  • The Cacapon Settlement: 1749-1800 31
    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.

It is also rich in history. The county’s many historic farms, villages, and winding country roads contribute to a strong “sense of place” that appeals to residents and visitors alike. The people who have called Somerset County home for thousands of years have created a unique cultural environment unlike any other. From the ancient settlements in the “Turkeyfoot” region of the south, to the rolling farm country of Brothers Valley in the center, to the coal patch towns of the north, history is everywhere in Somerset County. Something interesting always seems to lie just around the next bend in the road. The county’s development was shaped by its hydrology and rugged topography. Although its forested hills hid immeasurable mineral wealth just below the surface they also limited the areas suitable for settlement and agriculture.
