DISCLAIMER:
Caution!
The first four generations of
the following outline are
NOT YET CONFIRMED OR DOCUMENTED,
at least by
me. For now, I pass them on here ONLY as hearsay, speculation,
and allegation; however, now Rick Lemasters has sent me
a copy of the book
Benjamin Lemasters of Nicholas County, West Virginia: His Ancestry, His
War Record, His Descendants by Ronald V. Hardway, which
is
being quoted extensively on this page as I enter his data.
Hardway's book carries its own disclaimer, as follows:
PART III, Descendants of Benjamin Lemasters: This compendium of the descendants of
Benjamin Lemasters is not a genealogical study of the Lemasters
family. It is a list of descendants compiled from various
sources, many of which consist of family recollections not verified
through a search of official documents. Dozens of descendants of
Benjamin Lemasters have contributed to this catalogue, many of them
unintentionally. (page 45)
|
The book does seem to connect Charity with our Oceola, as Charity's
daughter Priscilla's oldest is listed there as "Ocie", though no
husband or family is listed for her. If
you
have further light to shed on this picture, please let me hear from
you!

M.
Gwin Note: Cousin Ed
Parks told me that there are three Isaac Lemasters and that no
agreement has been made among family members as to which of the three
(whether this husband of Nancy Scott or one of the other two) is in
fact the parent of our Benjamin who married Rebecca.]

Lemasters
Note: Born
in Maryland, he moved with his family to the Morgantown, WV, area. His
father was Isaac and mother was Nancy Anna Scott Lemasters. He joined
the Army and served at Fort McIntosh at Beaver, PA, west of
Pittsburgh.; moved to SC and married (1) Hannah Waddell who died abt
1788; married (2) Mary Waddell; and moved to Columbia, TN, where he
lived till his death in 1826. He's buried on what was recently called
the Pinkston Farm near College Grove, TN. I found his grave site with
the help of Mike Garrett who was the previous owner of the farm and a
Pinkston relative. I have posted this data on Findagrave.com

23.01--Elizabeth Lemasters, b. 1780; d. 1832; m. 1796 to James Robinson; 9 ch.
[John
M.
Gwin Note: Unless stated
otherwise, all the following material on James and Elizabeth Robinson's
descendants is copied directly from Hardway's book, pp. 46-50.]
Hello John,
The following info seems to be a match for the family group on your
webpage http://www.gwingenealogy.net/GENEALOGY/SURNAMES/lemasters.htm.
On the Nicholas Co WV Clerk's website, you can find the actual
documents: http://www.nicholascountywv.org/county-offices/countyclerk.aspx,
choose
the
blue text "Click here to search the indexes", then in the
upper-left corner click on the box "Sign in as a guest" ... you can
search by name, or choose the Book/Page tab.
Two list the children of James Robinson:
Book 1, Page 69 - James Robinson's Will
Book 3, Page 465 - Deed settling a land dispute
Named
in
those documents are:
Elizabeth, wife of James Robinson
son, John H Robinson
dau, Rebecca & her husband John M Hamilton
dau, Miriam L & her husband Anthony Rader
dau, Margaret "Peggy" & her husband David Perkins
dau, Cynthia & her husband Isaac Callison ... this differs from
your info.
dau, Agness & her husband Samuel Rader
dau, Elizabeth & her husband Abner Stephenson ... this differs from
your info.
All of Nicholas Co, WV.
While I'm still not sure who David Perkins' parents were, it appears
the children of David & Margaret (Robinson) Perkins were:
dau,
UNKNOWN
Perkins - b. abt 1826-1830
dau, Octavia Perkins m. Sinnett Rader
dau, Sarah Jane Perkins m. Alexander Bell
dau, Louiza Perkins - b. abt 1834
son, James R Perkins m. Joanna Nichols ... James was born abt 1837, and
depending on the census, he was born in VA/WV or OH.
David Perkins seems to have died between 1836-1840 ... he is named in
the 1836 land deed, and then his wife is on the 1840 census without him
& enumerated next to John H Robinson, her brother.
Margaret (Robinson) Perkins, born abt 1810, died sometime AFTER 17 Jun
1880 - this being the census date where she is living with her daughter
Octavia's family in Summersville, Nicholas Co, WV.
Hope that helps!
Any corrections or add'l information would be appreciated.
Kind regards,
Wendy

Hello,
my name is Alexander
Jones. I'm 21 and from Columbus Ohio. I found your site
(http://www.gwingenealogy.net/GENEALOGY/SURNAMES/lemasters.htm) while
looking up a distant relative of mine, named Benjamin
Lemasters. He's my great-grandmother's greatx4
grandfather, which is my great x5 grandfather (sorry, I get a little
confused when saying it).
Apparently John Garner
Stephenson, which is
my side of the family, married one of Benjamin's daughters. I thought
you'd like to know this so you can maybe add it to the known family, if
you want, and if not, it's good to say hi to distant relatives, even if
you just found out about them. If you have any questions, I can try to
answer them, but I'm just starting to piece together my genealogy,
sorry in advance.

a brother of Florence Elizabeth Givens, who married George Laban Parks,
who I expect is an ancestor of Ed Parks, though I don't have many
details of his branch, though my mother might. I met my mother's Aunt
Florence (Elizabeth Givens Parks) once in the late 1970s when we were
driving across country and stopped to say hello.
I have
considerable detail

I wonder if John Gwin
is
related to the pioneer Gwin family of Augusta (later Bath) County,
Virginia, where my Given(s) pioneer ancestors also lived in the
mid-late 1700s before migrating to what is now Kanawha, Nicholas, and
Braxton Counties, WV and then, after David Given's death, on to Kansas
and points further West about 1860.
My family will be
visiting
Bath and Highland Counties next month, with a possible side trip to
Nicholas and Braxton Counties.

My mother

Evelyn Cecilia Givens was a sister of Florence Elizabeth Givens, who
married George Laban Parks, who I expect is an ancestor of Ed Parks,
though I don't have many details of the Parks branch, though my mother
might. I recall meeting my mother's Aunt Florence (Elizabeth Givens
Parks) once in the late 1970s when we were driving across country and
stopped to say hello. I attach a photo that includes Florence Parks
(front left) and Evelyn Hansen (back, 2nd from left) taken after the
death of their father Oren Cecil Givens.

John,
I'm happy to hear from you, I thought you might have changed your
e-mail address since 1999. It just so happens that I have been
doing lots of work on this line of the Lemasters family recently,
primarily with Benjamin & Rebecca Ann Martin Lemasters who were
Charity's parents. Charity was one of 10 daughters born to
Benjamin and Rebecca who were prominent members of the Nicholas County
VA/WV community. Benjamin was a Revolutionary War veteran and member of
the 1st Virginia Regiment. There is a book written about
Benjamin's life and war service by Ronald Hardway, 1993.
I visited Benjamin and Rebecca's family cemetery last year and
documented each grave on findagrave.com, here is a link to page:
http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=cr&CRid=2177783&CScnty=3097&CSsr=61&
I also made a video which can be viewed at this link:

1An
Illinois
resident
has
asked
this newspaper to assist in the search for information concerning
the descendants of Abraham Lemaster, who arrived in St. Mary's County,
Maryland, 300 years ago. A descendant by the same name is buried in
Boonsboro in the rear of the Bast Furniture store. The grave has a
marker with this inscription upon it: "In memory of Abraham Lemaster,
born February 10, 1742, died May 13th, 1820. Aged 78 years, 3
months and 3 days. Stop Reader Stop Let Nature Claim a Tear. My aged
father lies buried here."
Howard M. Lemaster, of 412 College Ave., Carlinville, Illinois, writes
that he is desirous of learning more about the old timers of this
family, and where they are buried. The Abraham Lemaster who is buried
in Boonsboro had given this site for the erection of a church and a
burial ground. He was the first to be buried there in 1820, but the
church was never built, and no other burials at the site, writes Mr.
Lemaster.
"For each and every Lemaster grave identified and reported to me prior
to the above, I will give a book "Lemaster
Family,
U.S.A., 1960" or like value in cash," he writes.
"Maryland Colonial Records show that Capt. Abraham Lemaster secured 10
recruits for Revolutionary War service at Frederick. We think this may
be the one, and hope to prove. Any help will be greatly appreciated
from your readers."
2 The
late
Edward
Campbell
wrote
a brief "History of Nicholas
County's First Settlers" in 1883, and his work was printed
serially in the Nicholas
County
Chronical from May 16, 1912 to Aug. 8, 1912. A bound
volume of the Chronicle
of that year is in the State Department of Archives and History.
Campbell is the authority for most of the names, dates, and incidents
that follow in this article.
Peters Creek Settled
The first settlement in what is now Nicholas county was established on
Peters creek in 1791 by Henry Morris, Conrad Young, and Edward McClung.
Following the massacre of two of Morris' daughters by Indians in 1792,
the Morris, Young, and McClung families moved to the Kanawha valley.
Edward McClung sold his land on Peters creek to Edward Hughes and John
Campbell in 1792, and later in the same year, McClung was drowned in
the Kanawha river near Moles island. He was survived by his wife
and three children.
Edward McClung, jr., returned to Nicholas, married, and reared a family
in Kentucky magisterial district, where he died.
Edward McClung, jr.'s eldest sister married John Groves and reared a
family near Summersville. His youngest sister married John
Smithey of Lewisburg.
Hughes Fort Built
Thomas Hughes, a Revolutionary soldier from Prince William county, VA,
led a party of settlers from Muddy creek, Greenbrier county, in the
construction of a fort at the mouth of Hughes creek. Thomas Hughes died
in 1794, and his grave was near the fort.
The fort was in Kanawha county, but the Hughes and other families in
the group acquired land in what became Nicholas county.
William Bird from Bath county lived for awhile on Twenty Mile creek;
Jesse James from Bath county lived on Otter creek before moving to the
Elk river near Charleston. His wife was a daughter of Henry
Morris.
Conrad Young
married three times and had children by each wife.
Benjamin
Lemasters, who settled on Bucks Garden creek in 1798 or 1799,
served in the Continental Army five years. He married Rebecca Ann
Martin and had 10 daughters. Three daughters married into the
Boggs family; two married Raders; and one each a Robinson, Frame,
Givens, Stephenson,
and
Campbell. The daughter who married Joseph Rader in 1830 had a
daughter, Elvira, who married John D. Groves and became the mother of
Lola Groves and grandmother of Gov. Patteson.
First County Officials
The Nicholas county government was organized in April 1816 in John
Hamilton's home at Cross Lanes...Recommended for commissions in the
126th regiment of militia were...John G. Stephenson,
captain.
The county seat was established on the lands of Robert Hamilton.
On this 30-acre tract the town of Summersville was laid out in 1820.
The first trustees of the town were...John G. Stephenson.
3 Do you remember
That Morgantown, the site of West Virginia university, was settled in
1758 by Thomas Decker?
Later the land was acquired by Isaac Lemasters,
who
sold it to Zangwill Morgan in 1772 five years after Morgan had made
the first permanent settlement, and it is from him that the city gets
its name...

Subject: A RECENT LEMASTERS FIND
Last week Nancy and I visited my son Scott and his family who live just
south of Nashville, Tennessee, in Brentwood. This was our first
trip to the area. In my research I had run across a descendant
who had lived and died in that area after service during the
Revolutionary War and living and marrying in South Carolina. His
name is
Joseph Lemaster, and
his parents were
Isaac and Nancy Anna
Scott Lemasters who lived in the Morgantown, West Virginia,
area. Joseph was the brother of my gggg-grandfather Thomas and of
Benjamin, also a Revolutionary War veteran. I believe they were
the oldest three children of Isaac and Nancy. I was able find
Joseph's grave site with the help of the Internet and a previous owner
of the property where he is buried.
As you all know, often when you answer one question or make a
discovery, other questions are raised. Thus is the case with
finding Joseph's grave and monument. I was aware that both Joseph
and Benjamin enlisted in the Army in the Morgantown area and went off
to serve and both were promoted to the rank of Sergeant. Well,
according to Joseph's monument, he attained the rank of Major.
Another surprise is that according to his stone, he was born in 1748,
and not 1758 as stated in most research I've seen.
Here is a link to the findagrave.com page I created for Joseph:
http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&GScid=2275650&GRid=29714866&
I have other close-up photos of the stone if you would like to see them.

Hello, my name is Alexander Jones. I'm 21, and from Columbus Ohio. I
found your site
(http://www.gwingenealogy.net/GENEALOGY/SURNAMES/lemasters.htm) while
looking up a distant relative of mine, named Benjamin Lemasters. He's
my great grandmothers greatx4 grandfather, which is my great x5
grandfather (sorry, I get a little confused when saying it). Apparently
John Garner Stephenson, which is my side of the family, married one of
Benjamins daughters. I thought you'd like to know this so you can maybe
add it to the known family, if you want, and if not, it's good to say
hi to distant relatives, even if you just found out about them. If you
have any questions, I can try to answer them, but I'm just starting to
piece together my genealogy, sorry in advance.

Me
Evelyn Cecilia Givens was a sister of Florence Elizabeth Givens, who
married George Laban Parks, who I expect is an ancestor of Ed Parks,
though I don't have many details of the Parks branch, though my mother
might. I recall meeting my mother's Aunt Florence (Elizabeth Givens
Parks) once in the late 1970s when we were driving across country and
stopped to say hello. I attach a photo that includes Florence Parks
(front left) and Evelyn Hansen (back, 2nd from left) taken after the
death of their father Oren Cecil Givens.
I have considerable detail on my branch posted in my ancestry.com tree
"George Washington Givens".
I wonder if John Gwin is related to the pioneer Gwin family of Augusta
(later Bath) County, Virginia, where my Given(s) pioneer ancestors also
lived in the mid-late 1700s before migrating to what is now Kanawha,
Nicholas, and Braxton Counties, WV and then, after David Given's death,
on to Kansas and points further West about 1860.
My family visited Bath and Highland Counties this summer, finding many
items of genealogical interest at the historical societies there.

Hello John,
The following info seems to be a match for the family group on your
webpage http://www.gwingenealogy.net/GENEALOGY/SURNAMES/lemasters.htm.
On the Nicholas Co WV Clerk's website, you can find the actual
documents: http://www.nicholascountywv.org/county-offices/countyclerk.aspx,
choose
the blue text "Click here to search the indexes", then in the
upper-left corner click on the box "Sign in as a guest" ... you can
search by name, or choose the Book/Page tab.
Two list the children of James Robinson:
Book 1, Page 69 - James Robinson's Will
Book 3, Page 465 - Deed settling a land dispute
Named in those documents are:
Elizabeth, wife of James Robinson
son, John H Robinson
dau, Rebecca & her husband John M Hamilton
dau, Miriam L & her husband Anthony Rader
dau, Margaret "Peggy" & her husband David Perkins
dau, Cynthia & her husband Isaac Callison ... this differs from
your info.
dau, Agness & her husband Samuel Rader
dau, Elizabeth & her husband Abner Stephenson ... this differs from
your info.
All of Nicholas Co, WV.
While I'm still not sure who David Perkins' parents were, it appears
the children of David & Margaret (Robinson) Perkins were:
dau, UNKNOWN Perkins - b. abt
1826-1830
dau, Octavia Perkins m. Sinnett Rader
dau, Sarah Jane Perkins m. Alexander Bell
dau, Louiza Perkins - b. abt 1834
son, James R Perkins m. Joanna Nichols ... James was born abt 1837, and
depending on the census, he was born in VA/WV or OH.
David Perkins seems to have died between 1836-1840 ... he is named in
the 1836 land deed, and then his wife is on the 1840 census without him
& enumerated next to John H Robinson, her brother.
Margaret (Robinson) Perkins, born abt 1810, died sometime AFTER 17 Jun
1880 - this being the census date where she is living with her daughter
Octavia's family in Summersville, Nicholas Co, WV.
Hope that helps!
Any corrections or add'l information would be appreciated.
Kind regards,
Wendy
