Family Stories and Genealogy

Our ancestors would have gathered around this 1702 hearth in the Pidcock-Simpson-Thompson-Neeley House.
The first Pidcock family Reunion was held in 1913. Our centennial celebration at the 2013 Reunion will include issuing an updated version of "History of the Pidcock Family and Association"
The book is a roadmap of descent from Jonathan Pidcock (011) 1729-1812. We are entitled to join D.A.R., S.A.R., C.A.R., Colonial Dames because of Jonathan's service to the Revolutionary cause. However to join these organizations, one must PROVE one's lineage. Pidcock family members are now contributing scans of family Bibles which will be accessible from the top link to the left of this page.

2009 Plan for Updating the Genealogy in “History of the Pidcock Family and Association
The “History of the Pidcock Family and Association” is specific to the descendants of Jonathan Pidcock (1729-1812) believed to be the grandson of John Pidcock who settled along the Delaware in 1678. Contact descendants with whom the Association has stayed in touch.
Here is a three-phase plan for collecting the data we need to update the 1992 edition of the book:
- Everyone at the May 2009 Reunion agreed to compile information for their branch. Your branch may not have been represented at that reunion, so we need YOUR help. Please do not assume we have contact information (email or snail mail) for your parents, children, siblings and cousins, ASK THEM.
This information is chiefly:
- – Name of family member;
- – Date of birth;
- – Married (name of spouse & date of wedding);
- – Children (names & dates of birth); and
- – Date of death.
Send email with updates to pidcock2013 at yahoo.com.
- 2010 We added a Facebook page to reach more Pidcocks. We still need ideas on how to publicize this page.
-
May 14, 2011: In addition to updates to the genealogy, we are also looking for family stories that can be included in the revision. These stories need to have a factual basis and can deal with long-ago Pidcocks or contemporary family members who have relevant and interesting narratives that are worthy of sharing.
******************************* On this site, some family history recounted at Reunions can be found on the Reunion Family Events & Places page.

The Pidcock/Pitcock DNA Project web site tells a great deal of family history while describing the mysteries it is trying to solve.

The family genealogy book, "History of the Pidcock Family and Association", published 1992, gives detailed information about early Pidcocks. We have sold all the copies and are working on a revised version for our centennial Reunion 2013.
The book records the following information: Names of self, spouse, parents, siblings and children. Dates of births, marriages and deaths.
