I'm a descendant of Mary Catherine. I have no definite proof of ancestry for Lewis, but the most likely seems to be Abraham Eader b. abt 1755 d. 10 Apr 1832 OH and Susannah Koenig, who were married 28 Feb 1804. I've not had the time to personally research this, so for now it's just a theory. As for your line, I have nothing on John Henry, except that he had a daughter Virginia, who in turn had a daughter Mildred. I have no spouse names, no dates, nothing else, so any blanks you can fill in would be great. If you're interested in the info I have on my line, just let me know. Here are my notes on Lewis:
Lewis can be found in the 1850 census, living in New Market, Frederick Co., MD, age 36. Wife Margaret was listed as age 37. Children included Mary, Ann, Jacob, Charles, Lewis, Virginia, Margaret, and Frances.
At some point, Lewis and family moved just across the Maryland border, into Fulton Co., PA, as Lewis can be found there in the 1870 Federal census, age 58. Lewis and family were living in Thompson Twp., but the post office was listed as "Hancock, MD", showing how close to Maryland they were actually living. Also living with him in 1870 were wife Catherine and son Charles, as well as a Sarah Worman, age 4, Black, b. Virginia.
Lewis and family can be found in the 1880 Federal Census, still living in Thompson, Fulton Co., PA:
Hhold 68/74
Eater, Louis A., 68, Farmer, b. MD pars b. MD
Eater, Catharine F., 67, Wife, b. MD, pars b. MD
Wilson, Sallie, 15, Black, Servant, b. VA (surely the Sarah Worman from 1870)
3 households away:
71/77
Eader, John H., 26, Farmer, b. MD
Eader, Susan, 19, b. MD
Eader, Archy Willis, Son, 5/12 (b. Feb) MD
Eader, Albert, brother, 28, b. MD
Lewis and son Charles were listed in the muster rolls of Company B, 35th Virginia Cavalry (White's Battalion), during the Civil War. That Cavalry was part of the Laurel Brigade, which served under Stonewall Jackson in the Shenandoah Valley. The brigade saw action at other battles including Winchester, Manassas, Brandy Station, Petersburg, and Appomattox.
