History
On June 7, 1675 in Shadwell, England, Roger Pedrick and his wife Rebekah Holeman Pedrick, members of the Society of Friends, purchased a thousand acre tract of land from John Fenwick, and shortly thereafter crossed the Atlantic to be in their new home. They originally settled in Chester, Pennsylvania as their home was being built their property on the other side of the Delaware. The minutes of the “Men’s and Women’s Friends Meeting” (a Quaker group) refer to the area as “Pedricks Neck” in the 1720s and the birth records of many of Roger’s and Rebekah’s descendants list their birth place as “Pedricksburg.”
