More About NATHAN DAVIS, SR. : Burial: Seventh Day Baptist Cemetery

Nathan was part of a close-knit Seventh Day Baptist Church community in Shrewsbury, NJ. In the late 1780's, he moved with his family first through Pennsylvania to western Virginia (now West Virginia), where they eventually settled lots of frontier land purchased from Samuel and Margaret Fitz Randolph and helped to establish the town of New Salem (today Salem, WV) with a number of other SDB families from Shrewsbury, NJ and elsewhere (see Samuel Fitz Randolph's biography for more details). Nathan was one of the original deed owners in New Salem.[1]

From the church records, Shewsbury church; "September 6, 1789, Then did the body of this church remove from Shresbury in order to settle in the state of Virginia. Names; Rev. Jacob Davis, with his family, William Davis, Sr., John Davis, Ephriam Maxson; Thomas Babcock; Zebulon Maxson; Benjamin Thorp, with all their families." "Sept. 13, 1789, Also set out the following from the same place: Simeon Maxson; William Davis Jr.;William Maxson, and all their families." " The next date that appears in the records is May 13, 1792, after the church had settled at New Salem, Harrison County, Virginia. The church then became known as the New Salem Church, to correspond with the name of the new palce of settlement." The church gives us no record of its history from the time they left until May 13, 1792, nearly three years later. In the meantime, they had in all probabliity gone in a very leisurely manner through Pennsylvania, stopping at various places with friends and acquaintances in the County of Fayette. Thence they crossed over the Cheat river into western Virginia, some settling for the time being on White Day Creek in Monongalia County, and later the most of them making their way across the Mongonahela, following up the west fork of that river, thence up the Ten Mile Creek branch of the West Fork River to the headwaters of the Middlefork of Ten Mile creek. Here lay a tract of land surveyed on Jan. 20,1786, for Joseph Swearington, the son of Catherine Swearington, whose husband, John Swearington, had been adjudged owner of this land. Although the six Nations had formerly relinquished all claim to western Virginia in 1768, they continued their depredations until the summer of 1795. The new settlers on Ten Mile Creek built for
themselves a blockhouse within the present village of Salem, and protected themselves as best they could against unexpected attacks by the savages. In the summer of 1795, occurred the last invasion of this country by the Indians, when they murdered three or four victims, took three prisoners, and returned to their towns in time to surrender their captives to General Wayne. Waynes treaty with the Indians at Greenville on Aug. 3, 1795 forever freed northwestern Virginia from Indian Terrors. Dr. Isaiah Bee of Princeton, West Virginia, a great grandson of both William Davises who emigrated from Shrewsbury, say that his great grandfather, William Davis, Called "Greenbriar Billy," from Green Briar Run, the name of the stream on which he settled in Virginia, told him, then a lad of 8 or 9 years,
that an Indian Chief said to the people at the fort at New Salem, that they were so careless that they (the Indians) could have killed them all had they wanted to do so. But as they wore shoes and coats, the Indians knew they were from Pennsylvania or New Jersey and were friends. Had they wore moccasins and hunting shirts, they would not have left one alive in the fort. Dr. Bee further states that he himself remembers an old lady by the name of Childers, nee Richards, of Meat House Fork, saying that she stood on a stump and saw the Indians scalp her father. These incidents and others indicate that the Indians were active in their bloody pursuits in the locality of the Seventh Day Baptists even
after their arrival at their new homes. The country abounded in game such as buffalo, elk, deer, bear, wolves, wild turkeys and other small game. As soon as they felt that it would be safe to do so, they moved to their farms. Three brothers, Nathan, Joseph and William Davis purchased a tract of twenty thousand acres of land at the rate of twenty three cents an acre. The ground was covered by an unbroken forest of heavy building timber of the best quality in great variety.

Nathan enlisted in the Continental Army on May 9, 1777 for a period of three years with Sherburns Regiment. He was at Rye on Dec. 6, 1777; At Fishkill March 4, 1778; At White Plains, July 21, 1778; Warren, October 9, 1778; Bristol, November 1778 to May 1, 1779; Absent without leave from Bristol Nov. 1778 to MAy 1, 1779; Morristown, March 2, 1780; Discharged April 30, 1780.

Notes:

SAMUEL FITZ RANDOLPH

Samuel Fitz Randolph (1738 - 1825) and his wife, Margaret, lie buried in the Seventh-Day Baptist Cemetery at Salem, West Virginia. They were the founders of the town. Edward Fuller, a passenger on the Mayflower, was one of Samuel's ancestors, aas were early immigrants, Thomas Blossom, Rev. John Lothrop and Edward Fitz Randolph. Margaret shared much of her husband's heritage because she and Samuel were first cousins. The practice of marrying one's cousin was not uncommon in 18th century America. Samuel and Margaret were married on March 25, 1761 at the Seventh-Day Baptist Church in Piscataway Township, Middlesex County, New Jersey. They were both born at Piscataway. Samuel was the son of Jonathan Fitz Randolph and Margaret, the daughter of Jonathan's brother, David Fitz Randolph. The Seventh-Day Baptist Church in America is not a large denomination compared to some others. However, in some sections of the nation, it is quite active. The Seventh-Day Baptist Church was an early offshoot from the English Baptists and came about, principally, because of their belief in the biblical Sabbath, which the Hebrews kept on the last day of the week. Samuel Fitz Randolph was a soldier in the War for American Independence. He served as Ensign in the Second Regiment of the Sussex County, New Jersey Militia.

After the war, Samuel Fitz Randolph prospered. Probably in the hope of speculation, in 1785, he bought eleven hundred acres of land in Pennsylvania. Eight hundred acres was a tract of virgin forest in Northumberland County. The remaining three hundred acres was a farm in the southwestern part of the state. By the year 1789, he and Margaret were living there. The Woodbridgetown Seventh-Day Baptist Church was formed on George's Creek, Fayette County, Pennsylvania, on June 6, 1790. Most of the church members had come from Piscataway, New Jersey. Among the constituent membership were Samuel and Margaret Fitz Randolph. The same year, on November 26, Samuel purchased from Catherine Swearingen two hundred and fifty-six acres. That tract was located in northwestern Virginia along Ten Mile Creek, a tributary of the West Fork of the Monongahela. The purchase price was 132 pounds, 10 shillings and 5 pence, Virginia money. Previously, that land, which included much of the present town of Salem, West Virginia, had belonged to Nicholas Carpenter, an early resident of Clarksburg. He had established a camp there from which he hunted the plentiful wild game. He also used it as a way station in his journeys to the Ohio to buy and sell cattle. Unfortunately, it was on one of those trips to Marietta, with a herd of cattle, that Carpenter and his son were ambushed and murdered by Indians. That atrocity occurred the year after Samuel bought the land.

The years of the Revolution were particularly difficult for the Seventh-Day Baptist Church at Shrewsbury, New Jersey. Several male members enlisted in the patriot cause and marched off to war. Some became Tories and were unwelcome in the churchh. A few were excommunicated for the awful sin of taking communion with members of the Church of England. The Battle of Monmouth was fought less than ten miles away from their church. And so it was, for whatever the reason, the congregation voted to sell their meetinghouse, in 1789, and join the migration to the west. The church record states that ten families left Shrewsbury. It is thought that others joined them on the way. The Seventh-Day Baptists settled on White Day Creek in Mononongalia County, northwestern Virginia. There they remained for two years. However, they were not pleased with their lands. The Woodbridgetown Church was not far from their settlement on White Day Creek. Samuel Fitz Randolph interested them in hihis tract on Ten Mile Creek about fifty miles away. They removed there and bought lots in the town that Samuel laid out. They also bought farms on adjacent lands. They built a log meeting house for church services and, remembering the fate of the Carpenters, nearby they built a blockhouse for protection from the Indians.

The town of New Salem was established by an act of the General Assembly of the Commonwealth of Virginia on December 19, 1794. The name of "New Salem" as a post office became "Salem," by order of the Post Office Department, in March 1884. Samuel and Margaret Fitz Randolph expired there and were buried on the hill behind their church. Some of their descendants still attend the Seventh-Day Baptist Church of Salem, West Virginia.

Notes:

Joshua GIFFORD is placed as a son of William because he named his oldest son William, and because he had at least one grandson named Benjamin, and because Jonathan of Little Egg Harbor (grandson of William) named one of his sons Joshua. Joshua was a very rare name in early Monmouth County.

Joshua GIFFORD was listed in 1748 as a freeholder in Shrewsbury Tp, Monmouth Co, NJ.

On 24 Nov 1750, Joshua and Hannah GIFFORD were baptized as adults into Christ Church in Shrewsbury. Also baptized at the same time were 3 of their children: Ann (age 8 years and 10 months), William (age 7 years and 5 months), and Joseph (age 1 year and 7 months). Their 4th child, Annaniah, was baptized on 23 Sep 1755, presumably as an infant. At that time, the family was listed as living in Shark River, probably near the present-day town of Belmar.

An inventory of the estate of Joshua GIFFORD was filed on 26 Feb 1793 in Monmouth Co, NJ, by Benjamin JACKSON and Annaniah GIFFORD.

The earliest ancestor of whom there is any record was William Gifford, who lived on the banks of "Shirk" (or Shark) river, Momnouth county, and died there in 1683. His son, Ananias Gifford. married at Long Branch, in 1687 or 1688, and their son, Joshua Gifford, married Hannah Dean. Ananias Gifford, "baptized September 23. 1755, was their son.
