AREAS OF SETTLEMENT Since only a
very minor portion of Bath was covered by the early holdings of the pioneer families, it
is possible to group these holdings into several tolerably well defined areas of
settlement. The names we aportion among these areas are not presented as an exhaustive
list or as one that is free from error, even so far as it goes. The Dickenson
settlement may be considered as extending along the Cowpasture from the gorge below Fort
Lewis into the bend at Griffith's Knob, and as including the lower course of Stuart's
Creek and the occupied part of Porter's Mill Creek. The more conspicuous of the earlier
names associated with this belt are Abercrombie, Beard, Clendennin, Coffey, Crockett,
Daugherty, Dickenson, Donally, Douglass, Gay, Gillispie, Graham, Hicklin, Insminger,
Kelso, Kincaid, Laverty, Madison, Mayse, McCay, McClung, McDannald, Millroy, Mitchell,
Muldrock, O'Hara, Porter, Ramsey, Scott, Simpson, Sitlington, Sloan, Stuart, Thompson,
Waddell, Walker, Watson. The
Fort Lewis settlement began a little above the mouth of Thompson's Creek and extended up
the Cowpasture to Laurel Gap. Here we find the names, Benson, Black, Cartmill, Cowardin,
Dickey, Feamster, Francisco, Frame, Hall, Hughart, Jackson, Knox, Lewis, Mayse, McCreery,
Miller, Montgomery, Moody, Moore, Wallace. The
upper Cowpasture settlement included the bottoms on that river between Laurel Gap and the
mouth of Shaw's Fork and on the lower course of the latter stream. Here were the
Devericks, Erwin, Gwin, Johns, Shaw, and Steuart families. The
upper Mill Creek settlement occupied the basin of that stream above Panther Gap. Names
associated with this somewhat limited space are Bratton, McDonald, Putnam, Rhea,
Sweaington. The
Green Valley settlement embraced the upper basin of Stuart's Creek and is connected with
the following names: Bell, Crawford, Eddy, Hall, Hepler, Fitzpatrick, McCausland, Morrow,
and Warrick. Page 16
ANNALS OF BATH COUNTY crats of Tidewater and their names were enough to give prestige
to the enterprise. If, as
is probable, no settlers had appeared in the Bath area before 1743, this will explain why
the surveying did not begin in earnest until nearly two years had elapsed. September 26,
1745*, the Lewises appeared on the Cowpasture, just above Nimrod Hall, and surveyed 1080
acres for Adam Dickenson. This tract was the most northern in a chain of four. During the
next two days the others were run off for Alexander Millroy, John Donally, and Hugh
Coffey. The fourth day was Sunday, and after the manner of good Presbyterians the
surveyors reported no work. During the first half of the following week they were moving
northward, adding seven more links to the chain. These surveys were in favor of James
Waddell, Ralph Laverty, James Stuart, James McCay, John Mitchell, John Cartmill, and James
Hughart. Those of Stuart, McCay, and Mitchell were on Stuart's Creek. The last day
in March, 1746, the date falling on Monday, the surveyors returned to the Cowpasture, and
below Coffey they laid off parcels for Joseph Watson, Andrew Muldrock, and William
Daugherty. On the first of "April," they continued down the river to the
vicinity of Griffith Knob, surveying for John Walker, James Mayse, and Robert Crockett.
Meanwhile a detachment of the surveying party was at work far above, laying off selections
for James Scott, John McCreery, William Gillespie, William Lewis, James Jackson, James
Simpson, William Black, Robert Abercrombie, Thomas Gillespie, Thomas Fitzpatrick, Hugh
Edwards, William Warwick, and James Hall. The surveys already mentioned took in nearly all
the choice morsels of Cowpasture bottom that lie within the present limits of Bath and
also the more desirable land on Stuart's Creek. During
the last week in April the surveyors were busy on Jackson's River. Their largest tract was
for William Jackson. Immediately *According
to the Old Style Calendar, which was 11 days behind the true time. The correct date is
therefore October 7. The New Style calendar, was put into force in 1752. To correct the
error, 11 days were taken out of the September of that year. Until then, the English began
the new year with March 25. For example, all dates in 1746 coming prior to March 25 were
counted as belonging to 1745, but were often written as in this illustration: March 1,
1745-6. Page 17
DISCOVERY AND
SETTLEMENT
below was a second large tract for Adam Dickenson, who took a
third a little lower down. The lands of James Ewing, William Jameson, and Archibald
Elliott were still farther below. The
surveying continued at intervals until October 4. Meanwhile the Lewises did not fail to
look out for Number One. The Fort Lewis survey of 950 acres was run off September 5 in the
name of John Lewis. William Lewis took a tract immediately below Bullpasture Gap. Thomas
Lewis took two tracts on Jackson's River, at and just below the Highland line, and four on
Back Creek. Of the long list of surveys four remained for a while in the hands of the
syndicate. It is
not to be assumed that every given acreage, as put down in the suryevor's book, is very
close to the actual amount. The Lewises understood how to survey, but their work was done
too rapidly for precise results. The wilderness was broad and the methods they used were
slapdash. The length of a course was sometimes paced off or guessed at. An open line was
occasionally drawn. But it is significant that in nearly or quite every instance the true
area is found to overrun the surveyor's figure, sometimes to a very considerable extent.
The loose way in which the courses were often run appears in the frequency with which the
phrase, "containing by estimation," occurs in the deeds based on these surveys. In the
surveys not held until a purchaser should appear, the surveyor entered this clause in his
report: "Now in possession of
__________________." This does not necessarily imply that
the person named was already living on his land. Millroy, Coffey, and Daugherty are indeed
mentioned as having houses on their selections. The same was doubtless true of several
other settlers. But in some instances the expression means no more than that purchase had
been made. Several claimants lived on the Beverly or Borden grants, and not here.
Sometimes an actual settler would take a second and perhaps a third tract, possibly at a
considerable distance from his homestead. On
Jackson's River, and within the Bath area*, it is doubtful *By
"Bath area," we mean Bath County within its present lines, just as if these
limits had always existed. By "Greater Bath," whenever the term is used in this
book, we mean Bath as it stood from 1790 to 1822. Page 24
ANNALS OF BATH COUNTY read in the lists of patents for the remaining fragments of
river-bottom and the more desirable tracts of upland. Much of this later patenting went to
the enlargement of the original estates. These later surveys may be classed as culls. Many
of them were not made into new farms and their history is of far less interest than that
of the primary surveys. We therefore
append to this chapter a list and description of these primary surveys. Where we find
conveyances of title during the first 50 years of settlement, we include in the record all
but the least important of these transactions. Yet here and there an item is missing which
we have not been able to find. In a few other instances there is an element of
uncertainty. Now and then an entry seems not to have found its way into the record books. The
holdings under the Lewis grant constituted the key to the early history of the upper basin
of the James. The lands esteemed choice by the settlers cover only one-twentieth of this
area. This fraction was taken up by men of enterprise and resource; men capable of
carrying on a plantation rather than a common farm. Now and then a settler dropped out of
the race, usually because of Indian raids or financial embarrassment. Other men, feeling
cramped by the narrow valleys, or impelled by sheer restlessness, moved at length to the
Carolina uplands or into the smooth country of the Mississippi Valley. If the pioneer did
not himself migrate, his son or his grandson was quite certain to do so. If his surname
has not utterly disappeared during the seventeen decades of settlement, the outflow has in
most instances been of such volume as to leave behind only a small representation of his
posterity. Since
Greater Bath covered nearly all the upper valley of the James, we have thought it best to
include the Lewis surveys in Highland and Alleghany. Beginning
with the most eastern of the sources of the Bullpasture, that valley, as far down as the
Lockridge neighborhood, was parcelled off into the surveys claimed by Elliot, De la
Morttony, syndicate (224 acres), Armstrong (112), Carlile (204), McCreery (208), Holman,
Largent, syndicate (175), Harper, Miller (250), Bodkin, Estill, Carlile (304), Carlile
(284), and Lewis (348). On the
Cowpasture, immediately above the mouth of the Bullpasture, was Black. Just above him was
Knox (254) and across the Page 26
ANNALS OF BATH COUNTY It
would seem as though most of the settlers were either unable or unwilling to pay for their
lands, or that they wished to worry the Lewis syndicate into granting patents for a
nominal consideration. At any rate, many suits were brought against them by Robinson and
Lewis between 1747 and 1752. The defendants in these suits include an undue proportion of
the leading men of the settlements. The suit of
Mays v. Lewis, 1746, throws considerable light on the early settlement of Bath. Joseph
Mayse states that he agreed to purchase of John Lewis 500 acres in one or more blocks.
Lewis was to survey at his own cost, and give perfect title in fee simple whenever so
required. Mayse was to pay three pounds per 100 acres and paid down two pounds. A 200-acre
tract was laid off on the Cowpasture and Lewis promised to lay off the other 300 acres
when asked to do so. Mayse paid the surveyor one pistole ($3.61) and decided to take the
other 300 acres on Jackson's River, adjoining William Wilson. James Trimble, alias
Turnbull, there ran off for him 234 acres. In the fall Mayse built a cabin on it, paid 40
shillings, and always stood ready to pay the residue in cash, but Lewis demanded a bond,
which Mayse refused to give, as he expected interest would be required. Mayse understands that Lewis has sold
the 234 acres to a stranger. In his
reply, Lewis states that the bargaining was in June, 1746. Mayse lives on the Cowpasture
survey. Lewis denies that Mayse paid him 40 shillings or any smaller sum on the same, but
adits that Mayse let him have a tweed hat and some other trifles, which he understands
were not to apply on the purchase. Lewis says Mayse never paid 40 shillings on the
Jackson's River land, but on the contrary owed him 43 shillings, which he could not get
till he threatened suit. Mayse had money in the hands of John Brown. The latter made over
to Lewis a doubloon, out of which Lewis paid to himself the 43 shillings and was ready to
pay Mayse what was left. He confessed selling the 234 acres and being paid in cash ,for
it. He gave Mayse notice to settle and either pay down or give bond for the purchase money
for both tracts, the bond to bear interest from the end of August, 1747. Mayse flatly
refused to do either and demanded a patent in his own name. Lewis declares he has always
been ready to give deed or patent for the 200-acre tract, provided Mayse took 500 acres in
all, either paying in specie or giving his bond. In his rejoinder, Mayse reaffirms his
previous statement. Page 27
THE LEWIS LAND GRANT
In
McCreery v. Justice, we find this memorandum by James Trimble, dated August 7, 1750:
"Surveyed for Wm. Warrick 224 Acres in Newfound Land between Saml De La Matonye &
Carlile.'' Thomas Lewis says John McCreery paid him $6.54 for the surveying, which was
done for Warrick. In 1749 a charge of $10.75 was added to the foregoing. John Justice gave
bond to pay McCreery $22.50 "for my right of a piece in the bull paster," also
the purchase money to John Lewis, and the charges for the surveying and the
"patton." The
name of the person for whom the tract was surveyed is mentioned first. Then follow, in
regular succession, the acreage, the location, the date of patent, and finally the
conveyances, if any, which ensued. When no name immediately follows the year of patent, it
is to be understood that the patent was issued in the name of the person for whom the
survey was made. Otherwise, the name of the new owner is mentioned. A star following the
acreage--as 100*--means that the survey was in 1745. All other surveys were in 1746. ,The

AREAS OF SETTLEMENT
The
Bullpasture settlement stretched along the entire course of that stream from its source
nearly to the Bullpasture Gap. Here the names are Beathe, Black, Bodkin, Bradshaw,
Burnside, Carlile, Curry, Davis, Duffield, Erwin, Estill, Ferguson, Graham, Harper,
Hempenstall, Hicklin, Hiner, Hynes, Jones, Justice, Lockridge, Malcom, McCoy, Peebles,
Pullin, Siron, Summers, Wiley. Adjacent to
the Bullpasture valley, and just within the Bath line, is the Red Holes, or Burnsville,
settlement. The earlier name is derived either from the reddish loam exposed to view in
the sinkholes, or from the artificial licks, made by driving stakes into the ground,
withdrawing them, and then filling the holes with salt. Here David Frame patented a tract
that nominally covered 1150 acres. But when sold in 1792 to Elisha Williams, John Burns,
and James and Daniel Monroe, the lines proved so elastic as to include 1363 acres. The bottoms
on Jackson's River are less continuous than those of the Cowpasture. The
"pockets" in which they occur were mainly gathered into a few large surveys. The
northernmost of these pockets begins beyond the Highland line and may be called the Wilson
settlement. The names found here are Bratton, Cleek, Given. Gwin, McFarland, Wilson. For
several miles below the Wilson settlement Jackson's River is closely confined between
lofty hills. Then comes the Fort Dinwiddie settlement, comprising two very long surveys by
William Jackson and Adam Dickenson. Here are the names Bourland, Byrd, Cameron, Davis,
Dean, Jackson, McClintic. A short
distance east of the Wilson settlement is Little Valley, where the early names are
Carpenter, McAvoy, and Pritt. Beginning
below the Fort Dinwiddie settlement, reaching nearly to Covington, and extending up the
valley of Cedar Creek was the Fort Mann settlement, where these names occur: Armstrong,
Bolar, Elliot, Kincaid, Kirk, Mann, McGuffin, Montgomery, Morris, Robinson, Walker. Around
and just below Covington was the Fort Young settlement, occupied by the Carpenters,
Mallows, Seelys, and Wrights. On
Great Back Creek, stretching some distance above and below the mouth of Little Back Creek,
was the Vance or Mountain Grove settlement where lived the Baxters, Gregorys, Hamiltons,
Kellys, and Vances. Page 64
ANNALS OF BATH COUNTY self at $13.33, and it would have taken two of his cows to pay
for it. James Burnside was charged $10 for
three beaver hats. William Jackson lived on the verge of settlement, yet he wore a wig and a stock and buckle. In presenting a bill of $1003.52 against his
father's estate, John Dickenson mentions broadcloth at $3 a yard, and calico at 75 cents.
A pair of silver knee buckles is listed at $3.33, a lawn handkerchief at $1.25, a silk
bonnet at $11.33, a set of silver breeches buttons at $3.33, and a pair of men's stockings
at 83 cents. There was a tailor's bill in favor of James Stuart of $7.67. And Adam
Dickenson was the founder of the settlement on the lower Cowpasture. Robert Armstrong was
a hunter, but wore silver buckles. The statute of Andrew Lewis, at Richmond, represents
that general as attired in hunting shirt and leggings. Such was not his ordinary apparel,
for he is known to have been particular in the matter of dress. His brother, Charles, was
equally particular and left a brown suit inventoried at $50. The
person acquiring 100 or more acres in the Augusta colony was usually a yeoman, his class
constituting the backbone of British society. Of the very much smaller class known as
gentlemen, there were very few among the Augustans, although a prominent man would be
given that title by courtesy. The gentleman, according to the aristocratic meaning of the
word, was a man who claimed that his ancestors had never been serfs. He had a coat of arms
and could wear a sword. In
deeds and other documents it was customary, if the grantor or grantee were a yeoman, to
state the fact, or to name his occupation. This was a means of defining his social
standing. Bound white servants were numerous in Augusta. Some of these were orphans or of
illegitimate parentage. In the early days of the colony they were chiefly young persons
brought from Europe under indenture. To pay their passage across the Atlantic they were
sold into servitude for the average term of five years. At the end of this time the
servant became free. But while his servitude continued, he was virtually a slave. If he
ran away and was retaken he was made to serve his master an extra period, the length of
which was proportioned to the cost of recovery. Some of the servants made as good citizens
as any other people. Some others had a record as petty criminal, or were of loose moral
character. If, as frequently occurred, the woman Page 65
LIFE IN THE PIONEER DAYS
servant had bastard children by another man than her master, her
term of servitude was lengthened. But immoral behavior was not confined to the servant
class. Until after
the Indian war of 1754, negro slaves were very scarce in Augusta. White male adults were enrolled in militia companies, of which
the commissioned officers were captains, lieutenants, and ensigns. But the frontiersmen
were little amenable to restraint, and only the officer with a strong inborn power of
leadership could control his men. The day of general muster was the fourth Tuesday in
September. There was a company muster every three months. The
"processioning" of lands was a colonial custom. It began in 1751 and was to be
repeated every four years. It consisted in remarking the corners of the surveys, and was
done by men appointed for that purpose by the vestry. The purpose was to keep the lines
from being lost sight of, and to prevent unlawful hunting and ranging. In 1755, James
Hughart processioned in John Dickenson's militia company of the Cowpasture, and Stephen
Wilson and Joseph Carpenter in Jeremiah Seely's company on Jackson's River. The following
document is dated October 12, 1765: "As
it has pleased your Worships to send an order to nominate Four Persons in the Cow Pasture
to mark the lines of the Several plantations there, we the subscribers hereof have gone
from the Forks at Jackson's River upward to Joseph Mayse, and Thomas Feamster and William
Black from there to the head of the waters. There is many places that there is no livers
in and others that doth not know their lines. The names of such as have f'd their lines
are as follows.
James McCay
James Scott." McCay
and Scott marked for themselves and for William Gillespie, John Handley, William McMurray,
James Beard, John Dickenson, James Hamilton, Ralph Laverty, John Cartmill, James Hughart,
Robert Stuart. Charles Donally, and Thomas Gillespie. Feamster and Black marked for
themselves and James Mayse, John McCreery, James Knox, James Shaw, George Lewis, James
Clements, Hugh Hicklin, Charles Lewis, John Kinkead, Robert Hall, Boude Estill, William
Jackson, and James Bodkin. About 1768, Samuel Hamilton marked for the following men be- Page 86
ANNALS OF BATH COUNTY doubtless several other persons belonging to the Bath area. One
of the restored girls was reared by Captain Dickenson, and she became the wife of James
MeClung. As in several other similar instances her real name was never learned. The
following letter of the Indian period is the earliest we know of to be written in Bath. It
seems to have been addressed to Thomas Lewis.
Jackson's River, May
ye l5th, 1755.
Dear Brother,
I have been stopping here several days in purchasing of provisions. I have
purchased as much grain as will serve three months, but will have a great deal of
deficiency in getting of meat. I propose to march in ye Narrows towards Greenbrier. I
think I shall go to Marlings (now Marlinton, W. Va.) in two days, where I purpose to
construct a small fort. I hope you will be so kind as to remind Mr. Jones (Gabriel Jones,
King's Attorney of Augusta County) to bring pay for my company from Colonel Wood as often
as he has an opportunity, which he promised to do. I have nothing that
is new to acquaint you of.
I am, dear brother, your most affectionate and very humble
servant,

This comes to let you know that I am in good health at Present blessed be God for it hoping these will find you and
your Family in the same Condition, for tho' we have been long absent from each other, yet
neither Time nor distance of Place can remove the Brotherly Affection I have for you. As
for my Situation in this Country I live on a Branch of the Mississippi Waters, which is a
very fertile Land but it is not yet Purchased from the Indians. I enjoy a reasonable
Living; but have been long in a dangerous situation from the incursions of the Savages,
yet thro the Protection of God have hitherto Escaped, and had I the comfort of you to
Converse with shou'd think myself Happy: But I dare not advise to come to this Country,
Yet were I in Ireland and had such a Family as you have and cou'd foresee it no other way,
I wou'd bind myself & them before I wou'd stay to be so Oppressed, but you have no
Occasion, for if you are unable to pay your Passage, come upon Redemption to Pennsylvania
and Brother William will soon relieve you, and as soon as I have an Opportunity I will
repay it him. I had
the Comfort of hearing of your welfare by Brother William which gave me great Satisfaction
and likewise I heard of Brother Thomas. I have
no Child which makes me the more Desirous to have you hear, my Wife Joins in our Love to
you and Family and Sister Elizabeth and her Family and to all old Friends, which is al

sources from the Latter Day Saints computer records show Partrica, and another as Patsy. Numerous records show Patsy's maiden name as McDaniel, others
show McDonald. She was born in Fayette County
Kentucky. According to the deeds and wills in
Fayette County her maiden name was McDonald. Her
Father was Henry McDonald and her Mother was Sarah Hodges, According the DAR index printed
in 1966. Deed Book 10 Page 55. Thomas
and Patsy Carmill form Bath County sold to John McNab of Morgan County Ky., land
bequeathed to them from Henry McDonald in Fayette County Ky. 12 Apr. 1834. Will book D Page 3, 25 Apr 1834. Henry McDonald, Sarah, his wife Children: See Family Page for
Henry McDonald and Sarah McDonald. Email from Cousin Paula from W. VA. Daniel, Made a very quick trip to the Fayette County Courthouse today.
Couldn't put my husband through too much. I got a little bit of information.
But I could probably spend at least two days and nights in there. I found the estate settlement of Elijah Cartmell 23 MAR 1832. His
children sold 217 acres for $5425.00 to Asa and John Cartmell. Now whether
Asa and John were two of his children and the others sold out to them
remains to be seen. Sounds like quite a plantation for five grand. Fayette County Deed Book 8 Page 409 His children are listed as: 1. Sally Kenney and Robert P. Kenney 2. Polly Bryan and Lewis Bryan 3. Ann Gay Gray? and James Gay, Jr. (was written both ways Gay
and Gray) 4. Margaret Bryan and Joseph Bryan 5. Elizabeth Brown and George W. Brown Also there was a mention of Jessamine County. Didn't have time to
make copies will do that next time. Deed Book 10 Page 55 Thomas and Patsy Cartmill from Bath County sold to John McNab of
Morgan County, land bequeathed to them from Henry McDonald in Fayette
County. 12 APR 1834 Will Book D Page 3 25 APR 1816 Henry McDonald Sarah, his wife Children: 1. Sally Sanders 2. Polly Martin 3. Betsy Knox 4. William McDonald 5. Patsy Cartmill 6. Henry McDonald 7. Ann Cartmill 8. Jane Hicklin 9. John McDonald 10.Eliza McDonald 11.Margaret McDonald 12.Rebecca McDonald If he actually signed this will, he spelled his name McDonnell.
But someone else could have signed for him. In the actual body of the will
the children were listed as McDonald. Several plantantions around him were
named. One that sticks in my mind is Bullock Plantation. His will was witnessed
by Samuel McDonald and James McDonald. Deed Book 8 Page 22 shows some of his heirs selling 100 acres in
Fayette County. The heirs are: 1. George Sanders and Sally, wife 2. Jane Hicklin 3. Hicklin McNab? and Rebecca, Wife 4. John McNab and Martha represent the interest of Henry McDonald 5. Thomas Cartmill and Patsy, his wife 6. Betsy Knox All of Morgan County, Indiana Now if you're descended from Robert Cartmill, here's the deal. I
found on 13 JAN 1840 the adminitrators of the estate of John Cartmill
emancipated Robert alias Robert Cartmill. You make the call. Obviously our line was not in Fayette. I'm going to try Clark
next. Winchester is closer anywhoo.The only mention was of Thomas
selling that property. No David, no William, no Andrew. Just none of them. Of
course I know these are uncles but the rest of the bunch has to be close. For the short time I was in the Courthouse, I guess I did
alright. At least my McDonald McDaniel question is answered. Give me some feedback. Cuz, Paula Marriage Notes for THOMAS CARTMELL and PATSY MCDONALD: Info taken from LDS records in their computer.

He married ELENOR (ANNA) ANDERSON December 01, 1836. Notes for THOMAS CARTMELL: Died 1860, age 45 of dyspepsia, sick 3 years. Ref: Vital
Statistics before the 1860 Census came out. As
reported by the doctor. From encyclopedia:Symptoms of gastric diseases include upper
midabdominal pain, bloating, nausea, or vomiting. These
are also symptoms of stomach cancer, one of the leading killers worldwide, although less
common in the United States. If caught early, treatment involves removing the cancerous
portion of the stomach. Motility disorders of the stomach have recently been recognized as
a common cause of INDIGESTION, known as dyspepsia. The
stomach also produces intrinsic factor, a protein necessary for the absorption of vitamin
B12. In pernicious ANEMIA , degeneration of
the gastric lining causes the loss of intrinsic factor, resulting in vitamin B12
deficiency. According to the Mayo Clinic: He may have died from gastric
cancer, gall bladder, or peptic ulcers. Believe
he may have died from gastric Cancer, due largely to the fact that my mother (Doris Maxine
Daniels Gallagher)died from stomach cancer in in 1979.
May be a hereditary factor. Input: James Daniel Gallagher, Feb. 08, 1997. More About THOMAS CARTMELL: Cause of Death: Dyspepsia Medical Information: After 3 years of suffering. See Notes. More About THOMAS CARTMELL and ELENOR ANDERSON: Marriage: December 01, 1836
