John Eddy (1597-1684) and his brother, Samuel (1608-1688), two of the children of William Eddy (ca.1550-1616), emigrated from England to Plymouth, Massachusetts in 1630. John settled in Watertown, Massachusetts in 1633; Samuel lived in Plymouth until he retired to live with his sons in Middleborough and Swansea. Descendants and relatives lived in New England, New York, Michigan, Illinois and elsewhere. Some descendants immigrated to Ontario and elsewhere in Canada.
This history is enriched with personal recollections and reminiscences. Its pages are filled with the names of those individuals who settled, or helped in some way to establish the County, as well as those who are remembered for various other reasons. The fifty-four illustrations include Wise County’s commonwealth attorneys, from the first (1856) to the twenty-first (1935).
