7-3 EDWARD McCLUNG
G5501
    The seventh child of John and Janet/Jennett Thompson McClung was probably born about 1756 in Augusta Co. in an area that later became Rockbridge Co. He md Mrs. Letitia Weymer, nee Black abt 1784. They moved in 1791 to Peters Creek at Kessler Cross Lanes in what later became Nicholas Co., WV. Capt. George Fitzwater also had a cabin there at the same time, when the Morris children were murdered at Peter�s Creek in 1792 by the Indians. (A monument is located in the Nicholas Co. Court House yard in reference to the children and the killing). Mathias Young made his way during the night to Kesslers Cross Lanes and notified McClung of the danger. Edward and the family accompanied by Young and Fitzwater set out for Peter�s Creek. Each man carried on his back a child and the wife followed along. All arrived safely at Peter�s Creek. The Morris children were buried and very soon all set out for the fort on the Kanawha River at the mouth of Hughes Creek. Edward McClung I sold his holdings at Kessler Cross Lanes in Nicholas Co. to the Campbells and Bailes and never returned.
    They had four children. Edward drowned in the Kanawha River near Moles Island the latter part of 1793.
    According to the records of Joseph Groves, Letitia married to William C. Groves and moved with him to Gallipolia, OH where they reared a large family.
    The marriage records of Greenbrier Co. show a Lettice McClung marrying 28 Nov 1797 to William Cherrington (Gr Mg, 5).


1-4 JANE McCLUNG
G5502
    The first child of Edward and Letitia Black McClung was b. ca 1786. She md John Groves III, 3 Mar 1804 at Lewisburg,Greenbrier,WV. He was b. 4 Feb 1781. He pioneered on McMillions Creek, was active in the organization of the county. He built a large cabin near Summersville. It was there that the court was held from 1819 to 1824. He served as trustee at the time Summersville was organized. Later a portion of the farm was sold to the town of Summersville where much is presently being used as a cemetery (Walker Cem.) where he and many descendants are buried.
    John was highly respected by all who knew him. He was a successful farmer and stockman. He gave each of his twelve children good farms. He bought and sold slaves at one time and owned slaves when they were freed. His slave remained with him until his death. �Joe Crow� the servant who waited on him was given a farm in the Canvas area near the Sam Dorsey place. Joe reared his family there after the war.
    In the early part of the day, John could stand in his yard and shoot deer that would feed in the woods near his house. He would pen his sheep in the chimney corner at night to keep the wolves from devouring them. This remarkable man cleared and improved nearly 200 acres on the home farm from a vergin forest. His word was as good as his and and was so taken.
    Jane died in 1855. John Groves died 10 Dec 1861. Their children were William who md Margaret McClung; Nathan who md Nancy McCoy; Elizabeth who md William J. Cottle; John, IV who md Catherine Duffy; Jane who md William H. Bryant; Jackson who md 1) Carolina Hanna and 2) Jane Dressler; Harrison who md 1) Rebecca Jones and 2) Sawyer Dyer; Alfred who md 1) Elizabeth Hill and 2) Evaline Hill; Mansfield who md 1) Miriam McCue and 2) Martha Hill; Austin who md Anna E. Hill. (Joseph Groves has supplied us with the descendants of these people up to the 12th generation. It needs to be put up on a web site and documented. Perhaps one of these descendants would take up the gauntlet)
