In Drummond on Mon. May 19, 1890, Mr. James Code, aged 73 years.

Silently the shade of evening
Gather round our silent door, Silently they bring before us
A face that we shall see no more
Oh, not lost, but gone before us
Let him never be forgot
Sweet his memory be lovely
In our hearts he perish not.

We regret to record the death of an old and respected resident Mr. James Code of Drummond who passed away on Monday morning May 19th, at an advanced age of 73. He was born in the County of Wexford Ireland in the year 1817 and emigrated to this country with his parents when but eight months old. His parents were about some of the first settlers of Drummond. They then took up land on what is now called fourth Con. Drummond but was then an entire wood, through many hardships as was known in them early days. He worked along with his parents while helping to clear and till the land until the year 1842 he married one of Irelands fair daughters Miss Eliza Bailey and settled down for himself on a farm on the third line which he remained up to the time of his death.

He had a family of 12 children five of whom dies in early childhood and seven of whom still remain to mourn his loss toghether with his sorrowing widow.

In religion he was a methodist from his early childhood which he always upheld and sustained. And in May 19th peacefully passed away after a lengthy illness of five months.

The Methodist Minister Mr. Henderson preached his funeral sermon taking as his text part of the XC Psalm.

Notes:

(Research):?i?http://www.yclc.ca/indexz.html

?/i?Thomas Codd (Coad) (1773-1852)** came to Canada in 1820 with his wife LADY Elizabeth (nee Twamley (1774 or 1778 -1839) from Corwick Lowhelem*. Their offspring - the 2nd generation Codes who came to Boyd's Settlement were George, Richard, Thomas, Abraham, Rachel and James. Abraham later moved to North Dakota and James to Saginaw, Michigan. The others remained in the Boyd's Settlement community and latterly at Kitley Twp. until the late 1840's to early 1850's when George and Richard moved their families to Trowbidge in Huron County and East Wawanosh in Western Ontario respectively. The elder Thomas Codd and his son Richard, changed their name to Coad in the late 1840s, and moved to Kitley Twp. to be with their Coad kin. The reason for the name change has remained a well-kept secret.

George Code (b. 1800 at Croneleagh Hill, Wicklow - granted Lanark Con. XII- Lot 4E) married Pearl Boyd (daughter of Samuel Boyd - the original settler who was granted Con. XII Lot 2W.)

Thomas Sr. received Con. XII Lot 4W. Daughter Rachel Code married Thomas Jackson*** (Lanark Township Con XII Lot 2E) who came with Lancelot Jackson (Con. XII Lot 1E) in 1820.

Thomas Code b. 1807 stayed on the homestead Con. XII Lot. 4W (of which I painted a picture when I was 16) and married Mary Jane James and had 7 children by his first marriage - William, James, Rachel, Ann, Eliza Mary and Letitia.

After Mary Jane died, Thomas Code remarried Mary (Price or Pryce) with whom he had 10 more children - Harriet (m. an Agnew) Thomas (m. Mary Willows - the Willows owned the property to the south of Thomas' farm - Lanark XII Lot 3) Alicia (who married William James McCreery) John, Margaret ( who married John McCreery), Sarah, Albert and Abraham - 17 children in all. Margaret Code McCreary was my great grandmother.
** Thomas Code, b. 1773, Munahullen, Aghowle Parish, Shillelagh Barony, Co. Wicklow, Ireland, d. July 23, 1852, Lanark Twp, Lanark Co., Ontario, Canada, m. Elizabeth Twamley in Ireland before 1800.

*** Thomas Jackson, b. 1798, Tullow, Co. Carlow., Ireland, d. August 13, 1881 Lanark Twp., Lanark Co., Ontario, Canada, m. Rachel Code January 1, 1821 in St. James Church, Perth, Lanark Co., Ontario, Canada.? Children are: Elizabeth, Ellen (Eleanor), John, Abraham, Thomas, Leticia and Mary.

?b?The Codd/Code Connection?/b?

My ancestral Codd family had come out in 1820 at the same time as Samuel Boyd - and later became Codes and Coads. While detailed suggestions of a community's origins are often lost to "official" records, my great aunt, Laura (McCreary) Ferrill (who 's buried at Boyd's) as an amateur historian put together much of the ancient Codd family tree data before such practices were common. She records the histories of the Codds who also arrived in 1820 and who later married into the McCreery family. The Codd (or Code) family came to Wicklow County from the "Barony of Forth" County Wexford (17th century). Their origin was English - and ultimately Anglo-Norman - coming over from Normandy with William the Conqueror, and arriving in Ireland at Castletown in Wexford with Strongbow in 1190 as landed gentry.

There is reference to Lake of Lady's Island as "once in four or five years opened evacuating itself into the sea - a passage cut by Squire Codde of Castletown (on the east coast of Ireland in Wexford) ."Squire John Codde is mentioned in the parish register of Wexford. Anne Codde of Castletown married a Reverend Thomas Bunbury of Balesker in 1668. Jane Codde married Thos. Richards Esq. of "The Park" and later Rathaspec. Loftus Codde of Castletown deposited a will in 1696 at Emiscarthy (Enniscorthy). These Norman Coddes were Roman Catholic - and only later families became Protestant.

They could not have come alone. Emigrant settlers travelled in groups. Henry Hammond, whose wife was a Boyd was there in August 1820, and I suspect at least two other August '20 settlers - John Conn, and William Brown and perhaps even John Totton - may have come from Armagh. Andrew Stephenson (or Stevenson) also married to a Boyd, would join them in 1824.

From Aghold Parish in 1820 there were Thomas Codd, Edward Hopkins, Thomas and Lancelot Jackson, Henry Martin, Robert and Samuel Wellwood, and John Poole - joined by 1822 by John Warren, George Codd, William Dowdall and Charles and Fosse Sterne.

We know little about the early settlers except that the Boyds were Wesleyan Methodists (Samuel was a Sunday School teacher in Ireland) - and that John Wesley had paid several visits to Portadown in Armagh between 1767 and 1785, attracting a large following there. Many, but not all of the Aghold, Wicklow group were Methodists as well. We remain uncertain of the exact location of the origins of the Armagh emigrations - except that the earliest - the Boyds the Hammonds, the Stephansons were from the Keady area.

County Armagh occupies a small area - 30 miles from north to south and 15 miles from east to west. While one is tempted to group the Parishes of Tynan, Derrynoose and Keady (surrounding the town of Keady) - and perhaps Newtownhamilton - as separate from the parishes of Mullaghbrack and Loughgilly (surrounding the town of Markethill), such a grouping is arbitrary. The Parish of Drumcree, to the north contains the town of Portadown -with a large Methodist population around the time of emigration (1820s). The earliest (1820-22) settlers were definitely from the Keady area.
