This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Author: slkmallow Surnames: Conrad, Lough, Mallow, Miller, Morral, Morton, Seybert, Skidmore Classification: deed Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.northam.usa.states.westvirginia.counties.pendleton/1769.3/mb.ashx Message Board Post: Morton, in his History of Pendleton County, gives confusing and sometimes conflicting data regarding the location of many parcels. He indicates in 1773 that Adam Lough had a survey for 33 acres above Switzer's Gap (p. 381). (The survey was actually for 53 acres and it was never granted but incorporated in Lough's 138 acre parcel although Morton does not so indicate). Morton did indicate the 138 acres was patented in 1787 (p. 386) and on the head of Deer Run. Adam Lough had first purchased Jacob Seybert's 88 acre grant from Nicholas Seybert which Morton indicates was near Dean's Gap (p. 376). In the 'points' of the grant for the 138 acres, it's mentioned that a line was shared with Lough's former property (and the 88 acres is the only property he formerly owned in then Augusta County). So, it's unclear from the beginning whether the land was above Switzer's Gap, at the head of Deer Run, or near Dean's Gap. To make matters worse, Jacob Seybert's 88 acre grant shared some lines with Michael Mallow's 470 acre grant that Morton indicated was at Kline (pg. 376). Kline, Deer Run, and Dean's Gap are all still found in modern Pendleton County and several miles apart. The locations did not actually exist at the time the grants were given but were based on the locations at the time Morton wrote the book (ca 1910). In an article which is on-line at http://www.swcp.com/~dhickman/journals/V5I3/lough.html , Warren Skidmore placed Adam Lough's 138 acres on Shaver's Run which is modern day Mill Run in Pendleton County. Since the 88 acres purchased from Nicholas Seybert shared a line with 138 acres, it's unclear from his wording whether Skidmore also believed that parcel was on Shaver's Run which he may have believed was previously called Switzer's Run: "The search for the family of Adam and George Lough starts on Switzers Gap Run in Pendleton County where Adam, a native of Germany, had settled by 1769. Some 17 years later Adam had an additional 138 acres surveyed there, and his younger brother George acquired his first tract of 68 acres at the same time. Both surveys were done on 16 February 1786. Elsewhere we learn that these tracts were on Shavers Run which heads up in Hardy County, runs in a southerly direction through Mill Creek District of Pendleton County, and drains into the South Branch of the Potomac." From Warren Skidmore's article. Skidmore indicates later in his article that Adam Lough died at Kline - which is, indeed, on modern day Mill Run (formerly Shaver's Run) - and that he is likely buried there. It is unknown whether Skidmore based the location of the 138 acres on misinformation from Morton regarding Michael Mallow's land or another source. The 138 acres is actually at the head of Deer Run. It adjoins pioneers Ulrich Conrad's 240 acre survey and Michael Mallow's 470 acre survey as well as Jacob Seybert's 88 acres. By the time Adam Lough received the grant, Ulrich Conrad had sold his land to Samuel Morral and Michael Mallow had sold his to James Mountgomery who, in turn, had sold it to Adam Harpole so the grant describes the parcel as adjoining Morrel and Harpole as well as Lough's former land which was Seybert's 88 acres. Although we have to give Morton credit for placing the 138 acres on the head of Deer Run, the location of this plot is key to proving that Morton was in error regarding Jacob Seybert's 88 acres near Dean's Gap and Michael Mallow's 470 acres at Kline. All three are proven to have been adjoining. The 'head of Deer Run" is where the stream rises and is just east of the community of Deer Run on a modern map (what Morton often refers to as Deer Run P.O.) Lough's southeast corner is crossed by the stream. Skidmore's conclusion that Adam Lough died at Kline and was likely buried there probably needs reconsideration from his readers. Lough's third parcel for 80 acres which is mentioned in the article as "on Shaver's Run" was granted to George Miller and the description actually reads "on some branches of Shaver's Run". The parcel is just west of Johnson's Run (formerly Harpole Run) which empties into Mill Run (formerly Shaver's Run) from the south and is not quite halfway between Lough's two parcels on the head of Deer Run and the location of Kline. If Adam Lough died at or near Kline, it was not on his own property. The location of Switzer's Gap Run mentioned in the Lough grant and the likely reason it was so named will follow in a post regarding Samuel Morral's 290 acres. [Placing these properties correctly on the map was due to expert guidance from Steven Zuraff and he has my sincerest gratitude. I was not researching Adam Lough at the time but, an ancestor, Michael Mallow. Sandra Keltner] Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.

Dear Sandra: Looking at your map and my state road map it appears that the Lough property I was on and the place the graves are located were part of the Adam Lough 138 acre grant. I can't be positive, but, it sure looks like it to me. I assume you know that Adam Lough was an appraiser of Jacob Conrad's estate and that he named a son Conrad. I also descend from the Harpoles through Sarah Harpole who married John Lough, son of Adam. I have been to their graves too. For years, many people thought Adam Lough's wife was Barbara Conrad, but, I think she was a Lack. Our friend Isaac Richard Lough has passed on by now, I am sure. He never married, stayed on the home place and should have known a lot about the family. I have a pic of him on my wall in front of me. We just loved spending time with him. He really liked my wife, the ole rascal. Lyle Corder **************Get fantasy football with free live scoring. Sign up for FanHouse Fantasy Football today.

Dear Lyle, I don't think we share any common ancestors although a couple of my ancestresses' families remain unproven. But, we certainly share some history with the land. The Harpoles bought the land that was Michael Mallow's first grant in then Augusta County - the 470 acres adjoining Adam Lough. Michael was on the land by the fall of 1753 (probably a year or so before that) when the survey was made and he sold it in 1768 after his wife died. James Mountgomery bought it and then sold it the next year to Adam Harpole at a hefty premium. I've followed the division of that land out and will post it at some point. I've made quite a few genealogical notes on the Loughs because of their proximity to the Mallows as well as the interaction between the families. It's been a great help to understand where the various properties were actually located. So many things now make sense that previously didn't.

Your Message Board Post: I have a picture of the grave of Adam Lough on Deer Run. The marker was pointed out to me some years ago by one of his descendants who lived on the property. Lyle Corder ******* Lyle. Is it possible for you to upload the photo as an attachment? Can you tell how old the marker is (whether it was placed near the time of Adam's death or much later?) and is there anyway to pinpoint the location on a drawing of his parcels if I send you the configuration of the plots? How exciting!! Sandra Keltner

Author: slkmallow Surnames: Shaver, Shever, Mallo, Mallow, Hull Classification: deed Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.northam.usa.states.westvirginia.counties.pendleton/1769.2/mb.ashx Message Board Post: I've listed below a history of the 200 acres taxed to Adam Mallow in 1789 from the original grant in 1765 through the year 1815. This acreage is on Mill Run in modern day Pendleton County between the South Branch and Greenawalt Gap. Like most streams, the name has changed over the years. It was first called Licking Creek, then Shaver's Run, then Mallow's Run, Mallow's Mill Run, and finally, just Mill Run. It might be helpful - as well as interesting - if others would list what information they have on the history of any of the parcels on the 1789 tax list or give the location, if known, for any parcels. 1. First owner: the original land grant for this 200 acre parcel was issued to PAUL SHAVER [aka Shever]. He also was the one who had previously had the plot surveyed. *"Shever, Paul. Publication 26 July 1765. Other Format Available on microfilm. Virginia State Land Office. Patents 1-42, reels 1-41. Note Location: Augusta County. Description: 200 acres on Licking Creek a branch of the south branch of Potomack on the east side of Sheltons land. " [LVA land grants on-line] 2. Second owners: After Paul Shaver's death, the property passed to his eldest son, GEORGE SHAVER, who sold it to Michael Mallow. The widow, ELIZABETH SHAVER, had dower rights under Virginia law and she conveyed those at the same to Michael Mallow. "Page 398.--18th August, 1772. George ( ) Shaver, eldest son and heir apparent of Paul Shaver, deceased, and Elizabeth ( ) Shevar, widow of Paul, to Michael Mallow, 200 acres lately the property of Paul on Licking Creek, a branch of South Branch of Potowmac, opposite Shelton's land." ftp://ftp.rootsweb.com/pub/usgenweb/va/augusta/court/3court52.txt [Chalkley's Chronicles of the Scotch-Irish on-line] 3. Third owner - MICHAEL MALLOW. Upon his death, which was soon after the purchase in the fall of 1772, the property passed to his eldest son, Adam Mallow who was barely 21 yrs old at the time. 4. Fourth owners - ADAM and SARAH MALLOW - who sold a portion of 15 acres to Henry Mallow in 1792. Adam then made an inclusive survey of the 200 acres plus 58 new acres [why the 15 acres wasn't deducted is unexplained]. Adam then sold the 258 acre inclusive grant to Jacob Hull Sr. By Virginia Law, Adam's wife, Sarah aka Sally, was vested in the original property at the time of her marriage to Adam as well as the additional property taken at the time of the inclusive grant so her signature was required on the subsequent conveyances. 5 Nov 1792 Adam and Sarah Mallow sell 2 tracts of land to Henry Mallow for 20 pounds - 15 acres of a 200 acre tract patented to Paul Shaver 26 Jul 1765 and 114 acres patented to Michael Mallow 27 Aug (no year indicated) located on Mallows Run. Pendleton County Deed Book 1:231-232 [Also see entry Rick Toothman's Pendleton County (West) Virginia Deedbook Records, pg 20.] *Mallow, Adam. Publication 14 January 1799. Location: Pendleton County.

Adam is in the county for the closing and has Sally's POA from Ohio. Pendleton County Deedbook 6:196-198 5. Fifth owners - HENRY MALLOW either 10 or 15 acres of the original 200 acres and JACOB HULL SR either 185 or 190 acres of the original 200 acres plus another 58 acres added to it by inclusive survey.

Jean, It seems he patented his land in 1787 under another variation of the name [possibly Cheuveront instead of the transcribed Chenveront although I see why the mistake was made when looking at the recording ] - see below. He may have been on the land sooner as was common for the patent process but it's likely he was gone before May of 1791 so he may only have been in the present day Pendleton area a few years. It's of course possible he was there longer but not as a land owner . . . maybe someone else knows.

Willow, I think that's likely. The name was just so badly misspelled that wasn't sure. However, upon checking, there is an entry in Toothman's Deedbook Records on pg 12 that references the sale of 62 ac from Joseph and Elizabeth Cheuvront, Randolph Co, to Christian Hynecker on 2 May 1791. The land is described as on the east side of the North Fork . . between John Shall and Andrew Johnson [sic - Johnston] and indicates a patent date of 9 Feb 1787. Another entry shows that Moses Henkle was given power of attorney to convey the land.

Bill, Thanks for the notes and info. This has all been most educational for all of us. Like you, I have no idea how they number their Volumes. I would suspect that a digest is sent only when there are messages to send, so you would only receive a digest on days when it is triggered by a message. We definitely have not had messages every day over the past few months. Since we have determined that this is an automated footer from the message board posts, that moderator/manager, Willow, is pursuing it. Do you receive the footer as English words or non-readable characters? That would be another problem. Nedra At 11:41 AM 7/8/2008 -0400, you wrote: >Nedra, this is becoming more and more puzzling.

Willow, Thank you. Our messages crossed in the mail. All of you can note that a footer is added by the system to all our messages, uncluding this one, with instructions on how to unsubscribe A bit more "dainty" but basically the same purposed as the lengthy one added to those from the message board.

Nancy, Thank you. This message is automatically forwarded from the Pendleton County message board so we have no control over the sender who is not a member of this group. Long ago we decided that our subscribers here would also like to see queries that are posted there. Bill, are you saying that the message has non-English gibberish (a different problem to solve) or just the following footer added? (The advantage to list mode rather than digest is that you can read the message without having to scroll past unimportant footers.) Willow, can you help with this? I notice that some of the message board messages have this footer while others do not.

This has happened to me several times. I will suddenly be swamped with "return messages" saying that a particular message didn't make it through to these e-mail addresses. I usually cannot figure out if I was selling Viagra or Breast Enhancements, but it has gone out under my e-mail address. I have also gotten garbage mail "from" my brother who finally had to change is address completely.

I don't remember getting any junk mail from this list. It would seem that Bill is the only one. A particularly irritating scam run by some spammers is to use an otherwise trusted email as the "from" to hit people. I have had this happen where they once used mine--for a fellow genealogist who really hated me, but I was in her contacts list. She got some spam "from" me and used it as an excuse to visciously flame me...all over again. I knew that was what had happened, but there wasn't any point in explaining it to her. It has happened to me "from" other people I know as well. If you know your email program you can make the message "from" anyone.
