FLETCHER: After the marriage of George R. FLETCHER to Elizabeth "Betsy" Ann HURST in 1840, they remained in Claiborne Co. Tenn. for ten years or more, later moved to Lee Co. Va. where April 24, 1852, he purchased land, lying on the south side of Powell River, adjoining Francis A. MUNCY's land, near the Thompson Settlement Baptist Church, from James and Lucy Sims.

According to tradition, they moved in wagons and hacks, and his wife Betsy Ann drove a team and hack all the way to Texas. It took them six weeks to make the trip, and after arriving in Texas, they settled in Collin County, where they were living in 1880. According to tradition, around 1869-70, the Doyles, Fletchers, and some of the Muncys (those who intermarried with the Doyles and Fletchers) sold all their land holdings in Virginia and moved to Texas to find and establish new homes for themselves and their children. They left Lee County, Virginia on a boat they had built on Powell river, near the Powell Ford. Eventually, after waiting several months for a "tide" to move their boat off -the river was too shallow in places to accomodate a large boat -the day came for their departure. Old David Doyle had charge in the adventure. They went to Chattanooga, Tenn. where they sold their boat, and from there to Memphis, Tenn. by train, from there part of the way by boat down the Mississippi river, and by train and wagons. There was only one railroad in the State of Texas at that time, and paved roads were unheard of. After arriving in Texas they settled in Collin County at first, where some remained while others moved to different places.

Thompson by his first wife -the mother of the neice received the information via the grapevine, and immediately set off to fetch the 'young lady' home."

Notes for John Patterson ZION: 64th Virginia Infantry The 64th Virginia Mounted Infantry Regiment and its precursor unit, the 21st Virginia Infantry Battalion, were recruited in the autumn of 1861 in Lee, Scott, Wise and Buchanan counties, on the Kentucky frontier. The men jealously guarded their right to remain in their home area as a solemn promise, throughout the war, even while the infant Confederate States crumbled around them. The 64th Virginia Infantry was formally created on December 14, 1862, by the consolidation of the 21st and 29th Battalions of Virginia Infantry. The Regiment was reorganized September 1, 1863 at Cumberland Gap and became known as the 64th Virginia Cavalry. General Humphrey Marshall wrote to Adjutant and Inspector General Samuel Cooper on December 14, 1862, from Abingdon, Virginia. I forward the muster in Rolls of Captain M. V. Kilbourne's Co. H, Capt.

By Order of Sec. of War I consolidated this battalion with a battalion organized in Lee & Scott Counties by Mr. Saml. Salyers. Thereby forming a full Regiment, all Muster Rolls of which are herewith transmitted except one muster roll which was sent back to the Regiment for the Captain's signature. This Regiment will now have to be numbered as a new Virginia Regiment laying aside its battalion number (21). The muster rolls of the old Battalion's companies have of course been returned heretofore but I thought it would be preferred that all should be forwarded at the time the regimental organization was completed. The Commissioned are asked for: Campbell Slemp as Colonel, A. L. Pridemore as Lieut. Colonel, Jas. B. Richmond as Major, Geo. R. Johnson as Adjutant, H. C. Slemp is already Asst. Qr. Master, John Riddle as Commissary, C. C. Johnston as Surgeon (now Assistant), Wm. W. Morgrave as Assistant Surgeon I Have the Honor to Be Your Obt Servant Humphrey Marshall Brig. Gen. P.A.C.S.

Wynn's Company was formerly Company B of the 29th Battalion Virginia Infantry. Some members of this regiment had served in the 94th Virginia Militia.

Hello All: I just received this URL as part of my subscription to the daily upload report from Rootsweb. Since I have seen the RAMEY surname on these lists, I thought it would be prudent to list the URL for researchers to use. http://ftp.rootsweb.com/pub/usgenweb/va/wise/cemeteries/ramey.txt Thanks, Wayne Duncan Hills and Hollers Webmaster List Admin for: SWVA-NETN-SEKY-CHAT-L BIBLE-RECORDS-L MIGRATION-PATTERNS-L STATE-HISTORICAL-MARKERS-L

My Roberts family bounced back and forth between Hancock Co., TN and Lee Co., VA. I am in need of their census records for 1900. I am looking for the following: Ely/Eli Roberts and wife Lydia/Lyda they should have children Wiley and Elbert in the HH. James Roberts and wife Lillie/Lily. James could possibly be in Eli's HH. Thank you for any assistance you can provide. Terri

Am wonderin' if anyone on the list is a descendant or researcher of Milia Magalene Woods (born 1888/ died Knox Co., KY) and her brother Richard Woods (born 1890/died 1960, probably VA). Milia married William Winfield Scott in about 1905 (place unknown. VA/KY?) Son Willie married Rosie Ely. A daughter Eva married Cecil Miracle. Daughter Sally married James Welch. And another daughter Oma married a Mr. Garrett. Richard Woods married Elizabeth Baker after 1910. (Place unknown). A Lee Co., VA cemetery book states Elizabeth was the daughter of a John and Mary Baker. Have no other info on Elizabeth. Richard and Elizabeth are both laid to rest at the Morgan Cemetery at Rose Hill. Two of their children were born in Harlan Co., KY---Ira and Opal. But they also had children Grant, Jesse, Ruby, and Margaret.....but I don't know where they were born. Anyone know of a researcher who lives in Lee Co who would be able to obtain obits for me? Sincerely, Mary in CA

Looking for descendants of John Wood and Elizabeth Wilmouth Wood. Moved from Surry County NC. after 1850 with Children Alfred, Sarah, Nancy and Fereby. All children married in Lee Co. VA. Alfred to Elizabeth VanHuss, Nancy I believe to a Calvin Howard from Harlan Ky. Fereby to A.J. Butcher. Sarah I have not found a marriage record for her yet. Anyone know this line of Woods? What I would like to find out is John and Elizabeth's parents and siblings names. You can e-mail me at wood.c.j@worldnet.att.net Thanks Linda

My husband's great great grandparents, Solomon and Katherine King were said to be buried in Hidden Valley located on Wallen's Creek in Wythe Co., Va. Could this be the same Wallen Creek you are talking about? NFranci855@aol.com

In order to have a bird's eye view of Wallen Ridge and also be able navigate N, S, E, or W on the map, input Deep Springs, Virginia in the location. You will come to this site: http://WWW.TOPOZONE.COM/map.asp?lat=36.78333&lon=-82.86694 or you can copy and paste. Deep Springs is a VERY small community between Dryden in Lee County and Big Stone Gap in Wise County. As a child I lived in both Lee and Wise counties. Joy H.

Having perused the entire length of Wallen Creek (Wallens/Wallen's/Wallins) on July 3rd, I have to say the description posted is VERY accurate. I was in Lee, Scott, and Wise counties for the first four days of July. It is barely a foot wide and 3-6 inches deep in some places. It meanders accross the Lee County countryside and varies in width and depth throughout its course. I have fished the opening of Wallen Creek into the Powell River. There is an old grist mill near the opening. I have pictures of the mill which I will be posting very soon to the Hills and Hollers website.

Hi All, Does anyone have the 1860 Lee Co, Va census and be willing to do a lookup for me? Am interested in the listing for a Samuel H. Saul/Sauls. Thanks, Janice

Thanks for all the help on Wallen Creek...I will get map and keep checking. Does any one know of professional researchers in Lee Co? Thanks again, Nini

Hi List! The Virginia Division of Mineral Resources publishes a beautiful map of Lee County. It shows WALLEN CREEK (no apostrophe-s), running NE-SW about 3,000 feet (or so) north of, and parallel to, the Lee County/Scott County line. This is on the north side of Powell (again, no apostrophe-s) Mountain. A couple of miles downstream from its origin, Wallen Creek passes Stickleyville, where US Highway 58 crosses it. Further downstream (southwest), Wallen Creek is crossed by Highway 70. In the Thompson Mill/Van area, Wallen Creek wends its way north a couple of miles, where it meets up with Powell River (just downriver from Wilder Bend). [Blackwater is on the south side of Powell Mountain, and is located in a triangular portion of Lee County located south of Powell Mountain & west of the Scott County VA line, and north of the Hancock County TN line.] I hope you can visualize this. The map I've referenced is sold by U. S. Geological Survey, Reston, VA 22092; VA Div of Mineral Resources, Charlottesville, VA 22903; and U. S. Tennessee Valley Authority, 200 HB, Chattanooga, TN 37401. Gene Hyden (in New Orleans)

Hi Nini, There is a Wallins Creek in Harlan County, Ky. That is the only one I've heard of. Kentucky used to be part of Va. -----Original Message----- From: NSieck@aol.com [mailto:NSieck@aol.com] Sent: Tuesday, July 10, 2001 10:21 AM To: VALEE-L@rootsweb.com Subject: [VALEE-L] Wallens Creek, VA./Robert L.
