Descendants of John Ewing (1648-1745) of Carnashannagh

10. John Ewing-[12] ¹⁵ (John of Carnashannagh¹) was born in 1703,^¹ was christened on 14 Oct 1703 in Donegal, Ulster, Ireland,^¹⁵ and died after 17 Oct 1736 in Little Britian, Chester, PA.^¹⁸

Christening Notes: Burt Congregation register: 1703 October 14 John Ewing (Carnshannagh) had John [baptized].

Death Notes: His will was dated 17 Oct 1736, and letters granted to his wife, Sarah, on 19 Nov. 1736.
John was assassinated by a serving man. The Jamison information has the year as 1735. That year is in error based on the date as written in the will.
[The outside of the will has a date of 19 Nov 1735. There must be an error. The is of death is either 1735 or 1736. In the will in two places the year is written in words not numeric.)

1. Will: 1736, Chester Co., PA.²⁶ Chester County, Pennsylvania Estate Papers #548 John Ewing, London Britain
“In the name of God Amen; This Seventeenth Day of October in the year of our Lord God one thousand seven hundred and thirty six; I, John Ewing, of London Britain. county of Chester, Weaver, ... leave to my well beloved wife Sarah Ewing who I constitue make and ordain my only and sold executrix ... one third part of my personal estate and chattles whatsoever ... well beloved son Thomas one third part of all my personal effects goods and chattles whatsoever ... well beloved son Joshua Ewing one third part of my personall estate goods and chattles soever ... I likewise Define and appoint my well beloved brother William Ewing and David Jenkins guardians and trustees for my two well beloved sons Thomas and Joshua...shall reach the age of twenty one years.”
witnesses/ Andrew Vance, Matthew Warren and John Jones.

A copy of the original will, #548 Chester county, PA, archives, shows that the will of John Ewing, husband of Sarah Jenkins, was written 17 October 1736 and signed that date. The will cover and a statement beside the witnesses signatures state “Inventory approved 19 November 1735”.

Myrtle Roe’s research material, Notebook 7, 2nd tab, includes: “History Map of Chester County, PA, tax lists, including Hillis and Ewings, researched by Gilbert Cope, Chester County Archivist, lists from 3rd Pennsylvania Archives and also additional tax lists of East and West Nottingham. One item is: 1735 Sarah Ewing, London Britain, 1/0 tax. This causes one to wonder, in light of the above will, whether this is Sarah Jenkins Ewing, wife of John. Did the servant, supposed to have murdered John, wound him and he lingered for awhile? If so, as a result, did Sarah have to take inventory early in order to pay their tax? Additional research in Chester County Archives might be fruitful. Could there be final probate papers and a probate jacket? [A copy of the will was “displayed” at the Clan Ewing reunion in 2002 and the dates on the will are as they appear above. The date at the end of the will is in a different handwriting than that of the will and the date is beside the parentheses which has been put beside the names of Andrew Vance and John Jones, witnesses. [Myrtle Roe's reseach papers are stored at Cecil County, Maryland Historical and Genealogy Society in Elkton, Maryland.]

2. Residence.²⁷ The first record in America of this family seems to be that of John Ewing in the 1730 Tax Record of London Britain Twp. He is single or it could be OLD JOHN.

1. Marriage: : 1732. John is listed on the 1730 Tax Record of London Britain Twp. He is over 21 and unmarried. On the 1732 tax of London Britain twp. Chester Co., PA, he is shown as married.

General Notes: Kathryn Jenkins, who sent this information, stated she grew up in Southern Lancaster Co., PA, about 1/4 mile north of the Maryland border. Where she grew up was land that David Jenkins purchased in 1766 and the house that Nathaniel built.
Kathryn stated that a Thomas Phillips, Williston, Chester Co., PA, [a word or two must have been left out] written 10 June 1772 left money to Sarah widow of Peter Mather towards the support of her son "a deaf and dumb boy".
I wrote Kathryn that the woman, supposed to be an Ewing expert at the Chester Co. Archives played coy when I asked about deaf and dumb. Said Thomas was not deaf and dumb but would give no more information. Kathryn said she must be the same woman who played coy with her, told Kathryn that Sarah Jenkins married a Ewing first but would give her no more information.
Other information sent: There is also another Ewing connection with the Jenkins tribe. Charity Jenkins married George A. Ewing, son of Alexander and Lusander Ewing of Cecil Co., MD. George and Charity had a son Harvey and 3 infants buried at Rock Springs Primitive Baptist Cemetery in Lancaster Co., PA.
The 1850 census of Cecil Co., MD: Alexander 56; wife Lusander 40; Children: George 19; Wm. 14; Eliza 11; Harvey 10; Amos 9; John 7; Lous 4; (sic) Mary 1. ²⁸

2. Court: 1784, Chester Co., PA.²⁷ Court of Common Pleas, Chester County, Pennsylvania, 26 Feb 1784
Peter Mather petitioned the Court for granting of guardianship “of Thomas Ewing, a person who by the visitation of God was born deaf and dumb. That by the death of Thomas Ewing of the said county an estate of some consequence has descended to the said Thomas Ewing the deaf and dumb person who is totally inadequate of looking after his affairs and that a proper person be appointed as guardian for the said Thomas Ewing.” Note says: “Peter Mather appointed.”

Court of Common Pleas Chester County, Pennsylvania, 25th March 1785
“Petition of Peter Mather in behalf of Thomas Ewing. Peter Mather 'guardian of Thomas Ewing the eldest son and heir at law of John Ewing deceased who was the Eldest Brother of Thomas Ewing late of Nottingham in the said county, deceased'. He also prays the court that Thomas Ewing, deceased, died intestate seized and possessed of a certain messauge or tenement plantation and tract of land leaving a widow Anne, but no issue ... and the tract of land descends on your petitioner's Ward the said Thomas Ewing and the said widow in the following manner: one moiety to the said widow and the other to the said Thomas Ewing, the said intestate's Heir at law.” It is marked ALLOWED (Note that a court accepted the noncupative will of Thomas Ewing as legal in 1783!) In the Sheriff's Deed Book Vol 1, CCA page 30 is the following:”High Sheriff ack. execution of a deed dated 1 March 1788 made to Wm. Allen of W. Nottingham tp. Co., of Cecil in Maryland for land in E. Nottingham twp. Chester; one containing 117 ½ acres and other 46a, the estate of Anne Ewing adm of Thomas Ewing seized and taken in execution of a suit of William and Jacob Haines adm. of John Gartrile decd.”

11. Mary Ewing-[13] ¹⁵ (John of Carnashannagh¹) was born in 1706 ^¹ and was christened on 20 Jan 1705/06 in Donegal, Ulster, Ireland.^¹⁵

Christening Notes: Burt Congregation register: 1705/6 January 20 John Ewing (Carnshannagh) had Mary [baptized].

1. Survey: 1748, Chester Co., PA.³² Survey B-53-50, Chester Co., PA West Nottingham twp. dated 30 Dec 1748, that was warranted on 19 Nov 1748 shows this land is adjacent to that of Samuel Ewing and Thomas Ewing brothers of Mary Ewing Collins. In 1755, it was purchased by the above Thomas Ewing at a Sheriff's sale having been forfeited by Thomas Collins (son of Mary Ewing and Joseph Collins). It is possible this family moved to Frederick Co., Va. as one John Collins attested to the nuncupative will of William Ewing there in 1781.

12. William Ewing-[14] (John of Carnashannagh¹) was born about 1711 ^¹ and died on 27 Dec 1781 ^¹ about age 70.

Birth Notes: His birth year is calculated based on his age of 70 years when he died in 1781. And, his family is assumed to have been living in Ireland at the time of his birth on the townland, Carnashannagh, in county Donegal.

Burial Notes: The stone, four pieces, for William has been located in the Ewing Cemetery near Stephens City, Frederick County, Virginia. Also the stone for his wife, Elizabeth, has been found. The stones says, from a photograph, she died May12, 1816, aged 86 years and he died Dec 2_, 1781. A small piece of the stone for William is still missing.

1. Children. Since William moved to the area in Virginia that became Frederick county, 1738, a year after he moved and he lived the remaining years of his life in Frederick county, it seems safe for us to assume that all of his children were born in Frederick County, Virginia.

2. Residence.¹ ³³ Removed from Chester Co., Pa. to near Winchester, Frederick Co. Virginia. Died there 27 Dec 1781, aged 70.

"William came to Pennsylvania in 1729, and in April 1737, William moved down from Pennsylvania just six years after settlement began. A letter from Chester County, Pennsylvania indicates William moved to Virginia in April 1737. [Frederick Co., p.14]

Lewis Stephens founded the town of Stephensburg which is now Stephens City. It was called Newtown for a time. The General Assembly in 1758 made Stephensburg the second town in the Valley, following Winchester in 1752. [Frederick Co., p. 16]

3. Cemetery.³⁴ The early Ewings are buried in the Ewing family cemetery located on the Julian Carbaugh farm near Stephens City. This property shown on the sketch on the next page was part of the original acreage of William Ewing, son of John, who arrived in the Shenandoah Valley in 1737.

4. Land.³⁵ In 1763, William Ewing purchased another 330 acres of land. Between January 29, 1762 and May 10, 1763 William Ewing (Ewen) had 386 acres adjacent William Reemy and John Painter on the "drain of Crooked Run" surveyed. During the same time he had 400 acres on Dry Run, a "draught of Shannandoah River," surveyed. This land was adjacent to George Bowman, Christian Plan, Robert Wharf, and Nicholas Perry. (Abstracts of Virginia's Northern Neck Warrants and Surveys Frederick County 1747-1780)

In the Abstracts of Virginia's Northern Neck land surveys Zebulon Tharp had "438 acres surveyed April 23, 1751 on Steven's Run, a branch of Crooked Run" that was adjacent to land of William Ewing. April 10, 1753, Zebulon Tharp had 420 acres "on Crooked Run on Shannandoah River" surveyed. This was adjacent his own line, William Ewins, and George Wright.

5. Will: 1782, Frederick Co., VA.³⁶ "In the County and Parcsch of Frederick 29th day of february in year 1773 ... I order my wife Elizabeth ... may [my] old Son John on [one] shilling and may wifes Son Jonthana Bakle on [one] shilling I order the land I now live on to be equally divided betwxt may [my] three Sons with all houses and tenement which is six hundred twenty four acers to William Robert Samuel may three daughters Elizabeth and Mary and Jannet and to them all the rest of my land to be equally divided ...." /s/ Willaim Ewing Teste John Collins
Recorded 1782 June 4th ... granted Eliz^a the widow & Jno. Ewing they have^g comp. Law.
[Comment: The date is given as February 29, 1773 and, since 1773 is not a leap year, it appears there is an error in the date.]

William married Elizabeth Tharp-[36] [MRIN: 9], daughter of Zebulon Tharp-[2017] and Jane-[2018], est 1753. Elizabeth was born about 1730 and died on 17 May 1816 in Frederick Co., VA ^³⁷ about age 86.

Marriage Notes: The married year of 1753 is based on the birth of the first child.

Burial Notes: Elizabeth is buried in the Ewing Cemetery, near Stephens City, Va., and her marker has been found with a death date of May 17, 1816, aged 86 years.

1. Marriage.³⁵ "Elizabeth Tharp's first husband is believed to have been Jonathan Bakle; her son, Jonathan Bakle, is mentioned in William's will which was written in 1773 eight years before his death December 27, 1781 at 70 years of age."

2. Will: 2 Sep 1816, Frederick Co., VA.³⁹ Frederick County, Virginia Wills shows probate of Will of Elizabeth Ewing written 20 July 1795 "a surveyor to be hired to divide land equally and pay balance of William Ewing estate due to Thomas and Jany Ewing ... Samuel, son, executor."

Birth Notes: "My fifth great grandfather born 1648 near Londonderry, Ireland came to Chester Co., Penna. in 1729, along with a large family. One of the family was my fourth great grandfather Samuel Ewing born 1719 Ireland, died 1807 Mercer Co., Ky. He married Margaret McMichael in 1746. She was one of the five children of Malcolm McMichael who came from Ireland in 1746 and settled along Octorora Creek, Chester Co., Penna - probably along side of John Ewing." [Letter to Jim McMichael from John Ewing Organ, dated 12 Oct 1973.]

His family is assumed to be living in Ireland, his place of birth is probably county Donegal.

Burial Notes: Ewing family cemetery located on the Julian Carbaugh farm near Stephens City. The stone for Samuel indicates he died on Aug 24, 1798, aged 80 years, making him born about 1718 The extract from the Confession of Faith book shows the date of death as August 26 - 1798

1. Name. Somewhere someone added a B. as an idication of his middle name. But, the majority of the information does not include a "B". I do not think Samuel has a middle name. [Jim McMichael]

2. Residence: : Pa., Va., & Ky..¹ ²¹ Removed from Chester County Pa. to Frederick County, Virginia, thence to Kentucky, where he died 24 August 1798. Samuel had four children that died as infants. [The the information below from the Epler book indicates that the children of Samuel went to Kentucky. And, the tombstone found in the restoration of the Ewing Cemetery in Frederick County, Virginia would indicate that Samuel died and was buried in Frederick County.]

Samuel Ewing of Lancaster, Pennsylvania, later was living in Chester county, Pennsylvania, thence removed to Frederick county, Virginia, near Winchester. The children of Samuel emigrated to Kentucky. They went in the fall, taking goods with them and supplies, and hid them. Then returned for their families. When they reached Kentucky in the spring, they found their goods had been destroyed, together with their corn and wheat. What grain they had with them they saved for seed, and had no bread until the crop was matured. The first bread was made of corn grated on a pan with nail hoes, by Mrs. McAfee, and all the relations were invited to dinner. The first bread they had for months. The Ewings and McAfees came to Bonesborough, Kentucky. [Epler, Oldwiler, Huckleberry, Carr and Ewing Families, page 125.] [Comment: the above says the children emigrated to Kentucky where the first comment above indicates Samuel died in Kentucky.]

Samuel married Margaret McMichael-[37] [MRIN: 10], daughter of Malcolm McMichael-[196] and Unknown, in 1744.²⁰

+ 29 F i. Anna Ewing-[38] ¹ was born about 1744 and died on 27 May 1837 in Greencastle, IN ^²⁰ about age 93.

30 M ii. Daniel Ewing-[41] ¹ was born about 1746 and died before Nov 1782 in Harbison Station, KY.^{¹ ⁵⁰}

1. Residence.⁵¹ Daniel immigrated in 1779 to Perryville, Kentucky. His brothers, William, Samuel and Thomas came together in the fall of 1788 landing at the falls of the Ohio, now Louisville, thence to Perryville where they located. Samuel brought with him his nephew John Ewing.

2. Family.⁵² He (Daniel) was a Lieutenant in the Revolutionary War. He was killed by Indians at Harbison Station (now Perryville, KY) but the date of his death has not been found ... his widow, Elizabeth, married Richard Hope on 20 November 1782.

Daniel was killed by the Indians at Harbison Station; he gave his horse to his father-in-law, Col. Harbison, to ride to the fort, while he tried to run, but was overtaken by the Indians and killed. [Epler, Oldwiler ... page 126]

+ 31 M iii. John Ewing-[40] ¹ was born in 1749 ^⁴⁹ and died in Jun 1775 in Pennsylvania at age 26.

+ 34 M vi. Samuel Ewing, Jr.-[47] ¹ ⁵³ was born in 1757 in West Nottingham, Chester county, PA ^⁵³ and died before Nov 1809 in Mercer county, KY.^⁵³

+ 35 M vii. William Ewing-[63] ¹ ⁵⁷ was born in 1761 in West Nottingham twp., Chester county, PA ^⁵⁷ and died on 11 Jan 1834 in Coles county, IL ^⁵⁷ at age 73.

Birth Notes: The birth is given as Feb 14, 1721. This date would have been written in the write-up after 1752, the year the calendar changed. Therefore, James could have been born 1720/21 or 1721/22. Also, he died in 1801 in Virginia.

Research Notes: Pocahontas county, Virginia or West Virginia are referred to many times in the three volumes James Ewing - Pioneer. A reader of this information needs to keep in mind the many changes in the county names.
1821 Pocahontas was organized as a county out of Bath county, Virginia.
1790 Bath county was organized as a county out of counties Augusta, Botetourt, Greenbrier.
1778 Greenbrier was organized as a county out of Montgomery county, Virginia.

1. Residence.⁵⁹ "The exact year of James Ewing's birth is not at present known, nor do we know exactly the year he came to America. He was the first American ancestor of our Ewing line. Grandfather Enoch Ewing never saw his Ewing grandparents. A few facts about them had been handed down to him and these he handed on down the line. He said that his grandfather James was born in the north of Kreland, but of Scotch parents, and that he came to Virginia when a young man and soon after married an Irish girl whose name he did not remember but whom he thought lived to a ripe old age. James had two boys and three girls...."

Marriage Notes: "The name of James wife is not known. It was once thought to be, and widely published as, Margaret Sergeant, but no one seems to know where that came from and there are no records to back it up. Most family historians discount it as fact today." History of Pocohontas County, West Virginia, page 279, reported in a paper by Anne Toohey, Library of Congress, April 11, 1996.

For an explanation of the above, see article in the February 2000 Journal of Clan Ewing "James Ewing of Pocahontas" and the information is incorrect.

+ 39 M ii. John "Indian John" Ewing-[172] ¹ was born on 27 Dec 1747 in Orange County, NC,^⁶¹ died on 23 Dec 1824 in Huntington Twp., Gallia Co., OH ^⁶¹ at age 76, and was buried in Vinton, Gallia Co., OH.^⁶¹

Marriage Notes: Married and moved to Kentucky. No further information found. ⁶⁰

Jane married Moses Moore-[441] ⁶¹ [MRIN: 162], son of Moses Moore-[1248] and Unknown, on 11 Apr 1786 in Augusta county, Virginia.⁶¹ Moses was born about 1740 ^⁶³ and died in 1812 ^⁶⁴ about age 72.

Marriage Notes: Married by Rev. Samuel Shannon "from whom she soon departed". Marriae bond filed at Staunton, Augusta County, Virginia. Some records state: Warm Springs, Bath Co., Virginia. ⁶⁰

Birth Notes: Augusta County records show they [Moses Moore and Jane/Susan Ewing] were married 11 April 1786, records of Rev. Samuel Shannon. I believe this was Moses Moore, Jr. who was born 8 Feb 1769. Moses Moore, Sr. is shown on the McAllister Lists with 44 acres on Ewing's/Knapp Creek in 1769.

Death Notes: Moses' will was made 9 June 1812, and was proved in September of that year.

1. Residence.⁶⁵ Moses, Jr. was 18 at the time his father died and in fact that very year [1758] had been taken prisoner by the Indians, to have experiences in captivity much the same as Indian John Ewing. Apparently he had no brothers, and when he returned to Ewing's Creek he took over the property of his father next to James Ewing.
