My notes in ( ) on ZACKQUILL MORGAN. Do not know parents of Zackquill. He MAY very well be a descendant of Morgan Morgan of Exeter Twp, Berks Co, PA. per: www.dorseykiger.com/history/town.html Morgantown, WVa--history: Mentions: Fort Morgan- 1772 Fort Coburn 1770 Fort Dinwiddies - 1772 Fort Burris Fort Kerns in Greenmount area of Morgantown; as did other small forts thorughout the region. Mononalia Co, Va- Oct 11, 1776; 13 counties fromed from it including 3 Pa counties. ZAQUILL MORGAN- 1st settled in the area in 1772 & in 1785 received a charter from the Va Assembly for the establishmane of a town called MORGANTOWN-- present town is a direct result of that Va Charter. (Zaquill Morgan was Capt; served in Lord Dunsmore's War; discharged at Ft Pitt- listed on payroll list of 1775 Ft Pitt along with men who served under him-- 3 being Samuel, Richard & Thomas MARIFIELD--have an alpha list of 1775 Ft Pitt--listed also is John, William & Andrew ICE--all privates. Tree on rootsweb.com gives Zaquill Morgan b 1742 so he may well be the age of FREDERICK ICE or would Frederick Ice be older since 3 of his sons served with Zaquill?????). Forks of Cheat Bapt Ch- north of Stewartstown in 1775. Still used today- 1st church established west of the mountains of Va. Further towards the Cheat River - a settlement grew up and around a ferry established and operated by FREDERICK ICE in 1767. That same year-- Frederick's son ADAM was the first white child born in the Monongahela Valley. ICE'S FERRY was the first authorized ferry in western VA. George Washington crossed there in 1784. Persent bridge on Cheat Lake on WVA 73 marks the location of ICE'S FERRY. Maybe the History of Monongahela Co, Va will give more clues??? Or perhaps Frederick Co since Monongahela Co was formed from it. Mary Y.
