  • Churches of the Valley : Or, an Historical Sketch of the Old Presbyterian Congregations of Cumberland, and Franklin Counties, In
    CHURCHES OF THE VALLEY AN HISTORICAL SKETCH THE OLD PRESBYTERIAN CONGREGATIONS CUMBERLAND AND FRANKLIN COUNTIES, IN PENNSYLVANIA. REY. ALFRED NEVIN, OF THE PRESBYTERY OF CARLISLE. "Walk about Zion, and go round about her: tell the towers thereof. Mark ye well her bulwarks, consider her palaces, that ye may tell it to the generation following."—Ps. xlviii. 12, 13. PHILADELPHIA: JOSEPH M. WILSON, NO. 228 CHESTNUT STREET. 1852. Entered, according to Act of Congress, in the year 1852, BY JOSEPH M. WILSON, In the Clerk's Office of the District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania. C. SHERJIAN, PRINTER, 19 St. James Street. THIS VOLUME IS DEDICATED PRESBYTERIAN HISTORICAL SOCIETY. PREFACE. The early history of the old Presbyterian Churches of Cumberland Valley is fast growing dim. Many of those in whose memories interesting facts and incidents were treasured^ are now dead ; and others, to whom they were intrusted by tradition, are rapidly passing away. That it is desirable to have embodied in an accessible form, the recollections and records connected with the origin and progress of these venerable congregations, none, it is believed, will cjuestion, who appreciate the ties which bind them to the past, or the duty which they owe to the future. These churches, are almost the only relics of an- tiquity that are to be met with in our new country, and for this reason, to say nothing of their deep religious associations besides, an effort should be made to save them from oblivion. From the Presbyterial Records it is evident, that the VI PREFACE. importance of such a measure was felt at an early day.

As a protection against the inroads of Indians. He had several crude forts, or block houses, constructed in the Valley, one of which was in the county of Botetourt, on the James River, where Pattonsburg was subsequently located. These forts became the scene of memorable events. Capt. John Smith, with 17 men, held a fort called Vaux’s Fort or Fort Vause/Vass/Vance/ Vaus, which was located on the headwaters of the Roanoke River, about 10 miles from where Christianburg now stands. This fort was attacked by a large number of French soldiers & Shawnee Indians. After a brave resistance for 3 days, the garrison agreed to surrender the fort, upon stipulation allowing them to return to their homes.

BY (Silbevt Ernest Swope, Author of '*A History of the S'wopc Family/' With an Introduction by REV. EBENEZER ERSKINE, D. D. NEWVILLE. PA., TIMES STEAM PRINTING HOUSE: 1898. II PREFACE. In presenting this little liistory of the Big Spring Presbyte- rian Church, we feel quite safe in saying that we are giving all that is obtainable regarding the congregation, and more than we expected to find when we began our work. Owing to the fact that there were no records in possession of the congregation prior to 1830 except an old trustees minute book, the prospect for ob- taining data was not very encouraging. However, by careful inquiry among the old families of the church and other means, we were enabled to find that herein given. Through the kind- ness of Miss Jennie W. Davidson, a great granddaughter of Rev. Samuel Wilson, we were given permission to examine a great mass of old family papers, the accumulation of more than a cen- tury. Among these papers we were fortunate enough to find much valuable matter, relating not only to the ministry of Rev. Samuel Wilson but also to that of some of his predecessors. No regular session books seem to have been kept by the early pas- tors, all the records found being on detached pieces of paper.
