Book Purge - The Story of Winchester in Virginia

Morton, Frederic. The Story of Winchester in Virginia: The Oldest Town in the Shenandoah Valley, Bowie, MD: Heritage Books, Inc., 2001.  First published in 1925.

p. 22 The business quarter of Winchester lies in the basin of the little stream known as Town Run. It is therefore depressed, but the gradual improvement of the streets and lots has made it almost level throughout. In every direction is slightly rising ground; For Hill in the north, Church Hill in the east, Potato Hill in the south and Academy Hil and Powell's Ridge in the west. But these elevations are gentle in ascent, and are broadtopped belts of tableland rather than tre hills. Even the tower of the Handley schol does not rise high enough to permit a quite satisfactory examination of the field of view. . . . 

Running twenty miles southward, a little more than twenty miles northward, and a similar distance east and west, lies the Lower Shenandoah Valley, as distinguished from the Middle Valley between Strasburg and Harrisonburg.  To speak accurately, it is not a true valley, but a long and relatively narrow plain, separated by the narrow rampart of the Blue Ridge from the plain of Piedmont Virginia. The watercourses around Winchester are not tributaries of the Shenandoah, bu turn directly to the Potomac.

[Shenandoah River flows from southwest to northeast entering the Potomac River at Harper's Ferry, WV.  The "upper river" is in the south, the "lower river" is in the north.]

p. 31 [Lord Fairfax owned land around Winchester and gave out 99 year leases which allowed him to

Willis, George. History of Shelby County, Kentucky, Baltimore, MD: Clearfield Company, 1993.

p. 35 Note - Up until the Civil War many old residents dated all happenings from "the night the stars fell." The meteoric shower which so startled all the people of this section and the State at large and so terrorized not alone the superstitious and uninformed, occurred in 1831. [November 12-13, 1833]. The old fashion blacks left over from the Civil War, when in care of the juvenile whites wound up their grave yard stories around the kitchen fireplace in the late evenings with tales of the "night the stars fell." Mr. L.C. Willis, the veteran lawyer, during the famous campaign of 1896 when all the "fixed" stars of deocracy seemed "slipping used to refer to the Carlisle's, Lindsays's, et al, as the "Pleiades," and then tell the story of the mountaineer, who on the  "night the stars fell,' rushed out in his night clothes, found his wife on her knees in front of their little cabin, and after viewing the awful phenomenon called to her, "Pray Ol' WOman, pray hard. I'll step around back, and if the seven stars has slipped, we're gone to hell, shore."  That the phenomenon was general throughout the State is further evidenced by a stroy that Judge Lawrence Anderson, of Graves County, quotes his grandfather, a county physician as elling. The latter

Anderson, Viginia. Pucketts, Vaughans, Harlans, Meeks & Allied Families, Wayne County, Illinois, 1988. 

Our earliest known Meeks ancestor was William Meeks, who came from England, according to the journal of a great grandson, Priddy Meeks (1795-1886). Two of William Meek's sons were William Jr. and John. We are descended from William Meeks, Jr., who married Molly Nolin / Nolan.  We do not have definite dates for the birth and marriage of William Jr., but it is thought that he was born around 1730 and married about 1750. He may have died in Greenville District, S.C.   There is a bill of sale in Greenville District, SC, Deek Book D, p. 359 from Wm. Meeks to his son Athe Meeks - 7 Jan. 1797. I have no record that William Jr. accompanied his children to Kentucky, so he may have died in South Carolina .

The children of William Jr. & Molly (Nolin) Meeks are believed to have all been born in Allens Creek, Hanover Co., VA. Their children are as follows:

1. Priddy Meeks, b. ca. 1751 md. Elizabeth Denny (our ancestors)
2. John Meeks b. ca. 1753 md. Elizabeth Walker
3. Susanna Meeks b. ca. 1755 md. Paul Meecham

Brookes-Smith Joan. Index for Old Kentucky Surveys & Grants, no imprint, ca. 1974

It was on 16 June, 1774, when James Harrod and his party of pioneer settlers reached the plateau between the Salt and Kentucky Rivers in the heart of a land that would one day be called Kentucky. Physically exhausted from their long trip down the Ohio and up the Kentucky River and fearful of the ever present danger from roving bands of Indians, they gave no thought to the restless discontent of their counterparts who lived along the Eastern seaboard. Uppermost in their minds was survival.

Acutely aware that they had penetrated deep within enemy territory, they immediately set about laying out Harrod's Town. . . . 

They were followed shortly by Daniel Boone, Benjamin Logan, John Floyd, Simon Kenton and numerous other pioneer leaders. Their greatest enemy, or so they believed was the Indian. They could not have known that Fate was already laying the groundwork that would lead the Eastern seaboard revolutionary and the Western pioneer to a common goal, a goal to establish a permanent home which was destined to erupt into a long and vicious legal war. 

Unfortunately, many of the earliest settlers believing that just to settle the land was all that was necessary for ownership delayed too long the registration of their surveys and claims. Apparently

Notebook - North Carolina #2, Part 1

Drake, Julia. The Lost Joseph of the McDowell Family, North Carolina Historical & Genealogical Record, Vol. 1, No. 1, January 1932.

The McDowell family is legion and it is not strange that in the extreme emphasis placed on Colonel Joseph McDowell, of Quaker Meadows (1756-1801) and his nephew Captain Joseph, of Pleasant Gardens (1758-1795), that another Joseph McDowell living in Guilford county should have been overlooked. The United States census of 1790 for North Carolina records two Josephs as "Heads of Families" in Burke county and the Joseph McDowell of Guilford county, who is thus registered:

Salisbury District - 1 free white male over 16; 2 free white males under 16; 3 free white females.

The first land record so far discovered shows that this Joseph McDowell held:

A tract of land containing two hundred and fifty acres lying and being in our county of Guilford on the waters of the south side Reedy Fork of Haw River beginning at a Black Gum in William Scotts line . . . near a branch running thence west crossing two branches one hundred sixty poles to a post oak thence north crossing a branch to Abraham Whitesides corner black oak thence . . . in John Whites line . . . to his corner stake thence . . . in William Scotts line. . . Record of deeds, Guilford county, NC Vol. 2, page 118.

There is also the following purchase of land:

This indenture made this fourth day of January in the year of our Lord one thousand seven hundred and ninety four between Thos. Morgan of the county of Guilford and State of North Carolina of the one part and Joseph McDowell of the state and county afore of the other part witnesseth that the sd. Thos.

The Family of James Taylor - James Taylor, the immigrant to Virginia, came from Carlisle, England. He appeared in Virginia about 1680, and signed the petition for the removal of the Vestry of St. Stephen's Parish, and by 1686, he was established on land which he purchased, which was located on Whorecock Creek (now called Garnett's Creek), which is on the upper side of the Mattopony River.

He had a family before he settled in King & Queen, who came with him to Virginia. His first wife died in 1682, and he married for his second wife, Martha, daughter of Richard Gregory of Essex County. This alliance had something to do with his settlement in this area, for the Gregory's had land in this section.

James Taylor, the first, died in 1698.

James Taylor, the younger, spent his early years in St. Stephen's Parish where he was born in 1675. In 1699, he married Martha, daughter of Col. Roger Thompson, of St. Peter's Parish, New Kent County. James Taylor was recommended to the governor to be justice of the county court, but was too young to serve. Later, when of age, he became a justice, sheriff and was

Research Log - Hanover County, Virginia, ver. 2

Hanover County, Virginia was created November 26, 1719 from St. Paul's Parish of New Kent County.  I-295 on the north side of Richmond is a significant portion of the county's southern border. The York River forms the northern boundary between Hanover and Caroline County.  It is the probable crossroads of six families - Meeks, Priddy, Butler, Denny, Henry and Robertson/Robinson.
