Liddesdale, Scotland is the much contested district of the border and forms the wedge-like termination of Roxburghshire, Scotland, running a little into Dumfrieshire. This is probably where the Liddle ancestors picked up the name. Bovina settlement was begun in 1792 and during the next 3 years many families from Conn. and Scotland located in the valleys.
Thomas Liddle is one of nine early settlers. Thomas was a native of Scotland, who emigrated to this country in his youth and settled in Bovina, where he bought a tract of about 400 acres of land. He was for sometime Overseer of the Poor. Thomas was a Republican in politics, and, like his wife, a United Presbyterian in religion. Margaret Archibald was born in Scotland, married and came to America. On the voyage over her husband died and was buried at sea. After arriving in Bovina she married Thomas Liddle. (Source: Biographical Review of Leading Delaware Co. Citizens).
On May 10, 1815, the first church building in Bovina was raised to be known as the United Presbyterian Church of Bovina. Thomas and Margaret were included in the 36 members. On the first Tuesday of March 1820, the first town meeting for Bovina was held. Twenty-nine road districts were created and Thomas was named Overseer of Highways in his road district.
