Peelle, Jr. (1944- ) In response to our article on maintaining the Peele Cemetery in NC in the last Lawrence, Etc., RB sends the following note addressing the Rock Stream Cemetery, Rock Stream, NY (near Watkins Glen, on a finger lake, Lake Seneca,) which he maintains: The cemetery was established 1833. It is a beautiful setting, next to a beautiful small white country church and memorial hall. The memorial hall and the church trust fund were given by the Peelle Brothers 1944. My great-grandfather John Peelle (1854-1927) is buried there along with his father-in-law Rev. Charles L. White (1829-1916) and Charles' father Rev. Samuel White (1791-1864). My grandfather Henry E. Peelle (1891- 1977) is remembered there as are four of his five brothers. My father Robert B. Peelle (1919-?) will be remembered there and I will be, and possibly my four sons (Michael Peelle 1974, Beau Peelle 1976, Christopher Peelle 1978, Evan Peelle 1983). There are 20 Peelles remembered there so far. Two of the three cemetery managers are family members. Thanks RB for telling us and maybe one day some of us shall call you to go visit the cemetery. Horace. Cave Dweller John Hollowell (1766-1855) Mary Peelle was born 02 Feb 1742 in Near Rich Square, Northampton Co., NC. She is the 4th child and 2 nd daughter of Robert Peelle (1709-1782, Patriot) and Elizabeth Edgerton (1712-1749) and also Horace’s 5th Great Grandmother. Mary was the sixth generation: (Robert 5, Robert 4, Robert 3, Robert 2, Lawrence 1). and died 11 Jan 1813 in Valeene, Orange Co., IN. On November 1 st , 1760, she married Thomas Hollowell, 5th child of John Hollowell (1695- 1752) and Sarah Rountree (Abt 1700 – 1754?) in Rich Square MH, Northampton Co., NC. Interesting enough, Mary and Thomas were the first to be married in the newly built Meeting House at Rich Square, completed in early 1760. Thomas was born 04 Dec 1739 in Norfolk, VA, and died around December 1822 in Valeene, Orange Co., IN. Both are buried in the Bluff Springs Cemetery, Valeene, IN. Mary Peelle and Thomas Hollowell had eight children and this feature centers around their third child John: 1) Abigail - born 26 Dec 1761 in Northampton Co., NC, married John Spivey, 7 children, died in unknown location. 2) Sarah - born 24 Dec 1763 in Northampton Co., NC, Raiford "Ralph" Fletcher, 6 children, died Marlboro Co., SC. 3) John - born 11 Jan 1766 in Northampton Co., NC, married Miriam Overman, 8 children, died in Orange Co., IN on 06 Feb 1855.

These two articles are quoted verbatim. First Settler Was A Cave Dweller. Orange County history shows the first inhabitant was a cave man. True or False? The answer is true and that fact is not based on paleontology. John Hollowell was the first known white settler in the area which became Orange County and Mr. Hollowell spent some time living in a cave at Valeene exploring the area before he brought his family here. Hollowell became Orange County’s first known settler on June 30, 1807 when he purchased land. He settled on the south bank of the Patoka River, just south of Valeene in the area now the site of the Valeene Christian Church. Early sources indicate that Hollowell first came to the area in 1806. In a genealogy of The Hollowells, written by Lucy Elliott Hollowell, it states John Hollowell, exploring the area, “discovered a small cave in which A cave on the south bank of the Patoka River at Valeene a beautiful spring bubbled forth. was the temporary summer home for Orange County’s He barricaded the cave and dwelt first white settler of record, John Hollowell. Icicles hang from the ceiling. there during his sojourn…” It is believed after his initial visit to the area in 1806, Hollowell returned home to North Carolina for the winter of 1806-1807. The family genealogy indicated the Hollowells resided in the cave on the Patoka while they constructed their new home. Some accounts tell of the Hollowell daughters keeping watch for Indians while the men worked in the fields. Lawrence, Etc. Volume 9 – Issue 4 - 2009 Page 4 of 12 Robert Hollowell soon joined his brother [John] here. Robert purchased land on Nov. 30, 1809. At the same time, John Hollowell added another 30 acres of land to his original 160 acre purchase. Godspeed’s history of Orange County mentions two other early settlers, John Hobson and Robert Breeze. They, however, were apparently ‘squatters’ on government land, or purchased land from the Hollowells, for no purchase transaction in their names was ever entered. In addition to John and Robert Hollowell’s purchase of land in what would become Southeast Township, other early settlers were James Maxedon, who bought land in Orleans in 1809; Jesse Hollowell, Paoli, 1810; and Thomas Hopper, Stampers Creek, 1810.

  • Luke Decker and Slavery: His Cases with Bob and Anthony, 1817-1822
    Luke Decker and Slavery: His Cases with Bob and Anthony, 1817-1822 Merrily Pierce" Luke Decker, farmer, judge, and militia officer, owned and traded slaves in the Northwest Territory, Indiana Territory, and the state of Indiana despite laws prohibiting such practices. As a member of the proslavery element in the Old Northwest, Decker encouraged the establishment of slavery in the territory, a plan that nearly succeeded under Indiana Territorial Governor William Henry Harrison. By the time Indiana Territory was ready for statehood in 1816, however, settlers against slavery outnumbered those, like Decker, who supported it. The institution was outlawed by the 1816 state Constitution, but slavery did not die out. In Knox County, where Decker resided arid slavery was concentrated, some slave owners continued to hold slaves, believing that the Consti- tution was not retroactive. In July, 1816, barely a month after the Indiana Constitution was written, two of Decker's slaves-Bob, nominally an indentured servant, and Anthony, a slave for life-escaped from his possession and fled to Orange County, a Quaker stronghold in the southern part of the state. Decker pursued his slaves and had them cap- tured. Confronted by the Quaker-influenced court in Paoli, he used all of his influence in his determination to regain possession of the two men. Decker's cases were before the court for five years, from 1817 to 1822. Summaries of the court proceedings in early county his- tories and in other accounts attest to their importance.'

The Falls at the Ohio River between what is now Louisville and Clarksville made a rapid descent over a series of ledges formed by Devonian rock rich in fossils. In high stages of water, the falls disappeared completely. During low water times, the whole width of the river had the appearance of a series of waterfalls with great flats of rock beds.

Captain Walter Finney oversaw construction of a square earth and timber work with blockhouses near present-day Fort Street in Jeffersonville. The post was garrisoned by US troops until 1793 but then remained a militia station until about 1800. It was renamed Fort Steuben in 1787 after Baron Friedrich Wilhelm von Steuben, Revolutionary War hero. It was a magnet for settlers, who formed a village immediately around it and were the first residents of the town of Jeffersonville. A historic marker is all that exists at this site.

  • Notes About Scotch-Irish and German Settlers in Virginia and the Carolinas
    Notes about Scotch-Irish and German Settlers in Virginia and the Carolinas Copyright © 2000–2009 by William Lee Anderson III. All rights reserved. Scotch-Irish and German Settlers in Virginia and the Carolinas Introduction During the 1700s many Scotch-Irish and German immigrants arrived in America. They and their children settled parts of Pennsylvania, Virginia, and the Carolinas. Today, most of their descendants never think about their heritage. Most live in the present, are working on real-life problems, or planning their future. That attitude was shared by their ancestor immigrants 250 years ago. Nonetheless, I suspect most descendants have at least wondered what the word Scotch-Irish means. All my life, I have heard various facts, but never understood how they fit together. Some facts appeared contradictory. So, I investigated, and discovered a colorful story that far exceeded my expectations. My principal objectives were to: Understand certain comments made by grandparents and other relatives over 40 years ago. Understand the confusing adjective Scotch-Irish. Understand the confusing cultural icons of bagpipes, kilts, Celtic whistles, etc. Understand the history of Moravian, Lutheran, Mennonite, Amish, Dunkards, Presbyterian, Puritanism, Huguenot, Quaker, Methodist, Congregational, and Baptist denominations that have churches in the Carolinas. Understand why and when surnames became common. Understand ancestor Margaret Moore‘s recollections of the Siege of Londonderry in 1689. Understand motivations of Scotch-Irish and German immigrants during the 1700s and terms of their Carolina land grants. Understand relations between early Carolina immigrants and Native Americans. Understand why Scotland‘s heroine Flora Macdonald came to live in North Carolina in 1774.

  • Has Been Advocated By, Among Others, the Department Of
    A GROWTH CENTER STRATEGY FOR THE UNITED STATES Niles M. Hansen University of Texas This paper proposes a national regional policy based on the development of employment opportunities in intermediate-sized cities, with the condition that a significant number of these opportunities be made available to residents of economically lagging areas. The strategy set forth is based on th®ee propositions, which will be considered in turn. First, it is not generally feasible to base a national regional strategy on the industrialization of rural areas. Second, it is quite possible that our largest metropolitan areas are too big in terms of both economic efficiency and public preferences, so that their growth should be.
