Abigail 1689-12-15
Susanna 1692-09-18
Patience 1696-06-27 d 1755-10-08 + William White

--
I originally had him as a son of Samuel Eddy and Elizabeth Savery, but that is a different John.

--
I also found his death date as 1695-05-27, which would mean he is not the father of Patience.
An LDS entry has him born 1637-12-25 and died 1715-05-27, which would allow him to be Patience's father, but it also has him as s/o Samuel Eddy + Elizabeth Savery, so the 1715 date may be the other John.
Neither date can be right, though, because his will (below) was written in 1696 and proved in 1700.

There was a John Eddy 1636-12-16 d 1694, s/o John Eddy 1597-03-27 Cranbrook, Kent ENG d 1684-10-12 Rehoboth, Bristol Co MA + Amy M Doggett 1597-07-16 Groton, Suffolk Co MA (not likely) d 1683-08-20 Rehoboth, Bristol Co MA.
John 1597 s/o William Eddy

John 1636 seems to have married 1693-07-03 Sarah Woodward 1675-10-03 Watertown, Middlesex Co MA d/o George Woodward + Elizabeth Hammond (Sarah's second marriage).
Some RootsWeb entries say he married Susannah Paddock, Deliverance Owen, and Hepzibah (unknown). [Hepzibah is probably wrong.]
