He was not a very strong man but had a determined will, and could accomplish most anythin 2 CONC g that he made up his mind to. When he was only ten years old his father died. This thre 2 CONC w a terriffic load on his young and immature years, as the man of the family. With his mothe 2 CONC r's help and advice he managed the farm, an they made a comfortable living, he in later year 2 CONC s buying out the other heirs, and securing title to the farm for himself. He stayed with hi 2 CONC s mother until she died looking after her and caring for her. After her death he sold the fa 2 CONC rm and moved to Birds Creek, and opened up a general store during this period living with hi 2 CONC s brother Solomon. He later purchased a large acreage of land just south of where he had hi 2 CONC s store, and there built a large and comfortable two story house. He gave up the store and i 2 CONC n the year 1892 he married Lillie Belle Paine, daughter of Rev. Smith Furgerson & Mary Emelin 2 CONC e McIntire Paine. To his new house he took Mother and there all their children were born an 2 CONC d reared, and where both he and Mother lived until their death. 2 CONT 2 CONT In Father's early manhood, he went to a log rolling, which was a great affair in those times 2 CONC . There he injured himself by overlifiting, just how he was not sure, but at the time he ble 2 CONC d internally. After that time his health was never very good, and for several years they di 2 CONC d not believe that he would survive. But he carefully guarded his health, and watched his fo 2 CONC od and lived to the age of 86 years. I believe that in the latter years of his life that hi 2 CONC s health was much improved. Father was always a very active man, he did not believe in idlen 2 CONC ess, and he practices his belief. 2 CONT 2 CONT As his father died when he was only ten years old, he did not know too much about the Clark f 2 CONC amily. They had scattered, some of them went to TX, some to OK, some to AR, some to MO, an 2 CONC d in those days it was very difficult to correspond with each other. As the years and the Ci 2 CONC vil War passed they gradually lost tract of each other. His brother Solomon, moved to Dalton 2 CONC , GA and bought a farm there. His sister Minerva whom married Rufus Shields, followed him th 2 CONC ere. His sister Emeline whom had married John Williams, moved to Dunn's Creek, near Cosby 2 CONC . His sister Sarrah whom had married Joseph Williams, lived on an adjoining farm to his on B 2 CONC irds Creek, and of course he kept in contact with those. But it was rather his Father's brot 2 CONC hers and sisters with whom he lost contact, as in those days there was almost no mail servic 2 CONC e and transportation was almost nil. 2 CONT 2 CONT One incident in Father's life as he related it to me, was when he was about 11 years old, h 2 CONC e was captured and taken to Longstreet's encampment not far from where they lived. The encam 2 CONC pment was in what they called the flat woods near Harrisburg. You can imagine that a small b 2 CONC oy of 11 was pretty scared. They kept him overnight and next morning returned him to his mot 2 CONC her. They asked him lots of questions, figuring that he might could tell them the whereabout 2 CONC s of some of the men whom were hiding out in that vicinity. They did not harm or threaten hi 2 CONC m in any way, and after he got over his scare, I think that he rather enjoyed it. 2 CONT 2 CONT During the Civil War, he and his sisters would take turns holding the stock to keep the soldi 2 CONC ers from getting them. They did get one of their mares, but his mother went to Colonel Murph 2 CONC y and he went with her to the encampment and the commanding officer made them line up the hor 2 CONC ses, and told her to pick her's out. She did, and he returned it to her. 2 CONT 2 CONT Some of Father's ancestors were very scholary, some could speak several different languages 2 CONC , could read books written in Latin, and wrote a very legible hand-writing in the script of t 2 CONC heir day. 2 CONT 2 CONT Father was a very civic-minded man, and he always worked for the betterment of the community 2 CONC , in making it a better place for his children to live. He worked tirelessly to establish Sm 2 CONC oky Mountain Academy, and he and Rev. S. F. Paine, were largely responsible for its being a r 2 CONC eality. Most of the planning was done at home. Father was one of its founders. He donate 2 CONC d all of the lumber which went into its building and the first dormitory. He gave of his tim 2 CONC e and monetary support until his death. He was one of its first Trustees and always gave i 2 CONC t his active support. 2 CONT 2 CONT Father joined the Zion Grove Baptist Church and was baptized sometime in his late fifties. T 2 CONC he exact year I do not know, but I saw him baptized. He was baptised in Birds Creek just abo 2 CONC ve ford now going over to D. E. Brown's . He had always actively supported the church, and w 2 CONC hen something was going on at the church, Father never missed it, and saw that his children w 2 CONC ent also. 2 CONT 2 CONT Father was a great believer in education, and his church, and he tried in every way possibl 2 CONC e to educate his children, and to see that facilities were available for that purpose. 2 CONT 2 CONT Father was a very determined man, strictly honest, and thought everyone else should be the sa 2 CONC me. He lost quite a lot of money in trusting people. Once Father had made up his mind on a 2 CONC n issue, he was very hard to change. In fact as far as Father was concerned, that was the wa 2 CONC y it was or had to be. He demanded and received complete obedience from his children. He w 2 CONC as very strict, though gentle, and the rules and regulations he propounded for his childfen h 2 CONC ad to be adhered to without question, and any deviation there-from called for disciplinary ac 2 CONC tion therefore. Father loved his children and family very much, and was always interested i 2 CONC n their well-being. He loved his home, and only left it to attend to necessary business, o 2 CONC r his church, always returning as soon as possible. His entire life was, him home and family 2 CONC . 2 CONT 2 CONT Father, although his health was not very good, was always active, and was, up to the time o 2 CONC f his terminal illness, his willpower often carrying him through any task that he chose to pe 2 CONC rform. Late in the fall of 1937, Father, one cold rainy day, left the house to see about th 2 CONC e division of the crops of one of the Tennants. Mother tried to keep him from going, but h 2 CONC e went anyway. He got wet and chilled from which he took pneumonia. Although he recovered f 2 CONC rom the pneumonia itself, he did not recover from the effects of it. On the morning of Jun 2 CONC e 15th, 1938, holding my hand he passed quietly, and peacefully away. I had not only los 2 CONC t a father, but a dear friend and counselor as well. Father was gone from us at the age of 8 2 CONC 6, and the family circle was broken. He was laid to rest in the New Zion's Grove Baptist Chu 2 CONC rch Cemetery, beside his daughter Mary.

Perhaps this is where Robert learned his tobacco planting skills. 2 CONT Although LDS files tie this VA Glidewell line to Aymes Gladwell, or others, it is not yet pro 2 CONC ven whether my Virginia Glidewells originated in England or Scotland, nor is Robert's parenta 2 CONC ge proven. One obituary from the 1800's claims northern England as our country of origin, whi 2 CONC le two other obits from the same era claim Scottish descent. The William Coggins who is menti 2 CONC oned above, was from Scotland. English church records prior to 1600 show several GLIDEWELL o 2 CONC r GLIDWELLs in England, primarily in the Bedford and Kent areas, however, there has been no c 2 CONC lear connection made to any of them yet. (See the pre-1600 list) 2 CONT Robert (b.ca1695) Glidewell died in 1728, as recorded in the Vestry Book, of face cancer. Hi 2 CONC s wife Elizabeth is found again at the time of her death, Sept.1765, in Chesterfield Co. VA ( 2 CONC order book 3, part 2) as "...being so poor that no person will take administration of her est 2 CONC ate orders that the Sherif do take and administer the same and under his account." 2 CONT 2 CONT Now we have two Roberts, either of whom might have been our ancestor. (comments from: Jack Gl 2 CONC idewell) 2 CONT Some secondary sources report that Robert (b 1698) was the son of William Glidewell (b 166 2 CONC 5 London) and Alice Briant (b unk m 1697 London). Diane Fitzgibbons has studied the LDS recor 2 CONC ds, and has the primary sources. 2 CONT On the other hand, in the Compendium of American Genealogy, Vol III, 1942, p 564. "GLIDEWELL 2 CONC , James Arthur, b Cooper, Tex, Nov. 6, 1889, and others, reported: 2 CONT "11. Aymes Glidewell (b1619) from Eng. in the "Increase," 1835, settled at Boston, Mass.; 2 CONT 10.

None that I have found cite any sources other than the pe 2 CONC rson who recounted his family history. 2 CONT The second group of genealogists often (not always) place Robert in the line of descent as t 2 CONC he son of Daniel who was the son of Aymes. 2 CONT The first group places Robert as the son of William, b 1736, in Bexley, Kent, England, who m 2 CONC igrated to the Virginia colony late in the 1600s. William’s father was Reinhold, b. betwee 2 CONC n 1613 and 1618 in England. 2 CONT I have been unable to find a report of the birth of Robert II, born 1700 (+ or - 5), to an 2 CONC y parents in the Parish Vestry Book Birth Register. To my knowledge, limited as it is, thi 2 CONC s issue has not been settled as of now (28 June 2003). 2 CONT Tentatively I accept the idea that one of the two Roberts (b 1700 + or - a year or two) wa 2 CONC s the father of Nash (b 1721) and Robert (b 1722).

S. Census, William Wagster is in Mecklenburg County, N. C. in Distr 2 CONC ict 12. Mecklenburg County was a hot bed of radicalism in the late 1700’s. The Scotch-Iris 2 CONC h signed their Declaration of Independence from England, one year, May 20, 1775, before the U 2 CONC . S. Declaration was passed on July 4, 1776. This forced the Tories in the area to pledge t 2 CONC heir allegiance to Cromwell in England. 2 CONT 2 CONT The Revolutionary War in the Southern colonies would be fought differently than the Norther 2 CONC n Colonies. The heavy Tory influence made the British over confident and they did not sen 2 CONC d a large amount of troops. Also guerilla warfare, hit and Run, would be the order of the da 2 CONC y. The Continental efforts would be led by Frances Marion, “The Swamp Fox and “Light Horse H 2 CONC arry” Lee, the father of Robert E. Lee. Later the English would land at Charleston and swee 2 CONC p through Savannah and then head North, thinking as they took ground, they could turn it ove 2 CONC r to the local Tory militia. This did not work because the Tories could not keep control. I 2 CONC t probably was a neighbor against neighbor thing based on political beliefs and religious (Ch 2 CONC urch of England versus new protestant religions of “The Great Awakening.”) 2 CONT 2 CONT The history of Mecklenburg County, North Carolina begins in about 1740 when Thomas Spratt fir 2 CONC st settled in the area. Mecklenburg was formed from its parent county Anson in 1762. Distri 2 CONC ct 12, however was a small pocket of German and Dutch settlers, some who came from Pennsylvan 2 CONC ia. At first, because of the spelling Waginor, I thought we might be German; variations I f 2 CONC ound were Waggister, Wagaester, Wagester and Wagiaster. However, since few people could rea 2 CONC d or write and the Germans were more likely than the Scotch-Irish; it makes sense that the pe 2 CONC rson taking the information would spell it the way he envisioned it. This is one of the diff 2 CONC iculties with the Census. 2 CONT 2 CONT He came from England with Lord Cornwallis to America. He deserted and served 7 years with th 2 CONC e Americans. 2 CONT 2 CONT There is a marriage record in Wake Co., NC for a William WASTER to Mary BLALOCK on 15 Jan 178 2 CONC 0. James LANE is listed as the Bondsman. 2 CONT 2 CONT 1790 NC Census: District 12 2 CONT William WAGGINOR 2 CONT 1 male over 16 2 CONT 5 males under 16 2 CONT 2 females 2 CONT No slaves or boarders. 2 CONT 2 CONT William Wagster’s Revolutionary War Pension File SC S38459 is on file in United States Nation 2 CONC al Archives. 2 CONT 2 CONT “Declaration made July 5, 1819 in Edgefield District South Carolina by William Wagster, age 7 2 CONC 3. And stated he enlisted as a private in the Revolutionary War in town of Charleston, Sout 2 CONC h Carolina in Winter of 1777, under Capt. Gervey, in the fifth regiment of South Carolina com 2 CONC manded by Col Huger, who was under Gen Howe and later General Lincoln. He continued to serv 2 CONC e at Charleston for three years, even after the British took Charleston in 1780. He got writ 2 CONC ten permission from Col Huger to pass and repass as a British Prisoner of War, which was exte 2 CONC nded to screen him from the British and the Tories. He also served at the Battle of Savanna 2 CONC h under Gen Howe and several other skirmishes.” 2 CONT 2 CONT In 1831, Dec 24, in Butler County Alabama, William restated his record to move his pension t 2 CONC o Alabama and did so again in Feb 20, 1828 in Monroe County Alabama. Later Stanmore Watson w 2 CONC ould seek a pension for Mary Blaylock Wagster a widow of William Wagster and act as her heir 2 CONC . Probably Bounty Land grants were involved here too. 2 CONT 2 CONT In November of 1778 a British force of 3,500 Redcoats, Hessians (German Mercenaries), and Ne 2 CONC w York Tories joined by British troops from San Augustine marched against Savannah. Ga. The 2 CONC y landed in December and were opposed by Continental troops under General Robert Howe. The T 2 CONC en Continental regiments formed in South Carolina and Georgia had by now seen their ranks dim 2 CONC inished by early war losses, disease and desertion. Howe was unable to defend Savannah and t 2 CONC he quick collapse encouraged the British to march on Charleston. While Washington commande 2 CONC d the central division. Congress appointed Charles Lee, Robert Howe, Benjamin Lincoln and Ho 2 CONC ratio Gates as commanders in the South. Later Nathaniel Green would take over the command o 2 CONC f the South, while all these commanders were subordinates to Washington, they would operate a 2 CONC s independent commanders because of the distance and poor communications. 2 CONT 2 CONT In the defense of Charleston, the British under Clinton had the advantage and General Isaac H 2 CONC uger’s group held Moncks Corner. Had Gen Lincoln not delayed his order of retreat, Huger’s g 2 CONC roup could have protected the withdrawal of the majority of the patriots. The delay allowe 2 CONC d Huger’s group to be surprised and routed. Thus Lincoln would surrender May 12 along with 5 2 CONC 500 troops and several distinguished Carolinians. Troops such as William simply melted awa 2 CONC y and lived to fight another day. Francis Marion, John Rutledge and others would continue t 2 CONC o fight. Gates would leave Cornwallis in Charge and he would head North. The Tory influenc 2 CONC e would not hold and eventually Cornwallis would be trapped at Yorktown. It is worth notin 2 CONC g here, that the taking of troops from New York and the use of the British Fleet to land in C 2 CONC harleston, allowed the landing of French troops and support in Rhode Island to help Washingto 2 CONC n. It would be the guerillas that would wear down Cornwallis’s troops and the French fleet t 2 CONC hat would close off their retreat from the British Fleet. 2 CONT 2 CONT Other confirmations of Williams record or in Bobby Gilmer Ross’s Roster of South Carolina pat 2 CONC riots (R929.3757, M855R) and Roster of Revolutionary Soldiers & Patriots in Alabama, Alabam 2 CONC a DAR.

Although, the three compilers probably worked f 2 CONC rom same original documents, and borrowed from each other, this landing is very well document 2 CONC ed. What is not so well documented is what happened to Aymes in the MA colony. This, undocu 2 CONC mented, is what the Arthur Glidewell manuscripts had to say: 2 CONT "When he arrived in Boston in 1635, Aymes Glidewell first went to his uncle's, probably Anth 2 CONC ony Ames of Charleston, Mass. Here he became one of an already large family for a few years. 2 CONT "By 1640, Aymes must of [sic] tired of the hard colonist's life, or maybe he just becam 2 CONC e restless. Anyway, he went to sea on some of the numerous ships sailing out of the Boston h 2 CONC arbor. About 1645, he moved to Gloucester, and was married there to Ann Bruen, Daughter of D 2 CONC aniel Bruen, another sailor-fisherman. Aymes settled down to deep sea fishing, a new but rap 2 CONC idly growing industry in the colony. 2 CONT 2 CONT "One son Daniel, with whom we are chiefly concerned, was born in 1656 at Gloucester. Ther 2 CONC e may have been other children, but we know nothing about them. When Daniel was about 5 year 2 CONC s old, his father was lost at sea. The widow, with Daniel and her other children, if any, mo 2 CONC ved to New Windsor, Conn., to live with relatives. Her parents were already dead, but an unc 2 CONC le, Obidiah Bruen, was a prominent and prosperous citizen of that town. 2 CONT [There is no mention of a son Robert, only a son Daniel. But in his article in the Ame 2 CONC rican Compendium, he reported that Aymes had a son Robert who was Daniel's father.] 2 CONT "Four or five years later, in 1666, Obidiah Bruen sold out of his land in Conn. and moved t 2 CONC o New Jersey, where he became one of the proprietors of a rather large grant. Ann Bruen Glid 2 CONC ewell died about this time, whether before the move or after is not known; but the orphan Dan 2 CONC iel was taken to New Jersey, where he lived through his youth. Daniel must have inherited hi 2 CONC s father's love for the sea, for when he was 12, he shipped as a cabin boy on a sailing merch 2 CONC ant ship, beginning a career that would last two decades until he was too broken by the har 2 CONC d life to continue in it. Thus, about 1690, Daniel Glidewell a broken old man at 35, retire 2 CONC d to land in the Isle of Wight County, VA. Perhaps his last voyage had ended at Norfolk; o 2 CONC r he may have met there the widow he was to marry, Susan (Bernard) Thomas, whom he married ab 2 CONC out 1696. 2 CONT Daniel's son, Robert, is our ancestor. There may have been other children of this union 2 CONC , but we don't know about them. Robert was born about 1698.

This cannot be so, as William Gilbert I's son, John, was dead by 1810 2 CONC . 2 CONT 2 CONT Gilbert Town 2 CONT Gilbert Town was located about the center of Rutherford County. The first courthouse was buil 2 CONC t on Holland's creek, about the middle of the community, and was torn down about 1878 by it 2 CONC s owner, J.A. Forney. The small village of Gilbert Town consisted of a number of buildings an 2 CONC d log homes. 2 CONT It was said that William Gilbert brought a group of Scotchmen to the area where they manufact 2 CONC ured furniture and other wood products. 2 CONT William Gilbert 2 CONT William Gilbert, of Scotch-Irish heritage, came to America and settled first in Philadelphia 2 CONC , where he met and married Sarah McCanless, who was born there in 1737. They traveled to Char 2 CONC leston, South Carolina, from Philadelphia and then came to Old Tryon County. In 1777 and 1778 2 CONC , he was assessor of taxes and, in 1778, collector of taxes. Mr. Gilbert held the office of j 2 CONC ustice of the peace in Old Tryon County, taking his seat in July, 1778. In 1779, he represent 2 CONC ed Tryon in the North Carolina House of Commons. 2 CONT On February 8th, 1779, he was forced to resign his commission as justice of the peace on th 2 CONC e charge of duplicating his vouchers as commissary of militia of Tryon County. His guilt or i 2 CONC nnocence can never be known. Despite the charge, when Rutherford County was formed from Old T 2 CONC ryon, Gilbert represented the new county in the North Carolina House of Commons. He was selec 2 CONC ted in 1779, 1780, 1782, and 1783. 2 CONT Gilbert was appointed justice of the peace for Rutherford County in 1781. At the October, 178 2 CONC 1, term of the Rutherford County Court, he was chosen chairman of the court. The court vindic 2 CONC ated him of the legislative charge of duplicating his vouchers by an order in October 1781, r 2 CONC eading "On motion of William Gilbert, Esq., and testimony produced to the satisfaction of th 2 CONC e court, it is ordered that the opinion of the court be entered on the records, to-wit: It i 2 CONC s the opinion of the court that the said William Gilbert is not guilty of the charge laid aga 2 CONC inst to the General Assembly, and we do certify that the said William Gilbert never plundered 2 CONC , nor was guilty of plundering, to our knowledge." 2 CONT In October, 1783, Gilbert wanted to visit his wife's relatives in Philadelphia. The court, si 2 CONC tting at his son-in-law's house prepared, under the seal of the court, a statement of his sta 2 CONC nding and civic virtues, by way of a letter of introduction. "That the said William Gilbert h 2 CONC ath long been an inhabitant of this county, hath frequently represented the same in the Gener 2 CONC al Assembly; that he is first in commission of the place, and that it appears from the list 2 CONC s of assessments returned into the clerk's office that he is possessed of and hath given in f 2 CONC or assessing more taxable property than any other person in the county of Rutherford, and tha 2 CONC t he hath uniformly distinguished himself as a warm Whig and a true friend to his county in t 2 CONC imes of greatest distress and defection during the war." 2 CONT Despite his successful defense of the charges of treason, Gilbert continued to have legal pro 2 CONC blems after the war, being engaged in numerous lawsuits, and eventually lost his property. I 2 CONC n 1786, 1787, and a portion of 1788, he lived in Charleston, South Carolina. He later returne 2 CONC d to Gilbert Town to live at the home of his son-in-law, James Holland, where he died in 1790 2 CONC . He was buried on Ferguson's Hill above Gilbert Town. 2 CONT Sarah McCanless Gilbert lived until 1822. She went with the James Holland family in 1790 to M 2 CONC aury County, Tennessee, and is buried at Holland's Ford on the Duck River. 2 CONT James Holland married Gilbert's daughter Sarah. He represented Rutherford County in the Nort 2 CONC h Carolina House of Commons and the Senate. He was elected to the first board of trustees o 2 CONC f the University of North Carolina. 2 CONT William Gilbert - Patriot 2 CONT As mentioned, William Gilbert was charged with treason, because Ferguson used the Gilbert hom 2 CONC e as his headquarters. Lyman Draper in his definitive history, King's Mountain and Its Heroes 2 CONC , on page 159, states Gilbert "was a Loyal friend of King George." In 1897, Flournoy Rivers w 2 CONC rote in a Nashville newspaper that "Draper seemed to have presumed that Gilbert was a Loyalis 2 CONC t simply because Major Ferguson camped at Gilbert Town, as though an invading army would eve 2 CONC r quarter on a friend while in an enemy's country. As a fact, the Assembly was then sitting a 2 CONC t Hillsborough and Gilbert, being the county's representative in the House of Commons, was mo 2 CONC st likely absent there, and Ferguson, in his absence, most probably quartered on [Gilbert] a 2 CONC s an object lesson by way of making treason odious, as it were. " 2 CONT North Carolina records indicate that on October 25th, 1775, Gilbert and others, including th 2 CONC e Committee of Safety, signed the "Association Oath," expressing profound regret that "his Br 2 CONC ittannic Majesty had been so ill-advised as to encroach on the undoubted rights of the coloni 2 CONC sts as Englishmen, with the firmly expressed intention of sustaining both the Continental an 2 CONC d Provincial Congresses." http://www.nps.gov/ovvi/nc3/kmf-gton.htm 2 CONT 2 CONT 2 CONT We are working on the assumption that the Rev.

Her birt 2 CONC hdate has been listed as ca. 1737, but guessing by her children's birthdates implies a birthd 2 CONC ate closer to 1744; she was probably a bit younger than her husband, as he seems to have fath 2 CONC ered children at least from the ages of about 29 to about 43. 2 CONT More than one source has said that John Scott, father of John Wilson Scott I, was born in o 2 CONC r about 1734 in Pennsylvania, the son of Andrew Scott, who emigrated from Scotland to Pennsyl 2 CONC vania in or about 1725 ("Annals of Iowa", Vol. XIII, No. 4, April, 1922; "History of the Earl 2 CONC y Settlers of Sangamon co. Illinois", 1876). These sources relied heavily on 2nd- and 3rd-gen 2 CONC eration descendants of John Wilson Scott I, so their information was apparently the family tr 2 CONC adition passed down by John Wilson Scott I. 2 CONT Anna's maiden name was long thought to be Wilson, which would account for the name being pass 2 CONC ed down to her sons and beyond. However, no proof has ever been found. Many sources have repe 2 CONC ated the obvious date errors in "History of the Early Settlers of Sangamon co. Illinois" (tha 2 CONC t the John Scott who was born in 1734 and married in 1756 also fought in the Revolutionary Wa 2 CONC r and had his eldest son born in 1786); also listed in this book was that John Wilson Scott' 2 CONC s first wife was Ann Craytin. However, since many of George & Anne Scott Kincannon's (see bel 2 CONC ow) descendants passed on the family name "Creighton" (including to their youngest daughter 2 CONC , Isabella Creighton Kincannon), and absolutely none of the descendants of George Kincannon' 2 CONC s brothers and sisters passed on that name, it was thought by Kincannon family researchers- a 2 CONC nd is reasonable to conclude- that the name was passed from Anne Scott's family. The confusio 2 CONC n in "History of the Early Settlers of Sangamon co. Illinois" may have come from Ann Creighto 2 CONC n being John Wilson Scott's mother's name, not his first wife's name. 2 CONT The basic problem may be that all the family tradition information before John Wilson Scot 2 CONC t I was passed down by him and him alone- there is no proof so far of any of his brothers an 2 CONC d sisters interacted with his family after his marriage to Nancy Keith. It is understandabl 2 CONC e that one detail that would be incorrectly repeated by his second family is the name of hi 2 CONC s first wife. 2 CONT According to "Annuals of Southwest Virginia", under 'First Surveys of Land in Washington co 2 CONC . Va.', p. 1245, John Scott was surveyed with 400 acres in Washington county on 20 Aug 1781 t 2 CONC hat was actually settled in 1772, as well as 400 acres that probably was the same land on 2 2 CONC 9 Jan 1783 on the north side of the middle fork of the Holston River, and 400 acres (again, m 2 CONC ay or may not be the same land) on a branch of the Little Hoston River and the north side o 2 CONC f the middle fork of the Holston River. 2 CONT On 18 May 1781, John Scott was a part of a grand jury (along with Francis Kincannon) in a cas 2 CONC e between William Jenkins and his father Thomas Jenkins. 2 CONT From 1781 to 1802, John Scott was listed in various tax lists and personal property lists i 2 CONC n Washington county, Virginia. He was always listed as owning as few as 3 or as many as 6 hor 2 CONC ses. Because there was another extended Scott family living nearby at the time, it is difficu 2 CONC lt to ascertain which other Scotts belong to which family, but I believe his son John (liste 2 CONC d as "John Jr.") was enumerated with him 1783; his son Wilson in 1788 & 1789; and his son And 2 CONC rew in 1795 and 1797-1805 (when the lists I had access to ended). Since we know John (Jr.) wa 2 CONC s born in 1763, resonable estimates for Wilson & Andrew's birthdates would be 1768 and 1775 r 2 CONC espectively, if they ventured onto their own land at the same ages. 2 CONT No other John Scott is listed in 1784, so our John (Wilson) Scott had left the county, eithe 2 CONC r as a widower, or with his young wife and child- the wife dying shortly after. In 1785 anoth 2 CONC er John Scott is listed, and in 1786 two "J. Scotts" were listed, but they did not live nea 2 CONC r the elder John Scott of our line. Also in 1786, Russell county was formed from part of Wash 2 CONC ington county. In 1787 and 1788, our John Scott is the only one listed- it would seem the oth 2 CONC er J. Scotts lived in what became Russell county. At this point, it is believed our John W. S 2 CONC cott I was married to Nancy Keith and they had had their first child, Andrew. 2 CONT On 17 Aug 1788, a tax list shows listed next to each other a John Scott with one male age 16- 2 CONC 21 and 6 horses, and a William Scott with one male age 16-21 and 2 horses. On 17 Oct 1788 2 CONC , a tax list shows a John Scott and a Wilson Scott in Washington co. Va., listed next to on 2 CONC e another, as being white males and having 6 and 2 horses respectively (establishing, at leas 2 CONC t, that Wilson was sometimes enumerated at William). Only John Scott was shown to own land, t 2 CONC he same 400 acres, 3.4 per, and value of 66.13.4. Wilson Scott appears again in 1789 (now wit 2 CONC h 3 horses), but not again thereafter. John Scott continues to list 2 "county levys" (adult w 2 CONC hite males), so it would appear Wilson Scott left the county in 1789/90. 2 CONT A John Scott Jr. is listed in the Washington county tax lists beginning in 1789. Eventually 2 CONC , he owns three parcels of land consisting of 231, 60, and 20 1/2 acres (from 1801 on). Thi 2 CONC s is clearly a son of Samuel Scott Sr., of the other Scott family near Ebbing Spring (althoug 2 CONC h it's important to note that in 1789, John Scott Jr. is listed between John Scott and Wilso 2 CONC n Scott). There are also other John Scotts in those lists- a John Scott listed as "John Scot 2 CONC t R. O." (1791-1794), "John Scott W. M." (1795-1798), and "John Scott R. V." (1799-1802) al 2 CONC l seem to refer to the same person living on 126 acres. There is also an "extra" unaccounte 2 CONC d for John Scott listed in 1789, another John Scott Jr. in 1790, and a John Scott in 1791. It 2 CONC 's possible our John W. Scott I lived in Washington county for some time before finally settl 2 CONC ing in South Carolina- he isn't listed in the 1790 census in South Carolina where we know h 2 CONC e lived. 2 CONT On 15 Dec 1794, John and Anne Scott sold, for £75, 81 acres on the north side of the middle f 2 CONC ork of the Holston River in Washington co. Va., to Jacob Wolf, The next day, 16 Dec 1794, Joh 2 CONC n and Anne Scott sold, for £150, 160 acres on the north side of the middle fork of the Holsto 2 CONC n River in Washington co. Va., to John Orr. On that same day, they sold, for £100, 150 acre 2 CONC s on a branch of the middle fork of the Holston River in Washington co. Va., to Isaac William 2 CONC s. In the tax lists for 1793 and 1794, John Scott is listed with 250 acres; from 1795-1798, w 2 CONC ith no land. From 1799 until his death, he shows as having 122 acres. 2 CONT In 1802, a John Scott was recorded to have taken the oath to the Commonwealth of Virginia an 2 CONC d the oath of an Ensign in the 2nd battalion of the 70th regiment of the Virginia Militia b 2 CONC y justice of the peace Samuel Meek- probably not our John Scott. 2 CONT In the History of Rhea County, Tennessee, where George and Ann Scott Kincannon lived for a ti 2 CONC me (see below), John Scott was referred to as "Captain John Scott". 2 CONT Sometime shortly before Thursday, 4 Mar 1803, John Scott died in Washington co. Va. without l 2 CONC eaving a will. In a document (will book 2, page 419) filed on 4 Mar 1803 and proven in cour 2 CONC t on 18 Oct 1803, John Scott's heirs relinquished any claims to his estate, in consideratio 2 CONC n for their mother, who was said to be in a "forlorn situation", with "an unfortunate child b 2 CONC eing an ideot". They left the estate "to her own use & for the benefit, raising & nurturing t 2 CONC he said unfortunate child Mary W. Scott". 2 CONT On 9 Mar 1803, an inventory was taken of all the personal property of John Scott. 2 CONT On 1 Jan 1804 (the document was proven in court 17 Jan 1804), Ann Scott sold, for $1 (implyin 2 CONC g it was a gift), the tract of land where she lived on the north side of the middle fork of t 2 CONC he Holston River in Washington co. Va., to Andrew Scott (her son). The land totalled abou 2 CONC t 6 acres. On 14 Jan 1804, Andrew Scott sold, for $280.25, 31 acres and 36 poles on the nort 2 CONC h side of the middle fork of the Holston river in Washington co.

On 19 Oct 1807, David Clark and Ann Scott sol 2 CONC d 116 acres on the north side of the middle fork of the Holston. 2 CONT John & Anna Creighton Scott had at least 6 children, according to John Scott's will: 2 CONT John (Wilson) b. 29 May 1763 York co.

Neither Wilson or Jesse were there in 1840.

Two strong arguments against Andrew being the father of that John are that the names of A 2 CONC ndrew's other children do not match the names chosen for John's descendants at all, and tha 2 CONC t an apparent death date of 1794 for Andrew is very late, considering John Scott apparently l 2 CONC ived 1734-1803 (people are rarely as old as 60 when their father dies); if we consider simpl 2 CONC y that John Scott was born when his father was between the ages of 20 and 40, then this Andre 2 CONC w Scott lived between 80 and 100 years. 2 CONT 2 CONT The fact that the date the will was written and the date it was proved in court were one yea 2 CONC r apart may be significant; if Andrew was aged around 89 when he wrote this will, it was almo 2 CONC st certainly an update of an earlier will, possibly because of the death of his wife or othe 2 CONC r unmentioned children (ask yourself, would a man in his late eighties write his first will t 2 CONC hen?). 2 CONT Andrew had at least 6 children (who were living in 1794), and probably more: 2 CONT Matthew- living 1794 2 CONT Ann m. _____ (William?)

One explanation, is Wagster is a corruption for Wag’s Star. It seems the pubs i 2 CONC n England often used Star as a name; thus, if the Wags owned a pub Wag’s Star, it eventuall 2 CONC y shortened to Wagster. This applies to many English names that end in “ster.” 2 CONT 2 CONT The name Wagster appears in an obituary in The Irish Times. It is definitely Irish. Many o 2 CONC f the Wagsters were living in farming area’s close to London that were taken over by the indu 2 CONC strial Revolution or City growth. This forced these people to go elsewhere. Options, at thi 2 CONC s time were into the City or to Ireland to oversee land for someone else or take what you hav 2 CONC e and try your luck in the ‘New World.” They could have come as investors in the Virginia C 2 CONC ompany or as members of the Carolinas, or Maryland colonization. 2 CONT 2 CONT There are two Wagsters in Baltimore. 2 CONT 2 CONT “Baltimore County Families, 1659-1759, by Robert W.

If we ever find Wagster passage records on ships of tha 2 CONC t time, they usually state their condition. 2 CONT 2 CONT Maryland was a plantation colony founded by Lord Baltimore, a prominent English catholic. I 2 CONC t was meant to be a haven for English Catholics who were still being discriminated against i 2 CONC n England. The first settlers, 200 in number, founded Maryland at St Mary’s Catholic Church o 2 CONC n Chesapeake Bay. Lord Baltimore intended Maryland to be a moneymaking proposition. So he s 2 CONC old sections of land and left it up to the landowner to do as he wished, as long as he produc 2 CONC ed a crop and contributed financially. Thus many landowners were absentee. They sent overse 2 CONC ers and indentured servants and later slaves to grow and produce the valuable Tobacco to be s 2 CONC ent back to England. Baltimore from the outset allowed freedom of worship, provided you wer 2 CONC e not atheist or Jewish.

In a charter granted by King Da 2 CONC vid II., page 252 [p.252] lands so called have it spelled Inglynstoun, and in another charte 2 CONC r by Robert II., it is Inglystoun (Robertson's Index of Charters). Pont, in his map drafted b 2 CONC etween 1608-20, spells it "Englishtoun," which cannot be accepted, for it is obviously incorr 2 CONC ect. The surname of Inglis found in Scotland is the root of this error, as the assumption ha 2 CONC s been that it is a corruption of "English"; but opposed to this idea is the fact that althou 2 CONC gh several individuals named Inglis are to be found in the possession of lands at an early pe 2 CONC riod, not one of them is styled of Ingliston or Inglystoun. The Inglises of Manner seem to ha 2 CONC ve been the chief family, and they held the lands of Branksome or Branksholm, afterwards poss 2 CONC essed by the Scotts (Buccleuch). The Ingliston in West Lothian probably got the name from Ing 2 CONC lis of Cra-mond, the first of which family was a merchant in Edinburgh about 1560, the Reform 2 CONC ation time. It has also been overlooked that "English" is a distract English surname borne b 2 CONC y families in England, and any affinity with it and Inglis has no other basis than some simil 2 CONC arity in sound. We still adhere to the same .opinion as given by us in Lands and their Owner 2 CONC s in Galloway, that the farms in Galloway called Engleston or Ingleston have nothing to do wi 2 CONC th the surname Inglis, or as Englishtoun; but were given from the nature or character of th 2 CONC e land, and are from the Norse engi for meadow-land, or a meadow, which is also found in Angl 2 CONC o-Saxon as ing or inge, a pasture, a meadow. 2 CONT 2 CONT A Topographical Dictionary of England: Volume 2 E. 2 CONT Preface page 136 ENGLEFIELD, a parish in the hundred of THEALE, county of BERKS, 6 miles (W. 2 CONC ) from Reading, containing 343 inhabitants. The living is a rectory, in the archdeaconry of B 2 CONC erks, and diocese of Salisbury, rated in the king's books at £11. 12. 8½, and in the patronag 2 CONC e of R. P. W. Benyon de Beauvoir, Esq. The church has some portions in the early English styl 2 CONC e, but has been much modernised: it contains several interesting monuments to the memory of t 2 CONC he ancestors of the Marquis of Winchester. This parish, which is not unfrequently called Ingl 2 CONC efield, derives its name from the Saxon word Ingle, a fire or beacon light, and probably ha 2 CONC d its origin about the middle of the ninth century, at which time the Danes, having made them 2 CONC selves masters of Reading, sent out a detachment from their army to attack the Saxons, who we 2 CONC re encamped at this place, and who drove them back with great loss. Elias Ashmole, the heral 2 CONC d and antiquary, retired to this place in 1647, where he pursued his researches. 2 CONT 2 CONT There were Henry and William who arrived in MD in 1673. 2 CONT 2 CONT History of the United States by George Bancroft (6 Volumes) Volume 1 Part 1 2 CONT The English People Found a Nation in America Chapter 10 Colonization of Maryland In this stat 2 CONC e of uncertainty, Leonard Calvert, the proprietary's deputy, repaired to England to take coun 2 CONC sel with his brother. During his absence, and toward the end of the year 1643, a London ship 2 CONC , commissioned by parliament, anchored in the harbor of St. Mary's; and Brent, the acting gov 2 CONC ernor, under a general authority from the king at Oxford, but with an indiscretion which wa 2 CONC s in contrast with the caution of the proprietary, seized the ship, and tendered to its cre 2 CONC w an oath against the parliament. Richard Ingle, the commander, having escaped, in January, 1 2 CONC 644, was summoned by proclamation to yield himself up, while witnesses were sought after to c 2 CONC onvict him of treason. The new commission to Governor Calvert plainly conceded to the represe 2 CONC ntatives of the province the right of originating laws. It no longer required an oath of alle 2 CONC giance to the king, but it exacted from every grantee of land an oath of fidelity to the prop 2 CONC rietary. This last measure proved a new entanglement. In September, Calvert returned to St. M 2 CONC ary's to find the colony rent by factions, and Clayborne still restless in asserting his clai 2 CONC m to Kent island. Escaping by way of Jamestown to London, Ingle had obtained there a letter o 2 CONC f marque, and, without any other authority, reappearing in Maryland, he raised the standard o 2 CONC f parliament against the established authorities, made away with the records and the great se 2 CONC al, and, by the aid of Protestants, compelled the governor and secretary, with a few of thei 2 CONC r devoted friends, to fly to Virginia. Father White and the other Jesuit missionaries were se 2 CONC ized and shipped to England; an oath of submission was tendered to the inhabitants, but it wa 2 CONC s not subscribed by even one Catholic. After his lawless proceedings, which wrought for the c 2 CONC olony nothing but confusion and waste of property and insurrectionary misrule, Ingle returne 2 CONC d to England. 2 CONT 2 CONT Fairfax and Jost Hite Land Surveys, Shenandoah River, 1734-1735, Frederick Co., VA: 2 CONT 2 CONT [Land grants claimed under the proprietor and Jost Hite unless otherwise noted]. 2 CONT 2 CONT George Ingle, 1,300 acres surveyed 8 November 1735 [no survey No.]. 2 CONT 2 CONT John Ingle, 1,300 acres surveyed 8 November 1735 [no survey No.]. 2 CONT 2 CONT Michael Ingle, 1,300 acres surveyed 8 November 1735 [no survey No.]. 2 CONT 2 CONT Philip Ingle, 1,300 acres surveyed 8 November 1735 [no survey No.]. 2 CONT 2 CONT William Ingle, 1,300 acres surveyed 8 November 1735 [no survey No.]. 2 CONT 2 CONT The above certainly looks like a bunch of brothers to me. 2 CONT 2 CONT The 1880 Sevier Co., TN Census states that the parents of our John INGLE were born in VA. 2 CONT 2 CONT ---------- 2 CONT ID: I11208 2 CONT Name: Paulser Or Polser INGLE 2 CONT Sex: M 2 CONT Birth: ABT. 1735 in Germany 2 CONT Death: 1823 in Tuscaloosa Co, AL 2 CONT NATI: German 2 CONT Military Service: Revolutionary War 2 CONT Immigration: ABT. 1776 Arrived in Colonies 2 CONT Note: 2 CONT [Reynolds.ftw] 2 CONT 2 CONT Jacob Engle and William Engle were both naturalized July 8 1730 in New Jersey.

(Some of these children may have been sons of Matthias RE 2 CONC ES.) 2 CONT 2 CONT The Reece, Reese, Rees, Rhys, Price, or Rice family hails from Wales and descends from the an 2 CONC cient Welch Kings and Princes, who were all native Welchman before the mid 1300's. Rhys or i 2 CONC ts variations are all patronymic short for Ap Rhys meaning the son of Rhys. Rhys and Rees, R 2 CONC eece, Preece, Rice, Price, etc. Information from: " Welsh Surnames" by T.J. Morgan and Pry 2 CONC s Morgan. (University of Wales Press, 1985, ISBN 0-7083-0936-4) call Rhys one of the commones 2 CONC t Welsh names. It sounds, in South Wales anyway, rather like "Rheece" and the medieval scribe 2 CONC s made quite a good job in spelling it as Rees. It was also latinized as Resus as in the cas 2 CONC e of Jeuan ap Resus who thrived in 1352. The Morgans think it probable that Anglo Norman scr 2 CONC ibes on seeing the Welsh version Rhys, pronounced and wrote it as Rice. This explains how on 2 CONC e might be Dafydd ap Rhys one day and plain old David Price the next. A recent visitor think 2 CONC s it possible his family name changed from Rees to Reece when his forebears landed in America 2 CONC . It is certainly true that most of the early forms were written as Rees but there are exampl 2 CONC es of the Reece spelling from at least the sixteenth century. 2 CONT 2 CONT In England at the Castle Dynefyr in Llandeilo, site of much ancient Rhys history (from Rhodr 2 CONC i Mahr on to The Lord Rhys) to a town called Llanwenog there is a church dating from the 13t 2 CONC h century that has a Rhys Coat of Arms on it. Sir Rhys built the tower of the church to comm 2 CONC emorate the victory of Henry Tudor at the Battle of Bosworth in 1485, in which Sir Rhys bor 2 CONC e a very important part, supported by the men of Llanwenog. On the west side over the door t 2 CONC here is a small escutchion with what looks like the Rhys coat of arms, though it is quite age 2 CONC d. Over the window there is a heraldic shield of the early Tudor period bearing the arms an 2 CONC d insignia of Sir Rhys ap Thomas, consisting of "a chevron inter three martlets or ravens wit 2 CONC h legend on a garter." There are some REES names from the 1800's buried in the churchyard. T 2 CONC he address is: The Reverend Delyth Bowen, BA, The Vicarage, Parish Church, Llanwenog, Wales. 2 CONT 2 CONT The documents found in the USA courthouses have the name spelled Rees, Reese and Reece, but w 2 CONC here these settlers signed their name they always used REES as the spelling. Many of their d 2 CONC escendants now use the other forms. 2 CONT 2 CONT Many Quaker families were in the area in VA where we find our REESE family.

Anyhow, accordi 2 CONC ng to local history books, New Castle, DE, was THE major point of immigration for the Irish a 2 CONC nd Scotch-Irish in America. This is about thirty miles from Philadelphia, so Philadelphia bei 2 CONC ng the nearest big city may have been referenced as the point of arrival simply because nobod 2 CONC y would know where New Castle, DE, was. 2 CONT 2 CONT To give a bit of geography, the town of New Castle in New Castle County, Delaware, is locate 2 CONC d on the Delaware Bay, which separates Delaware from New Jersey. There are two rivers that dr 2 CONC ain from the city of Philadelphia into the Delaware Bay, this area is referred to as the 'Del 2 CONC aware Valley.' New Castle County is tall and narrow in shape. It comprises the upper third o 2 CONC f the state of Delaware. From the Delaware Bay to the Maryland line is about ten miles. Fro 2 CONC m there to the Elk River is about two miles, the Elk River drains into the Chesapeake Bay. T 2 CONC he peninsula that separates the Chesapeake Bay from the Delaware Bay is called Delmarva. Ne 2 CONC w Munster lays at the intersection of MD, DE, and PA. New Munster roughly coincides with tha 2 CONC t area which is now the Fair Hill Natural Resource Area. Owing to the shortness of the dista 2 CONC nce between New Castle Town on the Delaware Bay and Head of Elk (modern Elkton) on the Chesap 2 CONC eake Bay, there was a major road (now Rt 40), this road ran all the way from Philadelphia t 2 CONC o Baltimore, and eventually west over the Appalachian Mountains to St. Louis. It was origina 2 CONC lly an Indian Trail. 2 CONT 2 CONT A number of Scotch-Irish, including the Alexander family, who were prominent among them, star 2 CONC ted settling in the New Munster district in the 1680s. More settled slightly west of there i 2 CONC n the Nottingham Tract, while some settled a little southeast in the Welsh Tract (modern DE) 2 CONC . They were Presbyterians, and established two churches just outside of the Maryland state li 2 CONC ne, one in PA, one in (modern) DE. 2 CONT 2 CONT Over the years Alexanders wound up owning a lot of property in Cecil County; during the Ameri 2 CONC can Revolution, Robert Alexander was a Loyalist, and he was hanged on 4 Nov 1778 in Philadelp 2 CONC hia. His property was seized, and was sold to create the town of Elkton. The village of Hea 2 CONC d of Elk had existed for some years before that, his land lay east of it and was divided up i 2 CONC nto lots and sold off, the courthouse stands on his former land. It supposedly contains recor 2 CONC ds dating as far back as 1674, but I have not yet investigated. The Alexander home still stan 2 CONC ds, I've been by there many times. It is called 'The Hermitage' and the eastern part of Ekto 2 CONC n has grown around it. Robert had 9 children. 2 CONT 2 CONT However, while some Alexanders stayed and prospered in early Cecil County, others chose to mi 2 CONC grate to Mecklenburg County, North Carolina, in 1746. Based on info from other sources, it a 2 CONC ppears that members of the Haltom family went with them. Members of the Alexander family wh 2 CONC o remained in Cecil bought the Haltom property when they left. Over the years, additional fam 2 CONC ily members migrated from Cecil County to join their kin in North Carolina, creating a stead 2 CONC y trickle of immigration for some years from Cecil County to western North Carolina."

Cox (editor), page 61 ("Early Virgini 2 CONC a Ancestors of our Cox Family and Their Colonial Cousins," compiled by Mrs. David O. Reichlei 2 CONC n, submitted by Mrs. Opal Cox Avant): 2 CONT 2 CONT Matthew Edloe who had land that was next to land of William Cox in Henrico Co., brought 24 se 2 CONC rvants into the Colony and received 50 acres of land for himself and for each of the 24 serva 2 CONC nts. This made it an easy way for people to get free passage to the Colony. Thus one can fi 2 CONC nd in the records that the wealthiest men in the Colony did bring in people to get 50 acres o 2 CONC f land for each one. Indentured servants were those who had to work for their masters seve 2 CONC n years, room and board, but no pay. 2 CONT 2 CONT When his time was up, his master had to provide him with a new suit of clothing and tools. T 2 CONC he government gave him 50 acres of land. Some of the finest men came over that way, as man 2 CONC y of the prominent families of England sent their younger sons, for their law in England of p 2 CONC rimogeniture favored the first son. 2 CONT 2 CONT England's claim to possession of territory in the New World was based upon John Cabot's succe 2 CONC ss in 1497 of being the first to reach the mainland of America. It was not until almost on 2 CONC e hundred years later that their first attempt at an English settlement was started in Americ 2 CONC a. Queen Elizabeth in 1583 gave Sir Humphrey Gilbert a proprietary patent to go forth and se 2 CONC ttle the New World. The project was a hopeless defeat and ended in Gilbert's death. Then Qu 2 CONC een Elizabeth passed the patent on to Sir Walter Raleigh, half-brother of Sir Gilbert; agai 2 CONC n efforts to establish a colony were a failure, but Roanoke Island achieved fame as the birth 2 CONC place of Virginia Dare in 1587 – the first white child of English parents born in the New Wor 2 CONC ld. 2 CONT 2 CONT After King James of Scotland mounted the English throne, he gave his approval for attempts t 2 CONC o be made to colonize the New World, and granted charters to the newly organized London Compa 2 CONC ny. The London Company offered each subscriber who would pay twelve pounds and twelve shilli 2 CONC ngs the following: "Lord of 200 acres of land which would be given to him and his heirs forev 2 CONC er." Several members of the Bailey family held large shares in this company. The fact tha 2 CONC t Temperance Bailey, at age 3, had 200 acres of land in her name, might have been her inherit 2 CONC ance from her deceased father. Patent to Temperance Bailey, Sept. 20, 1620. The land of Joh 2 CONC n Rolfe and Pocahontas, on the south side of the James River, bordered that of Samuel Jordan 2 CONC , Temperance Baley (Bailey), and Capt. Woodlief in 1620. 2 CONT 2 CONT It was late in December 1606 when the first charter was signed and three little ships left po 2 CONC rt for America. They were the Susan Constant, the Godspeed – on which William Cox came to Am 2 CONC erica – and the Discovery, commanded by Capt. Newport. On board these three ships were 150 a 2 CONC dventurers. On May 6, 1607, they entered Chesapeake Bay, and eight days later decided that t 2 CONC he big peninsula off the River they had named "James" for King James would make a suitable pl 2 CONC ace to live, and they called it "Jamestown." One hundred and five remained when the boats de 2 CONC parted for England. 2 CONT 2 CONT After reaching America the working contracts were opened and it was then that the colonists f 2 CONC ound that the London Company had imposed a serious handicap on them, directing that "all shou 2 CONC ld work for a common store." The majority of the colonists were of the "gentlemen" type; onl 2 CONC y a few of the people knew the meaning of work. For this reason, the Colony did not prospe 2 CONC r at the beginning. 2 CONT 2 CONT In 1609 after a tempestuous voyage, Sir Thomas Gates arrived and found the Colony in a deplor 2 CONC able condition. At this point he gave each man five acres of his own. A constant menace wer 2 CONC e disease, starvation, and massacres by the Indians, which eventually reduced the number to 6 2 CONC 0 people. In desperation, Sir Gates and the colonists started to return to England, but a sh 2 CONC ort distance out, they met Lord Baltimore with 500 people and provisions. With renewed coura 2 CONC ge and perseverance, they worked together to make this a permanent settlement. 2 CONT 2 CONT Before explaining who the settlers were prior to 1700, we give this background history as t 2 CONC o the difficulties and hardships in the establishment of the Jamestown Colony. From this stu 2 CONC rdy stock we descend. 2 CONT 2 CONT The earliest and most successful colony under the Crown was Virginia. The 20 shilling per 10 2 CONC 0 acres reserved by the London Company in 1618 did not become payable until 1625, a year afte 2 CONC r the Colony came under Royal control. No exemptions, no special rates allowed; even the Ind 2 CONC ians were obligated to render some small acknowledgement for their lands. 2 CONT 2 CONT The Assembly in Virginia placed all expenditures of the collected quit rents under its own di 2 CONC rection, and provided that payments be made in tobacco at 3 pence per pound. In 1662, the pa 2 CONC yments in tobacco were at the rate of 2 shillings per pound. 2 CONT 2 CONT The quit rent system of the American colonies was that the Corporations held their lands of t 2 CONC he King by a kind of tenure, and no rent was demanded by their charters, because the latter w 2 CONC ere in origin instruments of trading companies and not of feudal lords. 2 CONT 2 CONT The following is a list of the Quit Rent, April 1705, Henrico County, of the five sons of Joh 2 CONC n Cox [I] of Dutch Gap, Coxendale or Harroeattocks: 2 CONT John Cox, Jr. - 150 acres. 2 CONT William Cox - 300 acres. 2 CONT George Cox - 200 acres. 2 CONT Richard Cox - 300 acres. 2 CONT Bartholomew Cox - 100 acres. 2 CONT 2 CONT The first Cox in our family appears to have been William Cox, Planter, who came to Virginia b 2 CONC efore 1628, and could have been the same William Cox, age 26, who came over in the Godspeed 2 CONC . A land grant of 150 to William Cox, Oct. 29, 1637 in Henrico County, about 2 miles above H 2 CONC arrow Attocks, was granted for transportation of three persons, one of which was Richard Byrd 2 CONC . William Cox appears to have purchased additional land adjoining this patent and owned lan 2 CONC d on both sides of the James River: Coxendale on one side, and Dutch Gap on the other side 2 CONC . William Cox acquired by lease 100 acres of land in Elizabeth City on Sept. 20, 1624. 2 CONT 2 CONT In 1637, William Cox, Elizabeth & ux, were among headright to Matthew Edloe on their return f 2 CONC rom England on July 12, 1637. William Cox died before 1656, for on Dec. 14, 1656, Peter Le 2 CONC e was granted 126 acres of land in Henrico County which adjoined "the land belonging to the o 2 CONC rphans of William Cox." Orphans of William appear to have been Thomas Cox and John Cox [I]. 2 CONT 2 CONT Thomas Cox appears to have moved to New Kent County, for on June 8, 1658, in a land grant t 2 CONC o George Austin, reference is made to land surveyed for Thomas Cox in New Kent County. Thoma 2 CONC s Cox appears to have left a son, William Cox, who is listed in the Quit Rent Roll, 1704, i 2 CONC n New Kent County, as owning 150 acres of land. It would appear that Thomas sold the land in 2 CONC herited from his father, William Cox, to John Knowles, for reference is made in a granted beg 2 CONC inning at a corner of Peter Lee to "land he purchased of Thomas Cox." 2 CONT 2 CONT John Cox [I] who seems to have settled on James River near Harrowattocks the latter part of O 2 CONC ct. 1642 was probably a son of William Cox. On March 29, 1665, 550 acres of land was grante 2 CONC d to Arthur Bayley (Bailey) next to land of Capt. Edloe, that Arthur Bayley sold to William J 2 CONC ohnson, and William Johnson assigned this 550 acres to John Cox [I], also known as John Cox o 2 CONC f Harrow Attocks. Thus, it might be assumed that the first wife of John Cox [I] might have b 2 CONC een a daughter of William Johnson and the mother of his children. John Cox [I] married secon 2 CONC d Mary Kennon, Sept. 25, 1682. 2 CONT 2 CONT William Elam's will, 1688, gives to "son-in-law" John Cox [I] one shilling. The rest to cous 2 CONC in Martin Elam. It is felt that William Elam married the widow of William Cox, who was eithe 2 CONC r the mother or step-mother of John Cox [I], thus John Cox [I] was the step-son of William El 2 CONC am instead of son-in-law. 2 CONT 2 CONT In Feb. 1685/86, John Cox [I] of the 1679 Tithe List conveyed 300 acres to son William Cox th 2 CONC e elder, and 150 ac
