Notes

"Marion County History - John Fleming and his brothers' three sons were the first settlers in Fairmont, the county seat. They arrived from Delaware in 1789. In 1793, Jacob Paulsley built a home on the east side of the Monongahela River in present day Fairmont. At that time, most of the future city was a dense, laurel thicket. The area's population remained very low until the construction of a road between Clarksburg and Morgantown in 1819. A halfway resting point was needed along the road. Boaz Fleming's land on the west side of the river was considered no good for cultivating, so the town was started there, and incorporated in 1820 as Middletown. Three ferries and a hotel owned by Frederick Ice were the first businesses in the town. Across the river, a post office was opened and called Paulsley, in honor of John Paulsley. In 1838, Paulsley was incorporated as Palatine. On February 4, 1843, the two towns merged and, by an act of the General Assembly, was renamed Fairmont, a contraction of Fair Mountain, one of the choices under consideration as the name for the new town. Fairmont was long known in the state for its saw, grist and woolen mills. The town experienced a growth spurt when the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad extended a line to the town on January 22, 1852."

"Oral history indicates that in 1808 Boaz Fleming made his annual trek to Clarksburg to pay his brother's Harrison County taxes. While in Clarksburg he attended a social gathering that included Dolly Madison, his cousin. He complained to her about having to travel over a hundred miles each year from his home to pay his Monongalia County taxes and his brother's Harrison County taxes. Dolly Madison supposedly suggested that he create his own county to save him all that travel. Six years later, Boaz Fleming circulated a petition to do precisely that, naming the proposed county Madison County, in her and her husband's, President James Madison, honor. The petition failed to gain sufficient support to be presented to the Virginia General Assembly. He then focused on creating a town near his farm. In 1819, a road was built from Clarksburg to Morgantown. His farm was about halfway between the two, making a good resting point. He laid out the town on the west side of the Monongahela River in 1819. It was incorporated on January 19, 1820 as Middletown. It is unknown if the town was called Middletown because of its location mid-way between Clarksburg and Morgantown or because Boaz Fleming's first wife, Elizabeth Hutchinson, was originally from Middletown, Delaware. Middletown was named newly-formed Marion County's first county seat on February 18, 1842. At that time, William Haymond, Jr. suggested that the town's name be changed to Fairmont because the town had a beautiful overlook of the Monongahela River, giving it a "fair mount." The Borough of Fairmont was incorporated in 1843 by the Virginia General Assembly."

The Kinney Family. Volume I Chapter V Fifth Generation. The Kinney Family.

"He was born about 1725, and was most probably a son of Captain William Kinney, of Blisland Parish, New Kent County, who was a vestryman of the parish from 1724 to 1735, church warden 1721 to 1729, and a magistrate of the county. The maiden name of his wife, Mary Kinney, is said by some to have been Chesley, in which way Chesley became a family name with the Kinneys; others think her name was Moon; but of her ancestry, nothing definite has yet been learned. The old Family Bible was destroyed by fire shortly after the Civil War, making it impossible to give all dates exactly, but William and Mary Kinney were married about 1764.

William Kinney bought property October 13, 1779, on the south side of Hardware River, near Scottsville, in Albemarle county. Here he raised his family, consisting of three sons and one daughter.

William Kinney died 1794, in Augusta County, Virginia, where his sons, Jacob and Chesley, lived.

February 16, 1795, his property in Albemarle County, Virginia, was sold by Chesley Kinney and Mary, his wife. Jacob Kinney and Ann, his wife, of Augusta County, Virginia, and William Kinney, James Whitesides, and Nancy, his wife, of Amherst County, heirs of William Kinney, deceased. His wife then removed to Augusta, to be with her sons, and about the same time, William Kinney, Jr., and Nancy Whitesides also settled there. Mary Kinney d. January 3, 1805, aged 78 years, and was buried by the side of her husband in the Tinkling Spring churchyard, about seven miles east of Staunton.
