    Notes:

    John Baldridge died in Martic Township, Lancaster P.A. Buried: at Chestnut Level: Presbyterian Church. Married at St. Ann's Cathedral in Ulster Ireland. John did not emigrate with his parents and siblings in 1730. He stayed behind, possibly to settle his Father's estate, and married Rebekah. Another source says he stayed in Ireland with his grandfather, Sir James Holmes, at Sir James' insistance, and that he came to America only after Sir James' death. Whatever the case, John and Rebekah finally joined John's family in America in 1737, arriving in Philadelphia aboard "The Village Belle". The couple already had their first 2 children at this time, and their 3rd child was born the same year they emigrated. They colonized land in Martic Township in southern Lancaster County just a few miles northwest of John's parents. At some point, Rebekah's name was changed to the more common spelling of 'Rebecca'. Most documents pertaining to her list the new spelling. In about 1765, John, along with some of his sons and his younger brother, Alexander, traveled to North Carolina and bought acreage in Old Mecklenburg County (northwest of the present-day City of Charlotte). An abstract, dated 13 May 1765, attesting to the purchase by John Baldrige of land along Indian Camp Creek and the Catawba River, can be found in Tryon-Lincoln County Deeds, Volume 1, Pages 670-671. Three other deeds involving similar purchases or rentals of land in that area by John Baldrige appear on pages 155-159 of Volume 4, Mecklenburg County, North Carolina, Deed Abstracts. John returned to Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, only to die there in late July 1766 before he could relocate his family to North Carolina. John Baldrige's Last Will and Testament, dated 15 July 1766 and filed for probate on 31 July 1766, was recorded in Will Book "B", Volume 1, Page 448, Official Records of Lancaster County. It is generally considered that John Baldrige was buried in the cemetery of Chestnut Level Presbyterian Church, although there is no known tombstone there bearing his name.

    John married Rebecca Clark in 1733 in Colerine, Ulster, Ireland. Rebecca (daughter of William Clark and Margaret) was born about 1720; died on 1 Jul 1823 in Belwood, Cleveland County, NC. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
