    THE CACAPON SETTLEMENT: 1749-1800 31 THE CACAPON SETTLEMENT: 1749-1800 31 5 THE CACAPON SETTLEMENT: 1749-1800 The existence of a settlement of Brethren families in the Cacapon River Valley of eastern Hampshire County in present day West Virginia has been unknown and uninvestigated until the present time. That a congregation of Brethren existed there in colonial times cannot now be denied, for sufficient evidence has been accumulated to reveal its presence at least by the 1760s and perhaps earlier. Because at this early date, Brethren churches and ministers did not keep records, details of this church cannot be recovered. At most, contemporary researchers can attempt to identify the families which have the highest probability of being of Brethren affiliation. Even this is difficult due to lack of time and resources. The research program for many of these families is incomplete, and this chapter is offered tentatively as a basis for additional research. Some attempted identifications will likely be incorrect. As work went forward on the Brethren settlements in the western and southern parts of old Hampshire County, it became clear that many families in the South Branch, Beaver Run and Pine churches had relatives who had lived in the Cacapon River Valley. Numerous families had moved from that valley to the western part of the county, and intermarriages were also evident. Land records revealed a large number of family names which were common on the South Branch, Patterson Creek, Beaver Run and Mill Creek areas. In many instances, the names appeared first on the Cacapon and later in the western part of the county.

SHAFER ADMINISTRATIVE SECRETARY SANDRA L. STEINER BALL J. F. LACARIA BISHOP ASSISTANT TO THE BISHOP February 24, 2016 Dear Members and Friends of the West Virginia Conference, “You will go out in joy and be led forth in peace; and the mountains and hills will burst into song before you, and all the trees of the field will clap their hands.” Isaiah 55:12 Deploy! That is the theme of the 2016 Annual Conference. When I arrived in 2012, we talked about new beginnings. At that time, we committed ourselves to take a serious look together to discern how we could discover, develop, and deploy passionate spiritual clergy and lay leadership for the purpose of leading us into being a spiritual breath of fresh air bringing transformation to God’s people, the church, and the world. For this annual conference, “deploy” means much more than being sent out or assigned to do something. Picture “deploy” as bursting forth, like a milk weed pod bursts open to send seeds out. To “deploy” is to recognize and to take action – bursting forth – responding to our call to make Christ known in such a way that others will be “birthed” into discipleship. It is with this theme and mission in mind, that I issue the call to join me for our Annual Conference gathering on the campus of West Virginia Wesleyan College on June 9 - 12. As I visit churches and districts, I continue to discover a thirst among people to be co-creators with God, to burst forth to make Christ known, and to walk with people into discipleship.
