In the year 1781, Mrs. Mary Ambler, the widow of whom we shall
call the first Edward Ambler, whilst staying at "The Cottage,"
in Hanover County, Virginia, was attacked by that illness which
ended in her death. Whilst on her death-bed, she directed that
her remains should be taken to Jamestown. But, as the war still
raged with England, it was thought best to have them interred
where she died. And even this precaution did not have the effect
of securing them from profanation of the British troops, a
detachment of which overran this part of the county and came to
"The Cottage" to ransack and to plunder. In looking for the
family plate, they took it into their heads that it was buried
in the graveyard; though they were assured to the contrary by
the servants. They proceeded to the grave of my (J. J. Ambler's)
grandmother, dug up the coffin and actually opened it, before
they could be satisfied that the object of their search was not
there. When the war was ended, Mrs. Ambler's remains were taken
to Jamestown, according to her requests, and placed by the side
of those of her husband."

Mother: Isabell Lee HIXSON |
By Dave Goetz ‘85G
A few months ago while reading “The Years of Anguish: Fauquier
County, Virginia, 1861-1865,” I noticed that one of the county’s
favorite sons, Thomas Lee Settle, “... was graduated from a
medical college in Louisville, Kentucky, where he also served a
short period on the staff of a hospital.”
That discovery launched me on a mission to discover more about
this connection to my hometown university. The results could
provide fodder for a novel, as Settle not only was involved in
the execution of John Brown, but he saved the life of a Virginia
governor, too.
Thomas L. Settle graduated with the Class of 1857 from what was
then known as the Kentucky School of Medicine. From brief
biographies, I learned that he practiced as a resident graduate
at the Louisville Hospital until May 1858, when he was sent by
the hospital as a delegate to the American Medical Association
in Washington, D.C. Not long after, Settle returned to his home
in Virginia.
Settle was born at Mt. Bleak, in Fauquier (pronounced Fau-keer’)
County, Va., on Feb. 18, 1836. His father, Abner Humphrey
Settle, was a merchant and farmer in the county who at one time
served as postmaster at Paris, a mile or so from his home.
Today, Settle’s boyhood home serves as the main office and
museum of Sky Meadow State Park, which houses some of Settle’s
artifacts.
John Brown’s Pulse
At an early age, Settle became an assistant to a Paris doctor,
his cousin A. S. Payne, who prepared him for formal medical
training at Castleton Medical School in Vermont. He graduated
from a preparatory program in Castleton in 1856 and from there
proceeded to Louisville.
In 1859, talk of an inevitable war swirled ever faster. Settle
was now back in Paris and joined Capt. Turner Ashby’s cavalry
company. When John Brown and his band of revolutionaries
attacked the federal arsenal at Harper’s Ferry, Va., this unit
joined other state militia in helping put down the rebellion.
After Brown’s trial and conviction, Settle was ordered to attend
his hanging and confirm his death by taking his pulse. According
to a Virginia Civil War Trails sign near Settle’s boyhood home,
Brown predicted from the gallows, “The sins of this guilty land
can only be purged with blood.”
A Confederate Surgeon
On Jan. 3, 1861, Settle married Louisa Hampton O’Rear, and they
lived in Paris in a house Settle had built. Over the course of
their marriage, Louisa bore 10 children: eight daughters and two
sons.
When Virginia joined the Confederacy in June 1861, Settle
enlisted in what was to become the 7th Virginia Cavalry as an
assistant surgeon. He was paid a wage of $110 per month.
When the 7th Cavalry grew to an unwieldy size the following year
and was reorganized, Settle was assigned to the 17th Battalion,
which then became the 11th Virginia Cavalry in February 1863.
Settle was soon promoted to surgeon, attaining the equivalent
rank of major.
It was during his time with the 11th Cavalry that Settle saved
the life of a future governor of Virginia--a little-known event
in the annals of the War Between the States.
On June 21, 1863, Capt. Charles O’Ferrall, a Confederate officer
commanding the 12th Virginia’s first squadron, was severely
wounded in a battle in Upperville, Va. In Robert F. O’Neill’s
book “The Cavalry Battles of Aldie, Middleburg and Upperville:
June 10-27, 1863,” O’Ferrall recalled:
“... I was struck by a carbine ball which pierced my left chest
... I fell limp and unconscious from my saddle ... I was aroused
to partial consciousness by violent pain, and found myself
astride a horse, with strong arms around me, going at a rapid
trot over a rough road, and a man riding on either side, aiding
in keeping my limp body on the horse.”
The physician who initially attended O’Ferrall determined that
he had been hit in the heart and would surely die, so left him.
Settle was sent for, and rushed to O’Ferrall’s side to do what
he could. Settle quickly removed the bullet, which had indeed
lodged precariously near the captain’s heart.
O’Ferrall survived the wound and the war, becoming governor of
Virginia from 1894-1898. Years after the war, O’Ferrall gave a
“friendship ring” to Settle as a symbol of his endless and
enduring gratitude to the doctor who saved his life. The ring
today resides in the Warren Rifles Museum in Front Royal, Va.
He also presented Settle with a special pistol made in England
as a further sign of his gratitude. A brass plate engraving
inlaid into the top of the presentation pistol box reads,
“T. L. Settle from C. T. O’Ferrall, Upperville 1863.”
After the War
Dr. Settle was eventually captured on Feb. 18, 1865--his 29th
birthday--in Warren County, Va., and sent to Fort McHenry near
Baltimore. His arrest papers bore the notation: “Guerrilla--not
to be exchanged during the war--by order of Major General
Sheridan.” The notation reflects the hatred that developed among
Federal officers for partisan rangers such as John Singleton
Mosby, the “Gray Ghost” of the Confederacy.
The war ended less than two months later, and Settle was
released from prison May 4 after taking the Oath of Allegiance.
Settle returned to Paris and his family and resumed a medical
practice that made him a beloved figure in the community. Author
Carlton Staples writes of Settle in his book “The Years of
Anguish”:
“During 62 years of practice his visits were made by buggy or
horseback. Roads and weather were never too bad for him to go
relieve illness and very often cheer a despondent spirit ...
Memories of his life are cherished by those who knew him, and
his record is a surviving challenge for those who follow.”
In 1884, diphtheria struck Settle’s family and, between March 3
and the middle of April, he lost his wife, Louisa, and sons Lee
and Abner to the dreaded disease. Settle went on to live 36 more
years. He died on Aug. 26, 1920, at age 84. He is buried in the
Ivy Cemetery in Upperville, Va., alongside his wife and children
Addie, Joe Gales and Louisa P. n
