| 8309 | The following article about Viola Clabo Henry that mentions Cynthia Rainwater as Viola's being her great-grandmother, and wife of Andrew Jackson King, She mentions that Cynthia was either a half-Indian or a full-blooded Indian. Remembrances of the Past, Smokey Mountain Historical Society Journal, Page 31 Vol. XXVI 2000 Special Publication #1, Viola Clabo Henry I was born June 23, 1903, in a big log house on Caney Creek, in Sevier County, TN., daughter of James N. and Ann Rauhuff Clabo. Grandparents were: John and Mary Jane King Clabo and W.A. and Sarah Atchley Rauhuff. My great-grandfather, Benjamin Atchley started Atchelyâ??s Funeral Home in Sevierville. Other ancestors included: Rainwaters, Dixons, Adairs. The Clabos settled here in the early 1800â??s. There were five living children in our family. We moved to the Bear Wallow, also in Sevier County, where some of my happiest childhood days were spent. We used to go to church, at Beech Grove Primitive Baptist, on Caney Creek, on Sundays. Weâ??d go visiting on Sunday afternoon. Preacher Giles Adams was the pastor then. We dearly loved him. Dad helped cut timber to build the first church building. He served as a Deacon in the church. My son, Shirley Henry, is the pastor there now. I have been a member there for 80 years. Christmas time is another good memory. We used to get clothes for Christmas and one small gift. One dinner I remember was chicken and dumplings, dried apple stack cake and gingerbread. One of my biggest worries as a child was not wanting my parents to get gray-headed. I just didnâ??t want them to have gray hair! Mother died young, so hers wasnâ??t gray and Dad died at age 86 and his still wasnâ??t gray. Mine is dark brown like his. I guess itâ??s our Indian heritage. My great-grandmother, Cynthia Rainwater King, wife of Andrew Jackson King, was either a half-Indian or a full-blooded Indian; Iâ??m not sure which. Iâ??m proud to be part Indian. They were the first Americans. I married at age 17, to Simeon Henry. Giles Adams married us. We had six sons, two daughters. Four of our sons are deceased. We have 30 grandchildren, 31 great-grandchildren and 4 great-great grandchildren. Two sons served in World War II. We lived on Mill Creek, now Conner Heights, when we first married. We moved here, Lower Middle Creek Road, sixty-five years ago. We rented the place first and later bought it. It isnâ??t the same house, but it is the same location. My husband died in 1974. My daughter and granddaughters live with me now. I used to grow a big garden every year, but I made my last one when I was 80. I pieced my last quilt that year. My Mother, Ann Rauhuff Clabo, died at age 38, during childbirth. Her twin sons, born stillbirth, were buried with her at Beech Grove Cemetery. Dad married Mariah Houser MeCarter, a widow with two daughters, in 1923. With Dadâ??s and Motherâ??s five living children, Mariahâ??s two daughters and five more children born to the family, we had a big family. There are six of us still living. Our families still get together every year for the â??Clabo Reunionâ?. Iâ??ve seen a lot of changes in Sevier County. It used to be just farms and farmhouses. Now itâ??s covered with hotels and motels. There were just two stores. I donâ??t know hQW many there are now. I am now 96 years old. Iâ??m in pretty good shape for the shape Iâ??m in. â??I canâ??t see well. I donâ??t hear good. I have dentures and my appetite is poor. My hair, thank goodness itâ??s not gray, but itâ??s getting thin. I walk with a walker, and now my family has me in the â??electric chairâ??! I canâ??t get up and down without this lift chair.â? Note from the interviewer: As she told her story, she had a twinkle in her eyes and a grin on her face. She has a great sense of humor and a very vivid memory. She remembers dates and people and places as if the events happened yesterday. We made a video of her as she talked. Something we will treasure. I am very blessed to be her sister, Ruby Clabo Hall PERSONAL DATA: Resides in: Pigeon Forge, Sevier County, TN Birth date: June 23, 1903 Father-James Newton Clabo Mother-Ann Rauhuff Clabo Brothers-Charlie, Orville, Half-brother-Claude Clabo Sisters-Ethel (Henry), Edith (Henry), Half-, sister: Ruth (Shields), Martha (Franklin), Ruby (Hall), Step-sisters Jane McCarter (Ogle) and Josie McCarter (Brewer) Assistance by: Ruby (Clabo) Hall History is simply not what happened, but the way what happened is remembered. | Rainwater, Lucinda Cynthia (I24965)

| 8311 | The History of West Virginia, Old and New. Published 1923, The American Historical Society, Inc., Chicago and New York, Volume II, page 124 Frank Emory Furbee has been actively associated with the business life of Mannington for over three decades, is head of the very prosperous establishment known as the H. R. & F. E. Furbee, extensive dealers in Men's and women's apparel and is also president of the Furbee Furniture Company, and through his substantial resources and influence he has contributed to the upbuilding of the little city, especially in its educational institutions. This is one of the oldest American families in West Virginia, and in all the generations the name has stood for progress and advancement. The Furbees are of English descent. Benjamin Furbee was born in 1693, on the Delaware - Maryland Peninsula. His son was named Bowers. Caleb, a son of Bowers, and the ancestor of the West Virginia branch of the family, was born at Kent, Delaware, November 22, 1752. As a young man he enlisted with the Delaware troops to serve the cause of independence in May 1775. He was promoted to lieutenant in 1776, and in May 1777, was in command of a detachment of troops in Captain Caldwell's company under Colonel Pope. Among other battles he was at Brandywine in 1777, and continued with the patriot armies until independence was achieved. Caleb Furbee about 1790, with his wife, Sarah and four sons, Waitman, John, George, and Caleb, came to what is now West Virginia, settled near Morgantown, made large purchases of land on Paw Paw Creek, now in Marion County, and lived in the midst of and participated in the development of that section for years, but spent his last days in Tyler County, where the life of this Revolutionary patriot came to its close on April 16, 1837. Three generations intervene between him and the Mannington merchant first named above. George Furbee, son of Caleb, was born in Delaware, spent his active life as a farmer and stock-raiser on Paw Paw Creek, and died in 1844. In 1796 he married Elizabeth Prichard. Their children were James and Elizabeth, the latter marrying Jeremiah Beatty. James Furbee is the most prominent name associated with the early history of Mannington. He was born in the Paw Paw Creek district, and after some years as a farmer there he bought 800 acres, including the site of the City of Mannington. He founded the town, opened its first store, and guided his personal interests to the welfare of the community ever afterward. For many years he was a leading stock dealer. James Furbee in 1823 married Mary Ann Lindsay, daughter of Lindsay and Nellie (Janes) Boggess. Their son was the late Hon. James Hilary Furbee, who was born at Basnettsville, Marion County, October 18, 1827. He found his interesting duties in connection with his father's early enterprises at Mannington, and upon completion of the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad through that town in 1852 he was appointed station agent. These were his official duties until 1862, when he was appointed United States revenue collector. Soon after the outbreak of the Civil war he had raised a company for state service, became its captain, and was with the command in repelling threatened invasions from the South. James H. Furbee in 1878 was elected a member of the West Virginia Legislature, and in 1880 was chosen to a seat in the State Senate. However, on account of a technicality, he was not seated. In 1886 he was again elected by a large majority, and was also elected in 1892. Perhaps his most useful service in the Senate was rendered the cause of state education. That was his dominating public motive. He was chairman of the committee on education in the Senate. hardly less important was the twenty years he served as president of the Board of Education of Mannington District. During this period his work contributed largely to the establishment of the free school system, and introduced something more than nominal standards for the management and conduct of the local schools. His long devotion to church culminated in his election as a lay delegate to the General Conference of 1900. James H. Furbee, whose life of usefulness closed on November 9, 1899, married on October 7, 1855, Sarah J. McCoy, of Tyler County. Her grandparents, john and Esther (McCarty) McCoy, came from North of Ireland in 1801, settling first in the Shenandoah Valley and subsequently removing to Middlebourne, Tyler County. Their son, James McCoy, married in Tyler County, Jane Martin, and they were the parents of Sarah J. Furbee, who survived her husband, passing away July 12, 1921. This brings this interesting family narrative down to Frank Emory Furbee, who was born at Mannington, October 11, 1867. Both at home and in school he was well trained for the responsibilities that awaited him. After the public schools he attended the Fairmont State Normal School, and in 1890 graduated from Duff's Business College of Pittsburgh. he forthwith entered his father's business, known as J. H. Furbee & Sons, dealers in clothing, shoes, and furnishings at Mannington. Since 1896 this prosperous business has continued under the title of H. R. & F. E. Furbee. Mr. F. E. Furbee in 1910 became associated with the organization of the Furbee Furniture Company. Mr. Furbee succeeds to the responsibilities so long held by his father as a guiding hand in the educational affairs of Mannington. He was chosen president of the Board of Education in July, 1919. He is a Knight Templar, thirty-second degree Scottish Rite Mason and a Shriner, an Elk, and Modern Woodman, and is a charter member of the Kiwanis Club. October 1, 1899, Mr. Furbee married Virginia H. Hagadorn. She is of New England ancestry, and was born at Troy, New York, daughter of Charles H. and Charlotte Hagadorn, of Bennington, Vermont. Mr. and Mrs. Furbee have two children: Robert Dater, born November 10, 1906, and Martha Virginia, born March 11, 1912.

| 8315 | The information on John Moore, his wife and children is from MOORE Volume II compiled by Dorothy T. Hennen. "Still another John Moore is spoken of in Hanna 's History of Green County. This John Moore is said to have come to America i n 1770, whether brought by parents or as ayoung man on his own is not explain ed. Hanna quoted family traditions, which were sometimes incorrect, and it is possable that this John Moore may have been a son of one of the above listed men. Some things are definitely known about this man. He was a doctor of medicine, and is the John Moore, listed as 'schoolmaster on Big Whitely Creek' in the Muddy Creek Ledger. His wife was Hannah Armstrong. He had two tracks of land surveyed to him, one under the title 'Station,' which was patented to him on April 25, 1793, and the other, which adjoined it, patented under the title 'Moorefields' was secured by a warrent dated February 19, 1793. N umerous deeds, including the one for 'Moorefields', in which he is joined by wife, Hannah, on January 29, 1810, in a sale to James Bradford, disclose that there were at least three sone born to Doctor John Moore. There may have been daughters, but no mention other than census records indicate the presence of female descendents. Dr. Jojn Moore is buried in the Armstrong Cemetery, where his tombstone says he died December 2, 1816 (1818?) aged 71 years. from The Tenmile Country and Its Pioneer Families JOHN1 MOORE1,2 was born 1745 in Dublin, Ireland3, and died 02 December 1816 in Greene County, Pennsylvania. He married HANNAH ARMSTRONG, daughter of ADAM ARMSTRONG. She was born 1744 in Northern Ireland3,4, and died 02 December 1814 in Greene County, Pennsylvania5. . . . school master, listed in the Muddy Creek Ledger, and described as being of Big Whiteley Creek. This man had warranted to him, on February 25, 1788, a tract of land called "Station" and then on February 19, 1793, warranted the adjoining 400 acres under the title of "Moorefields," both situated on the South Branch of Big Whiteley. On January 29, 1810, John Moore, and wife Hannah, sold a paart of Moorefields to James Bradford. (DB. 2. pp. 443). Following the death of Dr. John Moore, a series of deeds from his heirs, disposed of much of the land granted to him by the Commonwealth. The census for 1790 indicates that in addition to the three sons, known heirs of Dr. John Moore, there were probably five daughters whose names are not shown in the settlement of his estate. John Moore is in the Green Township tax list for 1784, showing his residence at that date." (TEN MILE, p643.) Notes for JOHN MOORE: "A third John Moore is the subject of a sketch in Hanna's History of Green County. Hanna says he came to this country from Dublin, Ireland, in 1770, and that his wife was Hannah Armstrong. There seems little doubt that this is the Dr. John Moore, who is buried in the Armstrong cemetery. His tombstone says he died December 2, 1816 (or 1818 ), aged 71 years. This burial place suggests that his wife was closely connected with John and Abraham Armstrong, probably a sister. The estate record in Green County, Will Book 1, pp.190, lists him as John Moore, MD, and his son, John Moore, Jr. administrator, filed for probate on February 20, 1819. This John Moore was probably the John Moore, m Michael B. Crawford mcrawfor@bitterroot.net "John Moore, born Dublin, Ireland on July 19, 1741. Not sure born in Dublin, may have been born in England. He was apparently raised and enrolled for the priesthood, but at sometime during this training changed and became a doctor. He appears to have immigrated to America via Philadelphia, in 1770. I don't know if he was a certified doctor when he left Ireland and came to America or not. I have no additional information on John while in Ireland. He came by ship to America and to the state of Pa, married a "Hannah Armstrong". They had three sons, John A. Moore, Jr., Armstrong and Abraham. It is also stated they had five daughters, but I have found a record of only a Jane and Margaret. They owned farm lands, called Example, Moorefields, and Station on the south branch of Whitely Creek. He was in the Rev. War as a private, although our family papers stated he was a doctor. He and Hannah are buried in the Armstrong Cemetery Ground, 3 miles east of Carmichaels, PA" From Wendy Acason vk2gsb@tac.com.au doing lookups in Co. Donegal, Ireland on the Moore Family Gen Forum.

| 8332 | The name Emmert also seen as Emert and Emmertt and Emertt is of Germanic origin. This family hailed from Leipzig, Sachsen, Germany but there are no further specifics regarding locality found to date (06/02/2014). Philip Emert first went to Rotterdam, Holland from his home in Germany and boarded the ship "Alexander and Ann" for the trip to America by way of Cowes, England and on September 5th, 1730, he arrived in Philadelphia, Philadelphia County, Pennsylvania (now USA). He and his wife, Maria, settled in the Uppler Hanover Township, Philadelphia County (now Montgomery County), Pennsylvania. He was listed as the sixth person on the "List of Heads of Families Belonging to the Congregation of New Goshenhoppen Reformed Church" and was "eleted to the duties of office" at the same church on January 1st, 1738, listed as Emmert surname. The Parliament of Great Britain passed an act to allow foreign protestants in the British Colonies in America to become naturalized citizens during the reign of King George II. Fast to take advatage of the situation on August 16th, 1741 he took the oath of allegiance to Great Britain and the province of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia, Philadelphia County, Pennsylvania. In late August of 1741, he and his brother-in-law George Pfaltgraff made an overseas trip to visit Germany for their father-in-law Caspar Kamm for reasons unknown. They came home on the ship "St. Mark" on September 26th, 1741 from Rotterdam, Holland again via Cowes, England. The following information was provided by Jay Webb as being the parents of Frederick E. Emert, Sr.: Father: Johan George Emmot; b. 1716 in Leipzig, Germand; d. 1796 in Reading, Burks County, PA Mother: Eva Marie Graff They married in 1742 in Pennsylvania an had the following children: Daniel; Elizabeth (m. Henry Harkelrood); Jacob; Frederick E. (m. Barbara Ann Neidig); George (1757-1846), m. Mary Conley; and Leonard (1774-1804), m. Catherine Gunckle. I have found many more resources pointing to Peter and Anna as being Johan's parents, though due to all of the work Jay Webb has put into our family research it would be remiss of me to not include this information in these notes. The evidence of such is below. The information presented for Johan Philip Emmert and Maria Catherina Kamm/Kamp was published in "The Book of Ragan/Reagan," written by Donald B. Reagan (pp. 413-416) as being the parents of Frederick E. Emert, Sr. CHRISTENING: 17 February 1704 in Neckarelz, Baden, Germany Witnessed by Peter Kessler who was a citizen and blacksmith in Neckarelz, Baden, Germany. ALIAS: Johann Philip Emert BIOGRAPHY: The name EMMERT/EMERT is of German Origin. Johan Philip Emmert is the paternal ancestor of the Emmert brothers, Philip, Frederick and Daniel who married Ragan sisters, Elizabeth, Sarah and Celia Drusilla, and sister Louisa who probably married Ragan brother, Robert Nelson in Sevier County, Tennessee is believed to be Philip Emmert. He was born circa 1704 in Neckarelz, Baden, Germany. He went to Rotterdam, Holland from his home place in Germany and boarded the ship "Alexander and Ann" for the trip to America by the way of Cowes, England. On Tuesday, 05 September 1730, he arrived in the town of Philadelphia, Philadelphia County, Pennsylvania. About 1731 Philip Emmert was married to Maria Catharine Kamm, daughter of Johannes Caspar KAMM and Anna Catharina Franck, in Philadelphia, Philadelphia County, Pennsylvania. Maria Catharine Kamm was baptized on Saturday, 23 December 1713 at Eppingen Reformed Church in Eppingen, Germany. Philip Emmert and his wife Maria Catharine settled in Upper Hanover Township, Philadelphia County (now Montgomery County), Pennsylvania. He was listed as the sixth person on the "List of the Heads of Families Belonging to the Congregation of New Goshenhoppen Reformed Church" and was "elected to the duties of office" at the same church on Wednesday, 01 January 1738. The Parliament of Great Britain passed an act to allow foreign Protestants in the British Colonies in America to become naturalized citizens during the reign of King George II. On Wednesday, 16 August 1741, Philip Emmert took the oath of allegiance to Great Britain and the province of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia, Philadelphia County, Pennsylvania. In late August of 1741, he and his brother-in-law George Pfaltgraff made an overseas trip to visit Germany for their father-in-law Caspar Kamm for an unknown reason. They came home on the ship "St. Mark" on Tuesday, 26 September 1741 from Rotterdam, Holland by the way of Cowes, England. Philip Emmert apparently had died before Friday, 28 May 1762 in Richmond Township, Berks County, Pennsylvania. On that date, his wife Maria Catharina Kamm Emmert was appointed as administratrix of her husband's estate.

It is not far from Eppingen, where there were KAMMs. It was a spa and was made part of an imperial city by Frederick BARBAROSSA wo that it owed no feudal allegiance to the Duke of Schwabia or later the Dukes of Wurtemburg, Baden or the Count Palatine, who all owned bits of land in that area. At some point its imperial status was revoked and it was awarded to Hessedarmstadt. The province of Hessedarmstadt came all the way down to the north bank of the Neckar River and within a few miles of Mossbach, which was and remains in Baden. There were more EMMERTS in Mossbach and for a longer period of time, which is also where LOY/LAYs lived. (1f,2) 1730, 5 Sep: (1f) Conrad STAMM and Johan Philip EMMERT on a list of 45 Palatines with their families imported in the ship "Alexander and Anne," William CLYMER, Master, from Rotterdam, but last from Cowes.

Longswamp Twp. created 1761 from Rockland Twp., which was created 1758 from Oley Twp., which was created 1740 while part of Philadelphia Co.; this area would have been Oley Twp. in 1752.] (5,7c) 1758: George EMMERT and Johan Philip EMMERT taxed, Longswamp Twp., Berks Co., PA. (7d) 1762: George EMMERT was listed as a bondsman in the probate of Johan Philip EMMERT's estate, Berks Co., PA. . Emmert appears in records as Emert, Emmert, Emmerich, Emrick and is believed to be of German origin since the name appears in German records in Baden, Wurtemburg, Hesse-Darmstadt, Bavaria, etc. Johan Philip Emmert arrived in Philadelphia, PA, 5 SEP 1730, on the ship "Alexander and Ann" from Rotterdam by way of Cowes, England. LDS Santa Clara Lib. California, 974.8/p418, states- "A Palatine imported in the ship "Alexander and Anne, " William Clymer, Master from Rotterdam but last from Deal, qualified 5 SEP 1730." According to Helen Hewitt Johan Philip Emmert came into Philadelphia again on 26 SEP 1741, along with his brother-in-law, George Pfaltzfraf, on the "St. Mark." They must have returned to Germany to settle an estate of a relative of Casper Kamm's as he [Casper Kamm] made out his will 3 NOV 1741; Will was proved 1752. Caspar's will listed daughter, Catherine Emmert, and son-in-law, Phillip Emmert. It has not been determined whether Phillip and Catherine were married before or after arrival in Pennsylvania. Received the following August 4, 2000, from Helen Hewitt: Hi Joe, Don't think I know you but we are related. Casper Kamm arrived pre-list (1720) and was not on the same ship as J. Philip Emmert. If you would like to verify this information, check the ship's list or Annette Kunselman Burgert's book "18th Century Emmigrants" V. I. Helen Hewitt According to the research of late Vernon Ray- Johan Philip Emmert was naturalized as citizen of Great Britain in 1741 in Philadelphia. William Kinke's book, "The History of the Goshenhoppen Reformed Church,"- Phillip Emmert was located in the Goshenhoppen region as early as 1731 and was charter member of this church. New Goshenhoppen Church records show the dates of baptism of the first 5 children. Donald Reagan, Helen Hewitt, and Pat Manning have added children 6-10, all born in Berks Co., Pennsylvania. | EMERT, JOHAN PHILLIP (I23278)
