    Stephen Burdick was a farmer, and lived in Hopkinton, R. I. He was a zealous member of the Baptist Church, and was held in high esteem by his friends and neighbors. He married Mary Church, who bore him nine sons and one daughter, namely: Joel, Billings, Caleb, Joshua, Thomas, Zebediah, Stephen, Kendall, Elias and Polly, who became the wife of Barber Cardner. Not all these children migrated to Susquehanna county. Elias, the youngest son in the family, came first in 1816, bringing with him his two nephews, Thomas and Billings. Simeon, a brother of Thomas and Billings, also came in 1816. In 1825 Kendall Billings, brother of Elias, also removed to Clifford township. Joshua and Billings Burdick, sons of Stephen, moved to Greenfield township, Lackawanna county, Pennsylvania.
