I sent a request for the cost of two records and they will cost $129.00 plus $7.45 in shipping costs. What could I expect to find different from the bare bone report on the site? Will this be a copy of a copy from the real records in 1813 and 1839? I am looking for Brookes & Hord CR-SC-H , 1813 and Hord & Hamilton &c CR-LC-H,1839. That is a tidy sum to invest. Louisville, KY

In answer to the question: >I am searching for records of a family attending Blue Run Baptist Church (or at least I think that is the name) located on Rt. 15 >close to the Orange County line. The records would date from 1918. Does anyone know if services are still held at the church, >and who might have records from that time period? Thank you. I have a few comments: I am aware of a Blue Run Baptist Church that was in Orange County and perhaps still is. My 3-gr-grandfather was active in Blue Run Baptist Church. My data base says the following: >Thomas was converted and baptized in his 16th year. (This would have put the date as circa 1813) Afterward by change of >residence, he became a member of Blue Run Church, then under the pastoral charge of John Goss, where he was called to the >office of deacon, which he used so well that he was soon formally licensed to preach the gospel. Returning to the home of his >childhood, he united with other brethern in 1816 in organizing Forest Hill Church, Louisa. Here he was ordained to the full work >of the ministry, and here he retained his membership to the day of his departure from the earth. Thomas's son, my 2-gr-grandfather, Edward Pinkard Hawkins is said to have been baptized at Blue Run Baptist Church when he was 17 which would have put the date as circa 1746. My data base says: >E.P. was baptized when he was about 17 years old--according to an article in The Virginia Baptist Ministers by George Braxton >Taylor. I made a copy of the article while in the Alderman Library at UVA fall 1999.--by Rev. E.G. Hipp, at the Blue Run >Church, Orange County. His school days were at a private academy ânear J.B. Newtonâs between Blue Run CHurch and Orange >Court House. ... In a small brochure available from the Zion Baptist Church in Orange County, I found the following information: > ....Baptist have been organizing. Until 1734, when Orange County was settled with the Baptist organizing Blue Run in 1759, North Pamunkey in 1774, Zoar in 1805 and Zion on October 30, 1813. Please keep any discussion of this church on the mail list. I am very interested in any more information that is available about this church. marsha in WV
I thought I'd pass on the following from an article published 1874 that mentions the Blue Run Baptist Church and Baptists during the Revolutionary War in the Orange/Culpeper area. This is from a biography about Baptist minister William Davis. He was born 1765 in Orange Co, VA, but in his boyhood his family moved to Culpeper Co. Rev. Davis, his parents Jonathan and Lucy Gibbs Davis, his wife Nancy Eastin and their families moved about 1790 to Wilkes/Elbert Co, GA. A number of Culpeper Co. families moved to Elbert Co, GA, about the same time, and it appears quite a few were Baptists. Rev. Davis' wife Nancy was a Quaker, his brother John married Nancy's sister, a Quaker, and other Culpeper-to-Wilkes/Elbert GA Baptists seem to have prior Quaker connections. I'd be interested in hearing if anyone has information on other Baptists or Quakers in Culpeper in this time period. --jh "This excellent man and useful minister was a native of Orange county, Virginia, where he was born January 7th, 1765. His parents were poor, but honest and respectable, and were members of the Episcopal church. He became concerned about his soul at the early age of nine years. Two sermons which he heard about this time, (one by an Episcopalian, the other by a Presbyterian,) made a deep impression upon his mind. The Baptists, then called "New-Lights," commenced preaching in his native county about the same time. Much was said against them, as those who were "turning the world upside down," which raised much anxiety in the mind of young Davis to hear them. The first opportunity of the kind he enjoyed was to hear an exhortation and prayer from one John Bledsoe. This served to deepen his religious impressions, and frequently at that tender age he was known to go forward voluntarily and ask the ministers to pray for him. He continued serious, by turns, until in his fourteenth year, a conversation he had with a pious negro in his father's employment, (a Baptist,) fully awakened him to a sense of his lost condition as a sinner. For some six months, his mind was in great distress. "During those days of darkness, he went far and near, by day and by night, as far as lay in his power, to hear the gospel from the Baptist preachers, who were itinerating through the country. One night he went some four miles from his father's residence to attend a meeting held by Elijah Craig. During the services, his feelings became such as to unnerve him; he swooned away, and remained in a helpless state for some time. In this condition, the Lord brought deliverance to his soul. He rose rejoicing, and began at once to exhort his fellow-mortals to flee from the wrath to come. At this time his parents resided in Culpeper county, and were opposers and persecutors of the Baptists. William left the parental roof, rather unceremoniously perhaps, walked some fourteen or fifteen miles to a Baptist church in Orange county, called Blue Run, where he was immersed in his fifteenth year."

Hi Doc, Do you have an Ellen E. Hord in your family? My Ellen was my gggrandmother who was born about 1819 in the Culpeper/Orange Counties area of VA. At least that is where I think she was from, she married William J. Palmer in Orange County inm 1835. He was from "near Culpepper County Virginia" as stated on his tombstone. I can find nothing on them before 1835. They moved to Giles County, TN at some point before 1872 when that portion of Giles Co. was placed in Marshall Co. They are buried in Beechwood Cemetery in Cornersville, TN. I will appreciate any help I can find.

Dear WKM, I am a descendant of two Clark families in VA. They were said to call each other "cousin" but I could never find a connection. It may have been an honorific. One in a Clark family was the aunt of William and George Rogers Clark. The other lived near by them. Louisville, KY seemed to be full of Clark descendants of the Rogers-Clark clan.

Cornelius Clark, son of Richard Clark and Mary Miller, had a daughter Mary Polly Clark born in Lewis County 1829. Cornelius Clark was born in PA. Cornelius married twice. At one time a John Clark from Canada (visitor)was listing with him on a Census. My Clarks were in New England, went to Canada and had land in 1823. My great grandmother, Rachel Clark, was born in Dunwich, Canada in 1827 and came to KY 1854.(Spouse: William Peter Jones). Her parents John Clark and Ruth Hamilton)came from Nova Scotia. Richard Clark was the son of William Clark and Dorothy Stonehouse. Dorothy died in England and William and family came on the Jenny to NS. Richard married a widow James in NS. So far I can not connect the Clarks in VA with the New England/Canada Family. The names carry through in Lewis County. Elijah, Wiliam P, George, Mary Polly, Eliza, Richard, John H, Simon and in second famiy William Henry, Louverra, Eliza J, Benjamin, Sarah Frances, Cornealious F, Thomas, Perry David, Serena Francis. I know a William and John Clark from New England received land from Col. Talbot(Canada) and it mentions "services rendered", plus the cost was three barley corns. There also were Clarks from MA. on the "List" of Loyalty to England........ Several Elijah Clarks were in Canada. My great grandmother's brother (Elijah). My grandfather was Richard Mann Jones. John Clark and Ruth Hamilton in Canada also had a William Henry and my Rachel Clark and William Peter Jones had a William Henry. Hate to mention that Wilhite/Wilhoits/Stapp/Slaughters/Hord are also in the family.
Have been working mainly with Fauquier Co.. Hoping Culpeper Co. folks can help break my brick wall. Think I have finally found g.g. grandfather's family. We think that George W. McConchie was probably son William b. 1833 of Alexander and Catherine McConchie.The birth year matches perfect and there is no other Alex. McConchie that could be his father that we know of. 1850 Census Ashby District, Household #647 Alexander McConchie age 58 Catherine age 38 Eliza age 19 (she was married to Alexander Willingham but listed as McConchie on this census--error.) William age 17 (Believe this William to be George W. McConchie who married Mary J. Bray, Dec. 25th 1853. Witnesses: Silas H. Newhouse and Alex. McConchie.) Robert age 16 (he married Mary C. Brown, 30 May 1861) John ? (he married 1st wife Bettie P. Freeman, 8 Nov. 1866, 2nd wife: Kate P. Taylor, 24 March 1887) James ? (James Henry married Martha Brown, 13 April 1869) James Henry reported Alexander's death at age 87 when died in 1878. Mary ? "Margaret"? (married Elijah F. Groves, 6 Sept. 1868. Also on census: Alexander Wooleyham/Willingham! Eliza's husband age 26 James A. Wooleyham/Willingham! 6/12 Eliza's son George had daughters Betty G. "Georgia" married Manassa Creel, Mary V. "Jennie" never married and one son, Silas Mortimer McConchie married Lula Anna Burke in 1885, daughter of William H. Burk and Lucy Amiss. The mystery remains of connecting George W. to the son William of Alexander and Catherine. We can't find a record showing that George W. went by William in his youth and then for some reason goes by George W. when he got married. "Fauquier Courthouse Deed book 75 page 66, dtd. 27 Feb. 1884/ Carolina A. Robinson, widow of Samuel, Jesse B. & Margaret Robinson, Manas A. Robinson & Laura B., Annie Jackson, C. Brown Willis & Fanny f., Robinson his wife, etc. heirs of Samuel Robinson of the first part, conveying to the second part-Mary McConchie, Bettie G. McConchie w/o M.M. Creel, Silas M. & Virginia McConchie. Deed further states that George, now dead, made a contract with Samuel Robinson to purchase 100 acres near Fayetteville, Fauquier Co. George and Sam died without executing any deed. Land located next to French Dodd, Alphonso Routt,William Franklin. C. Brown Willis & Fanny F. Willis, as well as Annie Jackson appeared before notaries in Washington, D.C. to sign." Would greatly appreciate all ideas or better yet, family info that would tell me that our George W. was for certain son of Alexander McConchie and Catherine Martin. Thank you! Amanda Douglass
