John Eldridge and Elizabeth Collings were recorded as having married on 30 Jan 1766 at Truro in Barnstable County, Massachusetts. Other records show the births of three children to John and Elizabeth at Truro. Their son John, born on 11 Nov 1773 was later baptised on 26 Dec 1773, presumably died as they also had a son john born on 2 Sep 1775.
The surviving John married Rebecca Small on 6 Jan 1799 at Truro and available records show their children Rebecca and John were born at Truro. The family then moved to Bucksport where Isaac was born as were seemingly all his younger siblings. John's wife Rebecca is recorded in the household of Isaac in the 1850 and 1860 census for Bucksport.
