Hi all, I had mentioned some information I got from my Futch line about the Baron. I am not sure if it will help, but here goes: The Futch line after years of religious persecution by the rulers of their native lands, thousands of Palatine Germans fled to England in1708. When Queen Anne, whose husbnad was Geman, issued a proclamation promising them land there. The living conditions were less tha satisfactory and the allotment of land was slow in coming. At this Christophle De Graffenreid and Lewis Mitchell of Bern, Switzerland, contracted with the Lord Proprietors of Carolina for 10,000k acres of land, lying between Neuse and Cape Fear. De Graffenreid forthwith contracted with the commissioners of England to transport and settle 100 Palatine families on the land, allotting to each 200 acres of land. De Graffenreid received the title of Baron. In 1709, ninety two families from Heidelberg Germany and it's environs arived on the Carolina Shores. They named thier settlement New Bern, after Bern, Switzerland, the home of De Graffenried. Although title to the land was promised to the Plaatines, it was once more postponed. Lewis Mitchell was killed by Indians, and Baron De Graffenreid, in great financial difficulty, returned to Switzerland without bestowing these titles. Instead he mortgaged the land to Thomas Pollock. Baron De Graffenreid, anxious to start another Colony, soon returned to America. This time he entered the Chesapeake Bay and explored the Potomac River to a point above the Great Falls. The Potomac River now formas the border between Pennsylvania and Virginia. Despite his enthusiasom no Colony was founded. His travels produced a journal and a map, drwn in 1711, that are valubalbe early records of the history of the area. On a French version of his map in 1716 De Graffenreid noted Sugar Loaf Mountain, which he possibly named, located in what is now Montgomery Co., Maryland. It is transcribed there is "Mont de Sugarloaf". In 1716 Baron De Graffenreid wrote, " I beleive that ther are scarley any places in the world more beautiful and better situated than this of the Potomac...there is a very pretty island (today's Theodore Roosevelt Island) of very good ground, facing it, and angle between the great Potomac River and another little river named Gold Creek (now Rock Creek)...sutied to recieve everything that comes up the river, the greatest merchant vessels being able to sail there as well as that which comes down from above the falls or from the surrounding country. Meanwhile, the controversy over the lands of the Palatines at New Bern, North Carolina continued. After several unsuccessful petitions to the court, opposed by Pollock, finally in may of 1742 the Palatines successfully petitioned the council at New Bern to take up title to 400 acres per family. To prove their rights to the land they cited their agreemant with Baron De Graffenried, and Mitchell, on one hand and appointees of Queen Anne, on the other, in raltion to their bing transported to this province and settled there. It goes on to tell how the Member of my Futch line got his land. I thought that the above may come in handy. I, by no means am good at geography. So, to tell you the truth, I am not sure exactly what area they are talking about. I know some people on the list are looking for poss. where they started from. Anyway, Hope it help. Sincerely, Lori

Hi Matt, How about the spouses for each of the men? They count too. Thanks. Sue in CA

Elijah never married so he had no children or descendants. He lived in Wayne County. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- John received lands from his father in forks of Beaverdam Creek, Duplin County. John, Abraham and William received land grants from the government. Cotton, tobacco and other farm products were raised. It is recorded that tar and turpentine were products which were sold. Many of George's descendants owned numerous slaves which they willed to their heirs. Several mentioned certain pieces of furniture, and how much livestock and money each child would receive after all debts and a "decent burial" was provided. Widows were given provisions for life with instructions for plantations to go to the oldest son. Younger sons got other lands. For the most part, daughters were given items such as feather beds, cows and calves and perhaps a maid slave. The sons usually received a horse and saddle in addition to land. One Kornegay willed his Bible to one son and his dictionary to another. All acknowledged belief in God and committed their souls to His care. N. C.

George was born in Germany and came to America in 1710 by way of England as a child. In 1711, at nine years old, he was the sole survivor in his family of a massacre by the Tuscarora Indians. He was captured by the Indians along with young George Koonce, also about nine years old and the sole survivor of his Swiss family. They were freed by militiamen a few months later. In August of 1713, the court at New Bern bound them out to Jacob Miller, a Swiss schoolmaster and justice of the peace at New Bern, who raised them with the requirement that they be taught to read and write, to take care of them until age 21, and to have them learn a carpenter's trade. Twenty other orphans were bound to foster homes after the Indian massacre. Both Georges grew up and became landowners in North Carolina. The settlers justly regarded the 250 acres allotted to each family as their own, although De Graffenried had mortgaged their lands to Colonel Pollack. In 1733, Colonel Pollack's son came into possession of his father's property and ordered the eviction of the colonists in the dead of winter. Upon being petitioned, the Crown mercifully came to their rescue and issued a land grant to each settler. George Kornegay was among those Palatines who appealed successfully to the English Crown for land grants to replace those which were lost by foreclosure. In 1739, a land grant of 640 acres was recorded being on the North side of Trent River in Craven County. In 1749, Duplin County was organized. Later, Jones County was organized in this area and land transactions and will of descendants of George are found there. George was a member of Duplin Foot Militia in 1754-1755. He had nine sons and one daughter. By the time of his death at age 85, George was owner of a large tobacco plantation in Duplin County, N.C. (his section of North Carolina is still a leading tobacco growing region) and large tracts in other counties. He owned several thousands of acres in Craven, Dobbs (present day Wayne and Lenoir Counties), Duplin and Jones Counties. He owned land in Dobbs County on Falling Creek and Duplin County on Beaverdam and Cape Fear. He is probably buried at the Kornegay old burying ground on his land at Kornegay's bridge near Alum Springs on the Northeast Cape Fear River in Duplin County. His memorial stone is now at Red Hill in Wayne County. George's will was probated in 1773 in Craven County (page 205). _____________________________________________________________________ You don't need to buy Internet access to use free Internet e-mail.

The first Kornegays in America waded ashore in March of 1710, naked and shivering. Less than two years later, all of them were slaughtered by Indians with the exception of one small boy. They were not debtors, indentured servants, or peasants, they were cultured, deeply religious people, driven from their homes by religious persecution. The Kornegays (originally spelled Knege, also Kornegee, Kenergy, Kornage, Keregy, and Korneghka) were from the upper Palatine area of southwest Germany which includes the wine regions of the Rhine and Moselle valleys and the Black Forest. By 1709, this region had been wrecked by wars fueled by religious differences. The armies of Louis XIV were the latest to plunder the Palatines and his victories meant trouble for Protestants like the Kornegays. Queen Anne of England invited some of the Protestants to England to be settled there. The Kornegays were among the 20,000 homeless refugees. At this time, Baron Christopher de Graffenried of Switzerland had acquired a large grant of land, 25000 acres between the Neuse and Trent rivers in the Carolinas, for the purpose of starting a settlement. He chose about 100 families from the Palatines on condition that he provide them with land for homesteads (250 acres per family) on his Carolina tract within three months after arrival. The Baron was to follow with a ship load of Swiss mechanics and artisans which would populate a town named after Bern, Switzerland surrounded by farmlands tilled by the Palatines. In January, 1710, about 600 Palatines set sail in mild weather from England for Carolina. The John George Kornegay, his wife and children were among the chosen. The Palatines had a bad crossing. They were soon overtaken by such terrible storms that the voyage lasted thirteen weeks. More than half of them died during the winter voyage across the Atlantic and many more after landing from poor nutrition. Their ships carried them off course to the mouth of the James River in Virginia. Here one of the two vessels was robbed by a boarding party from one of Louis XIV's warships. Everything was taken including the ship's rowboats and the clothes from the passengers. The people of Jamestown were startled to see naked people wading ashore but they were kind to the "poor Palatines" and provided them with food, clothing and shelter. After a few weeks, they set out over land to find the Neuse River, stopping first at a site that would later be called New Bern. They took with them their Bibles, hymn books, catechisms, and long guns. It was from the long guns, originated and made exclusively in the Rhineland region and brought over by the Swiss and Palatine settlers, that the famous Kentucky long rifles were evolved. When they arrived, they found that their land had not been cleared of its Indian title as de Graffenried had supposedly arranged, and the Tuscarora were in no hurry to vacate. In September, de Graffenried arrived finding the Palatines living in the greatest poverty, selling their limited assets to neighboring people in order to live. A late crop was planted. Yellow fever from the swamps ravaged the colonists and took its toll in lives. Surveyor General Lawson laid out plans for the town to be named New Bern in the form of a cross with the center reserved for the building of a church. After the foreclosure of Colonel Thomas Pollock's mortgage on the settler's land, the town did not get built according to the original plan. At dawn on September 22, 1711, without warning, when their first full crop was ready for harvesting, the Tuscarora swooped down on the Palatines killing dozens of families. Sixty English and more than sixty Germans and Swiss were killed. The Kornegay family, with the exception of nine year old George, was wiped out. The Tuscaroras, related to the Iroquois, lived in north Carolina, where they maintained friendly relations with the colonists. According to the natives, trouble began when the white settlers began to take advantage of the Tuscaroras, encroaching on their farmland, cheating them in trades, and in some cases kidnapping and selling their children into slavery. In retaliation, Tuscarora warriors, under Chief Hancock, raided white villages in 1711. The Tuscarora War quickly escalated. In a final standoff, Colonel James Moore led his men, aided by Yamasee Indians, into the Tuscarora village of Neoheroka in 1713, killing and capturing one thousand inhabitants. Many were then sold into slavery to finance the war effort. The surviving Tuscaroras migrated to New York, where in 1722 they became the sixth nation in the Iroquois League. A drawing by Christopher von Graffenreid, founder of the Kornegay's Swiss-German colony in North Carolina, shows he and his slave being held captive by the Tuscaroras during the conflict. Women and children were captured as prisoners with booty. So terrible was the decimation and suffering of the people that the date of the massacre was set apart by the General Assembly as a day of humiliation and prayer and was observed in North Carolina for more than 25 years. De Graffenreid returned to Europe in 1713. He was beset by many difficulties and became bitter. He abused the colonists as having caused their own disasters, being "thieves, lewd fellows, profane, slanderers" and suggested that the Almighty punished them by means of the heathen, for they were worse than these. He was upon leaving "more sorry to leave such a beautiful and good country than such wicked people." The Palatines retorted that he "carried off from our Settlements all that he could come at." De Graffenried failed to supply the colonists with the livestock, tools, implements and other things required of him in the contract. But their great and bitter grievance against him was that he never gave them the titles to their lands, which he had mortgaged to Colonel Pollock. _____________________________________________________________________ You don't need to buy Internet access to use free Internet e-mail.

Sue, There is no name for the cemetery Roxie Laney Kornegay Ward is buried in. It's just a family plot which contains maybe a half dozen graves on the farm that John and Roxie settled on in 1798. The area is called Ward's Hollow and, though it was part of Smith Co. TN when they arrived and throughout their lifetimes, it has since become a part of a later developed county, Trousdale. Although Roxie is buried there, having died in 1812, John later migrated to Phillips Co., Arkansas with three of his children. The remainder either stayed behind (being grown) or had deceased. Most of the very primitive tombstones in the little cemetery were illegible. Matt Ward

As I said yesterday, I'm doing some experiments in the PERL programming language and this is my first attempt at a chat window. Don't be intimidated by the fact that it says "JV 2010 Chat brought to you by the Joint Warfighting Center", it's hosted on that server but it isn't a published link. We can use it for tonight at least. Actually, I'll be curious to see how many can sign on and what will happen. This will be my "testbed" before I clean it up and publish it for the Joint Warfighting Center. Jerry
