562 Moved to the Shenandoah Valley in 1736 and lived on 828 acres in Crooked Run, Va.-- Jobe's Journal

Was disowned in October 1769 by the Hopewell Friends [History, p. 489?], for having "married contrary to discipline." He also "had trouble with drinking to excess. He was charged with this offense in 1760, and would have appeared to have make his peace with the Society only to be disowned again in 1769. But the Hopewell history gives the impression that Robert Jr. died a Quaker, for he signed later marriage records" -- Dee Ann (Shipp) Buck

"Robert McKay, Jr. lived on a tract of 828 acres of land on both sides of Crooked Run in what is now Frederick and Warren Counties, which he held by a Crown patent bearing date October 3, 1734. He was closely associated with Friends of Hopewell and Crooked Run meetings all his life and devoted to the interests of our society. Meetings were held at his house, and the Journal of John Fothergill records that on the 15th of the 9th month, 1736, John Fothergill went 'from Alexander Rousse's to a meeting the following day near Shenando River held at Robert McKay's the Younger--pretty open and comfortable.'" -- -- Hopewell Friends History, p. 187

Robert McKay, Jr, known as "Robert, the Younger" received a grant of 828 acres on both sides of Crooked Run made to him on Oct 3, 1734 by the Council of Virginia and signed under the hand of William Gooch, Governor. A number of grants were made the same day, mostly to Quakers. The grants were in narrow strips along the river front and on the navigable streams. Robert McKay left no will [at least no known will]; consequently it is impossible to compile a complete list of his children.
McKays were millers and farmers. Their mills turned out flour which was shipped to Harper's Ferry and from there to the big market in Alexandria. Robert, Jr's house was built of log and stone and is the oldest house in Warren County. It stands on the west side of highway 522. At the foot of the hill is the McKay spring, source of mill power and drinking water. The house faces south away from the highway toward what was called the chapel road, a trail leading from the McKay settlement to the McKay Chapel whose location has not been determined. The owners of the house have worked on restoring it. They have uncovered and repaired the great stone cooking fireplace whose mantel is an 18 inch beam running the entire 6 foot length of the fireplace. The original section is built from huge logs and consisted of one room downstairs and one up. The stone section, with its stone kitchen were presumably added later. -- Rebecca H. Good.

"Mrs McLeod united with the Emerson Baptist Church of Marion County at fifteen years of age. Since that time wherever she lived, she always moved her membership to become an active, faithful member of the church. At Independence, she was a member of the Convention Sunday School class, had taught in the Junior department of the Sunday School, was an active member of the Women's Missionary Society. Her hobbies were sewing and raising flowers.
"For many years in LaGrange she belonged to the Tau Alpha literary club. She was also house-mother of the boy's dormitory of La Grange College for three years, following the death of her younger son, Lloyd, who drowned at twenty-three years of age.
"Surviving are: her husband ad daughter, Mrs. H.M. (Elizabeth) Hunt of the home, a son, Leland S. McLeod, of Cleveland, Ohio; five grandchildren, seven great grandchildren, and many other relatives.

566 MRS. TAYLOR, 87 DIES IN PALMYRA--Came from Virginia 69 years ago--Palmyra Spectator, Nov 29 1945

"She was the daughter of the late Reuben and Elizabeth Compton Triplett, and was born September 11, 1858, in Virginia. In 1876 she came to Missouri to visit with an aunt and uncle, and liked it so well, decided to stay [sic.]. She was married to Mr. Taylor in 1880 and for many years has resided on a farm in Fabius township. He died about 14 years ago.

574 Name spelt Pel or Pell

Baptized September 1, 1700 -- New York Genealogical and Biographical Record, Vol. II, p. 269

Alma Cramer gives her husband's name as John (Johannes) Vreeland????? with the same marriage date and cites New York Genealogical and Biographical Record, Vol. IX, p. 10. This is the same date as the marriage to Meijer. Since the bride is only 19, it is unlikely that this was a second marriage.

Myra Compton Allnutt Records
Aunt Peggy (Margaret McKay [q.v.], daughter of Col. Jeremiah McKay) tells about Uncle Abram McKay coming from Tennessee and bringing her a brass shawl pin.

Joined the Baptists and was disowned by the Quakers. --- O'Dell. Over the Misty Blue Hills, p. 103
Was called Lieutenant Colonel and removed to Cocke Co., Tenn. --- O'Dell. Over the Misty Blue Hills, p. 113

"Lieutenant Abraham McKay, with wife Rachel O'Dell, removed to Cocke County Tennessee from Shenandoah County Virginia in 1783. Sevier had negotiated two treaties by which the Cherokees had ceded to the State of Franklin all lands lying between the French Broad and the Little Tennessee Rivers. What is now Cocke County was then opened up to settlement.
"By the 1783 census in Shenandoah County, Abraham McKay had ten in family with two blacks and lived near his brother, Jeremiah McKay who had ten whites and 1 black....
"Abraham and Rachel O'Dell McKay lived on the French Broad River about three miles above Newport (Old Town). Soon after he established his new home, he became Lieutenant Colonel, under Colonel William Lillard in a company of men organized to recover the horses and cattle stolen from the new settlers on the French Broad and Big Pigeon Rivers. His place was maintained as a Fort after 1783 where the women and children could be kept in safety. William McKay and William Whitson were sent as a committee asking that a Baptist Church be organized in the Shenandoah community now settled in Tennessee. He and his wife Rachel were among the charter members. He acted as the Clerk of the congregation until 1832, at which time, his son, Jeremiah took over the duties. In turn, Jeremiah's son, Jeremiah McKay also served.
"Abraham and Rachel O'Dell McKay had eight children of which the following five are known...." --- O'Dell. Over the Misty Blue Hills, pp. 115-116
 
MCKAY, Abraham (I205)
 
580 Nancy married a cousin. Her brother Oscar C. Deeded 57 acres, including the home tract, with the house, which which led compilers of the WPA Historical Report to the erroneous conclusion that the property had descended to Robert S. McKay through his grandfather, Andrew McKay. Nancy inherited a portion of Jacob's estate. Their son's Robert and Jacob divided the property with Jacob getting Jacob's portion, while Robert received the Robert McKay, Jr home. -- Rebecca H. Good. The McKays...In Warren.... MCKAY, Nancy Antrim (I1052)
 
581 Necie Walker was a very exceptional person. She was quiet but forceful. She met Ernie while they were both in the service during World War II. She was an army [?] nurse. When she married a Protestant she was at odds with her Roman Catholic family. She left the service either at marriage or upon becoming pregnant. Howie was born in Mobile, Alabama, but when he was about a year old, she told her family that it was unfair that his other grandparents didn't know him. She proceeded to drive by herself from Mobile to Urbana, Ill. to meet her in-laws for the first time. At one point on the journey, she discovered that her small son who had been quietly playing in the back seat, had undressed himself and thrown the clothes out the window! When she arrived in Urbana, she formed a great and lasting bond with her husband's parents. I do not believe that she ever returned to Mobile to live. She did not visit her family very often nor did they visit her. It was a long time before she could bring herself to attend a Protestant church, but she finally did so when she was convinced that her children needed religion in their up-bringing. Eventually she joined the Methodist Chruch.
I remember this first visit and was thrilled, although pained, when Howie learned to stand up by pulling on my braids! I was also quite fascinated by Necie's speech. She did not have a strong southern accent, but tended to put "r's" in funny places.
Ernie and Necie lived in Philo, a small town near Urbana, in Bloomington, and then in Urbana itself. Necie was a housewife and mother, but as her boys got older, she became a gardener par excellance! She grew beautiful borders, and marvelous roses. She once remarked that her amarillys plants came from her father's stock, so he must have had horticultural interests too.

584 Newman lists him as Dr. George Yates.

Newmann, p 14, notes: "The Minute Book of Caroline records deed from George Yates (III) to George Yates, Jr., (His grandson) Nov. 9, 1780.
"In March 1788, Anthony Thornton, Sr. and Anthony Thornton, Jr., were appointed appraisers of the state of George Yates, dec'd. --- Extract from Caroline County Records.
"Extract of the will of George Yates, Surgeon's Mate in the Revolutionary War, Will Book I, p. 391, Culpeper Co., Va., Records. Will dated March 13, 1788. Probated June 16, 1788.
"'Debts and funeral expenses to be paid. Wife, Mary, to keep estate for support of herself and their son Lawrence Catlett Yates; but, if she should marry again, or when the son becomes of age " I desire an equal division to be made between wife and son. If son dies single, intestate, all of estate to go to wife. Whereas, my grandfather, George Yates, deceased, made me a deed to lands which he conceived himself entitled to, which is recorded in Caroline County, it is my desire that my brother William and Cousin John Yates take all legal steps to recover same and if it is found I have title to said lands, then they are to be divided between my son, Lawrence Catlett Yates, my brothers and sisters, and the children of my uncle, George Yates, dec'd., who are then living"
"'Executors, his friend Daniel Jamerson and his brother-in law, Kemp Catlett.
"'Witnesses: Gabriel Jones, H.Y. Wiggington'

"Notes on above: This George Yates served as Surgeon's Mate under General Muhlenberg, of the Revolutionary Army. He Married Mary Catlett. Their son, Lawrence Catlett Yates, died young, unmarried, and the widow married Reuben Zimmerman, by whom she had several children, and they inherited the Yates property." -- Newman, p. 16.

585 Newmann, p. 17, includes a letter from A.R. Yates:

"Hudson Mill, Va.
November 20, 1900

Mr. F. L. Burdette
Clarksburg, W. Va.
Dear Sir:
Your letter was received sometime back.
I will try to answer and give you all the information that I can. Am afraid it will be poor. My grandfather was Captain James Yates; he was a Captain in the Revolutionary War. My father was named Benjamin Yates. I had a cousin Richard Yates; he went West, but I do not know where. He left here when I was a small boy. Cousin Paul Yates has a brother living. You might gain some information from him. His name is Charles L. Yates. His address is Sperryville, Rappahannock County, Virginia. Their father was named Paul Yates. The Lillards are connected with the Yates family. I am not able to tell you how they came to be connected.
Hope you may be successful in finding out what you desire.
I am, yours very truly,
(Signed) A.R. Yates"

598 One source in the IGI lists her as "Mattie." Other sources use it too. Did she use this nickname?

"Martha Ann Carson, (Mrs. J.B. McLeod) was born in Schuyler county. Mo., on Feb. 28, 1845. She was the daughter of Simon and Ann Carson, well established citizens of that community. At an early age her parents moved to Marion county Missouri. This place has continued to be the family home unto the present day.
"On November 20th 1866, Martha Ann Carson became the bride of J.B. McLeod. They made Marion county their home until after the death of Mr. McLeod, which occurred Dec. 21, 1906. Nine children were born into this home, all of whom are still living. Mrs. L.V. White, H.M. McLeod, Mrs C.R. Taylor, J.J. McLeod, and Mrs J.B. Taylor, all live in Marion county. R.L. McLeod, of LaGrange, Mo. Mrs L.A. Harris, who lives in Montana, Mrs George Imbler, and Miss Mabel McLeod, of Kirksville. There were also two step-children, L.C. McLeod, who resides in Marion county and Mrs J.S. Batson, of Arkansas. Each member of this large family has gone out into the world bearing the stamp and imprint of honorable, honest, sincere, and loyal parents.
"At an early age she professed faith in Jesus Christ as her personal Savior and united with Bethel Baptist church in Marion county. She continued to hold membership in this church until the family moved to Kirksville in August, 1907. At this time she transferred her membership until the time of her death which occurred on the evening of May 15, 1926.
"The body was taken to the old Bethel cemetery in Marion county, beside Bethel church where it was laid to rest after funeral services.
"There were two big interests in the life of Mrs. McLeod. They stood side by side. First came her interest in and loyalty to her home. Her family was her joy and her pride. To her family she gave the best of her life but it was a joy to her. Her church came next. She was a valuable member faithful in all its activities. To these two institutions she gave her prayers, her support and her very self.
"In addition to the large immediate family, Mrs. McLeod had sixteen grandchildren and two great grandchildren, and added to these there are multitudes of near relatives and friends who feel that in her going the community is made poorer and a true friend has gone from them.
"Mrs McLeod was modest in her living. She did not seek honors for herself but was willing that they be added to others. There was no pomp or display in what she did; quietly and with unassumed dignity she faithfully performed her tasks in the home and in the church up unto the very last day of her life. She was young in spirit, entering heartily into the interest and activities of the many young people who were constantly about her premises and in the activities of the church. Her life was rich in good works, full of faith, and bright with hope. it was the kind that younger mothers could well pattern after.
"Mrs. Mcleod was a life-long Baptist, interested in all the denominational program. As an evidence of her deep abiding interest in the religious work of her denomination she was a subscriber and constant reader of the state religious paper from the earliest days of its publication.
"In her going the church has lost a valued and most beloved member, the community has lost a good citizen and the family has lost a faithful mother and friend. The sting and pang of her departure is made less severe in the hope of new days in a better land where we expect to meet and greet her together with the redeemed of God from all the earth. -- C.F. Acree, Pastor First Baptist Church." --From the Palmyra Spectator, May 19, 1926.

Mrs. J.B. McLeod dies suddenly, at age of 81. Body to be taken to Palmyra after brief service here -- Obit. in Kirksville paper, 1926.
"Mrs. Martha Mc Leod, 81 years old, died suddenly about 11 o'clock Saturday night at her home, 111 E. Illinois Street. Dilation of the heart was the cause of her death.
"A short funeral service is being held at the home this afternoon after which the body will be shipped to Palmyra. A funeral service will be held at the Bethel Baptist Church near Palmyra tomorrow morning at 11 o'clock. Interment will be hade there. Rev C.F. Acree will have charge of both services.
"Mrs McLeod had never been ill very much. She was feeling better than usual Saturday, and worked in her garden that afternoon. After supper she complained that something she had eaten did not agree with her and she was given a treatment. She felt better for a while, but about 11 o'clock, she complained again, and died in a short time.
"Mrs. McLeod was born in Schuyler County and has been a resident of Kirksville since 1907. Her husband, J.B. McLeod, died in 1906. She was the mother of nine childre, all of whom are living. Mrs. George Imbler and Miss Mabel McLeod are living in Kirksville. Only one daughter lives outside of Missouri. Mrs. McLeod is also survived by two sisters, both of whom are older than herself.
"Mrs McLeod had been a faithful member of the Baptist church and various church organizations. She had many friends here, who extend their sympathy to the family in their bereavement." 
CARSON, Martha Ann (I85)
 
599 One source in the IGI lists mother's name as Mary Jobe

Bill Jobe writes: "...Mary Job, his [Moses'] wife, was born sometime between 1727 and 1740; I believe she was the fourth child of his first wife, Sarah Gatchell who married Abraham Job 24 September 1726; perhaps she was born 1735..."

Bill Jobe in another place writes "Mary married Moses McKay, at the New Garden Meeting, before death of father. Her son Isaac McKay is mentioned in Abraham's will. (Moses McKay brother of step-mother?) (Note: Mary must have married very young to already have a son when her father died in 1750, if Elisha was the first born, then Mary could not have been more than twenty-one, probably younger. Since they were married at the New Garden Meeting in Pennsylvania, why did they return there when they lived in Virginia?)"

Moses married his sister Elizabeth's step-daughter!
