The Story Tellers We are the chosen. My feelings are in each family there is one who seems called to find the ancestors. To put flesh on their bones and make them live again, to tell the family story and to feel that somehow they know and approve. To me, doing genealogy is not a cold gathering of facts but, instead, breathing life into all who have one before.
We are the storytellers of the tribe. All tribes have one. We have been called as it were by our genes. Those who have gone before cry out to us: Tell our story. So, we do. In finding them, we somehow find ourselves.
How many graves have I stood before now and cried? I have lost count. How many times have I told the ancestors you have a wonderful family you would be proud of us? How many times have I walked up to a grave and felt somehow there was love there for me? I cannot say. It goes beyond just documenting facts. It goes to who am I and why do I do the things I do? It goes to seeing a cemetery about to be lost forever to weeds and indifference and saying I can't let this happen.
The bones here are bones of my bone and flesh of my flesh. It goes to doing something about it. It goes to pride in what our ancestors were able to accomplish. How they contributed to what we are today. It goes to respecting their hardships and losses, their never giving in or giving up, their resoluteness to go on and build a life for their family.
It goes to deep pride that they fought to make and keep us a Nation. It goes to a deep and immense understanding that they were doing it for us. That we might be born who we are. That we might remember them. So we do. With love and caring and scribing each fact of their existence, because we are them and they are us. So, as a scribe called, I tell the story of my family. It is up to that one called in the next generation to answer the call and take their place in the long line of family storytellers.
That, is why I do my family genealogy, and that is what calls those young and old to step up and put flesh on the bones.

John & Francis (Stephenson) Baker had at least two (2) sons:
1.1.1. Samuel Baker 52 1.1.2. Robert [James 53 ] Baker
12 Baker Rifles Gunsmith’s A number of Baker researchers have noted that Robert Baker and his sons were gunsmiths in Pennsylvania.
• Baker, Caleb 54 , 1719-41, Gunsmith, worked with his father, Robert Baker, on the confluence of Pequa [Pequea] Creek and the Susquehanna River, Lancaster Co. • Baker, Robert 55 (d. 1728), 1717-28, gunsmith at the confluence of Pequa Creek and the Susquehanna River, Lancaster Co. • Baker, Samuel 56 . 1717-19, worked with his brother, Robert Baker, Lancaster Co. In 1719 Robert bought out Samuel's interests.
Robert Baker and his father before him were gunsmiths, credited with inventing the Baker Long Rifle 57 . Robert Baker being the first man in recorded history to design and manufacture the Pa. rifle. At his death, his son Caleb kept up the tradition and later used to great effect in the American Revolution. The rifle was later known as the Hog Rifle and the Kentucky Rifle in Daniel Boone's day.
Baker Long Rifle
“…a report given to the Kentucky Rifle's Association in 1972. It seems that the Association had employed Mr. Dyke to do some research for them. They wanted him to see if he could find out the person or persons responsible for making the first Pennsylvania Rifles or what was sometimes called the "Kentucky Rifle". Mr. Dyke in his report states; "We feel as though these early gunsmiths came into Chaster, Pennsylvania, or New Castle, Delaware, from abroad and migrated up the Susquehanna River to where the Pequea flows into it and set up shop for making guns." He goes on to say that Robert Baker came into Lancaster County Court on August 15, 1719 and asked permission to erect a gun- boring mill at the mouth of Pequea Creek on his land. Permission was granted. Robert Baker and his son Caleb set up their gunshop and operated it until 1728” 58 .
One source states that the boys of this family were made to fill the bullets for the Revolutionary War. Even though they were not for England and wanted to do away with taxation59 .
"Nearly all studies of the Pennsylvania-Kentucky long rifle assume this distinctively American rifle was invented in Lancaster County sometime in the second quarter of the eighteenth century. We find a number of pre-Revolutionary War gunsmiths who may have made Pennsylvania-Kentucky long rifles. We have no idea what the early Baker files may have looked like, c. 1720. Lancaster County was formed out of Chester Co, an original county of the Province of Pennsylvania, on 10 May 1729. Several of the Baker gunsmiths in the Pequea Valley, had worked and d. before the formation of the county. 60 "
Samuel Baker and his brother Robert Baker and Robert Baker's son, Caleb, were among the first if not the first gunsmiths in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania 61 .
It has been theorized by some researchers Robert Baker was ordered back to England for the purpose of making guns for the crown. Depending on the time frame this would have been either King William or Queen Anne. In the Colonies these two wars with France were known as King Williams War & Queen Anne’s War. (Late 1680’s-1714). Based upon the time frame of his return to the Colonies, it could be assumed that Queen Anne whose war dated 1702-1713 had ordered him to England.
The appearance of Robert Baker back in the Colonies in 1717 may have been actually been his return. Robert returned with a grant to make guns for the Colonies. This is why some other researchers think Robert Baker was the first of this line to come to America, which was actually the time of his returning to his native soil. Some say he came from Liverpool, England. He may have on his return from making guns & probably teaching cutting of rifling in barrels to others while there.
In 1717 Robert Baker settled on 500 acres of land on the Susquehanna River in Conestoga Township, Chester County, PA (later Lancaster County, PA) that he purchased from Col. John French. This land was located on mile from the junction of Pequea Creek and the Susquehanna River.
On 15 August 1719, Robert Baker had Jacob Taylor, Surveyor, with permission from William Penn; lay out a site for erection of a gun mill 62 . In February 1721 iron ore was found near the site of the Baker tract 63 . This land was located on mile from the junction of Pequea Creek and the Susquehanna River. Robert's son Caleb paid taxes on this land from 1719 until 1727.
"In April or early in May, 1722, Philip Syng had surveyed by his order and to his use two Hundreds acres of land upon the west bank of the Susquehanna River, at a place known as "The Mine" *. This tract was within the bounds of Pa., but Philip Syng and
* It is believed that this "Mine" is where the ore came from to make Baker guns. – Ran Raider
13 Co. claimed it, under a Maryland title. A complaint having been made by Robert Baker and James McClean before Francis Worley, Esq., a Justice of the Peace for Chester County. Syng was committed into the custody of the Sheriff of Philadelphia by the warrant of Sir William Keith, Baronet, and the Governor who had met Syng at Patterison's on April 4 and threatened to have him punished if he presumed to make any survey of the land in question 64 .”
Later the Bakers would join the Colonies against England in the Revolutionary War. It is rumored that an example of the Baker Long Rifle exists amongst the artifacts on display at the Alamo 65 .
Although an example of a later Pennsylvania long rifle – one can only assume that the basic design was somewhat similar to that of the Baker Rifle.
Pennsylvania Research Information “ Assessment List And Other Documents Of Lancaster County Prior To The Year 1729 ” This is before Lancaster became a county in 1728.
• The early patents deeds and other conveyances of land before 1729 are, of course, in the possession of the modern owners of the lands included in them 66 . • The assessment lists of this county began in 1718. Those now in existence extend from 1718 to 1726. These list were in the dark recesses of the basement of the Chester County Court House until 1879, when Gilbert Cope rescued them and much other valuable early history, just as the County Commissioners were about to sell them to the waste paper man to "raise money for cigars,” The lists include only Conestoga, Donegal and Pequea Townships 67 . • The lists that have been copied do not seem to contain all of the names of the male adults living here at the time. Then, too, for a year or two several names disappear and again appear in later years. It seems certain that a number of persons living on the extreme outskirts were missed in taking lists. Then too, a number lived across the Sesquehanna, and were not taken into account because they were not ascertainable: and because Maryland claimed them. (That area is now York County, Pa.) In fact, no one who lived on Pequea and Conestoga Creeks were called upon for eight years after the original date of settlement to pay any taxes--not from 1710 to 1718 68 . • There are some seventy names on the naturalization list of those who came over prior to 1718. This shows the lists are not complete. Some of the names, however, do appear on the assessment of 1719 and other later lists 69 .

1710 : In the Taylor Papers, under date of Oct. 16, 1710, there is the original order to survey 10,000 acres of land on Pequea Creek to Rudolph Bundley and others, on the authority of a warrant dated Oct. 8, same year, which is therein recited. The order is directed by Jacob Taylor to Isaac Taylor, surveyor of Chester Co. The purchase of 1681 and 1682 refer to rights sold by Penn to divers persons in England, to take up lands here on Conestoga, etc., not at that time located however. (Wm. Penn) 79
August 15, 1719 * Dear Brother, (meaning Isaac Taylor)
Whereas Robert Baker a smith of this town has bought Colonel French's land † on Sesquehanna and Pequea, he tells me that being minded to build a mill on Pequea for boring logs that he needs an addition of two or three perches of ground on a corner of Pequea next to the barrens (as he describes it) which he may be obliged with by paying thee for running the line.
Thy loving brother Jacob Taylor 80 .
Philly. Dec. 12, 1719 Isaac Taylor, Loving Friend:
...... I wish we had one hour conference to settle some of these matters. I am puzzled about thy meeting Colonel French. James Logan
Reference to the map aforesaid will show that Col. French originally seccured tracts 48 and 56. This originally was one large tract and extened from the Sesquehanna River about Shenk's Ferry, eastward to Martic Forge 81 .
Feb. 17, 1721 Isaac Taylor:
Esteemed friend, these inform thee yet there is come into this Province from New England a gentleman named Jno. McNeall and hath been with me and have viewed the iron oar (ore) and matter yt wee laid out (dug out) I suppose yt he will apply to thee, as I have advised him 82 .
John Cartledge
August 24, 1728 My Good Cousin, (John Taylor, son of Jacob Taylor)
I suppose you know much better than I how far your dear father proposed to accommodate John Baker the gunsmith on Conestoga and Samuel Taylor in the manner of locating land for him. Baker and Samuel complain of delays. James Taylor
In the map before referred to, it will be seen that tract # 28 is marked Kaleb Baker. It is lower down that the mouth of Conestoga Creek 83 .
I am sending off for two different maps of this area. I hope Robert and Kaleb will appear on these maps. This is all on the Baker's from the papers I ordered. I am going to order more but they will be dated after 1735. Here are some interesting things about this land and people who were involved is this area.
This is one of the earliest references to iron ore in Conestoga of which there is any record. The Indians rumored that ore was to be found there however in 1707. Then too under date of May 31, 1723, in a letter from John Churchman and Arthur Barrett there is mention made of valuable mines in the barrens 84 .
* NOTE: this is 2 years after the death of Robert Baker of Chester Co., who m. to Susannah Packer . † Colonel John French, in 1718, was a "Non-resident but land owner .
15 In 1915 the Lancaster County Historical Society erected a marker were Postlethwaite Tavern Stood in which the First Courts of Justice were held in Lancaster County. This spot was not far from the Baker tract. Included in the program was as address on "Old Conestoga Neighbors", printed in Vol. XIX pamphlet #8
Page 278 has: Over toward Pequea Creek, near Susquehanna, were Peter Kline, Peter Creamer, Francis Norley, Joseph Rebman and Robert Baker. (Note that most all of Robert Baker's neighbors seem to have German names. Caleb Baker, Robert's oldest son always signed his name Beaker & possibly spoke with a German assent. Growing up in a predominantly German speaking area may explain this trait.)
Page 284 - The speaker referred to the 1721 assessment list and the English on the list included Robert Baker. Excerpts from a letter to Mrs. Katherine Baker Johnson, February 14, 1940, written by Lettie M. Bausman, Record Searcher: "The Province of Pennsylvania was an English possession and so all people who were subjects of the King of Great Britain had free access into Pennsylvania. No account was taken of them, hence no ship lists. Now your Baker name is straight English; I believe Caleb was raised here in Pennsylvania, and his association with German neighbors may have caused him to acquire a German accent.

Samuel Baker 1.1.1. Samuel Baker, son of John & Francis (Stephenson) Baker.
During the years of 1717-19, Samuel Baker worked with his brother, Robert Baker in Lancaster Co. In 1719 Samuel sold his interests to his brother Robert 85 .
Robert Baker 1.1.2. Robert [James 86 ] Baker , son of John & Francis (Stephenson) Baker 87 , b. 1655, Pennsylvania 88 ; d. 19 Sept 1728 89 , Lancaster Co., PA; bur.

Robert Baker settled in the Conestoga Township, Chester Co., PA. This later became Lancaster Co., PA. Here he purchased 500 acres of land lying on the Susquehanna River from Col. John French 95 . Between 1717-28, Robert & his sons were gunsmith at the confluence of Pequa Creek and the Susquehanna River, Lancaster Co 96 . Robert Baker and his son, Caleb Baker paid the taxes on this property from 1719 until 1727 97 . It was here that Robert Baker and his sons were gunsmiths. On 15 Aug 1719, Robert Baker petitioned Jacob Taylor, surveyor for William Penn, for permission to erect a gun-boring mill on Pequea Creek 98 . In Feb. 1721, iron ore was found near the site of the Baker land. Robert & his son sought and received permission to mine the ore for commercial use. The ore they mined was reduced to bar-stock available to gun manufacturers. This was the first discovery of ore in the county and predates later gunsmith operations closer to Lancaster.
They were commissioned by the King of England to make firearms for the Colonies. At the time of the Revolution the Bakers joined with the Colonies, against England.
From A Record Of The Baker And Buford Families with Allied Lines by Katherine Baker Johnson, Knoxville, Tennessee, 1940: In the Proceedings of the Lancaster County Historical Society, Vol. XX - pamphlet No. 7 (September 1916) - are printed the earliest assessment lists for this section, while it was a part of Chester County. It was known as "Conestoga". The first list for 1718 shows no Baker name. It is divided into two parts: "English Inhabitants" and "Dutch Inhabitants", meaning German, Swiss, Etc.

Andrew Baker, Sr. served as a Justice of the Peace of Washington Co., North Carolina (this area is now in Tennessee). In the early 1750s Andrew Baker, John Cox, Enoch Osb. and several other neighboring families in Pennsylvania set out on a westward journey. This journey eventually led them into the Yadkin River Valley, in present day Wilkes County, North Carolina. This small group of Pennsylvanians would be among the first to settle in the area. No white man had ever attempted settlement here before 189 . He had holdings in the Buffalo Congregational Church Library (Presbyterian), Prince Edward Co., VA. Some of these people settled along the Yadkin River, others of the more adventurous nature crossed the Blue Ridge Mountains and settled along New River in what is now Ash and Alleghany Counties, North Carolina. No white man had attempted settlement here before. New River was known at the time only by it's Indian name "Saxphaw". It was here, along the south branch, Andrew Baker made first his home 190 . Andrew Baker remained in the area of New River until about 1753. He then decided to push even deeper into Indian country. He moved down New River into what is now Grayson County, Virginia, very near the North Carolina line. Here Andrew staked out a large track of land he called his "Peach Tree Bottom" track. But the next summer, he and his family were ran out by the Indians. He returned to his prior settlement on New River, where he would remain for the next ten years or so. He did, however, make one other attempt to settle his "Peach Tree Bottom" track. About 1754, Baker returned approximately ten years later, bringing reinforcements, the Cox, Osborne, and Hashe families. This settlement by Baker and associated families illustrates a typical pattern: "These groups did not move into the public domain in ignorance of their exact location; but rather, like the children of Israel, they sent their Calebs and Joshuas ahead to spy out the land and prepare the way." Certainly Andrew Baker was a Joshua on the New River frontier. 191 Andrew Baker 1754. Andrew Baker from Yadkin, North Carolina, one of the first pioneers to claim land on the banks of the New River near the Virginia--North Carolina border, had an experience parallel to that of Henrich Grob. Driven out by Indians 192 . 1754. Settlers were moving into the Peach Bottom Tract near the Virginia-Carolina line surveyed for Dr. Thomas Walker, Peter Jefferson and Thomas and David Meriwether on March 16, 1753 as Loyal Company land. Andrew Baker from the Yadkin is said to have been there in 1754 buying from the Loyal Company but was driven out by Indians. 20 After his initial essay when he came from the Yadkin Valley in the 1750s but was driven back by the Indians, he returned about 1765 with enough people to make a permanent settlement 193 . Peach Tree Bottom His first permanent settlement was in 1765. 194 The French and Indian War forced him to leave the area, but he is supposed to have returned about 1765. A study of loose papers at the North Carolina Land Grant Office gives some added information. This was in 1767 or 1768. This time he encountered another problem. In Andrew's long absence, Dr. Thomas Walker, a surveyor for the Loyal Land Company, had staked and claimed the "Peach Tree Bottom" track, for his employers. He had to now purchase 1000 acres of his original claim before he could resettle on it again. It seems that it just wasn't meant to be. The following year, he was once again forced out by the Indians and back to his old settlement. One might wonder why Andrew was so determined to settle this particular track land. The answer lay in what was on and in the land, more so, than the land itself. For you see, one of the largest iron ore deposits in this area was discovered on this land. I think Andrew Baker, and at least one of his sons, were involved in the Iron business. His son James Baker and he built several larger iron furnaces along Cranberry Creek, a tributary of the south branch of New River. The remains of some of these old Iron Furnaces can be seen even today. They were at their peek of production during the Revolutionary War.” 195 . The John Cox, Ephraim Osborne and John Hashe families accompanied Baker on his return in 1765, Cox settling opposite Baker. George Collins and George Reeves from Drury's Bluff below Richmond arrived at Peach Bottom in 1767. Baker soon sold land to Jeremiah Harrison, James Mulkey and James, John and Samuel Blevins. The Hashes located where Bridle Creek enters the New. The Osbornes located between Bridle and Saddle Creek opposite the Bakers. 196 • 1755 Andrew Baker appears as a chain carrier for Marmaduke Kimbrough in Orange Co.

It is interesting to note that there were more families in 1782; apparently several families left the area during the Revolutionary War years. (Some of the Tory Families left for more pro-British areas). The region west of the crest of the Blue Ridge, in 1778, was considered Captain Andrew Baker's Company. William Colvard was the justice of the peace for the area. William Ray was a constable and Daniel Richardson, Andrew Baker Jr., and William Clay were appraisers in the southern part of Baker's District. In the Northern District of Baker's Company Micajah Pennington was the justice of the peace, Benjamin Pennington served as constable, Beverly Watkins, James Ward and Abijah Pennington were the appraisers 213 .

Kentucky. 220 • 1779 Andrew Baker in Prince Edward County VA 221 By 1779, when Ashe developed into 2 militia districts, political power appeared to be resolving around 2 locations: one in southern Ashe in the area of Boone with Andrew Baker, a justice of the county court and Captain of the Militia, the political leader: and the second in the northern district centered around Penington’s Mill (located on Grassy Creek just south of the Virginia border) with Micajah Penington , a justice and Captain of the Militia, the political leader of this area. Both Micajah Penington’s and Andrew Baker’s roles in power were short-lived. It is believed the Penington’s were Quakers and were not considered ardent enough Whigs. In Sept. 1799 Micajah’s estate, along with a number of friends, was considered confiscated, although there is no evidence it was ever sold. In a list concerning the status of several justices (prepared by Benjamin Cleveland, Colonel of the Militia, on Oct. 6th, 1781) only William Colvard was acting in his capacity as Justice of Ashe Co. George Morris had resigned; James Tompkins refused to qualify; Thomas Elledge, Abner Smalley and Micajah Penington were listed as Tories; and Andrew Baker was reputed to have taken protection of the enemy. It is not known how accurate Cleveland’s judgement was concerning these people. Andrew Baker was appointed a road overseer in June 1782, and about a decade later both Penington and Baker were Justices and Penington was also a Captain of the Militia. 222 • 1780 Andrew Baker and James Baker witnesses for the will of Richard Burton (Wilkes County, NC) 223 • 1780 Andrew Baker files an entry for a tract of land referred to his " former survey " and his " old survey ". This land lies in what is now Ashe Co., NC 224 1780. 3 April, Andrew Baker made an entry for a tract of land on the South Fork, which was surveyed a week later. In these papers, reference is made to "the line of his former survey" and to his "old survey." In most instances where I find these notations in land entries and surveys made between 1778 and 1781, it indicates the grantee was in the process of obtaining a deed form the Granville Land Office when it closed in March 1763. 225 On April 3, 1780 Andrew Baker made an entry for a tract of land on the South Fork, which was surveyed a week later. In these papers, reference is made to " the line of his former survey " and to his " old survey ". Since it is known that entries were being made for land just to the south (in the McDowell Co. area) in early 1763, there is every reason to believe that Andrew Baker had returned to the New River once the threat of Indians had abated. 226 • 1781 From Colonial Records Andrew Baker appears in Wilkes Co.

David settled at Cox's Ford ten miles from Grayson Courthouse and John later moved to North Carolina to his "Roundabout" at the mouth of Cranberry Creek of the New's South Fork. In 1778 the Coxes built the first Peach Bottom Fort at the mouth of Peach Bottom overlooking the river 248 . In his will, Andrew speaks of his plantation and lays out plans for his slaves to be hired out to work - for employers of their choosing - for a period of six years during which they will be paid wages that they will receive at the end of that time. They are then to be set free and set to the Northwest Territory. Prince Edward County, VA Baker, Andrew (Sr.) Will Book 3; pages 353-356 3 January 1804 I Andrew Baker Senr.

The deed was recorded about 1803 by an attachment, which could be an indication that he died. When he wittnessed Hugh Smith's will he signed as James Baker, Esquire , which would lead one to believe that he was an older man. In the 1790 census he is shown as having a wife and four boys under 16, but these could be orphaned grandsons. James does not appear in any census after 1790, suggesting he could have died before 1800. Questions arise as to some of his children, did they belong to him or perhaps Andrew Baker Sr. , living in Wilkes and Ashe at the same time as James . Some thought is given as to maybe James and Andrew being brothers 362 .

Lee Co., VA. I have this notation in my notes: Rev. Andrew Baker m. (1)? Susannah Vannoy (2) Elizabeth Avent. What exactly is validity of this claim I have no idea. It is included here for thought. 31 In 1768, Andrew Baker became one of the first settler is the New River area of Wilkes County, North Carolina [this area became Ashe County, North Carolina in 1799]. Like most great men his reputation was impeccable, he was a good Whig, he held great influence in the community, was a chaplain of the Baptist religion, and held an eminent for morality. Andrew Baker was a Primitive Baptist minister. He served as such prior to the American Revolution and following it. He started many churches around the area of North Carolina and southwest Virginia. History shows him to have been an able, wise and successful minister in these areas. There were many churches in which he preached and pastored. Churches Pastored : Dutchman's Creek Church - this church was broken up during the Revolutionary War Eatons's Church - formed 16 Dec 1790 Brier Creek Church, Wilkes Co., NC - here he served two terms, 1781-1794 and again 1800-1802 Lewis Fork Church, Wilkes Co., NC, 1792-1794 Cedar Island (which became Ausburn then later Fox Creek Church), Grayson Co., VA Sinclair's Bottom Church, Washington Co., VA Providence Church, Yadkin Co., NC in 1805 Thompson Settlement Baptist Church, Lee Co., VA - 1811-1815 Rev. Andrew & Elizabeth (Avant) Baker were received by letter into the Thompson Settlement Baptist Church in Lee Co., VA on the 3rd Saturday of October, 1811. He was called to pastor the church on 23 Apr 1815. There are many stories concerning the relationship between the Baker and Avant families. One consistent theme holds that when Andrew and Elizabeth m. to her family disowned her. She was disinherited and told never to return home. It was not until her parents later years that they sought to make peace with their daughter. Calling her to return home before they died. A tale states that when Andrew and Elizabeth first married to he was a fiddler for dances; of course this was prior to his becoming a preacher. The story goes that he and his wife left the children at home to attend a dance - staying late into the evening. Upon returning home they found the house and children burned to the ground. This was said to have led him to become a Christian and a preacher never to attend another dance. There are of course, several variations to this tale. The most plausible one that I came across had Andrew and Elizabeth attending a party. While they were out one of their children burned up when the house burned. Revolutionary Service: He served as chaplain in his company in the Revolutionary War He served as a private in Capt. Isaac Ruddle's Company at Ruddles Fort between Cynthiann and Paris from fall of 1779 to 1780 when the British and Indians used cannon (for the first time against Kentucky) defeated and captured the Americans. Kentucky was then the Virginia frontier. Rev. Andrew & Elizabeth (Avant) Baker had nine (9) children: 1.1.2.3.1.1. Solomon Baker, b. 13 Apr 1770, Wilkes Co., NC (now in Ashe Co., NC).

Beginning about 1763 he and other long hunters hunted and trapped 32 Located at the mouth of Buffalo (close to Ricetown) on the Green River, made trips down the Cumberland River to Spanish Natchez to sell their furs. Col. Gasper Mansker once became ill in Natchez and John Baker stayed with him until he was able to travel, then he & Gasper walked cross country back to Va. John served as a Captain in Col. Benjamen Cleveland's Regiment during the American Revolution. .A great grand son, when applying for membership in the SAR, wrote, "Capt. John Baker and his company went to the rescue of Col. Benjamen Cleveland when the Tories were about to hang him." John Baker came to Kentucky after the war and lived Fayette, Boyle, Madison, Rockcastle and Clay Co's. .Late in life he m. to 2nd Aza Williams. After Aza died John lived in a rock house near the mouth of Buffalo Creek, now in Owsley Co, Ky. .He died there in 1820. John Renty is said to have fathered several 1/2 Indian children. Another note for Capt. 6ggf John Rinta Baker: John Renta Baker and Benjamin Cutbirth/Cutbeard (father of Mary Cutbirth who m. to Elijah Callaway, son of Thomas Callaway and May Baker) (7g-aunt May Baker is the sister to 7ggf Andrew Baker, Sr., father of 6ggf John Renta Baker) were hunting companions. They had made several hunting trips to Kentucky between 1767 and 1769. Cutbirth was also a hunting companion with Daniel Boone, in fact he m. to Boone's niece. This 1778 Wilkes Co., NC Road order is the only authentic record I have for my 6ggf John "Renta" Baker. All the other information above needs to be verified. The earliest mention of *Matthew Sparks in the Wilkes County Court Records is dated June 3, 1778--he was among a group of men appointed to lay out a road. This record reads as follows: Ordered by the Court that Rowland Judd, John Robins Jur, John Tyrah, William Owen Jur, John Shepperd, Nethaniel Judd, Barnet Owen, John Baker, Matthew Sparks, Andrew Baker Jur, Thomas Calloway, Robert Blake, Zacariah Wells, Abel Pennington, James Ward and James Lewis or any 12 of them be a Jury to lay out a Road the best and most Convenient way from the Deep fourd on Reddies River to Benajah Penington's mill and make Report there of to the next Court. A longhunter. Around 1765 he traveled with Benjamin Cutbrith on a tour to the West of the Mississippi River. In 1766, a hunting party consisting of: John Baker, John Steward, and James Stewart traveled down the head streams of the Tennessee River, crossed the Clinch Mountains to the Cumberland Valley. They explored the Tennessee, Ohio and Cumberland Rivers, then continued down the Mississippi to Natchez. In 1766 Captain James Smith, Joshua Haughaton, Uriah Stone, William Baker, & Jamie (a negro slave boy), explored along the Cumberland down the Ohio. In early June of 1769, a great hunt was made in Kentucky & Tennessee from the New River, 8 miles from Ft. Chiswell. Included in the 22 members of the hunting party were: Joseph Baker, Joseph Drake, William Crabtree, and John Baker. In 1770 John Baker is found in the Watauga settlement (NC). During the Revolutionary War John Baker served under the command of Colonel Cleveland. He was among the men who went to rescue Colonel Cleveland, after he was ambushed by the Riddle gang of Tories, shortly after the battle. He received a Revolutionary War pension in North Carolina. In 1777, James Smithy, Joshua Haughaton, Uriah Stone, and William Baker explored along the Cumberland into Middle Tennessee 484 . A John Baker was in the Watauga settlement in 1770, and he was one of the Long Hunters 485 . John Renta Baker continued to live in Wilkes County until about 1790 or 1791. At which time he, and his old hunting companion Benjamin Cutbirth, with their families moved to Carter County, Tennessee. John Renta lived here for six or seven years before moving to Hawkins County, Tennessee. He remained there only a short time. In about 1798 he moved into the Blackwater Settlement in Lee County, Virginia. In 1801 John Renta moved to what was to become Clay County, Kentucky. He died in 1830 and in all probability, is buried in the Cortland Cemetery in Owsley County, Kentucky. This Cemetery is located on Cortland Creek a tributary of Buffalo Creek 486 . He discovered THE BIG CAVE in Kentucky and he & his wife were lost inside for 40 hours when their torch went out. John "Renta' Baker's exploits are described in several books currently in print! 487 “He was born in Pennsylvania in about 1745 and brought into the valley of New River when but a small child. His early life was mostly spent in the forest. The time he spent in the woods was probably the closest thing to schooling he ever received? It is quite understandable that he became a professional hunter when he grew to manhood. He was a member of one of the first organized hunting parties to cross the Appalachian Mountains. This party was lead by Benjamin Cutbirth in the summer of 1767. Ben Cutbirth and John Renta were raised in the same neighborhood on New River. They only lived a few miles apart. Cutbrith and Baker would go on many hunts together. They developed a friendship for each other, a bond that would span nearly a lifetime. A longhunter.

In 1766, a hunting party consisting of: John Baker , John Steward, and James Stewart traveled down the head streams of the Tennessee River, crossed the Clinch Mountains to the Cumberland Valley. They explored the Tennessee, Ohio and Cumberland Rivers, and then continued down the Mississippi to Natchez. In 1766 Captain James Smith, Joshua Haughaton, Uriah Stone, William Baker, & Jamie (a negro slave boy), explored along the Cumberland down the Ohio. The hunting trip by Benjamin Cutbrith and John Baker in 1767 proved to be a great success. After selling their furs, they had managed to make as much in one hunting season, as they would have in several years of backbreaking farming. Word soon spread of their success and that of other hunting parties 490 . In early June of 1769, the largest and most famous hunting party ever formed in the area met at the mouth of Reedy Creek in Virginia. These men would become known as the "Long Hunters", called so for the great distances they traveled and the long periods of time they were out. Some of these hunters were away from home for as much as two years and a few even longer 491 . Their great hunt was made in Kentucky & Tennessee from the New River, 8 miles from Ft. Chiswell. Included in the 22 members of the hunting party were: Joseph Baker, Joseph Drake, William Crabtree, and John Baker . Most of them had returned home by late June of 1771, with the exception of John Renta Baker , Cassius Brooks, and eight others. These men built two boats and two canoes and continued to hunt and trap for several more months. They worked their way down the Cumberland and Tennessee Rivers to the Mississippi River. They then descended that river to the settlement at Natchez. Here they sold their furs and returned home overland.” 492 In 1777, James Smithy, Joshua Haughaton, Uriah Stone, and William Baker explored along the Cumberland into Middle Tennessee. 493 After the Hunt “John Renta Baker encountered another problem after returning to his home in Wilkes County. He had seen this one coming for a long time, but he nor his neighbors knew what to do about it. This problem was the Loyalist or more often called Tories. They had gained complete control of the valley. The political and economic structure was solely in their hands now. Speaking out against the Crown was a one sure way of getting into trouble. If a person was even suspected of disloyalty, they were often forced to take an oath of allegiance to the King before they were allowed to sale their product at market. Needless to say, this harassment brought on many hard feelings. This would all come to an abrupt ending when a man by the name of Benjamin Cleveland moved into the valley. He would prove to be the Tories worst nightmare. Not long after his arrival, he gathered together some forty of the most headstrong men in the area. These men became known as "Cleveland's Devils" or sometimes called "Cleveland's Bull Dogs". They would soon rid the valley of the Tories, forcing them into the surrounding mountains. Col. Cleveland's main solution to the Tory problem was always the same. On the limbs of a giant oak tree, standing in Wilkesboro, he hung every Tory he and his men could catch, with no exceptions. Justice was always swift and very permanent. 494 I would like to note here that I was in Wilkesboro in the summer of 1987. To the rear of the Courthouse still stands the above- mentioned Oak Tree. It looked today much as I imagine it did in Cleveland's time. It stands there as if it were defining time itself. At the base of this magnificent old tree is a small plaque. It reads: "THE TORY OAK 495 " on the limbs of this tree Tories were hanged during the American Revolution, by Colonel Ben Cleveland and others". I knew that John Renta Baker had been one of Cleveland's Devils and as I stood here, I could not but wonder how many hangings he had witnessed or even taken part in. 496 When the Revolutionary War broke out back east, it came to no big surprise to John Renta and his neighbors. After all, they had been fighting their own war with the Tory for quite sometime. The main impact of the war did not come to the valley until late September of 1780. A rider came in with some shocking news. He had been sent by Col. John Sevier, commander of the Watauga Station in Tennessee. Col. Sevier informed Col. Cleveland that he had just received word from Col. Patrick Ferguson, a British officer under the command of Gen. Cornwallis. The message came in the form of a warning. It stated that if he, (Col. Sevier) did not lay down his arms and stop this rebellion against the Crown, he would come, "hang their leaders and lay waste to their country with fire and sword." Riders had also been dispatched to Col. William Campbell in Virginia and Col. Isaac Shelby in Tennessee with the same message. All were advised, with the utmost urgency to gather as many men and as much supplies as possible. The Americans had made up their minds, they were not going to wait for the war to come to them, and they were going to meet it head on 497 . 34 Revolutionary Service : John Baker - served under Colonel Cleveland; October 7, 1780 – Battle of Kings Mountain. When Colonel Cleveland was ambushed by the Riddle gang of Tories, shortly after the battle, he was one of the men who went to rescue him. He received a pension (North Carolina Records Volume 22). Battle of Kings Mountain In less than a week Col. Cleveland had mustered about 350 men and started out to join the main force. When united with Campbell's and Shelby's men, the American Army amounted to a little over 900 men. The British office, Col. Ferguson, had about 100 regular soldiers under his command. He had also managed to recruit about 900 to 1000 Tory also. Col. Ferguson and his men had fortified themselves on top of a mountain. The battle was fought on October 7, 1780 and would become known as the Battle of Kings Mountain. The battle ended in defeat for the British. They lost 157 men that day, among them their leader, Col. Patrick Ferguson. 498 There was little time for rejoicing over their victory of the battle. A more pressing problem was now at hand. These men had been continuously on the move and marching for many weeks. They were hungry, cold, tired, and a long way from home. Their food and other provisions were almost depleted. If this were not bad enough, they now had 750 British and Tory prisoners to contend with. Of these, 60 were wounded. They resorted to scavenging for food anyway or anywhere they could find it. It was late in the year and all the crops had been harvested. Occasionally, they would come across an abandoned garden, where they would sometimes find sweet potatoes and green pumpkins. These they fried and ate as if they were some sort of delicacy. As each day passed the situation became worse. A constant reminder of all their suffering was always close at hand. These were the British and Tory prisoners they had captured. The hate and resentment for them grew with each passing day and was about to reach a boiling point. Of course, Col. Cleveland had his usual solution to the problem. He simply just wanted to hang them all. Col. Shelby and Campbell were not quite as blood thirsty, but did agree to hold trials, hoping to appease him and some of the others. So on the 7th day after the battle, a makeshift Court was set up in the middle of the woods. The trials began early and lasted all day. Needless to say, few of the prisoners were pronounced innocent, most were sentenced to hang. That night in a nearby forest, a very eerie seen took place. By the light of Pine-knot torches the prisoners were placed on horseback and hung, three at a time. 499 This process was repeated over and over, until the total of nine men had been hung. At this point a stop was called. What had begun in a rage of hate and revenge had ended in total silence. Nevertheless, it sent a very clear message to the remaining Tory prisoners of their situation. Within the next few days most of them had managed to escape. Of the 750 prisoners taken, only 130 were turned over to the authorities at Hillsborough, North Carolina. 500 The Battle of Kings Mountain was one of the most decisive battles of the Revolutionary War. But for the people in Wilkes County, North Carolina the war was a long way from being over. The personal war that Col. Cleveland and his little band had waged against the Tory, once again raised it's ugly head 501 . Capture of Colonel Ben Cleveland A certain Tory leader by the name of Capt. William Riddle made a bold move. A party of six or eight men, led by Capt. Riddle, sneaked into the valley and captured the biggest prize of all, Col. Ben Cleveland himself. 502 The Colonel was on a visit to his plantation up at "Old Fields". The creek that ran through his plantation still bares this name today. This was on Saturday, April 13, 1781. The Tory had been following Col. Cleveland and his whereabouts for quite sometime. They had finally located him at the house of Jesse Duncan, a tenant of the Colonel's plantation. Not known to the Tory, there were two men in the house at the time. Richard Callaway and John Shirley, who had come over to visit the Colonel and decided to spend the night. The Tory knew that the Colonel was not going to be taken without a fight, so they devised a plan. Under the cover of darkness, they came and stole the Colonel's horses, knowing he would think they had broken loose and would try to find them. Sure enough, the next morning the Colonel, after discovering his horses missing, set out to find them. His tenant, Duncan, came along accompanied by Richard Callaway and John Shirley. As the Tory had planned, they ran head on into their ambush. Col. Cleveland was taken prisoner. Richard Callaway was shot through the thigh and left to die. Jesse Duncan and John Shirley had managed to escape. 503 The discovery of what had taken place was not made until later that morning. Joseph Callaway, who, I guess became concerned in the whereabouts of his brother, set out to find him. After reaching Duncan's house, he discovered no one there and the horses gone. It was about this time Callaway heard gunfire. He ran in the direction from where the sound came and there discovered Shirley and Duncan. After the story was related to Joseph Callaway, he mounted his horse and road off as fast as he could in the direction of his father's house, a short distance away. After telling his father, Thomas Callaway, the location of his wounded brother, he remounted his horse and set out again. This time to tell the Colonel's brother, Capt. Robert Cleveland, of the situation. There was no time to waist. Capt. Robert Cleveland lived some 12 miles away. By the time Callaway reached his home and the return trip, the trail would be long cold. In a short time the whole neighborhood was alerted. 504 35 William Callaway, another brother of Richard, John Renta Baker and Samuel McQueen set out on the trail in pursuit of the Tory. After tracking most that day, shortly before dusk they discovered the Tory camp. Not wanting to alert the Tory of their presents, our little rescue party retreated back down the trail and bed down for the night. Just before sunrise the next morning Capt. Robert Cleveland rode up with another twenty or so. After exchanging ideas of how to deal with the situation, the party moved in closer to take a look at the Tory camp. The Tories were going about their business preparing breakfast, totally unaware of what was about to take place. Old Ben Cleveland was setting on a log, acting as if he didn't have a care in the world. He was among the first to discover the presence of his rescuers. The Colonel was a very large man, weighing upward to 300 pounds. When the first shots rang out he knew it would be of little use for him to try running. So he just set there on the log shouting; "Hurrah for Brother Bob! That's right, give 'em hell! " With this he fell backwards off the log and lay on the ground, in fear of being shot by one of his own men. 505 With the exception of one, the Tories made their escape, including their leader, Capt. Riddle. But Colonel Cleveland was not to be denied his revenge. Capt. Riddle and two others by the names of Reeves and Goss were captured shortly after. It does not take much imagination to figure out their fate. That's right! The Old Oak Tree 506 in Wilkesboro. But, it could never be said that the old Colonel wasn't an understanding person. He did allow Capt. Riddle's wife to watch as he hung her husband. 507 In 1777, James Smithy, Joshua Haughaton, Uriah Stone, and William Baker explored along the Cumberland into Middle Tennessee. 508 John Renta Baker continued to live in Wilkes County until about 1790 or 1791. At which time he, and his old hunting companion Benjamin Cutbirth, with their families moved to Carter County, Tennessee. 509 7 Nov 1793 – appointed juror Wilkes Co., NC 510 .

He was a longhunter. 36 According to family tradition Joseph was somewhat of a "black sheep" of the family. He at one point was forbidden by his brother Andrew from coming to visit until had "mended his ways. In early June of 1769, a great hunt was made into Kentucky and Tennessee. The group of 22 hunters began their journey from the New River, 8 miles from Ft. Chiswell. Included in the party were: Joseph Baker, Joseph Drake, William Crabtree, and John Baker. A Joseph Baker is among those who served in the Revolutionary War. He is found in a listing of 5 Sept 177 - Apr 1778, Montgomery County, Virginia. Later Joseph Baker is found in 1814, with 248 acres of land on the waters of the North Fork of the Clinch in Lee County, Virginia. Records indicate that at the time he was a resident of the county. Found "Early Settlers of Lee County Virginia and Adjacent Counties, Vol. 1 538 ", listed among those who served in the Revolutionary War we find from a Montgomery County, Virginia listing 5 Sept 1777 - Apr 1778, Joseph Baker. In 1814, a Joseph Baker held 248 acres of land on Water North Fork Clinch, Lee County, Virginia. He was a resident of the county at the time. Joseph Baker is found in the 1790 Burke Co. 9th District. That district encompassed land north of the Catawba River in present day Caldwell County. He is found often in the court minutes serving as a juryman and other duties. He owned land on the SE side of Lower Creek bounded by the land of John Hays and Churchfield Jackson. The selling of 425 acres of land to Drury Williams on May 4, 1797 perhaps signaled a move from the county where he had been a resident since abt. 1778. This Joseph Baker could likely be the Joseph Baker living in Knox Co. KY in the 1820-30s. This Joseph might also be the son of Andrew Baker and Mary Bolling. The summons of a William Baker from Wilkes Co. to testify on behalf of this Joseph and the appearance of Bolling Baker in other court records could indicate a possible connection 539 It is said that according to family tradition, Joseph was the so-called "black sheep" of the family. He was a one point forbidden by his brother Andrew from coming to visit until he had "mended his ways". In early June of 1769, a great hunt was made into Kentucky and Tennessee.

In 1769 he was baptized by Elder Samuel Harriss, and at once began to exhort. His preaching in his native country was instrumental in gathering several churches. About 1773, his itinerant labors were extended to Henrico County, and thence down the peninsula between the James and York rivers. In this region he was abundantly blessed in the establishment of churches. Having crossed thence into Gloucester, where he labored in short time, he next set sail, in the spring of 1776, for the Eastern shore. In the new field, amidst much opposition and severe persecution, he founded no less than ten churches. He was brother of Leonard Baker, the pastor of Musterfield church, in Halifax County, to whom in his last sickness he addressed an affectionate letter, and who reached his bedside only in time to see him die 545 .

Robert Baker 1753 --- 6 Aug 1834 Andrew Monroe wrote the obituary of Rev. Robert Baker who was a Methodist minister from Montgomery/Calloway County, Missouri. Robert Baker was a younger brother to Elder Andrew Baker - a primitive Baptist minister from North Carolina and Lee County, Virginia. Another of the fathers has fallen asleep. The Rev. Robert Baker - a native of Virginia: who, when but a youth joined the struggle of the American Revolution. Through all the dangers of war, he was preserved, except in the battle of Kings Mountain, at which he received a severe wound. After the conclusion of the war, he accompanied some of the enterprising emigrants to the west: and whenever necessary, he served in defense of the frontier settlements, against the encroachments of savage men. He was held in the confidence and high esteem of the pioneers in Tennessee and Kentucky. Brother Baker was not satisfied with just sharing the honors of having gained his country's liberties, and of having braved the dangers of the frontiers, but before he had reached the meridian of life, he sought and obtained that liberty which the Son of God alone can give, whilst the fire of Divine love was burning in his heart, he went a minister and inquired in to this matter. The minister informed him that he had experienced a similar change when at college, but had never considered it his duty to make it known to his congregations. At this, Brother Baker was much surprised: for such were his views and feelings, that he considered it his duty to publish what God had done for his soul, to all around him. He gave himself to prayer, and went on his lonely way, rejoicing in the love of Christ. When God pardoned his sins, he shouted. Glory to God! And so strange was this sound, that the people thought him insane. He be came acquainted with the then persecuted Methodists and united with them. This was in the wilds of Tennessee. A local preacher among the emigrants proposed to organize a class. Brother Baker was the first to go forward: and according to his own account, he was the first man who joined the Methodist Episcopal church, west of the mountains. But he could not rest here: "the love of Christ" soon "constrained him" to invite others to participation of gospel grace. He was soon licensed to preach. He was an acceptable preacher, and God gave him many seals to his ministry, in different parts of the west. Brother Baker settled in Missouri, in 1818, where he had a new field of usefulness: nor did he fail to throw his mite to the utmost of his ability. Although time had made some inroads upon his strength, his fine constitution and good health enabled him to labor considerably, and to be useful. 41 In 1826, I saw this venerable servant of God: and I always esteemed it a privilege to be in his company. He was always cheerful and happy: and although he live to see more than fourscore years, yet there was nothing childish in his conversation or manners. He was, indeed, a ripe shock of corn. Having his "loins girt about, and his light burning," he waited patiently the coming of the Lord: and when he could no longer preach, he would sometimes exhort and pray with uncommon fervency and power: and his address to the Divine throne indicated how near he lived to God. Truly it was as one speaking to his friend. He was beloved by all of his community, and will live long in the memory of the people of Montgomery and Calloway counties. Some months previous to his death, he was seized with the disease which terminated his sufferings. He had every kindness shown by his children, among whom he suffered and d. . As he had furnished a pattern of practical piety for more than half a century, so in his last illness, he furnished an illustrious example of patience and fortitude: and as he shouted glory, when he first entered the spiritual kingdom. We have seen reason to believe, he shouted glory in heave. When he left this world. For not withstanding, he had lost his speech for fifteen days previous to his death. He gave satisfactory evidence that God was with him to bear his triumphant spirit home. He calmly fell asleep in Jesus, on the 6 day of Aug., 1834. God grant that his children, grand children, and acquaintances, may follow him as he followed Christ: saying, let me live the life of the righteous that I may die his death 603 . Rev.

It is unsure the number of children that John Baker and his wives had. Through deduction, I believe that Permdy Van Noy was the mother of Issac Baker ( only known child of John Baker ). She apparently died shortly after his birth, due to John's 2 nd marriage in September of 1850. If this is not the case then he would have been illegitimate, which is doubtful.

Bookmark not defined. b. 3 Oct 1896; d. 1 Jul 1971, Lee County, VA. Jess Baker was a coal miner. He was a member of the UMW #8761. It was said of Jess that there was no one better to have on a strike line with you. He was also active in the Independent Order of Odd Fellows, Jessee Lodge. Both Jess and Nancy Baker appear on several times in the Deed Books of Lee County, Virginia. There was a time when the Baker and Stapleton families had a minor altercation. It seems that Jess Baker was taking a truck into the holler where he lived in order to remove coal from the mine on his property. Ada Stapleton, wife of Ken, did not like the idea of the truck passing across her property, even though it was a pubic roadway. She pulled a pistol on Jess and took a shot at him, missing. Jess was not one to give up a good fight, chucked a rock at back at her striking her up side the head. The argument was getting heated up further when a neighbor jumped into the fray. The neighbor pulled a gun on Jess, who then took out a knife to defend himself. The neighbor ended up with a shredded coat. Shots were fired and Jess was shot in the neck (grazed). The neighbor was shot in the leg. It is my understanding that help was called for the neighbor, however, they found Jess injured and took him to the hospital instead of the neighbor, who later walked into the hospital for assistance 930 . The feud did not end that day. For a number of years afterwards the Stapleton family would cross the street/look away any time that they passed a member of the Baker family. Apparently the feud did not last long, as I always remember visiting with Ada Stapleton when I was young. -- Judy Smith William Jess & Nancy Elizabeth (Rogers) Baker had (9) nine children: 1.1.2.1.1.2.5.4.1.4.1.

Esq., in the reign of Edward the 4th possessed the elegant house of Bolling Hall near Bradford in Yorkshire where many previous generations of his ancestors had lived.

Robert Bolling immigrated to America, arrived Oct. 2,1660 at the age of 26. In early manhood Robert engaged in trade as a merchant, and the firms "Robert Bolling & Company" is referred to the records of several counties, showing that their business was extensive. He was also a planter, and acquired large tracts of land 982 . His residence was in Charles City County, on the south side of James River in what is now Prince George County. The name of the plantation where he lived, "Kippax" did not probably originate with him, as he had, so far as known, no reason for giving the name 983 . First public office, which he held, was, doubtless, that of justice of Charles City County, and he was sheriff of that County in 1690 - 1692 984 In 1702 Robert was still justice 985 .

Richard Callaway, son of Thomas & May (Baker) Callaway, was named for his uncle, Col. Richard Callaway 998 . Capture of Colonel Ben Cleveland A certain Tory leader by the name of Capt. William Riddle made a bold move. A party of six or eight men, led by Capt. Riddle, sneaked into the valley and captured the biggest prize of all, Col. Ben Cleveland himself. 999 The Colonel was on a visit to his plantation up at "Old Fields". The creek that ran through his plantation still bares this name today. This was on Saturday, April 13, 1781. The Tory had been following Col. Cleveland and his whereabouts for quite sometime. They had finally located him at the house of Jesse Duncan, a tenant of the Colonel's plantation. Not known to the Tory, there were two men in the house at the time. Richard Callaway 1000 and John Shirley 1001 , who had come over to visit the 73 Colonel and decided to spend the night. The Tory knew that the Colonel was not going to be taken without a fight, so they devised a plan. Under the cover of darkness, they came and stole the Colonel's horses, knowing he would think they had broken loose and would try to find them. Sure enough, the next morning the Colonel, after discovering his horses missing, set out to find them. His tenant, Duncan, came along accompanied by Richard Callaway and John Shirley. As the Tory had planned, they ran head on into their ambush. Col. Cleveland was taken prisoner. Richard Callaway was shot through the thigh and left to die. Jesse Duncan and John Shirley had managed to escape. 1002 The discovery of what had taken place was not made until later that morning. Joseph Callaway, who I guess became concerned in the whereabouts of his brother, set out to find him. After reaching Duncan's house, he discovered no one there and the horses gone. It was about this time Callaway heard gunfire. He ran in the direction from where the sound came and there discovered Shirley and Duncan. After the story was related to Joseph Callaway, he mounted his horse and road off as fast as he could in the direction of his father's house, a short distance away. After telling his father, Thomas Callaway, the location of his wounded brother, he remounted his horse and set out again. This time to tell the Colonel's brother, Capt. Robert Cleveland, of the situation. There was no time to waste Capt. Robert Cleveland lived some 12 miles away. By the time Callaway reached his home and the return trip, the trail would be long cold. In a short time the whole neighborhood was alerted. 1003 William Callaway, another brother of Richard, John Renta Baker and Samuel McQueen set out on the trail in pursuit of the Tory. After tracking most that day, shortly before dusk they discovered the Tory camp. Not wanting to alert the Tory of their presents, our little rescue party retreated back down the trail and bed down for the night. Just before sunrise the next morning Capt. Robert Cleveland rode up with another twenty or so. After exchanging ideas of how to deal with the situation, the party moved in closer to take a look at the Tory camp. The Tories were going about their business preparing breakfast, totally unaware of what was about to take place. Old Ben Cleveland was setting on a log, acting as if he didn't have a care in the world. He was among the first to discover the presence of his rescuers. The Colonel was a very large man, weighing upward to 300 pounds. When the first shots rang out he knew it would be of little use for him to try running. So he just set there on the log shouting; "Hurrah for Brother Bob! That's right, give 'em hell! " With this he fell backwards off the log and lay on the ground, in fear of being shot by one of his own men. 1004 With the exception of one, the Tories made their escape, including their leader, Capt. Riddle. But Colonel Cleveland was not to be denied his revenge. Capt. Riddle and two others by the names of Reeves and Goss were captured shortly after. It does not take much imagination to figure out their fate. That's right! The Old Oak Tree 1005 in Wilkesboro. But, it could never be said that the old Colonel wasn't an understanding person. He did allow Capt. Riddle's wife to watch as he hung her husband. 1006 ENGLAND Joseph England Joseph England. This was before Pike Co. separated from Floyd.

Child Hedrick, living 2004 LAWSON Researched by Velma Ann Rogers Tower In Hotten's Book on Ye Original Person's of Quality in Virginia, I found what I assume to be the beginning of our Lawson line in America. My Grandmother Rogers was Alcy Lawson. Papa spelled her name Alcy, but J.L. David, Aunt Mahala Ann Rogers husband, spelled it Ailcy. Spelling, quite often, gets changed by different people and isn't too important. Due to the name, Alcy, I think that I found our American beginning. On page 174 of Hotten's book, Christopher Lawson is listed in the list of the living on Ye Old Plantation over against James Citte. "February 16, 1623, Living on Ye Plantation over against Henry Booth James Citte: On another page, some of the same people are listed but Capt. Roger Smith some of the spelling is different. The comments say they Mrs. Smith are the same people. Elizabeth Salter Sara Macocke Francis Fowler (Fouller) age 23 Eizabeth Rolfe Christopher Lawson -- no age given Christopher Lawson Alce Lawson (his wife)--no age given Uxor Eius (his wife) Christopher Redhead--age 24 Francis Fouller (Fowler) Stephen Webb--age 25 88 John Butterfield--age 23 Thomas Harvie--age 24 William Baker --age 24 Thomas Nollon--age 25 Richard Alford--age 26 Feb. 16, 1623- List of the Dead on the Plantation near James Citte: Thomas Lawson William Dier (Dyer) Mary Dier (Dyer) Since my Great Grandfather Lawson was named Dyer Lawson, I assumed there had been an alliance between a Dyer and a Lawson. This shows them in close proximity as early as 1623. In the Census reports on Great Grandfather Lawson, he is listed as Dyer, Dier, and Dire Lawson. As I said before, the spelling depends on the person who took the Census. They quite often spelled the name as it sounded to them. The Falling River Lawsons William Lawson William Lawson obtained a Patent 1287 20 August 1745 for 143 acres of land in the County of Brunswick Virginia on the North side of Falling River (Virginia Patents: Bk 23 pp 1120-1122). There has been found a Marriage record of a William Lawson and Isabell Kenny for 22 August 1699 in Richmond County Virginia. She was the daughter of John Kenny, deceased 1288 (D.R. #1 page 53. Also "Swinney"- page 51 Wills of Rappahannock Co. Va. -1646-1692 page 51- " Will of Kenny 17 January 1676). Goochland County Records August 1736-William Lawson defendant in debt suit.

June 1738- William Lawson Suit dismissed. Barclay Lawson Barclay Lawson was known by several spellings of his name. His proper name was probably Bartholamew, but he was recorded as Bart, Barclay, Bartlett and etc. Bartholamew married Susana Simkins, daughter of John Simkins who married Elizabeth Rench/French in Henrico County Virginia in 1711, according to Court Records. Susanna was probably born ca 1720. Her father, John Simkins, sold land in Henrico Co. Va. 17 Septemvber 1737 to Thomas Owen. John Simkins then bought land (190 acres) on the North side of the James River in Goochland County Virginia. The deed was dated as the same day that he sold the first land. He sold the 190 acres on the 12 day of January 1743 six years after he obtained it. Then on 25 July 1746, he obtained a patent for 200 acres of land on Falling River in Brunswick County Virginia, which put him in the vicinity of William Lawson and his family. The date of the marriage of Barclay and Susanna Simkins is unknown, but her father's will named her as Susanna Lawson, and the will 1289 was dated 22 January 1754 (Deed Bk 1, page 119-121; also Bk 1 page 570). Barclay & Susanna (Simkins) Lawson had, at least, six (6) sons: 1. William Lawson 1290 , d. ca. 1811; m. to Sarah Hinton. 2. Lisha Lawson 1291 . He sold all his rights in the Estate of his grandfather to his mother Susanna Lawson. He also sold his rights to the Estate of his father, Barclay. (Deed Book 1, page 570). 3. Jacob Lawson 4.

(Campbell Co. was formed from Bedford. Bedford from Lunenberg and Lunenberg from Brunswick in 1746). This land had been willed to Barclay from William Rogers. Barclay and William Rogers were both deceased when the land was sold (It would seem that there must be a family relationship here. A search of William Rogers might turn up this connection.) In 1806, William sold land in Buncombe County N. C. and stated that he was living in Hawkins County Tennessee. He was living there when he died ca 1811. William & Sarah (Hinton) Lawson had four (4) children possibly more: 1.1. Thomas Lawson, b. 1799; d. 1811. 1.2. Isham Lawson, b. 1781; d. 1841 1.3. Stephen Lawson, b. 5 Apr 1790; d. 14 Mar 1873. 1.4.

But the grandma Jennie I knew was one of the sweetest people I know. She always called me her little Jennie. I was told I favored her. I named my daughter that she never met after her. I remember going to Maryville as a child she would walk to the store and end up getting a ride home from the bag boy or someone else who worked there. Everyone liked her. They never owned anything of value she rented a storefront apartment before she moved in with us. She loved life and the Lord more than any earthly possession she had or could have ever owned. She battled diabetes for years and on April 1,1978 she died in prayer at the hospital. She died talking to the Lord in her prayer.

Both volumes compiled by Judy Parsons Smith . It is BELIEVED that Thomas is the bro of old Doswell of Halifax Co. The main reason being he has a son named Dauswell and that name is carried on in his line as well. They are found living in the same places across VA. In 1787 Thomas and Dauswell leave Mont Co. and move to NC according to the tax records. However, this was Hawkins Co. NC, which shortly became Hawkins Co. TN. Some people assume that they really went into what we call NC today, however, that is not true 1414 . Checking the maps closely you can see that old Thomas and old Doswell still ended up living very near to each other. Doswell have lots of property on the Clinch River just across the line of what was then Hawkins Co. 1415 Ella Rae's Thomas and Nancy Unknown are not related in any way to old Thomas. He cannot be old Thomas' son. Why not son of Thomas & Nancy (Unknown) Rogers 1416 -- 1. Old Thomas was not named Reubin. 2. Old Thomas was not m. to an Elizabeth. 3.

In his will he divided his land equally between his two sons, Dauswell and Thomas, Jr. His wife, Jean in will, and four daughters were given portions. Although it appears on the surface that Thomas Rogers did a lot of moving from place to place, what happened was actually the shifting of lines on a map. • His name appears on an election return list dated 9 Mar 1790, Hawkins Co., TN 1418 . He was living on his farm in Hawkins County when a shift in the state line placed his farm into the state of Virginia for a brief time. It was during this time that he signed the Russell Co., VA petition. Thomas Rogers,Error! Bookmark not defined. Senior signed the petition to form Lee County, Virginia. The Legislature passed the petition on 25 Oct 1792. Thomas Rogers Error! Bookmark not defined. Sr. was residing in Russell County (an area that would become Lee Co.), Virginia 1419 . • Shortly, thereafter the state line shifted once again and returned his home to Hawkins Co. So as it can be seen - it appears that he moved around, but it was just the state line that did all the moving . 108 Because of the constant variance in the line separating VA from TN that Thomas was still living on the land in Hawkins, but at the time of this signing they may have put his land in VA thereby giving him the right to sign the petition. It would also help his relatives in Russell to have a courthouse nearer to them than 150 miles. However, there was NO Lee Co. at the time that this was signed. It was still Russell Co. 1420 In 1810, the following Rogers' are listed in Capt. Looney Co.

James Rogers left Kentucky with the law close behind. It appears that he had gotten a Miss Sword, who was not of age, in the motherly way. He crossed into West Virginia at Williamson, where he gained employment to build a railroad line between Huntington, WV and Williamson, WV. It was while working on the railroad, he meet a young watergirl by the name of Lillie Belle Mead. James Rogers returned to Kentucky, not wanting fate to take charge, to find that Miss Sword had delivered a baby girl. He was still unwelcome by Sword family. Discouraged and restless he returned to West Virginia, the railroad, and to Lillie Belle Mead. There he married to his "watergirl sweetheart at the age of 28.

Puckett’s Creek In The 1930’s By Glenn Elmer Baker – 27 Mar 2002 Current Events of my twilight years frequently open up the recesses of my mind to bring back vivid memories and mental pictures of past events and scenes of people, places, and things related to Puckett’s Creek during my younger years of the 1930’s. My earliest –confirmed memory-event is of a new heating stove to our home in 1929. I was 14 months old. The beauty of all seasons and generations pass on with time. Changes (on the earth, and in the earth) are continuous, and the Creator of all people, places, and things has made it so. In time, all must go the way of all the earth. One generation might sow, whether it be good or evil, and another generation might reap the harvest. It has been so with the happy days of my childhood and the place of my birth. Surely, angels of loving kindness and tender mercies were encamped round those compassionate, God-fearing people of Puckett’s Creek who sowed the good seed which helped provide all those things of precious memories to my generation. Imagine what the Garden of Eden must have looked like. Then, envision (on both sides of the road, creek and hollers) hillsides covered with row upon row of green fields of corn, or fields of sugar cane, or a wide variety of timber wood, edible birch, fruits, nuts, papaws, mountain tea leaves, grapes, and berries, with an abundance of vegetable gardens growing in the lowlands, surrounded on the east by the Lee County, Virginia communities known as Dominion, Virginia Lee, Saint Charles, and Wagner Town, on the south by Penn Lee and Maness, on the west by Stone Creek and Ely’s Creek, and protected on the north by a higher mountain range, called Little Black Mountain, the top of which divides Puckett’s Creek from Harlan County, Kentucky, Filled with wild game, herbs, edible vegetation of pokeweed, wild greens and other natural food supply, and you will have captured a mental view of the growing season on Puckett’s Creek during the 1930’s. Also, Puckett’s Creek was blessed with an abundance of rocks, both below ground and on the surface, which typified the rugged hardness of character that was ingrained in its inhabitants, who grubbed, plowed, planted, and worked this beautiful land. Employment at the coal mines was the major source of income for most families. Money-paying-jobs were scarce, but the use of barter and “payment-in-kind,” and the low cost of nature’s air conditioning and outdoor plumbing, all helped reduce the need for money. Eight years of elementary school (four separate grades in each room) were taught in the two-room Puckett’s Creek School House. This also served as the local Church House (for two different denominations), as well as the Community Civic and Social Center. Coal miners taught safety-first and first-aid classes there at night. Traveling entertainers performed there. School plays, Christmas and Easter programs, cakewalks, and such were held there. We always had good school teachers, who taught us that we should abandon our mountain slang and learn to pronounce words of English properly. {In late 1938 we moved to Maness, where I immediately found a job delivering newspapers until 1942. Meantime, I came back to finish the last few weeks of eighth and final year at Puckett’s Creek.} Automobiles were few; so, mostly we walked to and from our destination. In some places, the creek-bed and the roadway were one and the same. Because of the treacherous roads during the winter months, sometimes one of our school teachers found a home in the community which offered room and board. To keep his car out of the ditches, our mailman sometimes delivered mail by horse-back. Men held “workings” to improve the roads. We carried water from running-springs, dug from underground streams, and coal from a coal-bank. Without electricity, we used coal-oil and carbide. We grew our own corn. On Saturday mornings, a coal miner operated a corn mill with a gasoline powered engine. He dipped out of our bag as much shelled corn as he chose to charge fro grinding the remaining corn into corn-meal. My Grandfather (Pap) used to say, “These mountains will feed you if you let them.” Pap and my Grandmother (Maw) raised seven daughters and three sons to adulthood by following his own advice that the gave to my Dad: “Frank, grow corn, and you can have almost anything you want. You won’t have much money, but from corn and your garden vegetables, you will have just about everything you need to feed your family and raise livestock” (beef, pork, chicken, milk, butter, eggs, etc.). 133 Pap could not read or write, but had lots of common sense. He spoke “the King’s English” brought by immigrants from the King’s Court of England {words such as sasser (saucer), kivver (cover), quare (queer) pore (poor), etc.}. For his money needs, Pap worked in the coal mines during the winter months until early spring. Then, he and his family grubbed and cleared new ground fro the new growing season. Local midwives handled birthing. Pap handled treatment of sick livestock, castrations of animals, pulling of teeth, etc. I learned a lot from Pap. Pap taught me how to chew and how to smoke my Dad’s pipes when I was about five years old, while I spent several months “helping” him build a better road to his home. He and I agreed that Apple plug tobacco tasted a lot better than King-B twist or home-grown tobacco, and a pipe can burn your tongue a lot faster than cigarettes rolled from Buffalo, Bull Durham, or Old North State. He made me feel “all-grown-up.” Also, just by watching him, or by “helping” him when allowed, Pap showed or told me how to shoe a horse, build a sled, drive a wagon, how to kill a poisonous snake with a keen switch, how to split fence rails, build a rail fence without nails, how to make and install wooden roofing shingles for his home and other buildings, how to rob a bee hive, how to play a banjo, and much more. The intelligence, wisdom, and common sense of this strong quiet man did not come from books, nor could he be measured by I.Q. tests. The after-school job of daily cow-hunting was more enjoyable when done together by some of us boys and girls. Almost all families had at least one cow. Some of these cows went up into the mountains to feed. Each cowbell had a distinct sound. We assembled them in the lower Flanary Fields and drove them back home together for evening milking before dark. Our parents warned us, “if you run the cows, they won’t give down their milk.” Another enjoyment on some Sunday afternoons for a group of us boys was to venture up into the mountains, into the Flanary Fields and beyond, for whatever we might see, or do, or find, such as collecting Indian arrow heads and flint stones, or swinging from sturdy grapevines, or visiting the Coon Den (a gigantic rock-landmark), or crawling through the Peter Cave (a source of saltpeter for explosives during the Civil War), or just enjoying the beauty of seasonal changes and the exciting wonders of nature. Large families were common. Sharing with other people was a way of life. Portions of beef or pork were shared with neighbors during “killing times.” No money was needed for family participation in community events; such as, a molasses stir- off, corn shucking, corn shelling, apple peeling, bean stringing, hunting chestnuts, hazel nuts, chinquapins, walnuts, mulberries, persimmons, raspberries, blackberries, grapes, cherries, sarvis (service) berries, morels (hickory-chicken). Young people usually turned each event into a social party. Most families cured, or canned, or stored a bountiful supply of meats, vegetables, fruits, and nuts to last all winter or longer. The mountains were filled with an abundance of chestnut trees. Most chestnut trees were killed off by a blight before the 1930’s. The dead ones, too plentiful to allow space to fall, formed tepees. The few still living were hard to find. It is sad to admit that my generation cut down and killed off all the service (sarvis) berry trees; not just for the berries, but also fro the thrill of climbing to the top of the tree as it was being cut down by someone else and ride the tree to the ground as it fell. From buckeyes, we made yo-yo’s. From elderberry limbs, we made flutes. Laurel and ivy bushes were plentiful and provided some pleasure in several ways. Ivy bushes grew into may different shapes that made it easy to find just the right crooks and straights to make a slingshot, or a set of stilts. An abandoned railroad boiler was located beside the road next to our garden. This became a meeting place at night to build up a big fire and keep it safely contained. While laurel leaves were burning, they sounded as if we were rapidly shooting off firecrackers or a 22 rifle. That railroad boiler, which one served the railroad dinky-line that ran up Puckett’s Creek (before my time) disappeared sometime in the middle-late 1930’s after a junk dealer had brought his mule-drawn wagon to buy and haul away smaller junk items, such as used pots and pans. He waited patiently for several hours in front of our home while all of us kids in the neighborhood hunted up any kind of scrap metal we could find. I can recall that he paid me a quarter and a nickel. (At that time, the local general store, near the schoolhouse, sold a peanut-butter filled, hard taffy candy at 7 pieces for a penny.) Then the junk-man called all of us kids together and said, “All this junk metal is going to be sent to Japan in its war against China.” I have never forgotten his conclusion: “Mark my words. All this junk metal will some day be used against us.” His prophecy of “some day” became a reality on Sunday, December 7, 1941. Overnight visitors, especially by older women who were gifted at telling “tall stories,” were always welcome in our home, and even more so during harsh winter weather when survival was reality, not a TV show, and snow cream was a special treat. When families experienced sickness or death, the major difference between “visiting the sick” then and now is that then it meant helping that sick or bereaved family to feed and milk the cow, to slop the pigs, to gather the eggs and feed the chickens, to carry in the water and coal, to cook the meals, and with any other needed daily chores. In our home, my Dad had patent medicine for anyone in the family who became sick. First, there was a “bitter medicine” that could quickly cure any sign of constipation with one drop, but never more that three drops, in water. Sweet Spirits of Nitrate (I hated) was given for fever. Some home remedies depended up the kind of physical ailment. The fear of taking that medication removed any thought of faking a sickness to evade work, or school, or Church, but I did like my Mom’s medicine of sassafras tea. 134 When someone died in the community, my Dad or others stayed off their jobs at the coal mines to dig the grave. Free cemetery space was always available. My Uncle Samp, who operated a coal mine and a saw mill, built the casket. People, such as my Mother, helped to “lay out” the dead person, and also made crepe-paper flowers. Absent an ordained minister, my Dad conducted the funeral. No one was embalmed; so, the burial was always reasonably swift. All of this compassionate, needed assistance given to the bereaved family was without charge. People helping people, freely! My heart is saddened when I am reminded that my children, their children, and others have been deprived of those blessed “growing-up-years” that I and others experienced during the 1930’s. The natural beauty and tranquility of the Flanary Fields on Puckett’s Creek during the 1930’s stimulated my imagination about the Garden of Eden more than any place I have ever lived or been, from Japan, Guam, Hawaii, California, Texas, Florida, St. Louis, Chicago, Philadelphia, New York, Boston, and to some in between. It has been said that beauty is in the eye of the beholder. To me, Puckett’s Creek of the 1930’s was a worthy scene of angels sent from God. Two major events; namely, the disruptive changes brought about by World War Two in the early 1940’s, and the strip-coal- mining in/about the early 1970’s, have brought about drastic changes to Puckett’s Creek, to the extent that it can never again be the way I knew it during the 1930’s, and I cannot find words to describe it. Only pleasant memories remain. Soon they too shall pass; so, once again it can be said, “And it came to pass.” But, then, all sadness it turned to joy and gladness in knowing that a far better place than Puckett’s Creek is found in chapter 21 and 22 of the Book of Revelations; and, it is written in verse 22:17: “whosoever will, let him take the water of lifer freely.” It is a great comfort to know that the best is yet to be.

Reubin Standifer 1565 STAPLETON de Stapleton, de Staplelton, Stapilton, Stapylton, Stepelton The Stapleton family has been traced as far back as 600 B.C. The first use of the name was in 1052 A.D. in England at that time the spelling was Stapylton. The Stapleton family is of English origin in the 11th Century A.D. The original name of Stapleton is derived from an old English term which signifies "farm with a prominent pillar" The surname dates back to 1166 - Randulf Stapeltuna. Mention is made to a Robert de Stapiltun of Leicesterchire in 1327. William Stapulton was a resident of Northumberland in 1460. He founded Exeter College, Oxford. He was beheaded by Queen Regent Isabella. Sir Robert Stapleton was an English author and nobleman who translated many classics, and fought alongside Charles I at the battle of Edgehill in 1642 1566 . Stapleton in Gaelic is "Mac an ghaell" and translated means "Son of the foreigner” and originated in Scandinavia of Celtic or Viking background. I have read this in several books on the Stapleton name in Ireland. Heryon or Herman was seized of The Manor or Lordship of Stapylton upon Tyes (Tee River). Heryon Stapleton b. abt. 1025 was a Norman Seigneur granted lands through the Norman Conquest of England by William the Conqueror. The family was of Carlton, Wighill and Myton. The first Stapleton family was Norman but soon intermarried heavily with the Angles and Saxons.

The farm was located on Route 2, currently goes by the name of the Mack Roberts farm (1992) 1609 . The cemetery in which William is buried is located on this land. It has been proven that he married Mary Brown 12-8-1803 in Montgomery County, VA, this has been the topic of some confusion since Mary and her lawyer changed the date to 1793 when she was applying for George's Revolutionary War pension as his widow. For some reason in order for her to get the pension the wedding had to have taken place by 1794 1610 .

There was a time when the Baker and Stapleton families had a minor altercation. It seems that Jess Baker was taking a truck into the holler where he lived in order to remove coal from the mine on his property. Ada Stapleton, wife of Ken, did not like the idea of the truck passing across her property, even though it was a pubic roadway. She pulled a pistol on Jess and took a shot at him, missing. Jess was not one to give up a good fight, chucked a rock at back at her striking her up side the head. The argument was getting heated up further when a neighbor jumped into the fray. The neighbor pulled a gun on Jess, who then took out a knife to Molly "Mollie" (Hedrick) Stapleton defend himself. The neighbor ended up with a shredded coat. Shots were fired and Jess was shot in the neck (grazed). The neighbor was shot in the leg. It is my understanding that help was called for the neighbor, however, they found Jess injured and took him to the hospital instead of the neighbor, who later walked into the hospital for assistance. The feud did not end that day. For a number of years afterwards the Stapleton family would cross the street/look away any time that they passed a member of the Baker family. Apparently the feud did not last long, as I always remember visiting with Ada Stapleton when I was young. -- Judy Smith McKinney “Ken” & Ada (Green) Stapleton had (12) twelve children: 4.1.4.3.1.2.1.

Charles & Sarah (unknown) Stapleton had: James Stapleton James Stapleton, son of Charles & Sarah (unknown) Stapleton, b. 1799 (1850 census) or 1803 (1860 census). He lived in Hawkins Co., TN for most of his adult life and had a large family of seven sons and two daughters (proven by Civil War depositions, census records, etc). Without much luck so far. No one seems to claim the Tennessee Stapletons. 1671 . James Stapleton had nine (9) children: 1. Mr. Stapleton 2. Mr. Stapleton 3. Mr. Stapleton 4. Mr. Stapleton 5. Mr. Stapleton 6. Mr. Stapleton 7. Mr. Stapleton 8. Miss Stapleton 9. Miss Stapleton Stapleton Puzzles These are puzzling Stapletons that have been brought to my attention. Hmm, wonder where they fit into the overall picture. • William Stapleton m. to Nancy Tarrington, Rockingham Co., NC 1800 1672 • William Stapleton m. to Elizabeth Sizemore??? maybe TN (@1810), (had daughter Sarah Stapleton b. 1811. Elizabeth m. to 2 Larkin Willis and deeded land to Sarah from William in about 1819 or so. 1673 • James Stapleton of 1810 Montgomery Co., VA. Had four males in household. 12101-30111 1674 • Isaac Stapleton b. @1797 VA. m. to Nancy Sizemore (lived Hawkins, Co., TN. until after 1860 census 1675 . • Andrew Stapleton b. 1801 to 1810 Va. m. to Sarah Sizemore (lived Hawkins Co., TN) One of his sons claimed to be a cousin to one of James Stapleton's sons and he (Andrew) claimed to be an uncle 1676 . • Jos K. Stapleton in early court records of Hawkins Co., TN (@1823) 1677 • Thomas Stapleton b. 1814 Va. m. to Loucy Unknown @1850? living in Hancock, TN 1850 census. Also in household were James Neil Stapleton age 48, Isaac Stapleton, age 12, and George W. Stapleton, age 4. They do not appear in Tennessee census following 1850 1678 . • Thomas Stapleton b. @1805 Russell Co., Va. m. to 1 ?, had several children, m. to 2 Louanna Lawson in Meigs Co., TN and by 1850 had moved to Pope Co., IL. He had several children by both wives. Their names are strikingly similar to the children of James, Isaac, and Andrew Stapleton of Tennessee( but b. in VA) 1679 . • Edward Stapleton of Washington, Co., VA and Russell Co., VA 1680 . • Nancy Stapleton of Scott Co., VA 1681 . Maryland Stapleton’s John Stapleton John Stapleton, d. 1764, Harford Co., MD. John Stapleton had children: 1. Edward Stapleton 1682 (known son), b. 1711, McDeer Creek, Harford Co., MD 2. Thomas Stapleton 1683 (possible son), b. 1724 Thomas Stapleton b 1724 is seen in Maryland, North Carolina and finally in Virginia. Thomas m. to Sarah Crooks in Harford County, MD 1-15-1756 at St. George's Parish. Thomas Stapleton and Edward Stapleton b.1711 moved with each other from Maryland to Rowan County, NC where Edward died in 1780. Edward's son, Edward Jr. and Catherine Fraley and his family moved with Thomas to Virginia by way of Robertson County, TN. Edward Jr. eventually came to rest in Gibson County, IN. Edward Stapleton Sr. b. 1711 in Mcdeer Creek, Harford County, MD m. to Rachel Parks. Edward's father was John Stapleton who died in 1764 in Harford County, MD. Thomas b.1724 and Edward b.1711 are always close to each other but I have yet to 161 find proof that Thomas was the son of John although I know that Edward was his son. I also have the information that Thomas was m. to Sarah Crooks in Harford County, MD and lived there for the birth of three daughters before going to Rowan County, NC where Edward followed at about the same time. I have Thomas Stapleton of Russell Co VA, as the brothers of Edward Sr. They were the sons of John Stapleton of England. Edward moved from Rowan Co. NC. with father Edward Sr and Thomas Sr. Zacariah Salyer Sr and Isaiah Salyer, his son moved with them. All of them lived in Russell County, near Jacob and Joseph Castle of "Castle’s Woods," after it was formed from Washington County with most of their signatures on the petition. The Stapletons and Salyers owned land together in NC as well as Russell Co., VA. Could this be the same Thomas? -- Penny -- [email protected] Edward Stapleton I.

These hunts lasted upwards of eighteen months in length, during which time they hunted and explored the land, which would later become the states of Tennessee and Kentucky. They became known as longhunters due to these long excursions into the wilderness. Once in the wilderness they would make a base camp from which hunt. The groups separate into smaller groups of two or three men and went out to hunt over a large area. In 1761 they established a station camp at Wallen Creek. Some of the men who participated in this hunt were Daniel Boone, William Car, Isaac Bledsoe, Jack Blevins, William Blevins, Michael Stoner, James Harrod, Elisha Wallen. Elisha Wallen Error!

But later changed my opinion to Andrew. The Wade Eller collection, which I have found to be extensive and accurate listed Morris as Morris Baker, the son of ______, in other words he couldn't determine the father of Morris. His information is available on microfilm at the Ashe County Library. Eleanor Baker Reeves listed James Baker as the father of Morris Baker but gave no proof for the relationship, simply stating "James Baker was the first white man to hold title to land in what was to become Ashe County in the year 1773. "Eleanor did a Genealogy of the Cox Family but the Bakers listed in this book only go back to James Baker and Annie Cox. The individual that pointed me in the direction of Andrew Baker as the father of Morris Baker was Frieda Sims Nelson 1834 . Frieda died2/14/94. Her daughter Koleen Hassey wrote to me…"I’m sorry to say her research died with her. "I will send a copy of one of her letters showing some of her conclusions. Consider the following possibility…From The Land of Wilkes by Johnson J. Hayes, pages 29-31 the author is referring to the convening of the court in June 1778… (page 29) "On Tuesday, June 2, 1778, court met a the Mulberry Fields Meeting House according to adjournment, wit Benjamin Cleveland, Charles, Gordon, John Brown, and Joseph Herndon present. A commission from the Governor was presented appointing as additional justices of the peace, John Barton, John Witherspoon, Andrew Baker , James Tomkins, Micajah Pennington, and Abner Smalley, Esq."(pages 30-31) "The taxation system appears to be a sane and fair method to equalize the usually unpleasant tax burden, for we find no record of complaint or dissatisfaction in its operation. Each district had a Constable to summons the taxable persons and a Justice of the Peace to take the list and three men appraise it. The persons to whom these duties were assigned were reliable and substantial citizens who have left descendents, some of who still remain among us. We are unable to find any record which defines the boundaries of any districts but the names may suggest to the reader the general area involved. The first official list follows: (Beaver Creek in Ashe County)(South Fork of New River) 1st part(8) Captain Baker’s District Daniel Richardson William Colvard, Esq. Andrew Baker Error!

Beverly Watkins Benjamin Pennington, Constable James Ward Abijah Pennington locations were determined by a study of the Land Entry book which indicates the location of the land where these men lived.” The book refers to Andrew Baker Jr., Rev. Andrew Baker had a son named Andrew b. in 1777. His son would have been too young to be appointed to this taxation committee. Was Andrew Baker, Jr. the Rev. Andrew Baker? It would be great to have some hard evidence concerning Morris’ father. I hope we can find it. Warmest regards, Dave 172 AppAppendixendix B "Baker HOAX" This article, author unknown, was found while doing family research. I have provided it here as a bit of interesting "family history". It is good to when the information that you have in hand is truly of no value. -- Judy Smith Baker Heirs - Millionaires?? I've received a shipment of letters from England and discovered our USA Bakers aren't the only ones "rich" in family legends. Many of you have asked me about an unclaimed Baker estate in Pennsylvania I call the "Bakers' Hoax" or "Bakers' Folly". This estate supposedly belonged to Jacob Bakers' heirs and a vast search for his family was begun during the late 1800's. The controversy continued until the mid 1900's and is found in many of your genealogies. I felt it was past time to lay the legend to rest once and for all. A group of businessmen placed ads in many American newspapers asking Bakers everywhere to file for an estate in Philadelphia, and to claim their birthright. They requested Bakers to send in proof showing their family once resided in Pennsylvania or was "somehow" related to one Jacob Baker. This caused a flurry of letters both in the USA and to Europe asking for family members to help piece together their family history. The response was so overwhelming, the businessmen set up branch offices, including the ONTARIO BAKER HEIRS' ASSOCIATION in Canada, to handle the correspondence. The Bakers were collecting family history and many family groups hired historians to trace their family in hopes Jacob would be found on their charts. I'm sure many researchers made sure to locate Jacob on the family tree..."somehow". The possibility of being heir to millions and owning miles of prime land caused many of our otherwise level-headed Bakers to try for the brass ring. These family members numbered in the thousands and much of their life savings was spent tracing their family lineage and paying attorney fees. The Heirs' Association required various sums of money from EACH Baker several times a year. The money sent to the association paid the Board of Directors salary, several staff historians, newspaper ads, and filing fees. If you had a Baker ancestor you were welcome to send in your families' filing fee and attempt to claim the estate. Many branch offices were opened throughout the U.S.A. to handle claims locally. This was the largest heir hunt of the 19th Century...unfortunately... IT WAS A HOAX! You have to realize the "hoax" was so well planned, many lawyers, judges, and government officials were being taken in also! The association kept in touch with the heirs and sent progress reports on a regular basis, which added to their credibility. The Bakers sending in their family histories numbered thousands at the peak of the hoax. I won't go into the "fleecing" that went along with this scam. Many of our ancestors lost homes, farmland, and spent their life savings in travel expenses and attorney fees. A number of trustworthy U.S.A. lawyers and judges were ruined, due to their belief in the association Many Bakers had their county judges verify Bible records and transcribe the entry in full. (This is where many missing family pages from the Bible you have looked for went!) I do think we can be grateful to these "con artists" to a certain degree. The history of many Baker family groups were charted (some legitimately) instead of being lost. IF you run across mention of a 99 year lease, railroad property, hundreds of acres of property in the City of Philadelphia, coal mines, or mineral rights (especially in Philadelphia; but also anywhere in Pennsylvania) you may want to check your family letters and notes more closely. Chances are good some of your Bakers were part of the "hoax". Just because the estate was a sham doesn't mean researchers can't find a gold mine of information! Someone in Moms' Baker family wrote letters (intact) about ancestors in Ohio and Pa. and listed their names, birth dates, and married names of the girls. This helped me locate 300 years of ancestors! If not for the hoax, I doubt that many families would have kept notes in candy boxes, photo albums, coffee cans, books, and "memory boxes" every house used to have. There are many of you with letters from the association or from lawyers connected with them, I KNOW they look impressive but for the record!! IT WAS ALL A HOAX! NO ESTATE...NO MILLIONS OF DOLLARS...NO NOTHING! "Baker Estate" Proven Fake Fraud Convictions in US Postmaster-General Reports Heirs Deceived; Toronto Gave Freely To Investigate Claims. The following article was taken from an Ontario, Canada newspaper dated Thursday, August 19, 1937. The name of the publication was illegible. Take it finally, from the Postmaster-General of the U.S.A. - there is not now, nor ever was there a Baker Estate in Philadelphia, which would be a gold mine to countless heirs! 173 "The most magnificent swindle of the 20th Century", the Washington correspondent of the Philadelphia Record says in reporting the Farley announcement that "Twenty-four members of the various groups engaged in this fraud against the public have been brought to trial and convicted." In fact, it goes back into the 19th Century, for 30 years ago, or thereabouts, Bakers were York County residents who already saw them- selves rolling in riches on their shares from the huge property in the heart of the Quaker City, that would any day now, fall into the hands of the heirs of Col. Jacob Baker, whose services in that Revolutionary War had been generously rewarded by Government: grants which the course of time had transformed into gilt-edge, built-upon corner lots. Behind the brief Farley statement, said the Record, was the story of a gigantic racket; carried on through the United States mails, which netted its' operators more than $1,000,000 and numbered among its' victims gullible citizens in every State of the Union, Canada, Mexico, and Cuba. Toronto Gave Freely That million dollars must be a modest estimate. In 1933, the president of Toronto's Bakers Heirs Association told the Ontario Securities Commissioner that from 1922-1931 more than $100,000 was collected by local heirs associations and $223,000 had gone into the hands of one Seligman, of Pittsburg, to investigate claims. This same president of the Baker Heirs was five years previously sentenced to one year in jail on the charge of theft of $_0,778 (?) from the Drake-Watson-Springer Heirs, a sister association , of which also he was president. It was testified then that $174,000 had been collected from these "heirs". Subsequent to the sentencing, 500 Baker "heirs" met here, expressed their continued confidence in their President and discussed financial arrangements to be made with their Pittsburg investigator. In November 1929, the Attorney General's Department announced that until Seligman had returned substantially more than $150,000 received as retaining fee, the department refused to believe there was anything to the Baker Estate, and that the stop order imposed the year before to prevent.... (I.E. article cut off here) Forged Wills A faked will, dated December 27, 1830, was the lure which caught thousands of heirs, the Washington correspondent explains, for it provided, operators of the racket assured their victims, indisputable proof the existence of a Baker or Becker Estate in the very center of Philadelphia, worth $80,000,000 and included property on which now stand Independence Hall, Franklin Square, the United States Mint, the Broad Street Station, and the abutments of the Delaware River Bridge. To make the proposition even more attractive, the promoters added to those properties the grave of Benjamin Franklin and 11,000 acres of valuable coal, lead, and zinc lands throughout Pennsylvania. The will, claimed to have been executed by one "Jacob Baker", purported to dispose of the fabulously valuable properties to the Baker heirs. Basis of the racket in the United States was to solicit money through the mails for the presumed purpose of probating the amazing document. If the person solicited was not named Baker or Becker, he was offered a "share" of the mythical estate or perhaps an "enrollment" at $10 or $20 each. Even memberships with monthly dues were collected from those who hoped eventually to collect several thousand per cent profit. Paper A Give-Away? "Inspectors assigned to this work thought it very unusual that an authentic will to such valuable property should remain unprobated for almost 100 years," Postmaster-General Farley announced, " the alleged will was obtained through court proceedings and submitted to analysis by a chemical engineer and handwriting expert." As a result, post- office inspectors discovered what they suspected: The paper on which the will was written was not manufactured until 50 years after its' date. The signatures were forged. As the will and representations of the promoters called for property throughout Pennsylvania as part of the mythical inheritance, post office inspectors were obliged to trace the name of "Baker" or "Becker" and various properties in all the 67 Counties of the State, from 1683 to the present time. ( NOTE THIS FACT: THE INSPECTORS HAD TO TRACE THE Baker AND BECKER SURNAME FROM 1683 TO MID-1920'S! Crystal) After 14 months of investigation, the inspectors discovered: (1) None of the property mentioned was owned by a Jacob Baker or by any other Baker at the time the will was purported to have been executed; (2) There was no vast unsettled or undistributed Baker or Becker estate anywhere in the State of Pennsylvania. Genealogy Traced Ramifications of the racket, it was discovered, were almost limitless. For example, some promoters claimed that Jacob Baker or some other Baker executed a 99-year lease to one Martin Yates for property upon which now stand most of the buildings in downtown Philadelphia. That lease, expiring next year, would, of course, be incredibly valuable. 174 Another method by which money was claimed, it came out in the trials, was in the compilization and sale of so-called "genealogical charts". Needless to say, they traced ancestors of the victim back to the Baker or Becker of whom they were supposed to be an heir. Charges for those charts ranged from $1 to $50.00. "Associations or Leagues" were organized, memberships to which were sold to gullible citizens in every state from $1 to $20.00. The initial payment, however, was far from the total extracted from individual victims. The investigation revealed several whose contributions amounted to as much as $7,000. The inspectors found promoters who had represented various banks and trust companies in Philadelphia as holding millions of dollars for "Baker Heirs" in the form of rentals and other collection from the 99-year leases, executed by the Baker ancestors. Investigators discovered not a single penny was being held by any of the institutions mentioned. Search of Army and Navy files produced proof, however, that there never was a Jacob Baker from Pennsylvania who served as a commissioned officer in the Revolutionary War and that no land grants were made by the United States Government to any Captain or Colonel or any other Baker in Pennsylvania on account of such asserted service. No less than 44 different organizations had been engaged in this gigantic racket at one time, it was revealed. Most of them, after conducting their schemes for a comparatively brief period, would fold up when pressure became to great. Until the U.S. Post Office Department took a hand last year, the reproduction process had been going on for years. "THERE IS NO Baker ESTATE AND THERE NEVER HAS BEEN SUCH AN ESTATE THAT COULD POSSIBLY BE THE SUBJECT OF SUCH SCHEMES" Farley concludes, "Something that started as a rumor grew into a gigantic fraud. Thousands of people were deceived into contributing their time and money for many years without any return or possibility of reward. Baker TRIAL INFORMATION MISSING I have tried to locate the records of the "Bakers' Heirs Association" and the trial exhibits once housed in the Library of Congress. The records showing genealogical data from ALL Bakers and Beckers in Pa. could really help most Baker researchers! I was told, by a person that attended the Baker Trials that there were several filing cabinets worth of Baker information. These files included Bible records, charts both from the association and from "Heirs". Several of us have spent years working on the "Baker Hoax" trying to get researchers to forget looking for the phony estate and to search for the only "riches" the hoax left...Baker and BECKER Genealogical Information! The files were kept in every state in the U.S.A., these were besides the genealogical files used for the trials! Every year a new crop of genealogists start searching for their Bakers and guess what? Most times, the "Baker Hoax" or a letter found in an ancestors' box of letters starts the "Hoax" all over again! I'd like the information from the association found and also the "missing" court records! Maybe then, the "Baker Hoax" would end once and for all! Philadelphia Inquirer - Tues. March 12, 1974 Baker information was listed in the Action Line 3-12-74 Question from: L.B. Fort Erie, Ont., Canada re: Baker Fortune (Hoax) While in the process of making a family tree, I discovered that my gr-gr-gr-gr-grandfather was named Jacob Baker, born in 1731. Since then I have heard that he bequeathed a vast fortune that can still be claimed by his heirs. I have heard that this fortune includes huge pieces of Center City Philadelphia. I have also heard that many Baker heirs have made attempts to claim the fortune, and that the whole thing turned out to be a hoax. Could you tell me the facts behind this matter? So, the great Baker Estate Swindle once again rears its ugly head. We thought we'd seen the last of it in the 1940's,when local, state, and Federal government investigators exposed it as a fraud. Conmen were bilking Baker descendants out of money from as early as 1860. What they did was promise, for a fee, to act as an agent for anyone who said he was an heir to Jacob Baker, who had allegedly left an estate- mostly real estate- valued between $200 million and $3 billion. The story goes that Col. Jacob Baker, a surgeon in the Continental Army during the American Revolution, was rewarded by George Washington and a grateful new-born U.S. government with a grant of 11,000 acres of mineral-rich land in 17 Pennsylvania counties, plus Philadelphia, including the present day site of City Hall and John Wanamaker's department store. Baker heirs were contacted by promoters and told the old Jacob Baker will had been uncovered in the Philadelphia Orphans' Court , and that if they would contribute to the "legal fees" the promoters would seek to secure them their share of the estate. An estimated 500,000 PERSONS fell for the hoax (the Bakers were apparently a prolific clan) and paid the assorted swindlers some $25 million. Philadelphia Orphans' Court records indicate that the estate of a Jacob Baker, Revolutionary War Veteran, was disposed of around 1847. His fortune totaled a whopping $6,000. 175 For The Record! In two trials in Federal Court in Pittsburgh, Pa., during May and June, 1937, people from: Washington, D.C.; Indiana, Pa.; Johnstown, Pa.; Davidsville, Pa.; Greensburg, Pa.; were convicted. (10 people). Also, from Pittsburgh, Pa.; Portland, Oregon; Pana, Illinois; DeSoto, Kansas; Springfield, Missouri; and Middletown, Virginia. (9 people) At the trial that lasted from April 1, to April 16, 1937, six were convicted from these places: Altoona, Pa.; Harrisburg, Pa.; Mendon, Missouri; Greensburg, Pa. Now, these towns were a few of the places the phony association kept their records! NOTE: There are STILL records out there from private citizens that worked with this association. Most were innocent people that really believed they were doing good for their family by backing the association. They collected charts for the association and kept them on file (as instructed) before making charts for the association to take to Pa. The Linn, County, Missouri (Mendon, Mo.) and Winigan, Missouri, Bakers can have a treasure hunt! Also, info. on W.H. Baker (may have been a lawyer from Independence, Missouri) can be checked for a collection of Baker information, due to this association. I've spent years trying to track down these records for Baker Family members. They are probably in someone’s' attic or basement and it will take someone from these towns to locate them! Once found, they will fill in information on many Baker Family Groups. Keep in mind...500,000 or so Bakers, handed their family info. over to the paid genealogists. Actual pages from your families Bible, hand written letters, and charts filled out and signed (verified) by local doctors and judges that vouched for your ancestors' lineage. (Most filing for this estate, really felt they had to do everything by the book to have a "claim" on the estate) The estate was a hoax but the info. Bakers' used to file was real. 176 Appendix C Baker Bible Page 177 Appendix D List of MelungeMelungeonon Names *Collins/Collins, *Gibson/Gipson, *Mullins/Mellon, *Goings, Bolden, Bunch, Fields, Freeman, Bean, Bolin, Bowlin, Bowling, Coal, Cole, Delph, Gone, Goodman, Gowns, Hale, Jones, Minor, Moore, Moseley, Nichols, Ramey/Remy, Sexton, Williams * = common Melungeon names Melungeon Places 1835 State: Town, County: Year: Group: NC Orange Co 1755 Wilkes Co 1782 Robeson Co SC Buford, Lancaster Co TN Sneedville, Hancock Co 1790 NewMan's Ridge Hawkins Co 1830 Tazewell, Claiborne Co Hamblen Co Rhea Co Roane Co Loudon, Loudon Co VA Lee Co.

The Melungeons are most likely the descendants of the late 16th century Portuguese and Turks stranded on the Carolina shores when the settlement of Santa Elena, South Carolina was abandoned by the Spanish. They later intermarried with the Powhatan, Pamunkey, Chickahominy and Catawba Indians. After being abandoned in the outlying Spanish forts, they settled in the Appalachians and further intermarried with the Cherokees and much later with the northern European settlers; primarily the Scotch-Irish, becoming part of the American Melting Pot. The word Melungeon is both Portuguese, meaning "white person" and Turkish, meaning, "cursed soul." The National Melungeon Registry has been established to collect and preserve Melungeon genealogical and historical information.

He had none by his second wife, Katey. On one page he wrote in two lines his name and birthday: "Robert Baker, Senior was b. March 1 st 1774". Between his name and his birthdate someone has added probably at a much later date, the ink is much darker, "Catherine Baker was b. 10 May 1776." Did Katey Bolin do this? There is no indication the first wife's name was erased.
