    Notes:

    Russell Co., KY Marriages, 1826-1865 - Gaar-Guy
    Grider, Welkerson to Sarah Stapp. May 14, 1844. Married by Wm. H.H.Abshere. 1-28.




    Sarah "Sally" Medaris (6) (Rice 5) b. abt 1789 in NC., d.1869 in Russell, Kent. Married James Grider born 9/5/1783 in Burke, Co. NC. James was the brother to Barbara Grider who married Sarah's brother Charles.
    (James' grandmother, Sarah Morgan, was a first cousin of Daniel Boone's. Sarah Morgan's father was John Morgan. His sister, also named Sarah Morgan, was Daniel's mother.)
    They had the following children:
    Hamilton Grider (7) b. 1805 in Ky. married Sally Bailey on 6/22/1825d. in Vermillion, Ill. They died before 1854 as proved by an Adair Co.KY court order dated 5 June 1854 in which Elzy Bailey was appointed guardian of [seven children] infant heirs of Hamilton Grider, deceased.
    Wesley Grider (7) b. 1809, married Lucy Holt on 10/11/1828
    Betsy Grider (7) b. 1812, married Alfred Grider on 4/11/1829 in Adair, Ky.
    Sallie Grider (7) b. 1813, d. 1875, married David Bryant on 1/14/1834
    Wilkerson Grider (7) b. 1 Jan 1815, d. 1868, married (1) Sally Holt,(2) Sarah Stapp 18 May 1844 Russell Co. KY
    William Grider (7) married Isabell Bailey in Russell Ky. on 7/28/1836.There is question of William's middle name as Preston.
    John F. Grider (7) b. 1823, in Russell Ky. d. 2 May 1852, married ????Pescoe. There is discussion among the Grider descendants as to whether John is truly a son of James and Sarah.
    One researcher states: John F. Grider is not the son of James and Sarah. I have in my possession copies of papers from Henderson Co. TN stating that Silas Grider was appointed guardian of Sarah F. Grider,dau. of John F. Grider of Henderson Co. KY. Kentucky Vital Statistics show that John F. Grider died in 1852 of measles. In his household in 1850 Henderson C. KY census are Pekoe children.
    Another points out: (That researcher) is basing her claim on the fact that guardian bonds at the Henderson county court house show Silas as guardian to Sarah Ann Grider, minor child of John F. Grider. However,the bonds do not state that John F. was a son of Silas. I would guess that John giving guardianship of his daughter to Silas could indicate that he was John' s father, but it is not definite proof. I'm not saying (the other) is wrong; I just think more proof is needed. However, knowing (this researchers) background, I know she is very good at this stuff, and I wouldn't necessarily want to bet against her theory. I guess each individual will have to decide for his or her self.
    As my main concern is this site, I will leave the Grider debate up to the Grider descendants . Hopefully we will be updated if this issue is resolved.
    Rachel Grider (7) b. 4 Jan 1824, d. 30 Dec 1914. married Michael GreenMcKinley on 2/25/1845 .
    Anna Grider (7) b. 1826, d. 1910, married John Pearce on 2/7/1853.
    Lucinda Grider (7) b. 1828, d. 1864, married Charles McKinley

    Slaying of the Halbert McClure Family
    By Emory L. Hamilton

    From the unpublished manuscript,
    Indian Atrocities Along the Clinch, Powell and
    Holston Rivers, pages 111-113.

    On the 20th of September, 1782, Colonel
    Arthur Campbell wrote to Colonel William Davies
    (1), saying:
    On the 11th instant a party of Northward
    Indians penetrated as far in this county as the
    settlements on the head of Moccasin Creek, which
    is within ten or twelve miles of Abingdon, attacked
    a family of fourteen in number, (of course secured
    in the interior part), killed the husband on the
    spot, captivated the wife and six (6) of the
    children, three of whom, after being a short space
    in the enemies hands, was most inhumanely
    murdered. One, a young woman, so long survived
    the blows as told the tragic tale. Two made their
    escape the first day and night. The old woman and
    one child, with a considerable booty in horses,
    household goods, etc., was carried forward three
    days, some distance down the Sandy River.
    When part of our duty, with a
    perseverance in purpose, through a most rugged
    and difficult way that does them honor, overtook
    the Indians and wounded several of them;
    recovered unhurt, the two remaining captives,
    with the Indian's baggage and plunder they had
    taken.
    Just seven days before the above letter was
    written, Campbell, had on the 13th of September,
    1782, written to Col. Preston thusly: (2)
    By a few lines received from Major
    Dysart, (3) I am informed that the Indians have
    murdered Halbert McClure's family, near our
    Courthouse, and some other persons, the number
    there unknown.
    Captain John Carr, who was born on
    Carr's Creek in Russell Co., VA, September 6,
    1773, and once lived as a boy on Moccasin Creek,
    wrote to Dr. Lyman C. Draper, in 1854 from
    Sumner Co., TN (4) saying:
    ...After that time (1776) my father moved
    near the head of Moccasin Creek. The Indians
    came and killed part of a family and carried off
    others as prisoners. This family lived within about
    two miles of my father. Their names were
    McClure. Sally, the oldest daughter was to be
    married the next day after the attack was made by
    the Indians. The father McClure was killed, also
    a son of his by the name of Moses, and Katherine,
    a grown girl, and John McClure, his oldest son
    was wounded, but afterwards recovered.
    Sally McClure made her escape from the
    Indians the first night. She met the party who were
    in pursuit of the Indians, as might be expected,
    her intended husband was among them. His name
    was Kincaid, who married her shortly after her
    return.
    James Oxer, who once lived on the Clinch,
    filed a Revolutinary War pension claim as the only
    living heir of his father, George Oxer, who was an
    Indian spy on the Clinch and who died in
    Montgomery Co., KY, in October 1809. In the
    claim filed in Warren Co., Indiana, in 1858, he
    states:
    That his father served on the Clinch and
    was married to Dorcas Shelby (Shelley) who died
    in Kentucky in 1824; that his father was in a
    skirmish with the Indians in which Captain
    (Alexander) Barnett (5) recaptured the McClure
    family of Virginia, and placed them in the care of
    his father George Oxer.
    Joseph Smathers who once lived in this
    vicinity before emigrating to Kentucky, tells a very
    confused version of this incident to the Rev. John
    D. Shane, (6) in which he says:
    McClure's lived at the head of Little
    Moccasin Gap. McClure's cabin had a wooden
    chimney (7) on it. They (Indians) had gotten
    between the chimney and cabin. They had learned
    to say the old man's grace. (Perhaps a table grace
    or prayer they overheard). His daughter was to
    have been married in a few days. He (the father
    McClure) came and fell on his knee and begged
    them to desist and was shot dead. They
    tomahawked and scalped a daughter and tread on
    her, and left her for dead, but she came to and
    lived. Two other daughters were taken off. One
    was the bride. They taunted her about her groom
    and mocked the grace the old man said. There
    never was half as much mischief done (by Indians)
    on Holston as on Clinch.
    Halbert McClure had settled in 1773, near
    the head of Moccasin Creek in Washington Co., in
    Rich Valley, on a 400 acre tract of land opposite
    and a little east of Cabin Creek Ford and Bromley
    Gap on the southside of the North fork of Holston
    River. He assigned this tract of land to John
    Kinkead in 1781. (8) He was one of the appraisers
    of the estate of Benjamin Estill on April 17, 1782,
    and was a Juror in Botetourt Co., at a court on 15th
    of May, 1771.

    Route U. S. 11, at Book Hall (still standing). He
    died in Rockcastle Co., KY, in 1831. Was one of
    the Long Hunters and also at the Battle of Kings
    Mountain where he commanded a company

    Co., VA.

    was laid up of sticks of wood, pen fashion and
    daubed with clay. They were called "stick and clay
    chimneys".
