The Loder Family of Random Island[a]
The first "Loader" (later shortened to "Loder") to live on greater Random Island[b] was Silas Loader ("Silas-b1819"[c]) who was born in Old Perlican in 1819[1]. He married Rachel Cooper of Ireland's Eye in August 1845 in the Old Perlican Methodist Church and then moved across the Bay to settle in her home community of Ireland's Eye[2] [see Cooper Family]. Two of Silas-b1819 and Rachel's children later moved to Random Island proper where they raised families - their oldest daughter (Ann) married and moved to Thoroughfare only a kilometer or so across the water from the island of Ireland's Eye, and their oldest son (John-b1850) moved to Snook's Harbour about 30 km to the west up Smith Sound[3]. Their youngest son James-b1860 raised his family in the community of Ireland's Eye, and passed away at his son's home in Thoroughfare[2].
Pre Random Island
The Random Island Loders' earliest (Loder) ancestor to live in Newfoundland was Celas Loader (or, "Silas-b1766") who, in the late 1700s, went from Sturminster Newton in Dorset England to Harbour Grace. Celas was baptized in Lydlinch Dorset in 1766, as an "illegitimate" son of Mary Loder[4]. He bought land in Bay de Verde in 1800[5], and married Mary Day of there in the Anglican Church in September 1810. It appears that they had at least 4 children[1][6][7]:
- Elizabeth who was born in 1804 in Bay De Verde, baptized in the Anglican Church in 1805, and married Joseph Bursey in Old Perlican in 1822. They had 8 children there before Elizabeth died in 1842.
- James ("James-b1807") who was born ca[d] 1807, first married Elizabeth Gregory in 1828 in the Methodist Church in Old Perlican, and then married Ann Bursey in 1842. James had at least 5 children - 3 with Elizabeth and at least 2 with Ann - while living in Hant's Harbour. He died there in 1869.
- Jane who was born in 1813 in Bay de Verde, baptized in the Anglican Church in 1813, and married Thomas Mills in 1834 in Old Perlican. They had at least 2 children there before Jane died in 1842.
- Silas-b1819 who was baptized in the Methodist Church in Old Perlican in 1819, and married Rachel Cooper of Ireland's Eye in 1845. They settled in Ireland's Eye where they had 8 children [also see Cooper Family].
It appears from the above marriage and baptismal locations that Silas-b1766 and Mary had at least 2 children before marrying in 1810, and that they moved from Bay de Verde (where they were associated with the Anglican Church) to Old Pelican (where they associated with the Methodist Church) sometime between 1813 and 1819. It seems most likely that their son Silas-b1819 lived in Old Perlican until he married and moved to IE. But there is some uncertainty about this since death and burial information for his parents has not been found.
It should also be noted that a baptismal record for James-b1807 has not been found (baptismal records from the area are spotty between 1798 and 1814). His birth year and lineage given above have been inferred from his death record, similar first names among his siblings and his children, and DNA connections[e] among his and Silas-b1819's descendants.
It may be that Silas-b1766 and Mary had two other children for whom there are no baptismal records:
- William (Loader) of Carbonear (near Harbour Grace in Conception Bay) who married Eliza Burnell of there in the Harbour Grace Anglican Church in 1819, was a witness to over a dozen weddings in that church between 1827 and 1833, and was listed as living in Carbonear in 1835[1]; and
- Grace (Loader) who married William Moores in the same church in Carbonear in 1829 with William Loader as a witness[1].
However. no information on the parents or descendants of William or Grace has been found, nor on any connections to the Loaders of New Perlican, beyond Silas-b1766's first landing place in Newfoundland being Harbour Grace which is between Carbonear (where William and Grace lived) and Bay de Verde (where Silas-1766 bought land). It may alternatively be that William and Grace are no closer than cousins of Silas-1819 and his siblings who lived in Trinity Bay.
Random Island Families
First Generation
Silas-b1819 was the first of the Loder Family to live in the Random Island area[b]. His wife Rachel was one of at least 8 children of Edward and Ann Cooper of Ireland's Eye [see Cooper Family]. Silas and Rachel continued to live in the community of Ireland's Eye until their deaths in 1904 and 1910, respectively. We refer to them as the "First Generation" of the Random Island Loder Family.
Notes
- ↑ Prepared by John W Loder (JohnWLoder@gmail.com) who is a son of Harold Loder and a great-great grandson of Silas-b1819 Loader of Ireland's Eye, with input from his sister Verna (Loder) Wroblewski and other relatives. John has done extensive research on the Loder family, including communications with his 2nd, 3rd, and 4th cousins descended from Silas-b1819 and Rachel of Ireland's Eye.
- ↑ 2.0 2.1 The term "greater Random Island" here refers to Random Island with Ireland's Eye and nearby small islands included, while the term "Random Island area" refers to greater Random Island and communities on the mainland sides of Smith and Random Sounds such as British Harbour. This is in contrast to some works (e.g., the books by W.B.W. Martin (see references) which do not include Ireland's Eye as a part of Random Island.
- ↑ The notation "FirstName-bnnnn", such as "Silas-b1819", where "b" refers to born or baptized, and "nnnn" to a specific (or approximate) year, will be used to help keep track of some different members of the Loder Family, especially those with the first name of Silas. "(bbbb-dddd)" refers to the year "bbbb" of birth or baptism and the year "dddd" of death.
- ↑ 4.0 4.1 "ca" is a short form of "circa", meaning "around" a particular year but not necessarily that year exactly.
- ↑ DNA (short for "Deoxyribonucleic Acid") is an organic chemical which contains genetic information on an individual. The DNA connections noted here are based on analyses of the author’s DNA and that of others who are members of the genealogical association www.Ancestry.ca which indicate that they are related.
