Philinda Eddy was born on March 4, 1819 in Genesee County, New York, the daughter of John Eddy, Sr. and Mary Sawyer Eddy.

Ella Jenner (1853-1854)
Mary Adelaide (Adelie) Jenner (1855-1937) m. John Wesley Riggle
After Timothy's death, circa 1861, Philinda married Abel Matson (aka Mattison, Mattson) in about 1865. Abel had been married to Mary Jenner, Timothy's sister. Abel and Mary's children, originally Philinda's nieces and nephews, then became her stepchildren:
Sarah Matson (1831-1923) m. 1) Daniel D Rexford (1832-1864); 2) Horace S Palmer (1831-1899)
Gilbert A Matson (1836-1895) m. Emeline L Smith (1839-1880)

Philinda appeared on the 1875 New York State census with husband Abel, living in Harmony, but was widowed by 1880. According to the 1880 census, she had moved from Harmony, NY to Fremont, Isabella County, Michigan where she lived with daughter Clarissa Jenner Williamson and family, and worked as a weaver.
By 1885, Philinda had returned to her homeland where she married William Benedict Pier, born in Harmony in 1814. Pier, who had previously married Adah H. Carpenter (1813-1879), had at least 3 sons, now Philinda's stepchildren:

Calvin Pier (1842-1862)

By the 1900 census, Philinda and William were living in Corry, Erie County, Pennsylvania. At age 86, she died of La Grippe on February 5, 1906, and William died just 8 months later on October 11, 1906. Philinda was interred in Blockville Union Burial Ground in Chautauqua County, NY.
