This book started as an account of my grandparents, Oliver S h i r t l i f f & Lucy May (Peirpoint) Jones, of Monong a l i a County and Parkersburg, W« Va., t h e i r ancestors and descendants. Since I have known most of the descendants a l l my l i f e or t h e i r s , I have been able to provide rather f u l l and detailed st o r i e s about them.
When the work was w e l l along I decided to include the descendants of Lucy's brother and s i s t e r s , or " S i b l i n g s " . I do not know any of them personally, and have had to gather information from various sources, by correspondence. As a re s u l t the stori e s vary from moderately f u l l accounts to mere l i s t s of names or even l e s s , according to what I could get i n the limited time a v a i l a b l e .
My data i s i n many places sketchy and incomplete, and there i s room for much add i t i o n a l inquiry. However, t h i s would be true no matter how f a r the inquiry were c a r r i e d . Each answer found poses several new questions. Also, i t i s improbable that a l l my data i s accurate. I w i l l welcome additions and corrections, and i f i t seems warranted at some time i n the future, w i l l issue a supplement.
The s p e l l i n g of family names has varied over the generat i o n s . A glance at Peirpoint or Smell i n the index w i l l shew the extent. The use i n the t i t l e and index of PEIRPOINT5
which was the general usage a century ago, rather than P i e r -point or Pierpont, which are used today, or P a i r p o i n t , which was used s t i l l e a r l i e r , i s a r b i t r a r y on my part, and was chosen to d i s t i n g u i s h the West V i r g i n i a family from the P i e r -ponts of New England and New York, and from the Quaker family of Pierpoints i n Maryland and V i r g i n i a .
Many members of the family, and others, have supplied information, and i n general these sources are acknowledged i n the t e x t , under "Sources" or "References". To single some out for s p e c i a l reference here would lead to invidious comparisons. Mention should be made, however, of Miss Marion Tapp, a genealogist of Morgantown, who has been most h e l p f u l i n obtaining data both from the Monongalia County records and from i n d i v i d u a l s . And without the benefit of Miss W i l l * Brand's knowledge of the family, the section on " S i b l i n g s " could not have been undertaken.

NOTES ON ARRANGEMENT
This account is divided into four parts, plus an index and a chart. Part I, Lucy & Oliver, includes both a brief account of the C i v i l War period in northwestern Virginia and the formation of West Vir g i n i a , and an account of Oliver S h i r t l i f f & Lucy May (Peirpoint) Jones' lives and family.
Part I I , Ancestors, is arranged in "lines" of family names, working from top to bottom of the chart. Wives of ancestors are under their husbands' names. Thus, since Jones is highest on the chart, the Jones ancestors, working backward in point of time, are given f i r s t . These are followed by McMullen or McMillan, Fetty, Bike, etc. At the top of each page the family name or names dealt with are given. Each ancestor i s numbered and the number is enclosed in ()s. Starting with (1) for each child of Lucy and Oliver, the father is double and the mother double plus one. Thus Lucy is (1X2/1) or (3), her mother is (3X2/1) or (7), her father in turn is (7X2) or ( U ) , etc.
Part I I I , Descendants. takes the children of Lucy and Oliver who grew up, in the order of their b i r t h , and gives an account of his or her l i f e , followed by accounts of his or her spouse, children, and subsequent descendants. Direct descendants carry a superscript showing their generation, starting with 1 for Lucy and Oliver's children. Thus Jane4 Banning Galvin ( J u l i a ^ , Charles^, EdithI) shows that Jane is fourth generation, a great great grandchild of Lucy and Oliver, by the line of descent given.
Part IV, Lucy's Siblings, gives similar information about Lucy's brother and sisters and their descendants, the generations being numbered in the same way as under Descendants.
The Index includes the names of a l l relatives by blood or marriage mentioned in the text, with the page on which they are mentioned. Descendants of Lucy and her Siblings carry generation superscripts, and ancestors numbers In parenthesis, as described above. A l l females are indexed under their maiden names when known. Names of persons not relatives by blood or marriage are not indexed, except in special cases.
The Chart. folded in at the back, can be folded out to be completely exposed in conjunction with any page. It shows at a glance a l l known and probable ancestors, Lucy and her siblings, and their children, who carry the superscript \ There are too many in subsequent generations for a familv-wide chart to be practical.
"LUCY & OLIVER"
On A p r i l 27, 1365, at Morgantown, West V i r g i n i a , Oliver S h i r t l i f f Jones, aged 29, and Lucy May P i e r -point, aged 21, v/ere married, by Reverend Benjamin Ison. Both were natives and the children of natives of Monongalia County, V i r g i n i a , of which Morgantown was the county seat.
Oliver had been mustered out of the Union Army on August 13, 1864, a f t e r more than three years service i n the C i v i l War and had returned to his father' farm. Both Oliver and Lucy had grown up i n the atmosphere of tension which continually increased during the decades preceding the war, and which culminated i n i t . Nowhere was the tension greater than i n northwestern V i r g i n i a , which was geographically and economically closer to Ohio and western Pennsylvania, and which was l a r g e l y s e t t l e d by Pennsylvania German and Scotch-Irish stock, but which was p o l i t i c a l l y part of V i r g i n i a .
V i r g i n i a oast of the mountains was h i s t o r i c a l l y and t r a d i t i o n a l l y a land of plantations, worked by Negro slaves, and was dominated p o l i t i c a l l y by the "Slave Power", although the vast majority of i t s white population v/ere not slave owners. Northwestern V i r g i n i a was a land of steep mountains and narrow va l l e y s , e n t i r e l y unsuited to t h i s type of economy, and was developing as a land of small farms, worked by the owners, and of primitive industry and mining*
Aside from the slavery and t a r i f f questions, which were national issues, northwestern V i r g i n i a had long f e l t that i t paid more than i t s share of state taxes due to slaves being assessed at a nominal value while property was assessed at f u l l value, and got less than i t s share of state expenditures due to domination by the eastern section i n the l e ^ i s -l ature. There had been much talk of separate statehood as the only way the section could develop.
In 1858 Abraham Lincoln, an obscure I l l i n o i s Lav/yer and p o l i t i c i a n , and a member of the new and then r a d i c a l Republican party, had managed to s p l i t the dominant Democratic party i n a series of debates with one of the Democratic leaders, Stephen A. Douglas, by forcing him to declare himself on'the slavery issue, on which northorn and southern Democrats d i f f e r e d . Oliver Jones, then 22, i s supposed to have been v i s i t i n g his Campbell cousins i n * P a r i s , I l l i n o i s , and to have heard one or more of these debates. As a r e s u l t of the debates, Lincoln became the Republican nominee for President i n 1860, and the Democrats s p l i t and ran two t i c k e t s , headed
(Lucy & Oliver Cont'd) Page 2
by Douglas and Breckenridge. Lincoln, with a minority of the t o t a l vote, was elected.
When Lincoln took o f f i c e on March 4, 1861, the secession of the slave states from the Union was well advanced. On December 20, 1860, i n accordance with i t s announced intention during the campaign should Lincoln be elected, South Carolina seceded, and on February 4, 1861 s i x other states joined her i n forming the Confederate States of America. V i r g i n i a c a l l e d a Convention which met on February 13 to decide on a course of action. On A p r i l 17, by a vote of 88 to 55, t h i s Convention adopted an Ordinance of Secession, to be voted on i n the regular e l e c t i o n on May 23. Without waiting for the result the V i r g i n i a Government joined the Confederacy on A p r i l 25.
Northwestern V i r g i n i a was by no means unanimousl y against t h i s , and the vote of the 47 delegates from this region i s probably representative of the s e n t i ment there, 32 voting against secession, 11 for i t , and 4 r e f r a i n i n g from voting. In the May 23 e l e c t i o n the vote of northwestern Virginians, which was never tabulated, was r e l i a b l y estimated at 44,000 against secession, 4000 for i t . A mass meeting i n Clarksburg (which was tho home of Stonewall Jackson, one of the leading Confederate generals) on A p r i l 22 c a l l e d a Convention i n Whoeling on May 13, which i n turn c a l l e d a General Convention there on June 11.
This Convention on June 19 passed "An Ordinance for the Reorganization of the State Government" (of V i r g i n i a ) , which established the Restored Government of V i r g i n i a with headquarters at Wheeling. I t elected Francis Harrison Pierpoint, f i r s t counsin of Lucy's father and one of the leaders of the mass meeting and Conventions, Governor. On June 21 Governor Pierpoint petitioned Lincoln f o r m i l i t a r y aid i n putting down the r e b e l l i o n , and. four days l a t e r Lincoln, acting thru Secretary of War Cameron, i n effect recognized the Restored Government by communicating with Pierpoint as Governor of V i r g i n i a . In July the Senators and Representatives of tho Restored Government were admitted to Congress. Governor Pierpoint proceeded to raise troops and commission o f f i c e r s for them, for the Union army. Among these was Company A, 3rd V i r g i n i a Infantry, which was mustered i n at Clarksburg on June 25, 1861, with Oliver S. Jones as Ser/vaat. Three of his brothers, William, V i r g i l and Daniel, e n l i s t e d i n other units at about the same time.
(Lucy & Oliver Cont'd) Page 3
Thru the war years northwestern V i r g i n i a , and l a t e r West V i r g i n i a , was the scene of f i g h t i n g and of Confederate ra i d s , reaching as f a r as Morgantown and Fairmont, and nearly to Parkersburg. Charleston and the Kanawha v a l l e y were, for a b r i e f time i n 1861, held by the Confederates.
On November 26, 1861 a Representative Convent i o n , elected October 24 for the purpose, met at Wheeling to adopt a c o n s t i t u t i o n f o r a new state, to be formed by the p a r t i t i o n of northwestern V i r g i n i a from the rest of the state. This convent i o n deliberated u n t i l February 18, 1862. A speci a l session of the l e g i s l a t u r e of the Restored V i r g i n i a government, from May 6-18, 1862, petitioned Congress to p a r t i t i o n the state. This p e t i t i o n was presented t o the Senate May 29. Meanwhile, on May 22 an election was held at which the people elected Pierpoint governor of V i r g i n i a . I t was not u n t i l December, 1862 that Congress acted on the p a r t i t i o n p e t i t i o n , and then approved only subject to a change i n the proposed Constitution providing for the gradual a b o l i t i o n of slavery, which was permitted under the proposed constitution as submitted to Congress. This proposed co n s t i t u t i o n , however, forbade the bringing i n of more slaves, or coming i n of free persons of color to l i v e .
Another Convention met February 12, 1863 and accepted the change, which was accepted by the people i n an e l e c t i o n A p r i l 17 by a vote of 27,749 to 572. On A p r i l 20 Lincoln proclaimed the new state, and on May 28, 1863 an unopposed slate of candidates composed of an equal number of former Democrats and former Whigs was elected. The governor of the new state was Arthur I. Boreman of Parkersburg, whose wife was, by a former marriage, mother of John Bullock who l a t e r married Oliver and Lucy's oldest daughter, Florence. After i n s t a l l i n g these o f f i c e r s of the new state, Pierpoint moved his seat of government to Alexandria, and after the war to Richmond, remaining Governor of V i r g i n i a u n t i l 1868. His statue, placed there by West V i r g i n i a as i t s representative, i s i n Statuary H a l l i n the National Capitol i n Washington, D. C.
On the formation of West V i r g i n i a , the V i r g i n i a troops i n the Union Army became West V i r g i n i a troops, and Oliver served as Sergeant i n Co. A 3rd Regiment, West V i r g i n i a Mounted Infantry. Oliver's diary for 1864 i s i n existence. I t contains a calendar for 1862, marked to show that he fought at McDowal May 8; was at Harrisonburg June 6 when General Ashby was k i l l e d ; fought at Cross Keys June 8; fought i n the battle at Cedar Mountain August 9; and fought
(Lucy & Oliver Cont'd) Page 4
both days at the Second Battle of B u l l Run August 29 and 30. The 1863 a c t i v i t i e s of his unit could doubtless be obtained thru the War Department records. The start of 1864 found his regiment moving eastward by r a i l to Martinsburg, W. Va., where i t stayed u n t i l late i n A p r i l , with the Confederates a few miles south at Winchester, I t then moved to Beverly, W. Va., at the west entrance to the pass thru the mountains to Staunton, Va. There i t remained u n t i l August, when i t went to Wheeling, then the c a p i t a l of West V i r g i n i a , to be mustered out. I t saw no important action i n 1864, although i t sent out many scouting or reconnai-sance p a r t i e s , and the enemy was camped not f a r away.
Oliver was acting veterinary for his company of mounted infantry, and on Feb. 10, 1864 the recommendat i o n of his appointment as Veterinary Surgeon was f o r warded to Washington, but apparantly was never acted upon. He was much interested i n horses and t h e i r care and treatment, and did some buying and s e l l i n g of horses for his own account. His numerous comments on the weather, such as "a fine growing shower", showed his farm background and outlook. On Monday, March 2, he "received ten barrels of apples from home and sold them for t h i r t y d o l l a r s , paid nine d o l l a r s f r e i g h t on them". After moving to Beverly he was i n charge of "drawing rations" for the troops.
He enjoyed v i s i t i n g with the g i r l s , and car r i e d on an active correspondence with a number of them, as well as with home with his s i s t e r S e r i l d a . He also exchanged l e t t e r s with his cousins John F. Campbell and Sophia Vance i n Pa r i s , 111, When he attended church he recorded the preacher's name and the chapter and verse of his text. While he was a Methodist and usually attended that church, he sometimes went to others. He kept careful detailed accounts of h i s expenditures i n the space provided i n the back of the diary.
After being mustered out at B0§ PM" on August 13 at Wheeling, he returned home to Laurel Point and took up l i f e as a farmer. Late i n August he made an exped i t i o n of several days buying stock hogs and d r i v i n g them home. In September he threshed and plowed. Ent r i e s i n the diary ceased September 18, except for a few a couple of weeks l a t e r when he went on a t r i p fo r a few days.
After t h e i r marriage i n 1865, Oliver and Lucy moved to Parkersburg, Vi. Va., where he established a general store i n a r e s i d e n t i a l neighborhood, at 13th and Market Streets, s e l l i n g groceries, meats, yard goods and other merchandise. This store prospered
(Lucy & Oliver Cont'd) Page 5
and he was well-to-do, but he l o s t considerable money endorsing notes for friends. He also had a farm near town, with a dairy herd on i t .
The family l i v e d f i r s t i n the 1300 block on Market Street, and l a t e r at 1329 Avery Street. They were Methodists, and Oliver was on the O f f i c i a l Board of the F i r s t Methodist Church, i n which Lucy was activ e i n women's a f f a i r s . He was also active i n the Grand Army of the Republic (Union veterans of the C i v i l War).
Lucy and Oliver had eleven chi l d r e n , of whom seven grew up and married, and four died i n infancy. A l l the children were given f i r s t and middle names having the same i n i t i a l , but f i v e of them changed t h e i r names. Fanny Florence and William Wilber dropped the i r f i r s t names and became Florence and Wilber, while Grace Gladys and Edith Ethel changed t h e i r middle names to Pierpont, which had become the accepted s p e l l i n g by that time. Charles changed his middle name from Clarence to Carrington.
Sometime aft e r the turn of the century, when Oliver was i n his l a t t e r s i x t i e s , he gave up the store which became Morrison's. He continued to work with a nursery, s e l l i n g f r u i t trees, shrubs, and plants. In 1910 Oliver, who was born at Laurel Point on the west side of the Monongahela River between Morgan-town and Fairmont on A p r i l 3, 1336, went to Doctor Langdon»s sanitorium i n Cin c i n n a t i , Ohio, where he died after about a month on October 30, 1910. After his death, Lucy, who was born August 9, 1843, l i v e d with her daughter Florence at 1600 Avery Street u n t i l her death there i n August, 1925. Both are buried i n Cook Cemetery, Parkersburg, W, Va.

BANJAMIN JONES (8). When William M. Jones married the second time, i n 1860, Marriage Book B, p9 shows that he gave his parents » names as Benjamin and Anna, and stated that he was born i n Monongalia County. Deed Book 1, p387 shows that on Sept, 11, 1798 Benjamin Jones purchased 140 acres from John Evans f o r £100. The Marriage Bonds show that on Dec. 30, 1815, A b i g a i l Jones, dau. Benjamin who gave his written consent, m.David Lewellen. John Jones was Surety. On Aug. 18, 1819 Jane Jones, dau, Benjamin, m. George Smith, and on Aug. 25, 1819 Anna Jones, widow of Benjamin, m. Gawan Eddy.
Unfortunately the Census record for 1810 shows two Ben Jones families i n Monongalia County, one with three sons, two of them under 10, and four daughters, one of them under 10, the other with s i x sons, one of them under 10, and f i v e daughters, three of them under 10, both with both parents between 26 and 45. The 1820 Census shows but one Ben Jones family, with three sons under 10, one 10-16 andtwo over 16, and three daughters, one under 10, one 10-16, and one over 16. The 1800 Census for Monongalia County i s not known to e x i s t .
I t seems improbable that both Bens had wives named Anna, so that there i s a strong p r o b a b i l i t y that William M. Jones' father died before 1819 his mother remarried, and he and h i s brothers ánd s i s t e r s were raised as Gawan Eddy's step-children. In the absence of more data further conclusions seem unwarranted.
In 1782 Census of Monongalia County, V i r g i n i a the following Joneses appear as heads of fa m i l i e s of the sizes given:
John, 5. Jacob, 12. Benjamin, 6. E z e k i a l , 9.
The 1790 Census of V i r g i n i a was burned by the B r i t i s h when they took "Washington, D. C. i n 1814 In Fayette County, Pennsylvania, immediately north of Monongalia County, two Benjamin Joneses were Revolutionary War s o l d i e r s . One was l i v i n g i n Ohio i n 1830, and i s established as a DAR ancestor.
(Ancestry - Jones Cont'd) Page 10
There was one i n the 1790 Census of Pennsylvania, l i v i n g i n Washington Township, Payette County, with one female and no other males i n the household. So far no connection between the Benjamin who was William M. Jones' father and any of these has been established.
In 1926 Charles C. Jones, who was 30 when his grandfather William M. Jones died, wrote the following:
"His (Wm.M's) father came to V i r g i n i a near Morgantown early i n the l a s t century„ The family l i v e d i n Pennsylvania before that, coming from New Jersey, They originated i n Wales. I suppose the t r i p from New Jersey to V i r g i n i a probably covered a period of 50 years" c
In Montgomery's " H i s t o r i c a l and Biographical Annals of Berks County, Pennsylvania" (1909), p354, there i s an account of a Jones family which might conceivably f i t the above sketchy description, but i f so, there i s at least a generation m i s s i n g e
However, except for the Welsh o r i g i n , the desc r i p t i o n i s si m i l a r to that given i n M i l l e r & Maxwell for the Pattys, and i t s a t t r i b u t i o n to the Jones instead might wel l be a t r i c k of memory,,

Jones, h i s mother's name was Anna McMillan, Thus, there i s a p r o b a b i l i t y that her name was something l i k e McMillan.

EARLY FETTYS
The only pre-Revolutionary reference to the name PETTY found i s i n the Pennsylvania Archives, Third Series, v o l . 11, p. 56, where i n the Chester County Rates (Tax L i s t ) for 1765 P h i l i p and Jacob Fetty appear as "Inmates" i n East Nantmill Township. This probably means renters or hired hands, as d i s t i n guished from land owners. Both were probably married, as single men were on a separate l i s t .
(Early Pettys Cont'd) Page 13
The next reference found i s i n the 1790 Census for Pennsylvania, where George Petty, with f i v e males under 16 and four females, appears i n the l i s t for Hopewell, Newton, Tyborn & West Pensboro Townships, Cumberland County, and Conrod Petty, with three males under 16 and one female, appears i n the l i s t f o r Huntington, Menallen, Manheim & Tyrone Townships, York County, The former i s now party i n Perry County, and the l a t t e r i s now i n Adams County, and the d i s t r i c t s where George and Conrod l i v e d are f a i r l y near each other and a short way north of Gettysburg,
In the 1300 Census George was i n Toboyne Township, Cumberland County (now Perry County) and he had two males under 10, two 10-16, two 16-26 and one over 45, two females under 10, one 10-16, one 16-26 and one over 45, Peter Piety, aged 26-45, was i n Antrim Township, Franklin County, with a wife and three daugh ters under 10,
In 1810 Tetrick and John Fetty were i n Adams County, Pa, Tetrick was over 45, his wife was 26-45, and they had two g i r l s and a boy under 10 and a boy 10-16, John and his wife were 26-45, with two g i r l s under 10,
A l l the above counties are east of the mountains, or on thei r eastern slope. By 1810 the name George Fetty appears west of the mountains i n Greene County i n the southwestern corner of Pennsylvania, where his household of nine included two males and two females over 45, one boy under 10, one boy and one g i r l 10-16, and two boys 16-26.. At this Census, John and Samuel appear i n Monongalia County, (W.) Va., immediately south of Greene County, Pa, John, who was 26-45, had two females i n t h i s same age group, two boys and three g i r l s under 10, and a g i r l between 10 and 16, Samuel and hi s wife were both under 26, and had a boy and a g i r l under 10 and a g i r l (obviously not a daughter) between 10 and 16.
By 1320, the following Fetty households appear i n Monongalia County, a l l l i s t e d as engaged i n agriculture:

The above is a l l the information about early Fettys presently possessed by the writer. It i s speculated that the last listed George is the same George who was in Greene County in 1810 and in Cumberland County in 1790 and 1800, that he was the progenitor of the (West) Virginia Fettys and the father of the John who was the father of Edith who married William M. Jones.

ANCESTRY - PEIRPOINT
JOHN JACKSON PEIRPOINT (6) was b. 11*16-1005 at the Forks of Cheat in Monongalia County, (Wj Wa., at the farm his father inherited, about five miles east of Morgantown. He m. 11-20-1828 SARAH SMELL (7) (see below). L i t t l e i s known about his l i f e . In 16*35 he was witness of his wife's grandfather's w i l l (see under Phili p Smell). He was at one time proprietor of the St. Clair House, a hotel in Morgantown, and in 1862 he was an Assessor in Monongalia County. According to a grandson who was six when John died, he kept a tavern, was a "snort", and raced horses. According to two granddaughters, both born after his death, he was at one time overseer of the County poorhouse. One of these makes him a tavernkeeper, the other a river steamboat man and a carrier of the mail to and from Morgan-town. It seems clear that he Was the f i r s t , or one of the f i r s t , of the family to leave the land and become a townsman. A l l three grandchildren agree that he was bedridden for some years before his death.
He d. 12-31-1872 and is buried in Fairview Cemetery, on Route 119 about three miles south of Morgantown,
(Ancestry - Peirpoint Cont'd) Page 15
on the east side of the Monongahela River. The age given on h i s grave marker indicates h i s birth-date to have been 4-19-1803, but since t h i s was the date h i s parents signed a marriage bond and two days before they were married, and he was the second c h i l d , t h i s seems improbable. Three of his sons, dying before 1862, are buried i n the same cemetery, so i t i s probable he l i v e d i n t h i s v i c i n i t y .

SARAH SMELL (7) was born i n Monongalia County July 5, 1810. She was m, i n Monongalia County by Rev. Asby Pool 11-20-1828 to John J. Peirpoint.

For seven years before her death 11-26-1895 she was paralyzed and i n pain. She i s buried in Fairviexv Cemetery.

JOHN PEIRPOINT (24), the f i r s t of the name in transal-legheny Virginia, settled ?.t the Forks of Cheat in 17o9, This is the region surrounding the confluence of the Cheat River and the Monongahela, at the border between Pennsylvania and (Jest) Virginia. Where and when he was born i s discussed a l i t t l e l a t e r . He was one of the very early settlers in the region, the records showing three in 1766, one in 1767, none in 176Ö and fi v e , including John Peirpoint, in 1769. An attempted settlement a few years earlier vhad been
(Ancestry - Peirpoint Cont'd) Page 18
wiped out by the indians. One of his f i r s t acts was to build a fort, known as "Peirpoint's Fort".
In 1774 he married NANCY ANN MORGAN (25). He was in active military service 162 days under his father-in-law, Col. Zackquill Morgan, during the Revolution. On September 24, 1784 George Washington stopped at his house, where Captain Samuel Hanway, the surveyor, had his office, and stayed the night so that he could consult Zackquill Morgan, whom he sent for, as to roads west from the Potomac. Albert Gallatin, then 23 years old, was there to consult Hanway about lands he had purchased, and on which he settled, a few miles north. Gallatin gave up his bed to Washington, he sleeping on the floor. For Gallatin's own account of th i s incident, and the not very favorable opinion he then formed of Washington's intellectual a b i l i t y and aloofness, see J. A. Stevens, "Albert Gallatin" (Houghton M i f f l i n j 1883), p. 23. Gallatin was later Jefferson's Secretary of the Treasury, and for half a century an important figure in National l i f e .
The Land Commissioners for Monongalia County, which u n t i l the 1782 boundary settlement included a considerable area in oresent Pennsylvania as well as a number of oresent counties in West Virginia, met at seven places in the area. One of these was John Peirpoint's house. Their records show a number of grants to him in a number of locations, in some of which he was assignee to others* In the grant confirming his title,to,"400 acres to i n clude his settlement made in 1769" his name is spelled "Pairpoint".
On Dec. 22, 1787 the Virginia Legislature passed an act appropriating certain taxes to the opening of a wagon road to the mouth of the L i t t l e Kanawha, the site of present day Perkersburg, and appointing seven commissioners, of whom John Peirpoint was one, to administer the work.
John Peirooint was a prosperous farmer, and acquired considerable land. In 176%, when Zackquill Morgan was sel l i n g lots in newly laid-out Morgan's town, he purchased several. He apparently died suddenly, as he was sworn in on a jury March 14, 1796, and his w i l l was probated May 16, 1796. In i t he disposed of 1574 acres in five tracts, as well rré " l o t t s " in Morgan's Town. His personal property was appraised at t 292, a considerable sum for the time and place.

Ancestry of John Peirpoint of Monongalia County,
Virginia
A completely documented li n e of descent for the John Peirpoint who settled at the Forks of Cheat in I769 i s not presently available. When his grandson, Governor Francis Harrison Peirpoint of the Eestored Government of Virginia, suddenly appeared in the national limelight in 1Ö61, the Pierpont family in New England and the Pierpoint family in Maryland and eastern Virginia each proceeded to claim him. At least three lines of descent have been offered, vis:
yi , John was descended from the New England Pierpoints, who immigrated in 1640. This was offered by the elderl y New England Poet, John Pierpont (1785-1366), maternal grandfather of John Pierpont Morgan, in correspondence with the Governor in 1861. It was accepted by him, and a "Dear Cousin" correspondence ensued. For details see Ambler, "Governor Francis Harrison Pierpont" (Chapel H i l l , 1937). According to John C. Bayles in his "Pierpont-Avery Community", typed copy of which i s in the West Virginia University Library in Morgantown, John was born of New England stock in 1724. This would make him 45 when he settled at the Forks of Cheat, 50 when he married the 18 year old daughter of a man younger than himself, and 66 when his seventh and last child was born. Other accounts give birth dates as early as 1715, and specific parentage which i s demonstrably wrong,
2, John was the son of Francis and Sarah (Richardson) Pierpoint of Loudoun County, Virginia, and great grandson of the Henry Peirpoint who was in Annapolis, Maryland in I665. This family was mostly Quaker, John i s supposed to be the brother of Obediah, although there is no contemporary evidence that Obediah had a brother John, and to have been born in 1738, making him 36 at the time of his marriage. This version i s presented by Ambler as "more probable" than the f i r s t one. It was accepted by the National Pierpont Association in Maryland and Virginia, and presented as fact in their booklet issued in 1938, i t turns on a supposed marriage of the Henry Perpoynt who immigrated to Virginia in I635 and the Elizabeth Larkin who came there that same year, the occurrence of the name Larkin Peirpoint in Maryland in the 1700s, and the fact that John of Monongalia County named his oldest son Larkin. It
(Ancestry of John Peirpoint of ) ( Monongalia County, Va. Cont'd)
Page 21
w i l l be demonstrated in the next paragraph that there i s no known relationship between Larkin Peirpoint in Maryland and Obediah and his father Francis, and that he came by the name Larkin in a different way.
3. In Ann Arundel County, Maryland, in 1703 a John Peirpoint married Mahitabel, the widow of Otho Holland and the daughter of John Larkin, Who this John Peirpoint was, or what became of him, we do not know. Only three references to him have been found. In the records of A l l Hallows (Episcopal) Church in Ann Arundel County, indexed manuscript copy of which i s available in the Maryland Historical Society in Baltimore, John Peirpoint was baptized (as an adult, since no parents or sponsors are given) on Aug. 29, 1703. Larkin, son of Jno. and Mehetable Peirpoint, born Feb. 12, 1703 (1704 new style), was baptized March 26, 1704. In "Provincial Court Judgements", original court records in the Hall of Records in Annapolis, vol. PL (1709-10), p. 19, John Pairpoint and wife were in a lawsuit with Walter Campbell. Unfortunately the writing is indecipherable. These are a i l the records of this John which have been found. He was probably descended from either the Henry Perpoynt who came to Virginia in 1635 or the William Pearepoint who came to Virginia in 1643. There was a widow Mary Pare-pointe buried at A l l Hallows Jan. 4, 1698 (1699 new style).
Mahitabel appears in the records many times. She had six children by Otho Holland between 1685 and his death in 1701, the f i r s t three born in John Larkin's house, according to the A l l Hallows records. She bought and sold land, had lawsuits, was a witness at other people's lawsuits, was mentioned as a gossip, and even obtained a special Act of Assembly to get her rights in a land dispute. After her second marriage her name was variously spelt, most frequently Parepoint.
John Larkin, her father, was in Maryland from 1650, and was buried at A l l Hallows Feb. 4, 1702 (1703 new style) "aged 88 years at his death and upwards". He was an innkeeper and a large land holdre, and his daughters married well. When the Courthouse burned in 1692 the Government met in his house for a period*
Larkin Peirpoint Sr., born Feb. 12, 1704, moved to Prince Georges County, Maryland, with his mother and half brother James Holland, where on July 11, 1719 they bought land. On Nov. 18, 1725 he married, at St. Barnabas (Episcopal) Church in Prince Georges County, Chari t y Duckett, daughter of Richard Duckett, and on Sept. 24, 1726 their son, Larkin Jr., was born. An i n dexed manuscript copy of the records of this church are also on f i l e at the Maryland Historical Society. Apparently Charity died, for in 1730 Larkin and Sarah Simmons
(Ancestry of John Peirpoint of ) Page 22 ( Monongalia County, Va. - Cont'd)
were married at St. Barnabas by Rev. James Magil, and on Aug. 3, 1732 they had a son Jonathan. What other children he may have had by each marriage i s not known, but in 1755 David died and l e f t his estate to his father Larkin.
Larkin Peirpoint Sr. appears in the Prince Georges County records several times, as a taxpayer and property holder, in succeeding years. In 1746 he obtained two original grants of land in what is now Montgomery County, but which was part of Frederick County, Maryland when i t was organized as a county in 1748. He was a taxpayer in Frederick Counts from 1753 to 1766. In 1760 he obtained another original grant of land in what i s now Washington County but was then Frederick, which he sold in 1761 to the same man to whom he had the previous year sold the adjacent land he had inherited from his son David* These various land grants were each on the frontier when granted.
Larkin J r . , born Sept. 24, 1726, appears on the frontier in Augusta County, Virginia, in 1758, as Larkin Pearpoint. Hening's "Statutes at Large", vol. 7, pp. 181 and 134, show that the Virginia Legislature authorized payments to him of 4 s h i l l i n g s and .16 s h i l l i n g s for his service in the m i l i t i a . This was at the time of the last big French-inspired indian uprising, when the Bri t i s h were f i n a l l y driving the French from Eastern America. It was in 1758 that the B r i t i s h took Fort Duq-uesne, now Pittsburgh, from the French, and the following year that they took Quebec. Confirmation of the Br i t i s h t i t l e by the Treaty of Paris in 1763 opened the way to westward migration over the mountains*
At that time Augusta County, Virginia, which today i s the area immediately around Staunton in the Shenandoah Valley, took in most of present western Virginia, most of present West Virginia, and southwestern Pennsylvania. When John Peirpoint settled at the Forks of Cheat in 1769, that area was in Augusta County, and remained so u n t i l Monongalia Countv was s p l i t off from i t in 1776.
To the writer, the probability that the John Pair-point (as his name is spelled in the earliest record of him west of the mountains, and as the name is s t i l l pronounced there) who settled at the Forks of Cheat was the son of Larkin Jr. is so great that no other assumption i s tenable. If so, he was probably born in Augusta County about 1748-50, but neither t h i s , nor any other, line of descent i s proved.
(Ancestry of John Peirpoint of ) ( Monongalia County, Va. - Cont'd) Page 23
S t i l l another John Pierpoint appears in New Jersey br i e f l y in 1715, but where he t i e s in to any of the Pierpoint families i s unknown.
How the Virginia immigrants were related to the Pierre-pont family in the English nob i l i t y is also not known. Younger sons of nobles in England became commoners, and whether the immigrants were direct descendants of the nobles, and, i f so, how many intervening generations of commoners there were in this particular l i n e , w i l l probably never be known. In the present Greater London telephone book there are eighteen Pierpoints, one Pair-point, no Pierponts, and three Pierreponts, including Lady Alice,
ZACKQUILL MORGAN, (50), son of Morgan and Catherine (Gerretson) Morgan, was born in what i s now Berkeley County, W. Va., prior to 1737, probably in 1735. He and his brother David, according to tradition, served with the Virginia forces in Braddock's expedition in 1755 and Forbes expedition in 1758 which took Fort Duquesne (Pittsburgh) from the French, There i s , however, no evidence available.
In I76I he received from his father 1000 acres in Berkeley County which had been patented in Nov, 1735. He i s supposed to have emigrated, with his brother David, to the Monongahela Valley in 1766, Zackquill stopping near what is now Morgantown and David continuing to what is now Fairmont, W. Va. If so, he was second only to Nicholas Decker, who came earlier the same year, as a permanent settler in the Morgantown area. He evidently returned part way east, as he was in Bedford County, Pennsylvania in 1771, when he sold his farm at Great Meadows on Aug, 28, He probably returned then to the Morgantown area,
Monongalia County, Va., was s p l i t off from the D i s t r i c t of Viest Augusta in 1776 by an Act of the V i r ginia Legislature, of which Patrick Henry was the presiding officer, on Nov. 8. At that time both Virginia and Pennsylvania claimed what is now Western Pennsylvania, and the new county included a considerable area now in Pennsylvania. Zacknuill was appointed County Lieutenant, and Colonel in the M i l i t i a , by the Virginia Government. In 1779 Virginia and Pennsylvania agreed to the extension of the Mason Dixon l i n e , which had been surveyed to separate Maryland and Pennsylvania, and on a western boundary for Pennsylvania, and the

(Ancestry - Morgan * Cont'd) Page 24
jurisdiction of Monongalia Cdunty was accordingly diminished.
When the lines were surveyed in 1782 the established county seat was found to be in Pennsylvania, In May, 1783 the Virginia Legislature authorized the County Courts to meet at the house of Zackquill Morgan, At that time he was licensed to keep an "ordinary", which was a tavern or hotel. His f i r s t t i t l e to land at Morgantown was in 1781, but was probably the land he had occupied since 1772. In 17&\3 he had surveyed, and in 1784 sold lots i n , a town which, as Morgan's Town, became the county seat.
On Sept. 25, 17Ö4 he was summoned by George Washington, who was stopping at Peirpoint 1s house, about 4 miles away, where the surveyor, Captain Samuel Hanwey, had his office, and gave him information regarding three routes west from the Potomac.
He later moved to a house on Front Street in the town, and died there in 1795. He was buried within sight of Prickett's Fort and within a mile of his brother David's house (near Fairmont), An inventory of his estate was made on Dec. 6, 1795 by James Dunn, Morgan Morgan, and Richard Merrifield, and his personal property was valued at E 41 19s 3d, which was small by comparison with the estates of his contemporaries. His widow bid in his estate in 1796. He married, f i r s t , NANCY PAXTON, (51), by whom he had three children:
NANCY ANN, b. 1756, m. John Peirpoint 1774
Temperance, m, James Cochran.
Catherine, m, Jacob Scott.
He married second Drusilla Springer, by whom he had 11 children, whose names are given in the Report mentioned below.

MORGAN MORGAN (100) ~ In 1923 the West Virginia Legislature appropriated $5000 to erect a monument to Morgan Morgan, the f i r s t settler in what is now West Virginia. Gov. Morgan, a sixth generation decendant, appointed the Col. Morgan Morgan Monument Commission, which issued a Report in 1924, limited to 900 copies, of which copy 501 i s in the Carnegie Library in Pittsburgh. The report has photographs of the original land grant in 1735, signed

Lt. Gov. wm. Gooch of the Colony of Virginia, of the Monument and of the original grave marker of Morgan and Catherine Morgan as well as other photographs. The following information comes from the iieport:
Col. MORGAN MORGAN, b e Nov. 1, 1688, d. Nov. 17, 1766., was born in Wales, educated in London (probably apprenticed to a t a i l o r there), and came with 11 others to Christiana, Delaware in 1713, where in 1714 he married CATHERINE QARRBTSON, (whom see). He was a merchant t a i l o r in_ New Castle. Delaware and was coroner there four successive vears. 1726-1729.. About 1726 he bought land in the wilderness,'and started establishing himself at what is now Bunker H i l l , Berkeley County, West Virginia, but which was then in Orange County, Virginia, which embraced a l l of present W. Va. as well as much of the western part of present Virginia, In 1734 he was a momber of the County Court of Orange Countye In 1735 he received from the Colony of Virginia a land grant to the lands he already occupied. The original, signed by Lt. Gov. Wm. Gooch, is s t i l l in existence,
In 1735 he also received his f i r s t military commission of Captain; in 1742 he became Major, and died Colonel. About 1740 he fostered establishment of the f i r s t church in what is now West Virginia, Morgan Chapel. In 1738 the Virginia House of Burgesses divided Orange County into three counties, Grange, Frederick and Augusta. It required »20 educated men (i, e . , men who could read and write) to establish a County government; and there were not that many in Frederick County u n t i l 1743, when the f i r s t Court met in Winchester. At this Court Colonel Morgan Morgan headed the l i s t of Justices,

After unsuccessful attempts, the f i r s t permanent settlement in Delaware was made in 1630 by the New Sweden Company, organized in 1637 under a Charter from

sisted of 23 men, Swedish and Finnish, under Peter Minuit, a German of Dutch descent, who had been, from 1626 to 1631, Director General of New Amsterdam (New York), s e t t l ed in 1624. Seven additional Swedish expeditions arrived in the next ten years, but between returns and deaths, the colony ia 1648 had only 79 men, of whom only 28 were farmers.
In 1651 Peter Stuyvesant of New Amsterdam sent 11 ships, and 120 soldiers overland, to establish a Dutch fort there, in 1654 more Swedes arrived, and in 1655 Stuyvesant sent 7 ships and 300 soldiers, and took over New Sweden as a colony of New Amsterdam. In 1659 there were only 30 families there.
Dutch colonization between 1659 and 1663 brought the population to 700, mostly farmers, with 110 good farms. In 1664 the English took over a l l Dutch possessions in New York and Delaware, and except for a brief interval in 1673-4 when the Dutch retook them, held them. From 1674 to 1682 Edmond Andros was Governor for the Duke of York and governed Delaware from New York. In 1682 Delaware was transferred to William Penn, and treated as part of Pennsylvania u n t i l 1691, when i t obtained a separate government, but with the Governor of Pennsylvania at i t s head. This arrangement continued u n t i l 1767. In 1684 the population of Delaware was 4000.
The Dutch colonists did not use family names. Gerrit was a common given name, and Gerrit's son Hendrick would be known as Hendrick Gerritse. When the English took over, these names, anglicized, became "family" names. In the early English records in Delaware, we find various spellings, including Gerritson, Garretson, Gerritz, ^ Garritz, Gerritze, Gerritzon, and Gerritsen, a l l of which probably became Garretson, and the given names, Hendrick, Henry, Jacob, Marten, Poull, Paul and John,
Catherine was probably daughter of Henry, abstract of whose w i l l appears in "Calendar of Delaware Wills, New Castle County, 1682-1800", sponsored by the Colonial Dames and published by Frederick H. Hitchcock in New York in 1911, P 25, as follows:

EARLY SCHMELS
The only l i k e l y progenitors of the Schmel family given in Strassburger & Hinke*s"Early German Pioneers", which covers the same records of landings in Philadelphia during the middle half of the 18th Century as Rupp's "30,000 Names" and Pennsylvania Archives, 2nd Series, vols. 17 were:
MICHAEL SCIIM0HL or SMEAL, who arrived Aug. 27, 1739 on the "Samuel", Hugh Percy, Commander, from Rotterdam via Deal,
NICHOLAS SCHMEL.!.. ) brothers who arrived Sept. 3, JOHN ADAM SCHMELL ) 1739 on the "Loyal Judith",
Capt. 3ayriter, from Rotterdam via Deal,
Michael (1705-1776) was 34 on a r r i v a l . He i s known to have settled in Heidelberg Township, Berks County, Pa., where he was on the f i r s t tax l i s t in 1754 and on successive tax l i s t s u n t i l his death in 1776. The administration of his estate shows that his only child
i
(Early Schmels - Cont'd) Page 35
was Elizabeth, who m, Thomas Bassier; His widow's name is there given as Magdalena, and she may have gone to Bucks County to l i v e with her nephew, i f Michael and Nicholas and John Adam were brothers, and may be the Magde-lena who shows as a communicant at Trinity, and who i s li s t e d above as Michael Schmel's daughter. But i f Elizabeth was Michael Schmohl's only child, he l e f t no sons to carry on the name.
A typed volume in Berks County Historical Society, Reading, Pa., "Advertisements in German Newspapers Published in Philadelphia and Germantown, 1743-1ÖOO", shows that on June 16, I75O, the following appeared in Sowers Newspaper:
"Anna Elizabeth, widow of Lorenz Loch, from Braunholder, Zweibrucken, arrived in this country last autumn and lives at North Wales (Gwynedd, Montgomery County, Pa.) with Nicolaus Schmell. She seeks her brother, Johann Adam Schmell, from Cassel, who has been in America fourteen years".
The response, in the same paper on Nov. 1, 1750, was:
"Adam Schmell, Falckner Swamp (Montgomery County, Pa.)"
Shortly thereafter, in a comparatively small area, four families of variant spellings of Schmell appear. It seems probable that their heads were sons, minors at the immigration, of Nicholas and/or John Adam. Besides Michael in Kaycock Township, Bucks County, they were:
ADAM SMEHL (Schmael, Smel, Smell, and in the 1754 tax l i s t Schurel) of Ruscomb Manor Township, Berks County, who m, Vayte, and appears to have been father of Adam Jr., Conrad, John and Nicholas.
PETER SMALE (Schmail, Smeall, Smeal, Shmehl, and in the I79O Census Snale) in Upper Saucon Township, Northampton (now Lehigh) County and later in Chestnuthi.il Township, Northampton (now Monroe) County. He appears once, as Peter Schmeel with wife Elizabeth, at the christening of the i r son John Jacob 6-26-1774, in the Trinity Church records cited above. Otherwise, known children were Jost, Yoste or Joseph, and Peter J r ,
PHILIP SMELL, who appears but once, on the 1754 tax l i s t for Berks County, as of "Blue Mountains on Swatarro", now Pine Grove Township, Schuylkill County. A Philip with wife Magdalena and children Michael, George and Andreas, appears considerably later, b r i e f l y , as a commicant at Trinity Church,
(Ancestry - Smell * Cont'd) Page 36
It may possibly be the same one, and the Magdalena l i s t e d as Michael's daughter and elsewhere mentioned as possibly widow of Michael Schmohl, might alternatively be his wife.
In tracing the Smell ancestry here given, the writer c o l lected considerable, but by no means exhaustive, information on the above families. It has no place in this work, but may possibly be made available l a t e r , particularly i f more information comes to l i g h t .

GEORGE MAY, (30). Records of Mays in Monongalia County before 1823 are as follows:
MARY (15) m. 3-14-1802 Jacob Smell.
Susannah, dau, Ann May, m. 1-31-1804 George Shehan. William May surety on Marriage Bond.
William, m. 4-15-1807 Mary Van Gilder, dau Jacob Van Gilder. His dau. Sophia m. Nov. 3, 1848 Joseph Trickett. James May was surety.
Joannah, dau. George May, m. 9-28-1809 Michael Trickett, William May, surety. Their dau., Mary Trickett, m. 6-1-1829 E l i Moreland, (Michael Trickett, father and surety)
Sarah, dau. ? m. 10-23-1813 Joseph Grubbs. Richard Watts, surety on Marriage Bond.
Elizabeth, dau. George May, m. 8-13-1815 Lewis Williams. Jacob Smell, surety on Marriage Bond.
Sophia, dau. George May (deceased) m. 3-7-1823 George Armsworthy,
William and Henry May served in Captain Wilson's Company in the War of 1812 (see Larkin Peirpoint ).
Assuming that there was only one May family in Monongalia County, Virginia at that time, .^(which is probable but not proved), the above eight children were those of George and Ann May. It i s clear that George died between I8l5 and 1823, Otherwise, nothing certain is known.
(Ancestry - May - Cont'd) Page 37
According to "Willa Brand, her grandmother Sally Smell Pierpoint often told her that her grandmother May came on one of the ships whose tea was dumped in the Boston Teaparty. This would indicate a New England background. There are two May Genealogies covering Mays stemming from an immigration to Massachusetts in 1640. These were published in 1Ö7Ö and 1ÖÖ7. In this family George (and Lucy) were frequently recurring names. After the Revolution migrations westward from New England were extensive. It is quite possible that George w i l l eventually be tied into this family, but so far this has not been done.
