4351 According to "History of Calhoun Co WV 1989," p. 178, John Nelson Vincent and family moved from Marion County to Calhoun County in about 1883. VINCENT, John Nelson (I10462)
 
4352 According to "History of Doddridge County," p. 362, William Jett and his wife Sarah came to American from Wales shortly before the American Revolution, settling along the Potomac River below the city of Washington, and he died in 1817 in Fauquier County, Virginia. But Minnie Kendall Lowther's "Ritchie County in History and Romance," p. 275, reports that he was born in Fauquier County in 1764, and that he was still living there as of April 1834, the date of his military pension application.

He served his adopted country as a soldier in the 8th Virgina Regiment. The Adjutant General's Office shows that he enlisted for two years on Feb 3 1776. His name still appears on a muster roll, dated Feb 4 1778, showing that he was still present. William & Sarah had six children. 
JETT, William (I15778)
 
4353 According to "Representative Men and Old Families of Rhode Island," published in Chicago, IL in 1908 by J. H. Beers & Co., the immigrant Bliven ancestors were three brothers, Joshua, James and Edward Bliven, all coming from England and arriving in Salem, Massachusetts before 1650. According to this account, James remained in Salem, Edward's whereabouts are not mentioned, and Joshua is reported as being in Newport by 1669, and it mentions that his sons, James and Edward, both settled in Westerly, RI. This "history" of the Bliven family is, unfortunately, not documented, yet has been copied by many genealogists since 1908 and perpetuated as truth. There is, however, no proof for this origin of the Bliven family. Therefore, this lineage begins with this Edward Bliven of Westerly, RI. NOTE: There is an Edward Blevin [sic] in Oyster Bay, Long Island, NY, who makes his mark as a witness to a deed of James Blevin [sic], dated 1687. An Edmon Blevin also is a witness 12 Apr 1687. BLIVEN, Edward (I14529)
 
4354 According to "U.S. Presbyterian Church Records, 1701-1970," Granville Stinespring was baptized on 17 March 1833. STINESPRING, Granville L. (I47603)
 
4355 According to "West Union WV Cemeteries (Doddridge County)," published in July 1990, there are headstones for Eldridge Spurgeon and his wife Evelyn in the Spurgeon family plot at Masonic Memorial Park Cemetery at Crystal Lake (West Union), Doddridge County. Both markers were reported to have the birth date 1922, but with no death date. However, we were informed by immediate family that their burials were instead made in Pleasant View Memory Gardens in Martinsburg, where they and their son had taken up residence. SPURGEON, Eldridge (I17106)
 
4356 According to a Wilmington monthly Quaker meeting, on July 16, 1777, Elijah Musgrave was disowned by the Quaker society: "Hath so far erred as to remove to a distant part without taking the advice of friends and without a certificate, and accomplished his marriage before a magistrate to his first cousin." From this it can be concluded that the maiden name of his wife Basheba was probably also Musgrave, but there is no indication in those records as to exactly who her father was. MUSGRAVE, Elijah (I9724)
 
4357 According to documents in her father's Civil War file, following his death and the remarriage of her mother, Semantha (sic) Tucker, b. Oct 7 1862 (sic), was made a ward of Charles C. Davis (1831-1910). Relationship, if any, of Charles C. Davis to the Tucker or Stout family is not known.
(NOTE: Samantha Tucker's birth date is given in the 1900 Census as Oct 1863, and the date on her headstone is also 1863.) 
TUCKER, Samantha (I94727)
 
4358 According to documents on file at Doddridge County Court House, Henry Schmidt filed his intent to become a citizen of the United States on 19 Mar 1851. In his application, he stated that he was born in Hesse, Germany, in 1816, that he immigrated to the U.S. in 1839, and that he resided in Maryland until moving to Doddridge County in 1843. He was granted American citizenship on 21 May 1855 in Doddridge County, renouncing any allegience to the Prince of the Electorate of Hesse in the Confederation of Germany. His character references were Joseph H. Diss Debar and Job Stout. His name was entered as Henry Schmidt in the application, but as Henry Smith in the final citizenship document, on file in Law Book 1, page 354, in the office of the Doddridge County Circuit Clerk.

In 1863, Peter G. VanWinkle, chair of the committee established to create a state seal, commissioned Doddridge County resident Joseph H. Diss Debar to carry out that task. Diss Debar presented the committee with a seal picturing a miner with a pick signifying industry, and a farmer with an axe signifying agriculture. He used Henry Joseph Smith, a resident of Cove in Doddridge County, as his model for the farmer. [Model for the miner was reportedly William "Billy" Patton of Bear Fork in nearby Gilmer County.] Centered between the farmer and the miner is a stone bearing the date of West Virginia's admittance to the Union, June 20, 1863. The stone, symbolizing strength, is complemented by two crossed rifles and a Phrygian cap indicating liberty. Below the scene is the motto written in Latin "Montani Semper Liberi" - Mountaineers Are Always Free. On September 26, 1863, the state legislature approved Diss Debar's seal.

SCHMIDT, Joseph Henry (I41120)
 
4359 According to documents on file at Doddridge County Court House, Jacob Ruppert filed his intent to become a citizen of the United States on 19 Mar 1851. According to his statement, he was born in 1805 in Westhoffen, Grand Duchy of Hesse Darmstadt in the Confederation of Germany. He immigrated to the U.S. in 1841, lived in Maryland one year, then moved to Doddridge County (Law File #175). He was granted American citizenship on 21 May 1855 in Doddridge County. His character witnesses were Joseph H. Diss Debar and Job Stout. Recorded in Law Order Book 1, pages 353 and 354, on file at the office of the Doddridge County Circuit Clerk. RUPPERT, Jacob Anton (I28748)
 
4360 According to Doddridge County death records, Elizabeth Richards Keister died in child birth on 25 Jan 1853 at Middle Island, Doddridge County, born in Fauquier County, the daughter of Thom. & C Richards. But a handwritten Gilmer County death record states that she died on 25 Jan 1854 at Cove Creek, born in Harrison County, daughter of Isaac Richards, cause of death obstetric. There is also a corresponding typed death record entry for her in Gilmer County. On the line below her entry is and entry for the death of her brother-in-law, George W. Keister, age 27 yr 5 mo, born in Pendleton County, cause of death consumption. Gilmer County birth records contain an entry for an unnamed son of Jacob & Elizabeth Keister, born 9 Dec 1853 at Cove Creek. Comparing the various conflicting records, it appears that the correct death date for Elizabeth is 25 Jan 1854. RICHARDS, Elizabeth (I137775)
 
4361 According to Don Norman and Stella & Elizabeth Cottrill's "Descendants of John Jacob Richards," following Arnold Richards' August 1782 death at the hand of Indians, his "daughters were bound in court to a Thomas McCann March 19, 1787, in Harrison County, VA. The girls chose Robert Lowther as their guardian." However, Harrison County Minute Book 1784-1792, p. 319, 20 May 1788 contains the following entry pertaining to his daughter Sudna: "Ordered That Sudney Richards be bound to Isaac Richards untill she arrive to full age, she being twelve years of age the 24th day of March last."

Regarding the death of Sudna's father Arnold, the following is found in Corliss Fitz Randolph’s "A History of the Seventh Day Baptists in West Virginia":
"Dr. Bee further states that he himself remembers an old lady by the name of Childers, nee Richards, of Meat House Fork, saying that she stood on a stump and saw the Indians scalp her father." 
RICHARDS, Sudna (I47021)
 
4362 According to Eli Hooper's death record, he was born in March 1849. His father, John Hooper, married Elizabeth Gain one month later. It's possible that Elizabeth's was his mother if the information on Eli's death record is wrong. LOUGHERY, Jane (I74469)
 
4363 According to family legend, Elizabeth Johnson was a Cherokee Indian. JOHNSON, Elizabeth (I48881)
 
4364 According to family legend, he returned from the war complaining of stomach pains, and died not long afterwards. LEGGETT, David Musgrave (I6193)
 
4365 According to family legend, the natural father of one or more of Bertha Davis' children was Daniel W. Davis, in whose home she was listed as a servant, unmarried with two children, in the 1900 Census. Following Bertha's 1901 death, Daniel and his wife Harriet, who had no children of their own, raised Bertha's children. But the birth record of Bertha's oldest child, Harvey Davis, identifies his father as John Mitchell Ross. The delayed birth record of her second child, Ottie Davis, filed by John Ross' sister Mary, omits the father's name. It could not have been John Ross, as he had died three years before, marital status single. Ottie's marriage record states that he was the son of Daniel W. & Bertha Davis. Only the delayed birth record of Bertha's third child, Gracie, indicates "D. W. Davis" as the father, but that relationship was not reflected in the 1910 Census for either Gracie or Ottie. There is no record of Bertha ever having married. Daniel and Harriet Davis remained married until her death in 1926. As great-great-grandchildren of Nathan Davis and Ann Gifford, Bertha and Daniel W. Davis were third cousins.

4369 According to family members, Mary Garrison apparently never married the father of her children, but it is accepted that he was George Cottrell. However, Findagrave reports that the father of her daughter Cora Garrison was Edgar Davis. Mary's headstone reads "Mary E., dau. of A. & M. Garrison."

4371 According to Hanna, "Ohio Valley Genealogies," p. 44, Daniel O. Gaston died unmarried. Marriage information given here was provided by Peter J. Topoly and Jane Carson Topoly, citing highly reliable sources. Family: Daniel Oliver GASTON / Elizabeth TAYLOR (F3179)
 
4372 According to Hanna's "Ohio Valley Genealogies," p. 44, this John Gaston died unmarried. Researchers Peter J. Topoly and Jane Carson Topoly have reported that he married Sarah Jane Moore on Oct 1 1862 in Smith Ferry, Beaver Co, PA, but they also report a death date for him of Jul 22 1862 in Dubuque, Iowa, with burial in Linwild Cemetery in Dubuque. Pending further clarification, we leave it as reported by Hanna. GASTON, John (I3545)
 
4373 According to Harrison County court records, in April 1799, Benjamin Webb emancipated a "Negro girl" named Hannah. WEBB, Benjamin Franklin (I63494)
 
4374 According to Harrison County deed records (Deed Book 27, page 259), on November 8, 1838, John & Susan Dotson (John Buskirk Dotson & Susan Sayre Dotson) sold to Charles Twyman 50 acres of land in Harrison County, price $125. The property was referred to in the deed as Locust Point. There is some evidence that Locust Point was once known as Willow Island.

Analysis of the 1840 Census shows that the Charles Twyman family was living in present-day Doddridge County. The exact location would therefore be the Locust Point identified in the foregoing deed, and formerly known as Willow Island. Subsequent research determined the location of Willow Island to be in or at Middle Island Creek along Route 18 approaching the Tyler County line.

According to Harrison County deed records (Deed Book 29, page 691), on November 29 1841, Charles Twyman sold that property to Richard Shahan.

On April 8 1842, Richard and Elizabeth Shahan sold the same property to William Tate (Harrison County Deed Book 30, page 9). William & Jane Tate later sold that property to Hiram Thorn for $175. 
TWYMAN, Charles Mills (I123348)

The 1940 Census also states her birthplace as West Virginia, while the 1920 Census shows it as Georgia. But the 1930 Census shows that she was born in Alabama, which has been corroborated elsewhere. HAMMOND, Agness Gertrude (I91666)
 
4376 According to her death record, Josephine "Josie" West was a foster daughter of Harry & Nellie Brown, whose cemetery plot adjoins that of her own.

Later he became a sergeant. He fought with the Confederates throughout the war, participating in many encounters in the Valley of Virginia, including those of Cedar Creek, a prelude to the second battle of Bull Run; the capture of Harper's Ferry, and the battle of Sharpsburg or Antietam. Gulley at his death still carried the scars of wounds suffered at the battle of New Market and in a skirmish at Huntersville, near Elkins." GULLEY, Joseph Napoleon (I33883)
 
4385 According to his obituary, Samuel Jackson Squires formerly operated a farm in Doddridge County, later working in the oil and gas fields. He also served as a car salesman, and for many years was well-known as an auctioneer. His obituary made no mention of his endeavor as a hotel manager, which is known only from the 1930 Census and the following front-page article in the "West Union Herald" of Thursday, Aug 9 1928:

COLUMBIA HOTEL UNDER NEW MANAGEMENT
S. J. Squires, one of South West District's most energetic and successful young farmers, having leased the Columbia Hotel property, took charge last week.
Under the new management, a first class dining room has been opened up, and on last Sunday one of the finest chicken dinners obtainable anywhere in the state was served.
West Union has long needed a real hotel for the accommodation of the traveling public; and knowing Mr. & Mrs. Squires, as we have for some years, we predict this is a case of the right folks in the right place.

In the same issue of the newspaper was an advertisement placed by S. J. Squires for an auction of his farm animals, stating that the reason for the sale was that he had moved away from his farm. The advertisement was placed by "S. J. Squires, Owner, Columbia Hotel, West Union, W.Va." 
SQUIRES, Samuel Jackson "Jack" (I1692)

Although we have found no record of them in the 1920 Census, their three children were enumerated as boarders in the household of Basil and Fay (Plauger) Furr in Doddridge County.

4389 According to military records, William Willis enlisted as a Private in Co A, 14th W.Va. Infantry, at West Union on 4 August 1862, and he mustered for duty at Wheeling on 23 August 1862. Corporal William Willis of Co A, 14th W.Va. Infantry, was captured by the Confederates on January 2, 1864 at New Creek in Mineral County, where his unit was encamped. He was taken to Richmond, Va., where he died of disease (bronchitis) on March 14, 1864. A Company muster card says that he "Died while in the hands of the Rebels." He’s most likely buried at the Richmond National Cemetery.

There is some discrepancy regarding the date of the skirmish in which William Willis was captured. A Doddridge County teacher and minister, Flavius Josephus Ashburn, maintained a detailed diary for several years, including the years of the Civil War. His brother Amaziah Ashburn was a soldier in Company A, 14th W.Va. Infantry, the same unit as William Willis. Regarding that skirmish, a diary entry in January 1864 stated as follows: "I received a letter from Amaziah on the 9th stating that on the 4th they, with others, were guarding a wagon train between New Creek and Petersburg and they were attacked by rebels and the train taken, but the guards escaped after fighting about thirty minutes."

A more detailed account of the skirmish was contained in a newspaper article in "The Wheeling Daily Intelligencer," January 8, 1864:

"THE TRAIN captured by the rebels the other day between New Creek and Petersburg was guarded by one hundred and fifty men?seventy-five from the 2d Maryland, fifty detailed from the 23d Illinois and 1st and 14th West Virginia, and about twenty-five from Captain Jarboe?s company, 10th West Virginia. The rebels rushed down from the hillside woods like an avalanche, and the escort fell back to an elevation and contested the possession of mules with what energy they could, but were finally compelled to yield to superior force, and a large proportion of them were doubtless captured. and are now on their way to Richmond. The 2d Marylanders were detained from each company of the regiment, and were under command of Lieutenants Pelton and Bickford. A part of them escaped and found their way through the mountains into camp. Lieut. Bickford came in safely. Lieut. Pelton is supposed to be amongst the captured.?One man of company H was killed.

"After capturing the train the rebels marched upon the post at Williamsport, garrisoned by one company of the 23d Illinois; but the boys were awake, and retiring before the overwhelming numbers, sought the mountains, leaving many an empty saddle in the bottom. They flanked all the outposts of the enemy and arrived at New Creek a little the worse for a trip of thirty miles over the hills and through a blinding storm of wind and rain, but in good spirits.

"The result of the rebel attack was the capture of a splendid transportation train and seventy-five men."

4390 According to multiple records, including his wife's widow's pension application, Sylvester Hughes was an unassigned West Virginia volunteer. He was drafted and volunteered as a Private on Sep 21 1864. He was sent to Wheeling to await further assignment. However, he immediately contracted smallpox and was released on Oct 26 1864. He died the following month. John LaForge F. Randolph was a physician and surgeon who attended Sylvester when he was released and sent home. Sylvester Hughes' smallpox caused not only his own death, but also led to the deaths of his father and two of his children. HUGHES, Sylvester (I41060)
