Caddy Family History

The following sketch on the origins of the Caddy family in Britain is taken from a letter from Arnold Caddy, written

from Chandpara Tylden, R.S.O., and Victoria, Australia on June 10, 1942 to Ralph Young, 52 Dundas Street,

Oakville, Ontario:

"My family hail from North Devon and are probably descendants of one John Cadio, or Cadition, of Dunsland, as

recorded in the Domesday Book published or compiled by order of William II (1087-1100). Our family pedigree is

recorded in Burkes Landed Gentry 1937 and starts with accuracy from Thomas Caddy, of Parkham about 1490. The

links between him and John Cadio are rather attenuated probably owing to the ravages of the Black Death and the

War of the Roses. Only the direct line is recorded in Burke's but there are plenty of collateral connections, which

could be unravelled.

My son John in 1935 made contact with my second cousin Edmund Caddy, in New York and my wife and I met him

in 1936 for the first time. Until then I had been unaware of his existence ...My brother, Adrien Caddy, 17 Upper

Wimpole St. London. W.1, in recent years found a portrait of one John Caddy of Huckland Brewer, N. Devon,

painted by Sir Godfrey Kneller, the Court painter of that time 1646-1723. He was arrayed in a wig and a blue silk

flowing robe but I have no idea of how he came to be painted or what he was doing in London in the time of William

III and Queen Anne.

In 1939, when my wife and I were passing through St. Louis, Missouri, we met another second cousin of mine, Dr.

Vincent Caddy, Professor of Pathology in Washington University, St. Louis, and he showed us a portrait of my

grandfather's brother William Edmund Caddy, of Great Torrington, N. Devon, painted by Sir Henry Raeburn

(1756-1823). Doubtless other portraits will come to light if this War permits.

The point of interest is the Coat of Arms of the Caddy family. The shield is the main thing, the crest and motto vary

with the individual wishes, but the emblazoning of the shield does not. In heraldic language the shield is 'Three piles

engrailed sable on a field Argent.'

When I visited Dunsland House near Holsworth, North Devon I have seen that shield carved in stone near an old

Norman archway. [Holsworth is about 4 miles east of Bude]

Mr. Dickinson, the present owner of Dunsland traces his pedigree back to John Cadio, through several failures of the

male line. He told me that William the Conqueror granted John Cadio Dunsland. The land was then in the

possession of one Ulric a Saxon who ordered John Cadio off the premises. A fight ensued and Ulric died and John

descendants wandered so far north..."

The following is taken from Dr. Gordon Roper's "Lieutenant- Colonel John Thomas Caddy His wife Hannah Godard

Caddy and their children":

"The Caddys of the Border Country [those of this account] may or may not have descended from the John Cadio

recorded in the Domesday Book. However, they had been long in the North. On the surname 'Cady' and its variants

in Scotland, the scholar of names George Black wrote:

and Thomas Cady was presbyter in Glasgow, 1440 (REG, 344). Peter Cady was burgess of Edinburgh 1484 (Ibid.

435) and three persons named Cadie are in the Edinburgh Marriage Register from 1606. John Kady was reidare at

town (Dysart, p. 39). Not likely, I think, to be a reduced form of MACADIE, q.v.'

It appears that Caddy may be a diminutive of Cade.

While awaiting for further evidence from Scotland, it seems there is reason to suppose that the principal subject of

these chronicles, John Thomas Caddy of the Royal Artillery, was a descendant of the Border County Caddys."

The first known descendant of the Caddy family, which is the subject of this compilation, was John Caddy, who died

in 1798.

1. John Caddy

d. 1798

The following information concerning John Caddy is taken from an as yet (1986) unpublished draft biography of

John Herbert Caddy (a grandson of John Caddy) written by Rev. Orlo Miller of London, Ontario:

"In the same year [1774] that the will of John Caddy, of County Cavan [in what is now the Republic of Ireland], was

probated, John Herbert's father, John Thomas Caddy, was born, providing us with the first firm date in the family's

genealogical record. John Thomas was the son of still another John Caddy, who in 1774, was a Lieutenant in the

British Army. Five years later, we find this young man, an officer in the Royal Corps of Engineers, serving in

Newfoundland, where a plaque was erected by the Provincial Government, on the Central Fire Station in St. John's,

recording his special connection with Newfoundland's capital city. That plaque reads: 'Old Government House - A

two-storey wooden dwelling house, designed by Lt. John Caddy, R.E. as a summer residence of the Governor of

Newfoundland was erected on this site in 1779. Repaired and enlarged in 1812, was found to be unfit for year-round

occupation after the appointment of Vice-Admiral Sir Francis Peckmore as the first resident governor in 1817, but it

continued to be the official home of the governor until the present Government House was completed in 1829.'

(Wording on plaque taken The Oldest City - The Story of St. John's Newfoundland, Erin, Ontario: Press Porophic,

1975.) John Caddy later achieved the rank of Captain. According to family lore, John Caddy was stationed at Court

when his son was born in 1774. The following is taken from Gordon Roper's "Lieutenant Colonel John Thomas

Caddy his wife Hannah Godard Caddy and their children":

"A shield emblazoned with 'three Pyles engrailed sable' is part of the story of Lieutenant Colonel John Caddy, Royal

Engineers. For his service in organising the Corps of Royal Engineers, Colonel John Caddy was presented with a

seal, bearing the Caddy coat of arms. Of this seal, his grandson Edward Christopher Caddy wrote:

'Caddy Coat of Arms and Crest. The seal from which this impression was taken was originally the property of

Colonel John Caddy, R.E. (Royal Engineers) having been presented to him by the Duke of Richmond in recognition

of services rendered in assisting him to organize the Corps of Royal Engineers. It came into the possession of his

eldest son, Colonel John T. Caddy, R.E. (sic). The seal then came into the possession of Edward C. Caddy, D.L.S. of

Cobourg to whom his father in 1849.’ gave it

The seal was given in 1897 to a son of Edward Caddy named Arthur E. Caddy. Mrs. Arthur Caddy gave the seal in

the summer of 1941 to Reid Caddy, who was a nephew of Arthur Caddy. In April, 1976, Reid Caddy gave the seal to

Frank E. Caddy, 745 West Creekside Drive, Houston, Texas, 77024.

Colonel John Caddy had the following children:

1. Francis Caddy 2-1

2. Sarah Caddy 2-2

3. John Thomas Caddy 2-3

d. 14 June, 1876, Peterborough, Ontario

Hannah Godard was the daughter of James Mason Godard and Hannah Godard. She was baptized at St. Mary's

Church in Rotherhithe. She is buried in the Littlelake Cemetery in Peterborough. J. M. Godard was a silent partner

in Lester and Morrough, St. Peter Street, Quebec, wine merchants and brewers. Their marriage record reads:

"John Thomas Caddy, Lieutenant in His Majesty's Royal Regiment of Artillery, single man aged twenty-four, was

married by License and by consent of parent to Hannah Goddard, spinster daughter of James Mason Goddard,

Brewer, of the City of Quebec, aged sixteen years, this twenty-ninth day of October in the year of Our Lord, one

Thousand, seven hundred and ninety-eight, by me Salter Jehosophat Mountain, Rector of the English Church at

Quebec. Witnesses: J.M. Goddard, father, H. Goddard, mother, J.M. Goddard, brother, W. Wulff."

The following information regarding John Thomas Caddy is taken from a book entitled John Herbert Caddy 1801 -

1887. (Smith, Frances. Kingston: Agnes Etherington Art Gallery, 1985.)

"John Thomas Caddy, of the Royal Regiment of Artillery, was wrecked off the coast of Newfoundland in the

transport Phillis in 1795/96, en route to a posting in Canada. He is reported to have moved about to Fort George,

Fort Amherst, Montreal, in his service, coming back most times to Quebec."

Captain Caddy and his family (then with four children) had moved to Amherstburg, Ontario, by 1807 where he and

his wife are recorded as sponsors at a baptism on 5 July. Caddy was appointed Deputy Quarter Master General at

Fort Malden on 3 October 1807. At some time during the war [of 1812] it is believed that Mrs. Caddy and the

children (then five) returned to Quebec. [It is contended that Captain Caddy was present at Waterloo with the Duke

of Wellington and that Captain Caddy's commanding officer was General Glasgow - compiler.] He was promoted to

the rank of Major in 1813.

There appears to be some evidence the Caddy family home [during the early 1820's] was in Duns, Berwickshire. The

will of ... Colonel John Thomas Caddy, dated 3 February, 1834, is written as 'residing in Duns, Berwickshire,'

although two of the executors appointed in the will lived in Canada; the third executor was Mrs. Caddy. Colonel

Caddy and his wife must have returned to Canada in 1834, where they settled in Douro Township, near

Peterborough."

Colonel Caddy took up 299 acres in Concession 4, lot 21 of the Douro Township, sometime in 1834. He cleared

about 30 acres. In 1846, he bought 8 plus acres from Samuel Strickland who had the adjacent 200 acres. Strickland's

sister, Catherine Parr Traill had settled 1833 just north of her brother Sam and the Moodies came in early 1834 just

north of the Traills. The Colonel probably died here. Colonel Caddy received his military education at the Royal

Military Academy in Woolwich, England. He was promoted to the rank of Captain in 1804. According to some

notes, which belonged to Francis William Caddy, a grandson of Colonel Caddy, Colonel Caddy was born in London,

England. According to those same notes, Hannah Godard's father was an official at a court in London at the time of

her birth. Colonel and Mrs. Caddy had 12 children:

b. 27 November, 1804

d. 25 January 1895, Hamilton, Ontario.

Georgiana Hamilton was the daughter of Colonel R. Hamilton of the Royal Engineers. The following is taken from

John Herbert Caddy 1801 - 1887: "The young John Herbert received his early education in the school at

Amherstburg and he would have been aware of the frontier situation of Fort Malden in the defences against the

United States after the War of 1812. In 1815 John Herbert, then age 14, was sent to England for military training at

the Royal Academy in Woolwich. He was appointed a Gentleman Cadet on 26 March 1816 and began training as an

engineer and cannoneer. John Herbert attained the age of 20 on 28 June 1821 after five years at the Academy and

qualified for a commission at a public examination. He would then have been required to spend a year in the Arsenal,

undergoing a practical course, to be followed by an examination 'in those practical branches of artillery, and those

reported to be sufficiently instructed shall be sent home to their friends, receiving their pay as cadets till there be

vacant positions for them.' The number of qualified but 'unemployed' cadets reached 100 by 1825, when twenty-eight

were promoted to the Artillery, John Herbert Caddy among them. There is no documentation covering the three years

or so (1822-25) during which Caddy was 'sent home.' awaiting a commission and receiving pay as a cadet of two

shillings a day. There appears to be some evidence that the Caddy family home was in Duns, Berwickshire.

John Herbert Caddy was commissioned as 2nd. Lieutenant, Royal Artillery, on 29 July, 1825 and was promoted to

1st Lieutenant on 31 December 1827. In November 1828, Lt. Caddy left for his first tour of duty in the West Indies,

serving with the 8th Company, 4th Battalion, and R.A.

Lt. Caddy is known to have acted as secretary to Colonel Blackwell at Tobago for a short time and in 1831 he was in

charge of a small detachment of his company there. At some time in 1832 Lt. Caddy was posted to the 7th

Company, 7th Battalion, R.A., at Barbados and in that year, or in 1833, returned to England for a period of leave

spent with his family at the Hamilton home in Woolwich. Caddy was transferred to St. Vincent in 1834, to Fort

Charlotte, where his wife Georgianna and daughter Anna joined him, daughter Elizabeth remaining in Woolwich

with her grandmother Hamilton. Caddy, his wife, and daughter Anna, remained at Fort Charlotte from 1834 until

they returned to Woolwich in July, 1837. After more than a year with his family in England, Caddy was posted to

the small Royal Artillery garrison in the British Honduras in December 1838 and almost immediately was appointed

harbour master of Belize, the capital and chief port. Caddy had been promoted to 2nd. Captain in August 1840 and

returned to England in 1841, to his family in Woolwich.

Captain Caddy is said to have been appointed to Malta in 1842 but exchanged that posting with another officer for

one to London, Canada West. The recent identification of [one of his paintings] ... to be of the harbour of Valletta,

Malta suggests that Caddy visited Malta before taking up his posting in London in 1842, but no further

documentation of this has yet emerged. His military service in London was brief as, rather than accept another tour

of duty in the West Indies, he decided to retire on half pay, effective 28 May 1844.

He acquired four parcels of land in what is now a central residential area of London in September1844 and added

holdings in other parts of the town. He was appointed engineer to the Town of London in January 1849 ... He is ...

recorded listed in the Canada Directory as a Land agent in London in 1851. About that time, however, he is said to

have moved with his family to Hamilton, having obtained a position in the engineering department of the Great

western Railway, which he held until about 1856. Certainly he appears in Hamilton directories from 1853 until his

death.

Page 5: Caddy Family History - Www.infoese.ca · Caddy Family History ... My son John in 1935 made contact with my second cousin Edmund Caddy, ... compiler.] He was promoted to

Caddy's output of sketches and drawings in Canada was prolific. Domiciled in Canada, Caddy began to take up

seriously his other career, that as an artist and teacher of drawing. He began to submit works to the Upper Canada

Provincial Exhibitions, one of the few outlets for artists at that time. In 1858, he entered in the Amateur Class and

received first and second prizes for Canadian landscapes. From 1859 to 1869 (except 1867) he entered in the

Professional Class and was a consistent prize-winner. He taught drawing and painting not only in private classes but

also at the Wesleyan Female College (later named the Hamilton Ladies College) which opened in September1861.

Caddy set up a studio in Hamilton for a few years in Wentworth Chambers, a commercial building at the corner of

James Street South and Main - a location only two blocks from his home at 22 Main West. The bush country in

Douro Township, on the east side of the Otonabee River and Lake Katchewanooka must have claimed John Herbert's

attention as his parents and various members of the family had settled there.

The tenor of life for Caddy in the last 25 years or so in Hamilton appears to have been uneventful - a period of quiet

devotion to his family and to his profession as artist and teacher."

Some additional information confirms that John Herbert Caddy spent about 8 months in St. Lucia in the West Indies

between September, 1833 and May, 1834. Joanna MacMicking, a descendant of Anna Joanna Caddy, a daughter of

John Herbert's, suggests that John Herbert received his early education in Sandwich near Amherstberg [present-day

Windsor, Ontario) at a school called "Pringle's School." Mrs. MacMicking notes, in a letter to Ethelwyn Pullen

written in 1985, "in my research ... it tells how John Herbert was educated at Sandwich at 'Pringle's School.' John

Herbert returned to visit the Askin Homestead [Anna Joanna Caddy married Alexander Henry Askin] 'Strabane'

located in what is now the east end of Windsor, 60 years after his school days. My father Erskine, was born in 1870

and was old enough to remember him. Anna would have been 45 years old then. I figured that John Herbert would

have been about 74. My grandfather Askin ... was a civil engineer and Caddy helped him in drafting and water

colour drawings."

John Herbert Caddy is now considered as an important Canadian artist of his time and he is the object of several

scholarly works including the aforementioned work by Frances K. Smith and Palenque: The Walker-Caddy

Expedition to the Ancient Maya City written by David M. Pendergast and published in 1967 by the University of

Oklahoma Press. John Herbert and Georgiana Caddy had eight children:

Captain Alured Caddy, West India Regiment, was garrisoned at St. John's Antigua, about 1830. He was on leave at

Duns, Berwickshire in September 1834. He was in Antigua in the spring of 1834 and was at that time a Captain in

the 95th Regiment. He eventually went to India in the service of the East India Co. He and Harriet had three

daughters:

1. Mary Hannah Caddy 4-9

m. George Bell Jr., 29 September 1834, Duns, Berwickshire.

George Bell, Jr. may have come from a community named Minewar. It is not known at time of writing where this

community is located. An assertion has been made that she also married a banker by the name of Garland from

Philadelphia but this has never been substantiated. She and George Bell had had three children. Details on this

m. Mary Anne Valentine Shairp, 9 May 1838, Peterborough, Ontario

b. Circa 1817, Stonehouse, Devon, England

d. May, 1862

There is some disagreement as to whether the wedding was on 19 April or 9 May, 1838. They were married at the

father of the bride's (Major Alex Shairp, R.M.) villa near Peterborough with Reverend C.T. Wade officiating. The

spelling of the last name of the bride may have been Shairpe, Sharp, Sharpe, or Shairp. George Caddy had settled in

Douro Township near Peterborough in approximately 1833. He owned roughly 100 acres and was said to have a one

and a half storey log home. From a publication entitled Through the Years at Douro, it was learned that he died as a

result of a fall from a wagon at the age of 59 years. He was buried on 9 August 1871, in the Churchyard, the Rev.

Mark Burnham officiating. Mary Anne Valentine Shairp was buried on 29 May 1862 in the Lakefield Cemetery, the

Rev. P.S. Warren officiating. The cause of death was disease of the heart. She was 45 years old at the time of death.

Two of George Wallace Caddy's descendants lived in San Diego, California. George and Mary Caddy had eight

children:

1. Eleanor Caddy 4-17

2. Emalie Caddy 4-18

b. 15 February 1835, Grafton, Ontario (Haldimand Township)

d. 23 March 1924, Cobourg, Ontario

Sarah Rogers was the daughter of James G. and Maria Rogers, of Grafton, Ontario. James G. Rogers was born on

August 4, 1805 and died on 27 November, 1874. Marie Rogers was born in August 1812, and died on April 17,

1856. Sarah Playter Rogers was born at "Homewood," her family home.

The following is derived from a section on Edward Caddy taken from a manuscript on the descendants of James G.

Rogers written by Robert J. Rogers of Saanichton, British Columbia as well as an unattributed biographic sketch

given to the compiler of this family history by Rhod Reiffenstein of Edmonton:

Edward Caddy was born in the City of Quebec on June 28th, 1815. His parents were John T. Caddy, a Colonel in the

Royal Artillery and his wife, Hannah Godard. He was the seventh child and fifth son of eleven children. At two years

of age he returned to England with his parents and remembered seeing the skeletons of the last pirates hung in

Page 7: Caddy Family History - Www.infoese.ca · Caddy Family History ... My son John in 1935 made contact with my second cousin Edmund Caddy, ... compiler.] He was promoted to

England hanging in chains at the Lands End. As a boy, he saw William the Fourth reviewing the troops at Woolwich

and the Duke of Wellington frequently. He received his primary education in England and Scotland and returned to

Canada in 1833. On this voyage he was shipwrecked off Cape Race, Newfoundland, losing all his possessions, a

rather remarkable coincidence as his father had been wrecked at the same place many years before. He settled at

what is now Lakefield, Ontario, his parents and other members of the family joining him there later. In 1838 he

returned to England for a visit, but was taken ill with smallpox about the time he disembarked. One passenger had

died on the vessel and the coffin containing the body was at the landing wharf, where it was passed by the other

passengers, no precautions being taken.

He passed through London on June 28th, 1838, this being the Coronation of Queen Victoria, but was too ill to

appreciate the festivities. He returned to Canada about a year later and decided to take up land surveying, and

became articled to John Reid of Peterborough. He passed his final examination on the 18th of December 1846 to

become a Provincial Land Surveyor (PLS). He then moved to Grafton, where he practiced his profession. In 1852, he

moved to Cobourg to survey the Cobourg-Peterborough Railroad project and opened a land office with two of his

brothers, Henry and James, in Peterborough. On October 23rd, 1856 he married Sarah P. Rogers of Grafton,

daughter of James G. Rogers. The presiding minister at the wedding was the Rev. John Wilson. Edward lived for a

time in Belleville and it was probably here that he met his wife. After their marriage, Edward built "Willobrook"

[referred to as Willowbank in other sources] in Hamilton Township, just east of Cobourg, and the couple moved into

their new home. The following pupils were articled to Edward Caddy during his career: C.F. Caddy, Campbellford;

Richard Brown, Cobourg, and E.J.A. Rogers, Denver, Colorado. In 1861 he prepared and published a large wall

map of Northumberland and Durham counties and in 1867 was commissioned to survey and map the town of

Cobourg. By 1871, Edward was a Civil Engineer and the census records of that year for the township of Hamilton

record his ownership of four acres of land. It was about this time that Caddy Street in the town of Peterborough was

named in recognition of his services in the surveying of the area. On 14 April 1872, Edward was commissioned a

Dominion Land Surveyor (DLS) and was sent by the Dominion Government to Fort Gary, Manitoba to survey in the

Red River District. He reached Fort Gary via steamer on the Red River from Grand Forks, the trip taking nine days.

He commenced his surveys about eighteen miles from Fort Garry, and afterwards made surveys at Fort Ellice,

Brandon, and other places. In 1879, he went with Sarah's brother, Robert Zacheus Rogers, on his expedition to

establish a settlement in the valley of the Souris River, North West Territory (later Manitoba). In 1879 and 1880,

Edward surveyed east of Brandon, in 1881 south of Moosomin, in 1882 east of Prince Albert, and in 1883 north-

west of Moosejaw. The surveys carried out by Mr. Caddy can be summarized as follows:

For the Provincial Government

10th Concession of Gramache, 1851

10th Concession of Haldimand, 1851

10th Concession of Gore of Murray, 1865

Reserves at Southhampton, 1875

Municipal Surveys Concession of Percy, 1874

For the Dominion Government Department of the Interior:

1872 and 1873 - North of Winnipeg

1879 and 1880 - East of Brandon

1881 - South and Southwest of Moosomin

1882 - East of Prince Albert

1883 - Northwest of Moose Jaw

Mr. Caddy never held any public position, being of a quiet retiring disposition. He was Conservative in politics and a

member of the Church of England. It was said of him by one of his friends, who knew him in the West, 'that he was

one of the pluckiest men for his age that he ever knew.'

Edward was an amateur painter, specialising in watercolours. He left some of these paintings to his daughter,

Minnie.

He died at Cobourg on December 26th, 1897, and was buried at St. George's Churchyard at Grafton, Ontario. Sarah

died at Willobrook in 1924, at the age of 89 after a long illness and was laid to rest beside Edward. The officiating

clergy for her funeral was the Reverend Canon Sawers, Rector of St. Peter's Church."

he was a farmer of Lot 13, 8th Concession of Haldimand Township. In a Cobourg newspaper on 6 February 1875,

the following appeared:

"A sale of capital farm stock, implements, and lumber and company will take place on the premises of Mr. James

Caddy Lot 13, 8th. Concession, Haldimand on Friday next 12 February. James Macdonald auctioneer."

He was confirmed at a St. George's Church (place unknown) in 1849. They had two children:

Cyprian and Emma Caddy are both buried in a small cemetery on Church Road in Campbellford, Ontario. Some

information indicates that Cyprian was christened on 3 December, 1825 at the St. Mary Magdalene Parish in

Woolwich. Emma Butler was the daughter of Charles Butler and, according to her wedding notice, she was at that

time from Cobourg, Ontario. According to the same wedding notice, Cyprian was living in Seymour, Ontario at the

Page 9: Caddy Family History - Www.infoese.ca · Caddy Family History ... My son John in 1935 made contact with my second cousin Edmund Caddy, ... compiler.] He was promoted to

time of the wedding. Both Cyprian and Emma are buried in Campbellford, Ontario. Charles Butler lived on a

property called Vale Farm in Cobourg. Cyprian may have been named for a friend of his father's named Cyprien

Bridges. Mrs. Ethelwyn Pullen of Oakville, Ontario, composed the following and centres on a passage taken from a

book entitled Roughing it in the Bush by Suzanna Moodie. The passage in the book recounts an incident in which

Cyprian plays a role:

"When I first read Suzanna's book years ago, I was not so interested in my great great grandfather's history as I am

now. So on re-reading the chapter 'The Walk to Drummer,' I realise who the characters are. The walk was to rescue

an abandoned Army officer's wife, who, they hear was practically starving to death with about 6 children, north of

Drummer, in newly opened bush, called the 'English Lines.' It was a more than twenty mile walk there and back in

deep snow, over fallen trees, streams, below zero temperature, etc. The two women in long flowing skirts - no ski

pants, no skis, nor even snow shoes, which is surprising! They got to the Caddy's house as they were having

breakfast, so joined them in that. Then, their youngest son 'C' (Cyprian) decided to accompany the group on the walk

to help them. He was a great help. He was born in 1825, so in 1839 he would have been 14. Then, when the group

got back to the beaver meadow just as night was closing in, there awaiting them were 'Henry and James C' (she

actually used the names of the twins). At that time they would have been age 21. It would seem that the 7 children

younger than Hannah had immigrated with them to Canada in 1834. Henry and James were awaiting them there 'with

the ox sleigh to meet us at the edge of the bush. Never was splendid equipage greeted with such delight. Emelia and

I, now fairly exhausted with fatigue, scrambled onto it, and lying down on the straw which covered the bottom of the

rude vehicle, we drew the Buffalo robes over our faces, and actually slept soundly until we reached Colonel C.'s

hospitable door.'

'An excellent supper of hot fish and fried venison was smoking on the table, with other good cheer, to which we did

ample justice. I, for one, was never so hungry in my life. We had fasted for twelve hours, and that on an intensely

cold day, and had walked during that time upwards of twenty miles. But a blessing followed it.'

'It was midnight when Emelia and I reached my humble abode, our good friends the oxen being again put in

requisition to carry us there. Emelia went immediately to bed, from which she was unable to rise for several days. I

immediately wrote Moodie on account of the scene I had witnessed. And he raised a subscription among the officers

of the Regiment for the poor lady and her children, which amounted to 40 dollars. Emelia lost no time in reporting to

her friends in Peterborough, and before a week had passed away, Mrs. N. and her children were removed thither by

several benevolent friends in the place. A neat cottage was hired for her.'

And I will end that part of the walk to Drummer there."

The following is taken from Page 47-48 of Reflections, a history of Campbellford published in the centennial year

of the town, 1976:

"The Rev. Mr. Bowers later left Cobourg and moved to Seymour, becoming the first resident Anglican clergyman in

the Township. He resided in a log house provided by Mr. and Mrs. Henry Bonnycastle, south of and across the road

from their own residence in Seymour West. It was a very commodious house for those days, being 36 by 42 feet,

containing a hall and four rooms with closets on the ground floor, and an upstairs. It had a veranda or stoop in front

and a large French window at the back. It was surrounded by a grove of acacia trees and was called 'The Acacias.' It

was built as a wedding present for Eleanor Rowed upon her marriage to Captain Henry Bonnycastle, after the close

of the Rebellion of 1837 in which he served under his father, Sir Richard Henry Bonnycastle. It was sometimes

called 'Bridal Lodge' on account of its being the first house of so many brides in early days. Besides Mrs.

Bonnycastle, Mrs. Bowers came as a bride, and later years it was the first home of Mrs. and Mrs. Cyprian Caddy.

Cyprian Caddy was the provincial land surveyor who surveyed or layed out Campbellford; Frank Street being named

from their son who was born in the log house mentioned above to which ..."

The following is an obituary for Emma Butler, which appeared in the Campbellford newspaper:

"EMMA BUTLER - Wife of Mr. C.F. Caddy, of Campbellford, will no longer lend cheer to the associations of earth,

as she has been called to the better land. She was taken ill with pneumonia only six days before her death, which

took place on Wednesday of last week. The deceased was a native of London, England, and on arriving in this

country she and her husband took up their residence in Cobourg, and from there they moved to Campbellford where

they have resided continuously for the past 40 years. Her husband and one son, Frank Caddy, survive her, the latter

having returned home from Texas the day before his mother became ill. Mrs. Caddy was a bright, intelligent,

Christian woman whose generosity and kindness will be remembered long in love. Of her, it may be said, 'she wore

the white flower of a pure life.' The English Church of which she was a member, has lost a good friend. The Record

in his Parish Monthly, referring to her death says: 'The Church loses one of its brightest, the gentlest, and busiest of

Page 10: Caddy Family History - Www.infoese.ca · Caddy Family History ... My son John in 1935 made contact with my second cousin Edmund Caddy, ... compiler.] He was promoted to

her workers. Almost half the contents of the missionary bale was the work of her clever mind and active fingers; all

done so unassumingly, and only what had been her custom for years. She has gone to that 'Garden of Paradise'

where her passion for flowers will have the fullest satisfaction.' Mrs. Caddy was 76 years of age. Her remains were

interred on Friday afternoon in Christ Church Cemetery."

Cyprian Francis Caddy was a Dominion Land Surveyor and living in Campbellford, Ontario at the time of the 1881

Canadian Census. He and his wife had one son:

1. Francis William Caddy 4-36

4-1 Elizabeth Mary Ann (Minnie) Caddy (John Herbert, John Thomas, John)

b. Woolwich, England in 1828 or 1829

d. 8 August 1903, Hamilton, Ontario

school for 30 years in Hamilton, Ontario.

d. 15 March, 1925

m. Alexander Henry Askin, 4 September, 1862

b. 25 March, 1831

d. 10 May, 1923

Anna Joanna Caddy was christened on the 24th of April 1833, in the St. Mary Magdalene Parish, Woolwich Kent

England. His wife called Alexander Askin Alec but he was also known by the name of 'Sandy.' She was at the time

of her marriage a resident of Hamilton, Ontario. Alexander Askin was a Civil Engineer and had been at one time an

officer in the 13th Battalion in Hamilton. The original Askin homestead, "Strabane," was located in the present-day

East End of Windsor, Ontario. The original structure was built in 1802 when Col. John Askin moved to Canada from

Detroit at the close of the Revolutionary War. Col. Askin died there in 1815 and his son Charles inherited it.

Charles tore it down and rebuilt it in 1840 and Alexander Henry Askin inherited it at his death in 1865. It was finally

torn down in 1925. John Herbert Caddy helped Alexander Askin in drafting and watercolor paintings, since

Alexander Askin was also an amateur artist. They had four children. Details on this couple and their descendants are

in a separate document on the Askin family.

m. Frances Catherine (Fanny) Roe, 1872

d. 13 April 1925

Frances Roe was the daughter of John Ardagh Roe of St. Thomas and London, Ontario. The following information

concerning John St. Vincent Caddy is taken from a brief unattributed biography: "John St. Vincent Caddy was

brought up in the expectation that he would join the army, and he was always a soldier at heart. He became

apprenticed to Robert Jones, P.L.S., of Sarnia, and passed his final examination on October 6th, 1866. He was

employed on the Great Western Railway, and in 1870 was Divisional Engineer at St. Thomas. He was also employed

on the Hamilton and North Western Railway surveys, and on construction.

In 1879 he went to Port Arthur, where he was employed on the Canadian Pacific Railway, then under construction by

the Federal Government, and in the following year succeeded Samuel Hazelwood as District Engineer of Port Arthur

to Eagle Lake - and on the removal of Mr. W.T. Jennings to British Columbia, his district

Page 11: Caddy Family History - Www.infoese.ca · Caddy Family History ... My son John in 1935 made contact with my second cousin Edmund Caddy, ... compiler.] He was promoted to

was further extended to Rat Portage, now Kenora. Under his regime some important revisions of location were made

by Mr. C.H. Middleton, one of his subordinates, and several miles of construction were saved. For this service the

Government granted them a gratuity of two thousand dollars, but they did not claim

it, and the grant was afterwards cancelled as a bad precedent by a Royal Commission - a view shared by the

Engineers themselves. The official plans of the C.P.R. right-of-way through the western part of Northern Ontario on

file in the Department of Crown Lands, Toronto, bear the signature of John St. V. Caddy.

In 1884-85 he was stationed at Peninsula Harbour, Lake Superior, as inspector for the Government, and in 1886 at

St. John's, P.Q., in the same capacity. From 1888 to 1893 he was engineer in charge of construction on the Digby and

Annapolis Railway - or 'Missing Link,' as it was called - Nova Scotia, and in 1894-95 on borings for terminal at

Northumberland Strait; also on inspection work for the Dominion Government. For some two years he was inspector

on the Crow's Nest Pass work of the C.P.R. and later on the Inverness and Richmond Railway in Cape Breton, a

subsidiary of the Canadian Northern. Still later on the James Bay Railway at Parry Sound another subsidiary.

In 1908 he was appointed assistant engineer on the Rideau Canal, a position which he held until superannuated on

April 21st, 1921. As a land surveyor Mr. Caddy surveyed in 1875, a reserve adjoining the town plot of

Southhampton for the Provincial Government of Ontario.

He and his wife and children resided successively at Annapolis Royal, Hamilton, Walkerton, Sarnia, St. Thomas,

London, Detroit, Port Arthur, St. John's P.Q and other places. In 1900 he took up his permanent residence in Ottawa,

where he died on May 30th, 1924.

He was in good health and remarkably active for a man of his years, until about a year before his death, when he

strained his heart lifting a heavy boat. Notwithstanding, he walked some distance daily until a few days before his

death.

The following has been contributed by Mr. Allen R. Davis, who was an assistant engineer under Mr. Caddy on the

Annapolis and Digby Railway: 'Perhaps the most important feature of Mr. Caddy's long and active career was his

work when in charge of the location and construction of the Annapolis and Digby Railway in Nova Scotia, familiarly

known as the 'Missing Link' and built by the Dominion Government after many years of weary waiting by the local

residents and politicians. Annapolis was already connected by rail with Halifax to the east, while Digby was

connected with Yarmouth on the West Coast. The intervening gap of 25 miles from Annapolis to Digby was

traversed by stages and a line of small steamers on the rising and falling tide waters of the intervening basin, filling

and discharging through the narrow 'Digby Gut.' Great arms of the Basin had to be bridged, huge rock and earth cuts

to be made, and miles of dykes completed in order to obtain the necessary roadbed. Vast quantities of Portland

cement were used in the abutments and piers of these tidal water, and those were the days of first experiments by the

Government in this new method of construction, which worried Collingwood Schreiber, Chief Engineer, and

frequently brought him down to the scene of action, from 1889 to 1892. The constructors, O'Neill and Campbell,

entered a half million dollar suit against the Government, for extras, which was threshed out in the Exchequer Court,

Ottawa, and the contractors lost in their chief claims.'

Mr. H.K. Wickstead, who was at Port Arthur on C.P.R. work when Mr. Caddy was located there, and who knew him

intimately, has contributed the following paragraph: 'Mr. Caddy was a singularly amiable and lovable character, of

sterling integrity, and very happy in his home life until the illness of his wife intervened. Absolutely unassuming and

simple in his tastes, he made little stir in the outside world, but many lifelong friends. He was very fond of out-of-

door life and in his younger days a keen sportsman and skillful with rod and gun. His work was always honest and

conscientious, and he was never accused of carelessness or neglect. He was no politician and contractors did not love

him but his friends did.'

Mrs. Frances Catherine Caddy was an invalid for the last four years of her life, according to some further information

in the above biography. John St. Vincent Caddy and his wife had three children, all daughters:

1. Edith Louisa Caddy 5-1

2. Georgiana Caroline Caddy 5-2

the survey of India, but of late years he was engaged on independent commissions as an artist. His researches on the

Northwest frontier greatly enriched the museum with specimens of Buddhist remains, and his knowledge of the

last Thursday. Miss Caddy as far as her health and strength permitted was interested in all good works and

especially in connection with the St. John's Ambulance Association, to which she gave valued service in promoting

and a grand-daughter of the late Major James McGregor Rogers of Grafton, and the late Hon. Zacheus Burnham of

Cobourg, two pioneer families here. She is survived by two brothers, Arthur E. Caddy, Peterboro, Engineer in the

Trent Valley Canal, and Herbert D. Caddy of Midwest, Wyoming, and by two sisters, Miss Eva Caddy, Director of

Nurses at St. Barabas Hospital, Newark, N.J., and Miss M. E. Caddy, town. The funeral was held on Saturday

Division attended in a body the service held in St. Peter's Church. Rev. Dr. Boyle officiated there and at Grafton,

where the interment took place in the family plot, where five generations of the family sleep, a headstone bearing the

The following biographical sketch of Arthur Edward Caddy was taken in part from a history of the descendants of

James G. Rogers by Robert J. Rogers: "Arthur was born in Cobourg and baptised in St. Peter's Anglican Church by

the Rev. A.N. Bethune on 30 September 1866. He received his education at Cobourg and was employed as a

draftsman for the Peterborough Bridge Company until 1895. Later, he was associated with the Carnegie Steel

Company in Pittsburgh, and other American cities. In 1900, Arthur married Mary Barker of Boston who died two

years later shortly after the birth of their only daughter May. From 1907 to 1915, Arthur was employed as the Chief

Engineer at the Dickson Bridge Works in Campbellford. It was during this time that he met and married Matilda,

daughter of Alfred Denmark of Campbellford. The wedding took place at Christ Church in that city. In 1915,

Arthur became a Civil Engineer and subsequently a member of the engineering staff of the Trent Valley Canal. He

remained in this employment until the time of his death by which time he had advanced to the position of Assistant

Engineer of the Peterborough Lakefield portion of the canal. Arthur died suddenly following an operation for

appendicitis in 1933 at the age of 67 years. The Reverend Archdeacon RC Blagrave, Rector of St. John’s Anglican

Church, laid him to rest in Little Lake Cemetery in Peterborough. Matilda died in 1965 at the age of 83 years and

was laid to rest beside her husband."

Douglas Caddy went to the western U.S. in the late 1880's and worked as a cowboy, rancher, and at one time as an

oilfield worker. During his life he lived in North and South Dakota, Colorado, and Wyoming. Herbert and Anna

were married in 1898 in Deadwood, South Dakota. She was the daughter of John Carberry and Mary Stuart and was

born in Stuart, Nebraska. She died as a result of drowning at the Public Hot Springs on the Fort Washakie Indian

Reservation in Wyoming at the age of 45 years. A chronic heart condition probably caused her death and occurred

just a week after her son left to attend Stanford University in California. She was laid to rest in Atkinson, Nebraska.

Herbert died in Casper, Wyoming, some twelve years later of stomach ulcers at the age of 67 years and was laid to

rest in Riverton, Wyoming."

m. Mary Maude Bissell, 25 October 1910, St. Paul, Minnesota

b. 4 May, 1884, Brockville, Ontario

d. 25 November, 1958, Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario

Mary Maude Bissell was the daughter of Moses Bissell originally of Algonquin, Ontario and later of Swift Current,

Saskatchewan. At the time of the 1881 Canadian Census, a Herbert Butler, a cousin of Frank Caddy's, was living

with the family of Cyprian Caddy in Campbellford, Ontario. Herbert was 9 years old at the time (therefore born circa

1872). Herbert was from Buffalo, New York and died young of Typhoid Fever. From the Sault Ste. Marie Star for

12 November, 1910:

"The marriage took place quietly in St. Paul, Minnesota on October 25, 1910 of Mr. Frank W. Caddy and Miss

Maude Bissell, both well and favourably known in the Soo. Mr. Caddy is an official of the Algoma Steel Company

and his bride was for several years until quite recently bookkeeper for the firm of Hesson and Company. Mr. and

Mrs. Caddy spent their honeymoon in the twin cities and arrived in town on Sunday. They have taken up their

residence in Tagona where they will be at home to their friends after November 15th."

From a letter written by Mary Maude (Bissell) Caddy, concerning her husband:

"It says 1882-85 he was in the Bank of Hamilton at Port Elgin and Hamilton. In 1903, he was in southern Texas.

They were driven off work on account of floods. He came home to find his mother ill who died a week later. Went

on a government survey up to Lake Abitibi as transit man for a government engineer from Peterborough. Returned to

Campbellford in November and spent the Winter with his father. 1904 - assistant purser on Hammonic - dropped off

at Sault Ste. Marie on December 13th, 1904."

He married his wife in St. Paul, Minnesota because he was in Sault Ste. Marie prior to the marriage and she was in

Swift Current visiting her parents at the time and they chose St. Paul, Minnesota as a convenient half-way point at

which to meet. From the obituary for Francis William Caddy in the Sault Ste. Marie daily: "The death occurred at his

late residence, 168 Pim Street, January 17, of Francis William Caddy. The funeral was held from St. Luke's Pro-

Cathedral, Thursday, January 19, under the auspices of the Keystone Lodge A.S.A.M. and conducted by Very

Reverend Dean P.A. Paris. The pallbearers were A.E. Pickering, R.A. Gibson, A.H. Clark, William Walker, C.M.

Bone and William Rewcastle. Mr. Caddy was born at Campbellford, Ontario. He was the only child of the late

Cyprian Francis Caddy, D.L.S., and Emma Butler Caddy. His father, a member of a noted military family was born

at the Officer's Quarters, Woolwich Arsenal, and the headquarters of the British Army. He was the son of Colonel

John L. [sic] Caddy, R.A., and grandson of Captain J. Caddy of the Royal Engineers who was sent to Newfoundland

to build a fort in the 18th Century. Colonel John Caddy was stationed at Quebec for several years. He went back to

Woolwich where he later retired from the army and brought his family to Canada and settled near Lakefield, Ontario,

in 1834. His grandmother was the granddaughter of the late William Butler of London, a famous educator of his

time. After leaving school, Mr. Caddy spent a short time in the banking business with the Dominion Bank, but later

spent much more time in survey work with railway construction and government work in the United States and

Western Canada. In British Columbia, he worked on the construction of the Crow's Nest Pass in the Kootenay

district. In 1904 he came to Sault Ste. Marie. He became an employee of the Algoma Steel Corporation in February

1905 and continued there until the time of his death. During the Great War he travelled extensively in the United

States as material expediter. In 1910 he married Mary Maude Bissell, formerly of Brockville, who, with two

daughters, Frances Emma Caddy, Registered Nurse of Newark, New Jersey and Mary Ethel Caddy, survive."

Mary Maud Bissell is remembered by her daughters as being very intelligent and actively interested in politics.

Late in life, Frank had a leg amputated due to poor circulation. Because he had difficulty walking and because he and

his family didn't own a car, he took a taxi on a daily basis to get to work. He was a tall man. His chief hobby was

gardening. He died of a cerebral haemorrhage. Mary Maude (Bissell) Caddy died of a heart attack. They are both

buried in the Greenwood's Cemetery in Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario. They had two children, both daughters:

and now I live in an upstairs room."

He started on February 6th, 1905 with the Algoma Steel Corporation in the Shipping Department. War broke out in

1914. He went on the road in 1917 and travelled all over the U.S.A. for the company as material expediter."

From a newspaper article written in the late 1930's: "Honors heaped on Ben Lucien Burman for his prize-winning

novel are being shared by his Canadian wife, the former Alice Caddy of Hamilton and Ottawa, who illustrated the

book. The novel won the southern United States author's award and was selected by a jury of American critics as the

most distinguished southern book published in 1938. It is a story of the humorous and sometimes tragic present-day

life on the Mississippi River. Miss Caddy's sketches of scenes from the favorite hunting ground of Mark Twain won

equal acclaim from reviewers with her husband's breezy tales of Willow Joe, the youthful shanty-boat musician. Miss

Caddy's life is deeply rooted in Canada, which she visits every year and where her husband has written many of his

works.

Early in August she expects to leave for Ottawa and her annual vacation in the Gatineau, she said here today. Miss

Caddy comes by her talent naturally. She is the granddaughter of Captain John Caddy of the Royal Artillery whose

water colors of early Canada are now valuable collectors items. The Dominion Government recently purchased two

of his paintings. A great-granddaughter of Peter Stanton, pioneer Ontario settler, Miss Caddy was born in Hamilton,

Ontario. She lived for a time in Nova Scotia and Ottawa in her youth, returning to Hamilton to study at the Art

Institute, which also produced Arthur William Brown, noted New York magazine illustrator.

She married Mr. Burman in 1927 and has illustrated many of his works, notably his Mississippi and Steamboat

Round the Bend."

The following information comes from an obituary for Alice Caddy Burman appearing in the 5 August, 1977 edition

of the New York Times: "Alice Caddy Burman, artist and illustrator of a series of popular books by her husband Ben

Lucien Burman, died Wednesday night in St. Luke's Hospital after a long illness. She was 80 years old and lived at

24 Fifth Avenue.

Mrs. Burman used her maiden name, Alice Caddy, professionally. She traveled in the Arctic and the Sahara, the

jungles in Africa, Borneo and New Guinea to do her artwork. She lived at times among former headhunters and

cannibals. She also helped her husband, a war correspondent for the Reader's Digest and the Newspaper Enterprise

Association, on his assignments in the Middle East during World War II.

She also traveled extensively on Mississippi River boats to get material to illustrate her husband's 'Catfish Bend'

books, which Walt Disney Productions is making into a feature film and Ed Padula is scheduled to make into a

Broadway musical.

Mrs. Burman, born in Hamilton, Ontario, studied at the Art Students League on a scholarship. She met her husband

in Greenwich Village and married him in 1929. He survives her."

The following is taken from a brief obituary for Ben Lucien Burman in the Edmonton Journal for 14 November,

1984: "Ben Lucien Burman, a writer who delighted generations of folk tale fans with his fanciful stories of Catfish

Bend, Louisiana, died of a stroke Monday at age 88 in New York.

Burman, a newspaperman, detective story writer and war correspondent, won recognition as the author of 22 books,

including nine about the animal population of Catfish Bend, a mythical town on the Mississippi. Those nine books

sold 16 million copies in 11 languages."
