INTRODUCTION

In the search for the author’s ancestor, John Fouch, the 1840 Census was consulted. Six John Fouchs with the same approximate birth year were found in four states. When men of the same name show up in records throughout several states, their parentage can often be determined only by compiling multiple generations using thorough research so an accurate account of each individual can be determined. Hence the beginnings of this book.

There has been much confusion and inaccurate information written about the Fouch family over the years, partly because they were so prolific and gave their children the same names. The fact that they moved from state to state makes sorting the generations even more difficult. Many thanks to Loraine Criddle, whose Fouch Family History Association Newsletter were invaluable in tracking some of the wondering Fouchs. One common trait among the family is that many lived to the age of 95.

Variations of the spelling of the Fouch name throughout the book are done in the way that particular individual spelled his name.

ARRIVAL IN AMERICA

The Fouch story begins when two Fouch immigrants arrived in America aboard a ship named Thomas; Hugh age 17 and Thomas age 16, probably brothers.1 Departing from London on August 21, 1635 with 56 other passengers bound for Virginia, they were “examined by the Minister of Gravesend touching their conformitie in our religion” prior to departure. This questioning indicates they were Protestants because “England was not allowing Catholics into Virginia and all potential emigrants were questioned under oath as to their religious beliefs.”2 Nothing about their parents or family is known at this time but their name implies a French ancestry and was probably pronounced “Foushay.”3

Records are silent on Hugh’s whereabouts for the next seven years. He may have been working off an indenture or simply working to earn money to purchase land. Regardless, life in the Virginia colonies at this time was not easy. Men unaccustomed to work stood little chance of survival. Their workday stretched ten to fourteen hours, six days a week.4 Five out of six persons arriving in the first thirty years of the Virginia settlement died of overwork, exposure to the semi-tropical sun (something called the “period of seasoning”), poor food, disease or Indian massacre.5

Whether Hugh was in Virginia or Maryland during these first years is unknown but a tax list of 1642 shows Hugh ffouch in Kent County, Maryland.6 It is here he met and became the partner of James Macgregor. In July 1650 the two men applied for 300 acres in Northumberland County, Virginia followed by 800 acres a year later.7 Northumberland land patent books show numerous transactions by Macgregor and Fouch which basically reveals they were land speculating. They bought 450 acres in 1653 and sold it in 1658. Their original 300 acres combined with another purchase of 394 acres in 1653 sold in 1658.8 They eventually made their homes on 1280 acres which included the 800 purchased in 1651 plus another 480 in 1661.9 All of this land was along the Chetanck Creek which spilled into the Potomac River.

For this work the name will be spelled Fouch unless referencing a specific source. 4 Russell R.

Tobacco was the chief product for the early settlements, so prevalent it was used as a form of money. On the 21st of November 1653 Hugh ffouch was ordered to pay a Mr. Spoke 1,729 pounds of tobacco.10 And on November 5, 1668 Hugh received 100 pounds of tobacco from the County for shooting a wolf.11 Men often worked in partnership with one another to share the hard work of raising tobacco to gain capital to pay surveyor and clerk fees along with headrights to patent land. On average a man could harvest twelve hundred pounds of tobacco a year.12 The headright system which lasted until the end of the 17th century, said that anyone paying the passage of others to Virginia received fifty acres of land for each immigrant.13 Land records show that Macgregor and Fouch used headrights to gain their land and undoubtedly raised tobacco to pay for the headrights.

Hugh stayed behind in Virginia when his partner, James Macgregor moved to Maryland in 1665.14 Eventually Hugh also moved to Maryland, selling his land in Virginia to Thomas Hughes in August of 1669. His wife, Rosamond is mentioned as consenting to the sale.15 Maryland court records reflect his entry into Maryland as an immigrant to Baltimore County in 1670 under the name “Forth.” He transported his wife, Rosamond and six daughters: Alice, Angell, Ann, Joane, Mary, Rosamond.16

Two years after arriving in Baltimore County, Maryland, Hugh proved a warrant for 650 acres of land.17 This may have included a 250 acre and a 200 acre tract transferred to Hugh from James Macgregor the same year.18 This land was described as “being on the east side of the Choppick Bay in the county of Baltimore [to become Cecil County in 1674] in a river called the Bohemia River.” The tract was known as the “Banks.” While Hugh and James no longer partnered in buying land, they did remain close friends. James named his son Hugh, presumably after Hugh Fouch and in James’ will, dated 1676, he left “my wearing clothes unto Hugh Fouche.”19

Hugh died between July 19, 1702 (the day his will was written) and July 27, 1702 (the day it was proved). In his will he names Henry Watson and son-in-laws, John Bavinton, husband of daughter Mary; Thomas Terry, husband of daughter Rosamond; and William Davis, husband of

Baptism records show that Hugh’s children and families attended St. Stephens Parish in Cecil County from between 1690 and 1717.21

2nd GENERATION

1. HUGH2 FOUCH (Hugh1) - Only two records have been located to prove the existence of Hugh Fouch, son of Hugh Fouch, the immigrant. We’ll label him Hugh2 to distinguish between the two men. The will of Richard Nash in 1680 gives to Hugh Foucke, Jr., 150 acres of land on the Elk River in Maryland.26 Even though the term Jr. doesn’t always mean a son of the so named individual, it does indicate another person by that name existed in the area. Since Hugh Fouch the immigrant was the only person with a surname of Fouch in Cecil County, it is a reasonable conclusion that Hugh, Jr. was his son.

In 1724 Thomas Terry, a son-in-law of Hugh the immigrant, filed a petition to resurvey land and stated in this document that the land was willed to him by Hugh Fouch who inherited it from his father Hugh Fouch. The third generation of Fouchs also supports this hypothesis as the third Hugh3’s birthdate falls within the same time frame.

3rd GENERATION

In Loudoun County Virginia six Fouch men show up in early records. HUGH3 FOUCH, born 1696, appears to be the patriarch of this family.31 His father is not given in any of his records, but he is most likely the grandson of Hugh the immigrant for several reasons: • Hugh the immigrant would have been 78 years old when Hugh3 was born in 1696. While that is possible, it is not probable. • Daughters of Hugh the immigrant married and their children were born within the same time frame as Hugh3 making him more likely to be a cousin to their children than an Uncle. These facts suggest there was an individual between Hugh the immigrant and Hugh,3 most likely Hugh2 Fouch named in the second generation above.

Hugh3 Fouch’s first appearance in Virginia involves a number of Fairfax County court records between 1752 and 1756. Sometimes he is the plaintiff and sometimes the defendant. These lawsuits involve trespassing, money owed, and being ordered to inventory and appraise an estate.32

Court indentures show that in April 1753 Hugh Fouch leased land in Fairfax County (later to become Loudoun County) from Ann Mason, widow of George Mason.33 Land in Virginia at this time was used in much the same way as the manor lands in England. The wealthy bought land and leased it to those unable to buy. Virginia leases were for either 21 years or 3 lives (Father, wife and son).34 While Ann Mason did not live in Loudoun Co. she bought thousands of acres there as an investment for her younger two children’s inheritance.35

Hugh3 leased 150 acres of land. The deed specifies it “to be laid off in the form of a square including the dwelling plantation… paying yearly on the first day of December the rent of six hundred and thirty pounds of tobacco.” It also states that no “waste of any sort of timber… fit for carpenters or coopers use or rails should be cut down in clearing ground.” Within the span of seven years a “framed dwelling house at last sixteen feet square with an outside chimney and one well framed tobacco house or barn at least thirty-two feet long” needed to be constructed. Hugh3 was also required to plant 100 apple trees and 200 peach trees within the seven year span.36

Several other men made leases with Ann Mason on the same day for varying amounts of acreage for whom Hugh3 signed as a witness. Samuel Mobley (Mobbily) appears with the Fouchs in a number of these leases.37

Hugh3 died 29 September 1780. In his will he names his wife Mary [Perkins] and four sons, Isaac, Abraham, Jacob and Jonathan.38 John Fouch seems to be related in some way, but the scant records don’t make this clear. When the Revolutionary War ended, the call of new lands seemed to temp all but Isaac who stayed in Loudon County. The other sons moved to different states.

4th GENERATION

32. ISAAC4 FOUCH (Hugh3) the oldest son of Hugh Fouch was born 1721 in Loudon County and first shows up in the Loudoun County tithable list in 1761 under Col. Thos. Lud. Lee’s tithables. “Tithables were taxes collected to support the Anglican parish vestry in Virginia prior to the American Revolution. The amount was generally paid in pounds of tobacco.” Men over the age of 16 were included in this tax, with sons showing up under their father’s name.43

Based on the birth of his first child, Isaac married Mary McDowell sometime between 1753 and 1754. He was in his early 30’s and she was around 18.44 In May of 1760 Isaac purchased 220 acres of land that he had been leasing from Catesby Cocke. “They would spend their entire adult lives in Loudoun County,” an unusual situation for the roaming Fouch family. “The area in which they lived was known as “The Kingdom” in the 19th century and early 20th century for relatively wealthy families such as the Shreves, Elgins, Hawlings and Dulins who were neighbors of Isaac and Mary. Their children would marry into some of these families. The Fouch home was on the Southern fringe of “The Kingdom,” although that name may not have been used at the time.” There they raised their twelve children.45

The main road in front of their place is now called Evergreen Mills Road. In the 18th century it was known as the Carolina Road and during the 19th century it was the ‘Old Carolina Road.’ This road was the major north-south road in the colonies… prominent because there were no major rivers to ford or ferry.”46

Isaac died 17 July 1794, his wife surviving him by 30 years. In his will, he divided his property between four of his sons, and then specified they each pay the two remaining brother’s fifteen pounds to compensate for not receiving land. Mary died 30 September 1824.47 Children of Isaac and Mary (McDowell) Fouch all born in Loudoun Co.:48 37. i. Thomas5 Fouch b. 22 July 1755 38. ii. Jemima5 Fouch b. 20 July 1757 39. iii.

33. JACOB4 FOUCH (Hugh3) Not much is known about Jacob Fouch. He was born about 1740 and obviously close to John4 Fouch, possibly a cousin. The two boys got into trouble during their teens and were taken to court for stealing iron pot, a shave and a colter from Sarah Orton. They appeared, gave a testimony and were discharged without penalty, probably because they returned the items.49 In 1769 Jacob appears as a witness to the will of John’s father-in-law, Samuel Mobley, which is the only reference to Jacob’s wife, Alice.50

There is a reference to a Jacob Fouch who fought in the Revolutionary War as a captain for a Pennsylvania regiment. It is not known if this is the same Jacob Fouch.51

Jacob appears sporadically in the Loudoun County tithable lists from 1762 to 1785, possibly because of incomplete lists. In 1762 he appears by himself, not under his father Hugh, meaning he would have been living on his own and possibly married about this time. By 1779 his son Isaac appears on the list with him. 1785 is the last time Jacob’s name is given as a tithable.52 The 1787 Virginia State census shows him owning 2 horses and 3 cattle. He disappears from the records after that so he may have died or moved to another location. No death record has been found for Jacob.

34. JONATHAN4 FOUCH (Hugh3) was born before 1743 in Loudon County. He first appears on the tithable list in 1759 under his father.57 The last time he is mentioned in Loudoun County is the tithable list for 1769 where he is living on his own, probably married.58 He then disappears from Loudoun County records.

Nine years later, a Jonathan Fouch appears in land entries for Tryon County, North Carolina purchasing 100 acres on the East side of the Little Broad River from the State of North Carolina for 15 shillings.59 In 1779 Tryon County was abolished to become Rutherford County and again Jonathan Fouch appears, this time purchasing 50 acres on both sides of the Second Broad River.60 In 1783, he sold the 100 acres on the East side of Little Broad River for 40 pounds.61 Most likely this is the same man from Loudoun County as the 1790 U. S. Census shows only one Jonathan Fouch, the man in North Carolina.

Rutherford County court records Jonathan appointed as a constable in 1782.62 The tax list for that year show him having one horse and two cows on 100 acres.63 By the 1790 U.S. Federal Census, he has ten individuals living in his household, 1 male over 16 (Jonathan), 3 males under 16 (his sons, William, John and Elijah), and 6 women (his wife and probably 5 daughters). By comparing the 1790, 1800 and 1810 census family dynamics emerge. Jonathan was around sixty years old in 1800 with no female the age of his wife, which assumes she had probably died. Sons William and John had their own households, but son Elijah, age 18, was still living with Jonathan. Two more sons age 10-15 and three daughters, age 10, 10-16 and over 16 complete the family. In 1810, Jonathan at age seventy, had a female between the age of 26 and 44 and a male child under the age of 10 living with him. They were probably his oldest daughter and her son. Jonathan’s son’s William and Elijah lived nearby.64

Jonathan Fouch appears in a Tennessee military bounty land warrant #436 in August 1820. He swore before Justice of the Peace, Edmond D. Tarver that “he knew Brutis Johnston was a ‘musition’ in Captain Major’s company, 10th Regiment and died in service.” Edmond Tarver and Josiah Baird, another Justice of the Peace, “say they know and believe Jonathan Fouch.” Most likely this is Jonathan b. 1743 and not his son, since the father would be of an age to know

35. ABRAHAM4 FOUCH (Hugh3) was Hugh’s youngest son, born before 1746 in Loudon County. He first appears on the tithable list for Loudoun County in 1762 under his father. He would have been 16 years of age at the time. By 1764, he is living on his own. Between 1769 and 1780 Abraham worked for others appearing on their list. His last appearance in the tithable list is 1785.70

Abraham does not show up in land records, but is quite frequent in court records, usually for swearing. In one entry of the Fairfax County court of 18 May 1773, it says he was brought before them for “swearing four profane oaths in the Parish and county of Fairfax to wit ‘By God’ four times within two months last.”71 In Loudoun County Court order books he is written up in 1778, 1780, and has two law suits – once in 1783 and again in 1784. His last appearance there in court is 1787.72 He also appears on the 1787 census for Loudoun County with one horse.

Somewhere around this time Abraham left the area. Before doing so though, he married the widow, Nancy Sedgwick.73 Based on the births of his children, this was his second wife.

From here, no records specifically say where Abraham went. Reading an accounting of his oldest son, John’s travels, tells what may have happened. According to the History of Early Settlers of Sangamon County, Illinois, John went from Virginia to Fayette County, Kentucky where he stayed for several years and then about 1807 again moved to Indiana. Unfortunately, there are no census records for 1790, 1800, or 1810 in Kentucky and Indiana to prove this. Abraham’s nephew was living in Kentucky about this time and they may have settled there based on the nephew’s recommendation. Abraham does show up in the 1820 census in Jennings, Fayette County, Indiana.74

A will probated 20 August 1822 in Fayette County, Indiana names Abraham Fouch but his wife is named as Christiana, possibly a third wife. It also names his children.75

36. JOHN4 FOUCH was born around 1744 in Loudoun County, Virginia (previously Fairfax Co.)80 His parentage is not known. It is possible he was the son of Hugh Fouch – the only Fouch living in Loudon Co. at the time old enough to be his father. However, the four sons Hugh names in his will do not include John. Even though John’s age coincides with Hugh’s named sons and he shows up in Loudoun Co. records simultaneously with these men over a span of thirteen years81, the fact that he wasn’t mentioned in the will raises the possibility he may not be a son of Hugh.

Several things suggest John was related to Hugh and his sons in some way. • These six men are the only Fouchs listed in Loudoun Co. records. • The tithable lists indicate they are living in close proximity. • John and Jacob are charged together as teenagers for stealing an iron pot, a shave and a colter. They appeared in court, returned the items and were acquitted of the charges.82 This theft suggests a certain comradery between the two boys and it could be, if not a brother, then John was a cousin raised by Hugh.

John Fouch is listed on tax records for Loudoun County quite regularly from 1760 to 1771, usually close to Samuel Mobley.83 Samuel Mobley’s will of 1769 mentions a daughter, Susannah Fouch.84 Marrying before 1769 would place Susannah’s birth before 1749 (if age 20) but possibly up to 1751 (if age 18). She was not married to Jacob Fouch because he and his wife, Ann, are named in Samuel Mobley’s will. She was not married to Hugh or Isaac Fouch because their wives are given in other records.85 The only Fouchs in Loudoun Co. whose wives are not known are John and Jonathan. It is most likely she is John’s wife because: • In his will, Samuel Mobley gave Susannah land in Maryland and records place John in Maryland. Jonathan moved to North Carolina.86 • Both of John’s sons name a daughter Susannah (see below). • Living near Samuel Mobley would have given John a chance to court Susannah.

In May of 1772 John Fouch is listed in the Loudoun County Order Book for road repair under Overseer Joseph Stephens.87 After that he disappears from Loudoun County records. He does not appear in any of the death records.88 With Maryland being just across the Potomac River from Loudoun Co., Virginia, there was much travel back and forth between the two states. The Quakers in the area held monthly meetings alternately between Frederick Co, Maryland and Fairfax, Co., Virginia.89 Some individuals read their marriage banns in one state and married in the other.

Maryland would be a logical place to look for John and this is substantiated by his son, Abraham. In the 1850 and 1860 Federal censuses at the age of 85 and 92 respectively, Abraham Fouch gives his birth place as Maryland.90 Since we know John Fouch was living in Loudoun Co., Virginia until 1772, Abraham would have been approximately four or five years old when they moved. It is likely that Abraham was born in Virginia but grew up in Maryland, something an eighty five year old memory could easily get confused.

An extensive search of Frederick County, Maryland records turns up three accounts listing John Fouch. In 1787 John Foutch married Catharina Specht at the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Middletown, near Frederick, Maryland with Graff, Specht and Foutch for a witnesses.91 Another listing in 1787 for the same church gives Heughey Foutch married to Elizabeth Johnson with witnesses: John and Mary Foutch, probably the groom’s parents and possibly the John Fouch of Loudoun Co., Virginia.92 The fact that John now appears with a wife named Mary could mean he remarried or Susannah could be Mary’s middle name. The 1790 Federal Census for Frederick County, Maryland lists only one John Foutch.93 Is it the man from Loudoun County or the groom of 1787? Most likely it is the groom since he resided in Maryland and had two young children who are represented in the 1790 census. The 1800 and 1810 censuses for Frederick County, Maryland list no John Foutch.94 Prior to 1819 the groom of 1787 migrated to Ohio with his family.95

Complicating the search in Maryland is a family with the surname of Fouts, a variant for Fouch. Records for the Fouts family have been ruled out by tracking their records using an unusual given name of one of their members: Baltus Fouts. This family remained in Frederick County, Maryland at least through 1830, the year Baltus Fouts died.96

Many families from Maryland relocated to Pennsylvania. The completion of the Braddock Road in 1755 and the treaty with the Indians in 1767 opened up territory in Pennsylvania for people to migrate from Maryland to Somerset County, Pennsylvania, formed from Bedford Co.97 In 1792, John Foutch applied for a land warrant of 200 acres in Elk Township along “the waters of the Piney Run.”98 He never patented it. John’s lease was patented in August of 1803 by David Miller, who also moved to Somerset from Frederick Co., Maryland.99 The only other man in Somerset County during this time period with the Fouch surname was Abraham Fouch. Records show Abraham Fouch, selling 225 acres in Elk Lick Twp. upon which the taxes remain unpaid as of 1803, which could indicate John had died.100 Most likely he died sometime before 1796 in Somerset County, Pennsylvania.101

5th GENERATION

37. THOMAS5 FOUCH (Isaac4, Hugh3) was born 22 July 1755 in Loudon County. As the eldest son of Isaac, Thomas first appears on the tithable list in 1773. He is living on his own by 1782.105 A request for a marriage license was taken out 8 June, 1779, with permission given by the bride’s father, John Combs, but the marriage between Sarah Combes and Thomas Fouch took place in Bedford County, Pennsylvania on 15 June 1779.106

Thomas and Sarah lived all of their lives in Loudoun County. He inherited 50 acres of land from his father along the South side of the Seconnels Branch.107 “Thomas was evidently quite affluent. He was involved in many land transactions and financial loans, and he purchased Holyfield, a lovely 18th century home, for the family residence, which stands today. He was listed as a vestryman of Shelburne Parish between 1771 and 1806.”108

Census records support his affluence. In 1810 he owned 2 slaves by 1820 he had 7 slaves. His sister Mary lived next door in 1810. Son Amos lived next door with brother Jonathan a few doors away in 1820.109 Thomas died 27 July 1828.

39. WILLIAM5 MCDOWELL FOUCH (Isaac4, Hugh3) was born 20 July 1759. He first showed up on the tithable list in 1779 under his father and was listed until 1783.112 The 1787 census shows him with one horse. William did not inherit land from his father, but instead was instructed to receive 15 pounds each from his brothers George and Daniel in lieu of land. “After the [Revolutionary] war, William McDowell Fouch is documented in Knox Co., Tennessee. In 1802, he won a judgement against Abraham Swagerty. The Knox Co. court ordered the sale of Swagerty’s 640 acres in Anderson Co. to satisfy Fouch’s judgement.”113

At what point he moved to Kentucky is not known but at least by 1810 William was living in Fleming County, Kentucky. That census lists him with his wife and six children, three boys and three girls. His oldest son William, Jr. was in a separate household nearby with his young family. In 1820 his wife and four children are with him.114 The only reference to his wife is in his will where he calls her Triny, possibly a shortened version of her given name. It mentions all of his children, except William, Jr. William died between 7 August, when his will was written, and 3 October 1825, when it was proved.115

41. ISAAC5 FOUCH (Isaac4, Hugh3) was born 15 February 1763 in Loudon County. Named after his father, Isaac appears on the tithable list with him in 1782.120 He married Nancy Coxen Hawling 23 September 1792.121 Isaac also received money from his father in place of land. Brothers Thomas and Jonathan were to give him 15 pounds each. At his father-in-law’s death in 1794, Isaac received from him, a slave named Molly, a white horse, 6 hogs, 3 sheep, two steers and a variety of household items.122 Isaac died 28 February 1795 in Loudoun County.123

42. ELIZABETH5 FOUCH (Isaac4, Hugh3) was born 25 June 1768 in Loudoun County. She married Charles Russell. Her brother, Thomas, “gave $50 security for the administration of Charles Russell estate” 22 October, 1822.124 The 1850 census for Loudoun County shows Betsy Russell, age 83 as head of the house. The age fits with her birth and she had three daughters living with her as well as her nephew, Eden Fouch. The prior census in 1840 gives an age appropriate accounting with the same family make up. Included in the 1840 household were four slaves.125

Elizabeth died before the 1860 census, which finds her three daughters living together. They never married. In 1860 their real estate was valued at $1,200 but personal property was valued at $21,000, most likely slaves. Four domestics lived with Jane and Eliza in 1870 and may have been former slaves from 1860. Sidney Fouche lived with them as well. In 1880 Jane is the sole surviving sister living next door to Sidney Fouche, a young married man.126

43. JONATHAN5 FOUCHE (Isaac4, Hugh3) was born 25 February 1771 in Loudon County. Not much is known about Jonathan’s life prior to his move to Georgia. He married Tabitha Simpson, who was born July 1780 in Culpeper County, Virginia, so possibly they were married there and moved shortly afterwards.129 His inheritance from his father was 50 acres, so that might have provided him funds to purchase land elsewhere.

The lure of Georgia’s land lottery might have been a draw. “Eight times between 1805 and 1833 Georgia held lotteries to distribute land” taken from the Creek and Cherokee Indians. Jonathan and two of his brother’s may have gone to Georgia hoping to get free land. “The land to be distributed was surveyed and laid out in districts and lots. The surveyors sent the district and lot numbers to the governor’s office. Eligible citizens registered their names in their county of residence… Anyone who received a Fortunate Draw could take out a grant for the lot he drew, after paying the grant fee” of $19.130 Since their son was born in Georgia in 1806, they were there at least by then. Jonathan did not get land in the 1805 sale.

He did own property by this time, as Jonathan is mentioned in a newspaper Sheriff’s sale on the 4th of August 1810: “One hundred and sixty five acres of land (more or less) situate in Wilkes county, on the waters of Fishing creek, with the improvements thereon, adjoining Mrs. A Springer and others; it being part of the same tract whereon Jonathan Fouch now lives; taken to satisfy an execution against said Fouch, in favor of Joel Glass – pointed out by said Fouch.”131

The 1820 census of Wilkes County, Georgia shows Jonathan, his wife, one male 10-15 (his son) and nine slaves. A year later Jonathan applied for the 1821 Georgia lottery and won lot 5, section 10 in the Mirees Military District of Wilkes County. By 1830 he had eleven slaves.132

Jonathan died 24 September 1830 without a will. His son, Simpson was the administrator of his estate, posting bond. His household effects were sold on 7 July 1832 with family bidding for

44. GEORGE5 FOUCH (Isaac4, Hugh3) was born 7 May 1773 in Loudon County where he married Susanna Moss 13 April 1796.135 He inherited 70 acres of land from his father, but sold it before going to Wilkes County, Georgia with his brothers, Jonathan and Daniel, sometime between 1801 and 1804.136 The 1820 Wilkes County census shows George with his wife, three sons and four daughters. He owned 3 slaves at the time.137 He died at the age of 51 on 21 December 1824. Each of his children received an inheritance of $118.07 from his estate.138 After her husband’s death, Susanna and her two youngest sons moved in with her oldest son, Thomas.139

45. DANIEL5 FOUCH (Isaac4, Hugh3) was born May 1777 in Loudon County, the youngest child of Isaac and Mary Fouch. He married Sarah Hawling in Loudoun County 22 January 1801.146 He inherited 70 acres of land of his father’s property, but sold it just before following his two brothers to Georgia. He died at the age of 41 in 1818 mentioning his wife and five children in his will.147 His widow, Sarah, appears in the 1830 census with her three youngest sons and a total of 14 slaves.148

46. ISAAC5 FOUCH (Jacob4, Hugh3) was born around 1763 based on when he appears on the Loudoun County tithable list under his father Jacob in 1779.151 By process of elimination of all other Isaac Fouchs, this man is most likely the one who married Mary Steadman August 12, 1816.152 No other information on him was found.

47. JACOB5 FOUCH (Jacob4, Hugh3) was born about 1766 and married Penna McDaniel in Loudoun County 1 March 1786.153 He and his brother married sisters. Jacob received a gift of land and household items from his wife’s father, George McDaniel, in 1793. The deed mentioned his father-in-law living with them.154 An index card for the War of 1812 shows a Jacob Fouch who served with the 56th Regiment in the Virginia Militia as a private.155 It is not known if this is the same man as this subject.

48. JAMES5 FOUCH (Jacob4, Hugh3) was born 1773 in Loudoun County, Virginia. His parentage is uncertain. Location and circumstances point to William5 McDowell Fouch as James father, but William would have only been 14 years old at his birth. Nothing is known about Abraham4 Fouch’s first wife, so there is a slight possibility James could be Abraham’s son, except that Abraham names his children in his will and James is not included. The best match for a father given James birth date and location is Jacob4 Fouch, so that is where James has been placed until future research proves otherwise .

James followed William McDowell Fouch’s family to Fleming, Kentucky where he married Elizabeth Beatty 22 March 1803.156 He then moved to Bath County, Kentucky where land records show James purchased 109 acres there 1 July 1814.157 The 1820 census shows him living in Bath County with his wife, and her sister, and 6 children, three boys and three girls.158 Between 1833 and 1835, James sold his land and moved to Rush County, Indiana by 1840 where he is found living near two of his sons.159 James died 12 June 1847 and is buried in the Goddard Cemetery in Rush County along with other members of the Fouch family.160 The 1850 census shows Elizabeth living with her sister Barbary and Kathrine Fouch who may be a daughter.161 No death record for Elizabeth was found.

49. MARY5 FOUCH (Jacob4, Hugh3) married Elijah Brooks March 27, 1793 in Loudoun County.166 The 1810 and 1820 census show Elijah Brooks living in Loudoun next to his brother- in-law, Jonathan Fouch. They had 4 girls and 3 boys, but the names of their children are not known.167 Mary died at the age of 95 on March 9, 1865 in Fairfax, Virginia.168

50. JONATHAN5 FOUCH (Jacob4, Hugh3) married Chloe McDaniel, the sister of his brother’s wife, on May 6, 1795 in Loudoun County, Virginia.169 He appears on the 1810 and 1820 census living in Loudoun County, next to his sister, Mary, and her husband. They had 4 girls and 3 boys, but the names of their children are not known.170 There is no female the age of Chloe in the 1820 census so she may have died before then. No death record has been found for Jonathan, so he may have migrated to another state.

51. WILLIAM5 FOUTCH (Jonathan4, Hugh3) was born about 1765 in Loudoun County, Virginia and traveled to North Carolina with his father. He married Mary ( ? ) in March 1794.171 Three years later he purchased 100 acres on the Rocky Branch of Sandy Run.172

Sometime between 1810 and 1814 William and his brother Elijah moved to Smith County, Tennessee.173 It may have been because their father had died, or it may have been because North Carolina was offering land grants in Tennessee, or it may have just been the Fouch wonder lust to move on. Or all three. His land purchase of 72 ½ acres was in November of 1814 with his brother-in-law, Hugh Bradley as witness.174

The 1840 census shows William still living in Smith County with his wife and youngest son, Elijah. By 1850, William, age 85, was living in his son Elijah’s household, his wife having

He married Sarah ( ? ) around 1804.179 The 1810 census shows them with three children living near his father and brother William.180 In 1809 Elijah purchased 160 acres of land from his brother, William Fouch. He expanded his holdings in 1811 with a grant from the State of North Carolina for 50 acres.181 His sale of these lands has not been found, but he followed William to Smith County, Tennessee by 1816 where he purchased 150 acres for $75 at the head of Cany Creek, followed by 33 acres along Hicklands Creek in 1817. Witnesses to this were his two brother-in-laws, Hugh Bradley and Levi Herrol.182 Elijah died 12 September 1837. His estate was inventoried in November of that year and can be seen in the Smith County Inventories.183

53. JONATHAN5 FOUTCH (Jonathan4, Hugh3) was born 1775 in North Carolina. He first appears in the 1800 census under the name of John with a wife, both age 25-26.187 In 1807 Jonathan bought 150 acres in Rutherford County under the name of John. It can’t be his brother’s sons named John because they were just 1 and 3 years old. He sold the land in 1810.188

It would make sense that Jonathan followed his brothers William and Elijah to Tennessee. At some point he purchased 37 acres in Wilson County, Tennessee next to Isaac Winston, which he sold in 1837. That deed showed a signature meaning he could read and write. He also purchased another 25 acres from Isaac Winston in 1816 for $75. In 1828, when Isaac Winston went to sell his land he noticed that John Fouch’s 1816 purchase was vacant, so he asked to include it in his 130 acre sale. Jonathan relinquished his claim to the land.189

Using his neighbor, Isaac Winston to locate Jonathan (alias John) Fouch in the 1830 census, he was found living in Wilson County next to Isaac but the name is unreadable. It looks like John Push. There were seven members in Jonathan’s family for that year: he, his wife, four sons and a daughter. The 1840 census can be clearly read with John Fouch living near Isaac. This census shows him between 70 and 80 years (he should be around 65), his wife between 60 and 70 years and two sons, age 5-10 and 20-30. No record of him after 1840 has been found.190

Using Foutch family members who purchased items from Elijah’s estate in January of 1838, it is possible to eliminate known children of William and Elijah leaving the remaining two unaccounted names as likely sons of Jonathan.191 An 1828 deed names two other sons of John Foutch.192

55.

Hugh died in 1851, Nancy lived until 1865. They are both buried in the Old Bradley Cemetery in Ridgeway, Gallatin County.202

57. JOHN5 FOUTCH (Abraham4, Hugh3) was born 31 January 1778 in Loudoun County, Virginia. He “went to Fayette County, Ky., when he was a young man,” which is where he married Nancy A. Wherrett in 1796.203 Based on the births of their children, they lived near Lexington, Kentucky for about eight years, then moved to Dearborn, Indiana for approximately ten years and finally ended up in Sangamon, Illinois, “arriving in the fall of 1825.”204 “The journey to the new home was made with an ox-team and consumed twenty-one days. The route lay through a wilderness with here and there a section that had been opened up to settlement and the family slept in the wagon or under a tent at night.”205 The following year he purchased 80 acres in Township 15N, in Sangamon206 where he “erected a log cabin which was afterward supplanted by a commodious brick house.”207 It is possible he was living with his oldest son, Abraham in 1840.208 Nancy died March 12, 1845. John died September 15, 1848. They are both buried in the Foutch cemetery at Island Grove in Sangamon.209 His will names his second wife, Cecelia Harmon and six children.210 Cecelia was living with his daughter Mary on the 1850 census.211

59. WILLIAM5 FOUTCH (Abraham4, Hugh3) was found in the 1850 census living next to his brother, Thomas. He was born about 1805 in Kentucky. From the family dynamics it is not clear if he had three children living with him or a daughter and two grandchildren, Elizabeth age 25, Matilda J. age 2, and Sarah E. age 2 months.213

60. THOMAS5 FOUTCH (Abraham4, Hugh3) By process of elimination of the other Thomas Fouchs living at this time, most likely this Thomas Foutch was the man who was born in Kentucky about 1806 and married Elizabeth George January 26, 1832 in Washington County, Indiana.214 Thomas was a farmer and appeared in the 1850 and 1860 census for Brown, Washington County, Indiana with his family.215 An 1863 tax assessment shows him owning a stallion, but no land.216 He died January 11, 1866. Elizabeth died May 6, 1872. Both are buried in Hop Cemetery in Campbellsburg.217

Conrad and Maria Elizabeth Specht.221 According to an online unsourced family history, “John Fouche met Catherine while he was apprenticed as a miller for her brother John Conrad,” who owned a mill along Tuscarora Creek in Pleasant View, Frederick County.222 The 1790 census shows them living in Frederick, Maryland with two children at the time.223

Sometime between 1815 and 1819, John moved to Pike Township in Wayne County, Ohio with his son David.224 Based on the ages given in the census, both families were living together in 1820.225 John died in Clinton Township, Wayne County, sometime between 10 December 1828 when he wrote his will and 19 March 1829 when his son applied for administration rights.226 After the death of her husband, Catherine lived with her son, David’s family. She died sometime after 1850.227

64. ABRAHAM5 FOUTCH (John4, possibly Hugh3) was born 9 November 1767, probably in Loudon County, Virginia. He married Nancy Findley, daughter of Samuel Findley, in Somerset Pennsylvania around 1796 based on the birth of their first child.231 Most likely Abraham moved from Maryland to Pennsylvania with his father in 1792. He appears there on a tax list in 1796.232

“The entire region was densely wooded and in the early years afforded shelter to game of all kinds. The pioneers were generally adept in the use of the rifle and found no difficulty in procuring fresh meat at nearly all times of the year. But in other respects, they were not so fortunate. They were in the midst of a lonely wilderness without any roads except bridal paths to connect them to the outer-world… Only the rudest kinds of farming implements were in use; hoes and forks manufactured by the blacksmith, wooden plows, wooden harrows… were the chief tools. Flax and woolen goods; home-made moccasins and shoes made by some itinerant shoemaker and buckskin pantaloons were the clothes worn. Furniture was scanty and simple; benches, tables, and bedsteads were made by settlers themselves....”233

Living in this wilderness, the 1800 census for Somerset County shows Abraham, age 33 at the time, with a wife and 2 children. Their home was a 12 x 12 log cabin.234 Abraham lived in Elk Lick Township but appears to have attended the Union Church in Greenville Township since two of his children were baptized there in 1800 and 1804.235 An 1860 map shows a road running across the mountain between the location of his father’s property in Elk Lick Township and the Union Church in Greenville.236 Around 1813, Abraham moved his family to Greenville Township. This was also the time when a log meeting house was erected for church services and served as the school.237 Abraham may have wanted to be closer so his children could attend.

The 1830 census shows Abraham, age 63, living with a daughter and her children.238 His wife may have died, but an 88 year old woman named Anna Fouch was living with Abraham’s son Samuel in 1860.239 It is possible they divorced. For 20 years Abraham lived by himself in

65. HUGH5 FOUTCH (John4, possibly Hugh3) who sometimes shows up as Heughey was born about 1768. He married Elizabeth Johnson 7 May 1787 in Frederick County, Maryland.242 They appear in Maryland in the 1790 census.243 By 1810 Hugh had moved to Berkeley, Virginia (now West Virginia) where he and his wife had two sons and four daughters.244 His first wife must have died because he married second to Elizabeth Kister in Berkeley Virginia 2 October 1817.245

Morgan County was formed from part of Berkeley County in 1820, so for the census of that year, although most likely he did not move, Hugh was living in Morgan County with his wife, a teenage son, a teenage daughter, and a daughter under 10 years of age.246 By 1830 he had three more children by his second wife, two boys and a girl.247 Hugh died sometime after 1830. No death record has been found.

66. JAMES5 FOUTCH (John4, possibly Hugh3) was born between 1766 and 1770 in Virginia.251 The Fouch Family Newsletter says 18 December 1769.252 There is no documentation to suggest his parentage, but his birth date puts him in a generation to be a child of one of the five sons of Hugh3. The Genealogy and Personal History of Fayette County, Pennsylvania says that James was from Hampshire County Virginia which is now West Virginia.253 There was only one Fouch living in the West Virginia area and that was Hugh5 son of John. It would not be hard to imagine that James might have migrated there with his brother Hugh5. James named his oldest son John which could indicate his father.

On 19 March 1793,254 “he married Sarah Custer, whose parents gave her a grey horse and one sheep as dowry. With this start in life the young couple came to Fayette County, Pennsylvania and settled in George’s township… He was a blacksmith, a farmer and also a preacher of the German Baptist Church.”255 They were in Fayette County at least by 1800 when James appears on the Pennsylvania Septennial Census.256 The 1820 census shows them with six children, two girls and four boys.257 James was a large land owner. His “Home farm” contained 109 acres, his “Bottom farm” was 112 acres and another property called “McCormick farm” had 81 acres.258 James died in May 1850. His will specified that six of his surviving seven children were to get 50 acres of land, omitting Absolom.259 Sarah lived to be 92 years old, living with her daughter Hannah and then son Jeremiah.260

6th GENERATION

68. ISAAC6 FOUCH (Thomas5, Isaac4, Hugh3) was born 3 October 1780 in Loudoun County, Virginia. He was mentioned in his father’s 1825 will as being “late of Kentucky.” That fits with Isaac Fouch who married Betsy Jackson in 1813 in Jefferson County, Kentucky, who is probably this man.269 He may have gone to Kentucky with his uncle William McDowell Fouch and cousins James and William, Jr. The 1820 Kentucky census for Jeffersontown in Jefferson County shows a man Isaac’s age with a wife and three children.270 Since two of the children were teenagers, his marriage to Betsy must have been a second marriage. The Fouch Newsletter says Isaac’s first wife was Sarah Violett [Turner].271

After that Isaac disappears from Kentucky. A man named Isaac Fouch, the same age, shows up in Morgan County, Ohio in the 1840 census with six children living with him. He was still living there in 1850 with presumably a daughter, Rachel, age 21 and a grandson named Isaac.272

An Isaac Fouch fought in the War of 1812 and his pension record was applied for from Morgan County, Ohio in 1854. It is most likely the Isaac Fouch of this sketch, as the details match, but the birth dates are off by 8 years. The man in the pension was born 1787, which the man in this sketch according to the family Bible was born 1780. It is possible whoever wrote the names in the family Bible was off by a few years. Isaac the pensioner enlisted in Loudoun County at Leesburg 28 August 1812 for five years. He served as a private under Capt. Haynes in the U.S. Light Dragoons. The records describe him as 5 ft. 10 ¼ inches, blue eyes and fair complexion. His occupation was a baker.273

He “received a wound on his left arm with a sabre or sword on the elbow joint” on 29 May 1813 at Sackets Harbor, New York. This “disabled him to a great extent and from the effects of said wound his arm has been ever since out of place and crooked.” He was discharged 31 August 1813. This fits with his returning home and marrying Betsy Jackson. For his service he received bounty land in Illinois 16 February 1818.274

No death or probate record for Isaac has been found. He may have gone from Morgan County, Ohio to Kendal County, Illinois. An 1850 census record shows an Isaac Fouch, age 79, living with his nieces, Rebecca Fouch and her sister Sarah Fouch Ball’s family. At first it seemed like

it could not be the same man since he was living in Morgan County, Ohio in 1850, but the census in Ohio was enumerated September 11th and the census in Illinois was enumerated September 28th, so he could be one of those people who moved and were counted twice.

“Amos acquired a great deal of Loudoun County land. His parents gave him acreage in 1821 ‘in consideration of their natural affection for their said son, Amos Fouch and the better to enable him to provide for the support and education of his children.’ When his brother Temple, of Prince [Co.]., purchased or was given most of Thompson’s Loudoun Co. property which went to his siblings.”286

He died of consumption on 11 Dec 1859 in Loudoun County.287 It appears he did not leave a will since the Sheriff of Loudoun County was his administrator. His personal effects were sold off on June 25, 1860 with Eleanor purchasing most of the furniture and a lot of the farm equipment.288

By 1850 William was living in Rush County, Indiana with a daughter, Isabella.332 This has to be the same man from Fleming County, Kentucky because the only other William Fouch born in 1785 or 1786 lived in Ohio and died in 1849. William was still living with his daughter in 1860 and son Obannion, but this time in Shelby County, Indiana.333 No death record has been found.

Catherine died sometime between 1850 and 1852 after which Daniel married Rebecca Johnson in Boone County, Indiana 6 September 1852, a woman 20 years his junior.353 They had seven more children. Daniel was alive on the 1870 census, but no death record for him has been found. Rebecca may have remarried because no record of her appears in the census after 1870 and no death record was found.

78. JOHN6 FOUCH (William5, Isaac4, Hugh3) Not much is known about this John. He was probably born sometime between 1801 and 1805, based on the birth of his first child. The 1830 census shows him living in Eastern Division of Fleming County, Kentucky which is where his older brother William lived. He was shown as age 20-29, with a wife and three children - one boy and two girls.360 The Fouch newsletter names his wife as Catharine and after his death in 1830, she traveled with her children and John’s brothers to Indiana.361 Census records confirm that. In 1840, Catharine is in Rush County, Indiana where her brother-in-law, William is living. She has the correct number of children in the correct ages. She must have been pregnant with a fourth child when John died because there are four children with her, two boys and two girls.362 The 1850 census gives names to those children.363 In 1860 Catharine was living with her son and his family.364 She was still alive in 1880 living with what appears to be a grandchild.365 Catharine died at the age of 83, 22 February 1883 in Clinton Co., Indiana.366

82. SIMPSON6 FOUCHE (Jonathan5, Isaac4, Hugh3) was born 21 September 1806, the only child of Jonathan and Tabitha Fouch. They used his mother’s maiden name for his given name. At the age of 20 Simpson attended the newly opened University of Virginia. Thomas Jefferson charted the university in 1819 but the official opening did not occur until 7 March 1825 with five professors and a few dozen students. Simpson attended the following year until 1828 studying Ancient and Modern languages, Mathematics and Law.371

“After his years at the University, he returned to Wilkes County [Georgia] and taught school there. He married Sarah Elizabeth Ball 10 October 1832. He and his family moved around from county to county in Georgia, presumably teaching school most of the time, although he was also a member of the bar. While living in Crawfordsville, Taliaferro County, he ran for the State Legislature, but was defeated by Alexander H. Stephens, who later became Vice President of the Confederacy.”372

Floyd County, where Simpson lived, was formed from Cherokee lands. He “founded the

“During the late 1850’s he became politically active in encouraging Georgia to secede from the Union. He was elected to the Georgia Legislature from Floyd County and represented his county at the State Convention that was held in Milledgeville on January 16, 1861. It was at this convention that Simpson Fouche cast his ballot for Georgia to secede from the Union. Although he did not fight in any military battles, he carried the rank of full colonel.”375

Simpson died 2 April 1885, Sarah died 1 February 1895. He and his wife are buried in the family plot at Myrtle Hill Cemetery in Rome, Georgia. 376

88. GEORGE6 WASHINGTON FOUCHE (George5, Isaac4, Hugh3) was born 1 November 1814 in Georgia. The 1840 census lists George as head of household living with his mother in Monroe, Georgia, owning 12 slaves. They were two doors from Alfred Drake, father of Louisa F. Drake, who George married November 13, 1845.391 A year later on 8 June, George W. Fouche was appointed a post master for Culloden, Monroe County.392 In 1860 George and his growing family lived in Crawford County where he farmed with 11 slaves. After the Civil War he moved to Pike County and remained there the rest of his life.393

Besides his dwelling house, George owned five tenement houses. He died 25 June 1887 and left one tenement house each to his children. His son George H. must have had some sort of handicap, because he makes provision for him in the will to be cared for and states son George to be “incompetent to transact business.”394

He was a farmer owning one slave.401 The family moved several times during their lives, probably because he served first as an overseer, then farm laborer after the Civil War. They lived in Marion County, Schley County, then Chattahoochee County and back to Marion.402 He died at the age of 91on 18 March 1899 and was buried beside his wife in the Tazewell Cemetery in Marion County.403

The Township of Wild Cat in Tipton County, Indiana opened for settlement after 1847 with “the first road through Wild Cat surveyed in the year 1849.” “The town of Windfall [in Tipton Township] was laid out by James B. Fouch… [He] located at this point for the purpose of engaging in the lumber business and platted the village in order to secure a station on the C.C.& I.C. [railroad] which had been surveyed through the county in the year 1852. He erected a large saw mill in 1853 and had the lots surveyed the same year.” His mill “was a successful operation … and did a large business, having been extensively patronized by the citizens of Wild Cat and surrounding townships. It was burned about the year 1858 and another operation mill took its place the year following. The second mill was erected by Fouch also, and stands in the southwest part of the village. It was operated as a saw and grist mill”435 for corn and wheat. From information given on census records, it appears that James employed several family members to help run the mill.

James and his family lived in Wild Cat on the 1860 census, but for what ever reason, he returned to Rush County before the 1870 census where he built a “large and well-equipped flouring mill”

101. WILLIAM6 E. FOUTCH (William5, Jonathan4, Hugh3) was born 2 March 1795 in Rutherford County, North Carolina.445 He married Sarah Welch sometime around 1820.446 They appear on the 1830 census with five sons and one daughter, Sarah being slightly younger than William. Sarah died about 1834 and with a house full of children, William married Hettie Bradley one year later.447

Around the time of his marriage to Hettie, William purchased 85 acres of land along Hilton Creek in what was then Cannon County, Tennessee which would become DeKalb County in 1837. He purchased another 270 acres in 1839.448 These are a close match to the acreage he was assessed for in 1862.449 The 1850 and 1860 censuses show a grouping of Fouch families all living close together, William three of his brothers and several of his sons.450 As a farmer his main crop was corn which shouldn’t be too surprising since he raised cattle and pigs.451

Hettie died before the 1870 census when William, age 75, had his daughter’s family and youngest son living with him.452 He died 13 April 1874.453 William’s will stated his land should be divided equally between his children. Apparently, the children could not agree on how that division should take place because a court case arose, recorded on 32 pages of probate records, with one half of his children suing the other half over 450 acres of land.454

106. ELIJAH6 FOUTCH (William5, Jonathan4, Hugh3) was born about 1816 in Smith County, Tennesse. He married Jane ( ? ) and they lived near the rest of his brothers on a farm in DeKalb County, Tennessee.486 He owned 118 acres and raised pigs like the rest of the family.487 He died July 1870.488

107. JOHN6 S. FOUTCH (Elijah5, Jonathan4, Hugh3) was born 27 June 1805 in North Carolina. He married Mahala Butler, about 1832.489 He probably traveled to Tennessee with his father as a young boy and appears on the 1850 census as a wagoner living in Gibson County, Tennessee with wife Mahala, also born in North Carolina, and four children.490 John’s family appears to be living with or on the property of James Bratton’s family.

John’s first wife must have died, because he married Emily Braden (Bratton) in Gibson County with the Justice of the Peace on 9 June 1855.491 It has to be the same man because he was the only John Fouch living in the county at the time, plus his family was living with the Bratton family. The 1860 census shows John with Emily, his three older children and a two year old son, Sam. While John was actually 50, he gave his age as 46, probably to appear younger. Emily was age 19.492

Sometime before 1870, John moved to Madison County, Tennessee. He and Emily now had 5 children.493 Emily died 17 April 1879 of typhoid pneumonia.494 The mortality schedule says she had lived in Madison county 20 years, which coincides with their move there sometime after 1860. One Foutch genealogy book says John died 31 October 1894.495 Settlement papers show his son Sampson as administrator with a date of Oct 1896.496 There was no will.

109. JOEL6 DYER FOUTCH (Elijah5, Jonathan4, Hugh3) was born about 1816 in Smith County, Tennessee. He married Eliza McHenry in Wilson County, Tennessee on 18 February 1844 and they would live in Wilson County the remainder of their lives, raising a large family.509

“Joel was known as a wizard with his orchards. His farm was beautiful during his lifetime. He particularly liked wild meat and set traps and hunted for sustenance. During the Civil War he made shoes for both sides of the conflict. He felt the cause was not worth fighting for.”510 He also supplied 450 pounds of hay to the Confederate Army during the Civil War.511 Joel died sometime around 1890.512

110. WILIAM6 D. FOUTCH (Elijah5, Jonathan4, Hugh3) was born about 1818 in Smith County, Tennessee. Based on the birth of his first child, he married Lavina Creech sometime around 1836.514 Why he followed his cousin to DeKalb County remains a mystery, but his father was no

longer living and he may have wanted a change. He is found in the 1850 census with his wife and six children living next to William E. Fouch b. 1795 (#99).515

This brings up the question as to whether he might be confused with William E. Foutch b. 1821 (#280) and actually be the son of William b. 1795 rather than Elijah. Both William E. b. 1821 and William D. b. 1818 show up in DeKalb County on the 1850 census. But William b. 1821, the supposed son of William b. 1795, is living in a different district. With men by the same name so close in birth dates, it would be easy to confuse them during research, except for the difference in their wives and children’s names. Until further research can prove different, for now, we will leave William D. b. 1818 as the son of Elijah.

William D. and his wife, Lavina moved to Gallatin, Illinois by the 1860 census.516 Their family had grown to 9 children by this date. They stayed in this County for 20 years moving to Jefferson County, Illinois by 1880, possibly to be near his brother David.517 According to an unmarked grave listing from Jefferson County Historical Society, William died 6 June 1881.518 Nothing further was found on Lavina.

111. DAVID6 W. FOUTCH (Elijah5, Jonathan4, Hugh3) was born about 1820 in Smith County, Tennessee. He fought in the Mexican American war between 1846 and 1848 with the 1st Tennessee Mounted Infantry after which he joined his cousin John H. Foutch in Hamilton County, Illinois.519 They are found living in the same household on the 1850 census.520

The name of David’s first wife is not known, but she may have died in childbirth. He married second, Rebecca George 10 April 1857 in Jefferson County, Illinois.521 Two months later, he purchased 240 acres of land in Jefferson County, possibly bounty land for his military service during the Mexican American War.522 When the Civil War broke out he again enlisted this time in Company A of the 53rd Illinois Infantry.523 “In applying for pension, several persons confirmed that he was healthy and a hard worker in the harvest prior to being drafted in the Civil War at age 45. At New Bern, NC in June 1865 he contracted chronic diarrhea and complained of his side for the rest of his life. From that time on, he could not perform manual work again. During the winter of 1889-1880, while visiting with relatives in Clinton Co. IL, he became very ill with pneumonia and an abscessed liver.”524 David died 30 January 1880 and is buried in the Gaston Cemetery in Grand Prairie Township, Jefferson County.525

After Herrod’s death his children seemed to have scattered. In 1870 Mary Steelman Foutch was living with her father, Lewis Newsom, and a daughter, age 4 and a son age 8.530 She may not have wanted to raise her stepchildren. Most of Herrod’s older children were married by that time, but the youngest, Martha, was living with her older sister Margaret.531

He did have a value of $50 for farm implements.536 By 1860 he owned $1000 value in real estate, although he doesn’t appear in the land records for that county. At some point between 1860 and 1870, Allen moved his family to Roaring River in Barry County, Missouri.537 He again owned no land.

Allen disappears from records after that, most likely having died. No death record for him has been found. In 1880 his wife was living in Mineral Spring, Missouri with her two youngest sons and a daughter, keeping house for miners.538 Mary, age 74, was living in Arkansas with her son Thomas on the 1900 census.539

During the first few years [John] did teaming and any other work he could find by which to earn an honest dollar, while endeavoring to cultivate the land he had obtained and bring it to a condition that would supply his wants.

Peebler and family started west in 1836. They arrived in Carthage [Illinois] during the Morman trouble and after stopping there a short while decided to move on. However, fear of Indian trouble further west decided them to stop for a while at Ft. Madison [Iowa, on the Mississippi River]… Two months later the family came on to Fairfield [Jefferson County, Iowa].”580 The 1840 census shows them living in Jefferson County (then Indian Territory) with two other adults and 6 children.581

“Samuel S. Peebler bought a tract of land east of Fairfield in 1843. Peebler built a house, partly of brick and partly of wood, to be used as a trading post. A large vault was made in the basement. In connection with the trading post, the government gave Mr. Peebler the right to give out homesteads.”582 The date on this newspaper is a few years off because the Bureau of Land Management says Samuel purchased 160 acres 1 December 1841.583 David Peebler purchased a tract the same day and may have been the other family living with Samuel on the 1840 census. Samuel died 14 May 1842 and Dorothy died a day later.584 The children were placed with relatives to raise.585

131. DAVID6 FOUTCH (Thomas5, Abraham4, Hugh3) was born 16 April 1836 in Indiana.612 Different sources give conflicting information about David’s birth. Census records all agree he was born in 1836, as well as his Civil War draft registration. His grave is the only thing that lists his birth as 1839, and could have been incorrectly given by a family member. Also, his birth location is consistently given on the census as Illinois. However, his father did not appear to have lived in Illinois, and the Civil War draft registration lists his birth location as Indiana.613

David married Mary Thompson 17 January 1860.614 Two years later on 9 August 1862 he enlisted in the 66th Indiana Infantry and served during the Civil War in Company A. He was mustered out 3 June 1865 in Washington, DC.615 After the war, David returned to Brown,

132. NANCY6 ELLEN FOUTCH (Thomas5, Abraham4, Hugh3) was born about 1842 in Washington County, Indiana. At the age of 16 she married Flint W. Hardy on 27 March 1858.620 They lived in Salem, Indiana for a few years where he was a machinist, before following her sister, Cornelia to Iowa where Flint became a farmer.621 No records on Flint or Nancy were found after 1870, in Iowa or other states. It is possible he died and she remarried. The 1885 Iowa State Census lists a Nancy Hardy, widow living with a Rosalia Hardy, but there is nothing in the record to tie her to our subject.622

133. JOHN6 FOUCH (John5, John4, possibly Hugh3) was enumerated in 1820, between 26 to 44 years old with a wife and four children all under age 10.623 Following he and his family through the 1830 census in Frederick, Maryland,624 at some point he migrated to Ogle County, Illinois. On the 1850 census in Illinois, we learn he was born around 1787 in Maryland, his wife’s name was Mary, and he had eight children.625 This coincides with his grave record that says he was born 7 October 1787. He died in Ogle County 9 January 1858.626 Find a Grave gives his wife’s name as Mary Smith.

135. CATHARINE6 FOUCH (John5, John4, possibly Hugh3) was born about 1792. She married Richard Skaggs 15 December 1808 in Frederick County, Maryland.628 Richard appears on the 1830 and 1840 census for Frederick County in District 3.629 He and Catharine had nine children, three girls and 6 boys. The age brackets on those census, correspond to the ages on the 1850 census that names Catharine.630 Richard is not present in 1850, so he most likely died. No death record was found for either Catharine or Richard.

136. MARY6 FOUCH (John5, John4, possibly Hugh3) was born about 1794 in Maryland and married Samuel Lukingbeal (Lukenbill). Samuel served for two months in the War of 1812, being drafted in Baltmore, Maryland 2 September and discharged 29 October 1814. He served in Captain John Funston’s Co.632 Based on their children’s birth’s, sometime between 1825 and 1831 they moved to Montgomery County, Ohio. They had 4 children at the time, two girls and two boys.633 The 1860 census found them living by themselves.634 Mary died 3 September 1864 and sometime after that, Samuel moved to Iowa.635 He returned to Montgomery County, Ohio around 1872 when he applied for his War of 1812 pension. Samuel died 27 March 1880 in Dayton, Ohio and his will named his children.636

He went to Wayne County, Ohio with his father sometime between 1815 and 1818 settling in Pike Township.637 There on 15 February 1818, David married Lettisha Wells.638 His father gave him 50 acres of land 17 May 1820 in Wayne County, which became Holmes

Both were buried in the Ripley Cemetery, Holmes county.642 David’s will lists his children, several of whom he had lent money to during his lifetime.643 He specifies each one as a daughter or son, but the last two children named are not specified as his children even though they did receive an inheritance and lived with him from at least the time they were 8 years old. They may have been a niece and nephew.

139. LYDIA6 FOUCH (John5, John4, possibly Hugh3) was born about 1801 in Maryland. She married Enoch Critchfield 28 June 1821 in Wayne County, Ohio.647 The 1830 census shows them living in Ripley, Holmes County, Ohio which would have been near her brother, David.648 They had four children at the time, one daughter under age 5 and three sons. Lydia married a second time 27 August 1848 to John Brainard, so presumably Enoch had died sometime prior to

140. RUTH6 FOUCH (John5, John4, possibly Hugh3) married Henry Atkinson (Akison) 20 October 1825 in Holmes County, Ohio.652 The only record found for them was the 1840 census for Holmes County. They appear with 4 children, all daughters.653

141. JOHN6 FOUCH (Abraham5, John4, possibly Hugh3) grew up in Somerset County, Pennsylvania where he was born 11 June 1797. He married Susanna Philippi on 9 July 1826.654 She was the daughter of George and Christina Philippi, a family who had long been in Somerset County. The 1830 census shows John living near his father in Greenville Township, but in 1837 he warranted land in Milford Township adjoining property of John Philippi, his wife’s brother.655 It may be that Susanna wanted to live near her family, because when she died of fever in September 1849, age 45, John moved back to Greenville Township to live near his father.656

The 1850 census lists John and his three oldest sons as laborers.657 Sometime between 1850 and 1856, John migrated to Holmes County, Ohio. What took him there is only speculation, but he could have been influenced by neighbors who went before him. At th age of 60, he married a second time to Elizabeth Farver on 31 September 1857 in Holmes County.658 William Farver,

142. SAMUEL6 FOUCH (Abraham5, John4, possibly Hugh3) was born 18 March 1800 in Greenville Township, Somerset County, Pennsylvania,664 where he married Catharine King.665 In 1826, Samuel purchased 100 acres of land from his father in Greenville Township.666 The family lived there until 1834 when he and his brother-in-law jointly purchased 285 acres in Milford Township from his father-in-law, William King.667 Census records reflect that Samuel and his family moved to Milford Township where they lived through 1860.668 In 1863, Samuel sold his property, but no record of Samuel or Catharine has been found after that date.669 They may have moved. No death records for either exist in Somerset County.

She married Daniel Wilhelm, prior to her 18th birthday.671 They are possibly the young couple living with Peter Wilhelm in the 1820 census for Greenville Township.672 Based on the births of their children they moved to Allegany County, Maryland between 1825 and 1829 where they would live the rest of their lives.673 The 1840 census shows them with 6 children, four boys and two girls.674 Daniel died sometime before 30 December 1854 when his estate was probated. Elizabeth declined to be the administrator.675 The 1870 census finds Elizabeth, listed as insane, living with her unmarried son, Benjamin.676 That could mean she had dementia and not necessarily mental issues. Benjamin’s sister and family are also living with them. No death record was found for Elizabeth, but she disappears by the 1880 census.677

144. SUSANNA6 FOUCH (Abraham5, John4, possibly Hugh3) was born 19 March 1804 in Greenville Township, Somerset County, Pennsylvania.683 Based on the age of her oldest child, she married Solomon Fair (Fahr), born about 1800, sometime between 1821 and 1825.684 Solomon appears on the 1830 census living in Greenville Township next to Abraham and John Fouch.685 They had three children at that time, a boy and two girls. The family moved to Holmes County Ohio before the next census and Solomon and Susanna now had five children.686

Susan died sometime between the 1840 census and Solomon’s marriage to Elizabeth Winkelssleck 8 September 1842.687 Solomon’s appearance on the 1850 census gives the names of two of Susan and Solomon’s children.688 Their son Alpheus was living next door.689

John was born in Virginia about 1800 and married Margaret Danner in Frederick County, Maryland 13 July 1824.700 He is shown in the 1830 census for Frederick County, the appropriate age of around 29, with a wife and two children under the age of 5.701 A man matching his family ages and dynamics shows up in Muskingum County, Ohio on the 1840 census.702 The 1850 census reveals the full family living in Tipton County, Indiana.

151. JOHN6 FOUCH (James5, John4, possibly Hugh3) was born 2 March 1797 in Virginia. He married Experience Freeman 4 February 1818.706 Based on his children’s birth locations John moved from Fayette County, Pennsylvania to Highland County, Ohio with his brother George between 1838 and 1840.707 At the time he had eight children, three daughters and five sons.

“John traveled alone to Hamer Twp… and purchased 130 acres of land from John Nevin, Sr. just north of the town of Danville. He built a log cabin near a spring, planted peach trees and waited for his family. Experience and her “married daughter” drove two teams of horses pulling covered wagons from near Allentown, PA to Highland Co., OH. The son-in-law and an older son drove some stock and walked… Since Julie Ann was born in 1840, her mother may have been pregnant during that drive.”708

The family lived in Hamer Township, the rest of John’s life where he died 23 May 1877.709 The 1880 census shows Experience living with her son, Ellis after John’s death.710 No record of her death was found.

UNCONNECTED FOUCH LINES

Some early Fouch family are difficult to place because census records from 1800 – 1840 only show unnamed children. The people below probably connect through some of those unnamed individuals, but without detailed records, it is impossible to identify their parents. Further research at a later date might be able to link them to the proper family line.

600. JOHN5 FOUCH married Esther Tyton 2 December 1806 in Washington County, Ohio.739 A newspaper announcement says they were both of Wood County, Virginia (which today is West Virginia).740 The date of their marriage would put John’s birth about 1787 which means he would be in the 5th Generation. A John Fouch of the correct age is found on the 1820 census for Wood, Virginia with a wife, age 16-25, and four children: one daughter and three sons.741 A James Fouch born in Wood County, was most likely one of those three sons.

601. JAMES6 FOUCH was born between 1817 and 1818 in Wood Co., Virginia.,742 most likely the son of John and Esther (Tyton) Fouch above. He married Mary Cline 19 November 1838 in Muskingum County, Ohio.743 A man fitting this description appears on the 1850 census in Hardin County, Ohio as a farmer.744 He stands out on this because of his unusually named sons.

Family lore says he disappeared when his youngest son, John, was very young.745 This story fits with James since he appears to have run off and enlisted in Company F, 6th Regiment of the Iowa volunteers. He was discharged from that service on June 4, 1862 only to re-enlist on July 28, 1862 at St. Louis, Missouri in Company I of the 31st Missouri Infantry. Perhaps he knew he was sick, since only a year later on July 28, 1863 he died of consumption in a division hospital in Memphis, Tennessee.746

602. JOHN5 FOUCH was born 15 January 1788,750 possibly the son of Jacob Fouch (#47) who married Penna McDaniel in 1786 since none of their children are known and John named his first son Jacob. Census records say John was born in Pennsylvania. He is found on the 1830 census for Adam Township, Muskingum County, Ohio, age 42 with two teenage sons and two females age 20-29.751 Another Fouch in Muskingum County during 1830 is Jacob born between 1791 and 1800, possibly John’s brother.752 Nancy Fouch, who married Mount Zion Watts and died before 1828, is a possible sister to the two men since Mount Zion is found in Muskingum County as well (see below).

The 1850 census puts names to people living in John’s household.753 Sarah Minick, age 50, most likely John’s cousin and daughter of Mary and George Minnick. Since her parents died young, Sarah could be one of the females living with John on the 1830 census. Savilla (Silvia) and Elby (Elba) Fouch were John’s youngest children. It is assumed the other Fouch men living in Muskingum county were his sons, although they could be children of his brother Jacob as well. John died in Muskingum County 24 August 1856.754 His youngest son Elba was 18 at the time and was required to select a guardian for himself. Elba chose Stiles Hanks who came from Virginia and had been a neighbor of John’s in 1830. No family connection was detected.755

498. JAMES6 W. FOUCH (John5) was born 12 January 1828 and may be a cousin of James Fouch (#159) since both lived in Muskingum County, Ohio. He married Mary Jane Jameson in Muskingum County 16 April 1850.763 James started out as a farmer but moved to Knox County,

603. NANCY5 FOUCH was born between 1795 and 1799 in Loudoun County, Virginia.768 She married Mount Zion Watts in Loudoun County 6 September 1815.769 They had four children under the age of 10 living with them on the 1820 census. Having only been married 5 years, they could have been theirs, but it seems more likely that this was a second marriage for Mount Zion and at least one of those children was from a first marriage. Nancy and Mount Zion probably moved to Muskingum County, Ohio with her brothers because Mount Zion appears there in the 1830 census living near John Fouch.770 Nancy must have died a few years after their arrival because Mount Zion married Mary Ann Turner 13 January 1828.771 The names of their children are not known.

604. WOODARD6 FOUCH was born about1800,772 most likely the brother of William (below) since the two appear in the 1830, 1840 and 1850 census records together. Jerimiah Fouch, age 25, and wife Elizabeth were also living nearby in 1850, so he may be another brother, especially since Woodard named his oldest son Jeremiah. The 1850 census record says Woodard was born in North Carolina, but documentation proves William was born in Virginia, so it is more likely

Woodward was born in Virginia as well. It is possible that Woodard, William and Jeremiah were sons of either Jacob (#47) or Jonathan (#50).

Woodard married a woman named Manny.773 In 1830 they were living in Washington County, Virginia with three children.774 They moved to Lee County Virginia by 1840 and then on to Harlan County, Kentucky by 1850.775 Woodard was a cabinetmaker by trade, but probably farmed as well, maybe as a tenant farmer since he moved so often. He was finally able to purchase 10 acres of land on the West side of the Cumberland River on 27 September 1852.776 After that Woodard disappeared from the records. It is not known if he moved elsewhere however his children remained in Harlan County, so he probably died.

605. WILLIAM6 FOUCH was born about1811.778 He was most likely a brother of Woodard (above) since they show up together on the 1830, 1840 and 1850 census. William married Rachel in Lee County, Virginia, about 1840 whose maiden name was also Fouch.779 Prior to his marriage, he was found living in Lee County with a man born 1761–1770 and a woman born 1781-1790, most likely his parents, whose ages fit with Jacob (#47) or Jonathan (#50).780

Based on the births of his children, William moved to Harlan County, Kentucky with Woodard and another possible brother, Jeremiah between 1845 and 1847.781 Rachel died 29 November 1855, after which William married Elizabeth Harris in 1859.782 At some point the family again moved, this time to Breathitt County, Kentucky. For some reason, William’s children were living with other families in the 1860 census.783

William enrolled in the Civil War November 1863 under Captain Cockerell’s unit, Company I of the 47th Regiment of the Kentucky Infantry. William contracted camp cough from which he died 29 February 1864. Elizabeth died a month later, leaving William’s youngest son Benjamin, under the age of 16, needing a guardian. Numerous affidavits were taken for Benjamin to get a pension and appoint William Spencer guardian in 1868. William Spencer said that William Fouch “lived upon one of his farms and was in his employ for many years.”784

606. THOMAS6 FOUTCH was born about 1808 in North Carolina,787 making him a grandson of Jonathan (#34). While his parentage is not known, Elijah (#52) has an unknown son which could be Thomas as Thomas’s birth date fits nicely into the list of Elijah’s children. Thomas married Caroline Reed 19 July 1835 in Rutherford, Tennessee.788

Like many other Fouch family members, Thomas moved around a lot. He and his family appear on the Cannon County Census for 1840 with three children.789 Based on the birth locations of

607. LORINDA7 FOUCH was born about 1824 in Kentucky.795 Her father is unknown, but her mother Mary ( ? ) Fouch was living with her on the 1860 census. Mary was born 1789 in Virginia and died 7 September 1874.796 Based on her location in Tipton County, Indiana in 1860, Lorinda may have been descended from Hugh Fouch (#65) or James children, Daniel (#95) or James (#99).

Lorinda married Powhattan Dodd in Hamilton County, Indiana 22 September 1846.797 She died before 1875 when he married Mrs. Elizabeth Tingle 10 September 1875.798

608. MARY6 LYDIA FOUCH was born 2 October 1841.801 Her marriage record says she was born in Fleming County, Kentucky and her death record says she was born in Indiana. Most likely it was Kentucky because she lived all of her life in Kentucky. The census records support Kentucky as a birth place. Her parents were most likely William Fouch ( #74) and Lydia Christie as they were in Fleming County, Kentucky and have three daughters shown on census records whose names are unknown.

Mary married Samuel Keal in Fleming County 20 August 1856 at the age of 16.802 Shortly after their marriage they went to Rush County, Indiana where her father had moved along with several other siblings.803 Samuel enlisted in Company A of the 40th Indiana Infantry during the Civil War.804 However, they must have preferred Kentucky because they returned there by 1870, where they lived for 28 years until Samuel’s death 9 May 1898.805 Afterwards, Mary went to live with her son Walter, and followed him to Grant County, Indiana where she died 19 May 1929.806

609. MALINDA6 FOUCH was born in Pennsylvania sometime between 1819 and 1823, based on the birth of her first child. Because of the unusual name of her daughter, Experience, she could possibly be the daughter of John Fouch (#151). Her first marriage was to Joseph Smith about 1842.810 It is not known if Joseph died, or if they divorced, but Malinda married Daniel Workman in Highland County, Ohio 16 September 1849.811 The 1850 census shows Malinda as wife of Daniel with three children named Smith.812 Daniel was seven years younger than Malinda. If she was 30 years old as stated on the 1850 census, she would have been 16 when her oldest child was born and 14 or 15 when married. That is not unheard of, but it is not the norm. Far more likely she lied about her age to make herself appear closer to Daniel’s age.

Daniel and Malinda had four more children by the 1860 census. Malinda died 28 September 1863 and was buried in the Workman Cemetery in Danville, Ohio.813 Five months later, having a houseful of children, Daniel married widow Louisa Gossett, another woman six years his senior.814 They moved to Iowa by 1870.815
