I'm trying to locate a 250 acre piece of land on Holman's Creek that was owned by Markus Iler and conveyed to Michael and Margaret Nease in 1772. It was bounded by land owned by Christian Funkhouser and Henry Funk. In 1777 188 acres was "leased/deeded" to Conrad Pence for 5 shillings, and the remaining 62 acres was "Leased" to Mathias & Mary Beaver for 5 shillings. In 1780, Mathias Beaver "leased" the 62 acres to Michael and Sibilla Pence, who in turn, conveyed this land to Christian Richards in 1796. My questions are: Does anyone recognize this piece of land, or the area where it was located? Does anyone know the difference between "lease", "deed", and "convey" for this time period? What would the significance of "leasing" this property for 5 shillings be? It seems like a token amount of money. Marc

Marc, The following is only one of a number of deed abstracts copied from Richard Pence's site referring to 'Holeman's' Creek. http://www.pipeline.com/~richardpence/shendeed.htm "The following deed abstracts are from books compiled by Amelia C. Gilreath. Ms. Gilreath has abstracted the deeds of Frederick County (Vols. 1-6 cover the period from 1743 to 1775) and Shenandoah County (Vols. 1-9 cover the period from 1772 to 1820) (The site gives Ms. Gilreath's smail and e-mail address) "[Vol. 1, 17] Deed Book A, Page 162 - 24 Nov. 1772. [Lease] Between Markus Ilor of Count of Dunmore [to] Michael Pence of same place ... Consideration of Five Shillings ... part of two tracts or parcelis of Land lying in County of Dunmore formerly Frederick on the Drains of Holeman Creek ... 266 acres being part of 326 acres Deeded to Jacob Boon and conveyed William Carroll and by said Carroll conveyed to Markus Ilor ... the other being 60 acres of the Easterly tract of 250 acres Granted Adam Rineheart from Proprietors Office 7 Aug. 1766 ... the rent of one pepper corn on Lady day next ...

I placed an order with them because they search their network of used bookstores. It was very generous of you to copy all the names noted in Capt. Holman's Shenandoah Co. Militia 1775. A number of names were of particular (try enormous) interest. I certainly hope someone responds to your query about this militia. Maggie Kyger Miller (loganholmes@aol.com)

Hi Maggie, Yes, I can relate to that. In fact I got quite a chuckle out of it. I have a g-g-g-uncle who died on 19 July 1859, in Auglaize County, Ohio. He still managed to show up in the 1860 census, for that county, which was taken on 19 June 1860. I have a suspicion that no one was home, when the census taker came around, and the census taker got the "information" from the neighbors. They did get all of the names and ages down, pretty well, but they spelled the last name as "Runsin" instead of "Runyon".

Thanks Jim, >Was your person on the 1850 mortality schedule? Unfortunately I'm dealing with Mississippi. I brought the question to this forum because I'm transcribing the 1860 census and want to put this possibilty in my transcriber's notes. And by the way, I have heard from several people that my PARTIAL transcription is online. It shouldn't be. It has not been proofread. I'm slogging along. Maggie

A while ago I printed information from this site relating to the age of family members as enumerated by the census taker. In 1850 it was the age as of June 1. An odd situation in my own file. Family members have stated that a certain person died September 5, 1850. Yet on the actual census the person appears. Date the enumerator visited the household was September 12, 1850. Would the enumerator have recorded the person because she was living on June 1, 1850 even though she died September 5th? Has anyone else run across this situation?

January 9, 1939, at daughter's house in Angola, Steuben County, Indiana[48,49]. Notes for JOHN M. BUCK: JOHN M. BUCK This prominent manufacturer and head of one of one of Bluffton's leading industrial enterprises is a native of Indiana, born at Alexandria, Madison county, on the 2d day of June, 1853. His father, Henry Buck, formerly a land owner and farmer of the above county, was of German descent, and the mother, whose maiden name was Jemima Chamness, comes from a long line of Quaker ancestors. For many years Henry Buck was not only one of the leading agriculturists of Madison county, but also achieved prominence as a local politician of the Republican party, having been one of the first men in his part of the state openly to avow and defend what was then the political heresy of abolitionism. He acquired some property, was twice married, and departed this life in the year 1867. His second wife, the mother of the subject of this sketch is still living (note: this biographical sketch was written in 1903). John M. Buck was the oldest of the children born to his father's second marriage. He was reared to maturity in close touch with nature and as a farm hand early learned by experience the true meaning of honest toil. His means for acquiring an education were such as a few months' attendance each year at the public schools afforded, consequently, he was not a learned man in the sense of the term as generally understood, although possessing a fund of valuable practical knowledge such as schools and colleges do not impart. Young Buck assisted in cultivating the home farm until his twenty-fourth year, when he started into the world for himself, first directing his attention to buying and selling lumber and later taking up the trade of wood turning. He started, in 1890, a small establishment of his own in the town of Geneva. He spent about five years at the above place, when he found it necessary to secure a more favorable location, consequently he moved his establishment to the city of Bluffton. Since moving to the latter place in 1895, Mr. Buck has built up an extensive business and, as stated in the initial paragraph, the enterprise has become on of the largest and most important of the city's industries. In addition to the plant at Bluffton, which gives employment to about twenty-five men and from three to five teams every working day of the year, he operates a branch factory at Auburn, this state, which, under his direction, has steadily increased its output and grown in public favor. Mr. Buck manufactures wooden tool handles. His weekly payroll at Bluffton alone will average about two hundred and fifty dollars, in addition to which he pays every week to the farmers in the vicinity who furnish him, very satisfactorily, with raw material the sum of four hundred dollars. Mr. Buck began manufacturing in a very small way and the large measure of success which has attended him is due entirely to his own energy, superior management and wise business foresight. At the outset, he encountered many difficulties and numerous obstacles calculated to impede and discourage, but with an inborn determination which hesitated at none of these impediments to his progress, he persevered, gradually removing everything in his pathway and gaining favor until he found himself upon a well established basis which made ultimate success a certainty. That he has achieved his aim is abundantly attested by the place his plant occupies among the industries of Bluffton, in the business circles of the city and throughout the state. The constantly increasing demands for his products necessitates the running of his several establishments at their full capacity, and , judging by present prospects, their enlargement or the building of additional plants is only a matter of time. Few men in Wells county stand higher in the esteem of their fellow citizens than Mr. Buck and none have better records for energy, honesty and sterling integrity. He is a man of actions rather than words, attends strictly to his own affairs, at the same time being not unmindful of the duty which every citizen owes to the public. He is essentially a business man and as such ranks with the most enterprising and progressive of his contemporaries, deserving of great credit for what he has done for this city in the way of giving employment to labor and providing a good market for the farmers with timber to dispose of. Mr. Buck supports the Republican party, but aside from voting for the regular nominees, takes little interest in political matters, having no ambition to gratify in the way of public distinction or official honors. He owns a beautiful and attractive home on the corner of Wabash and Market streets, where he welcomes and entertains his friends with a genuine hospitality. Mr. Buck was married in 1880 to Miss Caroline Pugh of Alexandria, Madison county, this state, a union blessed with three children: Roland C., the eldest, was born on the 20th day of June 1881, served with Company M, Twenty-eighth Regiment, United States Infantry, in the Philippines, and was shot and killed from ambush by native robbers on July 13, 1902; Clyde, the second of the family, was born December 7, 1883; Alline, the youngest, is a student in the Bluffton high school. Mrs. Buck is a member of the Methodist church and well known in the best social circles of the city. While not identified with any religious organization himself, Mr. Buck believes in the church as a great moral force among men and is liberal in his contributions to its support. Taken from pages 334-335 of the Biographical Memoirs of Wells County, 1903.

John King married (1856) Emma Mauzy b. 1841 Rockingham County, to Albert G. Mauzy and Julia Nicholas Mauzy. She died ca. 1881. They are found on the 1880 federal census for Rockingham County, VA Dec. 17, 1886, they became parents of Harry Bernard King in Mt. Solon, Augusta County, VA.
