4157 | King.GEDCOM. Electronic. Date of Import: December13, 2001. [Benjiman Furbee Descendants.FTW] "The part played by Thomas Morris in this great struggle was most interesting and worthy of record. A young man of about thirty when the war began, he had been recently married (1861) and had the leading store in Centreville. By inheritance and family ties, his sympathies went with the southern cause, but the great majority of his neighbors and friends were allied with the cause of the Union. No finer tribute can be paid to his memory than the simple faith and trust that the soldiers of the North had in him and expressed in their letters written to him from the battlefields and camps of Virginia. When they sent their monthly wages home to their families, it was always through his hands that they sent it. It was with him that they discussed the problems of their hard life. Many of these letters are in the writer's possession and they throw interesting light upon this modest and just man. An interesting and colorful incident from the opposite angle happened one evening when a troop of southern cavalry rode down McElroy, across Middle Island and on into the little village of Centreville. Most of the people of the town and community fled or closed and barred their doors, but not so with Tom Morris. He opened wide his store and invited the warriors in and let them help themselves to what they desired from his shelves, which they were not slow in doing. At the close of their visit; they paid their bill--in Confederate bills, legal tender in the realm of Jefferson Davis, but of doubtful value in West Virginia." | Morris, Thomas J. (I14337)

George was the son of George Strathers and Mary Hill. From his son Madison Strathers: "My father, George Strathers, Jr., in early childhood, had come to Scenery Hill with his father, George Strathers, SR., his Uncle Robert strathers and Zephaniah Riggle and their families to Virginia and settle in the region of Centerville. The elder Strathers were Union sympathizers, but the Riggles in whose home my father spent most of his youth (his mother having died when he was four years old), were in sympathy with the Conferacy.....[he] set out at the age of sixteen with a neighbor boy, Harvey Tallman, and went down the Ohio (River) to Cincinnati and there attempted to run the Union lines and join the Confederates. Turned back in their attempt, my father returned for a short time to the home county. His father held the position of (civilian) superintendent of transportation at Annapolis, Maryland, and my father joined him there in 1863 and spent the next three years in government positions.....My grandfather {Bowers Furbee} gave the young couple a small piece of land near his home-on which they built a small six-room frame house.....My father taught school four months in winter (1869-1870) in the newly established free school system and sold sewing-machines and patent rights of various sorts during the summer. He was elected justice of the peace first in 1873 and again in 1877. In 1880, he and my mother's nephew, James Wells, opened a store.....In two years they had trusted out all they had to impoverished customers, and they sold out, owing many hundreds of dollars to supply houses." | Strathers, George B.

In 1775 Alexander Smith had acquired a right to 400 acres between Little Pawpaw Creek and Big Pawpaw Creek by building a cabin and living in it. Smith sold the land to Isaac Lemasters, who sold it to his son Joseph. Joseph sold it to James Clelland, who had it surveyed and was issued a patent in 1796. About 1799 Clelland learned that Charles Harryman had obtained title to part of the land and sold it on 19 JUL 1791 to Caleb Furbee, who had taken possession. Furbee asked Clelland not to bring suit and agreed to buy the land from him for $200. There was no written agreement, and Furbee did not make the payment when due. On 11 OCT 1802 Furbee gave the land to his son Mathias, who sold it to Arnett. Clellan said Caleb and Mathias then left VA without paying him for the land. | Furbee, Mathias (I13029)

[Benjiman Furbee Descendants.FTW] According to Madison Stathers, "One more tragic event was to fall upon the Furbees during this period of universal tragedy, and it was to take the nature of a calamity for the entire community. Susan, the oldest daughter of Bowers and Nancy Furbee, had been married to Oliver P. Wells, a son of William Wells, one of the wealthiest and best known men of the county. They lived in the larger, stone house near the mouth of McElroy and had extensive holdings in the community. Oliver Wells returned from a trip to Baltimore and fell ill. His malady was diagnosed as the dread smallpox. Immediately, the farm--with all its occupants--was quarantined. The master of the house died after a few days of intense suffering and was buried by a few devoted followers. One by one all the members the household took the terrible malady, except the mother, who--by the greatest good fortune--had been vaccinated and escaped it completely. This scourge continued throughout the Spring and a part of the Summer of 1864." | Furbee, Susannah (I12713)
