Background

This free-space continues on from an analysis of the ADEY Family Tree on the Turnbull.net website. That website seems to be solely interested in Ward Green and his relatives, which includes ADEYs in the Newfoundland Colony.

This page attempts to do a One-Name Study for Newfoundland, trying to include all ADEYs and determine whether/how they are related. It is based on well documented transcriptions on the Newfoundland Grand Banks (NGB) historical and genealogical data website[1].

Early ADEY Surname in Newfoundland

ADEY (also variants EADY, EDDY): "This surname has been traced to Cornwall and Devon in England [source?]. It is one of the older name[s] at Bay de Verde, probably from the area of Bristol in England [source?]. Mary, a daughter of Stephen and Sarah ADEY was baptised by Rev John Clinch on September 7, 1797 at Bay de Verde. She was six years old. The Plantation Book has Stephen ADEY owning land at Bay de Verde in 1782, so we can assume that he must have come here at least by that year. The name has undergone several changes over the years. They were originally known as ADEY but in later years the name changed to EADY at Bay de Verde and EDDY at Sibley’s Cove. Descendants of Stephen were living at Bay de Verde until October 19, 2002 when his great great grandson Thomas EDDY died."

  1. Based on the ADEY entry in the Surnames of Bay de Verde[2] and the matching WikiTree Space page
  2. The Heritage House has a complete collection of Family Trees for all families of Bay de Verde, Red Head Cove and Daniel’s Cove (as well as some for Grates Cove, Low Point and Old Perlican), from as far back as Anglican and Roman Catholic records were kept. You may contact the Heritage Committee Secretary by phone at (709) 587-2260 or President Gerald Riggs at (709) 587-2021. E-mail contacts are bandbdoyle@eastlink.ca or carl_riggs@hotmail.com.
  3. Some of Stephen’s other descendants are still living close by at Sibley’s Cove. Another family of ADEYs were at Hant’s Harbour but it is not known if they are connected to those of Bay de Verde.
  4. The surname ADEY does not appear on the Family Names[2] for the following other locations:
    • Red Head Cove
    • Grates Cove
    • Daniel's Cove
    • Low Point
    • Old Perlican

Newfoundland Places with ADEY Surname

Each of these places has a corresponding WikiTree category, which should have been used on each of the ADEY profiles associated with the place. Thus, from the place category it should be possible to easily access all the profiles of people who lived there.
NOTE: The naming convention of places in Newfoundland depends on the date, because Newfoundland was an independent colony for longer than most of Canada.

Censuses

To assist in sorting the tables, the location names in each record have been given a standardized name, based a single contraction created by the enumerators (or transcribers). For Newfoundland, few 19th-century census returns have been found that list names. The records mostly contain just statistical summaries.

Canadian census dates (but Newfoundland only became officially part of Canada in 1949).

  • 1871 (April 2)
  • 1881 (April 4)
  • 1891 (April 6)
  • 1901 (March 31)
  • 1911 (June 1)
  • 1921 (June 1)

NOTE: [sic] is an abbreviation of "sic erat scriptum", which is Latin for "thus it had been written". It means that the prior quote was transcribed, as it was found in the original source, complete with errors, coloquialisms, etc.

Newfoundland's 1911 Census

Timeline of the ADEY Family in Newfoundland

This list was initially produced by cut and pasting from the results of doing the following Google Search:
site:wikitree.com/wiki/ "adey" "newfoundland"
and then later by WikiTree Person Search for Surname adey Death Location newfoundland Not all the profiles may be directly connected with Newfoundland, as the simple Google query only checked for the mention of Newfoundland. Therefore an individual might be connected with Newfoundland only through the birth, or marriage, or death of a relative (or through some other means).
