(The following is from Chapter XXVII of Clan Ewing of Scotland, page 284-299.)


“John Ewing died in Montgomery County between January 25, 1787, the date of his will, and March 5, 1788, the date that instrument was admitted to probate by the court. He was my great-grandfather. William Ewing, one of his children, was my grandfather. Grandfather died late in or shortly after 1852. In that year he conveyed to father part of the farm on which I was born. At grandfather's death my father, Joseph Hix Ewing, was about seventeen or eighteen years old, I have often heard him say. He was born in 1834. Unfortunately, I did not get interested in our genealogy until after father had gone. Grandfather, as we shall see, had a very large family; father was the next to the youngest; and the oldest was born in 1789. Father was one of the children by grandfather's second wife; and so it was that the older children had gone from the paternal home long before father was, and never in life did he see them. One of father's half-brothers, Alexander Ewing, I knew, and three of his sisters, Aunt Eliza Overton, Aunt Rhoda McNeil, and Aunt Caroline Gibson. Aunt Minerva Thomas and Aunt Basheba Kincaid, two other sisters, died when I was small, and their burials in the old Ewing graveyard on the farm in Powell Valley, where I was born, is all I recall of them. Uncle Alexander died when I was in college. My aunts who I knew had no family records; when consulted, were advanced in life, and could assist me only in a general way. So I had to rely largely upon such information as I could get from old people not belonging to our family, who knew grandfather, or who knew of him. Of the latter class was my uncle by marriage, Alexander C. McNeil, the husband of father's sister, Rhoda, who in his 84th year, on April 27, 1911, wrote me an interesting and intelligent account of his knowledge and information regarding our family.


“According to the survey records at Abingdon, the 815-acre tract was surveyed July 18, 1787, "for William Ewing, Jr., assignee of John Ewing." That this William Ewing was my grandfather there is no question, particularly since I know intimately the land involved; but why the "Jr." was used I don't know, unless to distinguish him from William Ewing of one of the older counties. There was in that day no other William Ewing in the Powell Valley section. This junior probably suggests that he was so known in his old home and before he became a resident of Powell Valley. The old records at Abingdon show that in other instruments before and about 1783 he was described as "William Ewing, Jr."


“When great-grandfather acquired his first Virginia lands, or where he first lived, I regret I have been unable to determine. Just where to look for the deeds depends upon where the land lay and the date, as is true of so much of early Virginia records. With nothing to give me any clue, it was only after years of search that I located his will. Montgomery County, including territory now within Wythe and Grayson, was formed in 1776 from Fincastle.

page 188

The records were kept in Fincastle town, or Court House. Fincastle was created in 1770 from part of widely flung Batetourt [Botetourt]. Up to 1776 Fincastle was one of the many empires once within Virginia's sweeping limits. Reaching far beyond the mountains, Fincastle included what are now the States of Kentucky and Illinois. The same law which established Montgomery created Washington County, which included all of what is now Southwest old Virginia. West of the Cumberlands the same act established the county of Kentucky; and later Kentucky was partitioned and Illinois County, Virginia, both long since States, was established.


“Batetourt (sic) was established over part of yet more extensive and justly famous Augusta in 1769; and, as we have seen, Augusta was formed from Orange, once a county, mostly an uninhabited wilderness, almost without limits. Hence it is easy to see why many deeds and other important papers were never recorded. When grandfather built his home in Powell Valley, he was nearly one hundred miles by the indifferent road of that day, over mountains and across many streams, to the court house at Abingdon. It was a horseback trip of about three days each way. With these county changes before the mind, it is also easy to see how difficult it often is to know who is who when seen in old records. Then, too, look at the names: John, William, Samuel, Joshua, George, &c.


“What became of the Cockes mentioned in great-grandfathers's will I have been unable to learn. I trust this publication will be the means of disclosing their descendants.


“Lee County was established over the southwestern section of Russell County by an act of the legislature passed in 1792. At that time the courts were held by justices, the usual eight being named as the first judges of the courts of Lee. Among the number are Joshua Ewing and grandfather, William Ewing (6 Virginia State Papers, 184.) At that time the judges of the courts held for each county were appointed under a law first enacted in 1661, which required for the position of a Virginia justice, "eight of the most able, honest and judicious persons of the County." At the time grandfather was on the justice's bench his court exercised criminal and civil jurisdiction, the criminal extending to capital punishment and the civil including the most extensive chancery or equity jurisdiction. In other words, he was a judge of the only court then held in his county.


“That this William Ewing, one of the first judges of my native county nearly one hundred and thirty years ago, [E.W.R. Ewing’s book was published in 1922] was my own grandfather, there is not the slightest doubt, --unusual as it is on account of the great lapse of time from that dreamy distance to this age of wonders. That such is true is tradition verified by documents left in the family and corroborated by the fact that not until the time of William Smith Ewing, many years subsequent, was there any other William Ewing in that section of Virginia. Joshua, appointed as grandfather's associate, was the brother of Samuel, the county's first sheriff.


“Unfortunately, the court records of Lee are missing up to May 8, 1808, probably due to the ravages of the Union army. How long grandfather served cannot be known. The oldest records now extant show that the court held May 8, 1808, was held by Judges William Neill, Samuel Ewing, John W. McKinney, and Robert Duff; but as only a majority of the justices were necessary, it can not be known who of those earliest commissioned had resigned. At a session begun March 28, 1809, Justices Joshua and Samuel Ewing (the ex-sheriff, who subsequently again became sheriff) were of those on the bench.


“It was not until April 17, 1809, that part of the jurisdiction of the court held by the justices was assumed by what was known as the "Superior Court of Law" over which one judge presided. At that term Samuel Ewing and grandfather, William Ewing, were members of the grand jury.


“Considered in the light of their day, such records are enlightening and very gratifying. Among others, indicative of character and standing and interesting for their light upon the conditions of grandfathers's section of Virginia, a few more instances are worth while.


“November 17, 1792, the Virginia legislature passed a law "to facilitate the intercourse of the inhabitants of this commonwealth with the State of Kentucky," authorizing a wagon road leading from the old Block house (a frontier fort) near what is now Bristol, across Powell Mountains, down Powell Valley, to the top of Cumberland Mountain in Cumberland Gap. Up to that time the route to followed by the road was one of the most traveled by the westward bound pioneers, large caravans and numerous bands and slowly moving parties, convoyed by armed men, being a daily sight. Yet no effort by any authority to open or improve the road was made up to this act of the Virginia legislature in 1792. But nothing except to view the route was done toward bettering this much-traveled path along which the great American expansion was moving, until December 18, 1794, when William Ewing and Charles Cocke (believed to have been grandfather's nephew) and three other residents of Lee County, or any three of them, were authorized to spend, without bound, $1,000 in building the first section of this road. (14 Hening, Virginia Statues, 314. Hening misspelled grandfather's name, and has it Irving.)


“An act of the legislature on December 19, 1794, authorized the town of Jonesville, and made it the county seat. Fifty-five acres of land, on which the town was located, were conveyed to William Ewing, my grandfather, and nine others as trustees for the use of the county. (Idem, 322).


“Again on January 25, 1799, grandfather, William Ewing was named as one of the commissioners who were authorized to expend, without bound, money to open and improve another section of the old wilderness path. (15 Hening, 164, 212).

“We estimate that this William Ewing was born about 1760 [he was born 18 June 1864]. He died about 1852, on the extensive valley lands he long owned, much of which he bought or obtained from the State and about 2,000 acres of which he acquired under the will of his father. There is very conclusive traditional evidence of his service in the patriot armies of the Revolution. The meager data now extant from which the Virginia State Library has compiled rosters of soldiers of the Revolution, make it impossible to say which of the William Ewings there found is this ancestor of mine. Then, as is well known, the rosters of patriot soldiers, particularly those who rendered such valuable service against the Indian allies of the British, a service it is certain, among others, grandfather rendered, is incomplete. Tradition must be trusted. For years many Ewings of the southwestern part of Virginia were lost from the Virginia genealogies; and this led to conclusions regarding the military service of those in other parts of the country that has led to some error, due wholly to the distressing repetition of first names.


“About five miles nearly west of what is now Jonesville, this William Ewing built, at least as early as 1782, his home on the south bank of Trading Creek. Far away to the north the Cumberlands tower above the valley. From an elevation near the house one gets an enchanting view of the Powell Mountains, miles away and on the eastern side of the valley. The original house was a large two story building of heavy, hand-hewn logs; and, the white plaster filling the interstices, the appearance was pleasing. With its big, open fire places, it became a commodious and hospitable home, representative of the better homes of prewar Virginia. Particularly when the numerous, cleanly and well kept ‘negro quarters’ stood in the background, it was a prosperous home on the immense farm of a typical Southern gentleman. Built of heavy logs hewn to about six inches of thickness, the structure was home and fort. For more than ten trying years after it was built, again and again the bloody savages swept into the valley, committed arson and murder and hurried through the few inaccessible mountain gaps into the wilderness. Interesting are the stories of siege and defense through which that old house passed to stand, remodeled and now and again modernize, and to become the birth-place of all of grandfather's family and of my father's family, for nearly one hundred and forty years! In a deposition by Peter Fulkerson of Lee County, given May 28, 1811, in the case of McKenny v. Preston (2 Chalkley, 227), it is shown that the county west of Clinch River was little settled "and dangerous in 1785 on account of Indians." Powell Valley, now in Lee County, was the outpost of that dangerous zone. There is much evidence of this danger we cannot examine here. On December 22, 1792, Col. Andrew Lewis, charged with the military defense of the valley, reporting to the governor of Virginia said:

 

‘I think it necessary that troops for Powell's Valley should as soon as raised be sent there; the people by no means think themselves safe. Captain Neale must, of course, be continued in that place.’ (See The Pioneer Gateway of the Cumberlands.)


“Captain "Neale" (Neil) was already patrolling the valley with troops; yet the stealthy Indians, in small bands, continued deadly raids. On one of such raids Grandfather Ewing, apprised of the attack, hurried alone into one of the gaps in the rock-crowned Cumberlands through which gap he though it probable the savages would retreat. He concealed himself far up the heights. The sun hurried over the distant Powell. As the light gladdened the valley at his feet, he got his eye on a small detachment of the marauding savages, one following another, coming up the torturous trail leading through the gap. At the opportune movement his old flint lock brought down the leader; and then incredible as it appears, two more paid the last penalty for the booty which they had gathered from his neighbors by knife and torch. The others, terror wild, plunged into the laurels and escaped.


“For many years after grandfather built his home in the valley, buffalo, deer, bear, and all the other wild game abounded in that region. Dressed in a red hunting shirt, he had many dangerous encounters with the wild beasts. Thrilling stories of those adventures come down to us by authenticated tradition; but there is no space here for them.


“One story, however, became illustrative of prevailing conditions of the valley region for many years, is worth while. Until 1793 the courthouse, the county seat of justice, was about one hundred miles from grandfather's home. He was a large stock raiser. Much of the land grew the famous blue-grass; and corn and other grains grew in the greatest yield. Much of the immense boundary was yet in virgin timber, great oaks, towering walnuts, poplars sometimes 10 and 15 feet in diameter, and other trees. Hogs brought a good price and thrived most of the feeding season on the acorns of the oak. Often great droves would wander far from inhabited sections. Once two men stole a large number thus found isolated and began to drive them out of the community. In some way grandfather heard of the attempt to drive off his valuable herd; mounted his horse, armed with his ready gun; pursued and alone overtook the trespassers. He is described as well built, fearless, as was my father, keen of eye, quick of wit, and relentless of purpose once his resolution was formed; but, withal fair and just. A man who alone would fight a bank of Indians, on murder bent, in a distant and lonely mountain pass, was not to be regarded lightly. At the point of his gun he took both the thieves. He was recovering the property; the jail was one hundred miles beyond the mountains. So he tied both men to a tree and administered on their bare backs the number of lashes with "a cowhide whip," while the victims writhed and swore lustily, prescribed by the law for misdemeanors. Each miscreant agreed, as something of a penance of honor, to hold up his shirt rather than remove it, and thus "take his medicine like a man." One, however, lost his nerve, dropped his shirt at each cut of the keen whip and bellowed lustily. This lost whatever respect grandfather may have had for him, resulting in a very bitter "double dose" for failure to keep his contract.


“This truthful story not only disclosed character; but quite as much opens a flood of light upon the early days of Powell Valley before grandfather became one of the judges of the court which after 1793 sat within five miles of his home.

“Grandfather William Ewing left the identified descendants whose names follow, and no doubt others, whom I have not "discovered." Many of those given are men and women of ability and at least equally as prominent as are those of any other branch of our family. I have not the space to give to them the credit they richly deserve, simply because this work has long since gone beyond its commercial possibilities.”

William R. Ewing, Sr. wrote in 1994 “the birth and death dates for his children were recorded in the family Bible of Stephen S. Ewing, Sr., but have not been included in reports I have seen to date. Even my Great Grandfather Thomas M. Ewing, Sr. did not include them in notes he had made. Nor were they given to E. W. R. Ewing by my grandfather William B. Ewing, II.”

 

In his late teens or early twenties Stephen S. Ewing migrated to Alabama. He was listed in the 1810 Census as living in Cherokee County. By 1812 he was in business and acquiring property in Huntsville, Madison County, Alabama. In 1814 he was a partner in the partnership of Beatty, Ewing, and Henderson. He organized the first bank in Huntsville and named it "The First National Bank of Huntsville" according to data gathered by Battle Bell Ewing dated 25 December 1976. He was for several years the president of the National Bank of Huntsville. Stephen S. Ewing invested in a number of businesses including the Memphis and Charleston Railroad Company. He managed several businesses in Aberdeen, Mississippi with his sons, Charles C. and James Ewing.


After his wife died in 1849 and his son Charles C. Ewing died in 1852 in Aberdeen, Mississippi, Stephen S. Ewing moved to Aberdeen and lived there until his death.

By deed dated December 19, 1853, Alexander Ewing of Madison County, Alabama, acquired from Jose Antonio Navarro 6,509 acres of land, almost one and one-half leagues, the northern portion of the M. Cherino Two League Grant. Here he established his plantation. This land is north of Seguin, Texas and east of San Marcos Highway, extending eastward about 2 1/2 miles and almost 4 miles north and south. This plantation was near Geronimo, Texas.

Andrew died 1901 in Quincy, Gadsden County, Florida, and was buried in Mount Pleasant, Gadsden County, Florida. Return to parents

In correspondence with Tammy Young in 1993, the following was received: “Turner Rice believes Andrew was named for the president because Jackson marched through Huntsville around the time of Andrew's birth. At some point circa 1844, Andrew and Sarah traveled from Alabama to Texas. In the 1850 census, they are listed under Titus County, Texas. We have some excerpts of Mollie Rice's diary, dated Seguin, Texas, 1859. Turner Rice believes that by 1860, the family was in Victoria County, Texas, and when Civil War broke out in 1861, the family moved to Florence, Lauderdale County, Alabama. Andrew and his oldest son both fought for the Confederate Army. According to Turner Rice, ‘Andrew J. Rice was captured by Yankee raiders in August of 1862, while on leave visiting his family in Florence. He was taken to Tuscumbia as a prisoner, but either escaped or was freed by his captors. Family legend has it that during the war Captain Rice learned his wife was desperately short of funds. He applied for leave, slipped through enemy lines to his former home in Texas, where he sold his property for gold, and returned to Florence with the gold in the same venturesome manner.’ In 1876, the Rice and Key families moved to Florida. There is some debate about whether Andrew and Sarah had another son, Andrew Jackson Rice, Jr., who either died at a young age or ran away. I have seen no proof of the existence of this son, but the possibility cannot be ruled out.”

When William was eighteen years old, he enlisted in Company D, 29th Regiment Tennessee Infantry.

When the war ended in 1865, he took the oath of Allegiance to the United States and was allowed to return to his home. During his imprisonment in the Yankee camp, he hand carved a set of chessmen which still remain in the family. He used mulberry juice to stain one-half of the set and left the other plain.
