| 758 | ISAAC HALL ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------- Issac Hall, farmer P. O. Pleasant Hill; one of the few early settlers of Miami County ; was born in Newberry District, S. C., near Newberry Court House in 1806, Jan. 19; his father was Amos Hall, of South Carolina, and his mother, Sarah, daughte r of Marmaduke Coate; he landed in Ohio the 1st of March, 1807, having been six weeks on the journey; he located in Union Township, on land now owned by David Ellenman; bere he died at the advanced age of 84 years, at his son-in law's, Millen No rth. Sarah, his wi fe, died previously, at the same place; they reared a family of nine sons and five daughters. The subject of this sketch is the fifth child of the family, and the oldest surviving member; his education was acquired when the im perfect subscription system was in vogue, and consequently his early advantages were limited; he helped his father on the farm till majority, when he moved to his present farm in November, 1827; it was then all in the woods, and required much ha rd labor, with many sacrifices, to make out of it a home; but this Mr. Hall accomplished by his unflagging industry; he lived on the land seven years before he could raise sufficient money to enter it; it then consisted of 80 acres, but he now h as in his possession nearly 250 acres; he comes from a vigorous and indust rious stock, and has nobly contended with the difficulties and hardships incident to frontier life he is a self-made man, his present competence being wholly the result o f his own industry and skill, assisted by his noble wife, his life has been an exemplary one, inoffensive, unpright and generous; in religion, he is with the Christian denomination; in politics he is Republican; he was originally a Whig, and cas t his first vote for Henry Clay. He has been married three times, first to Anna Hayworth, daughter of James Hayworth, an early pioneer; she was born in 1809, and died in 1849 ; five sons and five daughters were the issue of this union. His secon d marriage was with Catherine Lowry, nee Rodehamel, of this Township, who was born in 1804, and died in 1863.

| 760 | It seems ironic that the Puritans having come to America for religious freedom did not extend this same right to the Quakers. Nicholas was called "a weak man, and one whose back was crooked... by some historians, "but it can be argued that he had a strong spirit". Nicholas and Hannah had two children with whom they lived on the Trusler farm in the woods about five mile s from the meeting house in Salem. It was situated at the site of modern town of West Peabody. The farm was devised to Nicholas and Henry jointly, by their mother in 1655. Nicholas' half of the house was forfeited for fines he and Hannah incurred for holding Quaker meetings in their home. However, Henry brother of Nicholas, manag ed to obtain control of the entire farm and allowed Hannah and the children to remain there. Excerpt of court record "Nicholas Phelps is sensured by this court to pay 40s to the treasurer of this county for defending a quakers meeting & allsoe to be sent to the house of correction at Ipswich for owning himselfe to be a quaker & there to continue at this Court s pleasure: to pay costs 20s." In Salem the path of Quaker conversion followed women. Gardner, Southwick, and Buffum women accounted for thirteen out of twenty-five women in the meeting. In June 1658, John Smith had helped the Salem constable arrest Quakers at the homes of La wrence Southwick and Nicholas Phelps. One of the Quakers was Tamosin Buffum. Within a year Smith himself was in jail with his wife for Quaker-related crimes. His wife was Tamosin's daughter; another daughter was Deborah Wilson, who had walke d naked down Salem's main street and the Essex County Court called the young woman "distempered on mind." and remanded her to the custody of her Quaker husband. Buffum also had two sons, Joshua and Caleb, who were also active in the sect[5]. On 27 Jun 1658 the Salem constables learned of another Quaker meeting, this time at the home of the Phelps. Upon investigation the constables discovered the presence of two visiting Quakers, William Brend and William Leddera. Apparently awa fnd's notoriety, the constables arrested him and Leddera and sent them to Boston for further punishment and ordered all the local participants to appear in court on June 29. The men appeared and refused to remove their hats, symbolically declaring their affiliation with Brend and Leddera and denying their obedience to the a uthority of the court. Shattock, Joshua Buffum, and Samuel Gaskin openly admitted that they were Quakers. This admission forced the court to act. It cited Shattock, Buffum, Gaskin, Phelps, the three Southwicks, and twenty-two other town residen ts for absence from regular church services. The courts also ordered that Shattock, Buffum, Phelps and the three Southwicks be sent to Boston with Brend and Leddera. [6](SEE SHATTUCK FAMILY). About 1661 Samuel Shattuck and Nicholas Phelps sailed to England to petition parliament to help the Quakers. They returned to New England, but Mr. Phelps, being weak in body died soon after[7]. Shattock, Buffum, Southwick and Phelps refused to conform. The care of family, the arguments of John Norton, a minister in Boston, and the threats of General Court failed to bring about any minimal conformity by the six Quakers. Martyrdom, howe ver, was avoided. In an apparent exchange for dropping the threat to sell Daniel and Provided Southwick into servitude, the older Southwicks agreed to leave the colony and presumably precipitated the departure of the other three Salem Quakers[8]. NICHOLAS and HENRY PHELP'S HOUSE, Salem, Massachusetts Hannah Baskel/Baskett married 2nd Henry Phelps, the brother of Nicholas, 3rd James Hill between 1672-1676 Perquimans. Hannah married 4th Joseph Smith on 7 Mar 1695/6 at Perquimans Quarterly Meeting. In her youth Hannah appears to have been wil d and of poor moral standing. "Hannah held the first Quaker meeting in the Massachusetts Bay colony in her home in Salem and later opened her home to the first Quaker meeting in the Albemarle settlement of Carolina" She came to the Massachusetts Bay Colony in 1652 from Engla nd Excerpt from court record At the time of this updated deposition Hannah was the wife of Nicholas Phelps. This is the only record of Hannah's maiden name. "Deposition of Jane Johnson: Saith yt: coming ov'r in the ship with henry Phelps & Hannah the now wife of Nich: Phel ps: Henry Phelps going ashore the ship lying at the Downes: Hannah wept till shee made herselve sick because mr Fackner would not suffer her to goe ashore with Henry Phelps: & Henry came aboard late in the night, the next morning mr Falckner Chid Henry Phelps & Hannah & said was it not for y'w to let Hannah lay her head in y'r lap p but must shee ly in ye Cabbin to & called Hannah Strumpet & this deponent saith farther yt she saw Henry Phelps ly in his Cabbin & Hannah Baskel the now wife of Nich Phelps came & lay down her head by him & pull her head up again often as he l ay in his Cabbin: Y when he was smocking in the Cook roome tobacco Hannah tooke the pip out of his mouth, etc., etc."[9] In 1694 Hannah was the only one of the original family still living, it was she who proved headrights for fifteen persons transported into the county of Albemarle. They were Henry Phelps [her 2nd husband], Hannah, his wife [herself], John Phelp s [Henry's son], Johathan Phelps [her son], Hanah Phelps, Jr. [her daughter], Robt. Pane, James Hill, her 3rd husband, Saml. Hill [son of James Hill], Mary Hill, Nathanl. Spivey and his wife, Judith, John Spivey, Sarah Spivey, Anne Spivey, [and ] Jonathan Phelps, his freedom. This amounted to 750 acres, 50 acres per right. Hannah assigned the first six rights to her grandson, Jonathan Phelps, who was then seven years old; eight rights to her grandson, Samuel Phelps, age ten; and the last right to Robert Wilson, the executor of the estate of her son Jonathan. In 1709 Mr. Gordon, a Church of England missionary, stated in a letter that the Quakers then numbered "about the tenth part of the inhabitants" of Carolina and in Perquimans Precinct they "are very numerous, extremely ignorant, insufferably prou d and ambitious, and consequently ungovernable."[10] | Phelps, Nicholas (I6155)

| 761 | Jacob Pletcher joined the Civil War on Aug. 22, 1862, in Co. D in 100th Reg. Indiana Volunteers. Being of the Mennonite faith, his family were against his going. He was in the process of building a barn, and had to leave half way thru, accordi ng to family stories. This left Cyrene to finish the job. Jacob served for 15 months. He became ill in Sept. 1863 with typhoid fever at Black River, 18 miles from Vicksburg, and was sent to Memphis, Tenn. where he died on Nov. 11, 1863. Artic le by Devon Rose tells this story of Pletcher's: "Approximately 100 years ago, a man with the last name of Pletcher lived at the same location where Rose does now. It is documented that in 1863 Pletcher was summoned to fight in the Civil War . Because his wife was pregnant, he did not want to leave her and he paid someone to go in his place. Later that same year, Pletcher began building a large barn on his farmland. After his wife had their child, Pletcher did fight in the Civi l War. Why Pletcher never returned has not been documented. Mrs. Pletcher finished the barn. From that barn made of walnut came the expensive elegant wood that Rose now uses to make each custom piece of doll furniture on display in the gift s hop area ---Birds Eye View, Wakarusa" "ENLISTMENT RECORD" Jacob Pletcher, enrolled as a Private of Company D, 100th Regiment of Indiana Volunteers at Fort Wayne, IN on 22nd day of Aug. 1862 by Capt.

So Wallace Estill was directed, May 29, 1751, to clear a road from his mill to a road already opened to the head of the Calfpasture. The settlers appointed by the court to help him were Loftus Pullin, Richard Bodkin, Samuel Ferguson, Matthew Harper, John Miller, William Price, James Anglen, James Hall, Philip Phegan, John Shaw, Hackland Wilson, two John Carliles, and Robert and William Carlile. By petition of May 18, 1753, this road was extended from Estill's mill to William Wilson's mill on Bolar Run.

It stood on Jackson's River between Matthew Harper's Fort and Fort Dinwiddie 18 miles from either. Major Andrew Lewis ordered Captain Wi lliam Preston to march 60 fresh militia there November 23, 1756. Located in present Bath County (Draper MSS Preston Papers IQQ137). ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Mini Biographies of Scots and Scots Descendants ( http://www.electricscotland.com/webclans/minibios/m/miller_family.htm ) The early Millers who settled in Virginia were the "not so typical" settlers as this family had traveled thousands of miles over the ocean from their homelands for a new beginning. Their homelands of Scotland and Ireland was in the midst of eth nic cleansing, aftermath of wars, pestilence and famine and the most particular, religious persecution. Sometime around 1737, John Miller and his wife, Martha and his brother, James, decided to leave their homelands via Northern Ireland to start a new life in a foreign soil. The family landed at what is now Augusta County Virginia. Here John liv ed until his death near 1780. Early colonists were hard working and freedom loving people reflecting their Scottish backgrounds and mostly reflected by their religious faith as Presbyterians. Early records reflect that John and Martha and their children were baptized at th e Tinkling Spring Presbyterian Meeting House. This in itself might explain their departure from the Old Country. John and James were Militia Men in Capt. John Smith's Company in 1742 and fought in Capt. George Wilson's Company in the French and Indian Wars in 1756. John bought 210 acres of land in 1747 and Martha gave birth to seven children. America stood for hard work and freedom. The Millers seized the opportunity for freedom, worked the land and gave birth to a new generation of Americans. John's second child was named James. He was typical of early American colonist. James served in the French and Indian War, raised nine children and lived to be 70 years of age. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Repository: Name: Hacker's Creek Pioneer Descendants Title: Surname -- Miller Family History [The] Author: Armentrout, Hunter F.
