    Notes:

    Augusta Co. VA Records
    Chalkley
    Page 411.--13th August, 1771. John Berry's estate appraised by Joseph Culton, John Walker, John Stewart--Bonds of Hugh and Francis McClung; Wm. McGaughey, not solvent; Robert Farice, not solvent; Peter Cutwright, solvent; Robt. Buchanan, solvent.

    The earliest note for Hugh was that he went with two brothers, James and William to Augusta County, Virginia. They settled in the Timber Ridge community which was later incorporated into Rockbridge County. Apparently Hugh, with some sons, moved over the mountains into an area that later became Tennessee after being the State of Franklin in 1784-5 with John Sevier as governor. Congress debated this petition and then turned it down. Tennessee did not become a state until 1790. It was during the time that the settlers considered themselves as part of the State of Franklin, that Hugh wrote his will. It is interesting that the will is now on file in Greene County, TN.

    Hugh and John were listed in the 1783 tax list for Greene County. This consecutive listing gave Robt Campbell, James Kerr, Jno McClung, Hugh McClung, Jno. Mitchell, and Wm. Wilson. Both Hugh and John were taxed for 200 acres.

    By 1 Nov 1786, Hugh purchased 800 acres in Greene Co.: north side of Tennessee River below the mouth of the Highwassa (sic) River for 10 pounds per 100 acres.

    Hugh, Sr. wrote his will just as he was acquiring land. The land was listed in the N.C. Land Grants. It was applied for several years before the grant was finalized. We know this because in 1783 John Hacket purchased 253 acres "being the second small bottom before McClung's 800 acre entry". Hugh's entry wasn't registered until 1786. At any rate, Hugh may have been making his will, not because he was in ill health but as a precaution as the owner of this large tract of land. The land records in Greene County, TN need to be searched to ascertain the disposition of this land. It was willed to the grandson, John Gibson. We do not know the reason for this but the record would need to be tracked through John Gibson.


    Hugh McClung's will is on record in Greene County Tennessee for 21 Oct 1786. He registered it in the State of Franklin which was never recognized by Congress. In it he names his wife, Elizabeth, a son, whose name could not be read with certainty, and three daughters: Sarah, Elizabeth, and Susannah. He also names a grandson, John Gibson. The executors of the estate were wife, Elizabeth and Alexander Wilson. Witnessed by Andrew Martin, Alexander Wilson and John Wilson.

    Hugh married Elizabeth. [Group Sheet]

    Notes:

    James McClung was one of the Early Settlers of Augusta Co. VA.

    He moved to the "Borden Grant" in Augusta (now Rockbridge) county, VA and settled on a farm on the east bank of South River, three miles east of Fairfield. He erected his home in a narrow glen between the river and the mountain and about midway between the Little Mary and Big Mary Creeks. The original house was burned but his neighbors assembled and built another for him and had it ready for occupancy within a week. This building, "Mary Glenn" is still standing.

    James McClung was a soldier in the Revolutionary War, and for his services received grants of land in Kanawha County, VA (now WV) and in Kentucky.

    James married Ann Gray and they had fourteen children. His will is on record in Lexington, VA.

    Notes:

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ephraim_McDowell

    Ephraim McDowell received his early education at the classical seminary of Worley and James, then spent three years as a medical student under Dr. Alexander Humphreys in Staunton, Virginia. He attended lectures in medicine at the University of Edinburgh, Scotland, from 1793 to 1794 and studied privately with John Bell. He never received a diploma, but in 1825, the University of Maryland conferred on him an honorary M.D. degree.

    In 1795, he returned from Scotland, settled in Danville, Kentucky and began his practice as a surgeon. Dr. McDowell played a prominent role in his community. He was a founder of Trinity Episcopal Church in Danville, donating the land for its first building. He was also a founder and original corporator of Centre College in Danville. Dr. McDowell became a member of the Philadelphia Medical Society in 1817.

    One of his most famous patients was James K. Polk, for whom he removed a urinary stone and repaired a hernia. In 1809 he removed a 22.5 pound ovarian tumor from Jane Todd Crawford. This was the first successful removal of an ovarian tumor in the world. It was done before anesthesia and antiseptics. The operation took 25 minutes to perform. Mrs. Crawford returned to her home in Green County 25 days after the operation and lived another 32 years.

    All attempts at abdominal exploration before 1809 had resulted in peritonitis and death. So, understanding the procedures taken by Dr. McDowell is important. Descriptions of McDowell include phrases like "neat and clean" or "scrupulously clean." He was not only neat, but meticulous.

    In 1879, a monument in his honor was erected by the Medical Society of Kentucky in Danville. In 1929, Isaac Wolfe Bernheim donated a bronze statue of McDowell by Charles Henry Niehaus to the state of Kentucky for placement in the U.S. Capitol's National Statuary Hall Collection. In 1959, a United States stamp was issued in his honor. Dr. McDowell's house, office, and apothecary in Danville are preserved as a museum and are designated a National Historic Landmark. Ephraim McDowell Regional Medical Center in Danville is named in his honor.

    The McClung Family Association Web Site: http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~rootsr/PA-Wm.htm

    He was a teamster in Washington's army during the Revolutionary War. The following incident is told of his army experiences: "On a certain occation he was driving an army wagon containing some empty barrels. The road being very rough, the barrels made a rumbling noise. The British army, encamped not far away, heard the noice and supposing it to be the drums of the American troops, called for a line of battle and made ready for a fight."

    He moved from Rockbridge County, VA to Wilkes Co. Georgia in 1787. He was a farmer. The following church certificate was given him by the session of the Presbyterian church at Timber Ridge, Rockbridge Co., VA:

    "That the bearer, William McClung, was a single young man when he left this society the 15th of May, 1787, and from his childhood behaved without blame or reproach, was admitted to full communion with the church and left us free from any imputation that would expose him to public shame or the censures of the church, is certified at Timber Ridge Sept. 2nd, 1788.

    By: John Lyle, William Walker, John McClung, Elders."

    William McClung owned a farm of 391 acres in Wilkes County, Georgia on Upton's Creek. See: Deed Index in Wilkes County. He also owned a farm of 213 acres in Greene County, GA. on Richland Creek. The Deed Index may show this purchase in 1797.

    William moved his family to Blount County, Tennessee about 1806. The following church certficate was given William McClung upon his departure from Wilkes County, GA:

    "Smyrna, GA: 13 Jan 1806: That the bearer, William McClung, an elder, and Euphemia, his wife, have lived in this congregation a number of years past and behaved in a sober, Christian manner--are in the communion of the church and leave us with unimpeachable character, is certified by the pastor: Fras. Cummins."

    The first year they lived on the Houston farm, on Nine Mile Creek, eight miles southwest of Maryville, TN. The next year he entered a 300 acre farm on Baker's Creek, Blount (now Loudon) County, adjoining the present village of Greenback, TN. About the year 1810, he built a large brick house, in which he dwelt the remainder of his life. He was an Elder in the Baker's Creek Presbyterian Church for probably thirty years.

    he following pen picture of him was furnished by William Craig, whoknew him intimately for twenty-five years: "William McClung was tall, slender, raw-boned, about six feet high; slightly stoopt in his old age. In his prime he stood erect. He had rather narrow shoulders; head medium size; hair gray and mediumlength, beard heavy; upper lip cleanshaven, according to the custom in his day; eye-brows rather heavy; nose medium size; cheek bones prominent; eyes dark gray, sharp and piercing; face lean. He was a man of good sense, lively, and full of fun; joking with the neighbors, and servants in his employ. He was a very religious man."

    He seems to have been a man of fair education. The only civil office he ever held so far as known was that of Justice of the Peace. His Will is recorded in Blount County, TN. While carrying a basket of corn to feed his hogs, he stepped on a corncob, fell, and dislocated his hip, which accident hastened his death. He was buried in the family grave-yard about two furlongs south of the house. He died 14 Feb 1837 in his 70th year.
