Hello, you said:
"I keep coming across information that possibly might link Aldred Bickham to other Bickham's in New Jersey and Philidelphia. I am trying to find information on Caleb Bickham's parents."
I'm the 11great-grandaughter to Aldred BICCOMBE, of Old Cleeve, Somersetshire, England. His daughter, Charity BYCCOMBE/BICKHAM married Giles SLOCOMBE/SLOCUMBE/SLOCUM.
here's what little I do have on this family:
1 Aldred BYCCOMBE

She was the dau of Aldred Byccombe and Ellen. Wills-Charity Biccombe, mother of Giles, proved 26 Jan 1642/3; Aldred Byccombe (Father of Charity) proved 2 Feb 1610/11; Ellen Bickham, (Mother of Charity) proved 12 Jun 1627; and Aldred Bickham (Brother of Charity) proved 24 May 1652. Giles came to Taunton, MA in 1643, soon after his mother died. He may have been related to Anthony Slocum, who came to Taunton in 1639.

I'm not sure how much research you've done on this family, but I am wondering if your Aldred goes back to mine, through my Charity's brother, Aldred?
The Slocums came to America and settled in Portsmouth, Rhode Islandand from there to Dutchess Co. NY and then into Andover, Allegany Co. NY, where my great-grandmother, Alma Sophia Slocum was born.
If you find a connection, please let me know, Maureen
