About U. S. LIDGARD FAMILY/WHITE/MEACHAM/STANDISH
Hello, my name is JUDY LIDGARD. I am a U S LIDGARD Family member. Thank you
for visiting my site. I am a Mayflower direct descendant of Captain Myles
Standish of the Mayflower.
The U S Lidgard family began in Lincolnshire England with Charles Lidgard and
his wife Ann.
Their son Thomas married Ann Unknown and had 3 chuildren, Mary, Ann and
Charlotte. Ann died in 1805. Then Thomas married Elizabeth Wallace 1806
(Wallis)
and had 10 more children in Bishop Norton. Three sons Solomon, William and
Johnson came to America in the early 1830's. Solomon married Mary Ann Hatfield
who had also newly arrived from England with her father Henry Hatfield Jr.
Solomon and Mary Ann had 12 children, one who was Charles Lidgard. Charles
married Mary Rhinehart and they had 9 children including a son named Ulysses
Solomon (U.S.) Lidgard. Ulysses married Jennie Evelyn Burkholder and had two
children William born 1897, and Harry Octavus born 1899. William died around
1902. I began searching for my father Harry Octavus Lidgard family and found
his father was U.S. Lidgard, son of Charles Lidgard. From there the U S
Lidgard family came to life. I found descendants of Solomon, William, and
Johnson Lidgard searching for the U S Lidgard family.I now have found the
Lidgard family in England. Sharing all my new
wealth with my sister Julene and my family was very rewarding. This led me to
England and I was able to find all the Lidgard children of Thomas and both
wives. All this led to searching and completing my other family lines
Standish, Meacham, White, Privett.
(The U S Lidgard family is not known related to the (Lidyard, Liget, Ligget,
Leggett, Lidget, Leget, Lidgard of Aukland, New Zealand, Austraila etc. The U
S Lidgard family came directly from Lincolnshire England to America, and
settled in Ohio, then Illinois and Pulaski County Indiana. This is the U S
Lidgard family who began with Solomon, William, and Johnson Lidgard.
I am the great great great granddaughter of Abraham Meacham and Lydia
Standish. I have enjoyed researching, finding all our precious family from
the past. We begin with Miles Standish who came on the Mayflower, and
Jeremiah Meacham. Here are all our Allied
Families.
I hope you enjoy searching for your family as much as we have and find a pot
of Golden Relations at the end of the rainbow. Be sure to search Findagrave
for our loved ones departed. I wish to thank Suzanne Fisher for her help.
Without it, this site would not have been possible. Her endless hours of
research and support.
