Harless, Albert Newton (I74)
 
60 Jacob Albert Hill was the firstborn son of Elisha Hill and Elizabeth (Souter) Hill of Newberry South Carolina. Their second son, William Langdon Hill, was born in 1822. When Elisha married Elizabeth, she was a widow with four children;Andrew, Adam, Nancy and Betsy Zuber. Elisha died at 29 years of age in 1824 but left the family well-off financially. Jacob was ordained as a Baptist minister and preached at Enoree Baptist Church. He married Elizabeth Chapman in 1841. He and his wife moved to Tuscaloosa, Alabama in the 1850s and he was elected as a State Representative in 1861. He favored secession from the Union and two of his sons, Andrew Malone and John Paul Hill, served with the Confederate Army, while he remained as a Captain of the Home Guard in Tuscaloosa. John Paul Hill was killed at the age of 20 in the battle of Franklin,TN in 1864 and is buried there. After the war was lost he moved his family to East Texas where he was the Pastor of Daily Baptist Church near present-day Grapeland, Texas.
Their children were Andrew Malone, born 1842 and married Emma Barbour; John Paul born 1844 and killed in action during the Civil War in 1864; Mary Elizabeth born 1847 and married A. T. Farrar; James Albert born 1852 and married Emma Catherine (Miltia) Dailey; Nancy Furman born 1855 and married George P. Isbell; Ellen Rocenda (Nellie) born 1859 and married Tom S. Kent; Daniel Chapman born 1862 and married Alma Amerial Hill; Ann Alberta born 1866 and married Harrell Tatum. Of these children only two remained in Houston County- James Albert Hill and Ellen Rocenda (Nellie) Hill. Ellen Rocenda (Nellie) married Tom S. Kent of Reynard. Most of his family, including his brother and his wife and children stayed in East Texas, around Crockett. He returned to the Carolinas after his wife died in 1886. She is buried in Houston County, Texas. 
Hill, Jacob Albert (I101)
 
61 Jorial was named after his uncle, Richard Barnett's brother - Joseph Royal Barnett, a prominent SC Baptist minister who served in the Rev War

In 1850 Census, Cherokee County, Rusk TX, he listed birthplace as TN.

In 1860 Census (same location), he listed birthplace as AL. May be error or
may have lived in AL when it was just a territory near TN (AL became state
1819, TN in 1796) This area in Alabama (extending into what is now northeastern Mississippi) was part of Chickasaw Indian Territory.

Moved to MS between 1836 & 1838.
I assume he went to join George Barnett and Samuel W Barnett, because they also received Land Grants (Samuel on 8/14/1838 and George on 8/14/1844) George is listed in the 1836 tax rolls, but Jorial is not. Jorial is however in the 1838 tax roll.

I found a note of Indenture between George Barnett and Jorial Barnett dated 1838. Collateral which was held by George included a 9 yr old bay mare, 3 cows & their calves, a feather bed & bed clothing and 50 bushels of corn. It sounds like he was preparing to leave the area, based on what he surrendered to George.

I have a copy of a land grant in Itawamba County, MS to Jorial dated 1844. This was land taken from the Chickasaw Indians before their removal to Indian lands in Oklahoma (~1836-1838)

I have located the land included in the Land Grant. The address is 216-224 Warren Chapel Rd, Mantachie, MS 38855, USA. Longitude 34.36738599624704, Latitude -88.48480939865112. The area is now solid woods with a small damed lake in the middle. There are no visible structures in the satelite photo.

Moved to TX between 1844 & 1847... WHY? over 500 miles!!

Moved from Cherokee County (Rusk) to Brazos County (Bryan), TX

Wife died 1858 (in childbirth?)

Remarried 1858.

Moved to Bryan 1859-1863

After 1880 Census, no records of Jorial & Rachel

64 Mattie and her son Oma lived with Mattie's daughter Elizabeth and Elizabeth's husband Robert Vaughan. Craig, Mattie Lou (I181)
 
65 Mattie is listed as Martha and Mattie is common nickname of the day for Martha. I am not totally certain this is the same person although it is the only possible match I have been able to find to Mattie in 1870 or 1880 census for Colbert County.

NOTE- There is a discrepancy on place of birth for parents William and Elisabeth. This census shows North Calrolina, but 1900 census when she is in Keeton family shows Alabama, which may be wrong report to census taker. 
Craig, Mattie Lou (I181)
 
66 May be son of Jacob Shook? Shook, William Lafayette (I114)
 
67 Moved to North Carolina by 1763. Purchased 250 acres on Lyles Creek,North Carolina 14, December 1778. They were members of St Paul's LutheranChurch.

The story of how the Shook, Volpreght, Eigner and Yount families came toNorth Carolina was a common one. Land had become scarce in Pennsylvania,and more and more expensive. After the Indians were finally held at bayby the English victories in the French and Indian War which ending in1763 many of the settlers of the east coast began to imagine the moreopen territories nad opportunities to the west and south of Pennsylvania.By 1765, a wave of emigrants had befun to move down the trail known asthe Great Wagon Road. Many of these were the sons of the originalimmigrants. This "road", more like a network of rough trails than ahighway in those days stretched from Pennsylvania to the newly openedreaches of the frontier along the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountainsin the Carolinas and Georgia. Here the governors of those states hoped tobuild a buffer of settlers against any future incursions of the NativeAmericans, and to do so offered land at spectacularly low prices and oneasy terms to those willing to move with their families to the frontier.

"Hans" Schuck and his wife must have found the promise of this enticing,so sometime in the mid to late 1760s they and thier big family joinedwith his sister's families, the Eigners and the Volpredghts to travel tothese lands. In his 1767 will their father was fair with his childrenwith the exception of Rosina Barbara to whom he left one shilling if sheclaimed it. Apparently he was peeved at her.

In the fashion of such pioneers of the time they probably left walking,with a small two wheeled cart pulled by a pair of oxen carrying preciousfew possessions. From Philadelphia westward to Wright's Ferry on theSusquehanna then southward down the Cumberland Valey to cross the PotomacRiver at William's Ferry (Williamsport MD), then into Virginia theytraveled. From there the pioneers traveled down the Shenandoah Valleypast Winchester, a smallfrontier outpost and on through the previouslysettled Irish settlements of Augusta Co. At the present sight of Roanoke,VA at the intersection with the Chiswel Road to Kentucky the familiesturned to the southeast and traveled along the Roanoke River then over tothe Dan near modern Danville, VA.

The Wagon Road led them into North Carolina and on to the friendlyGermanic colony of the Moravians at Wachovia (now Winston-Salem NC).Moving on across the Yadkin they were now in the area of the "new lands".While some travelers went on to the frontiers further south this groupdetermined to leave the road here and move upriver at the Catawba towardthe foot of the Blue Ridge. Here they took up land on Lyle's Creek, northof today's Conover, NC and settled.

Here on Lyle's Creek the Schucks, Eigners and Volpreghts (Fulbright) andYounts found "elbow room" and they freedom to raise their large familiesas they saw fit. They were members of the St. Paul's Lutheran Church,then know as South Fork, and later were founders of Bethel LutheranChurch in today's northern Catawba County.

78 Revolutionary War veteran;

Jacob Shook The life and legacy of an Appalachian pioneer By MichaelBeadle
"According to family records, Jacob Shook was born on April 19, 1749, thefirst son out of nine children. His ancestors were German Lutherans whofled religious persecution from French Catholics in the 18th Century.Many of these German refugees fled to Holland, then to England and thento Pennsylvania
Jacob Shook ? also known as ?Schuck? or ?Shuck,? but Anglicized as?Shook? by British census takers ? grew up in the Piedmont region ofNorth Carolina around what is now Salisbury, according to the Shookfamily history?s Web site.
When the Revolutionary War broke out, Jacob and his brother Andrew joinedup with a Patriot regiment. The Colonial Army received reports that theBritish were trying to incite Cherokees to attack Colonials from thewest. If Indian tribes pushed in from the west and the British came infrom the east, Patriot forces would get squeezed in the middle.
After the war, according to family records, Shook served on a few juriesagainst Tory supporters who had sided with the British during theRevolutionary War. In 1786, there?s a record of a marriage between JacobShook and Isabella Weitzel. Jacob would have been around 37 years old atthe time ? the same age as his wife ? a late marriage for both even bytoday?s standards. Just after that, family records state that Jacob andhis new wife settled in what is now present-day Clyde along the PigeonRiver. During the Rutherford Trace expedition, Shook most likely passedthrough Haywood County along the Pigeon River, so there?s reason tobelieve he remembered the area and went to stake his claim there.
Sometime around 1795, Shook built a three-story cabin dedicated to hisson Peter, who was only 5 years old at the time. We know this house todayas the Shook-Smathers House in Clyde.
It is widely known that the Shook House hosted regular worship servicesand singing and music lessons in the third-floor attic before a churchwas built nearby. Shook donated land adjacent to his home to be the siteof revival camp meetings and also set aside land for the Louisa ChapelUnited Methodist Church and Pleasant Hill Cemetery in Clyde.
With all that Jacob Shook did for the area, one wonders why the Town ofClyde isn?t called ?Shookville.?
Jacob Shook died Sept. 1, 1839 and was buried along with his wife,Isabella, in Pleasant Hill Cemetery, a short drive from theShook-Smathers House."

During the Revolutionary War, Jacob served as a private for threeperiods: from March 1770 with Captain William Bateman and ColonelChristopher Bateman; August 1776 with Captain Rudolf Conrad and ColonelChristopher Bateman; and May 1781 with Captain Daniel Smith and ColonelChristopher Bateman. He enlisted in Lincoln County, North Carolina. Afterthe war, he married and about 1786 moved to Haywood County, settling onPigeon River. He built the first frame house in Haywood County, a sturdystructure with nails which he made by hand. Bishop Asbury, the first ofthe rank to be consecrated in America, in some of this trips throughwestern North Carolina held meetings in the chapel room that Jacob hadfitted up in the third story for divine services. The first Methodistchurch in Haywood County was organized in that room.
At the age of 84 on October 3, 1833, Jacob was granted a pension. Hisresidence was near the town of Clyde, Haywood County, North Carolina. Hisname is inscribed with that of all Revolutionary soldiered buried inHaywood County on a monument erected by The Dorcas Bell Love Chapter ofthe Daughters of the American Revolution in the courthouse square atWaynesville, the county seat of Haywood ounty.
His will is on record in Waynesville. He made disposition of his estate,naming his wife, Isabella and his children.
