Page  33,  No.  248:  Dr.  Chas.  F.  Nassau  resides  1515  Wallace 
street,  Philadelphia,  instead  of  Germantown. 

Page  117,  No.  161:  Mary  Jane  Williamson,  usually  known  as 
Miss  Jennie,  died  in  Lebanon,  Tenn.,  July  2nd,  1912. 
She  was  a  woman  of  noble  character  and  a  consistent 
member  of  the  Presbyterian  church. 

Page  124,  No.  63:  James  Marshall  Cloyd  married  a  Miss  L.  F. 
Sharp,  near  Nashville,  Tenn.,  and  removed  to  Harde- 
man County,  Tennessee,  where  he  died  in  1839,  and  his 
wife  died  soon  after.  He  left  four  children,  all  of  whom 
died  without  issue. 

The  assumption  that  Francis  Marion  Cloyd,  No.  229, 
was  a  son  of  James  Marshall  Cloyd,  is  therefore  er- 
roneous. In  support  of  the  above  statement  the  follow- 
ing letter  is  presented: 

Halls,  Tenn.,  Jan.  22,   1913. 

A.  D.  Cloyd,  M.  D., 
Omaha,  Nebr. 

Dear  Sir: 

I  am  a  grandson  of  John  Cloyd  mentioned  on  page  120  of 
your  book.  I  was  born  in  1844.  My  mother's  name  was  Martha 
Spencer  Cloyd  and  not  Amelia,  as  you  have  it.  She  married  Joseph 
Plelding  Sharp,  my  father,  in  Fayette  County,  Tennessee,  in  1836, 
and  had  four  boys  and  one  girl.  Fannie,  the  daughter,  married 
John  M.  McFadden  and  resides  in  Memphis.  The  sons  were  named 
Rufus  Burton,  John  Cloyd,  James  Trice  and  Joseph  Spencer.  They 
are  all  dead  except  myself. 

In  regard  to  my  great-uncle,  James  Marshall  Cloyd  and  his 
family,  I  can  give  you  the  following: 

James  Marshall  Cloyd  married  my  father's  sister.  Miss  L.  F. 
Sharp.  She  died  soon  after  his  death  In  1839.  I  remember  of  my 
father's  oldest  sister  telling  me  in  1869  of  their  death  and  that  she 
lost  her  first  husband  about  the  same  time  with  the  same  disease. 
The  fourth  child  mentioned  in  the  letter  of  great-grand-father, 
David  Cloyd,  on  page  108,  a  baby  girl,  died  at  a  very  early  age.  I 
knew  the  other  three  children  well  from  1855  to  1865'.  They  were 
Malissa,  Ezeklel  and  James.  My  father  raised  Ezeklel  In  part. 
He  was  a  doctor  and  died  in  Little  Rock,  leaving  a  large  estate  but 
no  children.  James,  the  younger  boy,  was  a  farmer  and  died  at 
Augusta,  Ark.,  about  1870,  and  Malissa  died  at  the  same  place 
about  187^.  James  and  Malissa  both  married  Raineys  and  neither 
left  any  children.  Yours  sincerely, 

Jos.  S.  Sharp.

earliest  Presbyterian  ministers,  a  Mason  of  more  than 
fifty  years'  standing,  an  Odd  Fellow  for  more  than 
forty  years,  and  a  man  of  unusual  literary  attainments, 
fell  unconscious  in  his  yard  at  6 130  o'clock  this  morn- 
ing while  feeding  his  chickens,  and  died  before  medical 
aid  could  reach  him.  Rev.  Mr.  Cloyd  was  73  years  of 
age  and  a  Confederate  veteran,  being  chaplain  of  Throck- 
morton Camp,  U.  C.  v.,  of  McKinney." — McKinney,

Explanation 


The  collection  of  the  information  in  this  book  was  the  re- 
sult of  circumstances.  Like  the  majority  of  individuals  the 
compiler  had  no  thought  of  or  care  for  his  ancestry  until  one  day 
in  1891,  he  received  a  letter  from  Dr.  Thos.  Cloyd  Craig  of  Eas- 
ton,  Kans.,  making  inquiries  about  the  family  name,  Dr.  Craig 
having  seen  the  writer's  name  in  some  Medical  Journal.  In  a  very 
short  time  a  similar  letter  was  received  from  Dr.  W.  H.  Long  of 
Haddonfield,  N.  J.  Following  the  correspondence  with  these 
two  gentlemen  an  interest  in  family  history  was  aroused  and  the 
correspondence  gradually  extended  to  other  parties  and  to  other 
branches  of  the  family. 

The  gradual  unfolding  of  different  lines  of  the  family  his- 
tory proved  so  captivating  and  alluring  that  only  business  cares 
have  prevented  more  extended  research.  The  correspondence 
has  been  voluminous  and  has  extended  over  a  period  of  fifteen 
years.  Errors  there  are  undoubtedly,  but  fundamental  facts 
have  been  verified  by  incontrovertible  proof.  Government, 
county  seat  and  church  records  have  been  carefully  examined; 
historical  libraries  have  been  visited  repeatedly ;  every  genealog- 
ical work  of  any  bearing  has  been  scanned,  and  hundreds  of  let- 
ters have  been  written  in  the  effort  to  confirm  or  secure  informa- 
tion. Often  times  conflicting  testimony  would  be  received  from 
equally  qualified  persons,  increasing  and  making  more  difficult 
the  task  of  securing  accurate  records. 

To  all  who  have  so  generously  assisted  and  co-operated  with 
me  in  the  preparation  of  these  notes,  I  wish  to  express  my  pro- 
found appreciation.  Special  mention  is  due  Dr.  Thomas  Cloyd 
Craig,  Easton,  Kans.,  Dr.  Wm.  S.  Long,  Haddonfield,  N.  J.,  Mrs. 
Ellen  (Mendenhall)  Beale,  Parkersburg,  Pa.,  David  Cloyd  James, 
Madisonville,  Ky.,  Paul  C.  Cloyd,  Plainfield,  N.  J.,  Miss  Jennie 
Williamson,  Lebanon,  Tenn.,  I.  Walter  Basye,  Bowling  Green, 
Mo.,  Dr.  James  W.  Cloyd,  Mossheim,  Tenn.,  and  others  who 
have  assisted  in  every  way  possible.

The  collection  of  the  material  for  this  book  has  been  a  pleas- 
ure. It  has  occupied  many  spare  moments.  It  will  prove  in- 
teresting to  but  few,  yet  it  is  too  valuable  to  perish  with  the 
writer.  Its  publication  is  undertaken  without  the  hope  of  finan- 
cial reward.  The  pleasure  it  will  give  a  few  of  those  who  read 
will  be  my  recompense.  If  another  shall  take  up  the  work  at 
any  point  where  I  have  left  off,  I  shall  be  the  more  abundantly 
gratified. 

In  writing  the  history  of  the  Cloyd  family  in  America  an 
effort  has  been  made  to  harmonize  facts  with  traditional  reports 
but  not  always  with  success.  That  there  were  three  brothers 
who  came  from  Ireland  is  a  tradition  common  to  different 
branches,  of  the  family  widely  separated.  That  the  original 
immigrants  or  their  ancestors  were  in  the  memorable  siege  of 
Londonderry,  England,  in  1689,  is  an  equally  common  tradition. 
It  has  been  impossible,  however,  to  locate  the  particular  ancestor 
who  underwent  the  terrible  privations  and  sufferings  that  mark 
a  religious  war  which  forms  one  of  the  worse  stains  on  England's 
history.  It  has  been  equally  impossible  to  establish  the  identity 
of  the  three  brothers,  as  being  the  only  and  original  immigrants. 

It  has  been  well  established  that  the  family  came  out  from 
Ulster  the  northernmost  province  of  Ireland  in  which  London- 
derry is  situated.  It  is  evident  the  name  is  closely  associated 
with  that  of  Clyde.  Several  instances  can  be  adduced  where  a 
part  of  a  family  would  retain  the  original  name  Clyde  and  the 
others  take  the  name  Cloyd  after  coming  to  America.  Various 
claims  have  been  advanced  in  reference  to  the  original  name 
having  been  Cloy,  0 'Cloyd,  McCloyd,  McLeod,  etc.,  but  prepon- 
derance of  real  evidence  indicates  that  the  original  name  was 
Clyde. 

The  Cloyd  immigrants  were  pure  Scotch  though  they  were 
called  Scotch-Irish,  a  term  which  had  its  origin  in  the  fact  that 
great  colonies  of  Scotchmen  concentrated  in  Northern  Ireland, 
especially  in  Ulster  Province  in  the  17th  Century. 

Respectfully  submitted,

NOTE 

ORIGIN  OF  THE  SCOTCH-IRISH  SETTLERS  OF 
PENNSYLVANIA  AND  VIRGINIA 

The  following  is  taken  from  the  "History  of  the  Colony  and  Ancient 
Dominion  of  Virginia ' ',  by  Charles  Campbell,  published  by  J.  B.  Lippin- 
cott  &  Co.,  Philadelphia,  1860,  page  423:— 

' '  During  the  reign  of  Queen  Elizabeth,  the  dissatisfied  and  turbu- 
lent Province  of  Ulster,  in  Ireland,  suffered  pre-eminently  the  ravages 
of  civil  war.  Quieted  for  a  time  by  the  sword,  insurrection  again  burst 
forth  in  the  second  year  of  James  the  First,  and  repeated  rebellions 
crushed  in  1605,  left  a  large  tract  of  country  desolate,  and  fast  declining 
into  barbarism.  Almost  the  whole  of  six  counties  of  Ulster  thus,  by 
forfeiture,  fell  into  the  hands  of  the  king.  A  London  company  under  his 
auspices,  colonized  this  unhappy  district  with  settlers,  partly  English, 
principally  Scotch — one  of  the  wise  and  salutary  measures  of  his  feeble 
reign.  The  descendants  of  these  colonists  of  the  plantation  of  Ulster,  as 
it  was  now  called,  came  to  be  distinguished  by  the  name  of  Scotch-Irish. 
Archbishop  Usher,  who  was  disposed  to  reconcile  the  differences  between 
the  Presbyterians  and  Episcopalians,  consented  to  a  compromise  of  them, 
in  consequence  of  which  there  was  no  formal  separation  from  the  estab- 
lished church.  But  it  was  not  long  before  the  persecutions  of  the  house  of 
Stuart,  inflicted  by  the  hands  of  Strafford  and  Laud,  augumented  the 
numbers  of  the  non-conformists,  riveted  them  more  closely  to  their  own 
political  and  religious  principles,  and  compelled  them  to  turn  their  eyes 
to  America  as  a  place  of  refuge  for  the  oppressed.  The  civil  war  of 
England  ensuing,  they  were  for  a  time  relieved  from  this  necessity.  Their 
unbending  opposition  to  the  proceedings  of  Cromwell  drew  down  upon 
them  (1649)  the  sarcastic  denunciation  of  Milton.  (Milton's  Prose  Works, 
i.  422,  430,  437). 

The  persecutions  that  followed  the  restoration  (1679)  and  after- 
wards, at  length  compelled  the  Scotch-Irish  to  seek  refuge  in  the  New 
World,  and  many  of  them  came  over  from  the  North  of  Ireland  and  settled 
in  several  of  the  colonies,  especially  in  Pennsylvania.  From  thence  a  por- 
tion of  them  gradually  migrated  to  the  western  parts  of  Virginia  and 
North  Carolina,  inhabiting  the  frontier  of  civilization,  and  forming  a  bar- 
rier between  the  red  men  and  the  whites  of  the  older  settlements.  The 
Scotch-Irish  enjoyed  entire  freedom  of  religion,  for  which  they  were  indebted 
to  their  remote  situation ' '. 

There  was  an  exodus  of  Scotch-Irish  from  Pennsylvania  to  Virginia 
which  began  about  1732.  They  were  good  Presbyterians,  and  as  soon 
as  they  had  built  their  houses  they  proceeded  to  build  churches;  and  the 
"Tuscarora  Meeting  House",  was  near  Martinsburg,  and  the  "Opeqnon 
Church"  a  little  south  of  Winchester.  The  first  Presbyterian  minister 
settling  west  of  the  Blue  Ridge  was  the  Rev.  John  Craig,  a  native  of  the 

9 


North  of  Ireland.  In  1840  he  became  pastor  of  the  ' '  Stone  Meeting 
House",  afterwards  called  "Augusta  Church",  near  Staunton,  Augusta 
Co.,  Va.,  organized  in  1738,  and  settled  by  the  Scotch-Irish  from  Penn- 
sylvania, (descendants  of  the  Covenanters)  a  race  distinguished  for  their 
intelligence,  energy,  morality,  and  piety.  In  1737,  John  Lewis,  a  native 
of  Dublin  Co.,  Ireland,  secured  a  grant  of  land  covering  half  of  what 
is  now  Eockbridge  Co.  To  settle  up  the  land  he  imported  upwards  of 
one  hundred  families  from  the  north  of  Ireland,  Scotland,  and  border 
counties  of  England.  Among  the  first  settlers  of  this  Rockbridge  tract 
was  Ephrain  McDowell,  ancestor  of  Governor  James  McDowell  and  Colonel 
William  Campbell. 

There  was  an  unprecedented  movement  of  these  Scotch-Irish  to  America 
in  the  18th  Century.  The  first  great  movement  occurred  during  the 
quarter  of  a  century  beginning  in  1718.  Those  from  Ulster  entered  America 
by  three  routes,  one  at  Boston,  one  on  the  Delaware  river  at  Philadelphia 
and  Newcastle  and  the  third  at  Charleston,  South  Carolina.  In  1718  five 
shiploads  of  Scotch-Irish  arrived  at  Boston  and  settled  at  Londonderry, 
N.  H.,  to  be  followed  by  others,  and  many  of  those  already  in  America 
flocked  to  Londonderry  and  other  towns  in  New  Hampshire.  The  great 
majority  of  the  immigrants  from  Ulster  landed  on  the  Delaware  river, 
either  at  Lewes  or  Newcastle,  now  a  part  of  Delaware,  or  at  Phila- 
delphia. Over  5000  landed  at  Newcastle  in  1729.  Few  ships  bringing 
these  people  to  America  kept  passenger  lists,  leaving  it  impossible  to 
definitely  determine  when  any  particular  individual  came  over. 

These  settlers  gave  the  land  office  much  trouble.  They  persisted 
in  settling  on  any  tract  of  land  that  suited  them  without  paying  for  it. 
They  came  in  response  to  invitations  for  settlers  and  alleged,  ' '  it  was 
against  the  laws  of  God  and  nature  for  so  much  land  to  be  idle  while 
so  many  Christians  wanted  it  to  live  on  and  raise  their  bread ' '. 

After  the  fertile  lands  in  East  Pennsylvania  were  occupied,  those  who 
landed  on  the  Delaware  river  turned  their  course  westward  and  southward, 
settling  in  the  Cumberland  and  Shenandoah  Valleys  of  Virginia,  about 
1735,  and  in  1750  into  North  Carolina  and  later  into  Tennessee.  Many 
of  those  who  settled  in  Chester  Co.,  Pa.  and  Newcastle  Co.,  Delaware,  after 
a  few  years  pushed  on  into  the  Shenandoah  valley. 

The  Scotch-Irish  immigrants  to  this  country  were,  generally  speak- 
ing, men  of  splendid  physique  and  marked  mental  characteristics;  qualities 
transmitted  to  their  posterity  to  a  notable  degree.  They  were  plain, 
industrious,  frugal,  devout  and  religious,  possessing  high  ideals  of  morality 
and  integrity.  Their  zeal  for  education  caused  them  to  found  many 
schools  and  produce  many  school  masters.  Religion,  Virtue  and  Knowledge 
were  their  three  ruling  passions.  They  were  forced  from  Ireland  mainly 
on  account  of  their  religious  views  and  in  gaining  religious  liberty  in 
Amerca  they  were  ready  to  grant  it  to  others. 

The  immigrant  ancestors  of  the  Cloyd  family  were  of  this  class.  That 
they  came  during  the  flood  time  of  Scotch-Irish  immigration  is  indicated 
by  the  fact  that  the  earliest  records  appear  during  that  time.

Supplement  to  Section  One 


CLOYD-TEMPLETON  BRANCH 


Contributed  by  Dr.  W.  S.  Long. 

We  now  come  to  another  member  of  the  Cloyd  family,  whose 
parentage  is  unknown  to  us  and  whose  relationship  to  James 
Cloyd,  of  Whiteland,  or  to  the  Virginia  family  cannot  at  the 
present  time  be  determined. 

Prior  to  1746,  Elizabeth  Cloyd  married  John  Templeton. 
May  6,  1752,  (Deed  Book  H8,  p.  493,  Westchester)  John  Tem- 
pleton of  Whiteland,  Malster,  bought  160  acres  in  same  town- 
ship. It  would  seem  more  than  a  coincidence  that  within  four 
days,  he  and  James  Cloyd,  undoubtedly  a  relative  of  his  wife, 
should  buy  farms  in  the  same  neighborhood.  John  Templeton 
was  a  successful  man  of  affairs.  He  was  a  Captain  of  Militia 
in  the  Revolutionary  War,  enlisting  for  three  months,  and  re- 
maining nine.  His  sons,  John  and  Alexander,  were  also  in  the 
service,  the  former  was  taken  with  Camp  Fever  and  soon  left 
the  army,  the  latter  attaining  the  rank  of  Captain. 

During  the  terrible  winter  at  Valley  Forge,  a  company  of 
our  soldiers  was  stationed  at  his  farm  and  received  shelter  and 
fuel,  as  to  food  he  had  none  to  give,  as  the  British  Army  had 
destroyed  all  his  crops.  In  a  list  of  people  who  had  suffered 
from  the  depredations  of  the  enemy,  his  losses  are  placed  at 
291£  2s.  6d. — more  than  any  other  in  East  Whiteland  Town- 
ship. 

His  will  dated  1793  was  probated  11-24-1795,  shows  that 
he  had  m.  2nd,  Martha  (Jones?)  Her  will  in  1810  named  her 
"Brother  Abednego  Jones."

*William  Long  was  son  of  John  and  Martha  Long,  of  Cain  Township, 
who  came  from  County  Donegal,  Ireland,  bringing  the  following  certificate, 
which  is  given  entire,  on  account  of  its  rarity.  All  good  Presbyterian 
families  brought  such  certificates,  but  having  served  their  purpose  they 
were  destroyed  and  very  few  are  discoverable  today. 

"Whereas  the  bearers  hereof,  John  long  and  his  wife,  design  for 
America,  these  are  to  Certify  that  they  have  lived  in  this  Congregation 
the  most  part  of  their  time  and  still  behaved  themselves  Soberly  and  now 
at  their  departure  from  hence  are  free  of  all  publick  Scandall  known  to 
us,  as  witness  my  hand  this  8th  day  of  July,  1736.

Descendants  of  David  Cloyd,  Immigrant  No.  3 

3.  DAVID  CLOYD,  supposed  to  have  been  the  son  of  James,  1, 
of  Chester  County,  Pa.,  m.  Margaret  Campbell.  The  first  legal 
record  of  his  residence  in  America  is  found  in  the  purchase  of  a 
tract  of  land  in  New  Castle  County,  Pa.,  now  a  part  of  Delaware, 
from  Letitia  Aubrey,  a  daughter  of  Wm.  Penn,  which  he  and  his 
wife  Margaret  sold  in  1733.  It  is  not  known  where  he  lived  for 
the  next  twelve  years,  but  one  report  has  it  that  he  moved  to  Ver- 
mont where  he  lived  for  some  time.  This  same  tradition  also 
states  that  there  were  3  immigrant  brothers  who  landed  in  New 
England.  That  he  had  brothers  in  America  who  did  not  live  in 
Virgina  is  shown  by  the  fact  that  one  of  his  sons  at  a  later  date 
visited  Ms  cousins  in  the  north.  It  is  probable  that  he  remained 
in  Delaware  in  accordance  with  a  more  authentic  tradition  as  he 
sold  his  New  Castle  County  home  in  1749. 

In  1745  he  bought  400  acres  from  John  Buchannan  in 
Orange  County,  Va.,  in  what  was  afterwards  set  off  to  form 
Augusta  County,  and  later  in  1770  to  form  IMontgomery  and  in 
1776  to  form  Eockbridge  County. 

It  is  not  known  when  he  came  to  America,  nor  when  he  mar- 
ried. One  report  states  that  he  married  in  New  Jersey  and 
another  that  his  oldest  son,  James,  was  born  in  Ireland. 

The  following  facts  gleaned  from  ' '  Green 's  Historic  Families 
of  Kentucky ' '  bear  closely  on  the  time  of  his  coming  and  the  an- 
cestry of  his  wife : 

'  *  The  Journal  of  Charles  Clinton,  the  founder  of  the  historic  family 
of  that  name  in  New  York  gives  an  account  of  some  of  the  families  that 
sailed  from  Ireland  on  the  ' '  George  and  Ann ' '  and  the  ' '  John  of  Dublin  ' ' 
on  May  9th,  1729,  and  landed  in  Pennsylvania,  Sept.  4th,  1729.  In  the 
company  were  McDowells,  Campbells  and  many  other  families  which  set- 
tled first  in  Pennsylvania  and  later  in  Virginia. 

Of  this  number,  Ephraim  McDowell  and  his  sons,  John  and  James, 
arranged  in  the  Spring  o-  1737  to  settle  on  the  famous  "Beverly  Manor"

64  The  Cloyd  Family 

tract  in  Augusta  County,  Va.,  when  they  met  with  Benjamin  Borden, 
the  holder  of  the  famous  "Borden  Grant". 

Borden  was  required  by  the  conditions  of  his  grant  to  locate  not  less 
than  ]00  families  on  his  land  and  he  made  the  McDowells  a  tempting 
offer  which  they  accepted.  Complying  with  their  agreement  with  Borden, 
they  immediately  entered  into  communication  with  their  kindred,  friends 
and  co-religionists  in  Pennsylvania,  Ireland  and  Scotland,  soon  drawing 
around  them  other  Scotch  and  Scotch-Irish  families  among  whom  were 
the  Cloyds  and  Campbells. 

*  John  McDowell  married  Magdelena  "Wood,  whose  mother  was  a  Camp- 
bell, and,  as  tradition  has  it,  of  the  noble  family  of  Argyle.  Mary,  daughter 
of  Ephraim  married  James  Greenlee  and  James  McDowell  married  Mary 
Greenlee,  said  to  have  been  remotely  descended  from  the  Argyle  Camp- 
bells. 

James  McDowell  left  no  male  issue,  John  McDowell  has  two  sons, 
Samuel  and  James,  and  the  latter  married  Elizabeth  Cloyd,  daughter  of 
David  Cloyd  of  ' '  Beverly  Manor ' ',  whose  wife  was  Margaret  Campbell. ' ' 

In  1764  a  party  of  Indians  raided  the  house  of  David  Cloyd 
near  Amsterdam  in  Botetourt  County,  killing  his  wife,  Margaret 
Cloyd,  and  son,  John.  An  account  of  this  massacre  is  given  in 
Waddel's  "Annals  of  Augusta  County,"  written  in  1843  by  Mrs. 


*DOUGLAS  CAMPBELL,  of  Cherry  Valley,  N.  Y.,  born  Cooperstown, 
N.  Y.  July  13th,  1840,  married  Harriet  Bowers  Paige,  Dec.  5th,  1865, 
had  children;  William  Auchinbrecht,  Harriet  Mumford,  Maria  Stark- 
weather, and  Douglas.  He  was  a  distinguished  lawyer  and  served  as  a 
Major  in  the  Union   Army: — 

Son  of  William  Campbell  of  New  York  City  and  Cherry  Valley,  born 
in  Cherry  Valley,  June  10th,  1806,  died  Sept.  7th,  1881.  He  was  a  dis- 
tinguished lawyer  and  author,  member  of  Congress  and  Judge  of  the 
Supreme  Court.     Married  Maria   Starkweather  Aug.   13th,   1833. 

Son  of  JAMES  S.  CAMPBELL  of  Cherry  Valley,  who  was  born  in 
Cherry  Valley,  Nov.  9th,  1772,  and  died  there  March  23rd,  1870.  When 
six  years  old  he  was  taken  and  kept  a  prisoner  by  the  Indians  for  two  years. 
He  was  a  farmer  and  County  Judge.  Married  Sally  Elderkin,  Dec.  lat, 
1800,  and  had  seven  sons: — 

Son  of  SAMUEL  CAMPBELL  of  Cherry  Valley,  who  was  born  in 
Londonderry,  N.  H.,  Apr.  25th,  1738,  and  died  in  Cherry  Valley,  Sept. 
12th,  1824.  He  served  with  some  distinction  in  the  Revolutionary  War, 
married  Jane  Cannon,  a  native  of  Ireland  in  1768. 

Son  of  JAMES  CAMPBELL  of  Londonderry,  Ireland,  and  Lon- 
donderry, N.  H.,  and  Cherry  Valley,  N.  Y.,  who  was  born  in  Londonderry, 
Ireland,  1690,  died  in  Cherry  Valley,  N.  Y.,  came  to  America  in  1728, 
landing  in   Boston   where   he   remained   until    1735,    when    he   removed   to 


The  Cloyd  Family  65 

Letitia  Floyd,  wife  of  Gov.  Floyd  and  daughter  of  Col.  Wm. 
Preston : 

"One  day  in  March  1764  when  Col.  Wm.  Preston  had  gone  to  Staunton, 
Mrs.  Preston  early  in  the  morning  heard  two  gim  shots  in  quick  suc- 
cession in  the  direction  of  David  Cloyd 's  house  half  a  mile  distant.  Pre- 
sently Joseph  Cloyd  rode  up  on  a  plow  horse  and  related  that  the  Indians 
had  killed  his  brother  John,  had  shot  at  him  (the  powder  burning  his 
shirt)  and  having  gone  to  the  house  had  probably  killed  his  mother. 
Mrs.  Preston  immediately  sent  a  young  man  to  notify  the  garrison  of  a 
small  fort  on  Craig 's  Creek  and  then  dispatched  a  white  man  and  two 
negroes  to  Mr.  Cloyd 's.  They  found  Mrs.  Cloyd  tomahawked  in  three 
places  but  still  alive,  and  conscious.  She  told  of  the  assault  by  the 
Indians,  of  their  getting  drunk,  ripping  up  the  feather  beds  and  carrying 
off  the  money.  One  of  the  Indians  wiped  the  blood  from  her  temples  with 
a  corn  cob  saying  '  Poor  old  woman. '     She  died  the  next  morning. ' ' 

The  papers  in  a  law  suit  in  Augusta  County  in  1766  throw 
some  light  on  the  Indian  invasion  and  the  robbery  of  David 
Cloyd 's  house.  The  Indians  carried  away  over  200  pounds 
English  money.  They  were  pursued  by  a  party  of  militia,  one  of 
them  killed  on  John's  Creek,  30  miles  or  more  from  the  scene  of 
the  massacre  and  robbery.    One  hundred  and  thirty  seven  pounds 

Londonderry,   N.   H.,   and   afterwards   to   Cherry   Valley,    N.   Y.,   in    1741, 
married  Sarah  Simpson ; 

Son  of  WILLIAM  of  Cambelltown,  Argylshire  and  Londonderry, 
Ireland,  where  he  lived  and  died.  He  was  a  Colonel  in  the  siege  of 
Londonderry  and  w^as  descended  from  the  Campbells  of  the  House  of 
Auchinbrecht.     (Hughe's  American  Ancestry,  Vol.  8,  pp.  156-7.) 

The  Campbells  were  among  the  early  settlers  of  Eockbridge  County, 
Va. 

Martha  Orchard  Malatt,  Bloomington,  111.,  gives  in  Walker 's  Genea- 
logy an  account  of  nine  children  of  John  and  Elizabeth  Campbell,  three 
of  whom  came  to  America,  settled  in  Pennsylvania  and  later,  about  1744, 
near  Staunton,  Virginia. 

There  was  a  Margaret  Campbell  who  was  a  resident  of  Middletown, 
Monmouth  Co.,  New  Jersey  in  1716.  She  owed  a  Merchant  John  Browne 
an  account  at  his  death. 

Col.  William  Campbell,  the  hero  of  the  battle  of  Kings  Mountain 
Oct.  7th,  1780,  was  a  native  of  Augusta  County,  Va.,  and  moved  at  an 
early  day  to  Washington  County,  Va.  The  sword  used  by  him  at  the 
battle  of  Kings  Mountain  is  now  (1860)  in  the  possession  of  his  grandson, 
Wm.  Campbell  Preston  of  South  Carolina.  It  is  now  more  than  two  cen- 
turies old  and  was  wielded  by  the  ancestors  of  Col.  Campbell  in  Scotland 
in  the  wars  of  the  Pretenders.

were  found  on  the  body  of  the  dead  Indian.  A  dispute  arose 
among  the  militia  as  to  whether  the  money  belonged  to  them  or  to 
Cloyd.  The  money  was  finally  distributed  among  them,  all  of 
whom  except  one  James  Montgomery  returned  their  share  to 
David  Cloyd  who  thereupon  paid  each  of  the  men  five  pounds,  the 
reward  he  had  offered,  and  sued  Montgomery  for  the  balance, 
thirty  one  pounds  and  ten  pence.  The  suit  was  decided  in 
Cloyd 's  favor  but  Montgomery  took  an  appeal  to  the  General 
Court  and  the  final  result  is  not  known. 

A  negro  woman  named  "Dolly"  survived  the  IMassacre  at 
Amsterdam  and  lived  to  an  old  age.  ]\Iany  have  been  the  stories 
handed  down  about  this  old  negro,  her  scalped  head  and  indented 
skull.  The  "History  of  Southwest  Virginia"  by  Thomas  Bruce, 
published  in  1891  gives  an  incorrect  account  of  the  massacre,  stat- 
ing that  the  woman  killed  was  a  widow.  John  who  was  killed 
then  was  m.arried  and  reference  is  probabl.y  made  to  his  widow.

68  The  Cloyd  Family 

Second  Generation 

4.     JAMES  CLOYD,  b.  10-29-1731;  m.  Jean  ,  2-16-1764, 

may  or  may  not  have  been  the  son  of  David,  3.  Rev.  G.  S. 
Cloyd  a  descendant  of  Michael,  the  third  son  of  David,  3,  says 
that  Michael  was  born  1725.  If  he  is  correct,  the  James  whose 
family  is  here  given  should  be  regarded  as  another  immigrant 
ancestor,  and  indeed,  his  great  grandson  W.  G-  Cloyd,  Bement, 
111.,  says  he  was  born  in  Ireland. 

Recorded  facts  do  not  appear  to  agree  with  either  of  these 
gentlemen.  That  James  was  from  Rockbridge  Co.,  Va.,  and  that 
he  married  Jean  Lapsley,  daughter  of  Joseph  Lapsley,  Sr.,  may 
be  inferred  from  the  following  record:  "Deed  Book  C,  page 
232,  Lexington,  Va. ;  John  Lapsley  of  Lincoln  Co.,  Ky.,  as  at- 
torney in  fact  for  James  Lapsley  and  wife  Mary,  James  Cloyd 
and  wife  Jean,  and  John  Hall  and  wife  Mary  and  as  executor 
of  the  estate  of  Joseph  Lapsley,  Sr.,  deeds  certain  lands  in  Rock- 
briclge  Co.,  Va.,  near  Lexington.  The  deed  is  dated  Oct.  17, 
1795,  and  the  power  of  attorney  was  given  Aug.  10,  1790,  and 
recorded  in  Lincoln  Co.,  Ky. "  As  there  is  no  other  record  of 
David's  son  James  it  is  thought  safer  to  assume  that  the  James 
here  given  was  the  son  of  David,  3. 

James  Cloyd  received  from  Patrick  Henry,  Governor  of 
Virginia  in  1783  a  grant  to  881  acres  of  land  in  Jefferson  Co., 
Va.,  lying  on  Cloyd 's  Creek.  (See  Grant  Book,  0.  P.  517,  Rich- 
mond Land  Office.) 

James  and  Michael  Cloyd  were  privates  in  the  Augusta  Co. 
Militia  in  1758.     (See  Hennings  Statutes  at  Large,  Vol.  7.) 

James  Cloyd  and  wife  Jean,  supposedly  Jean  Lapsley,  had 

the  following.

5.  DAVID  CLOYD,  the  second  son  of  David,  3,  m.  Elizabeth 
Woods  and  d.  in  Augusta  County,  Va.,  1789.  His  will  is  on  file 
at  Lexington.  Elizabeth  was  a  dau.  of  Andrew  and  Martha 
(Poage)  Woods.  Martha  Poage  was  b.  in  Ireland  in  1728  and 
came  to  Va.  about  1738.  Elizabeth  Cloyd  d.  in  1797.  Her  will 
is  on  file  at  Lexington,  Va.,  proven  2-7-1797.

6.  MICHAEL  CLOYD,  the  third  son  of  David,  3,  d.  in  1805. 
There  is  a  question  about  the  date  of  his  birth  as  here  given  be- 
ing correct.  Rev.  G.  S.  Cloyd,  a  great  grandson  says  that  he  was 
born  in  1725.  As  James,  4,  who  appears  to  be  the  oldest  son 
was  born  in  1731,  and  as  Joseph,  11,  the  youngest  child  was  born 
in  1742,  it  is  presumed  that  Rev.  G.  S.  Cloyd  is  in  error  as  to  the 
date,  and  that  he  must  have  been  born  about  1735.  Michael,  m. 
Elizabeth  Nealy,  an  English-woman  and  lived  at  Amsterdam, 
Botetourt  Co.,  Virginia. 

Mitchell  Cloyd  received  a  grant  to  100  acres  of  land  in  1798 
in  Montgomery  Co.     This  is  supposed  to  refer  to  Michael.

70  The  Cloyd  Family 

7.  JOHN  CLOYD,  the  fourth  son  of  David,  3,  was  killed  by 
Indians  in  1764,  at  the  time  his  mother  was  killed.  An  inter- 
esting account  of  this  massacre  is  given  by  Mrs.  Elizabeth  Bul- 
lard.  She  writes  in  1892,  "Our  great  great  grand  mother  Cloyd 
was  killed  by  the  Indians.  I  think  her  maiden  name  was  Camp- 
bell. She  lived  at  Amsterdam  in  Botetourt  Co.,  and  while  the 
men  were  away  on  a  marketing  expedition  to  Richmond  the  In- 
dians made  a  raid  on  the  settlement  and  massacred  every  thing 
except  "Old  Dolly,"  a  negro  woman,  whom  they  left  scalped 
and  thought  dead.  She  recovered  and  lived  many  years." 
Writing  to  her  brother  Dr.  Thomas  Cloyd  Craig,  she  continues, 
"You  have  heard  our  mother  speak  often  of  seeing  her  alive 
when  she  was  a  young  girl  seven  or  eight  years  old.  Cousin 
Stephen  Cloyd,  when  in  here  about  two  years  ago  on  a  visit, 
spoke  about  seeing  the  same  old  negro."

Cloyd,  3,  m.  Mary  Gordon.  He  moved  from  Rockbridge  Co., 
Va.,  to  Montgomery  now  Pulaski  County,  and  settled  on  Back 
Creek,  the  place  being  still  in  the  possession  of  his  great  grand 
children.  (1903.)  It  is  related  of  his  wife  that  she  would  not 
consent  to  go  to  what  was  then  backwoods  country  unless  her 
husband  promised  that  as  soon  as  he  was  comfortably  settled  he 
would  take  the  necessary  steps  to  have  a  Presbyterian  Church 
built,  in  which  she  might  worship  after  the  manner  and  forms 
she  had  been  accustomed  to  do.  This  promise  he  fulfilled  in 
due  time,  and  the  New  Dublin  Church,  near  Dublin  Deport  still 
stands  as  the  result. 


72  The  Cloyd  Family 

In  1774  Joseph  Cloyd  was  honored  with  a  commission  as 
Captain  of  a  company  of  Militia  of  Fincastle  County  by  Earl' 
Dunmore,  Governor  of  Virginia.  In  1779  he  was  appointed  by 
Governor  Thomas  Jefferson  a  Major  of  Militia  in  Col.  Wm.  Pres- 
ton's Battalion  in  Montgomery  County.  He  was  in  the  battles 
of  Guilford,  Cowpens,  and  King's  Mountain,  and  was  promoted 
Colonel,  though  he  has  often  been  referred  to  as  General.

88.     The  following  account  of  MAJOR  JOSEPH  CLOYD 
is  taken  from  Dr.  Gray's  History  of  the  McGavock  Family: 

"JOSEPH  CLOYD,  son  of  David  and  Sarah  (McGavoek)  Cloyd 
was  born  in  that  part  of  Montgomery  which  is  now  Pulaski  County,  Vir- 
ginia, 5-11-1813,  married  Mary  E.  Byars,  5-23-1838,  daughter  of  Col.  Wil- 
liam Byars  of  Washington  county,  Va.  I  lived  in  his  house  two  years,  was 
his  pastor  six  years;  he  aided  and  befriended  me  in  times  of  trouble  and 
I  learned  to  appreciate  his  worth  as  a  Christian  and  a  friend,  his  use- 
fulness as  a  citizen  and  as  an  officer  in  the  church,  he  being  a  ruling 
elder  in  the  New  Dublin  church  (Presbyterian)  of  which  I  was  a  pastor 
from   1866  to  1872.       Major  Cloyd  was  one  of  the  most  experienced  and 


82  The  Clotd  Family 

successful  farmers  in  southwest  Virginia  and  was  one  of  the  first  to  in- 
troduce thorough  bred  Durham  cattle  in  that  section  of  the  state.  His 
excellent  judgment,  large  experience  and  untiring  industry  procured  for 
him  the  position  of  Purchasing  Agent  for  the  Southwest  District,  from 
the  Confederate  Government,  with  the  rank  of  Major  which  office  he 
ably  filled  until  the  close  of  the  war. 

His  wife,  Mary,  in  her  sphere,  was  his  equal  and  co-operating  together, 
the  good  estates  each  inherited  have  been  greatly  increased.  Not  blessed 
with  children  of  their  own,  the  children  of  others,  already  largely  bene- 
fitted by  them,  have  reason  to  rise  up  and  call  them  blessed. 

He   died   7-19-1884   and   his   wife   5-23-1892." 

It  was  near  his  home  the  battle  of  Cloyd's  Mountain  was 
fought  May  3,  1864,  and  many  of  the  wounded  were  cared  for 
at  his  home.     He  had  no  children.

this  to  say : 

"Few  men  in  Decatur  had  a  more  extensive  acquaintance  than  J.  G. 
Cloyd  both  in  the  city  and  county  and  throughout  Central  Illinois.  He 
had  been  traveling  for  the  American  Hominy  Company  for  the  last  eight 
years  and,  i^revious  to  that  he  was  in  business  for  himself. ' '

cated in  private  schools  at  home,  completing  a  thorough  course 
in  classics  and  higher  mathematics.  He  was  a  non-commissioned 
officer  in  a  well  drilled  military  company,  the  "Pulaski  Guards" 
and  when  the  Civil  War  broke  out  his  company  was  ordered  to 
the  front  on  the  17th  day  of  April,  1861,  as  Company  C,  4th  Vir- 
ginia Regiment,  Stonewall  Brigade. 

At  the  battle  of  Winchester  or  Kernstown  on  March  23,  1862,

90  The  Cloyd  Family 

in  a  battle  in  the  mountains  of  Kentucky  on  April  12th,  1864, 
but  made  his  escape  the  same  day.  When  the  news  of  Lee's 
surrender  was  heard,  his  brigade  was  on  the  march  to  Lynchburg, 
from  southwest  A^irginia,  the  brigade  was  disbanded  at  Chris- 
tainsburg,  20  miles  from  his  home  at  Newbern  and  the  men  told 
to  go  home  as  the  war  was  over. 

In  four  more  daj^s  he  would  have  been  four  years  in  the 
Confederate  army.  On  reaching  his  home  the  next  day,  he  hitch- 
ed up  the  horse  he  had  ridden  three  years  in  the  Cavalry  service 
to  a  plow,  with  a  mule  that  had  belonged  to  the  Confederate 
government,  and  drove  into  the  l)est  field  on  his  father's  farm, 
and  began  farming,  with  a  revolver  at  his  waist  and  slept  in  a 
bed  in  the  stable  at  night  to  protect  his  team  from  thieving  sol- 
diers, returning  to  their  homes  in  the  South. 

In  the  meantime,  he  studied  medicine,  with  his  father  as 
preceptor,  and  finally  graduated  from  the  Medical  College  of 
Virginia  and  was  appointed  interne  in  the  City  Hospital,  after 
a  competitive  examination.  This  position  he  held  18  months. 
He  then  took  over  his  father's  practice  at  his  home,  but  after 
a  year,  he  left  for  the  west,  and  located  at  Easton,  Kansas,  where 
he  has  been  in  continuous  practice  ever  since,  except  the  year 
1891  when  he  was  sent  to  the  legislature,  defeating  a  Populist 
and  a  Republican,  by  a  big  majority. 

November  10th,  1872,  he  m.  i\Iiss  Mary  Joseph  Tearney  at 
Leavenworth,  Kansas.  She  was  b.  at  Harper's  Ferry,  Va.,  and

Descendants  of  John  Cloyd,   Immigrant  No.   8 

1.  JOHN  CLOYD,  (Immigrant  No.  8,)  a  Scotchman,  came  to 
America  from  the  northern  part  of  Ireland  and  settled  in  Au- 
gusta County,  Va.,  in  1758.  He  had  been  preceded  by  at  least 
one  son,  Ninian,  and  was  accompanied  by  a  son  and  daughter, 
John  and  Mary.  He  died  on  or  shortly  before  Nov.  13th,  1759, 
and  David  Cloyd,  (immigrant  No.  3)  was  appointed  administra- 
tor of  the  estate  and  also  guardian  of  two  minor  children,  John 
and  Mary,  at  their  request  March  14,  1760.  The  appraisers  of 
the  estate  made  a  report  in  1764  accounting  for  personal  property 
sold  to  David's  sons  James  and  John,  Nov.  29,  1759. 

It  is  assumed  on  very  strong  circumstantial  evidence  that 
David  and  John  were  brothers,  altho  it  is  not  positively  known 
that  they  were.  David  had  been  a  resident  of  Augusta  County 
since  1748,  having  first  settled  in  New  Castle  County,  Pa.,  now 
Del.  in  1732.  If  John  was  a  younger  brother  of  David,  it  would- 
be  natural  for  him  to  locate  near  his  brother  David  and  that  his 
son  Ninian,  a  boy  of  nineteen  should  seek  his  uncle  when  he  came 
to  America,  although  he  had  run  away  from  home  as  has  been 
claimed.  Ninian  resided  for  a  while  in  Montgomery  Co.,  Va., 
and  when  his  family  was  grown  up,  went  with  his  sons  to  Mad- 
ison County,  Ky.,  and  later  to  Cumberland,  County,  Ky.,  where 
he  died. 

It  is  assumed  that  Samuel  was  also  a  son  of  John,  as  he  was 
closely  associated  with  Ninian  and  John  in  the  purchase  and  own- 
ership of  land,  they  making  several  joint  deeds.  Ninian  and  John 
bought  land  in  1761  and  sold  the  same  in  1763,  the  record  read- 
ing, "Samuel  Cloyd  and  Elizabeth,  his  wife,  and  Ninian  Cloyd 
and  Mary,  his  wife."  John  and  his  wife,  Margaret,  made  their 
first  recorded  sale  of  land  in  1765.

100  The  Cloyd  Family 

Second  Generation 

2.  NINIAN  CLOYD,  son  of  John,  1,  when  a  boy  ran  away 
from  home  in  Ireland  and  came  to  America.  His  father  and  the 
rest  of  the  family  coming  later,  about  1758.  He  bought  land  in 
Augusta  County,  Va.,  in  1761,  which  he  sold  in  1765,  when  his 
wife,  Mary,  whose  maiden  name  was  Kinkaid,  and  who  was  born 
in  Germany,  signed  the  deed  with  him. 

Ninian  Cloyd  in  1785  received  a  grant  to  380  acres  of  land 
in  Montgomery  Co.,  Va.,  on  west  side  of  New  River  at  the  mouth 
of  Back  Creek,  consideration  2  pounds  and  hay  for  settling  and 
adjusting  unsettled  titles  in  Washington  and  Montgomery  coun- 
ties.    (Grant  Book  S,  p.  343,  Richmond  Land  office.) 

He  resided  for  a  time  in  Montgomery  Co.,  Va.,  and  later 

went  with  his  sons  to  Madison  Co.,  Ky.,  and  later  to  Cumberland 

Co.,  Ky.,  where  he  died.     He  was  buried  on  the  homestead  of  his 

son,  Thomas,  with  whom  he  spent  his  last  days,  near  Cloyd 's 

Landing.  ^

4.  JOHN  CLOYD,  son  of  John,  1,  probably  came  to  America 
in  1758  with  his  father,  directly  to  Augusta  County,  Virginia. 
He  was  under  age  when  his  father  died  in  1759  and  required  a 
guardian,  choosing  David  Cloyd,  who  also  administered  his 
father's  estate.  He  married  Margaret  Scott.  The  records  of 
Old  Swedes  Church,  Wilmington,  Del.,  show  the  marriage  of  John 
Clyde  and  Margaret  Scott,  Aug.  12,  1758. 

Margaret  Scott  came  to  America  when  she  was  sixteen  years 
old,  with  her  uncle,  who  was  captain  of  a  ship,  her  parents  be- 
ing dead.  She  was  originally  from  Belfast,  Ireland,  and  in- 
herited 76  acres  of  land,  whereon  the  City  of  Belfast  now  stands, 
it  being  willed  to  her  "as  long  as  wood  grew  and  water  run." 
She  was  thought  to  have  consumption.  Her  uncle  returned  to 
Ireland,  to  dispose  of  her  property,  was  ship-wrecked  and  never 
heard  from  again.     Her  certificate  of  church  membership  in  Ire- 


The  Cloyd  Family  101 

land  preserved  for  many  years  and  in  the  possession  of  Rev, 
J.  L.  Alexander  of  Nashville,  Tenn.,  in  1862,  was  dated  August 
14th,  1758,  and  was  to  "Margaret  Scott,  alias  Clyde." 

It  is  a  tradition  that  she  was  in  some  way  related  to  the 
family  of  Sir  Walter  Scott,  who  had  relatives  driven  by  religious 
persecution  from  Dumfries,  Scotland,  to  the  Northern  part  of 
Ireland. 

Mrs.  Sarah  (Williamson)  Lester  of  Lebanon,  Tenn.,  a  great 
great  grand  daughter  of  Margaret  (Scott)  Cloyd,  has  in  her 
possession,  the  old  flax  wheel  on  which  Margaret  Scott  spun 
the  thread  for  the  linen  of  her  bridal  garments  and  also  for 
her  burial  clothing.  It  is  treasured  by  the  family  as  an  heirloom. 

John  Cloyd  bought  land  in  Augusta  County,  Va.,  in  1761, 
which  he  and  his  wife,  Margaret,  sold  in  1765.  In  1789  he  re 
ceived  a  grant  to  55  acres  of  land  in  IMontgomery  Co.,  Va.,  on 
Back  Creek  a  branch  of  New  River,  consideration  10  shillings 
and  a  certificate  in  right  of  settlement  for  adjusting  claims  in 
Washington  and  Montgomery  counties,  (Grant  Book  8,  p.  628, 
Richmond  Land  office. )  He  resided  in  Virginia  until  about  1789 
when  with  his  family,  some  of  whom  were  married,  he  moved 
to  Wilson  County,  Tenn.,  then  a  part  of  North  Carolina.  Fam- 
ily traditions  tell  of  the  numerous  hardships  they  endured  as 
pioneers.  His  son,  Ezekiel,  and  daughter,  Margaret,  both  of 
whom  were  married,  had  preceded  him  a  year  or  two  and  settled 
in  Wilson  County.  It  is  not  known  when  he  died.  Both  he  and 
his  wife,  Margaret  (Scott)  Cloyd,  who  died  near  the  close  of  the 
18th  century,  are  buried  on  the  homestead  of  his  son-in-law, 
John  Williamson,  which  is  now  in  the  possession  of  Miss  Jennie 
Williamson,  of  Lebanon,  Tenn.,  granddaughter  of  John  William- 
son. Her  grave  is  still  marked  by  a  limestone  rock  from  which 
the  inscriptions  have  been  effaced  by  time.

I02  The  Cloyd  Family 

The  following  letter  contains  interesting,  authentic  and  val- 
uable information : 

Lebanon,  Tenn.  July  24th,   1908. 
Mr.  D.   C.  James, 

Madisonville,    Ky. 

Dear  Sir: — 

On  a  recent  visit  to  the  home  of  J.  W.  Williamson,  he  showed  a  letter 
you  wrote  him  over  two  years  ago  in  regard  to  our  common  ancestors, 
John  and   Margaret    (Scott)    Cloyd. 

Margaret  Scott  Cloyd  is  buried  on  my  farm  in  the  old  family 
burying  ground,  where  seven  generations  of  our  people  have  been  laid 
to  rest.  I  am  the  youngest  child  of  the  youngest  son  of  John  and 
Margaret,  or  Peggy,  Williamson,  who  was  a  daughter  of  Margaret  Scott 
Cloyd  and  with  whom  she  lived  at  the  time  of  her  death  some  time  at  the 
close  of  1700,  I  do  not  know  the  exact  date,  but  my  deeds  show  that 
Capt.  John  Williamson  bought  this  farm  and  moved  there  in  1791.  The 
house  he  built  there  in  1800  is  still  being  used  as  a  tenement,  being 
built  of  solid  cedar  logs,  two  stories  and  is  well  preserved.  At  my 
father's  death  it  fell  to  me,  his  youngest  daughter.  I  have  never  sold 
it,  although  I  do  not  live  there  now.  Margaret  Scott  Cloyd  originally 
came  from  Belfast,  Ireland,  and  owned  quite  an  estate  there.  When  sixteen 
years  old,  she  being  an  orphan,  her  uncle,  who  was  a  Captain  of  a  ship, 
brought  her  to  America.  They  fearing  she  had  consumption,  he  returned 
to  Ireland  to  dispose  of  her  property,  she  owning  76  acres  of  land  where 
the  city  of  Belfast  is — which  was  willed  to  her  and  her  heirs  ' '  as  long 
as  wood  grew  and  water  run. ' '  This  uncle  was  shipwrecked  and  she 
never  heard  from  him  again.  She  married  John  Cloyd  at  some  place  in 
Virginia. 

At  the  time  the  Williamsons  and  Cloyds  left  Virginia  they  were  liv- 
ing on  New  Eiver  near  Wytheville  at  a  place  called  Max  Meadows. 
I  wish  I  had  the  records  here,  but  they  are  at  my  home  at  Green  Hill. 
However,  they  left  there  some  time  in  1780  and  came  with  John  Don- 
nelson  to  French  Lick,  that  is  Nashville,  when  this  was  still  a  part  of 
North  Carolina.  They  came  out  to  Clover  Bottom  on  Stoner  's  river 
and  made  a  crop.  That  winter  they  returned  to  Va.  for  their  families,  John 
Williamson  then  having  a  wife  and  two  daughters,  Sarah  and  Margaret 
and  I  suppose  Ezekiel  Cloyd  was  with  him  as  there  was  an  old  saying 
that  they  "swapped  sisters,"  that  is,  they  each  married  the  other's  sister, 
E?ekiel  marrying  Catherine  Williamson  and  John  W.  marrying  Margaret 
Cloyd.  Family  traditions  tell  of  the  numerous  hardships  they  endured 
as  pioneers  in  a  wild  country.  There  were  quite  a  number  of  children 
in  each  family. 

Hoping  this  will  find  you  well  and  you  may  get  some  facts  in  your 
search  in  family  history,  and  begging  pardon  for  the  liberty  I  take  in 
answering  Mr.  Williamson's  letter. 

Yours  truly, 

(Miss)    Jennie   Williamson.

Third  Generation 

6.  JAMES  CLOYD,  oldest  son  of  Ninian,  2,  and  Mary  (Kin- 
kaid)  Cloyd,  was  born  in  Augusta  County,  Va.,  2-21-1762.  He 
entered  the  Revolutionary  Army  when  he  was  but  four- 
teen years  of  age.  He  married  Rachel  Tilford  11- 
7-1791.  About  1790  his  father,  Ninian,  and  three  sons, 
removed  to  Madison  County,  Kentucky,  and  about  1807, 
leaving  his  brother,  John,  in  Madison  County,  he  removed 
with  his  father  and  brother,  Thomas,  to  Cumberland  County, 
near  Cloyd 's  Landing  on  the  Cumberland  River,  where  he  died 
3-26-1836.  His  wife  was  born  in  Madison  County,  Ky.,  9-8-1774, 
and  died  in  Cumberland  County,  9-2-1835.  He  was  a  farmer,  a 
Whig  and  a  Presbyterian.

kaid)  Cloyd,  was  born  in  Augusta  County,  Va.,  in  1771.  About 
1790,  his  parents'  entire  family,  it  seems,  moved  to  Madison 
County,  Ky.,  where  he  lived  the  rest  of  his  life  and  died  in  1833 
from  cholera.  He  was  buried  on  the  old  homestead  about  seven 
miles  southeast  of  Richmond  and  the  epitaph  placed  on  his 


104  The  Cloyd  Family 

tombstone  is  very  complimentary  of  him  as  a  man  and  a  neigh- 
bor. He  was  a  man  of  large  stature,  6  feet  tall  and  weighed  280 
pounds.  He  married  Mary  Reid,*  about  1790,  in  Madison 
County,  Kentucky.

12.     MARY  CLOYD,  the  second  daughter  of  John,  4,  was  b. 
9-24-1762,  m.  Alexander  Moore  at  Nashville,  Tenn.,  2-22-1798. 

Child  :

13.  MARGARET  CLOYD,  (b.  1-24-1766,  in  Montgomery  Co., 
Va.,  d.  10-3-1845,  in  Wilson  Co.,  Tenn.),  dau.  of  John,  4,  and 
Margaret  (Scott)  Cloyd,  m.  John  Williamson,  (b.  12-16-1764,  in 
Montgomery  County,  Va.,  d.  8-7-1829,  in  Wilson  Co.,   Tenn). 


*Among  the  pioneers  of  Augusta  County,  Va.,  were  three  brothers 
of  Scotish  extraction,  who  came  from  County  Down  in  Ireland,  where  they 
were  born.     They  were  Thomas,  John  and  Andrew  Reid. 

Thomas,  the  oldest,  married  a  highland  woman,  named  McKean,  and 
had  three  sons,  Col.  John  Reid  Jr.,  Nathan  and  Alexander,  Col.  John 
married  Martha  and  Nathan,  Sarah,  daughters  of  their  Uncle  John.  Alex- 
ander moved  to  Kentucky  and  he  or  his  son,  represented  Shelby  County 
in  the  legislature  in  1801.

14.  EZEKIEL  CLOYD,  the  oldest  son  of  John,  4,  and  Margaret 
(Scott)  Cloyd,  was  born  2-19-1768,  in  Augusta  County,  Va.,  in 
the  portion  set  aside  in  1776  to  form  Montgomery  County.  Aft- 
er his  marriage  to  Miss  Rebecca  Williamson  in  Montgomery 
County,  Va.,  9-24-1785,  he  resided  at  Max  Meadows  on  New 
River  in  Wythe  County  and  about  1789,  with  his  parents  and 
probably  his  three  brothers  and  two  sisters,  he  moved  to  Wilson 
County,  Tennessee,  then  a  part  of  North  Carolina.     His  sister, 


106  The  Cloyd  Family 

Margaret,  had  married  John  Williamson,  brother  to  Rebecca. 
The  two  men  having  "swapped  sisters"  moved  to  Wilson  county 
at  the  same  time. 

On  his  removal  to  North  Carolina  he  carried  with  him  sev- 
eral certificates  given  him  by  his  friends  and  neighbors  in  Mont- 
gomery Co.,  which  represent  him  as  a  "well  behaved  per- 
son" "a  good  member  of  society"  and  a  "patriot".  Rev.  J.  L. 
Alexander,  Nashville,  Tenn.,  says  that  his  grandfather,  Ezekiel 
Cloyd  was  in  the  Revolutionary  War  and  became  a  captain  (he 
was  only  15  years  of  age  when  the  war  closed).  Though  a  farm- 
er, he  entered  the  Ministry  of  the  Cumberland  Presbyterian 
Church  in  1814  and  according  to  the  custom  of  times,  he  labored 
on  his  farm  during  the  week  and  preached  on  the  Sabbath.  He 
lived  comfortably  and  was  always  able  to  extend  a  generous  hos- 
pitality to  his  friends,  especially  to  ministers. 

His  personal  appearance  and  bearing  were  those  of  an  un- 
affected gentleman  of  the  old  school.  His  example  and  presence 
were  a  standing  reproof  of  wickedness  and  vice  of  every  kind. 
In  the  latter  part  of  his  life,  he  was  subject  to  much  bodily  in- 
firmity and  mental  affliction,  but  his  strong  faith  in  his  God 
never  wavered.  He  died  in  Lebanon,  Tennessee  in  August, 
1851.  He  was  twice  married.  His  first  wife  died  prior  to  his 
ordination  to  the  ministry  in  1814,  and  he  afterwards  married 
Mrs.  Nancy  White,  widow  of  Rev.  John  White,  a  Methodist  min- 
ister, a  woman  of  great  worth,  who  died  also  in  Lebanon,  April 
17,  1854.     In  politics  he  was  a  Whig. 

The  foregoing  account  of  Ezekiel  Cloyd  is  taken  from  "Bio- 
graphical Sketches  of  Presbyterian  Ministers, ' '  by  Rev.  Richard 
Beard,  published  1867. 

Rev.  J.  L.  Alexander,  a  grandson,  writing  in  1901,  says,  "The  mother  of 
Ezekiel  Cloyd  was  a  member  of  the  Presbyterian  Church  and  so  the  son  was 
trained  under  Presbyterian  discipline.  About  the  year  1798, 
after  his  marriage,  he  came  under  the  scriptural  and  heart  searching 
preaching  of  Rev.  James  McGrady  in  Sumner  County,  Tenn.,  and  though 
a  member  of  the  Church,  he  became  convicted  that  he  was  an  unregenerate 
man  and  a  stranger  experimentally  to  God's  saving  grace  and  he  so  sought 
and  professed  regeneration.  My  mother,  then  fifteen  years  of  age,  pro- 
fessed religion  at  the  same  meeting.  Upon  the  organization  of  the  Cumber- 
land Presbyterian  Church,  he  became  a  candidate  for  the  Ministry  and 
was  licensed  to  preach  at  New  Hope,  Wilson  County,  Tennessee,  March 
30th,  1814. 


The  Cloyd  Family  107 

He  was  in  the  active  work  of  the  ministry  as  an  evangelist  and  as 
a  pastor  nearly  forty  years.  He  preached  often  and  labored  much,  even 
in  old  age,  in  vacant  churches  and  destitute  places.  He  delivered  two  hun- 
dred and  ninety-one  sermons  at  the  church  that  now  bears  Ms  name.  His 
character  was  above  reproach.  He  was  regarded  as  a  good  man,  a  sound 
patriot,  and  a  worthy  citizen  in  Virginia,  his  native  state.  He  was  a  captain 
in  the  Eevoution.  His  bearing  at  home  and  abroad  was  that  of  a  Christian 
gentleman,  his  dealings  with  his  fellow  men  fair  and  honorable,  his  manner, 
kind  and  courteous,  commanding  the  respect  of  friend  and  foe  alike  on 
account  of  his  firm  convictions  of  the  right. 

On  one  occasion  when  a  dance  was  to  be  held  at  the  home  of  a  neigh- 
bor and  relative,  he  entered  the  house  when  the  guests  were  assembled  and 
much  to  the  consternation  and  surprise  of  all,  with  hymn  book  and  bible  in 
hand,  sung  a  hymn,  offered  a  fervent  prayer  and  preached  an  appropriate 
sermon,  without  referring  to  the  purpose  of  the  gathering.  After  another 
fervent  prayer,  he  shook  hands  with  each  one  present,  inquiring  after  their 
welfare  and  returned  to  his  home.  Others  followed  his  example  and  the 
subject  of  dancing  was  scarcely  mentioned  in  the  community  for  half  a 
century. 

The  house  built  in  1800  mostly  by  his  own  hands,  from  hewn  cedar 
logs,  weatherboarded,  ceiled  and  painted,  still  stands  a  noble  specimen  of 
the  honest  and  faithful  workmanship  of  the  early  years  in  the  19th  century. 
He  owned  a  large  body  of  land  on  Stoner's  Creek  in  Wilson  County  on  which 
this  house  was  built.  He  gave  seven  acres  to  the  church,  on  which  were 
erected  a  house  of  worship  and  a  Camp  Meeting  shelter.  Camp  Meetings 
were  held  here  from  1813  to  1857.  Scores  and  hundreds  were  converted  at 
these  meetings,  many  of  whom  became  ministers. 

The  camp  ground  has  been  broken  up;  camp  meetings  are  no  longer 
held;  the  protracted  meeting  taking  its  place.  The  first  house,  a  small  one, 
of  cedar  logs,  was  replaced  by  a  small  brick  structure,  which,  in  turn  gave 
way  to  the  present  commodius  frame  house. ' '

108  The  Cloyd  Family 

16.  DAVID  CLOYD,  the  youngest  son  of  John,  4,  and 
Margaret  (Scott)  Cloyd,  was  b.  in  Montgomery  County,  Virginia, 
6-27-1771.  About  1789  the  family  left  Virginia  and  moved  to 
that  part  of  North  Carolina,  which  was  afterwards  set  off  to 
form  Tennessee.  David  settled  on  Whites  Creek  in  Davidson 
County,  about  seven  miles  northeast  from  Nashville,  while  the 
rest  of  the  family  settled  in  Wilson  County. 

March  17,  1795,  David  Cloyd  ra.  Sarah  Marshall,  b.  5-23- 
1773,  dau.  of  Gilbert  and  Martha  (Rowan)  Marshall.  She  d. 
1-18-1840.  Some  time  after  the  death  of  his  wife,  David  deeded 
his  farm  to  his  son,  Ezekiel,  with  whom  he  expected  to  spend  the 
remainder  of  his  life.  Ezekiel  died  in  1847  leaving  one  child 
and  a  widow,  who  afterwards  married  William  James,  whose 
first  wife  was  Martha  Cloyd,  Ezekiel 's  sister.  After  Ezekiel 's 
death,  David  made  his  home  with  his  son  John  in  Fayette  Coun- 
ty, Tennessee.  He  lies  in  the  family  burying  ground  near  Som- 
erville,  Fayette  County,  Tenn. 

Like  his  brother,  Ezekiel,  he  possessed  a  liberal  education 
for  the  conditions  under  which  people  lived  at  that  time,  and 
though  a  farmer  by  occupation,  he  was  a  minister  of  the  Meth- 
odist Episcopal  Church. 

Whites  Creek,  Davidson  County,  Tenn., 

August  18th,  A.  D.,  1839. 
Dear  Son: — 

After  my  compliments  to  you  and  yours,  I  am  again  permitted  to  com- 
municate with  you  by  letter  and  inform  you  that  I  am  now  in  health,  or  as 
much  so  as  could  be  expected  for  one  of  my  age,  and  I  hope  these  lines  will 
find  you  and  yours  enjoying  the  smiles  and  joys  of  a  kind  Providence,  sur- 
rounded with  health,  comfort,  peace  and  happiness. 

Your  Mother's  health  is  as  good  as  common,  tho  I  can  perceive  she  is 
on  the  decline  very  fast,  partly  in  consequence  of  the  trouble  she  has  lately 
had  to  undergo  about  her  children.  The  rest  of  the  friends  (as  far  as  I 
know)  are  all  well  at  this  time.  The  last  letter  I  received  from  you  was 
dated  April  7th,  in  which  you  requested  me  to  give  you  a  concise  account  of 
your  brothers  and  sisters  in  this  country,  which  I  will  now  undertake  in  a 
very  brief  manner.  John  Cloyd  is  now  living  in  Fayette  County,  near  Sum- 
merville  in  the  Western  District.  He  has  four  daughters  and  two  sons.  His 
eldest  daughter  is  married  and  doing  well.  They  were  all  well  the  last 
account.  He  owns  a  good  tract  of  land  there  and  is  well  pleased.  Mr. 
James  now  lives  on  Cruddles  old  place  by  McGaphoe  tovv'er.  Terry  has 
five  sons  and  four  daughters  living.  Eliza,  his  third  daughter,  is  dead.  His 
eldest  son  is  married.  They  are  all  well  and  doing  well.  Ezekiel  is  still 
living  with  me. 


The  Cloyd  Family  109 

James  M.  Cloyd  settled  in  Hardymon  County  in  the  Western  District, 
but  now  I  come  to  tell  you  the  hardest  of  all.  On  the  12th  of  June  last  he 
departed  this  life  after  an  illness  of  six  days.  His  complaint  was  flux  and 
fever.  He  has  left  a  disconsolate  wife,  two  sons  and  two  daughters  to 
deplore  their  loss.  His  death  was  a  very  severe  trial  on  me,  and  one  I  was 
very  illy  prepared  to  encounter,  as  it  was  the  first  of  the  kind  I  ever  met 
with,  but  I  bear  up  with  as  much  fortitude  as  I  can,  when  I  consider  it  is 
a  debt  we  all  have  to  pay,  and  our  loss  is  His  gain.  It  does  console  me  some, 
for  he  died  shouting  "Glory,  Glory,"  in  prospect  of  a  happy  immortality. 
He  was  a  zealous  Christian  and  an  Elder  in  the  Cumberland  Presbyterian 
Church.  He  requested  his  friends  all  to  meet  him  in  Heaven.  His  wife 
has  a  home  and  a  negro  girl  to  assist  her  in  raising  her  little  children. 

Mr.  P.  Cloyd  is  now  living  at  John's  old  place  until  he  gets  his  build- 
ing erected  on  his  own  land.  His  health  is  not  good,  tho  he  bids  fair  to 
make  a  good  living.  He  and  his  wife  are  both  very  industrious.  They  have 
one  son. 

John  C.  Marshall  and  Eliza  Jane  live  in  "Wilson  County,  near  States- 
ville.  They  are  now  on  a  visit  at  my  house.  They  are  well.  They  have  two 
sons  and  two  daughters  living  and  one  son  dead.  They  are  making  a  toler- 
able living. 

Margaret  in  her  last  letter  informed  me  that  you  have  got  you  another 
companion.  As  to  that  matter  you  know  your  business  better  than  I  do,  tho 
I  hope  she  will  make  you  as  good  a  one  as  your  other.  Present  my  best 
wishes  and  respects  to  her  as  my  daughter. 

As  to  my  own  domestic  concerns,  I  am  getting  along  as  well  as  usual. 
We  have  a  good  crop  of  everything,  almost.  Wheat  was  excellent,  oats  also 
good.  Corn  is  very  good.  Fruit  of  every  description, — in  short  it  is  a  dis- 
play of  the  benevolent  goodness  of  a  kind  Providence  to  us  His  ungrateful 
children.  Our  state  election  is  just  over.  It  has  terminated  in  the  triumph 
of  the  self-styled  Democrats  in  the  election  of  Governor  and  Legislature, 
tho  I  am  a  Whig,  and  one  of  the  old  stamp,  a  true  friend  to  my  country. 
As  to  religious  matters,  times  are  rather  dull,  tho  I  am  still  determined  by 
the  grace  of  God  to  hold  out  faithful  to  the  end. 

Dear  Gilbert,  it  is  always  desirable  to  hear  from  my  children,  but  more 
especially  when  they  are  laboring  under  afflictions.  I  feel  great  concern  for 
Margaret  and  her  little  children  in  their  discrepod  situation.  From  what  I 
can  learn  it  is  quite  probable  Wiley  will  not  live  long.  I  feel  some  delicacy 
in  writing  to  him  or  her  about  what  had  best  be  done  if  he  dies,  for  fear  it 
would  hurt  his  feelings.  I  want  you  to  consult  with  her,  whether  she  would 
rather  come  to  this  country  again  or  not,  and  what  you  think  best  to  be  done 
for  her.  I  cannot  do  very  much,  tho  if  she  is  in  distress  I  will  do  all  I  can, 
and  I  can  do  enough  to  bring  her  and  the  children  back  to  this  country  and 
aid  them  in  getting  a  support  if  they  are  in  distress,  while  I  live,  but  I  am 
old  and  my  time  is  short,  and  what  would  become  of  her  after  that  I  cannot 
tell.  I  wish  you  to  consult  with  her  if  you  think  best,  and  send  me  your 
views  of  what  had  best  be  done,  and  delay  no  time  as  it  is  necessary  to  know 
these  things  before  Ezekiel  starts  to  that  country  if  he  goes. 


110  The  Cloyd  Family 

Give  my  kind  respects  to  all  your  children.  I  have  many  things  I  could

The  Cloyd  Family  121 

The  family  was  related  to  i\Iajor  John  James  who  was  with 
General  Marion  in  the  Revolutionary  War.  The  History  of  the 
life  of  Gen.  Marion  by  W.  Gilmore  Simms,  page  218,  refers  to 
five  James  brothers,  viz:  John,  William,  Gavin,  Robert 
and  James,  who  were  cousins  of  Major  John  James  and  says: 
"no  men  under  Marion  were  braver  and  truer  than  these."  One 
of  these  five  brothers  is  supposed  to  be  the  father  of  Thomas 
James.  Thomas  James  in  1793  married  Ann  White,  b.  2-9-1770, 
niece  of  Daniel  White  who  was  with  Marion. 

William  James,  after  the  death  of  his  first  wife  in  1847, 
married  her  brother's,  Ezekiel  Cloyd 's  widow,  Mrs.  Agnes  S. 
Cloyd,  whose  maiden  name  was  Campbell.  Of  this  union,  Volney 
James  married  Josephine  Fite,  has  three  daughters  and  resides 
in  Nashville.

Charles  and  John  Scott.  William  C.  married  but 
had  no  children.  He  was  connected  with  the  Nash- 
ville American.  He  died  Feb.  1909  in  his  70th  year. 
John  S.  is  about  67  yrs.  old  and  is  in  the  old  soldier's 
home  at  Norfolk,  Va.  (1909). 

203.  Ann  White,  b.  7-28-1821 ;  m.  Wm.  Stewart  Cloyd,  grand- 

son of  Ezekiel  Cloyd.  She  d.  about  1848,  leaving  two 
sons,  William  J.  and  Thomas  James.  The  two  sons 
were  in  the  Confederate  army  and  were  surrounded 
and  ordered  to  surrender.  Wm.  J.  refused  and  was 
shot  down.  Thos.  J.  surrendered.  He  now  lives  at 
McKinney,  Texas,  and  has  a  family. 

204.  William  Henry,  b.  7-24-1823  ;  d.  January  1899 ;  m.  Cath-

of  his  first  wife,  he  married  a  Mrs.  Bell,  whose  maid- 
en name  was  Terry  and  had  two  children,  Terry  and

60.  GILBERT  MARSHALL  CLOYD,  second  son  and  third 
child  of  David,  16,  and  Sarah  (Marshall)  Cloyd,  was  b.  3-10- 
1800,  near  Nashville,  Tenn.  When  twenty  years  of  age,  he  left 
Tennessee  and  turned  his  face  against  the  newer  West,  halting 
in  Howard  County,  Missouri,  soon  after  the  last  Indian  had  been 
driven  out. 

June  4,  1822,  he  m.  Malinda  (Linney)  Jones,  daughter  of 
Dr.  Aquilla  and  Lettie  (Hooper)  (Cooke)  Jones,  who  resided 
near  Glasgow.  She  was  b.  near  Nashville,  Tenn.,  Feb.  1,  1807. 
He  then  settled  on  a  farm  near  Boonsboro,  in  Boonslick  Township, 
noted  for  its  deposits  of  salt,  which  attracted  deer  and  furnished 
salt  for  years  for  the  early  settlers  of  Central  Missouri. 

His  wife  d.  7-17-1837,  leaving  a  family  of  ten  children,  the 
youngest  being  twins  two  months  old. 

In  about  two  years  he  married  Mrs.  Kate  Rawlston,  b.  8-5- 
1805,  d.  2-19-1877,  whose  maiden  name  was  Colbern  and  who 
bore  him  three  children.  She  was  a  native  of  Virginia  and  had 
been  reared  in  Kentucky,  and  had  married  three  times  pre- 
viously. Her  first  husband's  name  was  Bratton,  the  second 
Jones,  by  whom  she  left  a  daughter,  Elizabeth.  She  also  had 
a  daughter,  Harriet  Rawlston,  who  married  a  Mr.  Crowder. 

Gilbert  Marshall  Cloyd,  like  his  father,  in  religion,  was  a 
Methodist ;  but  differed  from  him  in  politics,  being  a  Democrat. 
His  father,  David  Cloyd,  was  a  Whig  of  the  old  stamp. 

In  1862,  against  the  advice  of  his  friends,  he  entered  the 
Confederate  Army  and  after  a  few  months'  service,  contracted

62.  MARGARET  CLOYD,  b.  5-9-1804,  dau.  of  David,  16,  m. 
Wiley  Jones,  brother  of  Linnie  Jones,  who  married  Gilbert  Mar- 
shall Cloyd.  They  were  married  in  1822  at  Nashville,  Tenn., 
and  immediately  removed  to  Howard  County,  Mo.,  with  Gilbert 
Marshall  Cloyd. 

Wiley  died  by  his  own  hand  in  1839,  being  sorely  afflicted 
with  cancer  and  despairing  of  relief.  Soon  after  his  death  Mar- 
garet with  six  children,  returned  to  her  father  at  White's  Creek 
near  Nashville,  Tenn.

Two  other  Daughters. 
Eliza  Jones,  m.  Chas.  Parker  in  Tenn.  and  returned  to  Mis- 
souri.    They  had  one  son  Jesse,  who  died  before  he  was  21  years 
old.     Parker  died  soon  after  his  son,  and  Eliza  m.  C.  H.  Manlove. 
Wm.  R.  Manlove  of  Nashville  is  a  grandson. 


63.  JAMES  MARSHALL  CLOYD,  son  of  David,  16,  married 
near  Nashville  and  removed  to  Hardymon  Co.,  Tenn.,  where  he 
died  6-12-1839.  He  left  four  small  children,  two  sons  and  two 
daughters.  No  positive  information  has  been  secured  about  them. 
It  is  thought,  however,  that  he  was  the  father  of  Francis  Marion 
Cloyd,  and  that  his  widow  married  twice  after  his  death,  as  she 
left  one  daughter  by  name  of  Griffith  and  a  son  by  the  name  of 
John  Nooner. 

Mrs.  L.  E.  Shearer,  New  Canton,  111.,  a  daughter  of  Francis 
Marion  Cloyd,  says  her  grandfather's  name  was  James  M.,  that 
in  the  '70 's  her  father  received  a  letter  from  Newton  Cloyd 
Beard,  telling  of  a  small  legacy,  still  in  the  hands  of  the  court 
in  some  place  in  Tennessee  and  which  he  afterwards  received. 
Mrs.  Shearer  claims,  however,  that  her  father  was  an  only  son. 

It  is,  therefore,  assumed,  on  what  the  writer  believes  to  be

Benjamin  and  Sarah  (Cloyd)  Alexander,  50,  m.  8-4-1858,  Sarah 
Jane  Wood,  b.  3-16-1836,  dau.  of  David  and  Annie  B.  (Brown) 
Wood  of  Wilson  County. 

The  following  biography  is  extracted  from  a  Nashville  paper, 
dated  August  18th,  1906 : 

' '  When  Rev.  Joseph  Lowry  Alexander  died  this  looming,  one  of  God 's 
most  constant  and  consistent  servants  passed  to  his  reward.  He  was  a  min- 
ister of  the  old  school  and  delighted  in  his  calling.  He  was  instrumental  in 
bringing  thousands  to  Christ  by  the  earnestness  and  effectiveness  of  his 
preaching. 

"He  was  pastor  of  Cane  Ridge  Church  in  Davidson  County  for  nearly 
twenty  years  and  was  also  pastor  of  the  Watkins  Park  Presbyterian  church 
and  the  Ninth  Cumberland  Presbyterian  church  in  Nashville  for  several 
years.  His  different  pastorates  extended  over  a  period  of  fifty  years. 
For  the  last  several  years  he  preferred  missionary  work  to  a  pastor- 
ate and  traveled  over  many  counties  preaching  nearly  every  Sunday.  It  was 
his  boast  that  in  all  his  life  he  never  missed  but  one  appointment  when  it  was 
possible  for  him  to  keep  it.  The  son  of  Godly  parents,  he  was  reared  in  an 
atmosphere  of  wholesome  piety  and  the  strength  of  his  Christian  character 
in  later  life  is  not  surprising.  His  mother  was  a  woman  of  rare  intellectual 
vigor  and  Christian  virtues.  She  was  the  daughter  of  Rev.  Ezekiel  Cloyd, 
one  of  the  first  preachers  licensed  in  the  Cumberland  Presbyterian  Church, 
which  was  founded  in  1810.

Mr.  Alexander  was  converted  at  a  camp  meeting  at  tbe  Stoner  's  Creek 
Church  in  1842,  when  only  thirteen  years  of  age,  entered  the  ministry  in 
1851  and  graduated  from  the  Cumberland  University  in  1856."

142  The  Cloyd  Family 

212.  DAVID  PRESTON  CLOYD,  the  second  child  and  oldest 
son  of  Gilbert  Marshall,  60,  and  Malinda  (Jones)  Cloyd,  was  b. 
in  Howard  County,  Missouri,  6-4-1825.  His  entire  life  was 
spent  in  this  county,  most  of  the  time  in  the  vicinity  of  his  birth 
near  Boonesboro.  He  was  a  farmer,  was  married  three  times 
and  raised  a  large  family  of  children.  Nov.  1843,  he  married 
Mrs.  Lutesia  Cason  Miller,  youngest  daughter  of  Geo.  Cason  of 
Howard  County.  She  was  born  about  1814  and  had  one  daugh- 
ter by  her  first  marriage,  Mary  Miller,  who  married  a  Lyons. 
He  married  his  second  wife  Sarah  J.  Minor  1-18-1848.  She  was 
a  sister  to  Mary  Minor  who  married  Jackson  Cloyd.  His  third 
marriage  was  to  Mrs.  Martha  A.  Maupin  11-16-1887. 

He  was  a  man  of  powerful  physique,  six  feet  two  inches  tall 
and  weighed  two  hundred  pounds.  He  was  in  feeble  health  for 
several  years  on  account  of  a  nervous  breakdown  or  paresis  and

The  Cloyd  Family  143 

213.  JOHN  WESLEY  CLOYD,  b.  9-4-1826,  near  Boonesboro, 
Howard  County,  Mo.,  son  of  Gilbert  Marshall,  60,  and  Malinda 
(Jones)  Cloyd,  m.  2-29-1849  near  Rocheport,  Howard  Co.,  Eliza 
Jane  Basye  b.  6-2-1826  in  Culpepper  Co.,  Va.,  dau.  of  Richard 
Taylor  and  Mary  (Tapp)  Basye. 

His  mother  died  when  he  was  eleven  years  old.  When  he 
was  about  thirteen  years  old  his  father  re-married  and  he  went 
to  live  with  an  older  sister,  Sarah,  who  had  married  John  Pat- 
rick. He  remained  with  his  sister  four  or  five  years  and  then 
lived  with  J.  W.  A.  Patterson,  near  Fayette  until  his  marriage 
in  1849.  While  with  Mr.  Patterson  he  learned  the  tanners' 
trade  and  received  twenty  five  dollars  a  year  for  his  services. 
After  his  marriage  he  engaged  in  farming  which  pursuit  he  fol- 
lowed the  rest  of  his  life. 

His  school  advantages  in  childhood  were  very  limited,  and 
yet  by  application  in  after  life  and  by  reading  he  acquired  a 
large  fund  of  information.  He  was  a  great  Bible  student  and 
read  the  Bible  through  repeatedly.  The  family  altar  was  main- 
tained in  his  home  until  his  family  was  nearly  all  grown.  He 
joined  the  Disciples  or  Campbellite  Church  in  early  life  and  after 
his  marriage  transferred  his  membership  to  the  Baptist  Church 
in  order  to  be  in  the  same  church  as  his  wife. 

At  the  beginning  of  the  Civil  War  he  attempted  to  maintain 
an  attitude  of  neutrality.  His  sympathies  were  naturally  with 
the  South  and  when  this  became  known,  and  after  an  attempt  on 
his  life  by  his  enemies,  he  entered  the  Confederate  Army  and  re- 
mained with  it  until  the  close  of  the  war.  In  October,  1864,  he 
enlisted  at  Glasgow,  Mo.,  in  Gen.  John  B.  Clarke's  Brigade,  a 
portion  of  Gen.  Sterling  Price 's  army  which  was  marching  South- 
ward through  western  Missouri.  His  oldest  son,  Willard  W.,  a 
lad  only  15  years  old,  a  few  weeks  before  joined  another  Com- 
pany of  Price's  Army. 

No  pen  can  ever  describe  the  emotions  that  must  have  rent 
his  breast  when  he  found  he  must  leave  his  wife  and  six  small 
children  at  home,  as  he  felt  his  life  would  be  safer  in  the  service 
than  at  home.  Driven  from  home  by  the  cruel  exigencies  of 
war,  he  found  some  comfort  in  the  thought  that  he  might  be  near 
his  son,  not  yet  grown  but  who  had  experienced  a  burst  of  patriot- 
ism and  had  already  joined  the  army.  During  the  winter  of  '64 
and  '65  he  had  ample  opportunities  of  exercising  this  paternal 


144  The  Cloyd  Family 

care.  Price 's  Army  went  into  winter  quarters  on  the  Red  River 
near  the  Indian  Territory  and  Arkansas  State  line.  His  son 
Willard  was  stricken  with  malarial  fever.  The  father's  camp 
was  eight  or  ten  miles  from  the  hospital.  This  distance  he  cov- 
ered daily  on  foot  for  several  days  in  order  to  render  what  assis- 
tance and  attention  he  could  to  his  son.  He  succeeded  in  secur- 
ing an  order  to  have  his  son  transferred  to  another  hospital  near 
Washington,  Arkansas,  more  healthfully  located,  where  the  son 
soon  recovered. 

In  April  1865,  when  the  news  of  Lee's  surrender  was  receiv- 
ed his  command  was  ordered  to  Shreveport,  La.,  to  surrender. 
He  and  his  son  and  many  others  proceeded  to  Pine  Bluff,  Ark 
however,  it  being  in  the  direction  of  home,  and  surrendered  to 
Gen.  Powell  Clayton  and  were  immediately  parolled.  No  time 
was  lost  in  returning  to  his  family  and  home  in  Howard  Co.,  Mo., 
which  they  reached  some  time  in  May. 

He  was  a  man  about  5  ft.  9  in.  tall  and  weighed  200  to  225 
pounds.  Dark  hair,  but  not  black,  and  dark  brown  eyes  showed 
the  crossing  of  his  Scotch-Irish  ancestry  with  other  stock.  Hon- 
est to  a  fault  he  built  up  a  reputation  for  integrity  second  to 
none.  Affectionate  and  kind  to  his  family,  no  such  thing  as  dis- 
cord ever  entered  his  home.  He  was  loved  by  his  children  with 
an  exceptional  filial  devotion. 

The  following  extract  from  a  letter  written  by  a  nephew 
who  had  known  his  uncle  long  and  intimately  is  a  fitting  testi- 
monial to  the  character  of  the  man. 

W.  W.  Cloyd,  New  Birmingham,  Texas,  June  8,  1891. 

Fayette,  Mo. 
Dear  Cousin : — 

I  was  truly  shocked  by  the  sad  intelligence  contained  in  your  favor  of 
the  20th,  of  the  sudden  death  of  Uncle  John,  and  I  scarcely  have  language 
to  convey  to  you  my  sorrow  at  this  news.  But  while  this  grieves  me  most 
deeply  there  is  a  most  cheering  thought  in  a  review  of  the  noble  and  exem- 
plary Christian  life  of  the  beloved  departed  one.  It  is  rare  indeed  that  men 's 
lives  are  so  uniformly  pure  and  upright,  both  as  Christian  men  and  as  pure 
and  honored  citizens.  And  when  we  reflect  that  our  ultimate  destiny  is  his, 
and  also  that  it  is  inevitable,  we  may  be  permitted  to  feel  a  just  pride  in 
his  life's  record.  Few  men  can  boast  purer  and  truly  nobler  ancestors  or 
kinsman.  After  a  life  now  nearing  the  half  cei>tury-post,  and  a  busy  one 
too,  mingling  with  people  of  all  classes  and  notions,  I  have  rarely  if  ever 
met  his  equal,  and  never  his  superior  in  these  qualities;  and  surely  if  his 
life  is  not  worthy  of  emulation  then  none  is.

The  Cloyd  Family  145 

Please  assure  Dear  Aunt  Eliza  and  all  the  family  of  my  sincerest  sym- 
pathies, and  point  them  to  the  life  of  him  whom  they  mourn  as  a  bright  and 
steadfast  beacon  to  guide  them  through  the  remainder  of  life's  journey. 
May  his  precepts  ever  be  fresh  to  our  memories  to  guide  us  on  the  straight 
way. 

Believe  me  your  affectionate  cousin, 

Wm.   C.   Cloyd. 

-  John  W.  Cloyd  died  5-30-1891,  and  was  buried  at  the  old

422,  WILLIAM  CASON  CLOYD,  was  b.  near  Glasgow,  How- 
ard Co.,  Mo.,  9-16-1844.  He  was  the  only  son  of  David  Preston 
Cloyd,  212,  by  his  marriage  to  Mrs.  Lutesia  (Cason)  Miller. 
His  mother  died  when  he  was  about  one  year  old.  He  was  edu- 
cated in  the  public  schools  and  when  the  Civil  War  broke  out, 
he  enlisted  in  the  Confederate  Army  and  served  throughout 
the  war. 

Soon  after  returning  from  the  war,  he  located  at  Seward, 
Neb.,  and  became  prominently  identified  with  the  business  in- 
terests of  that  growing  town.  ' '  Cloyd 's  Addition ' '  to  Seward  is 
on  land  once  owned  by  him.  For  many  years  he  was  editor  and 
proprietor  of  the  Nebraska  Herald,  one  of  the  leading  democratic 
papers  of  the  state. 

While  in  Seward,  he  married  Mary  B.  Simcoke,  who  was  b. 
at  Decatur,  Ind.,  and  two  daughters  followed  the  union. 

In  the  Fall  of  1875,  he  returned  to  his  former  home  in 
Missouri,  having  sustained  severe  financial  losses.  He  clung 
to  his  newspaper  work  and  was  connected  with  the  Sedalia  (Mo.) 
Star  for  some  time.  After  this  he  tried  his  fortune  in  Florida, 
then  in  Louisiana,  and  later  in  Texas,     In  October,  1880,  at 


The  Cloyd  Family  165 

Opelousas,  La.,  he  married  Miss  Fanny  Virginia  Summers  of 
Jacksonville,  Fla.  He  is  a  democrat  and  a  Christian.  He  is 
now  (1909)  Secretary  of  the  Commercial  Club  at  Rusk,  Texas, 
and  is  also  engaged  in  newspaper  work. 

The  following  is  a  brief  account  of  his  experience  in  the 
Civil  War : 

"At  the  beginning  of  the  war  he  resided  in  Holt  County, 
Mo.,  with  his  father.  The  news  of  the  first  victories  of  the  Con- 
federate forces  in  Virginia  and  of  those  nearer  home  in  the  first 
campaign  in  Missouri  soon  fired  the  martial  spirit  in  his  ardent 
young  nature,  and  one  evening  in  1861,  in  company  with  several 
neighbor  boys  of  his  own  age  he  quietly  slipped  away  from  home 
and  joined  General  Price's  army.  Like  his  companions  he  had 
little  idea  what  war  was  to  be.  He  received  his  first  baptism  of 
fire  at  the  battle  of  Lexington,  (Mo.). 

After  the  battle  of  Lexington,  he  enlisted  in  Company  C, 
1st  Mo.  Cavalry,  C.  S.  A.,  under  Colonel  Elijah  Gates  of  St. 
Joseph.  Of  this  regiment  of  nearly  1100  men  less  than  200  ever 
returned  home.  Throughout  the  four  years  of  civil  strife  he  was 
with  his  company  in  many  of  the  most  hotly  contested  battles 
in  the  campaign  in  Mississippi,  at  Corinth,  luka,  and  the  siege 
of  Vicksburg.  After  the  surrender  of  Vicksburg  he  was  ex- 
changed and  joined  a  command  under  General  Joseph  E.  John- 
ston, and  being  separated  from  his  command  one  day  he  made 
his  was  across  the  Mississippi  River  and  rejoined  Price's  com- 
mand in  Arkansas  with  which  he  remained  until  the  close  of 
the  war."

Experiences  of  W.  W.  Clotb  With  The  Army  of  General  Sterling  Price 
In  The  Great  American  Civil  War. 

In  the  fall  of  1864,  when  I  was  two  months  under  fifteen  years  of  age, 
in  company  with  several  neighbor  boys  of  my  age,  among  whom  were,  E.  E. 
Turner,  Thos.  Snell,  O.  G.  Willis,  Joseph  Pearson  and  Wm.  Humphrey,  I 
decided  to  join  Gen.  Price 's  army.  Captain  Heber  Price  with  about  twenty 
men  from  Col.  William's  regiment,  which  had  crossed  the  Missouri  Eiver  at 
Boonville  to  gather  up  recruits  on  the  North  side  of  the  river,  appeared  in 
our  neighborhood  October  14th,  1864,  and  took  dinner  at  the  house  of  J. 
Milton  Moon. 

Bidding  my  father  and  mother  and  family  an  affectionate  adieu,  I 
mounted  my  horse  and  rode  away  to  join  Price's  army.  The  recruits  assem- 
bled about  half  a  mile  from  my  home  between  the  farms  of  John  Stinnian 
and  Wm.  Gates.  Captain  Price  lined  up  the  recruits  and  commanding  us  to 
take  off  our  hats  and  hold  up  our  right  hands,  gravely  swore  us  into  Con- 
federate States  army  for  three  years  during  the  War. 

My  mother  had  followed  me  to  this  point  and  again  bid  me  a  tender 
good  bye,  admonished  me  to  be  a  good  boy  and  to  "Always  remember  that 
your  mother  is  praying  for  you. ' '  Brushing  aside  a  tear,  I  rode  away. 
About  ten  o'clock  that  night  we  came  up  with  Col.  William's  regiment,  con- 
sisting of  about  400  men  in  camp  on  Burt  Huss '  farm  north  of  Glasgow. 

The  next  day  we  passed  through  Keytesville  and  Brunswick  and  crossed 
the  Grand  Eiver  at  Eocky  Ford.  At  daylight,  on  the  morning  of  the  16th 
we  drew  up  in  front  of  Carrolton  where  there  were  about  300  federals 
stationed.  We  captured  the  picket  and  his  gun,  a  Minnie  rifle,  was  turned 
over  to  me  and  I  took  my  place  in  the  line  of  battle.  After  a  short  parley, 
the  federals  surrendered  and  we  returned  with  them  to  Brunswick.  Captain 
Wm.  Daniels  and  a  detail  of  men  were  sent  back  to  bring  a  flat  boat  down 
the  Grand  Eiver  into  the  Missouri  Eiver  below  the  town  to  use  in  crossing 
the  command  to  the  south  side  of  the  Missouri.  As  the  boat  started  down 
stream  some  federal  bushwhackers  on  the  opposite  shore,  fired  on  the  party 
mortally  wounding  Captain  Daniels  who  died  that  night.  He  was  a  fine 
soldier  and  greatly  beloved  by  his  men. 

October  18th,  we  passed  through  Marshall,  Saline  county  and  reached 
Waverly  on  the  19th,  where  Col.  Williams  parolled  all  the  prisoners  except 
six  men  who  were  charged  with  murdering  Col.  Williams'  brother.  Leaving 
Waverly  and  passing  through  Lexington,  marching  all  that  night,  we  came  up 
with  General  Price's  main  army  at  daybreak  as  he  was  breaking  camp. 
Although  we  had  eaten  nothing  for  thirty-six  hours,  we  continued  on  the 
march  for  several  hours  longer.  We  were  finally  ordered  to  halt  and  have 
breakfast.  There  were  some  very  fine  beef  cattle  in  a  pasture  and  we  proceeded 
to  appropriate  one  for  our  use  but  before  we  had  time  to  dress  the  beef,  we 
were  ordered  to  the  front  in  double  quick  toward  the  Little  Blue  river  where 
Shelby  was  pushing  the  enemy  hard.  We  were  dismounted  and  marched 
across  the  Little  Blue  to  protect  the  left  flank  of  Gen.  Marmanduke  who  was

and  took  up  the  line  of  march  towards  Independence.     This  was  a  hard 
fought  battle  and  the  federals  left  their  dead  on  the  field. 

As  we  marched  through  a  beautiful  prairie  country,  I  witnessed  some  of 
the  effects  of  Order  No.  11.  Not  a  human  being  was  to  be  seen,  and  nothing 
had  been  left  that  could  be  carried  off  or  burned.  Stately  chimneys  were 
the  lonely  sentinels  in  this  now  desolate  country  that  a  few  months  before 
had  throbbed  with  the  pulses  of  prosperous  homes.  The  sight  of  this  desola- 
tion kindled  new  ardor  in  the  breasts  of  Shelby  's  men,  ajid  they  forgot  their 
own  privations.  We  cam]3ed  that  night  at  Independence  and  were  so  fatig- 
ued that  we  burned  our  boots  as  we  slept  around  the  camp  fire.  The  next 
morning,  October  22nd,  with  timorous  step,  I  approached  a  brick  house  where 
a  lady  gave  me  a  nice  warm  breakfast,  the  first  square  meal  I  had  had  since 
leaving  home.    It  was  two  months  before  I  had  another  one. 

We  maneuvered  all  the  next  day  and  at  night  bivouacked  in  line  of 
battle.  Activities  began  early  on  the  morning  of  the  23rd  and  we  had  plenty 
of  hard  fighting  during  the  day.  Little  Jimmie,  or  Charlie  Eothwell,  younger 
than  I,  while  riding  by  my  side,  had  the  top  of  his  head  torn  away  by  a 
cannon  ball.  We  had  to  leave  his  body  on  the  field.  My  horse  was  shot 
through  the  jaw,  but  soon  rallied  and  I  kept  in  line.  The  federals  out- 
numbered us  and  we  retreated  southward.  While  marching  next  day,  October 
24th,  I  fell  in  with  my  father  who  had  joined  Searcy's  battalion  of  Gen.  J. 
B.  Clark's  brigade,  the  next  day  after  I  left  home.  With  him  was  his  uncle, 
Wilkerson  Jones.  I  eagerly  inquired  about  the  honiefolks  and  father 
informed  me  that  he  and  several  neighbors  had  joined  the  army  as  they  were 
afraid  they  would  be  killed  if  they  remained  at  home. 

Price's  army  was  now  in  full  retreat  southward  through  the  western  tier 
of  Missouri  counties  with  a  body  of  cavalry  in  pursuit.  We  made  several 
stands  to  hold  them  in  check  and  protect  our  wagon  train,  a  part  of  which 
was  burned  on  the  26th  to  prevent  it  falling  into  the  hands  of  the  federals. 
In  a  fight  that  occurred  just  south  of  Newtonia,  John  Trigg,  who  was  next  to 
me,  was  shot  in  the  knee.  After  this  the  federals  did  not  pursue  us  any 
further.  The  command  continued  southward  along  the  border  of  Arkansas 
and  Indian  Territory. 

One  dark,  cold,  rainy  night,  while  returning  to  camp  from  picket  duty, 
my  horse,  weakened  from  inability  to  eat  on  account  of  the  wound  in  his 
jaw,  sank  in  the  mud  and  I  had  to  abandon  him.  I  was  now  afoot  as  were 
many  others.  Eainsoaked,  cold  and  exhausted,  I  sank  beside  a  log  fire  and 
slept.  I  became  separated  from  my  company  and  did  not  get  with  it  again 
until  after  we  had  crossed  the  Red  River  into  Texas  near  Clarksville  when 
the  command  had  gone  into  winter  quarters. 

In  January  I  was  taken  sick  with  fever  and  sent  to  the  hospital  at 
Fulton,  Arkansas.  My  father  had  been  transferred  to  the  8th  Missouri 
Infantry  which  was  camped  about  ten  miles  from  Fulton.  He  came  to  see 
me  every  day  for  several  days,  walking  the  entire  distance,  and  through  his 
efforts,  I  was  removed  to  the  College  Hospital  near  Washington,  Arkansas. 
I  was  a  very  sick  boy  and  I  have  always  thought  that  the  close  and  untiring 


The  Cloyd  Family  171 

attention  of  my  father  and  the  prayers  of  my  mother  saved  me  from  an 
untimely  grave  in  Arkansas. 

Recovering  after  several  weeks,  I  was  put  on  post  duty  at  Washington. 
There  were  about  one  hundred  and  fifty  prisoners  both  federal  and  confeder- 
ate confined  in  the  court  house,  the  federals  about  thirty  in  number,  occupy- 
ing the  second  story  and  the  confederates  the  lower.  I  learned  to  count  the 
hours  when  on  guard  duty  at  night  by  the  length  of  the  candles  as  they 
burned. 

After  several  weeks,  I  was  relieved  of  duty  and  decided  to  visit  my 
father  before  returning  to  my  command,  Shelby's  brigade,  which  was  in 
Texas. 

The  8th  Missouri  had  been  ordered  to  Lewisville,  about  thirty-five  miles 
south.  I  walked  half  the  distance  the  first  day  to  Spring  Hill  and  rode  the 
remaining  distance  the  next  day  on  a  government  wagon.  When  I  reached 
Lewisville,  I  found  my  father 's  company  was  in  quarantine  on  account  of 
small-pox,  about  8  miles  out  toward  Camden,  I  went  out  to  where  his  com- 
pany was  the  next  day  after  arriving  at  Lewisville.  O.  G.  Willis  was  with 
the  same  company.  The  men  seemed  to  be  having  a  general  good  time  and  not 
worrying  about  the  small-pox  which  was  a  ruse  to  get  away  from  camp  duties. 
Here  the  time  was  occupied  by  squirrel  hunting  in  the  day,  coon  hunting  at 
night,  escorting  the  girls  to  church  on  Sunday  and  occasionally  helping  some 
farmer  roll  logs  for  a  good  dinner.  I  partook  of  these  exercises  and  grew 
strong. 

It  was  now  the  last  of  April.  Lee  and  Johnston  had  surrendered.  Our 
cause  was  lost  and  we  began  to  think  of  returning  home.  We  were  ordered 
to  Shreveport,  La.,  to  surrender.  My  father  and  I  with  others,  however,  went 
to  Pine  Bluff,  Ark.,  it  being  the  nearest  way  back  to  Missouri  and  sur- 
rendered to  General  Powell  Clayton  and  were  immediately  paroled.  We  took 
passage  on  the  steamer  Rose  Hamilton  for  Memphis  and  there  boarded  the 
Marble  City  for  St.  Louis.  From  there,  we  went  by  rail  to  Renick  and 
walked  from  there  arriving  home  some  time  in  May.  I  need  not  attempt  to 
describe  the  joy  there  was  in  our  once  more  united  family.

Descendants  of  William  Cloyd,  Immigrant  No.  9 

1.  WILLIAM  CLOYD,  No.  9,  immigrant,  a  Scotchman,  born 
1751,  landed  in  Philadelphia  in  1774,  or  '75,  from  Ballymony, 
County,  Antrim,  Duchy  Ulster,  Ireland.  It  is  said  he  was  son  of 
James  Cloyd  who  married  a  Reed.  He  served  as  a  private  in  the 
Pennsylvania  Line  during  the  Revolutionary  War  and  was  pen- 
sioned in  1833.  He  also  served  as  a  private  in  the  Virginia 
Army  in  the  company  of  Capt.  Benj.  Biggs  at  Fort  Pitt  and  was 
at  the  battle  of  Brandywine. 

He  married  Jeanette  Barr,  daughter  of  James  Barr,  a  man 
of  wealth  whose  wife  was  a  Caldwell.  She  was  a  niece  of  Lady 
Jane  Barr,  a  woman  of  considerable  prominence  in  Ireland. 
She  followed  him  to  America  against  the  wishes  of  her  parents, 
and  kept  him  on  probation  for  two  years  before  she  married  him. 
She  was  nine  weeks  on  the  water.  When  he  learned  of  her  ar- 
rival in  Philadelphia,  he  walked  54  miles  one  day,  and  reached 
Philadelphia  by  4  o'clock  to  be  refused  admission  to  the  house 
of  her  cousin,  Charles  Stewart,  with  whom  she  was  living.  She 
met  him  at  the  gate  and  promised  to  marry  him  in  two  years 
if  he  proved  worthy  and  he  evidently  made  good  as  they  were 
married  at  the  appointed  time.  She  died  4-7-1814,  Washington 
Co.,  Tenn. 

After  the  Revolutionary  War  he  settled  in  Washington 
County,  Tennessee,  where  he  died  April  7th,  1837. 

There  is  no  information  as  to  his  relationship  to  David,  3,

Section  Five 


Clyde-Cloyd 

Daniel  Clyde,  Immigrant  No.   14 

From  a  brief  account  in  "Morrison's  History"  and  with 
the  assistance  of  Thomas  Cloyd  of  Webster,  S.  D.,  and  Paul  C. 
Cloyd  of  Plainfield,  N.  J.,  the  following  account  of  some  of  the 
descendants  of  Daniel  Clyde  has  been  prepared: 

1.  DANIEL  CLYDE,  a  Scotchman,  came  from  Londonderry, 
County  Antrim,  Ireland,  in  1832,  and  settled  in  Windliam,  N. 
H.,  then  called  Londonderry. 

He  belonged  to  a  colony  of  Scotch  people  who  emigrated 
to  the  north  of  Ireland  in  the  time  of  the  persecution  of  the 
Protestants  by  the  Papists.  He  was  born  about  1683  as  he  died 
in  Windham,  6-4-1753,  aged  70  years.  He  married  Esther  Ran- 
kin, dau.  of  Hugh  Rankin,  an  emigrant  to  Londonderry  from 
County  Antrim,  Ireland.  She  was  a  woman  of  worth  who  pos- 
sessed a  strong  religious  character.  She  was  born  in  1706,  and 
died  2-16-1779.  It  is  not  known  how  many  of  his  children 
changed  the  name  to  Cloyd,  or  whether  that  change  was  re- 
served for  some  of  his  grandchildren  to  make.

Morrison's  History  says  in  1822.  John  Cloyd  writing  in  1881  says 
1835.  Morrison's  Hist,  says  his  son  Samuel  was  born  in  Windham,  N.  H., 
in  1732,  and  that  all  the  older  children  were  born  in  Ireland.

Section  Six 


Basye  Family 


Remarks 


Books  on  Geneaology  frequently  originate  in  the  desire  to 
trace  lineage  or  to  ascertain  certain  facts  about  some  ancestor. 
Both  of  these  facts  actuated  the  writer  in  his  efforts  to  find  out 
what  he  could  about  the  Basye  family. 

Notwithstanding  considerable  effort  has  been  put  forth,  the 
results  have  been  unsatisfactory  in  tracing  the  beginnings  of  the 
family  because  of  incomplete,  inaccessible  or  lost  records.  Much 
time  has  been  consumed  in  the  collection  of  the  information  here- 
with presented  and  it  is  published  for  the  benefit  and  pleasure 
it  may  be  to  others.  Time  has  not  permitted  the  gathering 
of  more  complete  information  and  the  notes  are  printed  without 
any  apology  for  their  present  form. 

I.  Walter  Basye,  Bowling  Green,  i\Io.,  has  gone  extensively 
into  this  matter  and  proposes  in  a  short  time  to  publish  a  com- 
plete History  of  the  Basye  Family.  Acknowledgement  is  here- 
by made  to  him  for  many  of  the  notes  contained  herein  and  other 
valuable  information. 

BASYE. 

Basye  is  French.  It  has  been  claimed  that  the  family  came 
to  France  in  about  the  13th  century  from  that  part  of  northern 
Spain  inhabited  by  the  Basques  near  the  Bay  of  Biscay  and  that 
Edward  de  Basye  was  a  personal  friend  of  Henry  of  Navarre. 
People  by  the  name  still  reside  in  Allsace-Loraine. 

The  Basyes  were  Huguenots,  or  French  Protestants.  After 
the  revocation  of  the  Edict  of  Nantes  in  1685  many  of  the  Hugue- 
nots fled  to  Holland  and  England  and  thence  to  America. 

Alejandro  Basye*  a  Frenchman  with  two  brothers  came  to 
America  about  1686,  and  failing  to  find  sufficient  of  heroic  ad- 
venture to  suit  his  mettle,  returned  to  England  and  joined  an 
expedition  that  sailed  around  Cape  Horn  to  the  Philippine 
Archipelago.

208  The  Basye  Family 

During  the  stay  on  the  island  of  Mindanao  he  fell  in  love 
with  a  daughter  of  a  ^Malayan  prince  and  stole  her  away  from 
her  parents,  going  in  a  native  boat  with  a  few  companions  across 
the  sea  to  the  island  of  Samar.  There  on  the  west  coast  of  that 
island  he  founded  the  city  of  Basey,  or  Basia,  now  a  place  of 
about  12,000.  Other  Europeans  joined  him  and  he  always  held 
a  commanding  position  among  them.  He  left  two  daughters, 
only  one  of  whom  was  married.  His  last  descendant  was  drown- 
ed in  a  tidal  wave  which  swept  over  the  place  some  years  ago. 

John  Basye  settled  in  Hartford,  Conn.,  in  1635,  and  was  a 
man  of  high  standing  judging  from  the  various  positions  of 
trust  held  by  him,  and  the  prominent  mention  of  his  name  in 
Hannam's  Memorial  History  of  Hartford,  (Vol.  2,  Sec.  1,  p. 
277).  He  left  no  male  issue.  He  had  three  daughters;  Mary 
married  Burr,  Lydia,  married  Baker,  and  Elizabeth  married 
Peck.  His  sister,  Adrean  Basye,  married  John  Lord  at  Hartford, 
Sept.  15th,  1648. 

The  name  Bassie  as  in  the  will  was  handed  down  as  a  given 
name  for  more  than  a  century. 

The  Richmond  Land  Office  shows  Eliza  Bassye  came  to  this 
country  in  1650. 

Michael  Basye  sold  land  in  Maryland  in  1653.  He  came  over 
in  the  good  ship  Adventure.  He  died  at  Dorchester,  Maryland,

Descendants  of  Edmond  and  Winnifred  Basye 

1.  EDMOND  BASYE  bought  land  of  Lord  Fairfax  in  Prince 
William  Co.,  Virginia,  in  1754.  A  little  later  he  settled  in  Fau- 
quier Co.,  as  he  and  John  Basye  were  enrolled  in  1761  as  Ser- 
geants in  a  company  of  militia  raised  in  Fauquier  County  by 
Colonel  Wm.  Edmonds  to  fight  Indians.  It  is  evident  that  he 
came  from  Northumberland  County.  He  must  have  been  born 
between  1720  and  1730  and  married  about  1750.  He  died  in 
Culpepper  County  in  1810.     His  wife  was  Winnifred.

5.  Richard,  m.  Nancy  Taylor,  12-4-1781 ;  d.  11-4-1822. 
Edmond,  Elizmond  and  Richard  were  soldiers  in  the  Revo- 
lutionary War.  

Second  Generation 

2.  EDMOND  BASYE,  son  of  Edmond  and  Winnifred,  was  b. 
about  1750,  and  m.  Nancy  Mauzy,  about  1770.  She  was  dau.  of 
Henry  and  Elizabeth  (Taylor)  Mauzy*  of  Fauquier  Co.  He 
entered  the  service  during  the  Revolutionary  War,  as  did  two 
of  his  brothers  and  died  from  smallpox  or  measles,  at  Nanse- 
mond  Court  House  in  1783  after  Cornwallis'  surrender.  The 
traditional  account  of  his  Revolutionary  War  Service  is  very 
vivid  and  clear,  yet  it  has  been  impossible  to  discover  any  docu- 

*  Henry  Mauzy  fled  from  France  to  England  where  he  married  a  daugh- 
ter of  Doctor  Congers.  He  afterward  came  to  America  and  located  in

born  1721— died  1804,  married  Elizabeth  Taylor,  born  1735— died  1829 
(Hayden's  Va.  Gen.  P.  451).  (Ref.  Va.  Hist.  Soc.  Coll.  Vol.  5,  xvii  P.

mentary  evidence  of  his  service.     The  search  for  this  evidence 
has  been  very  exhaustive. 

There  were  eight  companies  of  84  men  each  from  Culpeper 
Co.  where  he  resided,  but  no  list  of  the  men  in  these  companies 
has  been  found.  These  companies  had  for  Captains,  John  Green,

*  The  Taylors  of  Orange  Co.,  Va.,  trace  their  ancestry  back  to  James

thirteen  held  office  under  the  government  at  one  time.)

(See  Hughes  American  Ancestry,  Vol.  9,  P.  116,  for  account  of  Taylor 
family. ) 

M.  M.  Basye,  of  Howard  county.  Mo.,  stated  to  the  writer  at  different 
times  that  his  mother,  Elizabeth  James,  was  related  to  both  President  Tay- 
lor and  President  Madison. 

The  relationship  of  Elizabeth  James  to  the  Taylors  has  never  been 
clearly  traced.

The  Basye  Family  219 

During  General  LaFayette's  last  visit  to  America,  he  was 
entertained  Aug.  23,  1825,  at  the  Tavern  in  Jeffersonton  con- 
ducted by  Richard  T.  Basye.  The  party  was  so  large  that  a 
spacious  and  commodious  arbor  was  erected  at  one  end  of  the 
tavern  under  which  the  guests  were  seated  at  a  long  table.  The 
fork,  a  two  tined  horn  handled  one,  used  by  Gen.  LaFayette 
on  this  occasion  was  used  in  the  family  many  years.  The  com- 
piler of  this  book,  a  grandson  of  R.  T.  Basye,  remembers  seeing 
the  fork  often  in  his  childhood  days.  It  is  stated  that  the  fork 
having  a  crooked  handle  would  slip  down  into  the  General's 
plate  and  that  a  negro  servant  who  stood  behind  him  would 
take  the  fork,  wipe  it  on  a  napkin  and  return  it  to  its  place.

Section  Seven 


First  Generation 

Tapp  Family 

1.  ELIZABETH  TAPP  purchased  450  acres  of  land  in  Spott- 
sylvania  Co.,  Va.,  Aug.  24,  1722.  In  1724,  as  a  widow  while  a 
resident  of  St.  George's  Parish,  she  deeded  the  same  land  and 
also  sold  all  her  personal  property  to  her  two  sons  William 
and  Vincent  and  daughter  Charity  Wood,  wife  of  Bartholomew 
Wood.  In  the  deed  to  this  transaction  the  name  is  spelled 
"Tap." 

Children  : 

*2.     William,  m.  Christian . 

3.  Vincent. 

4.  Charity,  m.  Bartholomew  Wood. 


2.  WM.  TAPP  and  wife  Christian  of  St.  Mark's  Parish  in  1736 
sold  their  portion  of  the  above  land  which  was  situated  in 
St.  George's  Parish.  William  patented  a  tract  of  land  in  Spott- 
sylvania  Co.,  in  1728  which  he  and  his  wife  sold  in  1737.  In 
1736  William  secured  a  patent  to  118  acres  in  that  part  of 
Orange  County  afterwards  set  off  to  form  Culpeper  County. 
In  1736  Vincent  Tapp  sold  the  land  deeded  to  him  by  his  mother 
in  1724. 

In  1755,  William  Tapp  of  Culpeper  Co.,  Va.,  made  deeds 
of  gift  of  land  to  three  of  his  children,  viz:  To  William  143 
acres;  to  Vincent  204  acres;  and  to  Sarah,  wife  John  Jett  148 
acres.  In  1758  he  gave  190  acres  to  Jas.  Green  who  married 
his  daughter  Elizabeth.  In  1763  he  gave  587  acres  to  his  son 
Lewis.  In  1765  he  gave  57  acres  to  John  Cunningham  who 
married  his  daughter  Ann,  and  on  the  same  date  the  118  acres 
he  patented  in  1736  to  John  Graham  who  married  his  daughter 
Alice  and  their  son  Spencer  Graham.  All  the  land  not  otherwise 
described  was  in  Culpeper  County. 

227 


228  The  Tapp  Family 

The  will  of  Wm.  Tapp  was  dated  June  27,  1780  and  proven 
at  Culpeper  Court  House,  Jan.  27,  1791.  In  his  will  he  men- 
tions his  wife  Christian  and  eight  children  named  below. 

Children  : 
*5.     William,  m.  about  1754,  Elizabeth ;  moved  to  N.  C. 

prior  to  1767. 
*6.     Vincent,  m.  about  1754,  Mollie,  dau.  of  John  Jett;  d. 

1791. 

7.  Sarah,  m.  about  1754,  John  Jett,  son  of  John  Jett. 

8.  Elizabeth,  m.  about  1758,  Jas.  Green. 

*9.     Lewis,  m.  about  1763,  Ann ;  moved  to  N.  C. 

10.  Ann,  m.  about  1765,  John  Cunningham. 

11.  Alice,  or  ''Alse",  m.  about  1765,  John  Graham  (left  one 

son  Spencer.) 

12.  Mary,  m.  Yates. 

5.  WILLIAM  TAPP,  JR.,  and  his  wife  Elizabeth  of  Orange 
Co.,  N.  C,  in  1767  conveyed  to  Thos.  Hopper,  Jr.,  of  Culpepper 
Co.,  Va.,  the  143  acres  of  land  in  Culpeper  Co.,  conveyed  to 
him  by  his  father  Wm.  Tapp,  Sr.,  in  1755. 

In  1790,  Wm.  Tapp  lived  in  Caswell  Co.,  N.  C,  and  his  son 
Abner  in  Orange  County.  Abner's  son  Richard  had  eight  chil- 
dren. Richard  had  three  daughters  to  marry  men  by  the  names 
of  Hart,  Bowling  and  Hobbs.  Richard  Tapp  had  one  son  Ruf- 
fian R.  Tapp,  who  married  Miss  Dunnegan,  granddaughter  of 
Lewis  Tapp  and  Jennie  Yancey.  Sidney  C.  Tapp  of  Atlanta, 
Ga.,  and  Luther  C.  Tapp  of  Kingston,  N.  C,  are  sons  of  Ruffian 
R.  Tapp.  Thomas  Tapp  of  Hillsboro,  N.  C,  is  a  grandson  of 
Richard. 

William  Tapp  was  allowed  1425  pounds  of  tobacco  by  the 
Virginia  Legislature  in  1756  for  services  as  a  foot  soldier  in 
the  Culpeper  Co.  Militia  which  was  sent  against  the  French 
and  Indians.  (Hennings  statutes.  Vol.  7,  p.  22.)  As  only  sin- 
gle men  were  enlisted  this  record  undoubtedly  refers  to  Wm. 
son  of  Wm.  and  Christian,  and  as  he  was  married  in  1754  or 
'55,  his  service  in  the  Militia  must  have  been  prior  to  that  time. 

Wm  Tapp,  b.  1750;  d.  1796  was  a  Lieut,  in  the  N.  Y.  Line,  Eevolu- 
tionary  Army.     His  descendants  live  in  New  York  City. 

Joseph  Tapp  was  a  Eevolutionary  soldier  in  the  Delaware  Army. 
(4th  Keport,  Nat'l  Soc.  Dau.  of  the  Eevolution,  1900-1901). 


The  Tapp  Family  229 

William  Tapp  was  a  soldier  in  the  Revolutionary  War  and 
his  name  was  reported  to  the  Governor  of  Virginia  in  1835  by 
Commissioner  John  H.  Smith,  as  being  entitled  to  Land  Bounty. 
(Doc.  44,  p.  45— Public  Printer,  Richmond,  Va.,  1835.) 

As  there  were  three  William  Tapps  living  during  the  Revo- 
lutionary War  it  is  not  known  to  which  the  record  refers.  The 
elder  Wm.  was  evidently  too  old  for  service.  The  second  Wm. 
removed  to  N.  C.  prior  to  1767,  and  while  tradition  in  his  family 
says  that  he  was  in  the  war,  it  is  not  known  wiiether  he  was  in 
the  Virginia  or  North  Carolina  Army. 

Wm.  Tapp  (3)  son  of  Vincent  (6)  was  old  enough  for  ser- 
vice but  there  is  no  tradition  of  his  being  in  the  war. 


Third  Generation 

6.  VINCENT  TAPP,  son  of  William  and  Christian  Tapp,  mar- 
ried Mollie,  dau.  of  John  Jett.  His  will  was  dated  Nov.  22, 
1790,  and  probated  in  Culpepper  Co.,  Jan.  17,  1791.  He  ap- 
pointed his  son  William  Tapp  and  his  friend  James  Jett  as 
executors. 

Vincent  Tapp*  was  a  soldier  in  the  Revolutionary  War.  The 
records  of  the  Adjutant  General's  Office  at  Washington  show 
that  "Vincent  Tapp,  Sr,,   (name  also  found  as  Vinet  Tappan) 

*  There  was  a  third  Vincent  Tapp  in  the  Revolutionary  War,  but  his 
relationship  to  the  other  two  is  not  known.  The  Government  records  show 
the  following:  "Vincent  Tapp,  (name  also  appears  as  Vinct  Tapp  Jr.  and 
Vinet  Tapp  Jr.)  enlisted  at  Wheeling,  Va.,  and  was  commissioned  Sergeant 
Dec.  1  1776,  in  Capt.  Stephen  Asliby's  Company,  12th  Va.  Eeg't,  afterwards 
the  8th,  Commanded  by  Col.  James  Wood.  He  served  three  years  and  was 
discharged  in  Dec.  1779,  at  Morristown,  N.  J.  He  was  wounded  in  the  arm 
at  Brandywine,  and  was  in  the  battle  of  Monmouth. 

The  Richmond  Land  Office  shows  that  he  was  issued  a  warrant  for  200 
acres  of  land,  1783,  for  three  years  service  as  Sergeant  Major  in  the  Revo- 
lutionary War.     (Book  1,  P.  241). 

Hennings  Statues  (Vol.  15,  p.  183)  says:  "A  duplicate  land  warrant 
was  authorized  by  legislative  act  June  2,  1799,  for  200  acres  of  land  to 
Vincent  Tapp  for  services  as  Sergeant  Major  in  the  8th  Va.  Reg't  of  the 
Continental  Army. ' ' 

Vincent  Tapp  was  pensioned  in  1820  at  which  time  he  was  nearly  sixty- 
three  years  of  age  and  a  resident  of  Staunton,  Augusta  Co.,  Va.  He  died  in 
1824  and  his  wife,  whose  maiden  name  was  Gamble,  died  in  1835.  Walter 
H.  and  Henry  I.  Tapp  are  referred  to  in  the  pension  records,  but  no  rela- 
tionship mentioned. 

Vincent  Tapp  resided  in  Staunton,  from  1804  until  his  death.  He  was 
appointed  postmaster  in  1796  and  was  deputy  County  Clerk  in  1820. 


230  The  Tapp  Family 

served  as  a  private  in  Capt.  Stephen  Ashby's  Company,  12tli 
Virginia  Regiment,  commanded  by  Col.  James  Wood.  He  en- 
listed Oct.  10,  1776,  for  two  years ;  was  transferred  about  June, 
1778,  to  Lt.  Col.  John  Neville's  Company,  4th,  8th  and  12th  Vir- 
ginia Regiment,  commanded  by  Col.  James  Wood  and  was  dis- 
charged Oct.  10,  1778." 

The  Richmond  Land  Office  shows  that  a  warrant  No.  921, 
June  20,  1783,  for  100  acres  of  land  was  issued  to  Venet  Tapp 
for  three  years'  service  in  the  Virginia  Line.  (Book  1,  p.  180). 
This  without  doubt  refers  to  Vincent  Tapp,  son  of  Wm.  and 
Christian  Tapp. 

In  his  will  Vincent  Tapp  names  ten  children,  and  does  not 
mention  James.  For  this  reason  there  is  a  doubt  if  the  James 
included  in  the  list  of  children  below  was  a  son  of  Vincent  and 
Mollie  (Jett)  Tapp.  His  name  is  included,  however,  on  the 
statement  of  James  R.  Tapp  of  Brandy,  Culpeper  Co.,  Va. 

Children  : 

*13.     William,  m.  Jemima  Hopper,  dau.  of  Thos.  Hopper. 
14.     John,  m. 

*15.     Vincent,  m.  Elizabeth  Hopper,  sister  to  Jemima. 

*16.     Moses,  m.  Mary  Boch. 

17.  James,  b.  5-10-1764,  m.  Sallie  Chewning. 

18.  NiMROD,  lived  in  Fauquier  Co.,  1800. 

19.  Elias. 

20.  SUCKEY. 

21.  Ann,  m.  Philip  Amiss,  1786. 

22.  Mollie  or  Mary. 

22a.  Sally.  

9.  LEWIS  TAPP,  wife  Ann,  in  1768,  while  residing  in  Cul- 
peper Co.,  Va.,  sold  470  acres  of  land  given  him  by  his  father 
William  Tapp,  Sr.,  in  1763.  This  land  was  probably  a  wedding 
present. 

It  is  supposed  that  Lewis  followed  his  brother  William  to 
North  Carolina,  as  a  Lewis  Tapp  lived  in  Person  Co.,  N.  C.  The 
Person  County  Lewis  married  Jennie  Yancey.  It  is  not  known 
to  the  writer  whether  Lewis  was  married  twice,  or  whether  there 
were  two  Lewis  Tapps. 

Mrs.  Jas.  E.  Yancey,  Roxboro,  N.  C,  granddaughter  of  the 
Person  Co.  Lewis  says  that  Lewis  had  two  half  brothers,  Eli 


The  Tapp  Family  231 

and  George.  George  Tapp  of  Person  Co.,  left  a  large  family. 
His  relationship  to  the  Virginia  family  is  not  known. 

There  is  a  tradition  among  the  descendants  of  George  Tapp 
that  he  came  from  Scotland.  If  this  is  true  and  he  was  a  half 
brother  to  Lewis,  they  were  not  of  the  Culpeper  Co.  family. 
This  tradition  is  probably  erroneous. 

Lewis  Tapp  of  Person  Co.,  N.  C,  married  Jennie  Yancey 

and  died  in  1845.     He  was  a  soldier  in  the  Revolutionary  War. 

He  had  the  following: 

Children  : 

23.  Betsy,  m.  Joseph  Brown. 

24.  William,  went  to  Texas. 

25.  Charles,  went  to  Texas,  m.  and  left  two  children:  Wil- 

liam, Jennie. 

26.  Nancy,  m.  Timothy  Dunnegan,  Orange  Co.,  N.  C. 

27.  Elijah,  died  single  in  Henderson  Co.,  Ky. 

28.  Polly,  m.  John  Snipes,  descendants  lived  near  Hender- 

son, Ky, 

29.  John,  m.  Parthena  Harris,  or  Smith.     He  and  an 

only  son  were  killed  in  Orange   Co.  by  their  own 
negroes  in  1845.     He  left  two  daughters. 
*30.     Henry,  b.  1808 ;  m.  Biddy  L.  Moore. 

31.  James,  died  single,  while  returning  home  from  the  Civil

13.     WILLIAM   TAPP,   d.    1823,   son  of  Vincent   and   Mollie 
(Jett)  Tapp,  m.  Jemima  Hopper,  dau.  of  Thos.  Hopper*,  whose 

*Joshua  Hopper  married  Phebe  Moor.  He  came  from  England  to  Mary- 
land and  later  to  Loudoun  Co.,  Va.,  and  later  to  Washington,  Rappahannock 
County.  He  had  the  following  children:  Miriam  (b,  about  1820)  m.  Joseph 
Amiss,  John,  m.  Elizabeth  Timberlake,  Reuben,  Joshua,  Rebecca,  m.  Robert 
Tutt,  and  Phebe.  John  and  Elizabeth  (Timberlake)  Hopper  resided  in

wife  was  Mary  Ann.  She  d.  1835.  The  estate  of  Wm.  Tapp 
was  divided  among  nine  of  his  children,  Elijah  not  being  men- 
tioned, the  division  being  confirmed  by  Court  Oct.  20,  1823.  His 
estate  consisted  of  1943  acres  of  land  valued  at  $20,482.75,  sit- 
uated in  Culpeper  Co.,  in  the  vicinity  of  Amissville,  near  the 
Rappahannock  County  Line.  His  son  Armistead  Tapp,  and 
son-in-law  Richard  T.  Basye  were  appointed  administrators. 
Wm.  Tapp  died  in  middle  life  from  the  bite  of  a  poisonous  snake 
and  his  widow  Jemima  lived  to  be  quite  old  and  was  an  invalid 
many  years.  She  died  in  1835,  the  last  years  of  her  life  being 
spent  with  her  daughter,  Rebecca,  wife  of  James  Amiss,  who 
remained  in  Culpepper  Co.,  to  whom  she  left  all  her  property. 

It  is  not  known  positively  whether  this  Wm.  Tapp  was  a 
soldier  in  the  Revolutionary  War  or  not.  His  widow  never  re- 
ceived a  pension.  There  is  no  tradition  among  his  descendants 
of  such  service.  His  brother  Vincent  who  was  younger,  was  a 
soldier.  The  Wm.  Tapp  referred  to  by  Commissioner  Smith 
in  his  report  to  the  Governor  in  1835,  as  being  entitled  to  land 
bounty,  may  refer  to  the  uncle  who  had  settled  in  N.  C. 

Children  :

*43.     Elijah,  m.  Mary  Griffin. 

The  above  children  all  married  in  Culpeper  Co.  Rebecca 
remained  in  that  county.  Elijah  remained  in  Culpeper  Coun- 
ty, and  his  son  named  Elijah  resided  near  Amissville  in  1907. 
Susan  and  Mathew  Jett  were  the  parents  of  Peter  Jett  of  Frank- 
fort, Ky.,  whom  the  writer  (A.  D.  Cloyd)  while  a  medical  stu- 
dent, visited  in  1883. 

15.  VINCENT  TAPP,  supposed  son  of  Vincent,  6,  married 
Elizabeth  Hopper  in  Culpeper  Co.,  Va.   The  frequency  with  which 


The  Tapp  Family  233 

the  name  Vincent  appears  in  the  different  families  makes  it  diffi- 
cult to  trace  the  record  of  the  different  ones.  From  the  deed  rec- 
ords of  Culpeper  Co.,  one  would  infer  that  William  and  Vincent 
sons  of  Vincent,  Sr.,  married  Jemima  and  Elizabeth  Hopper, 
daughters  of  Thos.  Hopper.  In  1803  Thos.  Hopper  deeded  land 
to  his  two  sons-in-law  Vincent  and  William  Tapp,  and  in  1815 
Vincent  Tapp  and  wife  Elizabeth  deeded  their  share  of  the 
same  land  to  William  Tapp. 

Vincent  Tapp,  son  of  Vincent  and  Mollie  (Jett)  Tapp, 
was  born  about  1773,  and  married  Fanny  Wright  in  S.  C. 
about  1798,  and  died  in  Ripley,  Miss.,  in  1859.  It  is  also  claim- 
ed that  his  mother  ]\Iary  Tapp  accompanied  him  to  S.  C,  and 
that  he  was  raised  by  relatives.  A  copy  of  the  will  of  Vincent 
Tapp  of  Culpeper  Co.,  who  died  in  1790,  is  preserved  in  the 
family  and  is  evidence  that  the  first  wife  Elizabeth  Hopper  died 
and  that  he  then  married  Fanny  Wright,  or  that  Vincent  Tapp 
who  married  Elizabeth  Hopper  was  not  the  brother  of  William 
Tapp  who  married  Jemima  Hopper.  Vincent  Tapp  in  1832 
while  a  resident  of  Rappahannock  Co.,  Va.,  was  granted  a  pen- 
sion as  a  private  in  the  Va.  Contentinal  Army.  He  was  living 
at  the  age  of  76  in  1840.  Vincent  Tapp  and  Fanny  Wright  had 
the  following

The  Tapp  Family  239 


Other  Tapps 


GEORGE  TAPP  resided  in  Person  Co.,  N.  C,  and  was  twice 
married.  His  second  wife  was  a  Miss  Fowler.  His  relationship 
to  others  of  the  name  is  not  known.  Tradition  has  it  that  he 
and  one  brother  and  one  sister  came  from  Scotland  and  finally 
settled  in  Person  Co.  Others  claim  he  was  half  brother  to 
Lewis  Tapp  of  Person  County.  It  is  most  probable  that  both 
were  from  the  Virginia  family.  George  Tapp,  80  years  of  age, 
residing  in  Warren  Co.,  N.  C,  was  pensioned  in  1818  as  a  pri- 
vate in  the  North  Carolina  Line.     (War  Reports  1835.)

William  and  Vincent  and  Mrs.  Ashby  by  the  first  wife  and 
all  six  of  the  children  by  the  last  wife  moved  to  Hopkins  and 
Webtser  Counties,  Ky.,  in  Dec.  1833.  They  were  all  married 
and  had  families  at  that  time.  Many  of  their  descendants  still 
live  in  those  counties  but  many  have  removed  to  other  states. 

The  larger  part  of  the  Tapp  descendants  from  the  above 
families  in  Western  Kentucky,  are  Baptists,  quite  a  number  are 
members  of  the  Christian  Church  and  a  few  are  Methodists, 
Presbyterians,  etc.,  and  as  far  as  known  only  one  is  a  Catholic. 
They  are  nearly  all  Democrats,  politically.  A  number  of  them 
were  in  the  Confederate  Army  but  none  in  the  Union  Army.

Brief  Sketches  of  the 

Ingels,  Jones,  Marshall  and 
Smith  Families 


Ingels 


James  Ingels,  a  linen  weaver,  moved  from  Pennsylvania  to 
Kentucky  and  married  Catherine  Boone,  supposed  to  have  been 
a  relative  of  Daniel  Boone.  His  son  James  was  born  1779,  died 
1857,  married  Elizabeth  Ducker  who  died  in  1821,  and  resided 
near  Paris,  Ky.  The  brick  house  built  by  him  still  stands  on 
the  old  homestead  about  midway  between  Paris  and  Lexington, 
Ky. 

Emily  Ingels,  dau.  of  James  and  Elizabeth  (Ducker)  Ingels, 
was  born  near  Paris,  Ky.,  in  1819,  and  died  in  Louisiana,  Mo., 
1905.  She  married  Noah  Griffith,  (b.  1802;  d.  1864.)  After 
Griffith's  death  she  married  his  brother  John  who  died  and  she 
married  Dr.  Geo.  L.  Bralley  who  died  April,  1903. 


James 

The  will  of  John  James  was  proven  in  Spottsylvania  Co., 
Va.,  4-5-1726.     He  had  witnessed  a  deed  10-27-1725. 

William  James  witnessed  a  deed  in  Spottsylvania  Co.,  6-1- 
1731. 

The  estate  of  James  James  was  administered  4-2-1754  in 
Spottsylvania  Co.,  Va. 

Richard  James  was  paid  400  pounds  of  tobacco  for  making 
the  sash  windows  for  a  church  in  Bristol  Parish  in  1724.  His 
wife's  name  seemed  to  be  Mary  Elizabeth,  as  the  Bristol  Regis- 
ter shows  that  Elizabeth,  daughter  of  Richard  and  Elizabeth 
James,  was  born  2-8-1724  and  that  Mary,  dau.  of  Richard  and 
Mary  James  was  born  1-2-1728. 

George  James,  wife  Mary,  died  Spottsylvania  Co.,  Va.,  1753. 
Their  children,  Thomas,  the  oldest  son,  Mary,  Dianah,  Joseph, 

Daniel,  born  12-6-1748,  and  Henry. Joseph,  and  Daniel  and 

Henry  were  minors  when  their  father  died  and  John  James  was 
their  guardian.

246  Other  Families 

Thomas'  wife  is  called  Mary  in  one  place  and  Jenny  in  an- 
other. Her  name  was  probably  Bruce  as  Margaret  Bruce  in 
her  will  dated  7-22-1765,  and  proven  8-6-1765,  mentions  Thomas 
James  as  her  brother-in-law  and  Mary  James  as  her  sister. 

Thomas  James  of  Fauquier  Co.,  Va.,  died  1776.  His  will 
proven  2-26-1776,  mentions  daughter  Molly  who  married  Mich- 
ael Robinson,  Jr.,  and  daughter  Agatha  who  married  Richard 
Price.  Another  Thomas  James  married  Betty,  dau.  of  Michael 
Robinson,  Sr.,  as  shown  by  deed  6-6-1791,  in  Fauquier,  Va. 


JOSEPH  JAMES,  a  resident  of  Culpeper  Co.,  Va.,  was 
paid  for  Indians  in  1758.  Joseph  James,  age  68,  while  residing 
in  Scott  Co.,  Ky.,  in  1818,  was  granted  a  pension  for  services 
in  the  Va.  Line. 

Thomas  James,  Evan  James  and  Elijah  James  were  Revo- 
lutionary soldiers  in  the  Pa.  Army  according  to  Saffel. 

There  were  five  James  brothers  in  the  Revolutionary  War 
referred  to  by  W.  G.  Simmons  in  his  life  of  General  Marion, 
who  says  of  them :  "  No  men  under  Marion  were  braver  and  truer 
than  these."  Their  names  were  John,  William,  Gavin,  Robert, 
and  James.  They  were  cousins  of  Major  John  James  who  was 
also  in  Marion's  army. 

Thomas  James,  born  near  the  Maryland  and  Virginia  line 
7-17-1770,  father  of  William  James  who  married  Martha  Cloyd 
at  Nashville,  Tenn.,  8-19-1816,  is  supposed  to  have  been  the  son 
of  one  of  those  five  brothers.  David  Cloyd  James,  Madison- 
ville,  Ky.,  son  of  William,  is  authority  for  this  statement. 

William  James  accompanied  Lord  Baltimore  to  America 
and  settled  in  Virginia.  His  son,  William,  married  Clarissa 
Smith  in  Virginia  and  both  of  these  died  in  Cannon  County, 
Tenn.  William,  Jr.,  had  two  sons,  John  M.,  the  father  of  Mrs. 
Hulda  Meacham  of  San  Bernardino,  Cal.,  and  Robert  Stanley, 
the  father  of  James  D.  James  of  Joplin,  Mo. 

Robert  James,  the  father  of  the  noted  James  Boys,  of  Mis- 
souri, was  a  grandson  of  the  emigrant  William  James  and  his 
father  was  a  brother  to  William,  Jr.  (Authority  John  D.  James, 
Joplin,  Mo.)

Jones 

BENJAMIN  JONES*  was  born  in  King  William  Co.,  Va., 
Mar.  28,  1754.  He  was  a  soldier  in  the  Revolutionary  War.  In 
the  spring  of  1776  he  enlisted  as  a  private  in  Capt.  Edward 
Booker's  Company  in  King  William  County,  Va.,  and  served 
three  months.  In  Nov.,  1778,  he  again  enlisted  in  Capt.  James 
Shepherd's  North  Carolina  Company,  Col.  Wm.  Brevard,  com- 
manding. Dee.  29,  1780,  he  was  appointed  Ensign  and  served 
until  Jan.,  1782.  He  was  at  the  Battles  of  Brier  Creek,  Kings 
Mountain  and  Eutaw  Springs.  He  was  pensioned  for  this  ser- 
vice in  1832  while  a  resident  of  Stokes  Co.,  N.  C,  where  he  died 
in  1833.  

Dr.  Aquilla  Jones,  son  of  Benjamin  Jones  of  Stokes  Co., 
N.  C,  married  Mrs.  Lettie  (Hooperf)  Cooke  at  Nashville,  Tenn- 
essee, April  18,  1798.     He  removed  to  Howard  Co.,  Missouri, 

*A  Benjamin  Jones  died  in  Stokes  Co.,  N.  C.  in  1828,  aged  99  years.  He 
had  a  son  named  Aquilla,  and  his  youngest  son  Benjamin,  who  was  born  in 
1776,  left  N  C.  prior  to  1831  and  died  in  Indiana,  4-9-1865.  His  wife,  Mary 
Jones,  died  8-12-1842,  aged  63.  His  son  Aquilla,  b.  in  Stokes  Co.,  N.  C.  in 
1811,  was  elected  State  Treasurer  for  Indiana  in  1856,  was  Postmaster  at 
Indianapolis  under  Cleveland  and  died  1907.  His  son  Aquilla  Q.  is  a  promi- 
nent attorney  of  Indianapolis  and  his  daughter,  Mrs,  Emma  Holloway, 
resides  at  Santa  Paula,  California.  There  appears  to  have  been  two  Benja- 
min Jones  of  Stokes  Co.,  N.  C,  each  having  a  son  named  Aquilla.  The 
Aquilla  who  married  Lettie  Cooke  in  1798  and  removed  to  Glasgow,  Howard 
Co.,  Mo.,  could  not  have  been  an  older  brother  to  Benjamin  Jones  who  died 
in  Indiana  in  1865.  Aquilla  died  in  1883  and  must  have  been  quite  young 
when  he  married  in  1798,  while  Benjamin  was  born  in  1776. 

There  appears  to  be  a  relation  existing  between  the  Indiana  and  Mis- 
souri families.  Aquilla  Q.  Jones,  of  Indiana,  visited  Dr.  Aquilla  Jones,  of 
Glasgow,  Mo.  in  1838,  and  it  has  been  generally  understood  that  the  two 
were  related. 

The  North  Carolina  Census  Keport  for  1790,  Vol.  26,  contains  the  names 
of  the  following  Jones'  who  were  heads  of  families  in  Stokes  Co. 

Aquilla,  William,  Gabriel,  Joshua,  Benjamin,  Quiler,  Richard,  Phillip 
and  Robert. 

It  also  gives  an  Aquilla  Jones  in  Chatham  Co.,  and  Randolph  Co.,  and 
i>enjamin  Jones  in  Rowan  County.

in  1818,  settling  on  a  farm  about  five  miles  south  of  Glasgow. 
He  died  about  1883,  and  with  his  wife  is  buried  on  the  old 
homestead.  A  substantial  stone  wall  forms  an  enclosure  erected 
by  W.  W.  Cloyd  of  Fayette,  Missouri,  acting  under  instructions 
from  John  Lee  Jones,  the  youngest  child. 

While  primarily  a  doctor  of  medicine,  his  preaching  pro- 
clivities held  him  in  the  class  of  local  preachers  in  the  M.  E. 
church  which  meant  more  in  pioneer  days  than  later  and  his 
rugged  eloquence  moved  many  an  audience.  When  called  as 
a  physician  he  would  often  perform  the  religious  service  of 
baptism  on  the  same  visit.  He  kept  a  record  of  his  cases  show- 
ing name  of  patient,  supposed  malady,  remedy  applied  and  re- 
sults of  treatment.  This  record  he  bound  in  book  form  in  a 
cover  of  sheepskin  from  his  own  flock.  This  homespun  volume 
tells  more  plainly  of  a  life  of  honesty  and  carefulness  than  the 
words  of  any  admirer.  The  hymn  book  he  used  is  in  the  pos- 
session of  Mrs.  Maggie  (Richardson)  Stamper  of  Moberly,  Mis- 
souri, daughter  of  Mrs.  Elizabeth  (Cloyd)  Richardson  of  Salis- 
bury, Missouri.

Marshall 


GILBERT  MARSHALL*,  was  born  in  the  Chevoit  Hills 
on  the  border  of  England  and  Scotland  in  1715.  He  removed 
to  northern  Ireland  in  early  life,  where  he  married  Miss  Martha 
Rowan.**  It  is  not  known  when  he  came  to  America,  but  some 
of  his  older  children  were  born  in  Ireland  and  the  younger  ones 
in  America.  He  first  settled  in  Pennsylvania  and  later  in  Vir- 
ginia. While  his  family  was  still  quite  young,  and  possibly 
before  some  af  the  younger  children  were  born,  he  settled  near 
Nashville,  Tennessee,  and  was  among  the  first  settlers  of  that 
part  of  the  state. 

His  relation  to  the  other  Marshalls  in  America  is  not  known, 
His  youngest  daughter,  Sarah,  who  married  David  Cloyd,  said 
to  her  grandson,  David  Cloyd  James,  in  1835,  shortly  before 
her  death,  and  on  the  occasion  of  the  death  of  Chief  Justice 
John  Marshall,  that  she  and  the  Chief  Justice  were  cousins.  She 
also  claimed  to  be  a  cousin  to  Humphrey  Marshall.

Smith,  was  born  in  Hanover  County,  Va.,  4-26-1786.  He  mar- 
ried in  Virginia,  residing  for  a  time  in  Bedford  County  and  re- 
moving to  Pike  County,  Mo.,  at  an  early  day.  He  died  11-27- 
1876.  His  wife  Mecha  Ham  was  born  in  Amherst  County,  Va., 
4-20-1791,  and  died  8-10-1846.  Both  were  buried  in  the  family 
burial  grounds  near  Dover  Church,  on  the  farm  until  recently 
owned  by  his  son  A.  Jackson  Smith. 

John  Smith  and  wife  Mecha  (Ham)  Smith,  had  the  follow- 
ing children,  all  of  whom  were  born  in  Virginia,  viz:  Richard 
S.,  m.  Elizabeth  Shaw ;  Champness  m.  Mary  Jane  Tinsley ;  Mar- 


*  James  A.  Sanderson,  Bowling  Green,  Mo.,  writing  in  1905  said:  "The 
Ham  family  was  raised  in  Alabama.  Mr.  Ham,  wife  and  their  children  came 
to  Va.  on  account  of  Mrs.  Ham's  health.  He  left  his  plantation  and  negroes 
in  the  care  of  an  overseer  and  settled  in  the  mountains  uear  Lynchburg,  Va. 
His  two  daughters  married  John  and  Austin  JSmith.  Meckey  or  Mecha 
married  John,  and  Catherine  married  Austin.  The  mother  died.  Mr.  Ham 
and  his  son  Yancey  went  back  to  Alabama.  Yancey  died  before  he  married. 
Mr.  Ham  married  again  and  his  wife  had  four  children.  He  died  some- 
time about  1840,  leaving  a  will  giving  all  his  property  to  the  last  four 
children.  John  Smith  went  to  see  about  their  interests  and  found  a  will  in 
favor  of  the  four  children  by  his  last  wife.  He  employed  counsel  and 
brought  suit  for  an  equal  division,  or  to  break  the  will,  and  it  was  broken 
and  an  equal  division  of  the  land  w^as  made  between  the  six  children  and 
the  negores  were  divided.  The  money  was  not  in  sight.  He  was  said  to  have 
been  a  very  wealthy  man.  Mrs.  Ham's  maiden  name  was  Yancey,  related  to 
the  Yanceys  of  the  South.  Her  father  was  doubtless  in  the  Eevolutionary 
War.  I  have  no  dates  of  their  births  or  deaths,  except  John  Smith's  wife, 
Mecha,  and  that  was  taken  from  grave  stones. ' ' 

Mrs.  Mattie  Smith,  daughter  of  Andrew  Jackson  Smith,  relates  that 
John  and  Austin  Smith  met  the  Ham  sisters  while  the  latter  were  spending 
the  summer  at  some  Springs  in  Virginia.
