301	(1) State of West Virginia, Report of the Col. Morgan Morgan Monument Commission, Charleston, WV: Jarrett Print. Co., 1924, pp. 35-99: ZACKQUILL Morgan Colonel Zackquill Morgan, next to the youngest child of Col. Morgan Morgan, was the founder of Morgantown. The exact date of his birth and death is not known. We know that he was born prior to 1737, probably 1735, and a court record shows he wa s dead in 1802. One record states that he died January 1, 1795, but we have no proof of its correctness. Shortly after the settlement of the Decker's had been wiped out by the Indians, Zackquill Morgan appeared on the scene and built the first cabin in what, in later years (1785), became known and was incorporated as Morgan's Town. Just when Zackqu ill came to this locality is not known, and investigation has not added to our knowledge, but has simply lead to greater complication and mystery. When George Morgan, Indian agent, was holding an investigation at Pittsburgh in 1777, to determine whether the whites had unlawfully taken possession of the Indian's lands, Colonel William Crawford appeared before him and testified that, "Zache l Morgan, James Chew and Jacob Prickett came out in that year (1766), and he was informed by them that they had settled up the Monongahela; that he has since seen Zachel Morgan's plantation which is on the south side of the line run by Mason an d Dixon; and that he believes that to be the first settlement made in that country." This would seem to settle the matter, but a deed is on record at Uniontown, Pennsylvania, showing that Zackquill was a resident in Bedford County in 1771. In that year Zackquill, a resident there, and his brother Morgan, of Berkeley County, sol d their farm on Braddock's road near Fort Necessity, and Zackquill is presumed to have moved to the site of Morgantown. The records further show that Zackquill never took up land in Monongalia county in his own name, but that on April 29, 1781 , "Surveyed for Zackquill Morgan, assignee of Isaac Lemaster, 220 acres of land in Monongalia County, on Decker's Creek and the Monongalia River, including his settlement thereon in the year 1772, agreeable to and in part of a certificate for 40 0 acres from the commissioners of adjusting claims to unpatented lands in Monongalia?James Chew, asst. to John Madison, Surveyor." This certificate was issued to Lemasters, February 26, 1780. Morgan, as assignee of James Stockwell, also receive d 400 acres more. Another statement is, that Zackquill came from Berkeley County, settled for a time on George's Creek, in Pennsylvania, and then came to the site of Morgantown. Did Zackquill settle at the site of Morgantown before going to Pennsylvania? Then why did he not put in his own claim instead of getting the land through Lemaster's claim? Was Lemaster here as a tenant for Morgan in 1772, while Morgan may have b een elsewhere, or in Pennsylvania, and then did Morgan, to prevent any claim of Lemaster, have Lemaster assign the land to him (Morgan)? No one knows. Morgan is not the only instance of this kind, as numerous such cases are found in the county. In October, 1785, Morgantown was established by an act reading as follows: "Be it enacted by the General Assembly that 50 acres of land, the property of Zackquill Morgan, lying in the county of Monongalia, shall be?laid out in lots of half an acre each, with convenient streets, which shall be?established as a town by t he name of Morgan's Town." The lots were to be sold out at public auction, which was to be advertised two months previously in the "Virginia Gazette"; the purchaser of each lot was required to build upon it within four years a house eighteen feet square, with a brick or s tone chimney. In 1789, the General Assembly, in view of representation "that Indian hostilities and other causes" prevented house building, extended the time three years; and in 1792, five years longer time was granted the lot holders to build , "from the difficulties in pro-curing materials." The difficulties that beset the hardy pioneers are thus graphically depicted. Zackquill Morgan's very unusual christian name is spelled in many different ways in old records, which is not surprising when we consider that educational advantages in Virginia at that period, were not of the best, and many of the backwoodsme n could barely read and write, and generally spelled by sound. Accordingly we find: Zacquil, Zacquill, Zackquillian, Zacwell, and Zackll, but rarely Zackquill, which according to the old Episcopal Church record book at Bunker Hill, is the way Co lonel Morgan Morgan originally spelled his son's name. History has not followed the footsteps of Zackquill Morgan so closely as it has his brother David, the Indian fighter. Previous to the Revolution his block house stood on the north-west corner of Main and Walnut Streets, Morgantown. In the Revol ution he was in command of the Virginia minutemen, a regiment raised in Monongalia, and what is now Marion county. He, with about 600 troops, was with General Gates at the battle of Saratoga, in October, 1777, and in that battle lost nearly hal f his men. He served all through the war with distinction, and died several years after peace was declared. It is said he lived in the old Morgan homestead, occupied by his grand-daughter, Drusilla Morgan, now owned by Max Mathers, in which is f ound some of his furniture, as well as an oil painting of himself. In 1783 Zackquill Morgan was returned on the assessors list for that year, as having license to keep an ordinary or tavern; so it seems he was the first hotel proprietor in Morgantown, as well as the first settler. His residence was used as a co urt house until such time as a suitable building was constructed. Colonel Zackquill Morgan married, first, Nancy Paxton, and had three daughters; Nancy Anne, who married John Pierpont, Temperance, who married James Cochran, and Catherine, who married Jacob Scott. His second wife was Drusilla Springer, a siste r to Col Zadoc Springer of Pennsylvania, whose line leads back to the Springers who founded Wilmington, Delaware. Their children were.: Levi, born June 26, 1766. Morgan ("Spy Mod") born November 7, 1767. James, born November 24, 1771. Uriah, born July 22, 1774. Zadock, born July 24, 1776, died young. Horatio, born April 9, 1778. Captain Zackquill, born August 8, 1782. Sarah, born Feb. 11, 1784, married James Clelland. Hannah, born September 9, 1786, married David Barker. Drusilla, born October ___ 1788, married Jacob Swisher. Rachel, born June ___, 1790, not married. The above dates are not vouched for, but have been given out, as we understand, by the D. A. R., so are given here. Observation shows some irregularities, such as all the sons heading the list, and all the daughters coming at the bottom of the l ist, etc. It will also be noted that Zackquill's sons were all too young to have been in the Revolution. Levi, Spy Mod, and James were all noted Indian scouts, and their names, especially that of Levi, are frequently found in border history. They built a fort on the Ohio, where New Martinsville now stands, and their watchfulness prevented many an I ndian surprise and attack on the defenseless settlers in the Monongahela valley. After the Indian wars were over, Levi and Spy Mod settled with their families in what is now Wetzel county. Levi later went to Kentucky where he died, and Mod is bu ried not far from Pine Grove, Wetzel county. Mr. F. F. Morgan, of Pine Grove, owns the farm on which Spy Mod lived at the time of his death, and was a "buddie" to the old man for a few years before his death in 1853. Mr. Morgan tells many interesting stories of Indian encounters David, Lev i and Spy Mod had in their earlier days, which he got first hand from Spy Mod himself. Some of these stories have been recorded in the pages of history, but the larger number, by far, are preserved only in the minds of those who heard them recou nted. They are all interesting, and one or two of the shorter will be recorded here. James Morgan, a boy ten years old, and Levi his brother, aged fifteen, set out from the site of Morgantown to visit their uncle David at Prickett's Fort. Their father, Col. Zackquill Morgan, accompanied them a part of the way. Tying his horse ne ar Booth's Creek, he helped the boys across the stream. Looking back he saw an Indian standing by his horse. Levi shot the Indian but the discharge of the gun frightened the horse, which broke loose and ran home. Knowing the return of the riderl ess horse would cause the greatest alarm at home, he made a raft and descended the Monongahela river as the quickest way of getting home. He was fired on by an Indian while on his way, but was not struck. The boys pushed on till near the site o f Smithtown, where they came on the body of Thomas Stone, who had been shot and scalped that day. He had come from Redstone Old Fort with Robert Ferrel and James West, to look out lands. On White Day Creek Levi shot a Wyandotte Indian who was i n the act of crossing that stream on a log. The boys were now afraid to cross the stream, and worked their way down to the mouth of the creek, where they discovered a canoe with three Indians and two white women and a child in it. They would hav e fired on the Indians, but their guns had gotten wet in the rainstorm which had been raging for two hours, and would not go off. The Indians afterward took shelter under the cliffs on the creek on the Marion county side, and after inhumanly abu sing their prisoners, lay down to sleep. In the night a large rock over them gave way and fell, crushing into a shapeless mass all alike,?the red demons and their tortured victims. In 1791, General St. Clair organized the expedition which met with such signal defeat on the 4th of November, 1791. In this expedition as scouts were Levi Morgan and James Pindell, while in the ranks as regular soldiers, were James and "Mod" Mor gan. Levi shot an Indian who was in the act of shooting "Mod," and in the retreat, when his brother James gave out, "Mod" declared that no Indian should ever kill a brother of his, and drew his tomahawk over James as though he would kill him, wh ich had the desired effect of rousing James to another effort to flee. The next day after the retreat, when all the men were stiff and sore, Levi engaged in various feats of dexterity to show how little effect the terrible retreat had had on him . The reader is referred to Wither's Chronicles of Border Warfare for other encounters of Levi with the Indians. Some of the children and grand-children of James, the third son of Zackquill, crossed the plains in covered wagons, as did the descendants of James, the son of David.	Morgan, Zackquill (I10011)

[Note: Should th is read "from Pennsylvania through Maryland."?] (2) O?Dell, Cecil, Pioneers of Old Frederick County, Virginia, Marceline, MO: Walsworth Publishing Company, 1995, pp. 249-250: Thomas Nathaniel Thomas (b. 1710 c.) received a patent from the Colony on 12 November 1735 for a 380-acre tract of land. This land, located on a branch of Redbud Run (a branch of Opequon Creek), had been surveyed on 3 November 1734 by Robert Brooke. Th e tract is located at the north edge of present-day Winchester, Virginia, with the east property line being U.S. Highway 11, close to and north of Commercial Street. The land continues northwest from U.S. Highway 11 across U.S. Highway 522, the n running on both sides of 522 to near Apple Pie Ridge Road (County Highway 739). . . . On 212 November 1740, Thomas sold the 380 acres to John Hardin for 42 pounds. Nathaniel bought 200 acres from Thomas Branson for six pounds, 10 shillings on 13 January 1741/42; this land was part of a 12 November 1735 850-acre patent. . . . This land is located near the head of Opequon Creek, west of Winchester, Virgini a on Cedar Creek Grade Road/Frederick County Highway 622, extending northwest of the Opequon community. He sold this property on 7 May 1747 to Nathaniel Cartmell for 60 pounds with his wife Anne releasing her dower rights to this land. Thomas purchased 100 acres of land from John Hite for 20 pounds on 23 November 1742. . . . This land (formerly sold to Jost Hite by Richard Pendall) is located southeast of Charlestown, West Virginia on Cattail Run, a branch of Shenandoah River . This sale was re-registered in the Frederick County Deed Books on 5 June 1753. On 20 July 1753, Nathaniel had a 240-acre tract surveyed adjacent north of the 100 acres; he received a Fairfax grant for it on 24 March 1761. This land is locate d adjacent east of Charlestown, West Virginia, with U.S. Highway 340 (Jost Hite Road) at the northwest corner between the Charlestown racetrack and downtown. Nathaniel sold 40 acres of the 240-acre tract to Gershom Keyes for 50 pounds on 29 Augu st 1761. He sold the remaining 200 acres, and the 100-acre tract, to Magnus Tate on 30 August 1762 for 500 pounds. Nathaniel Thomas was deceased by 1 March 1763 when his will (dated 13 October 1760) was proved in Frederick County Court. He willed 10 pounds to Ann Morgan (daughter of Morgan Morgan) contingent upon her acquiring a legal and sufficient ?quit? c laim against any other right to real estate or personal estate. The will states, ?the said Ann Morgan lived with me for many years past and sometimes pretended to be my wife (Dower Release, 1747), and by whom I suppose to have begotten sundry so ns and daughters.? Nathaniel bequeathed personal property to his sons Isaac and Jonathan, and daughters Catherine Emrey, Rachel Thomas, Elizabeth Thomas and Mary Thomas. Jonathan, Rachel, Elizabeth and Mary were underage at the time of the will . He instructed executors Robert Harper and Thomas Hart to sell all real and personal property. (3) Frederick County, Virginia, Hopewell Friends History [database online], Orem, UT: Ancestry.com, 1997: In the State Land Office at Richmond are to be found recorded in Book 16, pages 315-415, inclusive, the patents issued to the settlers who came to the Shenandoah Valley under authority of the Orders in Council made to Alexander Ross and Morgan B ryan. All bear date of November 12, 1735, and recite that the grantee is one of the seventy families brought in by them, and excepting location and acreage, are alike in wording and conditions, and are signed by William Gooch, Lieutenant-Governo r of the Colony at that time. . . . These patents were issued under the seal of the colony and were grants from the Crown, free of any obligation of feudal services to the Fairfax family, who claimed the land as lords proprietors of the Northern Neck of Virginia. The sixth Lord Fa irfax, who later established his home at Greenway Court near Winchester, instituted many suits against early settlers in the Shenandoah Valley, but it does not appear that any Friend who claimed under Ross and Bryan was ever ejected from his lan d. Although it is specifically stated that seventy families have been "by them brought in to our said Colony and settled upon the Lands in the said Order mentioned," only thirty-six patents issued to thirty-four grantees have been found. The name s of these grantees are here given, together with sundry information gathered from the minutes of various Friends' meetings, from the records of the counties of Orange and Frederick in Virginia, and Chester County, Pennsylvania. . . . Nathaniel Thomas, 850 acres. This land is described as being "at the head of the South Branch of Opeckon," and lies along the eastern foot of Little North Mountain. In 1747 Nathaniel Thomas sold 200 acres of this land to Nathaniel Cartmell, "Beg inning at Joist Hite's corner," and "adjoining Cartmell's other land." Martin Cartmell, Wm. Glover, and Joseph Lupton were the witnesses. The will of Nathaniel Thomas was probated March 1, 1763. He makes bequests to Ann, daughter of Morgan ap Morgan, to his sons Isaac and Jonathan, and to his daughters Catherine Emery, Rachel, Elizabeth, and Mary Thomas. The executors named are Ro bert Harper and Thomas Hart. Witnesses, Mary Magnus, Perrygren MackNess, William McKee, and John Smith.	Thomas, Nathaniel (I9792)

Obituary in the newspaper "THE OHIOAN",, Thursday, August, 25 1825: On morning of the 22d inst. after a lingering illness, William Rhodes, in the 86th year of age; leaving a wife and a large number of relations and friends to lament his loss. Mr. Rhodes was a soldier of the Virginia line on the Continental esnt-through the whole of the Revolutionary War. He was a man, in early life, of uncommon athletic powers; and in the course of his services if my memory serves me. (having received the facts from himself,) he received five severe wounds; by w hich he was so far disabled, that, for the last 8 or 10 years, he received small pettance from the bounty of his country, which served to smoothe his declining years. His remains were intered in this place on the 23d, with military honors, by C apt. Ambrozene's company of volunteers, in the presence of a large concourse of citizens and strangers. The following next address was spoken by Gen. Vance, at the time of the interment of Mr. Rhode's body. --Fellow citizens, and brother soldie rs-- You have this day been called upon to pay the last tribute of respect to a departed solder of the Revolutionary Army: one who had not merely the honor of having his name enrolled amongst that band of patriots and worthis, but one whose bloodd the snows of Trenton, the fields of Princeton, and the battlements of Stony Point. Venerable man! Why didst thou not pay the debt of nature on the walls of York-Town, where the measure of thy glory was complete, and whence thy name would have have been, by faithful history handed down to posterity, as one of the martyrs ws were offered us for the liberties of their country! Yes, there thou wouldst have had the sympathetic tear of your beloved commander, the Father of his country, to have smoothed thy passage to the Eternal World! But why compain? Are not thy s ervice deeply engraven on the hearts of posterity? And notwithstanding thy mortal remains shall inhabit the cold confines of that vaulted clay, yet thy name shall live in the hearts of thy countrymen, a mausoleum that will be more lasting tha n monumental brass. Under our present feeling, must we not with the poet exclaim.-- In death's terrific, icy arms, Lo! the illustrious soldier lies; He's free from care and war's alarms, Nor sees our tears nor hears our sighs. Cold is the heart where valor reign'd; Mute the tonge [tongue] that joy inspir'd; Still the arm that conquest gain'd, And dim the eye that glory fir'd. Too mean for him a world like this. He's landed on that happy shore Where all the saints partake of bliss, And heroes meet to part no more.

314	1. Henry Watkins born 1585, Wales, married abt 1637, Alice Moslin. Henry died Virginia. Children: + 2. i HENRY WATKINS born Abt 1638. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Special thanks goes out to Virginia Sanders Mylius for the following data. This is a link to her webpage on Watkins: http://oursoutherncousins.com/watkins.html, and here is a quote from it: There are several sources that state there was an early HENRY WATKINS (born about 1585) who was the father of Henry Watkins of Henrico County, Virginia, who married Katherine. Most particularly, there is the application of Miss Jamie Hess to the Daughters of the Pilgrims, which stated that ?Henry Watkins was born in Wales, 1600, was Burgess of Henrico Co, VA, 1623, listed as dead same year, References provided: Copi es with applications of family records, wills and deeds filed with application. Virginia House of Burgesses, 1619-1658.? I don?t know the truth of her proofs, and can?t help but wonder if those records still exist somewhere!? It seem s to me that he would have been born earlier than 1600, and he seems to have been alive in February 1624, although that is the last mention of him I can find. The first representatives of Accomack in the Assembly were "Captain John Wilcocks" and "HENRY WATKINS" both of whom signed a paper as Burgesses from the Eastern Shore in 1624. Henry is listed in Henry Watkins of Henrico County: His Descendants and Their Allied Families. States he was born 1585, which gives this list: I. Henry Watkins (1585-___) II. Henry Watkins m. Katherine Pride III. Edward Watkins (c 1665-1771) IV. John Watkins (c. 1710-1765) Phoebe Hancock V. Henry Watkins (1758-1829) Elizabeth Hudson Clay VI. John Watkins (1785-1845) Catherine T. Milton Henry Watkins, alive on the Eastern Shore in 1623, after the great Indian massacre of March 22, 1621 . In 1621, John Rolfe, in his "Relation of Virginia" writes of being at Cale's Gift near Cape Charles, where there were 17 inhabitants under the command of Lt. Craddock. By 1623 there were 96 inhabitants, 9 of whom were females. Of the 87 me n and boys, the only names preserved were: Edward Rodgers, Benjamin Knight, Henry Wilson, William Andrews, John Parsons, Thomas Hall, Walter Scott, William Williams, Robert Edmunds, John Evans, Thomas Powell, Thomas Parks, HENRY WATKINS, Willia m Davis, John Wilkins, William Smith, John Barrett, Thomas Ancient Savage, John Fisher, James Vocat Piper, John Parramore, and Thomas Gascoyne. Henry Watkins subscribed with twenty-five other Burgesses means with which to send Mr. Pountis , in 1623 , with a petition to the Crown. - (Campbell , 178, and Hening I, 129.) In February 1624, Accomack Plantation was represented at a stormy session of the General Assembly. Captain John Wilcox, overseer of the Company land, and HENRY WATKINS, overseer for Lady Dale, were the Burgesses. King James I had annulled th e charter of the Virginia Company and only a decree of the highest court in England was needed to make the annulment final. The fate of the representative government which had functioned for almost five years was unknown. The King had neve r favored it and some members of the Virginia Company who sought Royal favors had criticized it. This Assembly was also concerned about the ownership of land in fee simple when the charter was annulled. Some existing laws were strengthened a nd additional ones were passed to make this government more closely conform to the English Parliament. After the General Assembly of 1624 adjourned, Burgesses Wilcox and WATKINS returned to Accomack Plantation to explain the laws to the peopl e. At the census at this time there were 79 men, women and church. The charter of the Virginia Company was annulled on June 24, 1624, and Virginia became England's first Crown Colony. A church was built on the Secretary's land. After th e harvest was finished in the fall of 1624, the rest of the Company tenants were transferred to Elizabeth City. The census of 1625 shows 51 people. Other than in Miss Hess?s application, I can find no further proof that this early Henry Watkins was the father of our Henry Watkins. There is no will of the early Henry Watkins, that I know of, and no land records, etc., that might tell us t he truth of the matter. There are proofs that we descend from the following Henry, however.	Watkins, Henry (I4311)

ZACKQUILL Morgan

Colonel Zackquill Morgan, next to the youngest child of Col. Morgan Morgan, was the founder of Morgantown. The exact date of his birth and death is not known. We know that he was born prior to 1737, probably 1735, and a court record shows he wa s dead in 1802. One record states that he died January 1, 1795, but we have no proof of its correctness.

Shortly after the settlement of the Decker's had been wiped out by the Indians, Zackquill Morgan appeared on the scene and built the first cabin in what, in later years (1785), became known and was incorporated as Morgan's Town. Just when Zackqu ill came to this locality is not known, and investigation has not added to our knowledge, but has simply lead to greater complication and mystery.

When George Morgan, Indian agent, was holding an investigation at Pittsburgh in 1777, to determine whether the whites had unlawfully taken possession of the Indian's lands, Colonel William Crawford appeared before him and testified that, "Zache l Morgan, James Chew and Jacob Prickett came out in that year (1766), and he was informed by them that they had settled up the Monongahela; that he has since seen Zachel Morgan's plantation which is on the south side of the line run by Mason an d Dixon; and that he believes that to be the first settlement made in that country."

This would seem to settle the matter, but a deed is on record at Uniontown, Pennsylvania, showing that Zackquill was a resident in Bedford County in 1771. In that year Zackquill, a resident there, and his brother Morgan, of Berkeley County, sol d their farm on Braddock's road near Fort Necessity, and Zackquill is presumed to have moved to the site of Morgantown. The records further show that Zackquill never took up land in Monongalia county in his own name, but that on April 29, 1781 , "Surveyed for Zackquill Morgan, assignee of Isaac Lemaster, 220 acres of land in Monongalia County, on Decker's Creek and the Monongalia River, including his settlement thereon in the year 1772, agreeable to and in part of a certificate for 40 0 acres from the commissioners of adjusting claims to unpatented lands in Monongalia?James Chew, asst. to John Madison, Surveyor." This certificate was issued to Lemasters, February 26, 1780. Morgan, as assignee of James Stockwell, also receive d 400 acres more. Another statement is, that Zackquill came from Berkeley County, settled for a time on George's Creek, in Pennsylvania, and then came to the site of Morgantown.
Did Zackquill settle at the site of Morgantown before going to Pennsylvania? Then why did he not put in his own claim instead of getting the land through Lemaster's claim? Was Lemaster here as a tenant for Morgan in 1772, while Morgan may have b een elsewhere, or in Pennsylvania, and then did Morgan, to prevent any claim of Lemaster, have Lemaster assign the land to him (Morgan)? No one knows. Morgan is not the only instance of this kind, as numerous such cases are found in the county.

In October, 1785, Morgantown was established by an act reading as follows:

"Be it enacted by the General Assembly that 50 acres of land, the property of Zackquill Morgan, lying in the county of Monongalia, shall be?laid out in lots of half an acre each, with convenient streets, which shall be?established as a town by t he name of Morgan's Town."

The lots were to be sold out at public auction, which was to be advertised two months previously in the "Virginia Gazette"; the purchaser of each lot was required to build upon it within four years a house eighteen feet square, with a brick or s tone chimney. In 1789, the General Assembly, in view of representation "that Indian hostilities and other causes" prevented house building, extended the time three years; and in 1792, five years longer time was granted the lot holders to build , "from the difficulties in pro-curing materials." The difficulties that beset the hardy pioneers are thus graphically depicted.

Zackquill Morgan's very unusual christian name is spelled in many different ways in old records, which is not surprising when we consider that educational advantages in Virginia at that period, were not of the best, and many of the backwoodsme n could barely read and write, and generally spelled by sound. Accordingly we find: Zacquil, Zacquill, Zackquillian, Zacwell, and Zackll, but rarely Zackquill, which according to the old Episcopal Church record book at Bunker Hill, is the way Co lonel Morgan Morgan originally spelled his son's name.

History has not followed the footsteps of Zackquill Morgan so closely as it has his brother David, the Indian fighter. Previous to the Revolution his block house stood on the north-west corner of Main and Walnut Streets, Morgantown. In the Revol ution he was in command of the Virginia minutemen, a regiment raised in Monongalia, and what is now Marion county. He, with about 600 troops, was with General Gates at the battle of Saratoga, in October, 1777, and in that battle lost nearly hal f his men. He served all through the war with distinction, and died several years after peace was declared. It is said he lived in the old Morgan homestead, occupied by his grand-daughter, Drusilla Morgan, now owned by Max Mathers, in which is f ound some of his furniture, as well as an oil painting of himself.

In 1783 Zackquill Morgan was returned on the assessors list for that year, as having license to keep an ordinary or tavern; so it seems he was the first hotel proprietor in Morgantown, as well as the first settler. His residence was used as a co urt house until such time as a suitable building was constructed.

Colonel Zackquill Morgan married, first, Nancy Paxton, and had three daughters; Nancy Anne, who married John Pierpont, Temperance, who married James Cochran, and Catherine, who married Jacob Scott. His second wife was Drusilla Springer, a siste r to Col Zadoc Springer of Pennsylvania, whose line leads back to the Springers who founded Wilmington, Delaware. Their children were.:

Levi, born June 26, 1766.

Morgan ("Spy Mod") born November 7, 1767.

James, born November 24, 1771.

Uriah, born July 22, 1774.

Zadock, born July 24, 1776, died young.

Horatio, born April 9, 1778.

Captain Zackquill, born August 8, 1782.

Sarah, born Feb. 11, 1784, married James Clelland.

Hannah, born September 9, 1786, married David Barker.

Drusilla, born October ___ 1788, married Jacob Swisher.

Rachel, born June ___, 1790, not married.

The above dates are not vouched for, but have been given out, as we understand, by the D. A. R., so are given here. Observation shows some irregularities, such as all the sons heading the list, and all the daughters coming at the bottom of the l ist, etc. It will also be noted that Zackquill's sons were all too young to have been in the Revolution.

Levi, Spy Mod, and James were all noted Indian scouts, and their names, especially that of Levi, are frequently found in border history. They built a fort on the Ohio, where New Martinsville now stands, and their watchfulness prevented many an I ndian surprise and attack on the defenseless settlers in the Monongahela valley. After the Indian wars were over, Levi and Spy Mod settled with their families in what is now Wetzel county. Levi later went to Kentucky where he died, and Mod is bu ried not far from Pine Grove, Wetzel county.

Mr. F. F. Morgan, of Pine Grove, owns the farm on which Spy Mod lived at the time of his death, and was a "buddie" to the old man for a few years before his death in 1853. Mr. Morgan tells many interesting stories of Indian encounters David, Lev i and Spy Mod had in their earlier days, which he got first hand from Spy Mod himself. Some of these stories have been recorded in the pages of history, but the larger number, by far, are preserved only in the minds of those who heard them recou nted. They are all interesting, and one or two of the shorter will be recorded here.

James Morgan, a boy ten years old, and Levi his brother, aged fifteen, set out from the site of Morgantown to visit their uncle David at Prickett's Fort. Their father, Col. Zackquill Morgan, accompanied them a part of the way. Tying his horse ne ar Booth's Creek, he helped the boys across the stream. Looking back he saw an Indian standing by his horse. Levi shot the Indian but the discharge of the gun frightened the horse, which broke loose and ran home. Knowing the return of the riderl ess horse would cause the greatest alarm at home, he made a raft and descended the Monongahela river as the quickest way of getting home. He was fired on by an Indian while on his way, but was not struck. The boys pushed on till near the site o f Smithtown, where they came on the body of Thomas Stone, who had been shot and scalped that day. He had come from Redstone Old Fort with Robert Ferrel and James West, to look out lands. On White Day Creek Levi shot a Wyandotte Indian who was i n the act of crossing that stream on a log. The boys were now afraid to cross the stream, and worked their way down to the mouth of the creek, where they discovered a canoe with three Indians and two white women and a child in it. They would hav e fired on the Indians, but their guns had gotten wet in the rainstorm which had been raging for two hours, and would not go off. The Indians afterward took shelter under the cliffs on the creek on the Marion county side, and after inhumanly abu sing their prisoners, lay down to sleep. In the night a large rock over them gave way and fell, crushing into a shapeless mass all alike,?the red demons and their tortured victims.

In 1791, General St. Clair organized the expedition which met with such signal defeat on the 4th of November, 1791. In this expedition as scouts were Levi Morgan and James Pindell, while in the ranks as regular soldiers, were James and "Mod" Mor gan. Levi shot an Indian who was in the act of shooting "Mod," and in the retreat, when his brother James gave out, "Mod" declared that no Indian should ever kill a brother of his, and drew his tomahawk over James as though he would kill him, wh ich had the desired effect of rousing James to another effort to flee. The next day after the retreat, when all the men were stiff and sore, Levi engaged in various feats of dexterity to show how little effect the terrible retreat had had on him . The reader is referred to Wither's Chronicles of Border Warfare for other encounters of Levi with the Indians.

Some of the children and grand-children of James, the third son of Zackquill, crossed the plains in covered wagons, as did the descendants of James, the son of David.

Thomas

Nathaniel Thomas (b. 1710 c.) received a patent from the Colony on 12 November 1735 for a 380-acre tract of land. This land, located on a branch of Redbud Run (a branch of Opequon Creek), had been surveyed on 3 November 1734 by Robert Brooke. Th e tract is located at the north edge of present-day Winchester, Virginia, with the east property line being U.S. Highway 11, close to and north of Commercial Street. The land continues northwest from U.S. Highway 11 across U.S. Highway 522, the n running on both sides of 522 to near Apple Pie Ridge Road (County Highway 739). . . . On 212 November 1740, Thomas sold the 380 acres to John Hardin for 42 pounds.

Nathaniel bought 200 acres from Thomas Branson for six pounds, 10 shillings on 13 January 1741/42; this land was part of a 12 November 1735 850-acre patent. . . . This land is located near the head of Opequon Creek, west of Winchester, Virgini a on Cedar Creek Grade Road/Frederick County Highway 622, extending northwest of the Opequon community. He sold this property on 7 May 1747 to Nathaniel Cartmell for 60 pounds with his wife Anne releasing her dower rights to this land.

Thomas purchased 100 acres of land from John Hite for 20 pounds on 23 November 1742. . . . This land (formerly sold to Jost Hite by Richard Pendall) is located southeast of Charlestown, West Virginia on Cattail Run, a branch of Shenandoah River . This sale was re-registered in the Frederick County Deed Books on 5 June 1753. On 20 July 1753, Nathaniel had a 240-acre tract surveyed adjacent north of the 100 acres; he received a Fairfax grant for it on 24 March 1761. This land is locate d adjacent east of Charlestown, West Virginia, with U.S. Highway 340 (Jost Hite Road) at the northwest corner between the Charlestown racetrack and downtown. Nathaniel sold 40 acres of the 240-acre tract to Gershom Keyes for 50 pounds on 29 Augu st 1761. He sold the remaining 200 acres, and the 100-acre tract, to Magnus Tate on 30 August 1762 for 500 pounds.

Nathaniel Thomas was deceased by 1 March 1763 when his will (dated 13 October 1760) was proved in Frederick County Court. He willed 10 pounds to Ann Morgan (daughter of Morgan Morgan) contingent upon her acquiring a legal and sufficient ?quit? c laim against any other right to real estate or personal estate. The will states, ?the said Ann Morgan lived with me for many years past and sometimes pretended to be my wife (Dower Release, 1747), and by whom I suppose to have begotten sundry so ns and daughters.? Nathaniel bequeathed personal property to his sons Isaac and Jonathan, and daughters Catherine Emrey, Rachel Thomas, Elizabeth Thomas and Mary Thomas. Jonathan, Rachel, Elizabeth and Mary were underage at the time of the will . He instructed executors Robert Harper and Thomas Hart to sell all real and personal property.

(3) Frederick County, Virginia, Hopewell Friends History [database online], Orem, UT: Ancestry.com, 1997:

In the State Land Office at Richmond are to be found recorded in Book 16, pages 315-415, inclusive, the patents issued to the settlers who came to the Shenandoah Valley under authority of the Orders in Council made to Alexander Ross and Morgan B ryan. All bear date of November 12, 1735, and recite that the grantee is one of the seventy families brought in by them, and excepting location and acreage, are alike in wording and conditions, and are signed by William Gooch, Lieutenant-Governo r of the Colony at that time. . . .

These patents were issued under the seal of the colony and were grants from the Crown, free of any obligation of feudal services to the Fairfax family, who claimed the land as lords proprietors of the Northern Neck of Virginia. The sixth Lord Fa irfax, who later established his home at Greenway Court near Winchester, instituted many suits against early settlers in the Shenandoah Valley, but it does not appear that any Friend who claimed under Ross and Bryan was ever ejected from his lan d.

Although it is specifically stated that seventy families have been "by them brought in to our said Colony and settled upon the Lands in the said Order mentioned," only thirty-six patents issued to thirty-four grantees have been found. The name s of these grantees are here given, together with sundry information gathered from the minutes of various Friends' meetings, from the records of the counties of Orange and Frederick in Virginia, and Chester County, Pennsylvania. . . .

Nathaniel Thomas, 850 acres. This land is described as being "at the head of the South Branch of Opeckon," and lies along the eastern foot of Little North Mountain. In 1747 Nathaniel Thomas sold 200 acres of this land to Nathaniel Cartmell, "Beg inning at Joist Hite's corner," and "adjoining Cartmell's other land." Martin Cartmell, Wm. Glover, and Joseph Lupton were the witnesses.

The will of Nathaniel Thomas was probated March 1, 1763. He makes bequests to Ann, daughter of Morgan ap Morgan, to his sons Isaac and Jonathan, and to his daughters Catherine Emery, Rachel, Elizabeth, and Mary Thomas. The executors named are Ro bert Harper and Thomas Hart. Witnesses, Mary Magnus, Perrygren MackNess, William McKee, and John Smith.

(Research): "HISTORY OF ELKHART County" by Deahl, p. 605 "Father Milner was born
in Yorkshire, England, in Sep. 1803, and died in Sep. 1876. He was an
agriculturist. He resided in England until his marriage, and his
first child was born in England." "It was in 1831 when they bade
adieu to England and landed in Quebec, Canada. He then went to
Rochester, New York, for one year, and thence to Cuyahoga Co., Ohio,
and there he located and purchased land, and resided there till 1854,
when they moved to Elkhart Co, in Benton twp, just one-half mile east
of Mrs. Harper's homestead. (their daughter) This was his residence
till death. Formerly he was a Whig, then a Free Soiler and a strong
Abolitionist. At his death he was a strong advocate of the Republican
party. He and his good wife were ardent Methodists. He was one of
the pillars of the first Methodist church founded in Benton township."
"Mrs. Harper (daughter Elizabeth)...is fourth in a family of seven
children, three sons and four daughters...There are four living."
"PICTORIAL AND BIOGRAPHICAL MEMOIRS OF ELKHART County AND ST. JOSEPH County
IN" p.604 "Mr. Milner was a successful farmer and was the owner of
160 acres of land. He was an intelligent, well-informed man, altho he
gained his education by his own efforts. Upright and honorable, he
taught his children that to do right was the proper course to pursue,
and they grew up loyal, honorable citizens... she (Elizabeth) belonged
to a family of teachers, eight of her brothers and sisters having
taught school." "John Milner, the father of Mrs. Harper, was born in
Yorkshire, England, and was the son of William Milner. He came from
England with his family in 1830, and settled on wild land in Cuyahoga
County OH, the following year. In 1854 he moved to Elkhart Co., IN,
settled in Benton twp., and there passed the remainder of his days,
dying in 1876, when seventy-two years of age. He and Mrs. Milner were
members of the Methodist Episcopal Church, and were people of high
moral character."

25 1825:

On morning of the 22d inst. after a lingering illness, William Rhodes, in the 86th year of age; leaving a wife and a large number of relations and friends to lament his loss. Mr. Rhodes was a soldier of the Virginia line on the Continental esnt-through the whole of the Revolutionary War. He was a man, in early life, of uncommon athletic powers; and in the course of his services if my memory serves me. (having received the facts from himself,) he received five severe wounds; by w hich he was so far disabled, that, for the last 8 or 10 years, he received small pettance from the bounty of his country, which served to smoothe his declining years. His remains were intered in this place on the 23d, with military honors, by C apt. Ambrozene's company of volunteers, in the presence of a large concourse of citizens and strangers. The following next address was spoken by Gen. Vance, at the time of the interment of Mr. Rhode's body. --Fellow citizens, and brother soldie rs--
You have this day been called upon to pay the last tribute of respect to a departed solder of the Revolutionary Army: one who had not merely the honor of having his name enrolled amongst that band of patriots and worthis, but one whose bloodd the snows of Trenton, the fields of Princeton, and the battlements of Stony Point.
Venerable man! Why didst thou not pay the debt of nature on the walls of York-Town, where the measure of thy glory was complete, and whence thy name would have have been, by faithful history handed down to posterity, as one of the martyrs ws were offered us for the liberties of their country! Yes, there thou wouldst have had the sympathetic tear of your beloved commander, the Father of his country, to have smoothed thy passage to the Eternal World! But why compain? Are not thy s ervice deeply engraven on the hearts of posterity? And notwithstanding thy mortal remains shall inhabit the cold confines of that vaulted clay, yet thy name shall live in the hearts of thy countrymen, a mausoleum that will be more lasting tha n monumental brass. Under our present feeling, must we not with the poet exclaim.--

In death's terrific, icy arms, Lo! the illustrious soldier lies; He's free from care and war's alarms, Nor sees our tears nor hears our sighs.

Cold is the heart where valor reign'd; Mute the tonge [tongue] that joy inspir'd; Still the arm that conquest gain'd, And dim the eye that glory fir'd.

Too mean for him a world like this. He's landed on that happy shore Where all the saints partake of bliss, And heroes meet to part no more.

1. Henry Watkins born 1585, Wales, married abt 1637, Alice Moslin. Henry
died Virginia.
Children:
+ 2. i HENRY WATKINS born Abt 1638.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Special thanks goes out to Virginia Sanders Mylius for the following data. This is a link to her webpage on Watkins: http://oursoutherncousins.com/watkins.html, and here is a quote from it:

There are several sources that state there was an early HENRY WATKINS (born about 1585) who was the father of Henry Watkins of Henrico County, Virginia, who married Katherine.

Most particularly, there is the application of Miss Jamie Hess to the Daughters of the Pilgrims, which stated that ?Henry Watkins was born in Wales, 1600, was Burgess of Henrico Co, VA, 1623, listed as dead same year, References provided: Copi es with applications of family records, wills and deeds filed with application. Virginia House of Burgesses, 1619-1658.? I don?t know the truth of her proofs, and can?t help but wonder if those records still exist somewhere!? It seem s to me that he would have been born earlier than 1600, and he seems to have been alive in February 1624, although that is the last mention of him I can find.

The first representatives of Accomack in the Assembly were "Captain John Wilcocks" and "HENRY WATKINS" both of whom signed a paper as Burgesses from the Eastern Shore in 1624.

Henry is listed in Henry Watkins of Henrico County: His Descendants and Their Allied Families. States he was born 1585, which gives this list:

I. Henry Watkins (1585-___)
II. Henry Watkins m. Katherine Pride
III. Edward Watkins (c 1665-1771)
IV. John Watkins (c. 1710-1765) Phoebe Hancock
V. Henry Watkins (1758-1829) Elizabeth Hudson Clay
VI. John Watkins (1785-1845) Catherine T. Milton

Henry Watkins, alive on the Eastern Shore in 1623, after the great Indian massacre of March 22, 1621 .

In 1621, John Rolfe, in his "Relation of Virginia" writes of being at Cale's Gift near Cape Charles, where there were 17 inhabitants under the command of Lt. Craddock. By 1623 there were 96 inhabitants, 9 of whom were females. Of the 87 me n and boys, the only names preserved were: Edward Rodgers, Benjamin Knight, Henry Wilson, William Andrews, John Parsons, Thomas Hall, Walter Scott, William Williams, Robert Edmunds, John Evans, Thomas Powell, Thomas Parks, HENRY WATKINS, Willia m Davis, John Wilkins, William Smith, John Barrett, Thomas Ancient Savage, John Fisher, James Vocat Piper, John Parramore, and Thomas Gascoyne.

Henry Watkins subscribed with twenty-five other Burgesses means with which to send Mr. Pountis , in 1623 , with a petition to the Crown. - (Campbell , 178, and Hening I, 129.)

In February 1624, Accomack Plantation was represented at a stormy session of the General Assembly. Captain John Wilcox, overseer of the Company land, and HENRY WATKINS, overseer for Lady Dale, were the Burgesses. King James I had annulled th e charter of the Virginia Company and only a decree of the highest court in England was needed to make the annulment final. The fate of the representative government which had functioned for almost five years was unknown. The King had neve r favored it and some members of the Virginia Company who sought Royal favors had criticized it. This Assembly was also concerned about the ownership of land in fee simple when the charter was annulled. Some existing laws were strengthened a nd additional ones were passed to make this government more closely conform to the English Parliament. After the General Assembly of 1624 adjourned, Burgesses Wilcox and WATKINS returned to Accomack Plantation to explain the laws to the peopl e. At the census at this time there were 79 men, women and church. The charter of the Virginia Company was annulled on June 24, 1624, and Virginia became England's first Crown Colony. A church was built on the Secretary's land. After th e harvest was finished in the fall of 1624, the rest of the Company tenants were transferred to Elizabeth City. The census of 1625 shows 51 people.

Other than in Miss Hess?s application, I can find no further proof that this early Henry Watkins was the father of our Henry Watkins. There is no will of the early Henry Watkins, that I know of, and no land records, etc., that might tell us t he truth of the matter. There are proofs that we descend from the following Henry, however.

Watkins, Henry (I4311)

1838-1857; William inherited 80 acres from father James but 'left for parts unknown'. His share went to Elizabeth, Moses, James, Samuel, 7 of Elijah's heirs and Mary (James, Sr.'s wife).

In Berkeley Springs, WVA Land Tax Book of 1820 is found, if reading is correct, that after 1833, heirs appear after James.

1846, lists William of James (Iowa) 80 acres on the Potomac every year through 1850, William is listed (Iowa) 80 acres on the Potomac.
