Purvines, Stuart Hoye. The Purviance Family: A Genealogy with Allied Families. Privately Printed, 1986.

John Henry Purviance, son of Samuel and Catherine Purviance, never married. He was well educated (presumbaly in the schools of Europe since no record has been found as to his attending schools in America) and was employed as early as 1794 as secretary and interpreter for the State Department, accompanying James Monroe to France.

That he was associated with the State Department from that time until his death is fairly obvious. Just exactly what this association was, however, is not always clear. While many of his papers, and a number of diaries are maintained in the Purviance Papers by the manuscript department, Duke University, there are not sufficient documents to cover the entire period. That he was a close intimate of many in the foreign service is made clear and he traveled extensively to and from the continent on various missions. There are several memoranda in his handwriting of interviews with Monroe and representative of the French government concerning treaties with the United States as it related to France and to Spain; and negotiations for keeping the Mississippi open to American shipping. A number of Monroe's rough drafts of speeches or letters remain in the collection. Some mystery surround some of the documents. In 1796, at Monroe's request, he compiled a series of memoranda explaining the difficulty in obtaining cash for a draft for $120,000 sent to Monroe by the U.S. Treasury. While not specifically stated, it would appear that the money was to be paid to Napolean's brother.

There is correspondence addressed to him from Fowler Skipworth, the American Consul-General at Paris. During 1801 and 1802 he was back in the United States but was exerting every effort to again be sent abroad, apparently for his health. He solicited the support of a number of influential friends in this regard and the State Department records disclose a petition signed by many such in his behalf. He succeeded in this and served as Secretary of Legation in London from 1804 to 1810. There is on file a considerable amount of correspondence between he and Monroe during this period. There are also four letters addressed to him by the American painter, John

Nothing is known of this girl except that she married in Pennsylvania to a Mr SNODGRASS and that she had a son, Benjamin, There was also a reference to the 'famous' Mr Snodgrass, but the references were never clear as to whether they applied to the father or to the son.

Mary married John Snodgrass on 12 Jan 1776 in Dauphin County, Pennsylvania.

Children from this marriage were:

   118 M    i. Benjamin Snodgrass .

43. Charles Purviance was born about 1742 in Pennsylvania.

General Notes: REFN: 423

Very little is available on this son at this time. We know that he was born in Pennsylvania and came to North Carolina with the rest of the family. A few court records place him there between ,1767 and 1775. Family history relates that he had moved his family to the frontier and he and most of the family were killed by the Indians.

There was a William Purvine whose descendants relate the following story regarding their William's father: "One morning while Mr Purvine and the older children were doing the chores, the wife heard an unusual noise, and, upon looking outside, saw that her husband and children were surrounded and being attacked by indians. She snatched up her baby boy who was in the house with her and fled to a nearby settlement and safety. Her husband and five older children were all killed and her home burned."
This William is here placed as the remaining son of Charles. For the benefit of other researchers, it should be stated that William is placed here as that sole survivor, solely because the above story has been carried through the descendants although they never related their progenitor as being Charles. The story of Charles was carried through other lines of the family and William was the only boy not properly placed as a descendant of one of the other lines. This William was raised in the homes of his uncles and the only records and associations we have been able to locate have been with those people. He came to Illinois, settling near his cousin, John.

Charles married (name unknown).

Children from this marriage were:

+ 119 M    i. William (Purvine) Purviance was born about 1770 in Near, Chattanooga, Tennessee, died about 1832 in Morgan County, Illinois, about age 62, and was buried in Near, Jacksonville, Illinois.

44. James Purviance 1 was born in 1743 in , , PA and died on 13 Sep 1813 in , Fayette Co., PA, at age 70. Ancestral File Number: 19K5-X5X.

General Notes: REFN: 422

He was born after his father's death and it is believed that his mother died giving birth to him. Being an orphan he was raised by a Quaker family. Upon gaining his majority, he became a Quaker himself.

It should be pointed out that the parentage of this James, as shown here, will vary from records and traditions which can be located, including the marriage record. That marriage record specifically states that James is the son of James Purviance. Such documentation is hard to refute, but we do so, based upon (1) Samuel (Book V, Section 2) on his visits into N.C., brought information to David and the others in N.C. of the other relatives and those in N.C. were well aware of James1 sons during the years in which they were being born; (2) no James, who could be the father of this particular James, has ever been located; and (3), the following statement copied from the Bible of John Puryi-r ance (1790-1857) , the son of David Purviance and grandson of John Purviance (Book IV, Section 4) reads:

"Our great-grandfather by our father was John I'urvlance, His wife's name was Margaret McKnight. My grandfather was John, was married to Jane Wasson. His oldest brother's name was David, a Presbyterian Minister. He never married. He was about to be married and on a Saturday night visited his intended and was to preach the next clay and was found dead in bed. Our grand-uncles names were James and Moses was a half-brother. Our grandfather had several cousins, William, Samuel and James. He also had a full cousin by the name of David Purvians and James brothers. James was born after his father's death. James was raised by a Quaker and became a Quaker. He had 10 sons."

The above definition leaves no doubt as to which James the writer was discussing.

In 1806 he bought land in Preble Co., OH and in 1807 organized a Campbelite Church with some 20-25 members, most of them having been members of the Cane Ridge, KY church, and most of them related to him.

From his Biography, written by himself: (the book exceeds 120 pages, here are some of the first few)

"Elder David Purviance was born in Iredell Co., NC on the 14th day of Nov. 1766. The county was then new, and the opportunity for schooling not so good as desirable, but he was sent early to school, and made great progress in learning considering the ignorance and tyranny of the teachers of that age. His parents took great pains to have him well instructed in the principles and doctrines of the Presbyterian Church. He memorized all the Larger and Shorter Catechisms while very young. He was also well instructed in the good and wholesome moral precepts, contained in the discipline of that church, particularly the observance of the Sabbath day, which he was careful to reverence an respect as long as he lived.

"When about twelve years of age he was placed in a seminary under the care of Dr. Hall a Presbyterian preacher, for the purpose of studying the Latin and Greek languages, and those sciences necessary to a preparation for the ministry. He prosecuted his studies with indefatigable industry; and made great proficiency in learning, considering his opportunity. It was during the Revolutionary War, and he was the oldest son and very frequently he was detained from school, to assist the family in procuring a living, while his father was defending the injured rights of his country, and towards the close of the war he was sometimes sent an express for the army; but when opportunity offered, he prosecuted his studies for several years, until finally his health failed in consequence (it was thought) of too close and intense application to his books. He reluctantly left the school, and afterwards regained his health, and engaged in teaching, and taught Latin and Greek, and the common branches of literature. "He afterwards wrote for some time in the Clerk's Office in Salisbury, NC.

"When he was about 23 years of age, he married to Mary Ireland, daughter of John and Marta Ireland, in the year 1789. Her father was a native of Ireland, and her mother of Irish descent. "After his marriage his father settled him on a farm, on the south fork of the Yadkin river. There he commenced farming; but only continued about two years before many of his friends and relatives moves, some to Kentucky and some to Tennessee.

"They continued there but a short time, before they found themselves unpleasantly situated. They were surrounded by the savages, engaged in stealing horses, burning houses and murdering the inhabitants, and after the Indians slew his younger brother, John Purviance, he and his wive visited her father's family, and some near relatives, who had lately made a settlement on Caneridge, Bourbon Co., KY-they were much pleased with the appearance and situation of the county, and through the solicitations of friends, and finding that they would not be so much exposed to the depredations of the Indians. They were induced to leave TN, and in the fall of 1792, they emigrated to KY, and settled near his friends in Bourbon County."

General Notes: In 1771, while living in North Carolina, John married Mary (Polly) Mitchell, who was born in 1751 in North Carolina. Sometime during the Revolutionary War, he joined the North Carolina Monongalia Militia and helped in the battle for freedom. As a result, he received a land grant as a North Carolina private for one of the parcels of land recited in his will (included), and there are two pay vouchers to him in the North Carolina Archives at Raleigh, North Carolina, one for services against the Chickamauga Indians. However, even at this early date the provinces of the seacoast states were looked upon as too crowded to promise very rapid prosperity to the poorer immigrants. So, after the close of the Revolutionary war, we find that the subject of our sketch settled on the waters of Paint Lick Creek, in what was called Madison County, Virginia, which later became Kentucky (and still later, Garrard County, Kentucky). At the time of their immigration to Madison County, they were the parents of a number of children.
The date of this move is thought to be 1789. (Note: In Stuart H. Purvines book "The Purviance Family", mention is made that from 1780-83 John claimed land in Sullivan County, Tennessee, and presumably lived there during that time. However, probably due to Indian uprisings, he moved his family to North Carolina, settling for a period near his cousins in Mecklenberg County. In 1788 he bought 640 acres on Station Camp Creek, Sumner County, Tennessee, although there is no record of his having ever returned to Tennessee to live.)

Presbyterian congregations soon sprang up in various settlements, among them in Madison County, both at Silver Creek, organized in 1780, and Paint Lick, organized in 1783. Among the pioneer families settling in this neighborhood we find the names of Thomas Maxwell, Samuel Woods, Alexander Mackey, James and Robert Henderson, John Cochran, John Young, Robert Dickey, and the brothers, John and Andrew Provine.

It seems that for a while the family of John Provine affiliated with the congregation at Silver Creek, as the Minutes of the Transylvania Presbytery for Oct. 1790 shows that he was appointed as a representative from the Silver Creek congregation to gather funds for the support of missionaries in the settlements. But later, it is possible that he was reckoned as connected with Paint Lick, as tradition has it that at the time of his death he was one of the ruling elders of that congregation, and its probability is added to inasmuch as he was buried at the Paint Lick graveyard rather than at Silver Creek.

John Provine had accumulated some property before coming to Madison County, since at the time of his death (three years after coming to Madison County) he was able to direct in his will the disposition of quite an amount of possessions for pioneer days. His will (which is annexed to this sketch) shows him at the time of his death in possession of the plantation on which he lived, which was well stocked and improved for the times, together with land possessions on the Harpeth and Duck rivers in central Tennessee, and on Station Camp Creek in Cumberland. The Creek was a tributary of the Cumberland River, now within the county of Sumner, Tennessee.

The noblest legacy that he left his children was, however, his Christian character. His youngest son, Rev. John Provine, who died in Wilson County, Tennessee, 1855, thus pictures the death scene of the pious man:

"Though it occurred many years ago, and I was quite young, yet I distinctly remember the scene of my father's death, how he talked to the family about religion. When the elders of the church came to bid him a last farewell, he solemnly gave his family in charge to them, bidding them visit the fatherless and widow, and to see to it that his children were trained up in the fear of the Lord. The children were three sons and four daughters, and I, being the youngest son, as was the custom of the church then, was set apart for the ministry. I remember to have heard my father, in his last counsel given my mother, say to her, 'You must try and educate our son John for the ministry.' The impression on my mind was as lasting as my years."

The death of John Provine on February 28, 1792, when he was but 41, was an untimely one, being the result of injuries sustained by the kick of a vicious horse. He was a comparatively young man, but as indicated above, time was given him to "set his house in order" both as to temporal and spiritual things. His remains were laid in the newly opened cemetery near Paint Lick Church, where under a sward of waving bluegrass and marked by two well-preserved stones with inscribed dates, his body waits the dawn of the Resurrection Morn. (Neighborhood tradition says his was the first grave in the new burial ground.) In addition to the stone with the date of his death, is a stone, inscribed "John Provine- Revolutionary Soldier - North Carolina Monongalia Militia". This stone was placed there in 1956, but we don't know by whom.

John Provine left a widow and seven children, aged from 1 month to 19 years, all unmarried.

John married Mary Polly Mitchell in 1771 in Mecklenberg County, North Carolina. Mary was born in 1751 in Mecklenburg, North Carolina, died on 31 Aug 1813 in Jefferson, Kentucky, at age 62, and was buried in Clarke County, Indiana.

General Notes: BIOGRAPHY: In the summer of 1779, during the Revolutionary War, he volunteered for 13 months as a horseman under Captain James Wade, attached to a Regiment commanded by Colonel Davis. They marched across the Congaree, Wateree and Santee Rivers into South Carolina where the militia of North Carolina was assembling under General Rutherford of that state. The Regiment took part in the severe conflict with the British at Stono Ferry. S.C.. on July 20 1779, under General Lincoln. Soon afterward, the army retreated to the northward.

BIOGRAPHY: In August, 1780. he again volunteered as a Private Horseman under Captain William Penny, attached to the army of young General Gates at Lynch's Creek, marching two miles beyond Rugby's Mill toward Camden and was in a fight with the enemy which probably occurred Dec 4, 1780. He was present at the capture of the fort at Orangeburg, S.C., in May, 1781. and he served in the rear guard for two days and nights, after which he was detailed with four others, including the Quartermaster Sergeant, to a mill to procure meal. While there, they were surrounded by a detachment of Tories. He was the only one who evaded capture which he managed to do by jumping from a window into the river and swimming away.

General Notes: Elder David Purviance, brother of Anna Purviance Woods, was a ruling Elder of the Cane Ridge Presbyterian Church of Cane Ridge, KY when in 1803 Barton Stone decided to secede from the Presbyterian Church.

In 1806 he bought land in Preble Co., OH and in 1807 organized a Campbelite Church with some 20-25 members, most of them having been members of the Cane Ridge, KY church, and most of them related to him.

From his Biography, written by himself: (the book exceeds 120 pages, here are some of the first few)

"Elder David Purviance was born in Iredell Co., NC on the 14th day of Nov. 1766. The county was then new, and the opportunity for schooling not so good as desirable, but he was sent early to school, and made great progress in learning considering the ignorance and tyranny of the teachers of that age. His parents took great pains to have him well instructed in the principles and doctrines of the Presbyterian Church. He memorized all the Larger and Shorter Catechisms while very young. He was also well instructed in the good and wholesome moral precepts, contained in the discipline of that church, particularly the observance of the Sabbath day, which he was careful to reverence an respect as long as he lived.

"When about twelve years of age he was placed in a seminary under the care of Dr. Hall a Presbyterian preacher, for the purpose of studying the Latin and Greek languages, and those sciences necessary to a preparation for the ministry. He prosecuted his studies with indefatigable industry; and made great proficiency in learning, considering his opportunity. It was during the Revolutionary War, and he was the oldest son and very frequently he was detained from school, to assist the family in procuring a living, while his father was defending the injured rights of his country, and towards the close of the war he was sometimes sent an express for the army; but when opportunity offered, he prosecuted his studies for several years, until finally his health failed in consequence (it was thought) of too close and intense application to his books. He reluctantly left the school, and afterwards regained his health, and engaged in teaching, and taught Latin and Greek, and the common branches of literature. "He afterwards wrote for some time in the Clerk's Office in Salisbury, NC.

"When he was about 23 years of age, he married to Mary Ireland, daughter of John and Marta Ireland, in the year 1789. Her father was a native of Ireland, and her mother of Irish descent. "After his marriage his father settled him on a farm, on the south fork of the Yadkin river. There he commenced farming; but only continued about two years before many of his friends and relatives moves, some to Kentucky and some to Tennessee.

"They continued there but a short time, before they found themselves unpleasantly situated. They were surrounded by the savages, engaged in stealing horses, burning houses and murdering the inhabitants, and after the Indians slew his younger brother, John Purviance, he and his wive visited her father's family, and some near relatives, who had lately made a settlement on Caneridge, Bourbon Co., KY-they were much pleased with the appearance and situation of the county, and through the solicitations of friends, and finding that they would not be so much exposed to the depredations of the Indians. They were induced to leave TN, and in the fall of 1792, they emigrated to KY, and settled near his friends in Bourbon County."

General Notes: REFN: 20051

He and Margaret moved to Sagamon Co. Illinois, arriving in 1819, being among the "snow birds" who struggled hard for existance in the early years. The mills were so far away that they had to mash their own corn and lived among the Indians for neighbors.

He was a man of strong character and pronounced views, always ready to defend the honor of his beliefs. At the time of the Mormon trouble at Nauvoo, he took a load of men and started for that place, although, having no gun himself. Those who were armed started to the front and he took a neck yoke from his wagon and started to do battle with it.

Deer and wild game helped furnish the meat for their larder. Their market was St. Louis to which place they hauled wheat and sold it for twenty-five cents a bushel and sold dressed hogs for $ 1.25 per hundred, making the trip in ox carts.

Mr. Purviance was a man of energy and determination and at the time of his death was one of the extensive landowners of the county. He saw the wild praries and heavy timber lands converted to the home of the farmer. He helped build the Richland Baptist Church and was an earnest Christian. His Latch-string was always left out and the train of families moving westward who passed his way found a stopping place and a chance to rest at his home.

Three more children were born in Illinois and Margaret died in January 1831. On Oct 13, 1831 he married Jane Hamilton, whose maiden name was COLEMAN, the widow of George Knox HAMILTON and the mother of three children.

Alexander and Jane raised thirteen children in addition the fifteen of his, hers and theirs. In 1852, Alexander's younger brother, Samuel, 1800 - 1852, and his wife, Mary Irwin Purvines, 1805-1852, died within a month of each other. They had eight children, the eldest had been married but a short time to Jane's eldest son, Frank. The other seven, age 7 to 19, were taken in by Alexander and Jane. In the year that Samuel died, Alexander's eldest daughter, Elizabeth P. Bone, died in childbirth. She left a six year old child who was also added to the family. On April 9, 1861, Jane's son, George Knox Hamilton, lost his wife, Nancy. Alexander took him and his five young children into the family. On July 16, 1861, Alexander, himself died; one of George's children died in 1862; and George, himself, passed way on March 31, 1863, leaving his four orphaned children to be raised by their grandmother, Jane. All thirteen of these children were considered part of Alexander and Jane's family, in fact, the grandchildren always referred to Sam and Mary's eight, as aunts and uncles. The family always referred to Alex and Jane as having had 28 children.

Alexander died of injuries he recieved when he was thrown from his wagon. He hd been to the mill at Old Salem, was on his way home, when the team was frightened at the sudden appearence of a man stepping from behind a bush as the wagon approached the river.

General Notes: From all sources, she was a most remarkable woman and greatly loved by the entire community with her praises being sung by neighbors and grandchildren. Her descendants and neighbors referred to her as "Aunt Jane" and as 'that grand old pioneer of Richland Creek'. She was well described by her granddaughter and namesake, Jane Bone: Grandmother Purvines was our idea of a typical pioneer in Illinois. She came to the State when Illinois was but a little over a year old — Sagamon didn't even exist then. When she was seventeen she married and helped her husband clear and plant the fields as she had her widowed mother in previous years. She not only helped add rooms to the house, work in the fields, milk the cows, feed the chickens, and keep up a large garden, but she also raised a very large family, besides her own eleven, she helped in the raising of sixteen or seventeen others.

Her Latch-string was always out and there was seldom a serious illness or birth in the neighborhood that she wasn't there helping. Her neighbors all sang her praises. Her grandchildren loved her. She had a very keen sense of humor and an understanding of human nature which was remarkable. She was unusually tolerant for her day and for a Hard-Shell Baptist. In spite of her hard work and her large family, it was said that she was a graceful moving, soft-spoken woman. I, myself, recall her as tall, straight woman who walked with graceful, erect carriage. She was feminine in almost every sense but there were two characteristics which were paradoxical of this femininity. She worked longer hours than most men and often as hard, an least in her later years when I remember her. she loved to smoke a corncob pipe."

The subject of this sketch was born in Jefferson county, Ohio, in 1823, and removed to Illinois in 1847, locating in Hennepin. He learned the printing trade when young, but after coming to this State worked at farming, teaching school winters.

In 1845 he married Mary M. Ong, their union being blessed with two children, Retta and Frank O., both born in Putnam County. Is a member of the Independent Order of Odd Fellows; was elected Sheriff in 1854, and County Clerk in 1857, which office he has since held. His place, known as "Hartzella", covers the site of the old trading house erected in 1817. It is a natural grove of twenty-two acres, beautifully situated on the bank of the Illinois River, one mile above Hennepin, and contains specimens of every native tree in Northern Illinois.

Amos T. Purviance was born near Smithfield, Jefferson county, Ohio, March 6, 1823. At the age of 16 years, he entered the office of the Steubenville Herald. Soon after learning the printer's trade, in connection with a cousin who was an attorney, he purchased the paper which they published for about a year and on selling out he came west.
Previously Mr. Purviance was married Aug. 7, 1843, in Jefferson county, Ohio, to Miss Mary Ong. They came to Putnam county in the spring of 1847 and located on a farm and for seven years, he devoted himself to farming. In September 1853, he moved to Hennepin, where he clerked in E.F. Pulsifer's dry goods store, and in 1854 was elected sheriff of Putnam County, in which office he served for two years, and the following year was a member of the dry goods firm of Grable, Cowles & Purviance. In 1857 he was first elected County Clerk and was repeatedly re-elected until he had filled the office for 41 consecutive years. Aug. 7, 1895, Mr. Purviance and his estimable wife celebrated their golden wedding.
His whole life, socially and politically, was singularly pure and lofty. He joined the I.O.O.F. lodge meeting, Oct. 14, 1853, and has been a stalwart supporter of that body up to time of his death. Funeral services were conducted at the home Sunday afternoon at two o'clock, conducted by Rev. W.L. Douglas, and followed by services the cemetery by the I.O.O.F. lodge, which were very impressive. Truly, one of Putnam county's able men has left us. The family are very grateful to all who kindly assisted them in the care and burial of their beloved father. Those present from abroad were Robt. Pettibone of Chicago, Hon A.W. Hopkins of Granville, John Swaney, Amos Wilson, Abel and Perry Mills, Judges Mills and McNabb, John Sutherland and wife of Magnolia and a large number of brother Odd Fellows from Henry, Granville and Bureau.
