By 1707, Ralph Shelton's name is found on the Christ Church Parish Register with the birth record of his first child, Thomas Shelton.

Ralph Shelton supposedly married Mary CRISPEN c1706 in Middlesex Co., VA. She was reported to have been the daughter of Thomas and Mary (LONG) CRISPEN who married 18 May 1687. This not proven. Mary remarried after her husband's death in 1734 to William CLARK.

From VA Vital Records #1 1600-1800 (Family Tree Maker CD #174), Broderbund, pages 259-260 of "Abstracts of VA Wills of Pittsylvania Co., VA 1803-1860", printed in "The Magazine of History and Biography - The William and Mary Quarterly and Tylers Quarterly", will of Mary CLOCK (sic), Parish of Nottoway, Amelia County, was dated 30 Jun 1750, probated 29 Aug 1770 (Mary had died in 1765). This document was witnessed by Crespen (sic) SHELTON, and John SHELTON. She named her "legitimate sons" Ralph Shelton, John Shelton, Crispen Shelton, Benjamin Shelton, James Shelton, and grandchildren Reuben Shelton and Patience Catesby BLOCKEY to whom she gave 1 shilling sterling. She gave her daughter Elizabeth DAVID (the name was actually DAVIS) the best of her wearing clothes, and her son Daniel Shelton and his heirs all the rest of her estate.

Prior to the Oct. 10, 1702 Middlesex Co, VA County Court Session, Ralph SHELTON was imported to North America, along with six other persons, by Thomas Merriwether (who was granted a headright for this importation): source - Essex County, VA Court Order Book 1699-1702, (Deeds and Wills Vol 10, p. 133). Ralph's surname was spelled SHELDON in this document. Probably, he was at least 18 years of age.

Researcher and author, Ken Shelton, who has a copy of the will, said that Merriwether wrote in his will (Essex Co. Deed & Will Book 1707-1711, p. 185-187): ...I give unto Ralph Shelton & his heirs forever sixty five acres of land granted to me by Patent beginning to the lands of RICE JONES *see note below & John Leh__le the land formerly belonging to Capt Edward Thomas..... At the end of the document, Ralph is a WITNESS to the will as well. This means Ralph could read and write, and was educated to some extent. The clerk transcribed his signature as Ralph Shelteon even though he spelled it Shelton within the text of the will itself. Dated 27 Jan 1708/9, probated 10 Feb 1708/9. The land was near the Dragon Swamp of Essex County (later Middlesex County). What relationship there might have been is unknown, but usually this type of bequest indicated a strong relationship.

After his importation, Ralph Shelton lived in Middlesex Co., VA for the remainder of his life. He was listed as a Surveyor and Appraiser, and primary occupation as a planter. Ralph was qualified as a general county road maintenance surveyor based on an entry in the Christ Church Vestry Book (page 201 of original, November to March, year not noted in book but context places it c1727, "ordered that Mr. Garrot Daniel and Mr. Ralph Shelton procession every particular person's land between Briery Swamp (from the Millstone Valley to the Dragon Swamp), and the upper end of the county, and from the main road to the Dragon Swamp, on the south side of the main road". Birth and baptismal records on most of Ralph's children are given in Christ Church Register.

Ralph Shelton's will was dated 10 Mar 1733 in Middlesex Co., VA., and proven in 02 Apr 1734. Elizabeth Davis (daughter), his wife Mary Shelton and his son Thomas Shelton were appointed as his executors.

Came over in about 1635. He had 3 children in 1636. He was a tobacco farmer.

From the de Halve Maen, 71(Summer, 1998): 37

"Albert Andriessen quickly separated from the others and built his own house, for which he requested payment from the patroon. The patroon protested this independance but chalked it up to the personality of Albert Andriessen. Van Rensselaer wrote to Peter Cornelisz, the millwright who had been one of the trio, 'albart andries separated from you; I hear he is a strange character and it is therefore no wonder he could not get along with you.' (A.J.F. van Laer, trans. and ed., van Rensselaer Bowier Manuscripts (Albany, NY, 1908), 406) An industrious but volatile man, Albert Andriessen was admonished by the patroon for abusing his family and for not keeping good accounts. Never afraid to act independently, Andriessen was a leader of the underground Lutheran congregation which was not allowed to worship openly in Albany until after the English takeover of the village. He also ran sawmills for many years, acquired property in Manhattan as well as in Albany, and cooperated with his sons and sons-in-law in several business ventures. His 1637 tobacco plot near the Normanskill was near his house and included one or more barns. Although Albert Andriessen sent back word in 1638 that the tobacco looked fine, samples of the tobacco he was raising proved poor and thin. . . . Albert's brother, ARENT, aided in the tobacco project,. . .

"Kiliaen van Rensselaer was not satisfied with the tobacco accounts; he instructed Albert Andriessen in July 1640: "first you must calculate what your dwelling house costs you, which concerns you alone; then what the drying houses or the tobacco, costs you, half of which is to be charged to you and half to me; further, as to my half of your board and that of the men whom you have employed, this must not be mixed and entered with the expenses for board, clothes and household articles of the whole household." (VRBM, 448) Albert Andriessen's wife, Annetje Barents, was a vital part of the operation; she was allowed wages for her work, and, as with any farm help, one half of her wages were to be charged to the patroon. It appears her duties were to do the cooking, washing, and cleaning for the farm helpers; in addition, she tended a garden and domestic animals. Time spent on her own household and children was separate.

"Albert Andriessen's contract ran out; the patroon grudgingly permitted him to continue in the colony with the understanding that if he obtained any livestock, one-half of the issue was to be reserved for the patroon as usual. Within a few years, Albert Andriessen took charge of sawmills on the mill creek near his house. For this he had no authorization until 1652. He also became a fur trader, in violation of his original contract. This violation caused further disagreements with the patroon, even after 1639 when the trade was opened to all, as Van Rensselaer expected one-half of their profits from all his employees.

"A few years after Kiliaen van Rensselaer's 1643 death, a new planter, Jacob Havick, undertook to raise tobacco south of the fort, beside the Normanskill. . . . In time, there were a few other residents in the area. Albert Andriessen's son-in-law, Teunis Cornelis Slingerland and his wife, Engeltie Albertsen Bradt, lived in a house on the plain (pastures) south of Fort Orange and had other sites in Albany. They obtained farm land on both sides of the Normanskill near Albert Andriessen at least by 1670. That year, Slingerland had a dispute with a neighbor, Peter Winne, who then lived south of the Normanskill, over fencing Slingerland's corn on the land. The couple had a house on the property within a decade. In 1677 complaints were made to the court that Teunis Slingerland intended 'to cut off the path below his house, across his land lying on the Normanskill.' This was the well-traveled path to Bethleham which ran across the property; he was forbidden to do this by the court. There were rare disputes; Teunis and Engeltie, who still held property in Albany, had become successful Albany traders.

Capt John White, b in Lancaster Sept 20, 1684; m. Eunice, dau. of Lieut. Nathaniel and Mary (Sawyer) Wilder, b. , 1690. The date of their marriage has not been found, but the following (found in Worcester Deeds, Vol. 4, page 162), dated May 1, 1724, proves her parentage :

"To all people to whom these present shall come Greeting. Know ye we the Subscribers namely Samuel Carter and John White, both of the town of l.ancaster in the County of Worcester in the Province of Massachusetts Bay in New England Yeoman, together with each of our wives namely Dorothy the wife of me the said Samuel Carter and Eunice the wife of me the said John White both our sd wives being daughters of Lieut. Nathaniel Wilder, some time of sd Lancaster Deceased, for and in consideration of the Sum, of Forty pounds. Hereby acquit exonerate & forever discharge our loving brother vis. Cornet Nathaniel Wilder of I-ancaster."

Capt. John White was a cooper and blacksmith by trade. He was with Capt. Lovell at the killing of the ten Indians. "Instructions to Captains Willard, White and Blanchard.

"Sir, I have the Account of y ' March & Return by your Letter of the 9lh Instant & Approve of your Proceedings, tho I am heartily grieved for the Death of the poor Man, & wonder that so many unhappy Accidents of this Kind have not been sufficient to warn our People of the Effects of such Indiscretion.

For mcl) Time will otherwise be lost at this critical Juncture. However if you must first come to Town let there be no Delay ; If any of your men are backward to go out again you must enlist others to make up your number. I shall not prescribe any Rout to you, you being-best able to judge where the Enemy may be mett with : Carry out as much Provision as you can, That so you maynt be obliged to return very soon : Be very silent & watchful on your March & Ambushments.

"In an appendix to an Address delivered in Bolton at the Centennial Celebration, July 4, 1876, by Reverend Richard S. Edes, is printed part of a diary 'found among the papers of the first clerks of the town.' The copyist acids, ' How old the book is, no one can tell.' It is a journal of the scout of Captains Lovell and White 'when the 10 Indians were killed,' February, 1724; probably written by one of the Lancaster soldiers there present. The minutes of the first eight days have been torn off."

с. William Dummer Esqr. Lieut. Governour and Comander in Chief the honblc. the councill and Representatives for the Province of the Massachusetts Bay in New England in General Court Assembled at Boston the 23d day of December Anno Dom 1727.

The Petition of Eunice White Relict widow of Capt. John White late of Lancaster deced. Humbly Sheweth. That Whereas your Petrs. sd husband in his life time in the years 1724 & 1725 as well as at other times performed sundry marches ag '. the Indian Enemy and did other services for the good of his Country & was active and vigorous in the Defence thereof against those barbarous Salvages, not only hazarding his life but Expending good part of his substance therein, as is well known to many. Some few Instances whereof your Petr. would humbly ripresent to this Honblc Court. Vor. Petrs. sd. husband altho he had divers times had the honour to bear command yet voluntarily Enlisted himself under the late Capt. hovewell, and choose rather to go as an Under Officer at that time because he would do what in him lay to Encourage others to Enlist and marched with him at the time when they killed the 'J'en Indians, in which march they were out near Forty days. Then he performed a march to a place called Cohosse on Connecticut River thinking to meet with the Enemy there and came in at Fort Dummer, being out thirty four days, tho they missed of their desired Success ; Then in about Eight days time he had a Company raised and went to Pigwacket to bury Capt. Lovewell which he performed in'a very difficult season of the year. Then he went to Connecticut at his own cost and charge to get a Company of Mohege Indians in order to go down to St. Francois to take an Indian fort there, but failing of his aim, he returned home and then enlisted a Company of Voluntiers and marched designing for a Fort beyond Pigwacket, but was taken sick before he got there, returned home and dyed leaving your Petr. his bereaved widow with seven Children the Eldest about Fifteen years old and Four of them very young, & one she then went with who is now living; In all which Services your Petitrs. said husband cheerfully underwent many hardships and difficulties for the good of his country, and was at considerable Cost and Charge, by Supplying those that Enlisted under him with necessaries which could not be readily obtained elsewhere, purely to make dispatch.

Now Forasmuch as the Sickness of which your Petrs. husband dyed was in all probability Occasioned by means of yc difficulties he underwent in the Publick Service, & that he never in his life time had an Opportunity of asking your Honrs. Favour for his past Services but was taken away in the Strength and vigour of his life, without receiving anything from the Publick more than 2s 6(1 p day for the three marches he performed as afores1' and in regard your Petr. is left a disconsolate widow with several Fatherless Children to bring up who stand in daily need of relief and Support, your Petr. finding it very difficult to provide for them. She therefore most humbly Implores your Honrs. pity and Compassion to herself & Children, and that as you have been pleased in like cases to reward those that have served the Province, and the Representatives of those that have lost their lives in the Publick Service. So that she may Experience of the Bounty & Goodness of this Honoble Court to her in her difficult Circumstances, and that you will be pleased to Grant her Two hundred and Fifty acres of the unappropriated Lands of the Province that she may dispose of the same for the Education and bringing up her aforesd. Children or that your Honrs. would otherwise relieve her as in your Great Goodness & Compassion you shall see meet. And as in duty bound your Petitr. shall ever pray &c.

Eunice White."

In the House of Representatives December 28th. 1727. Read and in answer to this Petition, Resolved That the sum of One Hundred pounds be allowed and paid out of the publick Treasury to the petitioner the widow Eunice White in Consideration of the good Services done this province by her late husband Capt. John White, and great expences for which he has had no Consideration, as particularly set forth in the petition and the better to enable the petitioner to support her Family and bring up her Children.

Capt William Tucker b. 7 Jan 1589 in Cornwall England and Died in Elizabeth City, VA in 1644
Capt. William Tucker was responsible for brutally suppressing the Powhatan Indians in 1623:

'In May 1623 the colonists arranged a spurious peace parley with Opechancanough through friendly Indian intermediaries. On May 22, Captain William Tucker and a force of musketeers met with Opechancanough and other prominent Powhatans on neutral ground along the Potomac River, allegedly to negotiate the release of the other captives. But Tucker's objective was the slaughter of Powhatan leaders. After the captain and the Indians had exchanged 'manye fayned speeches,' approximately 200 of the Powhatans who had accompanied their leaders unwittingly drank poisoned wine that Jamestown's resident physician and later governor, Dr. John Pott, had prepared for the occasion. Many of the Indians fell sick or immediately dropped dead, and Tucker's men shot and killed about 50 more. Some important tribal members were slain, but Opechancanough escaped, and with him went any hopes of a quick return for the captured women. Between May and November of that same year, the colonists ravaged the Powhatans throughout Tidewater Virginia. The 'fraudulent peace' had worked, and the Indians had planted corn 'in great abundance' only to see Englishmen harvest it for their own use. Successful raids by the settlers not only proved the undoing of the Powhatans but made fortunes for several Jamestown corn profiteers. These raids against the Indians helped to heal the emotional wounds of the colonists, but victory came at a high price. While the captive women suffered alongside their captors, the Indian war transformed the colony into an even cruder, crueler place than before. The war intensified the social stratification between leaders and laborers and masters and servants, while a handful of powerful men on Virginia Governor Sir Francis Wyatt's council thoroughly dominated the political, economic, and military affairs of the colony. It soon became clear that the fate of the missing women depended not upon official concern or humanitarian instincts but upon the principle that everything and everybody had a price. Near the end of 1623, more than a year and a half after the uprising, the prosperous Dr. Pott ransomed Jane Dickenson and other women from the Indians for a few pounds of trade beads. After her release, Dickenson learned that she owed a debt of labor to Dr. Pott for the ransom he had paid and for the three years of service that her deceased husband had left on his contract of servitude at the time of his death. She complained bitterly that her new 'servitude . . . differeth not from her slavery with the Indians.' By 1624, no more than seven of the fifteen to twenty hostages had arrived in Jamestown. The majority of them returned with Jane Dickenson. Those who did not come back were presumed killed during the 1622 attack, although one captive, Anne Jackson, was not returned until 1630. Mistress Boyse, the first of the missing women to rejoin the colony, was not mentioned in official records following her return. Another of the captives, Mistress Jeffries, died within a few months of her release. Anne Jackson probably returned to the colony badly broken from the consequences of her captivity, for in 1630 the council ordered that she 'bee sent for England with the first opportunity,' with the stipulation that her brother take care of her until she was on board a ship. Nothing more was heard of Jane Dickenson after she petitioned the council in March 1624 for release from her 'slavery' with Dr. Pott.'

From the Virtual Jamestown timeline: 1623
May: Captain William Tucker concludes peace negotiations with a Powhatan village by proposing a toast with a drink laced with poison prepared by Dr. John Potts; 200 Powhatans die instantly and another 50 are slaughtered.

Capt. John Street, probably descended from the intermarriage of the Street and Burch families. On his coat of arms is this history

"The Arms of the Antient family of Street are Thus blazoned (viz.) the field Gules; Three Catherine Wheels, Or., Being impaled with the Antient Arms of Burch, whose field is azure, three flowers deliz, ermine, mantled Gules, doubled Argent as herein depicted."

Capt. John Street, born about the beginning of the 18th century, at Bristol, England, was a member of the Protestant Episcopal church. Was bred to the sea. Came to Virginia in the habit of mate of a merchant vessel; was promoted to be Captain; married Hannah Waddy, daughter of Anthony Waddy, inspector of tabacco at a place known as Waddy's Warehouse, on the Pamunky River, New Kent Co., Virginia.

He was a merchant, and afterward purchased a plantation on the south side of Metadaquin Creek, in Hanover County, Virginia, where he resided the last part of his life, acting as County Surveyor and Inspector of Tabacco at the town of New Castle.

Capt.John Manning tried for treason and cowardice
John Manning
MANNING, John, soldier, born in England; died probably in New York, after 1686. He is thought by some to be the same Captain John Manning who was in Boston about 1650, and to have been of the family of William Manning, merchant, of Cambridge and Boston. His employment in New York came through the recommendation of Samuel Maverick, who, in a letter of 16 September, 1663, to the Earl of Clarendon, lord high chancellor of England, commended Manning as one "who hath many years been a commander under Major-General Morgan, who hath given him a large and ample certificate, which he will shew you He is well known and beloved in New England, and will be fit for any employment in the militia." He came to New York in 1664, and in the same year accompanied the expedition for the reduction of Fort Orange, where he attended and was a witness to the first treaty that the English concluded with the Five Nations, and after the surrender of the place was left in charge of the fort. He was high sheriff of the city of New York from 1667 till 1672, in 1669 was a member of the commission that was sent to Esopus to regulate the affairs of that district, was judge of the court for the West Riding of Yorkshire, and acted as high sheriff of Yorkshire from 1671 to 1673. He enjoyed the confidence of Governor Lovelace, served as a member of his council, and when the governor was called to any distance from the city, Fort James and public affairs were placed in Manning's charge. While he was thus in command, in 16'73, the Dutch fleet arrived and demanded the surrender of the fort, which, after some resistance, was given up. He sailed for England, waited on the king and Duke of York, and explained to them the particulars of the surrender, on hearing which the king turned to the duke and said:" Brother, the ground could not be maintained with so few men." He returned to New York with Governor Andros, and was soon afterward tried by court-martial on charges of treachery and cowardice. He was acquitted of the former but found guilty of cowardice, and on 5 February, 1675, sentenced to have his sword broken over his head and rendered incapable of again holding office under his majesty, which sentence would scarcely seem justified from the facts of the surrender. He retired to the island that had been granted to him in 1688, then called " Manning's island," but since well known as Blackwell's island, where he was accustomed to entertain his friends.

CAPTAIN BURWELL LEE, JR., son of Major Burwell Lee and Ann Arnold, was born 1800 and died 1872 Pittsylvania Co., VA. He married first, Matilda Arnold, who was his first cousin, and daughter of John Arnold and Patsy Lee. Matilda died 15 March 1843 and left Burwell with 7 children to raise. Matilda's obituary was published 4 April 1843 in the "Lynchburg Virginian". Burwell quickly married secondly, Elizabeth Purcell, daughter of Thomas Purcell and Lucy Brown, on 27 November 1843. Thirdly, he married the widow, Mildred (Dillard) Doyle on 12 October 1857. Burwell was an honored man in his community. He had established himself and was doing very well until the Civil War. He donated land for the Leesville Methodist church as well as land for erection of a school in the Town of Leesville, VA.. It appears that Burwell Lee, Jr. and family were living with the elders Lees or on their property in Campbell Co., VA, until about 1853. Capt. Lee was a Justice of the Peace for Campbell Co., VA. On 18 November 1853, Burwell purchased 115 acres in Pittsylvania Co., VA, from the Walden family and then on 23 November 1853, Burwell purchased an additional 270 acres on the Staunton River from Richard H. Wal[d]ton, et al. From a manuscript by Thelma Howell Bennett dated 1983 - "Grandfather Lee built his home in 1859 on land received from his father, (Burwell Lee, Jr.) and located in Pittsylvania County across the river from Leesville, VA. It was a one and one-half story, L-shaped clapboard house with four bedrooms, kitchen and dining room. A picket fence surrounded the vegetable garden, and hollyhocks and roses grew in profusion around the yard. There were some large Osage orange trees and walnut trees at the back of the house. There was also a large orchard of apples, pears, and plums.” This home overlooked the Staunton River.

The 1860 Castle Craig census shows Burwell with real estate valued at $4000.00 and a personal estate valued at $24500.00 and, herein, starts the real downturn in the family wealth and increased hardships that came to them as a result of the Emancipation Proclamation. After the Emancipation Proclamation in 1862, life for Burwell Lee, Jr., and his family just began to get worse. The land was worn out, the cheap labor was gone, and their Confederate money was useless. Gentleman planters had to learn how to survive on their own now and many had large families.

On 23 January 1863, Burwell and his third wife, Mildred sold 121 acres on Main Road to Lynchburg near Pannill‘s stables for $1334.95 to Morton Pannill. Also on this same date, they sell to Abner Anthony, Jr. 332 acres Plumbtree Branch adjoining the main Lynchburg for $3665.05. One month later, Burwell and Mildred sell an additional 133 acres to Walter Nagle for $600 on waters of Ralph Branch. Their 1/5 interest in the lands of Dr. Lynch Dillard consisting of 200 acres was also sold to John W. Motley on 22 December 1864. Burwell has now sold 453 acres of land in order to raise some cash.

In order to raise more cash, Burwell sold to son to Jeremiah A. Lee of Pittsylvania Co. on 12 December 1866 recorded 26 December 1866 - 200 acres - $1500 - tract of land lying and being in the County and State aforesaid upon the waters of Staunton River and the waters of Jaspers Creek… containing about 200 acres be the same more or less to have . . ." s/Burwell Lee. (Note Jeremiah, in turn sells this land on 11 August 1884 recorded 8 September 1844 to brother Robert A. Lee for $500.00 - who in turns sold it on 31 August 1884 to Griffin Dobyns for $1000.00.) He then sold another 186 acres to son Robert A. Lee on waters of Staunton River on 1 January 1866. (Note Burwell has now sold a total of 839 acres.)

As things began to be increasingly difficult, Burwell Lee on 26 May 1869 signed a Deed of Trust, with son Robert A. Lee as trustee to Virginia T. Lee, Lucy E. Lee, Eli Parker, Pannill and Franklin and Jeremiah A. Lee. This deed shows that Burwell, as guardian, owed Lucy $1250 since 1858; Eli Parker $100 since 1867; Pannill and Franklin $50 since 1869 and Jeremiah Lee $100 since 1869. Burwell now has put up his land containing 420 acres on Staunton River all his farm animals, plantation tools, household and kitchen furniture, crops and sorghum mill. Burwell was to remain in quiet and peacable possession of the said tract or parcell of land…until default be made. The note was due 1 April 1870. He apparently could not meet the due date of the trust and so……………… in 1870, Burwell is shown with real estate valued at $3500 and a personal estate of $700. His personal wealth has shrunk $23,800. He has little cash left now and most of his property is gone.

On 4 June 1871, Burwell, under the Homestead Law, claimed 276 acres on the waters of Staunton River and Jasper’s Creek which he assessed at the price of $6.00 per acre for a total of $1600. He also included the following articles say one old desk and bookcase one sideboard one bureau three bed and bedsteads and furniture, one gray mare, filly, all of which I value at the sum of two hundred and fifty dollars.

Captain Burwell Lee, Jr., and Martha Kerziah Arnold had the following children:
1. Angelina Catherine Lee married Washington Arnold, son of Chesley Arnold and Susannah Wesley Andrews.
2. Martha Lee appears living with her parents in 1850. No further information.
3. Edward Price Lee married 1)Hardinia Duke 2)Affiah Susan Arnold
4. Julianna Lee married John A. Franklin - no further information
5. Jeremiah A. Lee married Medora Lee went to Lafayette Co., MO.
6. Robert Austin Lee married Martha Kerziah Arnold and remained in Pittyslvania Co., VA
7. Chestina Lee died unmarried in 1866 in Pittsylvania Co. VA.

Captain Burwell Lee, Jr., and Elizabeth Purcell had the following children:
8. Virginia T. Lee died 1875 unmarried in Pittsylvania Co., VA.
9. Alonzo H. Lee - no further information
10. Lucy E. Lee married George Austin, son of William C. and Susan L. Austin.

Angelina and Washington Arnold went to Oglethorpe Co., GA where she died soon thereafter. No further information on Martha or Julianna Lee, or on Alonzo H. Lee, who was born about 1850 according to census records, except as Burwell writes in a letter to Mosby Arnold on 30 April 1866 - “I have my own daughter and wife to support, no son with me, one married and one single son…” His "married son" would be Robert; the other "single" son must have been Alonzo. Lucy appears on the 1900 St. Clair Co., AL, census with one child and married 25 years.

Captain Christopher Clark was born 1681 in Virginia and died on 28 May 1754 in Louisa, Virginia.

Married:

Elizabeth
Penelope (surname unknown) Clark (1684 - 1760)
Capt Christopher did have a first wife named Elizabeth. They never had any surviving children. She must have died around 1708 since all mention of her disappears and Christopher Marries Penelope around 1708 or 1709. They then have their first son EDWARD, in 1710 ( off the top of my head ) followed by all sorts of children who lived.

Disputed Origins
Seen as son of Micajah Clark (1659 - 1706) and Sallie Ann Moorman Clark (1662 - 1710). However, an argument presenting Edward Clark is seen here: https://www.geni.com/discussions/196579?msg=1297453

Brief Biography
He was a Captain in the militia, a lawyer, and a merchant. He is mentioned in the will of his law partner, Nicholas Meriwether, who calls him "Captain". He was justice of the peace in Louisa County in 1742. He is stated to have joined the Quakers in "1742 or 1749". In 1749, he was appointed an "overseer" of a meeting of Quakers near Sugarloaf Mountain in Albemarle County. His will was written 14 Aug 1741, in which he gave to his son Bolling, "my trooping arms and my great Bible, and all my law books".

Christopher Clark was mentioned in the St Peters Parish New Kent county Vestry records in 1697 and again on 14 Jan 1698. ( the Church of England being the official govt authorized church ) The Vestry book talks about clearing land and building roads. Christopher, and Edward Clark were ordered to be involved along with others.

Edward Clark was mentioned in the church records for 1692 and 1693with him assigned to the duties of Sexton. {charged with the maintenance of its buildings and/or the surrounding graveyard.}

On Feb 28, 1700 Christopher Clark and his then Wife ELIZABETH, signed as witnesses to the marriage of their friends Thomas Lankford and Martha West. Edward Clark also signed as a single person. Nine other people signed as well.

Later he marries Penelope around 1708 or 1709

By wife Penelope (unknown surname) he had seven children born between 1710-1722. He was a Captain in the militia, a lawyer, and a merchant. He is mentioned in the will of his law partner, Nicholas Meriwether, who calls him "Captain". He was justice of the peace in Louisa County in 1742. He is stated to have joined the Quakers in "1742 or 1749". In 1749, he was appointed an "overseer" of a meeting of Quakers near Sugarloaf Mountain in Albemarle County.

Captain John Baker was born between 1737 and 1740 in Bingen-on-the-Rhine, Prussia. He died in 1787 at Bakers Station, Ohio Co, VA., killed by Indians. He was buried in Graveyard Run, Cresap, Marshall Co, WV.

Came to America 1740-1750, Philadephia, on the ship Neptune from Rotterdam, German, Revolutionary War Veteran, Killed by Indians. It is believed John had a brother, Jacob who died unmarried in 1836 and a sister, Beulah who married a Philpot. There may have been another brother, Michael. Some believe all came to America together but no proof has been found. John is believed to have served a six year service for his passage, and that he first married before leaving for America; she dying at sea following birth of her first child. Abt 1760 he married Elizabeth Adams, some say Elizabeth Sullivan, could have been Elizabeth Adams Sullivan. She was born 1744 and died 1836 in Monroe Co, OH, and buried on the old Matz farm. It is believed John served as a Captain in Col Silas Hedges 11th Regiment of drafted militia for the Colony of VA, but some think this is a different John Baker.

INDIAN TROUBLES--EARLY REMINISCENCES.
From an article published in the Wheeling Intelligencer, of May, 1866, the following is obtained:

Colonel Samuel P. Baker, from whom these facts were ascertained, lives near Benwood, Union district. He is the second son of Henry Baker, and was born in the year 1798. In the year 1825 he married Caroline, oldest daughter of Samuel Tomlin. He now lives on a part of the 600 acre tract of land formerly owned by Tomlinson, and is now in his eighty-first year, and is the oldest native born citizen living in Marshall county. He is a very intelligent old gentleman and what he relates is authentic. The following was written nearly verbatim:

"John Baker, my grandfather, was a Prussian, and he came to the United States in the year 1755. He landed at Philadelphia, where he married a German lady by the name of Elizabeth Sullivan, in the year 1760. Immediately after his marriage he moved to the Shenandoah valley, Virginia, where in the year 1763 Henry Baker, my father, was born. In the year 1767 he emigrated from there to Dunkard Creek, Greene county, Pa., and settled among the Indians, four tribes of whom were then living there in peace with the whites, viz: the Delaware, the Wyandots, the Swanees, and the Mingoes. He remained there until the breaking out of Dunmore's War, when he took refuge with his family in what was then called Redstone Old Fort, now Brownsville, Pa. In the year 1781 he went to where Washington, Pa., now stands, then known as Catfish Camp. About this time the country about there was very much alarmed, and the people were on the lookout for the Indians, who were reported to have crossede river near Holiday's Cove, and were expected to make inroads upon the settlements. An express was sent to Wheeling fort to give the alarm concerning it. The party sent consisted of Henry Baker, my father (then eighteen years of age,) Henry Yoho, and ------Starnater. They traveled in safety until they came to the Narrows, on Wheeling creek, near where Col. Woods lived and died. Here they were ambushed by a party of Indians. Starnater shot the Indian nearest him and in return he and his horse were immediately killed. Yoho's horse was shot and fell but arising almost immediately it dashed through the Indians, carrying him away in safety to Wheeling fort. Baker's horse was shot but ran some hundred yards when it fell on him. Extricating himself as soon as possible, and throwing away his arms to lighten himself, he ran for about a quarter of a mile, when seeing a very large red skin approaching him directly in front with a pistol in one hand and a tomahawk in the other, he saw that escape was impossible and stopped. He said the Indian took him by the hair of the head and shook him till he almost thought he would shake his head off, telling him at the same time in good English you are a prisoner. He was taken back to the body of the Indians, among whom was a brother of the one killed by Starnater. This Indian was raving mad, and was determined to kill Baker in revenge for the death of his brother, but he was prevented from doing so by the chief. They came rapidly down this ridge where I live, no doubt thinking they would be pursued. They struck the river at Kate's Rock, where they found several canoes filled with Indians, who seemed to be waiting for them. From this point, after rowing a short distance down the river, they left the stream, and going back of the Grave creek flats they crossed the creek near where the water station now is and struck the river again at the lower end of the Round Bottom. Here they crossed the river and encamped for the night at the head of Captina Island. All this time he carried his own and Starnater's and the dead Indian's rifles strapped to his back. He was tied to a sapling and passed the night without food. They started early next morning and traveled three days and three nights without stopping to camp, or with scarcely anything to eat. At the end of this time they arrived at Chillicothe. Here, thinking they were out of danger of pursuit, they traveled more leisurely and killing some deer, they had plenty to eat. Arriving at Sandusky they found a band of at least three hundred warriors, and there were nine other men from Kentucky as prisoners. They were all compelled to run the gauntlet. My father being young and active ran it easily, which so enraged a young Indian that he knocked him down with his club after he had entered the house. He witnessed the burning of the nine Kentuckians, one being burned each day, all the time being warned that his fate was to be the same as theirs. On the tenth day he was ordered to be taken out and tied to the stake by an old Indian. He resisted somewhat, and tried to parley with them, but on starting out toward the stake he saw a horseman rapidly approaching. When the horseman came up he saw a man dressed in the uniform of a British officer. He immediately ran to the man. He told him that the Indians were about to burn him, and he wanted him to save him. He found out the man to be Simon Girty, who, on finding who Baker was and where he was from, plead with the Indians for two hours to spare his life, and finally succeeded. My father always supposed that Girty anticipated making an attack on Wheeling and expected him to be useful to him as a guide, for he took him aside and asked him all manner of questions concerning Wheeling and vicinity. Through the interposition of Girty he was sent to Detroit and reported to the Governor. He was then set at liberty. Hiring himself to an Indian trader, he remained with him some time trading with the Indians. At length he started with two others for Virginia, and after a tedious march, getting lost at one time for near three weeks, they arrived at the point where Bridgeport now stands. The inhabitants of Wheeling were some of them on that side of the river, making sugar and selling it. They supposed them to be Indians and fled to the fort and gave the alarm. Finally, when the inhabitants of the fort found out who they were, they welcomed them within its walls. Baker here found that during his absence his father had moved to the Round Bottom, whither he went, and when summer opened they all went to Fort Tomlinson. In the year 1784 my father built what was long known as Baker's station, near Cresap's grove. In the same year a family by the name of Parr settled in the Flats, and a short time thereafter Henry Baker married one of his daughters. After marriage he settled at Tomlinson's fort, and in the year 1786 his first son, John Baker, was born. (He was the father of Captain A.O. Baker, present clerk of the circuit court). He lived at the fort until Wayne's treaty in 1791, when he moved to Round Bottom, where he bought a tract of land at the lower end of the bottom, including also Captine Island. Here he lived and died. His oldest son, John, married Elizabeth, daughter of Jonathan Roberts.

DEATH OF CAPT. JOHN BAKER BY THE INDIANS
Captain John Baker, who located here in the early settlement of the country, was captain of a company of men fighting the Indians, and about 1787 met with his death. He was in company with the Wetzels, three in number, in a block house that had been erected at the head of Cresap's bottom. They were watching Indians who sauntered around on the opposite banks of the Ohio river, evidently waiting an opportunity to kill the whites that had taken refuge in the fort. Baker seizing the first chance fired and killed an Indian that was in range of his gun. The Indians pretending they were frightened, scattered and ran in different directions, leaving their bleeding and dying brother upon the ground. Baker seeing at once that his shot had proven fatal, and being somewhat daring, suggested to the Wetzels to cross the river and examine their dead foe. No Indians then, of course, were in sight--all tranquil and every appearance of safety. But the savages were using strategy. They had secreted themselves not far from their dead companion. He was left there for a bait, and Baker was thus decoyed. A canoe was secured and they crossed to the opposite bank to take a look at their dead victim. Whilst reconnoitering him, several shots from the Indians were unexpectedly fired, and one taking effect on Baker, who fell and was captured by the Indians. The Wetzels recovered the body shortly afterwards--they found he had crawled partially under a log, lying insensible, with both eyes gored out--and he was carried across the river on the canoe, only surviving but a short time after reaching the fort, or block-house. He was buried at that place. The following named persons attended the funeral: Henry Baker, the old Indian warrior, and family; Reuben Roberts, and family; George Baker, Leonard Raigor and two brothers; Aaron Hughes, and Capt. Roberts. There were three canoe loads went from the Round bottom to Baker's Station, where the block-house stood. Col. S. P. Baker and Capt. Roberts are the only two persons now living that attended on that occasion.

He was married to Elizabeth Adams Sullivan (daughter of Doctor Sullivan) in 1760 in Philadelphia, PA. Elizabeth Adams Sullivan was born on 14 FEB 1744 in Germany. She died on 22 MAY 1836 in Monroe Co, OH. She was buried in Steed Cem, Monroe Co, OH.
