Saturday, October 14 at 2:00 pm Zoom Reunion
The Pidcock Family Association has scheduled an hour-long Zoom reunion for the afternoon of Saturday, October 14. You’re invited to take part.
“The event will allow Pidcocks and Pidcock descendants from throughout the United States and around the world to connect via the Internet,” said Alan Pidcock, the association president.
Joy Allingham, a Pidcock descendant who lives in Washington Crossing, Pa., will conduct the session.
People interested in participating are asked to send their email addresses to the association at pidcock2013@yahoo.com. That way, we’ll be able to send them the link they’ll need to join the Zoom meeting.
Participants may log in between 1:45 and 2 p.m., and the hour-long session will begin promptly at 2 p.m., Eastern Daylight Time.
The virtual reunions that we held in 2020 and 2021 attracted some 40 Pidcocks and Pidcock descendants from a dozen states, England and New Zealand.
Established in 1913, the association had its 111th in-person reunion last August along Pidcock Creek near New Hope, Pennsylvania. It was held close to the site of a Native American village in which John Pidcock took up residence in the 1680s. Nearly 50 people attended.

For many Pidcocks, a family reunion just isn’t complete without a visit to the (Pidcock)-Thompson-Neely House.
Some time prior to 1680, John Pidcock established a trading post on the western shore of the Delaware, on a 505 acre tract of land called by the Lenape Indians Win-Na-Haw-Caw-Chunk. The trading post appears on a 1680 map and William Penn acknowledged and honored Pidcock’s prior claim to this land, part of Pennsylvania, granted to Penn by King Charles II in 1681.
Sunlight outlines the oldest portion of the house, a one room cabin with hearth dating to 1702. Architectural evidence indicates the cabin was originally log or clapboard.
