Download or read book A History of Middle New River Settlements and Contiguous Territory written by David E. Johnston and published by Genealogical Publishing Com. This book was released on 2009-06 with total page 566 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At the time of its first settlement in the mid-1600s, the New River Valley was part of the vast, unexplored wilderness stretching from the Alleghenies westward to the Mississippi River. This expansive history by David Johnston, spanning the years 1654 to 1905, focuses on the early settlements along the New River in the area that encompasses present-day Mercer and Monroe counties, West Virginia, and Tazewell and Giles counties, Virginia. This volume is first and foremost a chronicle of the people of the Middle New River settlements: the dangers they faced in their first explorations; their roles in the French and Indian War and American Revolution; and their history during and after the Civil War. Dispersed throughout are thumbnail sketches of the early residents of the area.

This book was released on 2017-09-16 with total page 568 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of Middle New River Settlements and Contiguous Territory Mercer County as originally created, and as it now exists, embraces territory which was formerly a part of that vast do main known as Augusta, later, and in succession, Botetourt, Fincastle, Montgomery, Greenbrier, Wythe, Monroe, Tazewell, and Giles Counties. The early history of the County, and that of its settlers and people, is largely common all those who occupy the territory referred to. Their long sufferings, dangerous encounters with the wild beasts and the savages, their patient endurance, their history during and after the close of the war between the States, their manly and heroic efforts to restore and reestablish their rights as citizens of a free Republic, not less renowned than their chivalric deeds in war, deserve a place in the annals of history to be handed down to succeeding generations, as examples of valor, heroism and fortitude worthy of emulation. The desire usually possessed by civilized men to learn the 'history and character of their ancestors, who they were, andwhence they came, excites regret that this history is the more often involved in obscurity; no one has thought it necessary to keep a correct record of the family. Tradition alone, depended upon to supply the place of re corded facts, is often so obscured by the efflux of time and other causes, that it cannot always be relied upon as a safe guide to truth. Yet when tradition and known facts are closely coupled together, the former is greatly strengthened and becomes much more reliable.

We are, gentlemen, with the most perfect esteem and regard, Your most obedient servants," From the American Archives,4th Series, 1st Volume, page 1166 The men who made and promulgated this declaration were then, and afterwards became among the most distinguished citizens who crossed the Alleghanies, and were first and foremost in fomenting and sustaining our glorious revolution. Evidence is not wanting that between 1755 and 1758 some of these men, viz., the Crocketts, McGavocks and others, among them the Grahams, Tates and Sawyers had located in the section of country now in Pulaski and Wythe counties, but on account of Indian incursions were driven back into the Rockbridge country from whence they came, and that later they came again and remained permanently. It is generally understood that the Crocketts McGavocks, Grahams and Sawyers were all of Scotch-Irish extraction. Among these people were found the bravest and most valiant soldiers in all our wars. In October, 1776, the general assembly of Virginia by an act abolished the county of Fincastle, and out of its territory created the counties of Kentucky, Washington and Montgomery. The following is the boundary lines of said counties as given in said act, viz: "That from and after the last day of December next ensuing, the said county of Fincastle shall be divided into three counties: that is to say, all that part thereof which lies to the south and westward of a line beginning on the Ohio at the month of the Great Sandy Creek and running up said creek and the main line beginning at the Cumberland Mountain where the line of north or northeasternly branch thereof to the Great Laurel Ridge or Cumberland Mountain thence, south-westardly along the said mountains to the line of North...
