - James Lawson of Ohio A.

M. J. ELDREDGE - July 10, 1852 - Panama > San Francisco, California Ship: TENNESSEE Type: Steamship Arrived: July 10, 1852 Captain: George Totten Passage: 16 days from Panama, via Acapulco, Mexico and San Diego, California. Departed Panama on June 24, 1852. Arrived at Acapulco on June 30th. Took on board coal, provisions and 104 destitute passengers rom "Russel", brig "Amphytrite" and brig "Isabella Hermosa"*. Sailed from Acapulco at midnight on July 1, 1852. On July 3rd, at 10:30AM, spoke and boarded steamer "Golden Gate", about 60 miles to the north and west of Cape Corrientas. On July 6th, spoke steamer "Pacific", in lat. 27 15N., long. 115 45 W. Arrived in San Diego at 5:00AM on July 8th, exchanged mails and sailed at 9:30AM. The following deaths took place during the passage: June 30 - Solomon Keller, aged 2 years, 4 months July 3 - Andrew Ring, Rhinebeck, Duchess County, N.Y., aged 32 years July 3 - Herman Kurfman, of New York, aged 37 years July 4 - Joseph Bliss, of New York, aged 31 years July 4 - Charles Lopez, Suffolk County, Long Island, New York, aged 38 years July 5 - Benjamin Ward, Newburgh, New York, aged 36 years July 7 - Jno. Andrews, of Niagara, Canada West, aged 54 years July 8 - M. J. Clanton, of New Orleans, Louisiana, aged 26 years July 8 - Mrs. Nancy Moody, Cincinnati, Ohio, aged 30 years July 9 - Jno. Purcey, from Ireland, aged 30 years July 9 - Julius Poor, of New Orleans, Louisiana, aged 9 years There was an unusual amount of deaths on board the "Tennesse". In fact, a larger mortality than on all her previous trips coombined. A rumor circulated that the deaths were due to holera. However, the ship surgeon, Dr. __ McNaughtonm stated this was incorrect. In every instance the patients had been attacked with fever, accompanied with dysentery. Many were passengers, taken on board from Acapulco, who were actually worn down by destitution and want. The captain of the "Tennessee" took on board one hundred and four of the passengers who had been thrown into the port of Acapulco and were unable to proceed any farther. These passengers, without funds, were transported to San Francisco free of charge. Cargo: 419 packages of unspecified goods. Passengers: D. M. Harden, G. Ware, R. W.

CAPTAIN A. ELDRIDGE - Arrived San Francisco - August 18, 1852 Ship: GOLDEN GATE Type: Steamer From: Panama Captain: C. P. Patterson, U.S.N. Passage: 13 days from Panama, via way ports. Arrived Acapulco, Mexico at 4:00AM on August 10, 1852 and departed same evening. Arrived San Diego, California on August 16, 1852 and departed same day. Found dense fog off the heads of San Francisco and could not run in until it lifted. The below death took place on board the "Golden Gate": August 1, 1852 - Lieut. ___ Gore, 4th Infantry Regiment, U.S. Army, at Taboga Isl. This vessel brings intelligence that the schooner "Emily", forty days from Mazatlan with ninety passengers, was reported as being some twenty miles to the leeward of San Diego, California, destitute of water and provisions. The steamer "Ohio" was to be sent to her relief. The "Golden Gate" has on board the 4th Regiment of U.S. Infantry, under command of Colonel __ De Bonneville, consisting of 434 privates. The officers of the regiment are - Colonel ___ De Bonnerville, Colonel ___ Wright, Major ___ Alvord, Captain __ Wallen, lady and three children, Captain __ Grant, Captain __ McConnell, Lieutenant __ Underwood and lady, Lieutenant ___ Colllins and lady, Lieutenant __ Slaughter and lady, Lieutenants Montgomery, Jones, Russell, Scott, Withers, Bates, Morris, Hodges, Mr. __ Alvord and Mr. __ Camp. There are also twenty-one women and twenty children belonging to the soldiers of the regiment. The "Golden Gate" received the regiment passengers at Panama but was detained in departing for San Francisco. Eight-four of the troops died at Taboga, and the invalids were left at the island of Fleminco (Flamenco), in the Bay of Panama, in charge of Liets __ Boneycastle and __ Hunger, and Surgeon __ Tripler.* On July 17, 1852 the Golden Gate was in Panama and began to receive on board passengers ticketed for her, and oon the 20th about 650 members of the Regiment were also received. The remainder of the regiment, some 100 in number, with the sick and camp attendants, were received in course of the ensuing week, great delay having occurred in their march over the Isthums o Panama (see pages 72-73). On July 20, 1852, one of the soldiers died of cholerra, and a number of others were attacked, three more dying the suceeding night. The "Golden Gate" was immediately dispatched to Taboga Island to prevent the spread of disease. The sick were transferred to another vessel. this change was marked by beneficial effects. The number of passengers, including the troops, ticketed to go to San Francisco upon the "Golden Gate", being large, the steamship agent determined to dispatch two additional steamers, with such as preferred to go forward at once, and the "Columbia" sailed for San Francisco on July 26, 1852, followed by the "Unicorn" on July 27, 1852. After the sailing of the steamers, a change of weather unfortunately caused the cholera to reappear with increased severity, when, with the concurrence of Colonel De Bonneville, all the troops were landed upon Fleminco (Flemenco) Island.* Shortly after landing, 29 deaths occurred, confined to the troops, and 2 of the crew, not-withstanding which the passengers preferred to remain on board the ship. The ship was thoroughly fumigated for several days in succession. The health of those on shore improved rapidly and it was determined to receive on board 450 of those troops perfectly well, and to transfer the convalescent to the "Northerner", so soon as the state of health would safely admit their removal. On the passage up to San Francisco no symptom of cholera appeard on the "Golden Gate". The cause of the mortality was solely attributed to the exposure and imprudence of the troops, while marching over the Isthmus. Sixty-seven occurred of cholera, of which there were but two passengers, exclusive of the troops.* Cargo: 100 bags of U.S. Mail Passengers: J. Willets /sic/, J. Underhill, Dr. W. G. Deal, R.
