    Land Purchase in Greenup County Kentucky

    According to Biggs (1951), Captain Moses Fugua sold his property in Virginia and a bought a "trace of land of more than thirteen hundred acres along the Ohio River between Mt. Zion and Tygart Creek. Today this is So Shore, Greenup County, Kentucky. Moses brought his large family and many slaves from Campbell County, Virginia, and settled there. Judith Woodson Fugua [his wife] never came to Kentucky as she died before they left Virginia."

    Fuqua Family Migrates to Ohio, published 1877

    Ironton, Ohio, Thursday, March 1, 1877
    Lawrence County, Ohio

    EARLY SETTLEMENT
    "The following is an extract from a sketch of early days across the river, showing the first settlement in Greenup County:

    Captain Moses FUQUA, an officer of the Revolutionary War, with seven or eight children, sons, and daughters, and sons-in-law named Josiah MORTON, W. DUPUY and John MACKOY, from the counties of Campbell and Charlotte, Virginia, each with young families and a few slaves, left the Old Dominion in the latter part of the eighteenth century, in search of a western home. It was, no light undertaking for these pioneer fathers and mothers with their young children, to attempt the crossing of the rugged mountain, where the trace existed. Yet they persevered in their journey.

    After leaving Campbell county they passed through Bedford county, near the Peaks of Otter, and then over the Blue Ridge and on to the Alleghenies. Upon reaching the summit of some of these mountains it was sometimes difficult to determine how to descend, the incline being too great to use
    the ordinary method of locking the wagon wheels. The plan as described by them was to cut down trees with bushy tops and fasten them to the foot of the mountain. Thus thy continued westwardly by way of the White Sulphur
    Springs and the Kanawha Valley.

    These families all finally reached the Ohio Valley and located in Greenup county, Kentucky, thirty miles below the Big Sandy river, in the large bottom where Tygart Creek empties into the Ohio river, and extending up and down the river for some nine or ten miles. Each of the party
    purchased several hundred acres, and, although in a dense forest, they soon erected log cabins and cleared up ground to raise corn and the necessaries of life."

    Family/Spouse: Judith Woodson. Judith (daughter of Obediah Woodson and Constance Watkins) was born on 23 Mar 1743 in , Prince Edward, Virginia, USA; died on 16 Feb 1803 in , Greenup, Kentucky, USA. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

    Notes:

    There were 2 churches that arose out of the Bedford Baptist Church(then called Little Otter Church), the Suck Spring and Timber Ridge churches. Isham Fuqua was the pastor of the Little Otter Church and ministered to these two congregations after they were formed. His Father, Joseph Fuqua, and another man, John Hewitt, were the first deacons of the Timber Ridge church which began its meetings in a one room log cabin on land purchased from William Lowry. Fuqua and Hewitt took named ownership of the property. The one room church was replaced in the 1820's by a larger building and Isham was replaced by Reverend William Leftwich.

    On July 3, 1969, BEDFORD BULETIN-DEMOCRAT published a "Believed List of County Men in Revolution," which apparently contained the name of Isham Fuqua.
    Isham Fuqua moved to Davidson County, Tennessee, in about 1805. His son, Nathan Fuqua, married Mille Carter in 1812 in Tennessee and died about 1852 in Monroe County, Mississippi. As a result of his service in the War of 1812, he was granted land near Aberdeen, Mississippi. Joshua Fuqua is listed in the Tract Book of Original Entries of Land in Monroe County, Mississippi, as purchasing land on 4 July 1836.

    Isham Fuqua was a Baptist minister of Bedford Co., Virginia. On 27 June 1796, he was given permission to perform marriage ceremonies, and many of his relatives were married by him, including his eldest son, the Rev. Peter Fuqua. Isham Fuqua had a family of nine children, two daughters and seven sons. Six of the seven sons also because Baptist ministers, as well as several of his grandsons.
    On September 25, 1804, John Otey sold to the "trustees of the Baptist Church lately convened in Liberty in the county of Bedford under the care of Isham Fuqua, their pastor, to wit: James Bramblet, John Hancock, Joseph Fuqua, and John Otey, for $15.00, one and one-half acres adjoining the town of Liberty, for the purpose of building a Baptist Meeting house on." This transaction can be found in Bedford Co., Va. Deed Book K11, on pages 1071 and 1072.
    The house was built of brick and was used as a church, called "Little Otter" until 1850 when it was sold and converted into a residence. In 1850, the turstees of Little Otter Church - Armistead Otey, Benjamin H. Mansfield, Abner Fuqua, Abraham Fuqua, and Adam J. Boyer - purchased from the estate of James Meyse, for $290, the lot on Main Street where the present church stands. At that time, the name was changed to Liberty Baptist Church. In 1901, the name of the town was changed to Bedford, and the name of the church then became Bedford Baptist Church.
    In 1805, Isham Fuqua organized Suck Spring and Timber Ridge Baptist Churches in Bedford Co., Virginia, and apparently migrated shortly after that time - or at least by 1810 - to Davidson Co., Tennessee, near Nashville. He was accompanied by most of his children. Isham Fuqua apparently died before the 1820 census, since the census lists only his wife and two children at that time.

    Isham married Mary Hammons on 27 Jan 1777 in , Pittsylvania, Virginia, USA. Mary was born in 1755 in , Goochland, Virginia, USA; died on 3 Feb 1840 in , Davidson, Tennessee, USA. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

    The settler who gave the town of Liberty his land, and Texas his sons. Born on May 4, 1756 and dying May 4 seventy-three years later, Joseph Fuqua led a generally quiet life as a farmer and family man. He is remembered in Bedford today for an outstanding act of generosity he shared with another man who went on to obscurity. Joseph Fuqua and William Downing donated the 100 acres that became the site of the town established in 1782 as Liberty. He had fought in the Revolutionary War before settling in this area, enlisting Feb.22, 1776 and fighting in the battles of Cowpens and Brandywine. He was discharged in 1778. His father Ralph Fuqua had also been a Revolutionary War soldier. In 1782, the same year he donated the land for Liberty, he married the former Celia Bondurant, and they had six sons and five daughters, most of whom eventually moved to Texas.

    The Fuqua's were Baptist (Joseph Fuqua was the first deacon at Lowry Meeting House, now Timber Ridge Baptist Church). The family was renowned for its hospitality. The cemetery off Orange Street in Bedford, where Joseph Fuqua is buried, was uncovered a few years ago by Mrs. R. N. Krebs, who was curator of the Bedford City/County Museum. When it was found Joseph's will provided the cemetery should never be sold , the company that had purchased it, deeded the site to the city, which maintains it today. Joseph Fuqua is also appreciated in Texas, where so many of his descendants settled. A grandson of his, 16-year old Galba Fuqua, was the youngest soldier to die at the battle of the Alamo.

    Coincidentally, another one of Joseph's descendants was instrumental in providing one of Bedford's best - known landmarks. Fred Fuqua of Lynchburg, Virginia, a direct descendant of Joseph's son Abraham Fuqua, who stayed in Bedford County, was the contractor who built the present courthouse in 1930. It was Fred Fuqua who formally presented the Fuqua Cemetery to the city in the dedication ceremony, that took place in 1975.

    Notes:

    From: http://www.tamu.edu/ccbn/dewitt/oldgonzales18.htm#fuqua
    Benjamin Fuqua first joined the Austin Colony in 1828, but moved to the DeWitt Colony in 1830where he received a quarter league of land as a single man on the San Marcos River north of Gonzales just inside current Guadalupe County. The following letter from Richard Ellis in Alabama recommended the Fuquas to Stephen F. Austin:
    "State of Alabama, Town of Tuscumbia 3rd Jany. 1828 D COLO I beg leave to introduce to your aquantence and notice Mr Silus, Ephram and Benjmn Fuqua and Mr Job Ingram and Kye Ingram, these Gentlemen have emigrated to your Coloney to become permanent settlers---The Mr Fuquas are Mechanics. two of them of the best kind; they are honest and respectable men and are determined to suport the Government to which they go, I have had much conversation with Mr Silus Fuqua, on the present and future prospects of your coloney; and tho he has never seen it, he has a most corect idea of its great advantages, you will find him an inteligent man and I have no doubt will be an acquisition to your Setlement, I have known these gentlemen twelve years, the Mr Ingrams I have not known personaly but from their universal good character and the Gentlemen they go with, I feel no hesitation to recomend them to your attention...........RICHARD ELLIS."
    Benjamin was a representative from the Austin Municipality and a signer of the Declaration of the People of Texas declaring the intention of Texans to fight for the restoration of the Constitution of 1824 and support of a separate state of Texas within the Republic of Mexico. He was a mechanic (artisan) and mercantile businessman and was said to have owned the structure in inner Gonzales town called Luna which has been suggested as possibly one of the Grog Shops alluded to in David Edwards History of Texas. It may simply have been Benjamin Fuqua's general business establishment. Luna was on property deeded to Benjamin's brother Silas Fuqua who was a neighbor of John King. Benjamin Fuqua married King's oldest daughter Nancy. Benjamin Fuqua's nephew, Galba Fuqua and nephew by marriage, William King (Nancy King Fuqua's brother), were members of the Gonzales Relief Force to the Alamo and both died there in Mar 1836.

    Silas Fuqua was born to a prominent family of French Huguenots in Virginia. He and several of his brothers migrated to Alabama when it was still a territory. He first appears on tax lists there in 1810 and patented land in 1812 and 1819 in Madison County near Huntsville. He married Sally Young in 1814.
    Genealogists have listed Sally's name as Sally Taney based on information from a Fuqua family Bible. However, I believe this is a mistranscription of the name. There are no Taneys listed in either Bedford County, Virginia, where the Fuquas originated, nor in Madison County, Alabama where Silas is recorded as having married.There are however, numerous Toneys listed in both counties including the husband of her grandmother Celia Bondurant Fuqua's sister. Since the wedding certificate for Silas and Sally lists her name as Sally Young, she was either a 17 year old widow when she married Silas or her maiden name was Young and Toney was her middle name.

    Sally died in 1825, the same year that Silas and his brother Benjamin bought land in northwestern Alabama in what is now Colbert County. By 1828, he and Benjamin who was unmarried, and Silas's children journeyed north to join the Tennessee-Texas Land Company and then traveled in a group to Texas. They settled first in the Austin Colony but moved two years later to the DeWitt Colony where they both received large land grants. Unfortunately, Silas died shortly after and is believed buried in the Fuqua Family Cemetery though his gravestone and location have been lost.

    Benjamin Fuqua first joined the Austin Colony in 1828, but moved to the DeWitt Colony in 1830 where he received a quarter league of land as a single man on the San Marcos River north of Gonzales just inside current Guadalupe County.

    The following letter from Richard Ellis in Alabama recommended the Fuquas to Stephen F. Austin:

    State of Alabama, Town of Tuscumbia 3rd Jany. 1828 D COLO I beg leave to introduce to your aquantence and notice Mr Silus, Ephram and Benjmn Fuqua and Mr Job Ingram and Kye Ingram, these Gentlemen have emigrated to your Coloney to become permanent settlers---The Mr Fuquas are Mechanics. two of them of the best kind; they are honest and respectable men and are determined to suport the Government to which they go, I have had much conversation with Mr Silus Fuqua, on the present and future prospects of your coloney; and tho he has never seen it, he has a most corect idea of its great advantages, you will find him an inteligent man and I have no doubt will be an acquisition to your Setlement, I have known these gentlemen twelve years, the Mr Ingrams I have not known personaly but from their universal good character and the Gentlemen they go with, I feel no hesitation to recomend them to your attention...........RICHARD ELLIS.

    Benjamin was a representative from the Austin Municipality and a signer of the Declaration of the People of Texas declaring the intention of Texans to fight for the restoration of the Constitution of 1824 and support of a separate state of Texas within the Republic of Mexico. He was a mechanic (artisan) and mercantile businessman and was said to have owned the structure in inner Gonzales town called Luna which has been suggested as possibly one of the Grog Shops alluded to in David Edwards History of Texas. It may simply have been Benjamin Fuqua's general business establishment. Luna was on property deeded to Benjamin's brother Silas Fuqua who was a neighbor of John King. Benjamin Fuqua married King's oldest daughter Nancy. Benjamin Fuqua's nephew, Galba Fuqua and nephew by marriage, William King (Nancy King Fuqua's brother), were members of the Gonzales Relief Force to the Alamo and both died there in Mar 1836.

    Benjamin married Nancy Gladden King on 12 Jul 1834 in Gonzales, Gonzales, Texas, USA. Nancy was born on 19 Jan 1818 in , , Tennessee, USA; died on 27 Sep 1888 in Gonzales, Gonzales, Texas, USA. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
