First Generation --------------------------------------------------

1. Eliakim Tupper1. Born on 4 Dec 1742 in Lebanon, CT. Eliakim died in Stewiacke, NS, on 22 Aug 1811; he was 68. Residence: Cornwallis (1761), Truro, (1773), Upper Stewiacke, (1792). Eaton reports a birth year of 1741 (1 ), while Calnek reports a birth year of 1761 (2 ), but this latter date is impossible based on his children's birth years, as reported by Miller (3 ). "Record of Marriages for the Township of Cornwallis" : p. 236 "Eliakim Tupper son of Elias Tupper and Jerusha his wife was married to Elizabeth Newcomb daughter of Eddy Newcomb and Abigail his wife on the [blank] 1762 by Handley Chipman, J.P." Eliakim was one of the early settlers of Truro. He removed from New England to the western part of Nova Scotia about the year 1760, and about the year 1773 he removed to Truro, where he kept an Inn, the only one in Truro at that time. On Sept. 16, 1780, he was appointed Justice of the Peace for what is now the whole of the Counties of Colchester and Pictou. He carried on business as a merchant. He was the contractor for finishing the inside of the first church that was built in Truro. His business, while in Truro not being very profitable, and having a large family 1 For the Ancestry of Eliakim Tupper, please see http://www.gofffamilyhistory.ca/TupperColchesterNovaScotia.pdf


of sons, he was induced to leave Truro and removed to Stewiacke about the year 1792, and settled on the farm occupied by his grandson in 1873, Eliakim Tupper, Esq., and his sons. He was married to Elizabeth Newcomb about the time they first came to Nova Scotia.3 Although Thos. Miller gave a death date of 22 Aug. 1810, Eliakim Tupper, despite 'being weak in body but sound in mind and memory,' signed his will on 14 May 1811, it was probated 27 Nov. 1811 but was not settled until 1814. Perhaps he died 22 Aug. 1811. From Helen Gibson, “This helps to explain how he, Eliakim Tupper, signed a grant application for my 4 Gr Grandfather Samuel Godfrey on - Oct 20th 1810 - "Samuel Godfrey appeared before me one of his Majesty's Justices of the Peace, and made oath that the above Memorial is true, and that he is willing to take the Oath of Allegiance when required - Eliakim Tupper J.P."

Eddy died in New Annan, NS, in 1858; he was 79. Residence: Greenfield, NS, New Annan, NS. Birth recorded by John Harris, Town Clerk, Truro. Thomas Miller tells the story of the birth of Eddy’s twins. "They settled in the woods at Greenfield, being 5 miles from the nearest neighbour. Upon one occasion while they were living in this lonely situation in the woods and the snow was very deep, Mrs. Whidden not being very well one morning he started and took his cattle with him to try and make a track in the snow, so that some person might get to his house to be with her; but he failed in getting a track made through the deep snow. He returned home at night much fatigued, when his wife presented him with two sons that had been born during the day." They had the following children: 42 i. Eliza (1808-bef 1871) ii. Mary. Born in 1810 in Greenfield, Col. Co., NS. Mary died in New Annan, NS, in May

1857; she was 47. There is some confusion surrounding Sarah and Mary Whidden. Miller says (as does

Helen Whidden, likely from Miller), that Sarah married Ebenezer Upham. However, a marriage in Colchester County for Richard Upham, age 22, son of Eben and Mary (Whiddden), resident of Tatamagouche, married 2 March 1865 to Lucy Patriquin, age 20,


daughter of A and M (MacBurnie), also a resident of Tatamagouche, suggests otherwise. Jerry McCombie, 10629 Watertown Ct., Orlando, FL 32821-8616, also provides family evidence that Sarah Whidden, daughter of Eddie, b. 1816 Onslow, NS, m. 1841 in Pictou William John McCombie (d. 1904). Neither Miller or Helen Whidden have any information on Mary. Thus it appears that Miller confused Mary for Sarah in his account.

Round Hill From the United Church of Canada Bulletin 41-01, Remembrance Day. With each passing year, fewer are left to remember the wars that the Remembrance day

poppies signify. One Nova Scotia family has a unique way of remembering. Their grandfather and great-grandfather, James Howard Tupper, left his wife and four children to serve in the First World War. Before he left he wrote a letter to each of his sons which their mother, Letty, was to give them on their twelfth birthdays. In these letters James shared with his children his love for them, his devotion to his wife and his strong faith in God. “First”, he wrote, “be true to your God. Second, be true to yourself. Third, be tru to your country.” While he was serving in France, James asked a friend to take a small piece of ivy home to his wife. Letty planted the ivy, which thrived in the rich farm soil of the Annapolis Valley. In September 1916, James was killed in action. No one can say for sure the influence James had on the succeeding generations. However, each of James and Letty’s sons served as ministers in The United Church of Canada, and this legacy has continued as a great-grandson now carries on the tradition. James’ presence is also acknowledged as his vine continues to be woven into anniversary corsages and bdridal bouquets, and crawls along the walls of family homes.

November 11, 2001, Hello to Colleagues and Friends Just a note to let you know that the Mission and Service Fund bulletin for November 11, 2001 has a a strong personal connection for me. The back of the bulletin tells the story of a Nova Scotia family who have a special way of remembering. The story is about my great-grandfather who was killed in World War I. One of the things he did before he died was to pick a slip of

ivy vine in a convent garden in France and it made it's way back to my great-grandmother and it has been growing in the family, ever since. We have it growing in our kitchen in Fort Qu'Appelle. The bulletin cover mentions his legacy of faith and love. His two sons became United Church ministers (one being my grandfather) and it says that one great-grandson is a minister as well - that's me!


It is a legacy that I am proud of and remembrance has a personal meaning for me. Even though I never knew James H. Tupper, I do feel that he has influenced my life. If you are worshipping or leading worship in a place that uses the bulletin, I have one request - could you send me a copy! It would be neat to have copies of the cover from congregations throughout the country. Paul Dillman, Box 2027, Fort Qu'Appelle, SK S0G 1S0 Minister at Heritage United in Regina.

Buried in Oak Park Cemetery, Chicago. There is some confusion surrounding Sarah and Mary Whidden. Miller says (as does Helen Whidden, likely from Miller), that Sarah married Ebenezer Upham. However, a marriage in Colchester County for Richard Upham, age 22, son of Eben and Mary (Whiddden), resident of Tatamagouche, married 2 March 1865 to Lucy Patriquin, age 20, daughter of A and M (MacBurnie), also a resident of Tatamagouche, suggests otherwise. Jerry McCombie, 10629 Watertown Ct., Orlando, FL 32821-8616, also provides family evidence that Sarah Whidden, daughter of Eddie, b. 1816 Onslow, NS, m. 1841 in Pictou William John McCombie (d. 1904). Neither Miller or Helen Whidden have any information on Mary. Thus it appears that Miller confused Mary for Sarah in his account.

Eliakim Tupper, Warden of Colchester County, died this morning at the residence of his son-in-law, L.M. Ellis, Queen Street, Truro. The death of Col. Tupper has come upon us all with a shock. It was so sudden and to most of our citizens so unexpected. For some time the Warden had been suffering from severe pains from an injury to his abdomen, which latterly developed into an abcess on the wall of the abdomen, and which such serious symptoms that he left his home in Stewiacke and arrived in Truro on Monday the 10th inst., for medical treatment. There is no doubt but that the deceased contracted cold while journeying to Truro, and when he arrived here he was a very sick man. His physician, Dr. J. H. McKay, did all that medical skill could do, and had consultation with Dr. W.S. Muir on Sunday last. Both physicians agreed as to the nature of the disease and as to the very serious condition of the suffering man. Yesterday the Warden was about the same in his symptoms. He lingered through the night and this morning, as already stated, passed quietly away. The immediate cause of death was an abcess on the wall of the abdomen resulting in peritonitis and blood poisoning. Inflammation of the bowels had set in and was another complication that baffled all medical skill. By the death of Warden Tupper, Colchester County loses one of it's ablest, shrewdest and most talented men. After the Municipal Incorporation Act was passed, Col. Tupper was the first Warden in Colchester. He at once showed his firm and lucid grasp of the new Act, and from his clear interpretation of its complicated provisions started the machinery running smoothly in the county. The deceased was born 66 years ago on the farm at South Branch, Upper Stewiacke, where he has ever resided, and to a community in which he has ever been universally respected. He was Warden of this County at the time of his death. The deceased has left a widow, one son Martin L., who resides on the homestead, and a daughter, Mrs. L.M. Ellis of this town. To them and other relatives the News extends heartfelt and sincere sympathy in their unexpected and sad bereavement. It is expected that the remains will leave here on Thursday for the Presbyterian church in Upper Stewiacke Village, where the funeral service and ceremonies will take place at about 2 o'clock on that day. - (Truro Daily News - Tuesday Dec 18, 1894) Warden Tupper's Funeral - An immense mass of people assembled at Upper Stewiacke Presbyterian Church, yesterday afternoon to attend the funeral of the late Warden Tupper.

Fraser and John Robbins. Mr Gunn gave an admirable address and Rev. John Robbins supplemented his remarks by a most touching figure to the memory of the late Colonel Tupper. After the services were over, friends passed around the bier and gave the last look of love


on him who has been so universally respected by all. The death of Colonel Tupper has left a blank in this county that will be very hard to fill. All spoke of him with the greatest respect, feeling that the district of Stewiacke has lost a most valuable member of society, and the County of Colchester on of its ablest men. - (Truro Daily News - Friday Dec 21, 1894) On 10 Aug 1855 when Eliakim was 26, he married Elizabeth Hamilton, daughter of James Hamilton (ca 1810-) & Elizabeth Gammell (ca 1811-12 May 1883).

From the Index to the 1881 census, 73 SALMON RIVER 73 SERRET PETER 59 M, SARAH 58 M, ELIZABETH 20, SARAH 17, CHARLOTTE 11.

through the 1940's and 1950's, and he remembered a family connection with Martha Goff, dau. of Rachel (McMullin) McDougall, which was passed on through her grandson Everill Goff who also worked at Brookfield Creamery.

George Bartlett of Bible Hill, near Truro, drowned when the boat he was in, over-turned in Northumberland Strait near Marshville, Pictou County. Accompanying Mr. Bartlett was his granddaughter's husband, Robert Cumming Cook, also of Bible Hill, who managed to remain with the boat and reach shore safely. The men were 200 yards off shore when the accident occurred at about 9:30 when tides were high and the water rough. RCMP said Mrs. Cook was visiting in a summer cottage on the shore and heard cries for help from the water. Dragging operations yesterday morning were hampered by high winds and shifting tides. The body was located at 11:10. Pictou RCMP were not certain what caused the boat to overturn but estimated high winds were probably mainly responsible. Medical examiner Dr. S.D. Dunn of Pictou ordered an autopsy which was performed at Aberdeen Hospital in New Glasgow yesterday, by Dr. N. Park.
