    Notes:

    4th Virgina Regiment during War of 1812
    Moses Echols son of Moses Nichols Echols and Elizabeth Wynne served in the Lynchburg Rifles of the 4th Virginia Regiment during the War of 1812.

    Richard Echols was the fifth son of English John Echols who married Caty Evans - he was my grandfather - and by her had fourteen children. Three died in infancy. The rest lived to raise families. Their first son was Moses who married Betsy Wynne. They raised a considerable family. Their first son was John who married Fanny Formby and moved from Virginia to Tennessee. I know but little of the family. He was a one-eyed man, he was very smart and had great property. Their second son was Obediah. He married Betsy Terry. He died at about 65 years of age. I know but little of his family, only one son who lives in the western district of Tennessee by name of Champness Terry Echols, a Baptist preacher. Moses third son was by name of Moses who married a Miss Terry - cousin to his brother Obediah's wife. I know nothing of his family. Their fourth son was by name of Evans who married Anna Terry, sister to his brother Moses wife. They live in Virginia. I know no more of their family. Old Moses daughters were by name of Rebecca, Priscilla, Tabitha, Betsy, Lucy and Frances. Rebecca married Edward Akin. I have no knowledge of their family. Priscilla married David Bates in Halifax County, a very large man who offered for the legislature in the county that he was born and raised in when he was about twenty-five years old. He got every vote that was given in the county and the county was very large. He continued to go to the legislature as long as he stayed in Virginia. He then moved to Georgia, Wilkes County. He became a representative of Wilkes County in Senate and was once appointed President Senate pro tem - you can see his name in the digest of the laws of Georgia. He became so fat that it was supposed by the doctors that his fat melted in him, killed him before he was sixty years old. He weighed nearly four hundred pounds. He raised his family in Wilks County, Georgia but after his death they moved to Tennessee. I have but little account of them since. He had one son named Randolph and one named Anderson. Of the rest I have no account only one daughter named Susanah who married James Johnson of Oglethorpe County.



    Old Moses third daughter Tabitha married Nathan Formby. He moved from Virginia to Georgia and died in Walton County. He raised four sons and several daughters. His sons were named Moses, Obediah and Nathan. The other I don't know the name of, he married a Miss Harvie in Newton County and died there. Moses and Obediah live in Newton County. They both have families but I don't know the name of either of their wives. Nathan lives in Alabama. I know not of his family. One of old Nathan's daughters married John Whitaker and one married Henry Nichols. One Israel Moore and one married a Mr. Park. I know nothing of the family. Old Moses fourth daughter Betsy married Marlin Farmer. I know no more of the family. His fifth daughter Lucy married Jonas Meadows and that's all I know about them. His sixth daughter Frances married a man by the name of Shelton. I have no account of them further.

    From Rootsweb:
    Wynne's Falls
    For a while, William Wynne and his family lived in what amounted to solitary splendor on the banks of the Dan. In 1738, Wynne, a justice for Brunswick County received a grant for 2000 acres of river land on the south side of the Dan, beginning at a point near the old Indian encampment which straddled Rutledge's (now Pumpkin) Creek. Fifteen years later, in 1753, Wynne finally moved westward, building a home near a shallow ford of the river just above where the Dan cascaded over a series of rocks. In short time, this picturesque spot would be named "Wynne's Falls." A slow but steady trickle of pioneer families eventually followed Wynne to the Valley of the Dan. From New Jersey and Pennsylvania, via the Shenandoah Valley, would come Scotch-Irish and Germans; later, after the Revolution, would come the more impoverished denizens of Tidewater, seeking a jew life removed from the shadow of the aristocracy which held sway politically, economically and socially. By 1767, enough new families had moved into Southside to warrant a bisection of Halifax County. The new county was named Pittsylvania, in honor of William Pitt, Earl of Chatham. By the time of the first national census in 1790, the county could claim 11,000 citizens. At this time, the little settlement at Wynne's Falls served as a meeting place for veterans of the Revolution. There the old soldiers would fish-the river boasted copious schools of sturgeon-and swap stories.
    Many of these men, said Dr. George W. Dame (the founding father of the Episcopal Church of the Epiphany) in his "Notes on the Origin of Danville," decided to stay in the "very thinly settled part of the state to begin life again." One such veteran, John Barnett, operated a ferry at the ford and ran a line of bateaux-long, broad flat-bottomed boats steered by pools-for trading purposes.

    From wikipedia:
    The first white settlement (numerous Native American tribes had lived in the area) occurred downstream from Byrd’s campsite in 1792, at a spot along the river shallow enough to allow fording. It was named “Wynne’s Falls,” after the first settler. The village has a “social” reason for its origin, since it was here that pioneering Revolutionary War veterans met once a year to fish and talk over old times. The establishment by the General Assembly of a tobacco warehouse at Wynne’s Falls in 1793 was the beginning of “The World’s Best Tobacco Market.” Virginia’s largest market for bright leaf tobacco. The village was renamed Danville by act of the Virginia Legislature on November 23, 1793.

    1752 Moved to Lunenburg Cty., VA (same year it became Halifax Co., and in 1765, it became Pittsylvania Co.)
    This William Wynne was a Quaker by faith.

    William Wynne was 16 at the time of his father's death. Like his grandfather, he became something of an explorer...venturing into less explored land in Western parts of Virginia William Wynne was living in Brunswick County, Virginia, from 1721 (when he testified as a Bunswick witness in a Prince George Court) to 1736. (Brunswick was formed from Prince George, and parts of it were later divided to make Lunenburg, Mecklenburg, Pittsylvania and Halifax). Because tobacco farming rapidly ruined the soil, William constantly purchase new land to the west. To find such land, William joined other explorers (including William Byrd) in 1733. Many of the landmarks these explorers found were named for them....including Wynne's Falls (which later became the City of Danville). Shortly after his return to Brunswick from the 1733 exploration, he moved his family to the Western part of Brunswick (which would later be Pittsylvania and Halifax Counties). And he bought land all through the area. In 1753, he and a Clement Reed bought 36,000 acres in Lunenburg County. We also find several of his children (John, Elizabeth & Thomas?) in Lunenburg County, apparently on land their father purchased. But in his later years, William was living in Pittsylvania on land near Danville. William was appointed by Governor Dinwiddie to help organize the nearby county of Halifax where he owned considerable property. Before his death, William had transfered most of his land to his children.

    William Wynne, a younger son of Major Joshua Wynne, was born in Prince George County in 1705. His land fell in Brunswick County when it was formed from Prince George in 1732 and later in Lunenburg when it was formed in 1736 and Colonel of Militia in Lunenburg in 1749.

    For 100 years after the settlement of Jamestown new settlers continued to make their homes primarily in Tidewater Virginia, With the beginning of the second century of colonization there had begun a very pronounced westward movement of settlers. One very distinct direction of this movement was through Southside Virginia where was to be found rich, new soil. Tobacco was king and Southside had the kind of land to grow the finest tobacco.

    William Wynne, son of Major Joshua Wynne, was a pioneer leader in this movement. The record of his movement from Stony Creek in Prince George County across Brunswick, Lunenburg, Halifax, on to the Dan River in Pittsylvania County is recorded in Deed Books and in the Executive Journal of the Council of Colonial Virginia. As early as 1727 he had acquired tracts of land on Stony Creek and Nottoway River during the same period.

    He moved to Danville, Virginia in 1752, along with several others at the instigation of the English Crown to help halt French expansion eastward from the Mississippi Valley. He was a great land owner, close to 90,000 acres. Colonel William Wynne was a surveyor, a vestryman and possessed a large library.

    He made his Will on 8 October 1777, and died in 1778. His Will was proved 26 March 1778 in Pittsylvania County, Virginia.

    Colonel William Wynne, a younger son of Major Joshua Wynne, was born in Prince George County in 1705. (Deposition) His land fell in Brunswick County when it was formed from Prince George in 1732 and later in Lunenburg when it was formed in 1746. He was Justice in Brunswick in 1732, Sheriff of that county in 1736 and Colonel of Militia in Lunenburg in 1749. (Ex. Journals of Council 4 266-368; Bell, Sunlight in S,S. 116) The Tithables in Lunenburg for this family in 1749 were "Colonel William Wynne, William Wynne, Robert Wynne, Thomas Wynne". In 1750 they were Col. William Wynne, William Wynne Jr. Colonel Wynne moved to Pittsylvania where he was member of the first county court. (See V.H.G.-183 for his history there) In his will he mentions sons William, Thomas, Robert, and John. The first three names coincide with those in Lunenburg. In addition he had a son John and several daughters.

    The philoprogentive quality of the Wynnes and their predilection for repeating Christian names renders it quite difficult to unravel the tangled skein of their descent. Land Patents, however, and indentures extablish the validity of the ensuing pedigree. William Wynne, son of Joshua and Mary (Jones) Wynne, and his wife Frances, removed in 1752 to that portion of Lunenburg Co., Va., which in the same year became Halifax Co. and afterwards Pittsylvania, where he died in 1778. His son, William Jr. presumably accompanied or followed him and ultimately died in Tazewell Co. But his sons Thomas and John remained in Lunenburg near the Brunswick line. John Wynne had received a grant of land in Brunswick on the south side of Tucking Creek adjoining the land of his brother Thomas in 1746, just before the change in county line placed the land in Lunenburg. Fifteen years later Thomas Wynne received almost 3,000 acres more on both sides of Hounds Creek and also on the southern branches of Tucking Creek adjoining the land of Richard Stone. Twice in the following year Thomas sold some of this particular land to John (surname now spelled Winn in both cases and both described as "of Lunenburg County" Lunenburg Deed Bk.7, p.231, 4/8/1762, and p.338, 7/30/1762. In 1765 John Winn (designated as "Senior") conveyed to John Winn Jr. 381acres on the south side of Tucking Creek in Lunenburg adjoining the lands of William and John Stone.

    Then, after a dozen years, John Stone Sr. of Mecklenburg sold to John Winn, his son-in-law, also of Mecklenburg, 141 acres in that county beginning at the mouth of Buffaloe Creek along the Roanoke River. In exchange for which Winn sold to Stone similar land which he had purchased in 1768. In 1765 Peter Wynn of Lunenburg purchased some land in Mecklenburg.

    That Peter Wynn was a son of John Wynn (Wynne, Winn) is demonstrated by John's Will:

    Item, I give unto my son Peter Winn the lower part of my land according to the new line as before mentioned wiht ninety acres a survey lying on the Opposite Side of the Creek which is now in his Possession to hin and his heirs forever... The will refers to John's wife as Ann known to be the daughter of John Stone of Mecklenburg for the latters will mentioning son-in-law John Winn and his wife Ann. Peter Winn's wife Letty or Lettice was a daughter of Richard and Mary (Yancy) Stone.

    William Pemberton, father of Joyce East, was a Revolutionary War Soldier. War Department records indicate that Pemberton, residence not stated, served in Capt. Thomas Merriweather's Company, First Virginia State Regiment under Colonel George Gibson. He enlisted in 1777 for three years. Well-settled family tradition says Pemberton was at the seige of Yorktown and that he had part of one ear shot away by a shell. Pemberton was born in Virginia about 1750 and died in Adams County, Ohio before 1820.

    Rhoda Luck, mother of Joyce Pemberton, was the fifth child of Frances and Sarah Luck. She was married to William Pemberton in or about 1775 and died in Adams County, Ohio, Jan. 1, 1845.
    The compiler is in possession of a piece of linen which was spun and woven by Rhoda Luck Pemberton. The linen was part of the lining of a quilt. It was given to Ninna Arnold by her aunt, India Anne Arnold. Miss Arnold came into possession of the relic through her mother, Katie Luck Pemberton, daughter of Rhoda Luck Pemberton and wife of Josephus Arnold. Miss Ninna Arnold, then of Peebles, Ohio, presented the piece to the compiler in 1925.)
    Francis Luck was a captain of Pittsylvania Militia in the Revolution. Luck and twenty-six other men were nominated as captain by the Committee of Safety on Sept. 27, 1775. The list was returned to court and ordered to be recorded Feb. 27, 1777 (Pittsylvania County Records, Vol. 19, p. 307. See also Carter, The History of Pittsylvania County Virginia, p. 143)
    Isaac East was compelled to dispose of the land he inherited from his father to satisfy a debt. A public record entry dated June 11, 1805 reads as follows:
    "Isaac East of Pittsylvania County, in order to secure the payment of his debt to Samuel Panniel (merchant) of Campbell County, for which execution has been issued, Isaac doth hereby grant and sell 36 acres in Pittsylvania County on Staunton River, being part of the land of Thomas East, deceased, which was allotted to Isaac East by commission appointed to divide the lands of said Thomas East, deceased, which said 36 acres of land was lot No. 2 and bounded by the lands of Elizabeth East, Joseph East, and land of Obedience East's entry on land of Thomas East."
    Isaac East removed to Adams County, Ohio, early in the 19th century but the year is unknown to the compiler. He last appears of record in Pittsylvania County in 1805. It is known that he was in Adams County in 1813. William Pemberton went to Ohio in 1808 and it is not unlikely that Isaac East went at the same time.
    Isaac East lived one and one-half miles west of Locust Grove, Ohio, on what is now known as the "Old Dunbar farm." He was buried in Locust Grove cemetery on the highway between Peebles and Locust Grove. His gravestone bears this inscription: "Isaac East died Aug. 29, 1830 in the 54th year of his age."

    Miss Beatrice Davis, who visited the grave in March, 1925, at the request of the compiler, wrote: "I found Isaac East's grave in Locust Grove cemetery. The grave is well kept and had a good monument. The monument is old and leaning some yet it is in fairly good condition."

    Joyce East died in Adams county some time after 1850 for her name appears in the United States census report for that year. Her age then is stated to be 70 years and her place of birth Virginia. Her name was not found in the 1860 census. L. N. Conaway of Peebles, Ohio, born in 1846, told Miss Beatrice Davis that he remembered the funeral of Joyce East and that he was then 11 or 12 years old. This would place her death at 1857 or 1858.

    "Joyce was a lively and congenial woman," wrote Miss Davis in her report. "She had a disease, in those days known as 'wild-fire' and had to have one leg amputated above the knee. Yet she delighted to show the youngsters that she could jump over a log as well as they."

    A copy of a tintype picture of Joyce Pemberton East is in possession of this compiler. The original was owned in 1932 by Abigail Tener, (street address omitted for privacy), Sabina, Ohio. In response to an inquiry, Miss Tener wrote: "The kodak print of Joyce Pemberton East taken from an original picture in my possession was, as you say, a tintype. There is no mark whatever on it. When I was a small child and looking through the small album I would ask who certain pictures were and can remember father as speaking of this as 'Granny East.' As you know, Sarah East Tener and Joshua Tener were my grandparents.
    Joyce Pemberton East lived for many years with her daughter, Sarah and the latter's husband, Joshua Tener. She was buried in Locust Grove cemetery near her husband but her grave is unmarked.

    Isaac East bought land in Adams County and appears to have farmed until he died.

    (11) Isaac d aged about 27

    Isaac East (senior) seems to have supplied the names for his sons and Joyce the names for their daughters. All the boys had East names and most of the girls Pemberton family names. Rhoda was the name of the mother of Joyce, and Sarah of her grandmother, Sarah Luck. Nancy was the name of the wife of Joseph Pemberton. Joyce's father named his second daughter Caty (possibly from Caterine LeSeur) but she died young and he named his third daughter Caty Luck Pemberton.

    Thomas East, son of Isaac, engaged in farming in Adams County and as such was listed in the census of 1850. A value of $732 was placed on his real estate by the census enumerator. In the autumn of 1851 Thomas East moved to Christian County, Illinois. He lived in Taylorville during the winter and moved in the spring to a farm 2-
    1/2 miles west of Taylorville. He later moved to a farm in the northern part of Christian County near the town of Pawnee. He moved some time after 1860 to a farm one mile south and one-quarter mile west of Milmine, Illinois.

    Thomas, who also had a large family, appears to have acquired little property although he bought several places when land was cheap. Priscilla, his wife, complained some about moving from Ohio to Illinois. She was the daughter of Henry McCracken b March 22, 1781 in Pennsylvania; died after 1830 in Adams County, Ohio, and Ann (Holman) McCracken, born July 4, 1786 in Pennsylvania; died Sept. 9, 1878 at Clermont, Mo. Her parents had twelve children and a number were "bound out" to other families. Priscilla was "bound" to a family named Cannon. She had seven sons under 21 years old when her husband died but managed to hold her family well together and made special sacrifices to insure her children's education.
    The compiler is in possession of the original "Schedule of a Common School" for the Milmine district in the school year which began Oct. 3, 1864, shortly after the death of Thomas East. H. A. Stark was the teacher. Five sons of Priscilla East attended school during the term. Ulrich, 8 years old, and Oscar, 6, started on Oct. 3 and continued until school closed on March 21, 1865. Wheatly, 14, and Frank, 10, entered on Nov. 4. Joseph, 16, began on Dec. 5. Stillman Barber, the compiler's maternal grandfather, was treasurer of the school board. Attending as a pupil was Sarah C. Barber, daughter of Stillman, who became the wife of Wheatly East.

    Thomas East was a good carpenter and cabinet-maker and plied this craft to enlarge his income. He made baskets, chairs, handles for tools, and many articles of wood. Oscar N. East, son of Thomas, preserved a large chiffonier which his father made. Thomas East was a Methodist, and quite devout, as also was his wife, Priscilla.

    Priscilla East in the late years of her life lived alone in a cottage in Milmine next door to her son, Oscar. The compiler well remembers that when a boy his father directed him to stop on his way home from the village school and carry in for his grandmother a bucket of coal. She frequently rewarded him with a penny for his labor. Wheatly East took his mother half a hog after he had butchered in the autumn of one year, the compiler remembers.

    Thomas and Mildred (Timberlake) East had:
    (1) Lorenzo Dow unmarried; died aged about 90 years
    (2) Jackson b 1813 died in Virginia; m (1) unknown; m (2) 3 April 1865 Anna Dove.
    (3) Leland T/imberlake?/ died in Virginia; m
    (4) Thomas C b near Altavista, Va. ab 1809 d 8 April 1871 near Chatham, Va. m 1837 Matilda (Watson) Shackleford
    (5) John East d 1838 in Virginia; m Clarisa ___ who d 1883
    Joseph and Polly (Bell) East had:
    (1) Thomas b 25 Dec 1803 d 2 Oct 1890 near Fincastle, Tenn.; m Elizabeth West of Joseph and Catherine (McAney) West, b 1807 d 8 Dec 1894 in Tennessee

    (3) Isaac b 1817 removed to Sinking Spring, Ohio and died there, 1894.
    (4) Elizabeth Louise m William Bernet 16 Jan 1839 in Pittsylvania County

    Nathaniel W. East of Whittles Depot, Va., of John O. East, of Thomas and Elizabeth (West) East, wrote in 1925 that his grandfather, before 1848, removed from Pittsylvania County to Mercer County, Virginia. In 1867 Thomas removed to Fincastle, Tenn., with his wife and nine of his eleven children. Nathaniel W. East forwarded to the compiler a page from his father's Bible containing essential family data.

    Ezekiel and Elizabeth (Worsham) East had:
    (1) Thomas East b 1802 d 1867 in Virginia, probably on part of his father's plantation; m Parthaenia Lane who is buried in Lane cemetery near Straightstone
    (2) Wesley
    (3) Agnes unmarried
