Edmund Tiddeman/Teddeman was in the British Navy. He was also a Quaker. After July 1670, when the Friends' Horseleydown Meetinghouse in London was demolished by order of the king of England in council, private meetings were held in the home of Edmund Tiddeman until a meetinghouse could be rebuilt. In 1672 Capt. Tiddeman traveled with William Penn; he was in prison in 1683; c1684 he purchased over 700 acres in Burlington, NJ, probably intending to move there -- which he never did. This land eventually was passed down to his grandson, Joseph Hull, son of Allice (Tiddeman) Hull. (source: "The Hull Family in America" by Charles H. Weygant, Hull Family Association, 1913, p. 262)
