PREFACE.

During the course of researches into the family history of
many individuals, extending over a period of several years,
there was discovered by the compiler much original material
relating to two most interesting periods of Virginia's history
— ^the French and Indian War and the War of the Revolu-
tion. Little of this material has ever appeared in print, and
the compiler feels it a duty to preserve to history the names
of those who participated in the two wars mentioned.

The part played by the Colony and State of Virginia in
both of these conflicts need not be detailed here. It is suffi-
cient to say that many of her gallant sons were at Braddock's
defeat and helped to save the remnant of the British regulars
on their retreat ; while in the Revolution they were at the
front ijntil the triumph of the American arms at Yorktown,
in the siege of which there participated fiiUy six thousand
i Virginia troops, both of the continental line and the militia,
being over one-third of the troops engaged.

Two of the most usefiil documents in this book, for the
student of family history, are the Poll Lists for the election of
members to the House of Burgesses from Prince William
county, ill the year 1741, and from Fairfax county in 1744.
The first
territoiy

of these counties, at the date named, comprised the
braced in the present Prince William county, to-
gether with the counties of Fairfax, Loudoun, and Fauquier.
It was jille first halting place in the march of emigration from
lower Virginia westward to the Shenandoah Valley, and thus
formed ime gateway to what was then the western frontier.
From ly44 to 1757 Fairfax county comprised the present
comity Cftf that name and also the county of Loudoun.

VI GLEANINGS OP VIBGINIA HIBTOBY.

The Rosters of Troops in the French and Indian Wars are
taken from Hening's Statvies of Virgmia, a work generally
well known to the legal profession, but one with which the
average person in search of family history is unacquainted.
For this reason it is desirable that the lists referred to should
be made readily accessible.

The original Muster and Pay Rolls of ofScers and men of
the Revolution are in possession of the compiler and furnish
the names of many persons not to be found elsewhere. Where
matter previously printed is inserted in this work, special
reference to the source will be found.

More or less complete genealogies of various Virginia fam-
ilies are also included, and it is hoped that they may be found
useful to their thousands of descendants who are interested in
their family histories.

Virginia has done and is still doing much to preserve the
history of her people, but during his researches, the compiler
has been impressed with the fact that not enough attention
has been given to the rank and file of her pioneers, many of
whose descendants to-day occupy the front ranks of American
professional and business life. If this work shall be regarded
as in any degree valuable in preserving to posterity the almost
forgotten names of many of those whose loyalty and self-
sacrifice made our Republic possible, the compiler shall feel
repaid for his labor.

EAELY TIMES IN VIEGINIA.

Settlement. The first settlement in Virginia was made at
Jamestown, May 14th (May 24th, N. S.), 16P7, by a party of
105* colonists sent out by the London Virginia Company.
This company owned the territory until 1624-5, when it was
dissolved, and the colony reverted to the crown.

Original Qraitt, In the Second Charter granted by King
James, May 23, 1609, the limits and extent of the colony are
pointed out. Section 6 provides : *' We do also . . give, grant
and confirm, unto the said treasurer and company . . all
those lands, countries and territories ... in that part of
America called Virginia . . from Point Comfort, all along the
Sea co€ist to the Northward two hundred miles, and from said
Cape Comfort all along the Sea coast to the Southward two
hundred miles, and all that space and circuit of land . . from
Sea to sea, west and northwest ; and also all the islands lying
within one hundred miles along the coast of both seas."

Even after limits were more clearly defined, Virginia in-
cluded all the territory now embraced within Virginia proper.
West Virginia, a portion of Pennsylvania, all of Kentucky,
Ohio, Indiana, Michigan, Illinois, Wisconsin, and a portion of
Minnesota.

From this vast realm were detached in 1784 the Northwest

* Authorities differ aa to this number. Howe, in Historical CoUections of Va.,
says: ** In the whole company there w«ire but four carpenters, twelve laborers and
fiftj-four gentlemen/' or 70 in alL Tyler, in **The Cradle of the Republic,"
oopies names from Captain John Smith's History, viz: 6 members of council,
48 gentlemen, 4 carpenters, and 24 laborers; total, 82, with the remark, '*with
dirers others to the number of one hundred." He says further: ''The total
number left at the Island on June 22, 1607, was 104." Howe says : ^'Newport
sailed on the 15th of June [1607], leaving one hundred men in Virginia." We
leave these disagreements to the doctors to harmonize.

territory ; in 1792, Kentucky, and in 1863 what is now West/
Virginia, leaving but 42,450 square miles as the present area
of the State.

Origmal Subdivisiona into Shires or Counties, In 1634 the
country was divided into eight shires, which were to be gov-
erned as the shires in England. Names : James City, Hen-
rico, Charles City, Elizabeth City, Warwick River, Warros-
quyoake, Charles River, and Accawmack.

Of this number the names James City, Henrico, Charles
City, Elizabeth City, Warwick, and Accomack have been re-
tained. In 1642-3, by Act 13 of the Assembly, the name
Accawmack was changed to Northampton. In 1672 the
limits were reduced by the formation of Accomack county
of the present time. By the same act the name of Charles
River was changed to York and Warwick River to county
of Warwick. Warrosquyoake was changed to Isle of Wight
in 1637.

Oriffinal Officers, In 1634 it was decreed that Lieutenants
were to be appointed the same as in England, who were to
take care in special manner of the war against the Indians.
Sheriffs were elected with same powers as in England ; and
where need was, sergeants and bailiflFs were chosen.

First Assembly. The first assembly held in Virginia con-
vened on July 30, 1619, under orders from Sir George Yeard-
ley, then governor, at Jamestown, called " James City." No
definite acts were made.

Early Records. Perhaps the most authentic record of these
early acts of legislation is the compilation known as " Hen-
ing's Statutes at Large," published from original sources in
1823. This compilation is a mine of legal and historic infor-
mation respecting those early days. The orthography, com-
position and subject-matter reveal fully the body and spirit
of the times. We give a few specimens :

Primitive Acts and Eegulations. The following extracts are
taken from laws passed at diflFerent times during colonial
days:

EARLY TIMES IN VIRGINIA. 3

1. There shall be in every plantation, where the people use
to meete for the worship of God, a house or roome sequestered
for that purpose, and not to be for any temporal use whatso-
ever, and a place empaled in, sequested only to the buryal
of the dead.

2. Whosoever shall absent himself from divine service any
Sunday without an allowable excuse shall forfeite a pound
of tobacco, and he that absenteth himself a month shall forfeit
50 lbs. of tobacco. ...

3. That there be an uniformity in our Church as neere as
may be to the canons in England, both in substance and
circumstance, and that all persons yield redie obedience unto
them under paine of Censure.

23. Every dwelling house shall be pallizaded in for defence
against the Indians. [This act and the subsequent ones grew
out of the condition of the country from the terrible massacre
of March 22, 1622,* in which 347 men, women and children
were slaughtered. The Indians came unarmed, " with fruits,
fish, turkeys and venison to sell." But for the friendly act
of a converted Indian, the slaughter would have been more
extensive. . . . ]

24. That no man go or send abroad without a suflScient
party well armed.

25. That men go not to work in the ground without their
arms (and a centinell upon them).

26. That the inhabitants go not aboard ships or upon any
other occasions in such numbers as thereby to weaken and
endanger the plantation.

27. That the commander of every plantation take care that
there be suflBcient of powder and ammunition within the
plantation under his command, and their pieces fixt and their
arms compleate.

28. That there be dew watch kept by night.

29. That no commander of any plantation do either himself

or suflfer others to speiid powder unnecessarily in drinking or
entertainments, Ac. (Passed March 1623-4.)

A very wise regulation looking to the good of posterity was
that contained in —

Act. 10. In every parrish Church within this colony shall
be kept by the mynister a booke wherein shall be written the
day and yeare of every christeninge, weddings and buriall.
[Had this prudent and far-seeing enactment been observed by
the churches of Virginia and the books preserved, the records
of the State would to-day be the envy of the nation. They
would, in fact, be a mine of inexpressible value.]

Act 11. Mynisters shall not give themselves to excesse in
drinkinge, or riott, spendinge theire tyme idellye by day or
night, playinge at dice, cards, or any other unlawfuU game,
but at all tymes convenient they shall heare or reade somewhat
of the holy scriptures, or shall occupie themselves with some
other honest study or exercise, alwayes doinge the things
which shall apperteyne to honesty, and endeavour to profitt
the church of God, alwayes havinge in mynd that they ought
to excell all others in puritie of life, and should be examples
to the people to live well and christianlie.

[" Speak thou the things which become sound doctrine.'* —
Paul to Titus. This act of the legislature of Virginia, while
not so orthodox, perhaps, as the advice of the Apostle, contains
much food for reflection. Portions of it might, with propriety,
be commended to the churches of the present day. For this
reason it is well, perhaps, to stir up their pure minds by way
of remembrance.]

Act. 51. All men that are fittinge to beare armes shall \
bring their pieces to the church ; uppon payne of every offence, I
yf the mayster allow not thereof, to pay 2 lb. of tobacco, to be
disposed by the church-wardens, who shall levy it by dis-
tresse, and the servants to be punished. . . .

Act 67. It 18 ordered, That the 22d. day of March be
yearelie kept Holyday in commemoration of our deliverance

from the Indians at the bloodie massaker which happened
uppon the 22d. of March, 1621. [Passed February, 1631-2.]

Under laws passed in 1666, a fine of one hundred pounds
of tobacco was imposed upon any person who, without lawftil
reason, neglected or refused to appear " upon the days of exer-
cise and other times when required to attend upon the public
service." These "days of exercise" were occasions known
later as " muster days."

In 1682, the forts having been dismantled in the counties
of Henrico, New Kent, Rappahannock and Stafford, Com-
panies of militia of 20 men each were organized under the
command of a captain and a corporal, whose duties were '*to
command, lead, traine, conduct and exercise the said twenty
soldiers." The captain furnished his own supplies and was
allowed an annual salary of 8,000 pounds of tobacco, and the
corporal 3,000. Each soldier under similar conditions was
allowed 2,000 pounds.

The fine for neglect of an oflScer to attend muster was 500
pounds of tobacco; to go out on "range or scout," 1,000
pounds. The soldier was fined 100 pounds for not attending
muster, and 2,000 pounds for not going out on a scouting ex-
pedition.

IMMIGRANT LIST, 1707.

The following persons shipped at Bristol, England, with
James Gaugh, captain and owner of the ship Joseph and
Thomas, and received their wages as boat hands (Liber Z,
folio 422, Aug. 2, 1707, Stafford County) :

Abraham Loyd, John Wall,

James Ginning, Arthor Marly,

Thomas Jones, Thomas Calmers,

Robert Goalfold, William Johnson,

William Shough, Ellis Giles,

David Vaughn, William Roach,

William Harmons, William Adams,

William Price, Thomas Parris,

Lewis Johns, George Paines.

From the records it is not certain that any of these persons
remained in Virginia, but from the similarity of names found
in the western portion of Stafford county, and after 1730 in
Prince William, it is believed a good portion of them settled
in Virginia, whose descendants are now scattered throughout
the South and West.

FRENCH AND INDIAN WAR— LORD DUNMORE'S

WAR.

Interesting Study in American History. One of the subjects
of thrilling interest in American history is the struggle be-
tween the French and the English for possession of the great
valley connecting the Great Lakes and the mouth of thej
Mississippi river. j

English CUmas. The English discoveries and occupations I
embraced belts of territory along the Atlantic coast, and were

FRENCH AND INDIAN WARS. 9

supposed to include all territory between certain parallels
from the Atlantic to the Pacific.

FreTich Settlements and dairas. The French had not been
successful in securing footholds along the Atlantic, within the
bounds of the present United States, but had secured posses-
sions farther north around the mouth of the St. Lawrence.
French Catholics, too, had discovered the mouth of the Mis-
sissippi river, and ascended that stream, laying claim, under
the law of nations, to all the territory drained by it and its
tributaries.

This claim, if acknowledged, would cut the vast continent
into two unequal divisions, giving to the English the string
of a bow along the Atlantic, while the French took the bow
from one end, at the mouth of the Mississippi, up that stream
to the mouth of the Ohio, and thence up that stream, with its
tributaries, the Alleghany and French creeks, to Lake Erie,
and finally across the lakes to the mouth of the St. Lawrence,
the other end of the bow.

If this theory of national rights could be maintained, it
would plainly secure, as subsequent events have developed,
not only the great bow already described, but the rich game
in front, together with all the wealth to be developed in the
path along which civilization has since spread.

Lme of Forts between the Lakes and the Mississippi, The
manifest pk>licy of the French, then, was to secure possession
of these rich territorial tracts by a line of forts and other
means of protection from the Great Lakes to the Mississippi.
Accordingly, these preliminary steps were taken, and then
began the game of chess between two mighty European rival
nations for the rich prize at stake. Of Napoleon, at a later
date, Byron wrote —

''Whose game was empires and whose stakes were thrones;
Whose table earth; whose dice were human bones."

We repeat, this problem is one of the most interesting
studies to the intelligent reader, and presents the key-note to
the proper and easy understanding of those gigantic struggles

10 GLEANINGS OF VIRGINIA HISIORY.

which, for a time, involved the stability and supremacy
of European governments, as well as the growth and prosper-
ity of American settlements.

Origin of the War. As a result of three years' controversy
between commissioners appointed under the Treaty of Aix-la-
Chapelle (1748) to settle the question of boundaries in America
between France and England, what is known in America as
the "French and Indian War" — in Europe as the "Seven
Years' War " — was waged.

Conflicting Territorial Claims. From 1750 to 1753 these
commissioners at Paris wrangled over the matter. By the
Treaty of Utrecht (April 11, 1713) Acadia was an English
possession. But what did Acadia embrace? According to
the English commissioners, it included not only the peninsula
of Nova Scotia, but the entire tract between the St. Lawrence
river on the north, the gulf of the same name on the east, the
Atlantic on the south, and New England on the west.

The French conceded only about one-twentieth of this terri-
tory, viz., not even all the Acadian peninsula, but only a part
of its southern coast and an adjacent belt of barren wilderness.
Formerly the French claim was quite as extensive as that
now made by the English ; but conditions having changed,
their contention was changed.

Bienville^s Expedition in 174,9. Nor was Acadia the only
ground of contention. In the prosecution of the deep-laid
scheme of the French, Celeron de Bienville had been sent in
1749 by Galissoniere, the governor of Canada, into the Ohio
valley with " a suitable escort of whites and savages to take
formal possession of the valley in the name of the King
of France, to propitiate the Indians, and in all ways short
of actual warfare to thwart the English plans." Bienville
made a detailed report at Montreal, whither he had returned,
but it was not favorable to his lordship. The English were
swarming in the valley and had succeeded in securing the
Indians as allies.

FRENCH AND INDIAN WARS. 11

Galissoniere was succeeded by the Marquis Duquesne. The
latter, discovering the trend of events and being a man
of action, decided to take immediate steps. Early in 1753 he
sent a strong force by Lake Ontario and Niagara to seize and
hold the northeastern branches of the Ohio river. Passing
over the portage between Presque Isle and French creek, it
constructed Forts Le Boeuf and Venango.

Washington's Mission wnder Gov. Dinwiddie in 175S, Late
in the same year (11th of December) a messenger from Gov-
ernor Dinwiddie * arrived. This messenger was Major George
Washington, Adjutant-General of the Virginia militia, then
in the 22d year of his age. His guide was Christopher Gist,
who was well acquainted with the route and thoroughly com-
petent to perform his task. The burden of this embassy was
to inform the French commander at Le Boeuf that he was
building his fort on English territory and to suggest that he
would do well to depart. After three days, which Washington
employed usefully in making observations, he received a reply.
This he returned to Gov. Dinwiddie, reaching Williamsburg
on the 16th of January, 1754, after a journey of nearly 600
miles over "lofty and rugged mountains and through the
heart of a wilderness."

Washington to Build a Fori at Forks of the Ohio, Gov. Din-
widdie drafted 200 men from the Virginia militia and placed
them under the direction of Washington, with instructions to
build a fort at the forks of the Ohio. The Virginia Assembly,

* Robert Dinwiddie was bora in Scotland, 1690, and died in Clifton, England,
Aug. 1, 1770. While clerking in the customs department, he detected bis prin-
ciptl in the perpetration of gross frands on the government. For bis services in

fie reached Virginia in 1752, and in the following December he submitted to
the Board of Trade an elaborate report favoring the annexation of the Ohio
Valley; hence his sending of Washington to Fort Le Boeuf. Subsequent to
Washington's defeat at Fort Necessity, an alienation between the governor and
his field marshal existed.

He was recalled to England in 1758, leaving in dispute an unsettled account
of £20,000.

12 GLEANINOS OP VIRGINIA HISTORY.

forgetting temporarily its controversy with the governor, voted
£10,000 to be expended for the purpose, but only under the
direction of a committee of its own members.

Want of Co-operation with Dimuiddie. Dinwiddle found
diflBculty in securing co-operation from the other colonies in
this enterprise. The attitude of the Quaker element in Penn-
sylvania prevented that colony from giving the aid it might
have famished. Some backwoodsmen finally pushed across
the mountains and began the construction of the projected
work. These, however, were driven away by a superior
French force, and the latter immediately began the construc-
tion of Fort Duquesne on the site now occupied by Pittsburg
at the confluence of the Allegheny and the Monongahela
rivers.

Military Expedition to Forks of Ohio in 17S4 — Oreat Meadows
and DeaJth of French Commander. Gov. Dinwiddle was en-
gaged, meanwhile, in organizing a regiment of militia, under
Colonel Joshua Fry, with Washington second in command,
to support the backwoodsmen in their work. Washington
had advanced with a portion of the command to Will's Creek,
now Cumberland, Md.; and later, with 150 men, he reached
Great Meadows, where he learned that the French had been
reinforced and were sending out a party against him. Through
the assistance of an Indian, Half-King, who had the previous
year been with him on the expedition to Fort Le Boeuf,
Washington learned that the French, under Jumonville,
were in lurking for him. With this assistance the French
were defeated and their leader killed.

Fort Necessity BuiU — Washi/ngton^s Surrender. While wait-
ing for reinforcements under Colonel Fry, Washington threw
up imperfect intrenchments at Great Meadows and called
them Fort Necessity. Finally, Fry's men, some 300, arrived
without their leader, he having died on the journey. .With
this force, increased later by a company of South Carolina
troops, Washington was attacked, July 3, 1754, by a greatly
superior body. From eleven in the morning to eight at night

FRENCH AND INDIAN WABS. 13

he held his ground. Then surrendering with the honors
of war, he led his troops back to Will's Creek and abandoned
the Ohio Valley to the French.

A roster of the troops commanded by Washington in the
Battle of the Big Meadows, in 1754, including 263 men,
wounded 43 and killed 12, can be found in the Virginia
Magazine of History, Vol. I, pp. 278-284. The original rolls
are on file in the War Department in Washington.

English Resist Encroachments. Notwithstanding peace by
treaty existed between France and England, every precaution
was taken by the latter country to repel encroachments on the
frontier, but not to invade Canada. Accordingly, all move-
ments were made with these purposes in view.

Arrival of General Braddock in America. On the 20th
of February, 1755, there landed at Hampton, Va., for co-
operation with the colonies against the French in a war soon
to break out in all its fierceness, two regiments of British reg-
ulars, under command of General Braddock,* the newly-
chosen commander-in-chief of English forces in America.
These troops were then transferred to Alexandria, Va., to
which point all the Virginia levies were directed to repair.

Conference at Alexandria. On the 14th of April he held, at
Alexandria, with Commodore Keppel, a conference, at which

* Edward Braddock was bom in Perthshire, Scotland, in 1695 and died near
what is now Pittsburgi Pa., July 13, 1755.

He had had forty yean/ experience in military operations and had attained the
rank of Mi^or-OeneraL

He was thoroughly skilled in the science of war, as deyeloped in the text-books
and practiced among civilized nations. He was '^prond, prejudiced and con-
ceited;" or, as Walpole puts it, ''a very Iroquois in disposition/'

He resented all suggestions that might have aided him in his great expedition.
To Benjamin Franklin's intimation that if he could reach Fort Duquesne he could
donbtlese capture it without much difficulty, but that the long, slender line his
army would have to make *' would be cut like thread into several pieces" by the
hostile Indians, his reply was a '* smile at his ignorance." He declared further
that ''these savages may indeed be a formidable enemy to raw American military,
but upon the king's regular and disciplined troops, sir, it is impossible they should
make an impression."

were present the following governors: William Shirley,*

Four Expeditums Planned. To accomplish the purpose for
which he was sent to America, Braddock projected four dis-

* William Shirley was bom in Preston, England, in 1693. Having become a
lawyer, he settled in Boston in 1734. He was royal governor of Massachusetts
1741;-5; planned a successful expedition against Cape Breton in 1746; lived in
England 1745-63; returned to Massachusetts, as governor, in 1753; treated with
Indians, 1754; was commander-in-chief of British forces in North America at
commencement of French and Indian War; appointed lieutenant-general in
1759; became subsequently governor of Bahama Islands; died at his residence in
* Boxbury, Mass., in March, 1771.

t James De Lancey was bom in New York City, Nov. 27, 1703, and died there
July 30, 1760. He was graduated at Cambridge, England, and subsequently studied
law in the Inner Temple, London. He returned to New York in 1725 and soon
became prominent in public life.' He drafted, in 1730, a new charter for New
York City, and in recognition was granted the freedom of the city, this being the
first bestowment of such an honor. In 1733 he was appointed chief-justice of New
York, and retained the position during the remainder of his life.

He convened and presided over, June 19, 1754, the first Congress ever held, in
Augusta. At its session Benjamin Franklin proposed a plan for the union of all
the colonies, by act of Parliament, against the Indians.

He, as govemor, granted the charter of King's (now Columbia) College, Oct.
31, 1754. The next spring he attended the conference of colonial governors at
Alexandria.

He was a man of great learning and unusual personal influence.

% Bobert Hunter Morris was lientenant-govemor of Pennsylvania from October,
1754, to August, 1756. For twenty-six years he acted as one of the council
of New Jersey, and for a period served as chief-justice, rcasigning in 1757, seven
years prior to his death, which occurred Febraary 20, 1764.

He responded to General Braddock's invitation to the Alexandria Confer-
ence.

I Horatio Sharpe, whose position as proprietoiy govemor of Maryland from 1753
to 1769 made him a conspicuous figure in colonial times, came from London in
the ship MoUy^ commanded by Captain Nicholas Coxen, and arrived at Annapolis
on the 11th of August, 1753.

On February 4, 1754, he visited Baltimore town to study his people, and was
received by .the citizens with wild demonstrations of satisfaction.

In July of the same year he was commissioned lieutenant-colonel in the British
army. He was one of the counsellors with Braddock at the conference in Alex-
andria.

tinct expeditions: Lawrence,* lieutenant-governor of Nova
Scotia, was to secure the right of England in that region;
Johnson, of New York, was to enroll the Mohawk Indians and
lead them against Crown Point ; Shirley agreed to drive the
French from Niagara; and Braddock, commander-in-chief,
reserved the honor of recovering the Ohio Valley.

Expedition against Acadia, In the execution of this pro-
gram Lawrence, with the advice and consent of his counsellors,
decided to remove and disperse the entire French population
of Acadia (or Nova Scotia) among the English colonies of
North America. Colonel John Winslow, commander of the
New England forces, known for the firmness, but humaneness
of his character, was intrusted with the practical execution
of this project. The purpose was to take those of the same
neighborhood and, without severing family ties, plant them
in a new station. In the execution of the scheme some 6,000
persons, men, women and children, were deported. The first
embarkation occurred October 8, 1755.-

Story of Evangeline. In the story of Evangeline, Longfellow
represents these Acadians as a peaceful, simple-hearted people,
and their houses as picturesque, vine-clad, strongly-built cot-
tages — ^the embodiment of all that would be classified as ideal
homes. Instead, however, the people are said to have been
contentious and quarrelsome among themselves, and grossly
superstitious under the priests who dominated them.

Expedition against Orovm Point. General William Johnson,t

* Charles Lawrence was a British general of distinction. He died in Halifax,
Nova Scotia, October 19, 1760.

In 1750 he built Fort Lawrence at the head of the Bay of Fondy. He waa
i^pointed lieutenant-governor in 1754, and governor in 1756. He was made a
colonel in September, 1757, and a brigadier-general the 3l8t of the following
December. He was present at the siege of Louisburg.

t Sir William Johnson was bom in Smithtown, Ireland, 1715; died in Johns-
town, N. Y., July 11, 1774. Was educated for mercantile life, but, disappointed
in love negotiation, he finally located on a tract of land on the Mohawk river,
N. Y., and became a trader with the Indians.

His courtesy, honesty and adaptability to circumstances gave him great power
over the Indians, who made him a sachem.

At the council in Alexandria, April 14, 1755, he was commissioned by Brad-

16 GLEANINGS OP VIRGINIA HISTORY.

of New York, was intrusted with the expedition against Crown
Point, on Lake Champlain. His forces came mainly from
Massachusetts and Connecticut, New Hampshire also supply-
ing one regiment which joined him at Albany.

At the head of navigation on the Hudson there had been
established a fort, which, in honor of a boat commander, had
been called Fort Lyman.

Fort Lyman Changed to Fort Edwards. The name was
changed by Johnson to that of Fort Edwards. A garrison
being left, Johnson, with some 5,000 men, including Hendrick,
the noted Mohawk chief and his warriors, and such noted
men as Israel Putnam and John Stark, started for the head
of Lake George, and thence to Lake Champlain.

Atta/ik on Fort Edwards and Death of Col. Williams. The
French made every effort to check this advance. Baron
Dieskau, collecting 200 regulars and 1,200 Indians and Cana-
dians from the region of Montreal, determined to attack Fort
Edward. Johnson detached 1000 men, under Ephraim Wil-
liams, of Massachusetts, and 200 Mohawks, under Hendrick,
to relieve the post. Advised of their approach, the French
assumed a position in ambush. Presently the English were
entrapped, and on the 5th of September (1755) were defeated,
both Williams and Hendrick losing their lives. As they re-
treated they were assisted by the cannon and forces in camp,
and finally, after a five hours' contest, the enemy were com-
pelled to retreat. In the rout the French and Indians were
also assailed by the New Hampshire regiment on its way from
Fort Edwards, and thrown into a panic-stricken condition,

Though the success of the day was due largely to the efforts
of General Lyman, the honors were assumed by General
Johnson. He was subsequently made a baronet and given a
bonus of £5,000.

dock '' sole superintendent of the afiairs of the six United Kations, their allies
and dependents." He was also made a migor-general and assigned to the leader-
ship against Crown Point.

FRENCH AND INDIAN WARS. 17

Expedition against Niagara. According to the Alexandria
arrangement Shirley was to inarch against Niagara. Colonel
Philip Schuyler had conunand of the first regiment in this
expedition.

At Oswego boats were constructed to carry 600 men by
lake. Shirley, by way of the Mohawk, reached Oswego on
the 21st of August. Delays of various kinds occurred.
Finally, in October, a council of war decided that the attack
on Niagara should be deferred one year.

Shirley's Failwre, Shirley's great project proved abortive,
and terminated ultimately in simply strengthening the de-
fenses of Oswego, and leaving them in command of Colonel
Hugh Mercer with 700 men.

Braddock's Expedition. Braddock's part in this grand move-
ment now needs attention. His forces, designed to capture
Fort Duquesne a^id clear the Ohio Valley, left Alexandria on
the 20th of April. They crept along at the rate of three or
four miles per day, stopping, as Washington said, "to level
every mole-hill ; to erect a bridge^ver every creek."

Finally, on the 9th of July, with about one-half his army,
Braddock reached the vicinity of the fort. No scout had
been employed. The march was along a road twelve feet
wide. Drums and fifes furnished martial music for the oc-
casion.

Battle in Ambush. Suddenly the Indian war-whoop was
heard. His columns were attacked, but no enemy was visible.
Not heeding the advice of his subordinates, he directed his
men to maintain organized form and fire in platoons. The
result of this order was that many of his men were shot by
their comrades.

BraddocVs Defeat and Death. About half the force engaged
— ^viz., 800 men — were killed and wounded. Sixty-four of the
eighty-five officers were lost. Braddock was finally wounded
and the command devolved on Washington. The latter cov-
ered the retreat to Great Meadows, where Braddock died.

Thus ended, in supreme disaster, the leading one of the
2

various campaigns planned by the generul-in-chief of the Enc-
lish army.

Formal Drclaratiotis of War, Though war liad actually
existed between France and England, thus involving their
respective colonics in the New World, the Ibrnial declaration
by England was not made until the 18th of May, 1756, and
by France on the Dth of June following.

Montcalm — JVVw; French Commander. Marquis de Montcalm
became the leader of the French in America. He wa^ fur-
Tiished with two battalions (1200) of men for operation^ in
Canada. His entire command was about 4,000 men. The
militia strength of the province was 10,000 to It5,0n0, }>ut this
^was hardly reliable. Meanwhile, Montcalm strengthened the
outlying forte, and endeavored to ascertain from Indian scouts
the strength of the British in opposition. These scouts seemed
to be open to negotiations, and hence were somewhat un-
reliable.

Shirley Commayider-in-Chief. After the death of Braddock,
Shirley became commander of the British forces in America.
His military training was inadequate, and his plans, though
gigantic, were not successful. In his proposed operations
against Crown Point, Lake Ontario, Fort Duquesne, and up
the Kennebec river, he was anticipated and checked by Mont-
calm, who easily took a number of the English forts and de-
stroyed them.

Earl of Loudoun Succeeds Shirley, Shirley was succeeded by
John Campbell, Earl of Loudoun, noted later for his ** mas-
terly inactivity and indecision." As a result, the year 1757
was not distinguished by any military movement of much
importance to the English. In fact, it was to them the dark-
est period of the war.

Capture of Fort George by Mcmtcalm., Montcalm took the
initiative, and with 7,606 men penetrated the countr}' and
invested Fort George. On the 9th of August the fort was
compelled to surrender, with 2,264 men. By this victory the
French acquired complete control of Lakes Champlain and

FRENCH AND INDIAN WARS. 19

George. The destruction of Oswego gave them control of the
Great Lakes, and the retention of Fort Duquesne held control
of the Mississippi Valley.

William i^, Head of English Mimstry. A change in Eng-
lish administration now began. William Pitt was placed at
the head of affairs, and his letters assured all the colonies of a
new order of things and inspired Aill confidence. He assured
them of complete co-operation in the war against the French,
and called for volunteers. Massachusetts agreed to furnish
7,000 men ; Connecticut, 5,000 ; New Hampshire, 3,000.

THREE EXPEDITIONS PROJECTED— LOUISBURG CAPTURED BY
ABBROROMBIB.

Under the new regime three expeditions were proposed :

The first was against Louisburg. An army of 14,000 men,
under command of Major-General Jeffery Amherst, captured
the place July 26, 1758.

Attack on Ticonderoga. The second was that under Lieu-
tenant-General James Abercrombie, successor, as commander-
in-chief, of Loudoun in America, against Ticonderoga and
Crown Point. The attack on Ticonderoga occurred on the
8th of July, 1758, and was quite disastrous, the English loss
in killed and wounded being 2,000 men.

Forbes' Expedition against Duquesne. The third was the
second expedition against Fort Duquesne. It began in Octo-
ber, 1758, under the direction of Brigadier-General John
Forbes. His command consisted of 1,200 Highlanders, 350
royal Americans, and about 5,000 provincials. In the latter
number were 2,000 Virginians, under command of Colonel
Washington.

Fort Captured and Name Changed to Fort Pitt. Though
Forbes started from Philadelphia in July, he did not reach
Raystown (now Somerset, Pa.) until September. He did not
leave Raystown until October, and, owing to obstructions to
his march, he did not arrive at Fort Duquesne until the 25th
of November. " The garrison, being deserted by the Indians,

20 GLEANINGS OF VIRGINIA HISTORY.

and too weak to maintain the place against the formidable
army which was approaching, abandoned the fort the evening
before the arrival of the British and escaped down the Ohio in
boats/' An English garrison was placed, and the fortification
had its name changed to Fort Pitt, in compliment to the new
and popular minister of state.

General Amherst Succeeds Abercrombie. In the meantime
General Amherst was appointed (Sept. 30, 1758) commander-
in-chief of the English forces, his victory at Louisburg having
led to the same.

Campaigna of 1769. The campaigns of 1759 were more
favorable to the English. Under the skillfiil operations
of Major-General James Wolfe, consummated by General
Townshend, his successor, Quebec was captured in September.
On the 25th of July Fort Niagara, under the command
of Ponchot, was forced to capitulate.

Presque Isle, Venango and Le Boeuf were, in consequence
of lack of support, easily taken by Colonel Bouquet, who had
been sent to summon them to surrender.

Ticonderoga and Crown Point were taken with comparative
ease ; and the only point of importance uncaptured was Mon-
treal. Finally, after concentrating at that place the various
armies which had operated in Canada, the city capitulated
and the English flag was hoisted on the 8th of September,
1760. The conquest was complete. It was the end of " New
France."

Treaty of Peace, The end of the French and Indian War
was fixed by the Treaty of Paris, February 10, 1763, by which
the French king lost his entire possessions in the New World.
Pontiac's Conspiracy. Though the war had nominally
ended, Indian depredations did not cease. Pontiac, chief of
the Ottowas, who is supposed to have been present at Brad-
dock's defeat, endeavored to form a imion of the Indians
against the English. In May, 1763, nine garrisons, ranging
in position from western Pennsylvania to Mackinaw, were
either destroyed or dispersed. From May 12th to the 12th

FRENCH AND INDIAN WARS. 21

of the succeeding October in the same year, Pontiac personally
conducted an attack on Detroit.

Depredations against settlers in Maryland, Virginia and
Pennsylvania were frequent. These were the result of a jeal-
ousy felt by Pontiac because he did not receive from the Eng-
lish the recognition which he considered due him. This
feeling allied him to the French, and finally alienated his
followers from him. In 1766 he made terms with the
English.

CoL Bouqu€t*B Expedition. Colonel Henry Bouquet was a
British soldier of courage and ability. He co-operated with
Forbes in the expedition which captured Duquesne in 1758.
In 1763 he was ordered to go from Philadelphia with 500
Highlanders to the relief of Fort Pitt. At Bushy Run, on the
5th of August, he encountered a force of Indians, which he
defeated with the loss, on his side, of 8 oflBcers and 115 men.
Two days later he relieved the fort.

Expeditions against Ohio Indians. In October, 1764, he
conducted an expedition against the Ohio Indians and com-
pelled them to make peace at Tuscarawas.

Lord Dunmore^s War. Lord Dunmore, governor of Virginia
from 1772 to 1776, was suspected of playing double. While
efforts were being made by the General Congress, in 1774, to
resist the encroachments of Great Britain against the colonies,
and while the Indians were committing depredations along
the western frontiers, the indignation of the people compelled
their reluctant governor to take up arms and march against
the very Indians whom he was suspected of having incited by
intrigues to hostility.

Colonel Lewis' Victory at Point Pleasant. Lord Dunmore
marched his army in two columns; the one under Colonel
Andrew Lewis he sent to the junction of the Great Kanawha
with the Ohio, while the other he led to a point higher up on
the Ohio, with the alleged purpose of destroying certain In-
dian towns and then joining Lewis at Point Pleasant. The
real purpose, however, is suspected to have been the concen-

22 GLEANINGS OP VIRGINIA HISTORY.

trating of the entire Indian force upon Lewis and thus weaken-
ing and humiliating Virginia. If such were his purpose, he
was thoroughly disappointed ; for Lewis, with inferior numbers,
but unusual skill and gallantry, met the Indians at Point
Pleasant October 10, 1774, and after a day's hard fighting and
the loss of nearly all his oflBcers, completely defeated them.

The immediate eflTect was visible in the migration which at
once began to seek homes in Kentucky, eastern Tennessee,
and the more remote regions of the Northwest. It developed
the pioneer movements of Boone in Kentucky, Robertson and
Sevier in East Tennessee, and George Rodgers Clark in the
Northwest. With this theory coincides the view that Lewis
was a patriot and Lord Dunmore a traitor to the best interests
of Virginia and the whole country.

We need not express surprise, therefore, that the name
of Dunmore county was changed to Shenandoah in 1777, one
of the delegates to the Assembly saying : " My constituents no
longer wish to live in, nor do I desire to represent, a county
bearing the name of such a Tory. I therefore 'move to call it
Shenandoah, after the beautiftil stream which passes through
it." His motion prevailed.

THE SCOTCH-ntlSH OF AUGUSTA COUNTY. 113

THE SCOTCH-IRISH OF AUGUSTA COUNTY,
VIRGINIA.

So much has been written concemmg that sturdy race who
called themselves Scotch-Irish, and who were the pioneer
settlers of the upper Valley of the Shenandoah, and beyond,
that any extended notice of them and their characteristics
would be mere repetition of many abler writers. However, as
this work contains the names of so many people of that race
who constituted the skirmish line of civilization, a few words
here concerning them may not be out of place.

All authorities concede that John Lewis led the van of this
heroic race when he settled, in 1732, near the present city
of Staunton. But there soon gathered around him many
of his own race, who bore their parts manfiiUy in the develop-
ment of a new country, and whose descendants, now scattered
through many states of the West, South, and Southwest, still
preserve the characteristics which made their forefathers con-
spicuous in earlier times.

These pioneer settlers of Augusta were men of deep religious
convictions, and their churches were the centres from which
radiated the influence of the various communities as a whole.
The Augusta, or Old Stone Church, was the first to be estab-
lished, in 1740, and this venerable structure, erected more
than a century and a half ago, still stands as a monument to
the heroic men and women by whom it was built in days
of difficulty and trial. Tinkling Spring Church, also estab-
lished in 1740, was perhaps stronger in numbers and wealth
than the Augusta Church, but three or four church structures
have been erected there since the establishment of the congre-
gation, and therefore it is not so interesting historically as the
other.

During the period of the French and Indian War the
Scotch-Irish of Augusta, which then comprised an immense
8

114 GLEANINGS OF VIRGINIA HISTORY.

territory to the west and southwest, stood as a bulwark against
Indian incursions east of the Blue Ridge, and so valuable
were the services nnidered by these people that colonial laws
asserting the supremacy of the Episcopal, or Established
Church, were not enforced against these Dissenting Presby-
terians.

When the prelude of the Revolution began, the Scotch-Irish
of the upper valley marched to Point Pleasant, and there,
under the command of General Andrew Lewis, son of the
pioneer settler of Augusta, fought one of the bloodiest battles
with the Indians to be found in the annals of our colonial
histor)^ In this engagi iii.Lt it is stated that 650 men from
Augusta County alone participated, and by that time the
limits of the county had been very much reduced. When the
Revolution opened, the sons and grandsons of the original
settlers were almost unanimously in favor of American inde-
pendence, and Scotch-Irish officers and men weriT found on
every field of the Revolution, from Saratoga to Yorktown.

It would be impossible, within the limits of this brief sketch,
to give the names of all officers worthy of mention who entered
the service froin " Aligusta County ; but Andrew Lewis, who
commanded at Point Pleasant, was a Brigadier-General of the
Virginia Continental Line, and wivs chiefly instrumental in
driving Lord Dunmore, the last of tlie Virginia colonial gov-
ernors, from her borders. Three of his brothers were officers
of rank during the Revolution, and Robert and Alexander
Breckenridge were captains of the line in the same struggle.
Stout George Mathews, colonel of the 9th Virginia Line,
entered the service from Augusta, and was captured with his
regiment at the battle of Germantown, Pa., because he dared
to press too far against the British centre without proper sup-
port. Col. George Moffett, county lieutenant of Augusta,
marched witli his militia to South Carolina, and aided Morgan
in winning tlie brilliant victory of the Cowpens. Robert,
James, Andrew, and William, sons of John Anderson, who
was one of the first elders of the Old Stone Church, were brave

THE SCOTCH-IKISH OP AUGUSTA COUNTY. 115

and efficient officers in the Revolutionary army, the first
serving in South Carolina as colonel under Greneral Pickens,
and the other three as captains. Robert Gamble, a captain
of the line, led the forlorn hope at the capture of Stony Point,
and his younger brother John also served as an officer in the
American army. James Tate, a' captain of the Augusta
militia, gave up his life at Guilford Court House, and many
other names might be added to this list.

During the invasion of Virginia, in 1781, the militia
of Augusta were almost constantly on the march, and many
of them were at Yorktown, where the final act in the drama
was played.

When the Revolution ended, these brave and enterprising
men began the march of civilization westward, and the first
settlers of Kentucky were almost entirely from the upper por-
tion of the Virginia Valley. The Prestons, Breckenridges,
Logans, Aliens, Trimbles, Andersons, McDowells, and many
others, sought their fortunes in the new lands west of the
Allegheny Mountains, and from these pioneer settlers has de-
scended a race of people unsurpassed by any in the world for
chivalry, courage, eloquence, and statesmanship. They have
been found in every station of life, filling well the place which
destiny has assigned to them, and the highest tribute which
could be paid to the Scotch-Irish pioneers of Augusta County
would be the roster of distinguished men who trace their
ancestry to this section of the Valley of Virginia.

ELEC?TION OF BURGESSBS, FAIRFAX COUNTY. 125

Fairfax county was formed in 1742 from Prince William.
At the date of this poll, in 1744, it still included what is now
Loudoun county. The latter, however, was detached in 1757.
The voters whose names are given in the foregoing list were
included, therefore, in the inhabitants then living within
what are now Fairfax and Loudoun counties.*

* It may be of interest to note the fact that in the year 1769 the House of Bur-
gesses of Virginia passed an act concerning the manner in which members of this
body should be elected. Section 7 of said act provides as follows: ''And be it
further enacted, by the authority aforesaid, That after publication of such writs,
and at the day and place of election, every freeholder actually resident within his
county shall personally appear, and give his vote, upon penalty of forfeiting two
hundred pounds of tobacco to any person or persons who will inform or sue for
the same, recoverable, with costs, by action of debt or information, in any court
of this dominion.'' Hening's Statutes, vol. 8, page 308.

VIMINIA IN THE EEVOLUTION.

The part which Virgmia took in the Revolutionary War
cannot be detailed in this work. We can give only a few
items to show that as a state she performed her full duty,
though complete credit has not been given to her in the past.

By virtue of her location she was a battlefield during the
Revolution, especially during the closing period. The ser-
vices of her militia were not taken into account, and hence by
comparison with other states she appears to have furnished a
smaller number of troops than were her quota.

She had, however, a goodly number of militia, or minute-
men, whose services were confined to state territory. The
Virginia Historical Magazine began, in 1898, the publication
of the lists of these men, commencing with 1777. The infor-
mation fiirnished is exceedingly valuable and is heartily com-
mended to our readers.

A very interesting list of the Continental Line during the
Revolution, including the general-in-chief, mcgor-generals,
colonels, lieutenant-colonels, majors, captains, lieutenants, etc.,
may be seen in Vol. 2, pp. 243 to 258 of the Virginia Maga-
zine of History and Biography; and a corresponding list
of the State Line of the same period on pages 357 to 370
of the same publication.

The total contribution by Virginia of troops of all kinds, in-
cluding continental and state forces, militia, riflemen, rangers,
minutemen, etc., may not be correctly stated. At the opening
of the war, and also during its progress, men enlisted for a
year at a time. Some of them enlisted several times in

succession.

(126)

VIBOINIA IN THE REVOLUTION.

127

In making up the total service, these repetitions need to be
considered. The State's contribution to the Continental army
is given, however, as 26,678 ; to which are to be added some
30,000 members of State forces, making a total of 56,678 men.
The only state which claims to have approximated Virginia's
forces was the state of Massachusetts, with 87,907 men. This
number, for reasons stated elsewhere, must be accepted with a
grain of allowance.

Virginia had originally fifteen regiments in the Continental
service.

In a letter to General Washington, in 1776, Richard Peters,
Secretary of the Board of War, transmits the following list
of Field Officers in the Service of Virginia. See American
Archives, 6 series, vol. 2, page 320.

October 18, 1776, it was resolved by the House of Delegates
that six new battalions of Infantry be raised and employed in
the Continental Service ; and that provision be made for com-
pleting the nine battalions formerly raised, and extending the
additional bounty to such of them as shall be willing to enlist
on like terms. (See Am. Arch., 6 series, vol. 2, page 1112.)
Under this order the following men were appointed colonels
on the 15th of November : Edward Stevens, Daniel Morgan,
James Wood, Samuel Meredith, Charles Lewis, and David
Mason. (See Am. Arch., 5 series, vol. 3, page 695.)

128 GLEANINGS OF VIRGINIA HISTORY.

HISTORICAL NOTES.

As showing the changes and diflSculties in^mobilizing her
forces, we have examined the original archives and made note
of some things which will tend to throw light upon this period.
So far as possible, the chronological order is observed.

By the Continental Congress it was decreed, August 13th,
1776, that the 8th Virginia should have pay from May 27th,
and the 7th from 17th of the same month.

The first Virginia regiment marched from Williamsburg
for New York the 16th of August, 1776.

On the 21st of August, 1776, the captains and subalterns
of the 1st and 2d regiments presented a petition to the gov-
ernor and council of the State to have their relative ranks
properly adjusted as compared with the forces of North
Carolina.

At the October session of the General ■i.ssembly, held in
Williamsburg, it was announced that six additional battalions
of infantry were to be raised. The reward was : *' To every
non-commissioned oflBcer and private soldier a present bounty
of twenty dollars, an annual bounty of a suit of clotlies — ^to
consist for the present year of two linen hunting shirta, two
pair of overalls, a leathern or woolen waistcoat with sleeves,
one pair of breeches, a hat or leathern cap, two shirts, two
pair of hose, and two pair of shoes, amounting in the whole
to the value of twenty dollars, or that sum to be paid to each
soldier who shall procure those articles for himself — and to
provide the following portions of land, to be given at the
close of the war, or whensoever discharged, to the oflScers and
soldiers who shall engage in the said service, or their repre-
sentatives, if slain by the enemy, to wit: To every non-
commissioned ofiicer or soldier, one hundred acres ; to every
ensign, one hundred and fifty acres ; to every lieutenant, two
hundred acres ; to every captain, three hundred acres ; to
every major, four hundred acres ; to every lieutenant-colonel,
four hundred and fifty acres ; and to every colonel, five hun-
dred acres."

VIRGINIA IN THE REVOLUTION. 129

On the Ist of November, 1776, four companies of the Vir-
ginia Battalion on the eastern shore were directed to march,
under coromand of a field oflBcer, to Dover, Del., and await
ftirther orders.

On the 1st of November, 1776, it was ordered by Congress
that commissions be granted to fill vacancies in the 4th, 5th
and 6th Virginia Battalions; and on the 6th, Brigadier-
General Stephens was directed to fill in dates and deliver the
commissions.

November 4, 1776, Capt. George Gibson, of the 1st regi-
ment, sent by the governor to New Orleans on a special expe-
dition, was provided by Caesar Rodney, at Dover, Del., with
a number of horses and £6 for expenses.

On the 5th of November, 1776, the returns of the 1st regi-
ment, under command of Col. John Fleming, showed present
a total strength of 486 officers and men.

On the same date the 3d regiment, under command of Col.
George Weeden, at Camp John Fushee's, had 603 rank and file.

November 20th, 1776, Col. Wm. Crawford, of the 7th regi-
ment, severed his relation with the command, and, in reply
to a testimonial of confidence by his subordinates, expressed
his purpose to devote himself "to the utmost defense of Amer-
ican liberty, justice, and the rights of humanity."

On the 26th of November, 1776, it was directed that a
regiment of artillery, to be armed with muskets and bayonets,
should be raised in Virginia, to include two companies
already formed.

At Williamsburg, on the 6th of December, 1776, Col.
Thomas Fleming, of the 9th regiment, issued an order calling
for the return of all officers and soldiers absent with leave
and the joining of the regiment at Philadelphia on its march
to reinforce Washington.

On the 27th of December, 1776, it was decreed by Congress
that the Virginia militia marching to the aid of Washington
should receive a pair of shoes and stockings, and the same
rations and monthly pay as were given to other continental

troops.
9

130 GLEANINGS OP VIRGINIA HISTORY.

On the same day, the 2d and 7th Virginia Foments, with
all convalescents from other commands left in the State, were
ordered to march at once to join Washington.

On the same day, too, owing to the necessity of reinforcing
Washington at once, Virginia was " empowered to call into
service, at the continental expense, three regiments of militia,
or minutemen, if such measure shall hy that state be judged
necessary."

These troops were enlisted 'Ho serve during the continuance
of the present war, unless sooner discharged."

By the session of the Assembly, which began May 6th,
1777, was authorized the forming of militia companies of males
over 16 and less than 60 years of age. These companies were
to be not less than 32 nor more than 68 in number, and were
to meet for muster once per month, at 11 o'clock, accoutred as
follows : County lieutenants, colonels, lieutenant-colonels, and
mm*or, with sword ; captains and lieutenants, with firelock
and bayonets, cartouch-boz, sword, and three charges of pow-
der and balls ; every ensign with sword ; every non-commis-
sioned officer and private with rifle and tomahawk, good
firelock and bayonet, with pouch and horn, or cartouch or
cartridge-box, and with three charges of powder and ball.

At the October session it was enacted, that to assimilate the
Virginia with those from other states, fourteen of the said
r^ments be reduced to eight companies each, and then be
completed by volunteers or drafts. It was also suggested that
the officers of the fourteen regiments, including those of the
9th captured at Germantown, co-operate in this work. In the
draft Mennonites and Quakers were to be exempt. Enlist-
ments were for three years or during the war.

The following letter from Governor Henry to John Law-
rence, aide-de-camp on the staff* of General Washington, indi-
cates the difficulty of securing recruits from Virginia in the
year 1778.

Accordingly, in September, 1778, the fifteen regiments from
Virginia were reduced to eleven in number and reorganized

as follows : The 9th was joined with the 1st; the 6th with the

the 11th.

WniTJAifflBUBG, June IB, 1778.

Sir: Qeaenl Washington sent me an account of the Drafted Soldiers that haye
joined the army from this state; and it appears that not one-half of the nmnber
voted by the Assembly have got to camp. Truth obliges me to add that very few
more of the Drafts wiU eyer be got into the service.

I lament this capital deficiency in our Qpota of troops; but no efforts of the
Executive have been sufficient to prevent it

The Assembly, at their late sitting, have directed three hundred and fifty cav-
alry and two thousand infantry to be forthwith raised and to join the grand army.
Some of the former wiU be raised, but from every i^pearance I am sorry to say
there is little reason to expect any success in getting the infantry. I can only
assure you, sir, that I shall pay due regard to the Bequisition you are pleased to
make for compleating our quota of men by exerting myself to the utmost, altho'
I fear it will be in vain.

With highest regard, I have the honor to be, sir,

Your most obedient and humble servant,

Patrick Henrt.
The Honorable Mr. Lawrence.

In March, 1781, an act was passed to raise two l^ons for

132 GLEANINGS OP VIRGINIA HISTORY.

defense of the State. The preamble, which is quite historic,
provides: "Whereas, at this critical juncture, when the enemy
have made this state the object of their vengeance, it is neces-
sary to provide a standing force for the immediate defense
thereof It is therefore enacted that two legions, to consist
of six companies of infantry and one troop of cavalry, of one
hundred men each, be forthwith raised to serve during the
war, but not to take the field or to do duty except in cases
of actual or threatened invasion."

On the 7th of May, 1781, the Assembly began its sessions
in Richmond, and continued them, by adjournment, to
Staunton, in Augusta county. This transfer, made necessary
by military conditions, was authorized under a general law
of the Assembly.

At this session the governor was authorized to appoint re-
cruiting officers to enlist, by persuasion, three thousand sol-
diers for two years, or during war — each to be 5 ft. 4 in. high,
not a deserter, not subject to fits, of able body and sound mind.

Virginia in the navy during the Revolution was not so
conspicuous as in her land service. Her work was meritor-
ious, and her officers occupied honorable positions. On this
subject valuable information and authentic lists of names,
with relative ranks, may be found in the Virginia Magazine
of History and Biography, vol. 1, pp. 64-75.

It may be proper to say, that conspicuous among these
naval heroes was Commodore James Barron, who, with his
brother Richard, commanded "The Liberty" and "The
Patriot," two important vessels during this period. Commo-
dore Barron participated in twenty different actions, in all
of which he was very successful. He died in 1787. His
sons, James and Samuel, were also conspicuous in naval
affairs during and subsequent to the Revolution. Descendants
of the Barrons subsequently located in Maryland, concerning
whom it may be well to consult Genealogical Manuscript, by
the author of this volume.

Virginia had a good representation in the artillery branch

VIRGINIA IN THE REVOLUTION. 133

of the service. Companies were commanded by Captains
Nathaniel Burwell, Thomas Baytop, Samuel Booker, John C.
Carter, Whitehead Coleman, John Dandridge, Samuel Eddens,
John Gregory, John Henry, Valentine Peyton, James Pendle-
ton, William Pierce, George Rice, Drury Ragsdale, and An-
thony Singleton.

Nine of these companies, viz., Nos. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, and
10, commanded respectively by Captains Pierce, Burwell,
Singleton, Ragsdale, Pendleton, Dandridge, Eddens, Baytop,
and Henry, were attached to Col. Charles Harrison's Virginia
and Maryland Regiment of Artillery, from Nov. 30, 1776, to
April, 1782. They were stationed at Valley Forge, Smith's
Clove, Pluckemin, and camp near Chester at various times.

Captain Burwell was commissioned an aide to Brig.-Gen.
Robt. Howe, Nov. 30, 1776, and served to the end of the war.

The scope of this volume will not permit the tracing in
detail of the changes through which the various organizations
passed from first to last. As battalions became depleted they
were consolidated, and this resulted in many supernumerary
oflBcers, who had either to be retired from the service or
assigned to other commands.

Great interest will attach to the accompanying final pay-roll
of oflScers at the close of the Revolution.

170 GLEANINGS OF VIRGINIA HISTORY.

In many cases M' Dunscomb has credited in his settlements more specie than
the officer was entitled to. Where I find an officer has actoallj drawn more
specie than he was entitled to receive — I have admitted the credits which have
been given them by Dunscomb — because they have been finally settled with and
received their certificates — and there is no hold left upon them — this appears to
have been wrong in M' Dunscomb, for, in Justice, an officer in this situation
should return such [torn out] of specie — and receive certificates in (?) —
Where he has credited too much to an officer — and the officer has not received
the full am* of such credit^the supposed balance in specie should be paid in cer-
tificates—for instance:

DoU«.
He credits Col. Nat. Gist with 7 m" pay in 1782

& 3, which is 625

Ck>l. Gist has actually rec* 6 M*^ in specie, which is

all he ought to have — and amounts to 450

The remainder [torn out]

525

The above example, and the following one of M' Breckenridge, which I believe
elucidate the general principles on which I have proceeded in the business — ^with-

PETITION FROM FAIRFAX COUNTY, VA., FOR IM
PORTATION OF SALT.

ViRQiNiA, Fairfax County, 1
N(yv. SS, 1775. ]
Sir : The Committee of this county, informed of the present
scarcity of salt in the colony in general, and in this part of it
in particular, sensible of the Difficulty, perhaps impracticabil-
ity, of procuring it if not done this winter, and apprehensive
of the great distress and Discontent that the want of this
necessary article may occasion among the people, as well as
the impossibility of furnishing proper provisions for the R^-
ments of minute men and draughts from our militia which
may be called into service next spring, have directed us to
apply to the Honorable, the Continental Congress, praying
them to encourage the Importation of salt, either by permit-
ting the exportation of Country produce in return, in such
manner as is allowed upon the importation of military stores,
or in such other manner as that Honorable Board shall judge
best. We beg leave, sir, thro' you, to lay this request, as a
matter of the utmost importance to the good people of this
colony and the public service, before the gentlemen of the
Congress, and are,

With greatest respect, sir.

Your most obedient servants,
G. Mason,

John Dalton, Committee of
Wm. Ramsay, Correspondence
John Carlyle, ' of Fairfax
John Muir, cownty.

James Kirk. ^
To John Hancock, Esq.,

PtesiderU of the Congress.

This petition at the opening of the Revolutionery struggle
incidentally presents several matters of importance: 1. It

G0BRE8P0NDSNCB OF WASHINGTON AND GATES. 173

shows the value of salt as a household commodity, and the
difficulty of procuring it at a time when means of rapid and
easy communication were wanting. 2. It also shows that at
this early period the military strength was supplied by
"minute-men" and by drafts fix)m the "militia."

In the list of signers will be found the names of persons in
whom posterity will doubtless be interested.

CORRESPONDENCE OF WASHINGTON AND GATES
WITH COLONEL BEDEL.

Cambridgb, la February, 1776.

Sir: The Continental Congress, haveing calld upon the
Gk>yemment of New Hampshire to raise a Regiment for the
Service of the United Colonies, which they have accordingly
complied with, and appoint you to the command, I have to
desire, that you will use all the deligence & dispatch possible,
to raise the said Regiment & march it into Canada takeing
your Rout by Number four and Onion River, where a Suply
of provisions will be laid up, by order of Major General
Schuyler.

This Regiment is to be raised upon the Continental estab-
lishment, agreeable to the terms & requisitions of the Congress
as transmitted to the Honble Convention of New Hampshire,
the necessity of reinforceing our troops, posted before & form-
ing the Blockade of Quebec, is too apparent to need being
dwelt on, I would therefore have you order each Company to
March, as fast as they are raised, and on their arrival put
themselves under the Command of the General or Command-
ing officer in Canada.

Your Colony will provide you with such necessarys, as are
indespensably wanting for the use of your Regiment, in the

174 QLKANINGS OF VIRGINIA HISTOKY.

takeing up of which, and your expences on the March I
recommend the utmost Oeconomy, that can be used consistant
with dispatch —

You will take under your care the Coghnawaga Indians,
who are now here and conduct them in the safest and most
agreeable manner to themselves, into Canada. You are to
bear their expenses, for which purpose I now give you a war-
rant on the paymaster General for the sum of £100. — D. M.^

You must keep a just account of its expenditure, & render
the same to the Commissary of the Northern department when
you get there he will be advertized of this matter and directed
to settle with you, —

these sir, are your Instructions, to which I doubt not you
will pay a proper attention that you may have a share in the
G|jry of expelling the instruments of Ministerial Tyranny from
that fair province, is the Sincere wish of

Sir, Your most H. S*.,

(Signed) G*. Washington.

Colonel Bbdel,

on the service of the United Colonies.

Camp, 4th October, 1777.
Dear Bedel : I sent your faithful friend Louis to assist you
in immediately bringing forward to my assistance all The St.
Francis Indians who have lately come to Co'hos, with all
those who, from Friendship to you and aflFection to Our Noble
Cause, are ready to step forth at this important Crisis to put a
finishing Stroke to this Campaign. The Enemy are at their
last Gasp in every Question ; A Bold Stroke in Each Gives
peace & Freedom to America, that you & I may live to see
^ Enjoy that Blessing is the anxious Wish of your aiBFection-
ate Friend ^^^ Humble Servant,

[Signed] Horatio Gates.
Col. Bedel, Co'hos.

CORKESPONDBNCE OF WASHINGTON AND GATES. 175

War Oppicb, March 4,, 1778.

Sir : As the irruption intended to be made into Canada is
suspended by a resolve of Congress, on account of the insuper-
able difiSculties in getting the necessaries in so short a period
as the advanced season would admit, the raising your regi-
ment is needless and improper. You will, therefore, cease
your proceedings on this account and dismiss any men you
may have inlisted, that the continent may be put to no un-
necessary expence.

Such charges as you have incurred in preparing for the
expedition you will exhibit a State of to the Dep. Pay Master
General at Albany, who will settle with you for the same.

I am, Sir, your most h'ble servt.,

[Signed] Horatio Gates,
President of the War Office.

P. S. It will be proper that Msgor Whitcomb rejoin his
Companies, with his present rank.

To CoL. TiM^ Bedel, at Coos.

War Office.

Col. Timothy Bedel was a prominent Revolutionary officer
from New Hampshire. He served as lieutenant in Goflfe's
regiment in 1760, in Canada. July 6, 1775, he was appointed
captain of rangers, and on the 20th of January, 1776, was
made Colonel of the 1st N. H. regiment, joining the Northern
army under General Schuyler.

For neglect of duty he was tried by Court martial in
August, 1776, and cashiered. Despite this action, however,
he was shown great consideration by Generals Washington
and Gates, as will appear from the foregoing letters, and from
the additional fact that he was subsequently made a Major
General of his state militia. He died in Haverhill, N. H., in
February, 1787.

178 GLEANINGS OF VIRGINIA HISTORY.

Valley Forge is a village in Chester County, Pa., twenty-
four miles west of Philadelphia.

It was the location of Washington's army from the middle
of December, 1777, to June 18, 1778. It was selected to prch
tect Congress at York, Pa., whither that body had adjourned
from Philadelphia in consequence of the occupation of the
latter place by the British.

At this place Baron Steuben assumed the duties of Inspector-
General of the American army. Here, also, Washington an-
nounced, on the 6th of May, 1778, the treaty of onr alliance
with France.

The American forces numbered about 11,000, only about
one-half of whom, however, were in condition for service.
Their sufferings were intense — a fact known to every tyro in
history.

Beceived, 20th Maj, 1778, of Captain John Lee, Acting Paj Master of the
Virginia State Begiment, Commanded by Col. Geoi^ge Gibson, the som of one
thousand and forty-fiye doUars and |{ parts of a doUai^being money in his hand

by J. O. *

Col. George Gibson was born in Lancaster, Pa., in October,
1747, and died at Fort Jeflferson, Dec. 14, 1791.

His scholastic education was secured at an Academy, but it
was subsequently made practical by business training in a
mercantile house in Philadelphia.

ISA QLBANIKGS OF YIBOIKIA HI8TQBT.

At the opening of the Revolution he fonned a company of
a hundred men at Fort Pitt, and marching to Williamsburg,
Va., was commissioned a captain in the Viiginia line. Owing
to the scarcity of powder and lead, he was selected by the
governor to negotiate secretly with Spain, for a supply of
these materials. He was successful in procuring supplies not
only for Virginia, but for the other Colonies. For his ser-
vices in this matter he was subsequently appointed colonel of
the first Virginia regiment.

His men, known as '' Gibson's lambs," were skilled sharp-
shooters ; and being distinguished for independence and per-
sonal bravery, assisted in repelling Lord Dunmore's attack on
Hampton, October 25, 1775.

He served with Washington through much of the Revolu-
tion, his command of the first regiment extending from June
6, 1777, to January, 1782. As a supernumerary oflBcer he con-
ducted the march of the British captured at Yorktown to the
town of York, Pa., where they remained under his command
until they were sent to England.

The war being over, Gibson retired to his farm in Cumber-
land county, Penn., where, for a time, he held the position of
county lieutenant. He was not permitted, however, to remain
in retirement. In 1791 he was made Colonel of Penn. and
New Jersey troops, and participated in St. Clair's Defeat near
Fort Recovery, Ohio, on the 4th of November of that year.
In this battle he was mortally wounded, and his death
occurred on the 14th of the following December.

Col. Gibson was a brave and meritorious officer.

216 GLEANINGS OF VIRGINIA HISTORY.

Colonel Theodoric Bland, a revolutionary hero, was born in
Prince George county, Va., January 28, 1742, and died in
New York City, June 1, 1790.

His preparatory training was received in England, but his
medical preparation was secured in the University of Edin-
burg. He began his practice of medicine in 1774. He was
one of the number who petitioned the house of burg^ses to
enact a law forbidding any one not properly licensed to prac-
tice medicine within the province.

He continued to practice his profession until the breaking
out of the Revolution. Joining the colonists he became cap-
tain of the first troop of Virginia cavalry. After the enroll-
ment of six companies he entered the service regularly in 1777
with the rank of lieutenant-colonel. Subsequently he attained
the rank of colonel, and rendered efficient service throughout
the remainder of the war, enjoying the personal confidence
and friendship of Washington.

He participated in the battle of Brandy wine; and con-
ducted to Charlottesville, Va., the prisoners captured at Sara-
toga, October 17, 1777.

In civil life he was active. He served one term in the
Virginia Senate, and from 1780 to 1783 was a member of the
Continental Congress. He opposed the adoption of the pres-
ent Federal Constitution, but was a member of the first Con-
gress convened under its provisions, his term beginning March
30, 1789. See **The Bland Papers,'' published 1840-3.

The Courts Martial Record of Augusta county, Va., filed in
the office of the clerk of The Corporation Court for the city of

Givens' company was ordered to rendezvous under the com-
mand of Lieutenant-Col. Samuel Vance.

Palmer's Calendar of Va. State Papers, Vol. 2, page 514,

spelled Vame, which is clearly an error.

His command, including Capt. Givens' company, was then
only a few miles distant from Yorktown, in the siege, of which
they participated.

June eist, 178^. )

Sir : We the late officers of the American Army, deranged
by the Resolution of Congress of the 2nd instant having been
reduced to the necessity of adopting a measure, which may
possibly by some be thought unjustifiable without the motives
and reasons of our conduct being fully explained have thought
proper in this collective manner to communicate the transac-
tion and the reasons on which it is grounded.

From the assurances of the Commander-in-Chief, and the
other characters who were intrusted by Congress to arrange
the troops who were to remain in service after the 1st of Jan-
uary, 1784, and in whom we placed the fullest confidence, we

had every prospect of Punctual Payment for our Services.
With this view we gave up every idea of business and were at
very great Expense in making our arrangements as military
Characters. Having made every Preparation for the year
The Resolution of Congress which dismissed us, arrived at a
very unexpected period. Being made however by the Sov-
ereign power of the Country we acquiessed with that cheerful!-
ness and obedience which becomes Servants of the public.
The same Resolution of Congress by which we obtained our
dismission granted us only two months pay in notes of the
Financier, and directed final settlement Certificates for the
discharge of the other four — upon an adjustment of our
accounts we found this sum by no means suflScient to satisfy
those demands which had necessarily incurred during a ser-
vice of six months. In a situation so distressing we looked
around for a possibility of Relief — Nothing presented itself
but an order on Mr. Lovell, which you had placed in the
hands of the Pay master for the officers subsistence, after de-
ducting three months subsistence for those who were to remain
in service, including the Invalids we found there was a
sufficient sum to furnish us with six weeks pay, and on an
application to the person with whom it was intrusted for the
purpose of exchange, he delivered the money, taking our re-
ceipts to that amount received of the Regimentel Pay Master
on account of our four months pay for the year 1784.

Thus Sir have we stated to you in the clearest manner the
measures we have taken and the necessity which induced
them. We fully persuaded ourselves they will be considered
as perfectly just on our part and meet the approbation of all
Concerned.

We are, Sir, with great regard and Esteem,

On the back of the above letter the following is written :
From the late oflBcers of the Garrison at West Point, July
11, 1784.

West Point.

West Point, the seat of the United States Military Academy,
is situated on the Hudson River, 52 miles north of New York
City.

Its importance as a strategic point for the defense of the
Hudson river and the circumjacent country was early appreci-
ated. Accordingly it was carefully fortified at the opening of
the Revolution.

The establishment of a military training school dates back
to 1776, when a committee of the Continental Congress was
appointed **to prepare and bring in a plan of a military
Academy at the Army."

Washington called attention to the subject in 1793 and
again in 1796. The final act establishing such a school is
dated March 16, 1802.

The accompanying letter, written after the close of the war
and addressed presumably to the War office of the govern-
ment, plainly indicates that official promises were not scrupu-
lously observed, even by the fathers of the Republic.

LETTER OF LIEUT.-COL. EDW. ANTILL TO

New York, July 17th, 1784,.
Sir : Major Lloyd informs me you wished for an explana-
tion relative to some charges in my public account against
certain officers then belonging to the Regiment. I will take
up that of Captain McConnel for instance (the others are in
the same predicament). I advanced Captain McConnel for
the recruiting service at different times as per receipts 1104
dollars, together with twenty dollars as per memorandum
Book dated in Feb., 1777. The whole of these 1124 dollars
were given him from the time he received his recruiting in-
structions in 76 to March, 77 — In the beginning of March,

war, dated Baltimore, Feb. 24, 1777, in the following words :
"Sir, congress having received intelligence of the enemy's
being reinforced in New Jersey Very considerably it becomes
absolutely necessary both for the preservation of the army

the resolve of Congress on that head mclosed by Direction of
the Board of War with which they request you will instantly

them bring what Arms Blankets and clothes they have or can
by any means obtain and the deficiency will be supplied at

He spoke German fluently and was noted for his wit and humor. He achieved
some success in the legal profession. At the opening of the Revolution he be-
came a captain of a company of volunteers. This position, however, he held but
a short time, when he was assigned by Congress to the Board of War, of which
he was made Secretary, from June 13, 1776, to Dec, 1781. He was a member of
Congress in 1782-3. From 1789 to the time of his death he was a Federal Judge
in Pennsylvania.

Lieutenant-Colonel Edward Antill was an officer in the 2d
Canadian (known also as "Congress Own") regiment, from
the 22d of January, 1776, to the first of January, 1783. He
was captured during his time of service, but was exchanged

Thomas Posey was born on the Potomac river, in Fairfax
Co., Va., July 9, 1750, and died in Shawneetow, 111., March
19, 1818. His education was acquired in the common
schools. At the age of nineteen he removed to what is now
West Virginia.

As quarter-master in Colonel Andrew Lewis's command, he
participated in the defeat of the Indians at Point Pleasant,
October 10, 1774, during Dunmore's War. The following
year he was commissioned captain in the 7th Virginia Con-
tinental regiment, and was present at the defeat of Lord Dun-
more, July 8, 1776.

During the remainder of the war he served in New Jersey
with Daniel Morgan and Horatio Gates.

236 GLEANINGS OP VIRGINIA HISTORY.

The war having closed, he settled in Spottsylvania county,
Va., and was made colonel of the county militia. In 1793 he
was commissioned a brigadier-general and assigned to duty
under Wayne in the Northwest. He resigned Feb. 28, 1794,
and located in Kentucky, where he served a term in the State
Senate. He was finally made major-general and assigned to
the organization of state troops. Having removed to Louisi-
ana, he served, by appointment, as U. S. Senator in 1812-13.
Subsequently, he acted as governor of Indiana Territory to
the date of its admission as a state.

His life was active and productive, the legitimate results
of innate ability. In his sphere he was the equal of any
of his contemporaries.

NEWMAN FAMILY OF VIEGINIA.

The family name Newman is of the same origin as that
of Newcome — "stranger newly arrived." It was originally
spelled Nieuweman ; Latinized, Novus Homo. (See Patrony-
mica Britannica, by Mark Antony Lower, page 237.) The
original spelling would seem to indicate an Anglo-Saxon
origin.

Among the members of the family who came to Virginia
and left their impress upon the eariy history of the colony
were Robert, William, John, and Thomas Newman. They
were, doubtless, relatives of John Newman, grocer, a member
of the London Virginia Company in 1609, and in all prob-
ability came to Virginia at his suggestion in order to better
their fortunes. Their descendants are now scattered through-
out the South and West ; many of them are prominent in the
walks of social and business life,

Mrst. Robert Newman arrived in Virginia in the ship
" Furtherance," in 1618, aged 19 years. He was living in
Elizabeth City county in 1624. On May 11, 1635, he ob-
tained a patent for 450 acres of land, which he afterwards
assigned to Richard Bennett. (See William and Mary College
Quarterly, Vol. 9, page 139.) This is the earliest patent
granted to any one of the name of which the compiler has
record.

Robert Newman undoubtedly married and left, with other
children, two soris, William and John. William was living
in York county in 1698. (See William and Mary Quarterly,
Vol. 4, page 250.) It is believed that he married and was
the father of John, who in 1709 was " summoned to answer a

(237)

238 GLEANINGS OP VIRGINIA HISTORY.

presentment of the grand jury against him for absenting him-
self from Divine Servica" (York county records.)

Second. John Newman, second son of Robert, married
Ruth Taberer, daughter of Thomas, of Isle of Wight county.
The will of Thomas Taberer, dated Jan. 14, 1692, and proven
in 1699, refers to his **son" John Newman, and his grand-
children, Thomas and Isabella Newman, to whom he leaves
Basses' Choice. John Newman died about 1700; his will,
bearing date Dec. 11, 1695, was proven in Isle of Wight
county in 1700. In it he refers to his wife Ruth, and to his
two children as son Thomas and daughter Isabella.

Second. William Newman^ aged 35 years, arrived in 1622,
in the ship " Furtherance *' (Vol. 7, William and Mary Quar-
terly, page 218), and settled in Isle of Wight county, where,
on Aug. 26, 1643, he was granted a patent for 550 acres
of land, situated "Northerly towards the Sunken marsh,
Easterly upon a swamp, Southerly towards the lower Chip-

Vol. 9, page 144.)

In 1648, Sept. 25, George Codd confessed a judgment in
favor of William Newman for 500 lbs. of tobacco, with costs,
Ac, York county, Virginia.

In 1658 "William Newman, as security for Gyles Thurloe,
confesseth judgement to Capt. Gyles Brent for eighteen hun-
dred pounds of sweet-scented tobacco and caske, which is
ordered to be paid, with costs, &c.," York county, Virginia.

In 1662 William Newman served as a juror at an inquest
over the body of a woman " accidentally shot by the glance
of a ball intended for a wild beast." Whether he was Wil-
liam Sr. or William Jr., son of Robert, who was living in
York county in 1698, or what relation existed between the
two, the writer is not informed. (See William and Mary Col-
lege Quarterly, VoJ. 4, page 250.)

[The will of William Newman, Sr.; dated Jan. 20, 1669,
was proven in York county court, July 25, 1670, leaving his

issue, his wife having been a widow at their marriage, with
an only daughter Joan, who married Lawrence of Compton-
Chamberiin, in Wiltshire, England.

Third. John Newman, aged 24 years, emigrated to Virginia
in 1635 in the ship " Globe,'' and is believed to be the same
John for whose transportation Capt. William Pearce was
panted 50 acres of land the same year. (See presently.)

Fowrth, Thomas Newman, the brother of John, came to Virginia
in 1635 in the ship " Plaine Joan," aged 15 years. (See later.)

First John Newman, as we have seen, emigrated to Vir-
ginia in 1635, and settled in James City county, where on
Apr. 1, 1644, Henry Thompson assigned to him one hundred
and fifty acres of land, situated upon " Smith's Fort Creek,
joining the lands of John Buckmaster, which was patented to
the said Buckmaster, which patent was renewed to the said
John Newman " in 1644 ; here he appears to have resided for
about seven years, as between 1652 and 1677 he had acquired
in the Northern Neck by letters patent, grant, and deeds,
about 4000 acres of land, situated on both sides of Moratico
Creek, in the present counties of Lancaster and Richmond.
He resided near Tarplay's Point, then known as Moratico or
Newman's Neck. He married, probably, a daughter of Paul
Woodbridge (about 1655), in the then Rappahannock county.
Issue: three children of whom we have record. His wife
died before 1677, as she is not referred to in the will of her
husband, who died during that year. His will proven at
Tappahannock court house, Rappahannock county, shows
him to have been a man of wealth, and refers to his children
in the following order :

1. Alexander, " my oldest son," barely of age in 1677.

2. Samuel, a minor in 1677.

3. John, a minor in 1677.

Second Generation.

ander " of the Richmond county records, married Elizabeth

, who was, probably, a kinswoman of the Brocken-

broughs. He was a member of the House of Burgesses in
1694, from Richmond county, and but for his death at the
early age of 42, would probably have achieved much distinc-
tion. His will, proven in 1698, in Richmond county, is lost
with will book 1, but the records that have been preserved
show that he left his property to his cousin, Thomas Newman,
and to William Dunn ; that he was a wealthy man of much
local prominence ; and that he inherited his father's passion
for acquiring land. He left no issue.

Second. Samuel Newman, 2d of John and his wife, nee
Woodbridge, born about 1658, married , re-
ceived his portion of his father's estate in tobacco, the money
of those days. In 1687 he was granted 559 acres of land in
Henrico county, and in 1690, 292 acres in the same county.
The date of his marriage, the name of his wife, and the dates
of their death are unknown to the writer ; lack of time has
prevented a more thorough investigation of the records as to
him and his family ; it is, however, certain that of his chil-
dren there were the following sons :

Third, John Newman, the third son and youngest child
of John, the immigrant, and his wife, , nee Wood-
bridge, bom , was a minor in 1679, as shown by a deed

of his brother Alexander Newman to Paul Woodbridge, his
guardian; is not mentioned in the records of old Rappa-
hannock, Essex or Richmond counties after 1679 ; but the
records of Lancaster county show that the land acquired by
him under the will of his father was disposed of soon after he
attained his majority. He is believed to have settled in
Maryland, and to be the John Newman who was the pro-
genitor of the Maryland branch of the family.*

Third Generation.

First. Samuel Newman, 1st of Samuel, of John, the immi-
grant, settled in the western portion of Spottsylvania county,
and in 1748 he was administrator of the estate of his brother
Jonathan, who died a resident of Augusta county. (See

liber , Augusta county ; also. Liber 1, folios 100 and

220, Shenandoah county, Va.). In August, 1757, Samuel
obtained a patent for 210 acres of land in Augusta county ;
he appears to have removed to Frederick county, and after
the organization of Shenandoah he was a resident of said
county. (No further record.)

Second, Jonathan Newman, 2d of Samuel, of John the im-
migrant, born in Lower Virginia, settled in Augusta county,
where he married, , Mary . Issue, two children :

1. John.

2. Walter.

Jonathan Newman died before Feb. 20, 1748, and after the
settlement of his estate by his brother Samuel, his widow,
with her two minor children, removed to Frederick county,
now Shenandoah, where she married Mr. States, and where
she was living in 1779. The records of Shenandoah county
do not disclose any ftirther information concerning her or her
second husband.

*^ II. Thomas Newman.

Thomas Newman, bom in England about 1620, emigrated
to Virginia in the ship "Plaine Joan" in 1635, aged 15
years ; probably settled with his brother John in James City
county, Virginia, and moved with him to the Northern Neck.
His name, however, does not appear upon any record until
1677, when he made a deed to his son Thomas, conveying
one-half of his real and personal property to the latter, who
was about to be married. This deed, of record at Tappahan-
nock, Virginia, is attested by Philip Pendleton. ' The immi-
grant Thomas probably married a daughter of Henry Burdett,
Sr., whose will, proven in 1695, in Richmond county, is now
lost with Will Book 1 ; but the remaining records prove that
he was executor of, and a devisee under the will. He died
intestate, about the beginning of the year 1700, and his per-
sonal estate was appraised at 16,577 pounds of tobacco. He
probably had daughters ; the wives of Avery Nay lor, John
McMelion (McMillan?), and Frances, wife of John Wilson,
may have been among these. He certainly had but one son,
Thomas, bom probably before 1656, and after the removal
of his father to what is now Richmond county.

Second Generation.

* Thomas Newman, Jr., only son of Thomas the immigrant,
bom in Virginia, is frequently mentioned in the records
of Richmond county, and by will and descent acquired nearly

NEWMAN FAMILY OP VIRGINIA. 247

all the Newman property in the Northern Neck. He con-
veyed Moi^atico to John Tarplay in 1700, and the deed shows
that he lived in Littenboume (Littenboume parish), probably
on the place given him by his father, and recites that the
lands conveyed were given him by Capt. Alexander Newman,
in his last will and testament. As, at the time of the latter's
death, there were three Thomas Newmans in Richmond ,
county, to-wit : the immigrant, his son and grandson, Tarplay
instituted an inquiry, in 1711, to ascertain who was the
Thomas to whom Capt. Alexander Newman devised Moratico.
This inquiry is of record at Warsaw and contains the testi-
mony of Capt. Wm. Woodbridge, Wm. Fitzherbert, Dominick
Benneham, Mrs. Winnifred GriflBn, and George Glasscock.
The first testified that he had often heard Capt. Newman say
that " if he died without issue he would give the plantation
where he then lived to Thomas Newman, because it should
not go out of the name of Newman," and that he was " that
Thomas Newman who was reputed to have married the
daughter of Mr. Elias Wilson, deceased." Fitzherbert testi-
fied similarly, but changed the Captain's language so as to
make him declare that he would give the land to Thomas'
" to bear up the name of Newman," and identified him as
'' the son of Thomas Newman, who lived across Rappahannock
Creek." He died between 1704 and 1707, and left issue :

\ 1. Alexander, bom 1678.

2. George, 1 evidently twins, bom 1681, as both were minors

3. John, / in 1701 and of age in 1702.

4. Thomas, a minor in 1707.

Third Geneeation.

, First. Alexander Newman, 1st of Thomas, Jr., bought a
large tract of land in 1699, in Lancaster county, formerly
owned by John Newman, the immigrant, and by him devised
to his son John ; upon this he built a stone mill which is still
standing ; so says the clerk of the county Court. Alexander

248 GLEANINGS OP VIRGINIA HISTORY.

appears to have resided in Lancaster until about 1735, when,
as " Alexander Newman, of St. Mark's Parish," he leased a
tract of land in Orange county, on the south side of the
Rapidan, of Alexander Spottswood, " for three lives, himself
and his sons, Thomas and James." There is of record at
Warsaw a deed, dated 1737, from "Alexander Newman of
Orange County, Planter," to Landon Carter, conveying the
tract of land devised by Henry Burdett, the elder, to Thomas
Newman, and the court order showing the acknowledgment
of the deed recites that Alexander was the heir at law of
Thomas. Upon this tract Carter built his famous home,
Sabine Hall ; at the time of the sale it seems to have been
adversely held by JaneJThomas. Possibly the suit of Alex-
ander Newman vs. Humphrey Thomas, abated by the latter's
death in 1732, concerned this land.

Alexander Newman was a member of the grand jury of
Orange county in 1737, and is mentioned in several suits
there, the last as late as 1760. He undoubtedly lived in what
is now Culpeper county, and probably died soon after 1760.
Between 1740 and 1750 he was engaged in a law suit in
Richmond county with his wife Penelope, from whom he had
separated. She obtained, finally, a judgment against him for
maintenance and support; and Elias Wilson, evidently a
kinsman, acknowledged himself surety for the payment of the
money. The records disclose the names of three of his sons, viz :

1. Elias.

2. Thomas.

\ 3. James, all probably bom between 1705 and 1715.

the same year.

Jane Daniel, wife of George Quiesenberry and mother of the
two Mdma. John Newman, was the daughter of Vivien Daniel,
but is omitted in Hayden's list of Vivian's children ; unfortu-
nally no direct evidence is of record, but the relationship is
asserted by Jane's descendants, and is confirmed by the fact§
that Vivian Daniel was surety on the bond, given in 1783, by
George Quisenberry in Orange county for his intermarriage
with Jane Daniel, and that the will of Vivian's brother, John
Daniel, made in 1785, and proven in Louisa county, is at-
tested by Vivian Daniel, George Quisenberry, Jane Quisen-
berry and Margaret Daniel. It is also noted that Jane named
her first born Vivian, for her father, and her youngest Eliza-
beth, for her mother. See *' Memorials of the Quisenberry

Sixth Generation.

Eighth. James Newman, 8th and youngest child of Alex-
ander and Frances, nee Bourne, bom about 1784 ; is not men-
tioned in the will of his brother George, 1802, and is believed
to have died before his majority; unmarried. In 1798
** James, son of Fannie, of Orange," was apprenticed to learn
carpenter's trade, in Orange county.

Fipth Generation.

Second. Reuben Newman, 2d of Thomas, of Orange, and
Elizabeth, nee Morton, and grandson of Alexander, bom in
Orange county, about 1742 ; died 1825, unmarried. From
his will, dated Aug. 20, 1819, proven Aug. 27, 1826, recorded
in Liber 6, folio 271, at Orange Court House, we infer he was
what the world calls successful in business, as he left a large
estate to Henry Hill, alias Henry Newman, and his wife.

Henry Hill, alias Newman, settled in the South, perhaps
Mississippi, where he left a family of children. No further
record.

Third. Abner Newman, 3d of Thomas, of Orange, and
Elizabeth, nee Morton, and grandson of Alexander, bom in
Orange county in 1756 ; married Hester Mauzy, daughter
of Henry and Ann, nse Withers, of Fauquier county, son of
John and Hester, nee Foote, of StaflFord county ; son of Henry,
Sr., the emigrant, and his wife. Miss Conger, daughter of Dr.
Conger, of England. Henry Mauzy, Sr., a French Huguenot,
fled from France in 1685 : upon the revocation of the Edict
of Nantes, escaped to England, where he married, and where
his son Henry was bom, about 1690 ; emigrated to Virginia
between the year 1697 and 1700 ; settled in StaflFord county,
where he at once acquired about fifteen hundred acres of land.
(See Mauzy Records, by Wm. F. Boogher.) Abner Newman
lived in Culpeper, Fauquier and Shenandoah counties. He
was pensioned as a private soldier April 9, 1824, as a resident
of Shenandoah county, aged 68 years. (See rej)ort of Secre-

NEWMAN FAMILY OP VIRGINIA. 279

tary of War of June, 1834, Pension Establishment of the U. S.
for the State of Virginia, page 98.) Abner was sheriflF for
Shenandoah county. He appears to have removed fix)m
Fauquier about 1788, as in this year he records a deed of sale
for all his lands in the county. Of the children of Abner
Newman and Hester, nee Mauzy, but little is known; it is
believed, however, that with others, William, who married
Miss Tucker, in 1804, in Culpeper county; Alexander, who
married Peggie Douglass, in 1806, in Rockingham county,
and Abner, who married Eliza Comaga, in 1824, in Culpeper
county, were his sons. The dates of his death and that of his
wife and children are unknown to the writer. After 1824 he
probably removed to Rockingham county with his son Alex-
ander, where he spent the remainder of his life ; but owing to
the partial destruction of the records of this county during the
Civil War, no further mention has been found of him or his
children.

Fourth Generation.

Third. James Newman, 3d and youngest child of Alex-
ander, of Orange, son of Thomas, Jr., son of Thomas the

emigrant, bom between 1705 and 1715 ; married ; is

believed to have had at least three sons and a daughter :

1. Thomas, b,

2. Robert, b.
8. James, b.
4. Elizabeth, b.

Fifth Generation.

Fird. Thomas Newman, 1st of James, 3d of Alexander,
settled perhaps in Berkeley county, Va., as in 1778 he recorded
a deed at Martinsburg conveying certain lands to Elizabeth
Newman, who was either his mother or sister. He was exec-
utor of his brother Robert's will, proven Sept. 27, 1819, in
Hardy county, now West Virginia.

280 GLEANINGS OF VIBGINIA HISTO&T.

Second. Robert Newman, 2d of James, 3d of Alexander,

of Orange, bom ; married, 1789, Elizabeth Latham,

in Culpeper county. In January, 1816, he appears to have
been in Alleghany county, Maryland. On Sept. 27, 1819,
his will was proven in Hardy county. It was dated March
18, 1813, and is recorded in Liber 2 of Wills, folio 59. He
left his wife Elizabeth all estate during her widowhood. His
brother Thomas was executor and brother James one of the
witnesses. From the sales of his personal estate, recorded in
Liber 2, folio 305, he appears to have had two sons, Gadsby
and Edgar, the latter a minor in 1820, and a daughter Nancy,
also a minor.

Gadsby Newman, son of Robert and Elizabeth, nee Latham,
bom in Culpeper county ; settled with his parents in Hardy

partial destruction of the records of Prince William county
during the Civil War, no satisfactory information of his
descendants has been obtained.

Third. Thomas Newman, 3d of John and Eliza, nee Bur-
dett, of Richmond county, where he was bom ; is be-
lieved to have moved to York county, where he was clerk
of the courts and deputy sheriflF after the Revolution. He is
mentioned in the will of his brother George.

The Newman Genealogy is based upon facts in the posses-
sion of Mr. William B. Newman, of Talladega, Alabama,
taken from family and various county records, liber and folio,
as stated ; also upon researches made by the compiler at his
request. Mr. Newman intends preparing a genealogy of the
descendants of John and Thomas Newman, Englishmen, and
this sketch is inserted by his permission.

He will welcome any corrections, as well as new matter, and
is especially anxious that dates be given, where possible, with
as much biographical matter as can be had from the records,
family Bibles, and other credible sources of information.

NOTES OP HUGH THOMAS. 283

HISTORICAL AND GENEALOGICAL NOTES OF HUGH
THOMAS, OF WESTMORELAND CO., VA.

Hugh Thomas, of Westmoreland county, Va., was bom
about 1663-4 in Charles county, Maryland. His father Hugh
immigrated to the province of Maryland in the spring of
1661, as will appear from a demand made on the Lord Pro-
prietor for lands by Robert Slye, June 18, 1661, for transport-
ing the said Hugh Thomas. Liber 4, folio 555, Land oflBce
of Maryland.

April 19, 1666, Hugh Thomas, Sr., had assigned and
patented to him 600 acres of land, called Rich Hill, on the
west side of the Wicomico river, in Charles county, Md. See
rent roll for said county, liber 1, folio 37, Land office, Md.;
and on June 20, 1675, a patent for 83 acres, called Thomas's
Addition to Rich Hill; April 14, 1681, 100 acres, called
Fortune.

In Nov., 1681, Hugh Thomas was a member of the grand
jury for Charles county, liber 1-8, folio 174.

About 1662-3 he married Ann in Charles county ;

issue, three sons of whorn we have record ; Hugh bom about
1663 ; John bom 1664-5 ; and James about 1666.

On Nov. 13, 1684, Hugh Thomas, Sr., sold his Rich Hill
plantation to John Harrison, Gentleman, of Charles county ;
consideration, 13,000 lbs. of Merchantable tobacco, his wife
Ann joining in this deed, liber L, No. 1, folio 53, Charles
county record. At this date his son John is possessed by
deed of gift from his father of the 100 acres called Fortune ;
See Rent roll No. 2, folio 328 for said county.

Hugh Thomas died in 1688 in Charles county. See letters
Testamentary, Provincial, Annapolis, Md.

His son, Hugh, Jr., the subject of this notice, was bom as
above stated, about 1663, and settled early in life in Cople
Parish, Westmoreland county, Va., where he married Ann
, and where he died in July, 1718, leaving his widow

284 GLBANINOS OF VIBQINIA HISTORY.

Ann and two minor sons, Hugh and Daniel surviving. His
will is dated Nov. 6, 1717 ; proven July 30, 1718 ; wife Ann,
executrix, filed her inventory Sept. 8, 1718. In Sept., 1719,
Mrs. Ann Thomas died intestate, as on Sept. 30, 1719, a com-
mission was appointed to appraise her estate with her brother-
in-law, John Thomas, as administrator. He reported the
amount of appraisement to the court Dec. 16, 1719, and was
appointed guardian of his two nephews, Hugh and Daniel,
as per the will of their father.

Third Generation.

Mrst Hugh Thomas, 1st of Hugh, Gentleman, of West-
moreland county, Va., and Ann his wife, was bom about
1705, in Cople Parish, where he married about 1730-5, Mary
Carr, daughter of William. See will of William Carr, liber 3,
folio 125, proven 1702, Westmoreland county record. Re-
ferring to his two infant children, Joseph and Mary, also a
deed of gift of 100 acres of land by Joseph Carr for love and
affection to his sister Mary, now wife of Hugh Thomas, dated
June 12, 1735. See also deed to Hugh and Daniel Thomas
for love and affection from their uncle James, dated June 30,
1735, in which they are called his nephews.

In 1744 Hugh Thomas and Mary, his wife, deeded the 100
acres received by gift from Joseph Carr to Daniel Tibbs ; con-
sideration, 9,000 lbs. of Merchantable tobacco, and 8 £ of Va.
money. Mary Thomas, nee Carr, appears to have died about
1745-50, as her name does not occur in any deeds after 1744.
Her husband, Hugh Thomas No. 3, remained a resident free-
holder in Westmoreland county until 1764, this being the
date of his last deed of record in that county. After this he
settled with his uncle John and brother Daniel in Prince
William county, where he is believed to have died ; but owing
to the partial destruction of the records of Prince William,
there being neither will nor intestate to be found, the date of
his death and the names of his children have not been
ascertained.

NOTES OF HUGH THOMAS. 285

Second. Daniel Thomas, 2d and youngest child of Hugh,

Jr., and Ann, his wife, of Westmoreland county, bom about

1706-7, married, in Westmoreland county, his first cousin,

Catherine Thomas, daughter of his uncle James. See will of

"^Iames Thomas.

March 11, 1728, he and his brother Hugh secured a warrant
for 300 acres of land in StaflFord county, and Nov. 16, 1731,
for 667 acres in Prince William. These lands were subse-
quently divided between the brothers by order of court.

All their lands were, subsequent to 1742, in Fairfax county.
As evidence that Daniel had settled in that county, it is
shown by the records that as a free-holder he voted in 1744
for Capt. Lawrence Washington and Capt. Lewis EUzey for
the House of Burgesses. He continued to reside in this
county up to 1767, his name appearing to that date as a suc-
cessful plaintiff in a number of suits at law.

Early in 1757 he filed a suit in equity against his uncle
John and wife Elizabeth; but when the suit was called in
the autumn of the same year, the attorney for the defense re-
ported both defendants as dead.

On March 12, 1757, Daniel Thomas sold to William Bayly,
of Fairfax county, 333^ acres of land, his half of the 667
granted Nov. 16, 1731, to him and his brother Hugh. Liber
A, folio 149, Fairfax county record.

April 15, 1763, account book of Fairfax county : An agree-
ment between Daniel Thomas and William Bayly. This is
the last entry of said Daniel Thomas in Fairfax county. He
is believed to have removed to Prince William county, where
again the loss of records prevents positive information of him
or his descendants. The will of his wife's father, James,
proven in 1742 in Westmoreland county, makes positive
reference to his grandson, William Thomas, the son of his
daughter Catherine. This William appears later to have
figured in Prince William and Orange counties.

Second Generation.

Second. John Thomas, 2d of Hugh of Charles county, Md.,
and Ann, his wife, bom about 1664-5, was a planter. He
received by deeds of gift fix)m his father 100 acres of land
called Fortune, in Charles county, Md., where he doubtless
married his first wife .

After the death of his parents in Md., and prior to 1717, he
settled in Westmoreland county, Va., where he probably mar-
ried Elizabeth, daughter of Nicholas Spencer, about 1718, as
her brother John Spencer records a deed of gift for love and
affection in 1718 to 60 acres of land with house and orchard,
etc., to John Thomas and wife Elizabeth. It appears from
the records that after settling up the estate of his brother
Hugh as administrator de bonis non, and that of his widow Ann
in 1719, he removed to that part of Stafford county, which after
1730 was Prince William, and after 1742 to Fairfax county,
with his two wards, Hugh and Daniel Thomas, nephews, and
sons of his brother Hugh. There he was the owner of several
tracts of land. The last mention of him is in 1755 in the
case of the suit by his nephew Daniel at Fairfax Court House
previously referred to.

Third. James Thomas, 3d of Hugh, of Charles county,
Md., and Ann, hi&wife, bom about 1666-7; settled early in
life in Westmoreland county, Va., where, after 1700, he mar-
ried Sarah . From 1728 until his death in 1742 he

was surveyor for Lord Fairfax and for the county of West-
moreland. He was possessed of a large landed estate : Sept.
17, 1705, a northern Neck deed for 729 acres in Richmond
county ; March 8, 1727, 1,728 acres in Stafford county ; Oct.
30, 1728, 1,450 acres in Stafford county ; Aug. 6, 1781, 1,504
acres in Prince William county. June 20, 1735, he records a
deed of gift to his two nephews, Hugh and Daniel Thomas, ou
the Yeocomac river, in the parish of Cople, county of West-
moreland. He died November, 1742 ; his will, bearing date
Feb. 10, 1742, was proven Dec. 1, 1742. In which he names his

children in the following order : Sons — James, George, John ;
daughters — Winnifred Thomas, Elizabeth Thomas; his grand-
son William Thomas, the son of his daughter Catherine, wife
of Daniel Thomas; daughter Hannah Thomas, daughter
Sarah Jennings, to whom he leaves his lands, etc., and appoints
his son John executor and residuary legatee, he to provide for
his mother Sarah during the remainder of her life.

Third Gbnbration.

Mrd. James Thomas, 1st of James and Sarah, bom in
Westmoreland county, died in 1743. His estate personal was
appraised at £12 11 shillings and 6 pence ; settled in open
court 1743. (See Court Docket, Westmoreland county.) In
'this account neither wife nor children are referred to.

Second. George Thomas, son of James and Sarah, bom in

Westmoreland county; married Eleanor ; died in

Prince William county January, 1781. His will, bearing
date Jan. 1st, 1781, was proven Feb. 5, 1781. In it reference
is made to three sisters : Elizabeth Latheram, Ann Winnifred,
and Nancy Thomas, to whom he left legacies. To his wife
Eleanor he bequeathed the bulk of his estate and appointed
her executrix. (Liber G, folio 107, Prince William record.)
The inventory of his estate was reported to the court at
£13,985 10 shillings sterling money. From the verbiage
of his will no information can be gathered as to his children.

Third, John Thomas, son of James, of Cople Parish, West-
moreland county, where he was born, received, by the will
of his fetther, a large tract of land in Prince William county,
known as the Sugar Lands. He also purchased several tracts,
one from John Foster and wife in Prince William county ;
consideration £66(T Va. money. (Liber Z, folio 166.)

After 1 742, the date of the formation of Fairfax county
from Prince William, he became a freeholder of Fairfax
<x>unty. On March 27, 1750, he recorded a deed for several

288 GLEANINGS OF VIRGINIA HISTOBY.

negroes in favor of his mother Sarah ; consideration, £60 Vir-
ginia money. (Liber C, folio 6.) This is the last entry we
find in Fairfax county of either John Thomas or his mother.

Addendum. — Hugh Thomas, of Frederick county, Md.,
from whom descended Governor Francis Thomas, deceased,
was in no wise, as has been claimed, a relative of Hugh
Thomas, gentleman, of Westmoreland county, Va.

Governor Francis Thomas, deceased, was a descendant of a
Hugh Thomas who was bom in Pennsylvania, and who about
1733 settled in Prince George (later Frederick) county, Md.

The descendants of Hugh Thomas, of Frederick county, Md.,
will be treated in a similar volume devoted to Maryland.

HISTORICAL AND GENEALOGICAL NOTES OF WIL-
LIAM CRAIG, OF AUGUSTA COUNTY, VIRGINU,
AND HIS DESCENDANTS.

According to a brief memoir of his family left by William
Craig, of Mt. Meridian, Va., grandson and namesake of the
immigrant, William Craig and Jean his wife, landed in
America from the north of Ireland in the year 1721-22 with
three sons, Robert, James and John. He first settled in Penn-
sylvania in what is now either Lancaster or Chester county,
and thence removed with his family to Augusta county, Va.

The date of his removal is not definitely known. Robert,
the eldest son, seems to have been the first of the family to
leave Pennsylvania. His name appears in Captain John
Smith's company of militia in Augusta in the year 1742.
(See January number, 1901, Virginia Magazine of History &
Biography.) The baptismal register of the Rev. John Craig,
now in the library of Gen. John E. Roller, of Harrisonburg,
Va., shows that John, son of Robert Craig, was baptized
March 15, 1741, so that it may be fairly inferred that he re-
moved to Augusta in the summer or fall of 1740. He will
be mentioned again in the course of this sketch.

William Craig, the immigrant, and the rest of his family,
are believed to have removed from Pennsylvania to Virginia
in the year 1744. This is inferred from the fact that Sarah,
daughter of James, second son of William, was bom, accord-
ing to Bible record, Feb. 1, 1743, and baptized by the Rev.
John Craig, Oct. 21, 1744. It would seem that her baptism
would have occurred at an earlier period had her father been
in Augusta much prior to this date. In addition to this,
James Craig did not take title to lands until Feb. 10, 1745,
when Wm. Thompson conveyed to him 305 acres of land
"lying in Augusta county, Va., on the northwest side of
Middle River near Shenandoe." This deed is recorded in
liber 1, page 30, of the Augusta county land records.

NOTES OF WILLIAM CRAIQ. 293

From these facts the inference may be drawn that Wm.
Craig, his wife Jean, and his two sons, James and John, re-
moved from their home in Pennsylvania to Augusta county,
Va., in the spring or summer of 1744.

The land records at Richmond, Orange and Staunton, do
not show any conveyances to Wm. Craig, yet by his will
dated Feb. 21, 1756, and recorded at Staunton, Nov. 26,
1759, he devises two-fifths of his landed estate to his " dearly
beloved wife Janet (diminutive for Jean), to do with as she
chooses," and one-fifth of the remainder to each of his sons,
Robert, James and John. Evidently his lands had been ac-
quired by purchase and his deeds were not recorded, which
was quite a common practice in the early settlement of the
Valley.

But little is known of his life beyond the fact that he was a
Scotch-Irish Covenanter Presbyterian. The tradition among
his descendants is that he and his family aided in building
the old Stone Church in Augusta, and for generations his
posterity have been among the most devoted adherents of that
historic congregation. He was bom between the years 1685
and 1690, judging from the date of James's birth, which was
in 1714-15. His wife Jean (or Janet) was evidently still liv-
ing in 1759, but nothing is known of her further history nor
of the date of her death. She was, beyond question, of the
same race from which h6 sprung, and was doubtless a worthy
helpmate of the man who was among the pioneer Scotch emi-
grants to America.

As to the children of William and Janet, his wife, and their
descendants, full information is not in the possession of the
writer, but enough is known to form the basis of future
research.

1. The history of Robert and his descendants is almost
entirely unknown to the other branches descending from Wil-
liam and Janet Craig. It was long believed that he had re-
moved from Augusta county to the Holston river country
about the year 1765, when a large number of persons went

294 GLEANINGS OP VIRGINIA HISTORY.

from Augusta to that section. There are many Craigs in that
portion of Virginia, among whom Robert is a common bap-
tismal name, and Craig county is named for a member of this
family. But the will of a Robert Craig, who died in 1788,
has recently been discovered at Staunton, and the description
of his lands indicates that he lived in the same general neigh-
borhood where John and James resided. He names his sons
John and Robert, and daughters Ann and Rebecca. The will
indicates that there were other sons and daughters, but he
does not name them.

It is now believed that this Robert was the eldest son
of William the immigrant, but nothing is definitely known
of his descendants. There are Craigs living in various coun-
ties of West Virginia who trace their ancestry to Augusta
county in an uncertain way, and it is highly probable that
this branch are descendants of Robert, eldest son of William
the immigrant.

2. James, second son of William and Janet, was bom in
the latter part of 1714, or in 1715, probably the latter year,
in the north of Ireland, and came as a mere boy with his
parents to America in 1721-2. His Bible is now in the
possession of the family of the late Rev. Dr. J. N. Craig,
of Atlanta, Ga. The family record states that James Craig
died Feb. 7, 1791, in his 76th year,' and according to family
tradition his death resulted from an accident at his mill on
South river. He married Mary Laird, who died Feb. 20,
1785, in her 70th year. Her family were also among the
pioneer settlers of Augusta.

As previously stated, James Craig acquired his first lands on
Middle river, opposite the present village of Mount Meridian,
and there he probably resided for some years. At a later
period he removed to a tract of land on South river which he
had acquired, and resided there until his death. A portion
of this tract is now owned by Charles S. Patterson, his great-
grandson, who lives where his ancestor died.

NOTES OP WILLIAM CBAIG. 295

James Craig led a busy life among his pioneer Scotch-Irish
neighbors. He built, at an early date, the flouring and saw-
mill on South river, in which he finally met with the accident
that caused his death. Some of his account books have been
preserved, and the entries therein indicate that none of the
business sagacity of his race was lacking in him. He acquired
a large landed estate, by patent and purchase, lying in the
forks of Middle and North rivers, on South river, and between
Middle river and the last named stream.

He appears, from the courts-martial record now in the office
of the Hustings court clerk of Staunton, to have been a private
militiaman in Captain John Givens' company of militia dur-
ing the entire period of the Revolutionary War. But he was
far beyond military age when the Revolution began, and is
not believed to have seen active service to any extent, if at all.
His sons and daughters were given the best educations obtain-
able in Augusta at that period, and his memory is preserved
among his great-grandchildren who still survive as a man
of strong convictions as to the right or wrong of things and
uncompromising in his opinions when formed with reference
to any subject.

His children were :

1. Sarah, bom Feb. 1, 1743, probably in Pennsylvania.
Married, first, to Mr. Thorpe, of Augusta, and second to James
Ely, having one son by each marriage. She removed to Ken-
tucky shortly after her second marriage and settled in Lincoln
county. Some of her descendants live in the vicinity of
Frankfort, among them being Dr. James Ely, a prominent
physician of that place.

A daughter of Jas. Ely and Sarah Craig, his wife, named
Chloe, married her cousin, Harry Cowan, and had two sons,
one of whom was named John. He was a graduate of Centre
. College, a lawyer by profession, a member of the Kentucky
legislature, colonel of the 19th Kentucky volunteers (Union)
in the Civil War, and was distinguished for gallantry. His
first wife was Carrie Anderson, granddaughter of Governor

296 aLBANINGS OF VIRGINIA HISTORY.

Owsley, of Kentucky, and his second wife was Mra Davis ;
both dead ; no issue.

The youngest son of Harry Cowan and Chloe Ely, his wife,
is Dr. George Cowan, of Danville, Ky. He married, first, his
cousin, Letitia Craig, who died young, leaving one son. Dr.
Harry J. Cowan, of Danville, Ky., who was one of the finest
surgeons and physicians of his state. He died in 1900, at the
untimely age of 38, universally regretted by all who knew
his worth as a man and skill in his chosen profession.

2. James, bom July 23, 1746 ; married Jean Stuart, of
Augusta. His will was probated June 22, 1807, at Staunton,
and in it he names his wife, Jean, and the following children :
John, James, Samuel, George, William, Elijah, Robert, Sarah,
Betsy, Agnes, Jane and Mary, wife* of John McQill. This
James Craig, along with his brother William, inherited that
portion of their father's estate which lay between the forks of
Middle and North Rivers. He lived on the northwest side of
the former stream, a short distance below Mount Meridian.
Comparatively little is known at this time of his descendants,
but most of them are believed to have gone west.

John, the eldest son, died in 1840 near Weyer's Cave,
Augusta county, Va. If he left issue they are unknown to
the writer.

Samuel, the third son of James, resided for many years at
Craigville, in the western part of Augusta, and his descend-
ants are still in that vicinity.

William, his fifth son, is believed to have married in
Augusta, Elizabeth Mills, in 1804, and to have removed to
Kentucky, where his descendants are probably to be found.

Elijah, the sixth son, removed to Richmond Virginia, and
his descendants reside in that city and Manchester, Virginia.

Sarah married John C. Hamilton, of Christian's Creek, and
the will of Jean Craig, nee Stuart, wife of this second James,
which was probated in Augusta county, Va., January 27,
1817, refers to her daughter, Nancy Hamilton. This daugh-
ter is not specifically named in the will of her father, and it is

NOTES OF WILLIAM CRAIO. 297

probable that one of the daughters bore a double name, which
was not mentioned by him in his will. Andrew Hamilton,
of Christian's Creek, married this Nancy Craig, who was, be-
yond question, the daughter of James and Jean Stuart Craig.
These Hamiltons were brothers and grandsons of the Rev.
John Craig, the Pioneer Presbyterian minister of Augusta.

3. Samuel, bom June 26, 1746, removed to Kentucky in
1778 or 1779, and acquired a large tract of land in the Hang-
ing Fork of Dicks River, in Lincoln county. The name of
his wife is not known to the writer. He had, among other
children, a son named Samuel, who married Miss Gaines,
daughter of Richard Gaines, of Lincoln county, Va., and a
daughter who married a Masterson. Samuel Craig and his
wife. Miss Gaines, had a large family of children, among
them being Dr. John Craig, the most celebrated physician of
his day in central Kentucky, and Richard Gaines Craig, a
captain in the Mexican War. Samuel Craig, Sr., died Sept.
26, 1795.

4. John, bom Nov. 21, 1747, and died on his 25th birthday,
Nov. 21, 1772 ; unmarried.

5. Oeorgcy was bom Jan. 4, 1749, and died Nov. 26, 1801.
He married, Dec. 16, 1790, Elizabeth Evans, of Augusta,
who died April 29, 1801. George inherited the home place
of his father on South River, directly opposite the railroad
station known as Harriston, on the Norfolk & Western Rail-
road. The children of George Craig and Elizabeth Evans,
his wife, who reached maturity were :

(a) James, who married a Miss Crawford, of Augusta, and
removed to Missouri early in the nineteenth century. Three
of his sous served as soldiers in the Confederate Army.

(b) Mary, married John A. Patterson, of Augusta, who was
long a member of the county court of that county under the
old system. Among their children are Messrs. Chas. S. Pat-
terson, who married Miss Hopkins, of Rockingham, and re-
sides at the old homestead of James Craig, Sr.; James A. Pat-
terson, who married Miss Poague, sister of Mrs. Gen. James

(c) Margaret, who married Samuel Patterson and lived a
long and honored life in Augusta. Among her children were
the late Samuel Patterson, of Fisherville, John A. Patterson,
who resides in New Hope, Va., and Wm. Patterson, who was
one of the most successful and prosperous business men of
Augusta.

(d) George, youngest child of George Craig and Elizabeth
Evans, his wife, was bom April 29, 1801, at the old home-
stead of James Craig, senior, and died in Pocahontas county,
West Virginia, Oct. 9, 1846. He married, in 1824, Matilda
Guthrie, and had issue as follows :

(1) Margaret Ann, married Robert I. Crawford, and lived
for many years in Louisville, Ky., where she died March 19,
1892, leaving issue as follows : George M., Newton G., Hugh
Brown Craig, and Rev. Alexander W. Crawford.

(2) Caroline Elizabeth, married Mr. John W. Warwick,
of Pocahontas county, West Virginia. Issue.

(3) John Newton Craig, a Presbyterian minister and Doctor
of Divinity, chaplain in thp Confederate army, and for many
years secretary of the home mission work of the Southern
Presbyterian Church. He spent the last years of his life in
Atlanta, Ga., and died suddenly in the month of October,
1900, while addressing the Virginia Synod at Newport News,
Va., in reference to the work under his charge. He married
Miss Lydia Brevard Harris, of Cabarrus county, N. C. Her
great-grandfather was Col. Robert Harris, a signer of the
Mecklenburg Declaration of Independence, who lost an arm
at Guilford Court House. Issue, who live in Atlanta, Ga.

(4) Hugh Brown Craig was born in 1837, and graduated
from Washington College in 1858. He served as adjutant
of Edgar's 26th Virginia Battalion in the Civil War. His
command was placed on Gen. Lee's extreme right at the

NOTES OP WILLIAM CBAIG. 299

battle of Cold Harbor, June 3, 1864. In the assault made
that day upon Gen. Lee, this portion of his line was tempo-
rarily broken and Adjutant Craig was killed with the battalion
colors in his hand while rallying the men, the color guard
having all been killed or wounded. He is buried at old
Tinkling Spring Church, in Augusta.

6. William, was bom Jan. 8, 1750, and died Sept. 8, 1829.
He married, in 1778, Jean Anderson, daughter of John An-
derson, who was among the first settlers of Augusta and a
member of the first county court upon the organization of that
county in 1745. John Anderson was also one of the first
elders of the old Stone Church. Jean was bom in 1744, and
was baptized April 29th of that year by the Rev. John Craig,
and died June 9, 1811. This William Craig, who preserved
the record of his family mentioned previously, was a man
of much solid worth and great integrity of character. He did
not seek public position, although well qualified by education
to take a leading part in the affairs of his county. He inher-
ited one-half of his father's estate, which lay between the
junction of Middle and North rivers, and his home was on the
former stream, directly opposite the present village of Mount
Meridian. A portion of his estate has been owned in more
recent years by the late Robert S. Hamsberger. The records
of the courts-martial of Augusta, previously referred to, show
that William Craig served during the War of the Revolution
as a private militiaman from 1778 to 1781, in the company
of Captain John Givens, who lived on Middle river imme-
diately adjoining his home. This company saw active service
during the Revolution, especially in the year 1781, when it
was marched to lower Virginia, and was in the battle of
Jamestown. The courts-martial record referred to also shows
that Captain Givens* company was ordered to rendezvous
September 20, 1781, under Lieutenant-Colonel Samuel Vance,
of Augusta. Palmer's Calendar of Virginia State Papers^
volume 1, page 514, shows that Colonel Vance (incorrectly
spelled Varn) was, on October 1, 1781, encamped four miles

below Williamsburg, in lower Virginia. This command was
then on its way to Yorktown, in the siege of which it par-
ticipated.

George and James, Jr., brothers of William, were also sol-
diers in the same company, and it is fair to assume that all
of them, being of military age, saw full service in the company
to which they belonged.

Jean Anderson, the wife of William Craig, was the widow
Allen when she married him, her first husband, Lieutenant
Hugh Allen, having been killed in the Indian battle of Point
Pleasant in 1774. By her first marriage she had three sons,
John, William and Hugh Allen, who removed to Kentucky
in 1784 with their kinspeople, the Trimbles and others, and
their d^cendants are numerous in that State to this day.

The children of William Craig and Jean Anderson were
(four):

(1) Jean, born April 17, 1779, and died June 6, 1850. She
married, June 25, 1799, James Patterson, of South River, born

Rockingham counties, Virginia, while some are to be found
in the West.

(2) James, bom April 17, 1781 ; died March 27, 1863 ;
married, first, his cousin, Susan Bell, daughter of Major Wm.
Bell, of Augusta. One child of this marriage reached matur-
ity, the late Jos. Davis Craig, of Mount Meridian, who was a
member of the county court of Augusta under the old system,
and later a member of the Virginia House of Delegates; His
wife was Elizabeth Walker, daughter of Alexander Walker,

James Craig, like his father, had no fondness for public life,
although in politics he was an uncompromising Whig. He
served for many years as an elder of the Old Stone Church,
which is situated about seven miles from his residence. His
beautiful estate lay directly in the forks of Middle and North
rivers, and his home was always the seat of gracious hospital-

304 GLEANINGS OF VIRGINIA HISTORY,

ity. He lived a long and honored life, and died with the
rogrot of all who knew him, especially the poor, to whom he
had always given freely of the bounty with which the Lord
had blessed him. He is buried in the old cemetery of the
Old Stone Church with the two women who called him
husband.

James G. Laird, her cousin, who was born Nov. 1, 1781, auJ
died July 28, 1857. They are both buried in the cemetery at
C'ross Keys, Virginia.

James G. Laird was the son of David Laird and Margaret
Craig, who is believed to have been the daughter of Robeil
Craig. She wa^ baptized April 7, 1745, by the Kev. John
Craig. If this assumption is correct, the descendants of James
G. Laird and Sarah Craig, his wife, are doubly descended
from Wm. Craig, the immigrant, and Jean, his wife. David
Laird was a captain of one of the first companies of regulars
organized in Augusta for service in the Revolution. He was
a captain of militia in 1777, and was also at Point Pleasant
as a lieutenant in 1774. The relationship between the Mount
Meridian Craigs and James, who married Sarah Craig, has
always been recognized by the two families, but the degree
of kinship is not now known.

James G. and Sarah Craig Laird had two children, both
daughters : Sarah, who married Mr. Thurmond, and died in
Harrisonburg some years ago, and Margaret, who married
Mr. Andrew Irick.

James G. Laird lived and died about two and one-half miles
from Keezletown, near the foot of Laird's Knob, which takes
its name from his family.

(4) Margaret, daughter of William and Jean (Anderson)
Craig, born Dec. 26, 1785, and died Feb. 27, 1856, was the
last wife of James Bell, of Augusta, who descended from one
of the old pioneer families of that county. He was for many
years the senior presiding justice of the Augusta county court.

and one of the most active and enterprising men in that sec-
tion. He was bom in 1772 and died in 1856, and is buried
along with his wife in the old cemetery of the old Stone
Church. Their children were: John J., who married and
died without issue ; David S., who married Miss McCue, and
had issue; J. Wayt, who married, first, Sarah, daughter of
Col. James Crawford, of Augusta, and had issue ; and second,
her sister Eliza, who died without issue ; Henderson M., of
Staunton, a lawyer and member of the Virginia House of
Delegates, married Miss Kinney and had issue; Jane, who

Margaret, who married Frank M. Young, of Staunton, and
had issue. David S. Bell, son of James and Margaret, was

Issue.

7. Jfary, daughter of James and Mary Laird Craig, was
bom May 10, 1752, and died Jan. 16, 1778. She married
William Anderson, of Augusta, who is believed to have been
the son of John, father of Jean, who married William Craig,
brother of Mary. James Craig, the elder, in his will, probated
at Staunton in 1791, refers to the heirs of his daughter Mary,
but does not name them. William Anderson was a captain
in the War of the Revolution and removed to Kentucky in
1784, where his descendants are doubtless to be foimd.

8. Agnes, youngest child of James and Mary Laird Craig,
was born in Augusta, April 10, 1754. She married James
Anderson, brother of Jean and William referred to, and re-
moved to South Carolina, settling in what is now Anderson
county. James Anderson served as a captain in the Revolu-
tion, and the following children were bom to them : Robert,
removed to Mississippi and died there ; George, who went to
Missouri and afterwards to Texas, leaving seven sons and two
daughters ; James, who was accidentally killed in Alabama,
leaving a family ; Dr. William Anderson, who lived and died
at the old Anderson homestead in South Carolina in 1853,

aged 63 years; Mary, who married James Watson, leaving
issue ; Sarah, married Wm. Orr, of South Carolina, and left
issue ; Anne, married James Orr, of South Carolina, and left
issue ; Jane, married Mr. McEensie, and upon the death of
her husband removed to Mississippi, issue; Ann married
John James Mathews, both dead, no issue living ; Elizabeth,
the youngest child of James and Agnes Craig Anderson, mar-
ried Saxon Anderson, not related to her. They removed to
Alabama and have issue living in that state.

Captain James Anderson was baptized by the Rev. John
Craig at the old Stone Church in Augusta, March 6, 1748,
and died in South Carolina, Sept. 9, 1813. His wife Agnes
died in the same state in 1841-42, aged about 88 years. She
is buried in the family graveyard on the estate of Dr. Wm.
Anderson. Her husband is buried in the old Carmel Church
graveyard. The descendants of Agnes Craig and James
Anderson are numerous throughout the South, and are
highly respectable.

3. John, youngest son of William Craig, the immigrant,
was probably bom in 1717 or 1718, and came to America
with his parents as a mere child. He resided in the same
neighborhood with his brothers, Robert and James, until
1775, when he removed to Kentucky.

The journal of the Virginia Convention of 1776 contains a
petition from him stating that he had removed from Augusta
county, Va., to the western country in the previous year with
a drove of cattle, intending to settle there. JJe located in
Lincoln county, Ky., and died there in 1862, describing him-
self in his will as being very old and infirm. The name of
his wife is not known, but she is believed to have been either
an Allen or an Anderson. The baptismal register of the Rev.
John Craig previously referred to shows that William Craig,
son of John, was baptized Aug. 10, 1746, and James, son of
John, was baptized Jan. 24, 1748. He had other children
than these, but their names do not appear upon the register
in question, which only covers the period between 1740 and

NOTES OP WILLIAM CRAIG. 307

1749. William is said to have been the eldest son, and was
the magistrate of that name who sat in the first court ever
held in Kentucky at Harrodsburg, in the year 1781. He is
believed by his relatives to have been killed in a duel near
Danville in the year 1788. James, the second son, is de-
scribed in a decision of the court of appeals of Kentucky as
having been an efScient soldier and a capable and energetic
officer, but whether this service was rendered during the
Revolution or in the Indian wars following is unknown.

Mary, daughter of John, married Col. John Cowan, one of
the most intelligent of the early pioneers of Kentucky.

John, the youngest son of John, was bom in Augusta in
1756. He married there Elizabeth Beard, daughter of Edward
Beard, whose wife was. a descendant of William Bell, the pro-
genitor of the Stone Church Bells of Augusta. John did not
remove to Kentucky with his father and older brothers, but
remained in Augusta until 1790. One of his daughters mar-
ried Mr. Welch. His son William was born in Augusta in
1786, and was a student at the old Liberty Hall Academy at
Lexington, Va., in 1804-6, a student at Transylvania Uni-
versity in 1808-10, and studied medicine in Philadelphia in
1810-12 ; he was a surgeon in the War of 1812 in the regular
army, a member of the legislature of Kentucky in 1814-15,
an elder in the Presbyterian Church, president of the Danville
branch of the bank of Kentucky, a large farmer and a fine
physician. One of his daughters married Hon. Thomas M.
Green, of Danville, Ky., author of Historic Families of Ken-
lucky, etc., and a son is the Rev. Dr. Willis Green Craig, now
President of the McCormick Theological Seminary of Chicago.

HISTORICAL AND GENEALOGICAL NOTES OF JOHN
ANDERSON AND HIS DESCENDANTS, OF
AUGUSTA COUNTY, VIRGINIA. - ^

Seven or eight heads of families who bore the name of An-
derson were among the earliest settlers of Augusta counly,
Virginia. Whether related to each other in any degree is not
definitely known, but four of them, whose Christian names
were John, George, William and James, settled in the Stone
Church neighborhood and are believed to have been brothers.
The other Andersons referred to settled on Borden's grant, in
what is now Rockbridge county, and are not believed to have
been related to those who located on or near Middle river, in
Augusta county. ,

The Anderson who is the subject of this sketch was named
John. The Christian name of his wife was Jean, but her sur-
name is unknown. In the year 1738 William Beverly, by
deed dated June 5th, conveyed to John Anderson 748 acres
of land, which is believed to have been his home farm upon
which he lived and died. This land is located on Middle
river, at the crossing of that stream by the Valley turnpike
and the Valley railroad, and that portion of his estate where
he resided is now the property of Andrew Bowling, Esq.

John Anderson was of Scotch-Irish descent, and so, doubt-
less, was his wife. He probably came to Virginia from
Pennsylvania with the first wave of Scotch-Irish immigration
which followed in the wake of John Lewis, the pioneer settler
of Augusta county. Few of the details of his life are known.
In 1742 he was a soldier in Captain John Smith's company
of militia in Augusta county, and in 1756 his name appears
as a soldier in Captain Christian's company of militia. ,When
Augusta county was created in 1746 he was appointed one
of the first magistrates who composed the county court In
1772 John Poague conveyed 27 acres of land upon which the
. old Stone Church stands to the Rev. John Craig and the

NOTBS OF JOHN ANDERSON. 309

session of that church. In this deed John Anderson is named
next after Parson Craig, from which it may be fairly inferred
that he was one of the first elders of that congregation. This
inference is strengthened by the fact that Captain James Allen,
his son-in-law, is also named as a member of the session, and
three or four names intervene between him and John Ander-
son. James Allen is known to have been one of the elders
of this church as early as 1746, and the fact that his father-
in-law precedes him in the deed referred to makes it almost
certain that John Anderson was not only the senior elder
of the church at that time, but one of tlie first elders originally
elected. His will was made in 1787 and probated at Staunton,
Va., in 1789. His wife was then living, but the date of her
death is unknown. His children, as named in the will, were
as follows : 1st, Robert ; 2d, James ; 3d, Andrew ; 4th, Wil-
liam ; 5th, Margaret, and 6th, Jean.

I. Margaret is believed to have been the eldest child
of John and Jean Anderson. She was evidently bom prior
to 1740, because no record of her baptism occurs in the
register of Rev. John Craig, pastor of the old Stone Church,
which record is now in the library of General John E. Roller,
of Harrisonburg, Va. Besides, her eldest child, Jean, who
married Captain James Trimble, was bom in the year 1756,
which would indicate that Margaret Anderson was born at
some time during the period between 1735-40. She married,
as stated, James Allen, soil of William Allen, who was among
the earliest settlers in Augusta. James Allen was a captain
of militia in 1756, and also participated in the battle of Point
Pleasant. He died in 1810, 94 years of age, having been an
elder of Augusta Stone Church for 64 years. Their children
were:

1. JeaUy wife of James Trimble, a captain of rifle rangers
during the war of the Revolution. He removed with his
family to Kentucky in 1784 and resided there until 1804,
when he died upon the eve of his contemplated removal to
Hillsboro, Ohio. Issue : Allen, bom in Augusta county, Va.,

310 GLEANINGS OF VIRGINIA HISTORY.

Nov. 24, 1783, and died in Highland county, Ohio, Feb. 3,
1870. Allen Trimble was clerk of the courts and recorder
of Highland county in 1809-16. In the war of 1812 he com-
manded a mounted regiment under General William Henry
Harrison and rendered efficient service. He was a member
of the Ohio House of Representatives in 1816, State Senator
in 1817, and Speaker of that body, holding the position until
Jan. 7, 1822, when he became Acting Governor, and served
to the end of that year. In 1826 he was elected Governor,
and re-elected in 1828. His brother, William A. Trimble,
was born in Woodford county, Ky., April 4, 1786, and re-
moved with his family to Ohio. He graduated at Transyl-
vania University, and then returned to Ohio and spent some
time in the office of his brother Allen. At the outbreak of the
War of 1812 he was chosen major in the Ohio volunteers ; was
at Huirs surrender and liberated on parole. He was after-
wards exchanged and commissioned major in the 26th regi-
ment. In the defense of Fort Erie he acted with signal
gallantry, and received a severe wound, which was the cause
of his death years afterwards. He remained in the army
until 1819, with the rank of brevet lieutenant-colonel, and
was then elected to the United States Senate ; took his seat in
December, 1819, and gave promise of much future usefulness.
He died, however, Dec. 13, 1821, aged 35 years, being prob-
ably the youngest man ever elected to the United States
Senate. Captain James Trimble and Jean, his wife, had other
children, but the writer is not acquainted with their history.

2. AnUf wife of Col. William Poague ; and their children
were: Allen, John, William, Jean, Mary, James, Thomas,
and Hugh. The writer has but little information concerning
the children of William and Ann (Allen) Poague, but Thomas
was a lawyer of distinction in southwest Virginia, and during
the Civil War was colonel of the 50th Virginia regiment when
he was killed in battle on Black Water in February, 1863.

3. Elizabeth, married the Rev. John McCue, pastor of Tink-
ling Spring church. They had issue as follows : James A.,

Orange county, Va. Nearly all these children of William
Bell and Margaret, his wife, left issue, but it would be impos-
sible to enumerate them within the limits of this sketch.

but no mention is made of him in his father's will, and no
tradition concerning him is known to the writer. Therefore,
it is believed that he died unmarried, probably in infancy.

SMITH FAMILY OF AUGUSTA AND ROCKINGHAM
COUNTIES, VIRGINIA.

Capt. John Smith, bom 1698, in England, settled with his
parents in Province of Ulster, Ireland ; is said to have been
an officer of the British army (?), and married, in 1719, Mar-
garet ; immigrated to America about 1730, with his

wife and children ; settled, 1st, in Chester Co., Pa., about 1740;
removed, with the McDowells and others, to what is now
Augusta county, Virginia, then Orange, and on June 26^
1740, proved the importation of himself, his wife Margaret,
their sons Abraham, Henry, Daniel, John and Joseph, from
the colony of Penna. (See Orange County Land Records.)
In 1738 Augusta county was taken from Orange, the first
court being held in Staunton Dec. 9, 1745, prior to which
time all the legal business of Augusta county was transacted
at Orange Court House. June 26, 1742, John Smith qualified
at Orange Court House as captain of the militia for Augusta
county.

As a protection against the inroads of the Indians, he had
several rude forts, or block-houses, constructed in the Valley,
one of which was in the county of Botetourt, on the James
river, where Pattonsburg was subsequently located. This fort
became the scene of memorable events. ^ •

Capt. John Smith, with seventeen men, held a fort, called
Fort Vause— variously written Vass, Voss, and Vaus — ^which
was located on the head-waters of the Roanoke river, about ten
miles from where Christiansburg now stands. This fort was
invested by three hundred French and Indians, and, after a
brave resistance for three days, the garrison agreed to sur-
render the fort, upon a stipulation allowing them to return to
their homes. Astonished and mortified at finding so few men
in the fort, the enemy disregarded the terms of surrender and
held the survivors — ^now only nine or ten in number — ^as
prisoners. Twc^of Capt. Smith's sons were with him : John,

GENEALOGY OP THE SMITH FAMILY. 331

who was wounded during the siege, and killed by an Indian
after the surrender. The prisoners were taken down the Ohio
and Mississippi rivers to New Orleans, and on the way down
the other young Smith (Joseph), who had survived the disaster
at the fort, died. Only five of the prisoners lived to reach
New Orleans. Capt. Smith and two others were then sent to
France, and he alone returned to America, after an absence
of two years. " When the treaty was signed at the fort, Cap-
tain Smith was so cautious as to secure the paper by ripping
open the lining of his coat and sewing it between, which de-
feated the most diligent search for it. On arriving at Paris,
Capt. Smith produced the agreement, and, upon exhibiting it to
the proper authorities, was promptly released, and with his two
companions was sent to London, where he received quite an
ovation, a street being named in his honor. He there told
of the immense territory of the Southwestern country."

Mr. Waddell, in the Virginia Magazine of History and
Biography, says :

" Capt. John Smith commanded a company in the disastrous
Sandy Creek expedition, sent out on Feb. 18, 1756, and it
would seem that after his return he was stationed at Fort
Vause ; also, that while Capt. Smith was detained as a pris-
oner and absent two years, his pay durvng thai time, and also
that of his sorif Lieut, John Smithj Jr,, up to the time he was
killed aJt Fort Vause, on June ^6, 1766, vxis provided for by an
Act of Assembly, passed by the House of Burgesses. — Meninges
Vvrgima Statutes.'^

As a further proof of the accounts given by Mr. Waddell,
and Benj. H. Smith, the Editor of the Virginia Magazine of
History and Biography, adds : " A register of the persons who
have been either wounded, killed, or taken prisoner by the
enemy in Augusta county, as also such as have made their
escape ; " and among many other names and dates are found
the following : " June 25th, 1756, at Fort Vause, Capt. John
Smith, prisoner returned 1758, Lieut. John Smith (Jr.), killed,
Joseph Smith, prisoner, died on the way to N#w Orleans."

332 aLEANiNas op vikginia history.

"After his return to this country, probably in impaired
health, he seems to have taken no active part in Military
affairs.

" He survived until the Revolutionary War began, and this,
his military spirit having revived, he applied for a Com-
mission and was refused on account of his advanced age, then
78 years, which greatly offended him. He died shortly after
this at Smithlands, the residence of his son Daniel, two miles
north of Harrisonburg, Virginia.

" His sons, Abraham, Henry, and Daniel, were also prom-
inent in the French and Indian Wars ; his son-in-law, Hugh
Reece Bowen, was killed at the battle of Kings Mountain,
near the close of the fight, as a Lieut, of Campbell's Raiment
of Riflemen, Virginia Militia, on Oct. 7, 1780, and left many
highly respectable descendants in southwestern Virginia,
namely, Tazewell, Wythe, and Montgomery counties."

Capt. Smith was one of the first Vestry Members for the
parish of Augusta ; their first Meeting was held April 5, 1747,
at which date John Smith, John Buchanan, James Patton,
John Madison and others, took the oath appointed by act of
Parliament as such. His name appears as being present at
all meetings from 1747 to Nov. 23, 1756; at this meeting
John Matthews, Jr., was chosen Vestryman in place of Capt.
John Smith, who had been captured at Fort Vause on Nov.
20, 1758, there being a vacancy. Col. (formerly Capt.) John
Smith having returned to Virginia, was chosen Vestrjrman,
which position he held until May 25, 1760. The military
record of Capt. John Smith is well known, he having received
from his colony, grants of land for his service as early as
1754. (See records.) His military record is too well known
to require any further notice in this paper.

On March 30, 1745, John Smith, Gentleman, had patented
to him 400 acres of land in the great survey on Mossy Creek,
and 400 acres on Spring Creek ; from this time on for many
years the records of Augusta show that he and his sons
handled many thousand acres of the best lands in the Shen-

Second Generation.

Daniel Smith, 2d of Capt. John and Margaret Smith, bom
in Ireland in 1724,. came to Ame rica withjiis^arenta aged
about six years ; finally settled in Augusta county, where he
married Jane Harrison about 1751, bom 1735, daughter of
Daniel Harrison, and sister of Col. Benjamin Harrison, of/
Augusta county (see Harrison family.)

March 10, 1751, he purchased a tract of land on the head
of Linsville Creek, adjoining the land of his father-in-law,
where he built his residence later known as " Smithland," a
magnificent estate in Augusta county, now Rockingham.
His is said to have been the first brick house built in the
Valley; situated two miles north of Harrisonburg, Va.
Smithland, the estate on which he lived and died, was pat-
ented Aug. 20, 1741, by Daniel Harrison, his father-in-law.
(Deed book 1, Augusta county records.)

In 1757 Col. Daniel Smith was one of the Justices for
Augusta county ; was Capt. of a company under Gen. Lewis
in the battle of Poi^t Pleasant ; he was a member of the
Courtmartial for West Augusta district firom the beginning of
the French wars until Oct., 1777 ; on Sept. 20, 1781, he was
commissioned, in the Revolutionary army, as Deputy Pur-
veyor, Southern Department. As the Presiding Justice of
Rockingham county, he signed the court records for the last
time on Sept. 24, 1781, and left immediately for Yorktown,
where he joined four of his sons, viz.: John, Daniel, Joseph,
and Robert, who were in the Revolutionary army. After the
return of the troops from the siege of Yorktown, Daniel
Smith, then designated Colonel, summoned those from Rock-
ingham, for a review to celebrate the victory ; the last act of
which was the " running salute." As the troops began firing,
his horse became frightened, sprang aside, spraining his
rider's back and throwing him ; from which injury he died
in a few days.

In 1778 Rockingham county was formed from Augusta;
the plantations of Col. Daniel Smith being in the new county ;

of sixteen years entered Washington College, now Washington
and Lee University, graduating with the degree of Bachelor
of Arts ; studied law under his father, and afterwards attended
the law school of Judge John W. Brockenbrough.

In 1852 was licensed to practice law, in which he was
eminently successful. In 1859 and 1860 he represented the
county of Kanawha in the legislature of Virginia. During
the Civil War he served as major of the 22d Virginia Regi-
ment C. S. A.

He was a man of extensive information and breadth of
thought, including not only the graver things of business, but
the nobler affairs of life — love of humanity, devotion to family
and friends — unobtrusive, but zealous in good works. His
life was moulded by three principles : love of God, charity for
his fellowman, and respect of self; and it is not eulogistic to
say that, gauged by these standards, his life was complete.

The Smith, Harrison and Cravens family records were
courteously supplied by Mr. William P. Tams, of Staunton,
Virginia, and Mr. Roger Morris Smith, of St. Matthew's, Jeffer-
son county, Kentucky. These gentlemen have spent much
time and thought in the study of their family history.

For any errors in the mechanical construction of the paper
the publisher is responsible. In several instances where dates
are omitted from the records, there were doubts as to the order
of birth of various members of the families. The publisher
hopes his arrangement of them will be found satisfactory, and
will welcome any corrections, additional data, or historical
data.

QBNBALOQT OF THS HARRISOK FAMILY. 373

HARRISON FAMILY OF AUGUSTA AND ROCKING-
INGHAM COUNTIES, VA.

Thomas Harrison, the founder of this family, on March 15,
1744, obtained from Lieut.-Gov. William Gooch a grant for
258 acres of land in Orange county, later Augusta county,
situated at the head spring of the east fork of Cook's Creek.
Of his early life, or the date of his death or that of his wife,
nothing definitely is known ; it is claimed by some of his de-
scendants that he belonged to the James River Harrisons ; of
this, however, we find no proof; some writers claim that he
was an immigrant direct to Chester county, Penna., then to
Orange county, Va., about 1743.

The publisher is of the opinion that Thomas Harrison de-
scended from one of the early Maryland immigrants, some of
whom are known to have settled in Virginia, in what was
then Stafford county, about 1700 ; after 1730 Prince William
county, which at this date embraced the counties of Fairfax,
Loudoun and Fauquier ; this territory being the natural route
to Augusta county, where about 1743-4 he removed and set-
tled on Cook's Creek. After 1690 the names of several
branches of the Harrison family disappear from the Maryland
records, and later are found in Virginia, but owing to the de-
struction of the early records of Stafford, and many of those
of Prince William counties, it is doubtful if satisfactory record
proof can be obtained. Of the children of Thomas Harrison
we have no record, except that of Daniel.

Second Gbnbration.

Daniel Harrison, son of Thomas and Jane (Delahage) Har-
rison, bom in 1700 (perhaps Charles county, Md.) ; was twice
married : 1st, to Margaret Cravens, a sister of Robert. Seven

Jr.; to Daniel Smith, the husband of his sister, Jane, bom

Irish parentage in 1761, and settled in the Warm Spring
Valley on the Cowpasture River, a branch of the James,
called by the Indians Wallahatoolah. His tract of land con-
taining 400 acres was known as Flowing Spring, named from
a series of springs which flowed at irregular intervals, gushing
out of the earth in such an unusual manner ias to attract the
attention of Thomas Jeflferson and other writers on Virginia.

During the Revolution John Brown enlisted a company of
militia soldiers in Augusta county from the neighborhood in
which he lived, of which he was captain, and Robt. Thomp-
son, lieutenant, Col. Sampson Matthews, commander; his
company marched to Richmond, thence to Petersburg and
Amelia county, where they saw active service; was in the
engagement with the British at the battle of Hot Water, and
again at the battle of Green Spring (Jamestown), in which
Major Brown (then Capt.) was taken prisoner July 6, 1781.

Upon the organization of Bath county, Aug. 26, 1791,
Major Brown was commissioned one of the first justices for the
county, which position he continued to hold until his death ;
was also Capt. of militia for the county, occupying various
positions of trust, as Sheriff" and Treasurer for Bath county,
and later was Major in command of the 2d Battalion of Bath
county militia ; April 12, 1796, was elected a member of the
General Assembly of the state of Virginia, and again in 1802-
3--4. Lieut. Robt. Thompson, Jan. 8, 1833, in his declaration
for a pension says : he was commissioned Lieut, of Virginia
militia of Augusta county, and served as such under Capt.
John Brown ; that he was in the battle of Hot Water and at
Jamestown; that they marched to Richmond, Petersburg,
Amelia county, etc., under command of Col. Sampson Matthew,
and was with Gen. Campbell, Wayne and Morgan.

Mary (Donnelly) Brown, wife of Capt. John, died about
April, 1815, as a deed bearing date April 1st, of this year, was
signed by her, but not acknowledged. Major Brown died
Feb. 6, 1830, his will bearing date Nov. 6, 1824, with codicil
dated March 17, 1828 ; was proven June term of Court^ 1830 ;

MARRIAGES SOLEMNIZED IN ALBEMARLE COUNTY,

VIRGINIA, BY THE REV. JOHN GIBSON,

FROM 1800 TO 1846.

John Gibson was bom 1759, in Culpeper county, Virginia,
son of Peter, where he resided until 1782. He was reared on
the plantation of his father with only the limited opportunities
of the Log Cabin School House for an education, and these
but for three months in the year.

September 30, 1778, at the age of nineteen, he enlisted as a
private soldier in the Culpeper county militia, or minute-men,
under Capt. Francis Miller, with whom he marched from Cul-
peper to Orange, thence to Spottsylvania, thence to Essex
coimty, and later to Mobinhills, bejow Richmond, at which
place his command was stationed four weeks with troops from
all parts of Virginia. Subsequently they marched to Wil-
liamsburg, where he remained till the end of the service for
which he enlisted.

In 1779 he again enlisted for three months, as a substitute
for his fether, Peter, under Capt. James Smith ; was at Wil-
liamsburg, Norfolk and Jamestown. In April of that year
he was honorably discharged.

In 1781 John Gibson was drafted, on his own account, by
Capt. Fisher Rice, under whom he marched from Culpeper to
Louisa county. He served until discharged, returning to his
home in Culpeper. In 1782 he removed with his parents to
Albemarle county, where he married and reared a large fiunily,
living in the same neighborhood for sixty-eight years.

In early life Mr. Gibson made a profession of religion, and
joined the Methodist Episcopal Church. In 1798 he was
licensed by the Quarterly Conference of said Church as a
local minister, and as such performed many marriages in the
community in which he lived. He kept a record of these
marriages from 1800 to 1846. On Aug. 3, 1846, he filed the
same in the United States Pension Office with his application
