Surnames: Chadwell, Middleton, Cloud Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/2NI.2ACEB/118.1 Message Board Post: From the Chadwell book, I found the following: Walter Middleton, Sr. was the first husband of Mary (Polly) Chadwell, daughter of David and Elizabeth Turner Chadwell. There was a Middleton Station in Lee County and Walter, Sr. is spoken of in Kincaid's "Wilderness Road." as follows: "There were 3 small companies of militia stationed on the road under the authorization of the Federal Government." One company was commanded by Lt. Walter Middleton on Turkey Creek. "They patroled the road from Crab Orchard to Cumberland Gap. This was the spring of 1792." Polly Chadwell Middleton was only 18 when their son, Walter Middleton, Jr was born in 1795. By 1801, Walter Middleton had died of wounds received in the Revolutionary War and Polly married Benjamin Cloud. Mary Polly Chadwell Middleton was a sister to my 3rd-great grandfather William Chadwell.
