When did the Eadie family first arrive in the United States? Where did the various branches of the family go? What is the Eadie family history? The name Eadie originated with the Anglo-Saxon tribes that once ruled Britain. It is derived from the son of Ede, as Edison, which was later shortened to Eadie. The surname Eadie originally derived from the Old English word Eade which referred to abundant riches.However, another reference claims that the name was derived from the Middle English name Edwy and the Old English word Eadwig which are composed of the elements ead meaning prosperity and wig which meant war.One relatively recent invention that did much to standardize English spelling was the printing press. However, before its invention even the most literate people recorded their names according to sound rather than spelling. The spelling variations under which the name Eadie has appeared include Eadie, Eades, Edey, Eadey, Eddy, Edeson, Edison and others. First found in many counties throughout England. The Hundred Rolls of 1273 reveled the list the first records of the name: Edde (no personal name listed) in Norfolk; Edde filius Hugh in Huntingdonshire; William filius Ede in Suffolk; Robert filius Ede in Huntingdonshire; and William Ede in Norfolk.

At this time, the shores of the New World beckoned many English families that felt that the social climate in England was oppressive and lacked opportunity for change. Thousands left England at great expense in ships that were overcrowded and full of disease. A great portion of these settlers never survived the journey and even a greater number arrived sick, starving, and without a penny. The survivors, however, were often greeted with greater opportunity than they could have experienced back home. These English settlers made significant contributions to those colonies that would eventually become the United States and Canada. An examination of early immigration records and passenger ship lists revealed that people bearing the name Eadie arrived in North America very early: Eadie Settlers in the United States in the 18th Century
