  • THE Great Contribution Which the Scotch-Irish Have Made To
    COLONEL JAMES BURD IN THE FORBES CAMPAIGN HE great contribution which the Scotch-Irish have made to our country has been the subject of much discussion. We Tsometimes forget, however, the many sturdy sons who came here directly from a Scottish home. James Burd was one of the lat- ter. Born of good parentage in 1726 near Edinburgh, he came to Philadelphia in 1748. Here he became a merchant and by marriage allied himself with three of the most influential Pennsylvania fam- ilies—the Shippens, the Willings, and the Aliens. These families were friends of the proprietaries, and Burd was soon given important assignments in provincial affairs. In 1752, he moved to Shippens- burg, a frontier village where he managed a plantation, aided Ed- ward Shippen, his father-in-law, in his fur trade, and soon had his finger on the pulse of international affairs in the Indians' land. He became agent for William Allen who was gathering supplies for Braddock's army} he was one of five commissioners named by Gov- ernor Morris to survey a road; and the responsibility for its con- struction rested almost entirely on Burd. Always inadequately equipped and provisioned, Burd cut the road through sixty-five miles of wilderness country in ten weeks' time. This first road to the west was traveled by pioneers to the Ohio country, and in the later terri- torial dispute between Virginia and Pennsylvania, Burd's Road helped bind the Monongahela country and the Pittsburgh district to Pennsylvania.* Entering the provincial service as a captain, January 17, 1756, Burd was commissioned a colonel by August 18, 1758.

Edward Shippen Burd's grandfather, Col. James Burd (1726-1793), was born near Edinburgh, Scotland, and settled on a farm in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, after his marriage in 1748 to Sarah Shippen, a member of the prominent Shippen family of Lancaster and Shippensburg. He joined the military as an officer at the outbreak of the French and Indian War, eventually earning the rank of colonel by 1758. From 1756-1757 he was in command of Fort Augustus, near Shamokin, Pennsylvania, and from 1764-1770 he held the office of Justice of Lancaster County. In 1774, a year before the outbreak of hostilities with Great Britain, Col. Burd was instrumental in garnering local support for the colonial congress in its opposition to the Crown, and by the following year was assisting in the military organization of Lancaster County as a member of the Committee of Safety.

PREFACE I~ accordance with the ancient and not yet obsolete cus­ tom of offering a prefatory word, some explanation of the plan, scope and character of the present work may acceptably find place here. This book, being a departure from the standard, may perhaps be best described by mentioning some of the points wherein it differs from other genealogical works. In the first place, it is not just a genealogical record. It is a family history. And, the early history of the family being closely interwoven with the colonial history of Pennsy 1- vania, portions of the latter have been included in order to render the former intelligible and to demonstrate its claim to interest.

  • The Early History of the Pittsburgh Coal Bed1
    THE EARLY HISTORY OF THE PITTSBURGH COAL BED1 HOWARD N. EAVENSON the 179 years in which ithas been mined, there has been Duringproduced from the Pittsburgh Coal Bed inthe four states of Mary- land, Pennsylvania, West Virginia, and Ohio a greater value, at mine prices, than has ever been yielded by any single mineral deposit in the world's history.* While this honor may be temporarily surrendered to the Witwatersrand gold reef for a few years, itwillundoubtedly finally rest with the Pittsburgh bed because of its tremendous unmined reserves. This fact, together with the lack of a connected history of the coal bed's development, is the reason for the preparation of this article. Until very recently the first recorded discovery of coal in the Appa- lachian field has been considered to be that by John Peter Salley on Coal River, in present southern West Virginia in 1742. 3 The Fry and Jef- ferson map, prepared in 1749 and dated 1751, shows coal on the north side of the Potomac River, near the Savage River in the Cumberland region. Thomas Walker and Christopher Gist found coal in Kentucky in 1750—51, and Lewis Evans in 1754 mentioned a coal mine on the Muskingum River in Ohio as having been on fire in 1748 and— at the same time made the first references to coal in Pennsylvania on East Sandy Creek near Franklin and along the Kiskiminetas River.4 Curi- ously enough, none of these references was to openings on the great Pittsburgh seam which covers 5,729 square miles in area.

    ON THE ROAD Highways and History in Bedford County For thousands of years the Snake Spring Valley of Bedford County Pennsylvania Department has been a vital transportation corridor through the mountains of of Transportation south-central Pennsylvania. The Snake Spring Valley contains a series of important historic trails and roads, each built on the remains of those that came before. From early native trails to the modern Pennsylvania Turnpike, each resulted from steady improvements in technology and the public’s desire for increased mobility, speed, and convenience. Although many of the early routes were obliterated by later development, traces still survive in the landscape. Recent historical and archaeological studies completed in connection with improvements to US Route 30 provided an opportunity to rediscover the area’s fascinating transportation history. ® ISBN 0-89271-119-5 Scott D.

  • ECHOES of EARLY BROWNSVILLE on the High Bank of The
    10 Echoes of Early Brownsville ECHOES OF EARLY BROWNSVILLE On the high bank of the Monongahela River, about a mile above the mouth of the Red Stone Creek, and on a bluff over-looking Nemacolin Creek was located in pre-his- toric times one of those ancient fortifications built by an unknown and now forgotten people who have left their monuments here and there through the Ohio and Missis- sippi valleys. This spot was known among the very early white trap- pers and hunters, who came over the mountains from the settlements in Pennsylvania, Maryland and Virginia to trade with the Indians, as "The Old Fort"; then as the "Old Fort at Redstone," and in after years as "Redstone Old Fort." At this point on the Monongahela River terminated what was long known as Nemocalling's Trail (or Nema- colin's Trail as now generally written), named for the cele- brated Indian chief, and having at its eastern end Fort Cumberland on the Potomac River. It was by this route the ill-fated Braddock made his way over the mountains on his expedition against Fort Duquesne, which ended in his death and the almost total destruction of his force in 1755, by the allied French and Indians, not many miles away from the Redstone Old Fort. Braddock's defeat, which encouraged the French and Indians, awakened the people of Pennsylvania, Maryland and Virginia to the peri- lous position of their frontiers and the British Government began taking measures to gather together a military force which could be successfully used to break the hold of France on the Ohio Valley.
