Caroline County, Virginia, 18th Century

by Iris Teta Eubank Wagner
3rd great-granddaughter
 

During the Revolutionary War, John and Margaret Newman Eubank sold their land in Caroline County, Virginia, in February, 1780.  A few months later, in the summer of 1780, they moved from the politically and religiously divided Tidewater county of Caroline, Virginia, in hopes of calmer environs west, across the valley of Virginia to the foot of the Blue Ridge Range in Amherst County. With them were three-year-old son, Thomas Newman Eubank, and infant daughter, Lucy.

Traveling with John and Margaret were John's brother, George Eubank, and his wife, Delilah, and their family.  Other families from Caroline joined them.  Brother Ambrose Eubank had moved earlier to Amherst, where he acquired land in 1779.

The elder John Eubank, Caroline Constable
John and George's father, the elder John Eubank c1720, was serving as  Constable in Caroline when he died in 1778. His death may have been related to his duty in keeping the peace in such a volatile county as Caroline.   The elder John Eubank's widow, Mary Bullard Eubank,  was still living at her homeplace in Caroline in 1797, for  her youngest son, a brother of John and George, Thomas Eubank, who in 1797 was executor of the estate of Mary Eubank.

Surviving King & Queen and Caroline County records  suggest this Eubank family was closely associated with the Baylor family.

John Baylor, Jr. had grown up on the plantation of his father, John Baylor, Sr., in King and Queen County.   Baylor, Jr. developed his plantation and home at New Market in Caroline County in 1726.  Caroline County was formed in 1727.  The elder and Constable John Eubank, born circa 1720/25, may have been a son of George Eubank, who is mentioned in records of the Fleet and Walker families in King and Queen County in 1763, and in later Caroline County Order Book Records.  He is possibly the George who signed a Religious Petition in 1779.  This George Eubank may have joined John Baylor, Jr. at New Market, as a favored and important member of the Baylor estate.   Margaret's father, Thomas Newman, served as Steward at the New Market plantation. 

John, George, and Ambrose Eubank, and many of their friends and associates in Drysdale Parish in Caroline County, were members of the traditional State supported Episcopal  Church of England. 

John and Margaret settled on a farm in Amherst they would call The Wilderness, located a few miles  up the James River  from the small village of Lynchburg.

Later, in 1784, John and Margaret bought land on the northwest side of Tobacco Row Mountain,  in the area of Ware's Gap and the head of Puppies Creek (Amherst map, above). John's brother, George Eubank and wife Delilah, nee Williams, settled on adjacent property in the Forks of the Buffalo River at Buffalo Springs.   John and Margaret's eldest son, Thomas Newman Eubank, developed the earlier Eubank farm near Bethel at the James River.  (Amherst map, at top)


Ambrose Eubank lived on adjoining property he had bought in 1779.  In 1797, Ambrose moved across the James River to Bedford County. (see Amherst map, below)

Richard Eubank, of references from the Order Books of Caroline County in the 18th Century, very likely is an uncle to John, George, and Ambrose, brother to their father, the elder John Eubank, the Constable, who died in 1778 in Caroline.  Richard is the father of Achilles Eubank.  Achilles was  likely a first cousin to John, George, and Ambrose.  Richard Eubank moved  first to Goochland County, Virginia, and later to the Peaks of Otter in Bedford County. (map, above)

This is the Amherst County area of residence of John Ware and his son Capt. James Ware, and of William Ware, and his son John Ware.  Farther on to the Amherst Courthouse and across the Buffalo River to Glasgow lived the David Shepherd Garland family and the Rose family.

     Probate Order of John Eubank, Sr. from the Caroline County Order Books:

1778 Dec - The Last Will and Testament of JOHN EUBANK, deceased, was proved by the Oaths of JAMES CARTER and JAMES FLETCHER, and ordered to be recorded; On motion of JOHN and GEORGE EUBANK, the Executors therein named, a Certificate is granted them for obtaining a Probate thereof, they having taken the Oath of Executors and entered into and acknowledged a Bond with Security which is ordered to be recorded.

John and Margaret "Peggy" Newman Eubank, George and Delilah Williams Eubank  sold their land in Caroline County, Virginia, near Bowling Green in February, 1780.             

 1780 Feb 10 - A Deed Indented from GEORGE EUBANK and DELILAH his Wife, JOHN EUBANK and PEGGY [MARGARET NEWMAN] his Wife to JOHN LONG  (the said DELILAH and PEGGY being first privately examined) acknowledged and ordered to be recorded. 

1780 Feb 10 - A Deed Indented from GEORGE EUBANK and DELILAH his Wife, JOHN EUBANK and PEGGY his Wife to NICHOLAS LONG (the said DELILAH and PEGGY being first privately examined) acknowledged and ordered to be recorded.

Pre-Revolutionary War in Caroline County, Virginia
A decade before John and George left Caroline County, there had been  religious dissent and political unrest among the citizens of Caroline County. 

The Eubank brothers' close ties of loyalty had been to Caroline County Burgess, Col. John Baylor, who had wealth and influence in the county.  Col. Baylor was a staunch supporter of the Church of England, and as Burgess of the county, had not supported a break with Great Britain. Baylor was voted out of office by the growing call for revolt against England. Col. Baylor died in 1772.  By the time John and George sold their land in early 1780, Caroline County was one of the most active for the  Patriot Cause.  And at that time the War was not going well for the Patriots. 

The Cabell Family
The Governor's Council of Virginia gave English immigrant William Cabell the right to survey and patent 3,200 acres in old Goochland County 173,
land that would be developed in the coming years by the Cabell family - Albemarle and Amherst Counties were formed from this land.

Albert and Shirley Small Collection

Members of affluent families who supported the Episcopal Church or Church of England, and who were living in the Tidewater counties during the years of war, began to move into these far western Virginia counties where the majority would be of support for the Episcopal Church.

The Eubank brothers and the Newman family had been for years closely associated and allied to the influential Baylor family and their estates in Caroline and Spotsylvania Counties.

Albemarle County was formed from Goochland and Louisa Counties in 1744; Amherst formed from Albemarle in 1761.  Cabell descendants developed much of the land in Amherst and were prominent in the political and commercial culture of first Albemarle, and later Amherst, and the later partitioned Nelson County. 

West Amherst County is a beautiful swath of green low hills spreading northwest from Tobacco Row Mountain, before the steep rise of the Blue Ridge Range.
(Jefferson-Fry Map below)  The James River is the border between Amherst and Bedford Counties. 

Is Richard Eubank a brother to John Eubank, Sr.,
who died in 1778 ?

Richard Eubank, whose name appears in early Caroline Order Books, moved from Caroline to Goochland County about 1755.   Richard's son, Achilles Eubank, born 1758, moved with his father Richrd from Goochland to the Peaks of Otter in Bedford County, about ten miles south of the James River.  He moved about the same time Ambrose, John, and George moved to Amherst County in 1780.  According to his pension application papers, Achilles entered his third enlistment in the Revolutionary War from Bedford County in 1781.

John and George Eubank bought their first land in Amherst County on Wilderness Creek at the James River. John later moved farther north in Amherst to the head of Puppies Creek along the valley between Tobacco Row Mountain and the Blue Ridge Range along Horseley's Creek. George moved to the nearby Forks of Buffalo in Amherst County. (Map below)

Albemarle County was formed from Goochland and Louisa Counties in 1744; Amherst formed from Albemarle in 1761.  Cabell descendants developed much of the land in Amherst and were prominent in the political and commercial culture of first Albemarle, and later Amherst, and the later partitioned counties.

John is a member of the Amherst Militia in 1781 
John's name is included on Alexander Brown's Early-Settlers List as being a  member of the Amherst Militia in 1781.  His DAR registration  is through Betti Boatwright McFaul and my first cousin once removed,  Margaret Jacqueline Moore, included on DAR Roster Vol. II, No. 560469.

(Ambrose moved to Bedford in 1797)

John is a Vestryman of Lexington Parish, Amherst County 
Bishop William Meade listed John Eubank among the vestrymen of Lexington Parish in Amherst County.  John and Margaret's children were likely christened in the chapel at Pedlar Mills. 

John and Margaret's children:
Several of the children are named for Margaret's family.  It could be that their oldest child, Thomas Newman Eubank, born August 15, 1777, was named for Margaret's father and John's grandfather.  There is a Thomas Eubank named in the Caroline Order Book. In addition to John and Margaret's child named Thomas, John's brothers, George and Ambrose, also named an older child Thomas Eubank.   This Thomas Eubank may be a son of Richard Eubank of King & Queen County, listed on the 1763 census of the county.

John and Margaret's second child was Lucy Eubank born late 1779 or early 1780, either in Caroline County or after the family moved to Amherst County.

The third child was Elias Mosley Eubank, born c1782.   Elias lived in Nacogdoches County, Texas, a neighbor of his first cousin Ambrose Bullard Eubank, son of George Eubank (b1746 - d 1828).

John Eubank III was born c1785 in Amherst County.  He married Catharine Rose, daughter of the Rev. Robert Rose. They lived in Amherst County.

Ann Newman Eubank -- 

George Eubank was born circa 1790.  He moved to Clark County, Kentucky,  about the time his sister Lucy Eubank Ware moved there.

Richard Newman Eubank was born on December 22, 1792, at the family homestead and farm on Tobacco Row Mountain in Amherst County.  On his 28th birthday, December 22, 1820, he   and Mary Camden Ware were married.   Mary was the daughter of Capt. James Ware and Nancy Garland Pendleton.

Edmund Vauter Eubank

William E. J. "Jett" Eubank, Margaret and John's last child was born about 1804/05.

Margaret died c1809 and John died in 1820  in Amherst County.  
 A few years after Margaret's death, John married Edith Haynes, a widow, in 1812, whose surname was Ellis, of the Ellis family who settled early  in the area.   John died in 1820.  Thomas Newman Eubank, the eldest child, was administrator of the estate.  John died without a will.  Two years after John's death, the siblings sued to receive their share of the estate.  

John Eubank, born c 1750  -  brothers and sisters 
( 1)  George Eubank b 1746  -  George married Delilah Williams of Caroline in the mid-1770's, sold land jointly with brother John and his wife Margaret,  [See order book reference of  Feb. 10, 1780] then moved to Amherst County in 1780 with John and Margaret.  

The names of George's children are important to consider in the research of  this lineage.  George's great grandson, William LaFiew Eubank, in 1940, gave to his daughter, Sallie M. Eubank, wife of Harry Tucker Eubank (Sallie and Harry were third cousins) of Amherst, the names of George and Delilah's children, oldest first: They were Thomas  A. Eubank, James Eubank, William Eubank, George W. Eubank, John Eubank, Ambrose Bullard Eubank, Elizabeth Eubank, and Richard Bullard Eubank. A letter written by  Ambrose B. Eubank from Nacogdoches County, Texas in 1859, reveals also daughters Ann Eubank and Lucy Eubank (Lucy was the second wife of widower Capt. James Ware, whose first wife was Nancy Pendleton Ware. Also, the letter from Ambrose B. Eubank is written to yet a third sister, spinster Delilah Eubank.

(2)  Nancy Eubank  
The Claiborne account is that Nancy married a Mr. Gatewood (no first name given), and  "this [Nancy's] family never moved from the lower county, most probably King & Queen." 

(3) Mary "Mollie" Eubank According to Claiborne, Mollie Eubank married George Saunderson of Caroline and moved to Kentucky.  No date for their move to Kentucky was given in the record, but they may have lived in Amherst a short time then moved on into Kentucky, as the area began to be safe for settlers.  There is an Edward Saunderson living in Caroline in 1782, and a neighbor to John Eubank in Amherst from the late 1780's to 1800. On the 1800 Lexington, Amherst County tax list, among other items, Edward Saunderson was taxed for one stud horse. Edward is likely a relative of George Saunderson.  The Saundersons may also have been employed at the Baylor estate in Caroline.

The records indicate two children of Mollie and George: John Saunderson and George Saunderson. "John Saunderson married and had (1) a son John, who married a Miss Logwood, (2) a daughter, who married a Leftwich, and this family lived in Botetourt County, Virginia, " according to the Claiborne account. 

(4)  Ambrose Eubank, born c1744 -  From the evidence found so far of Ambrose Eubank, he is a brother to John and George.  George named a son Ambrose.  Ambrose Bullard of Caroline is a brother to Mary.  Ambrose Eubank served in the Revolutionary War from Caroline, and may be older than John.

Are John, George, and Ambrose Eubank first cousins of Achilles Eubank, whose father was Richard Eubank, known as "Uncle Dickie Eubank," who rode horseback from Virginia to Clark County, Kentucky, in his later years? 

The Richard Eubank named in the following Caroline County Order Book reference is likely a grandson of Thomas Bullard, whose daughter was Mary Bullard Eubank, wife of John Eubank, Sr.  John and Mary Bullard Eubank were co-executors of the estate of Thomas Bullard :

Caroline County Court, 11th of July, 1782, page 68 -
RICHARD EUBANK and MARY his Wife, Complainants
against John Eubank, Executor of THOMAS BULLARD,
Defendant.  In Chancery.  Dismissed for want of prosecution.

I think the Richard Eubank in this order had lived out of the county for some time, in this case in Goochland County, and was not aware that John Eubank, the executor of Thomas Bullard's estate, had died in 1778, four years before the above court entry.   The Richard Eubank whose name disappears from the order books in 1755 is probably the Richard who moved to Goochland, then to Bedford, was father of Stephen and Achilles.  Both George Eubank of Amherst and Achilles Eubank of Bedford, Virginia, and Clark County, Kentucky, named a son Ambrose. George's son's name is AMBROSE BULLARD. Achilles' son Ambrose is reported in one record to have the middle name, BULLOCK which is similar to BULLARD. The name Bullard through the years may have gotten wrongly transcribed, unless, of course, there is documented proof in the family for the Bullock nameIn his later years, Achilles moved from Clark County, Kentucky to Cooper County, Missouri, with a second wife and family.  There is good evidence that  Nancy Ware, Achilles' young, second wife is the daughter of Lucy Eubank and John Ware.  Lucy was the daughter of  John Eubank and Margaret Newman.  Lucy and John Ware were married in Amherst County in 1796 and later moved to Clark County, Kentucky, and lived near Achilles and Mary Bush Eubank at Four-Mile Creek.  

(5)  Frances Eubank -  Frances, who married James Overstreet, is probably  a sister.  The following reference to Charles Overstreet, probably a son of James, is from the records of Albemarle County published in the Magazine of Virginia Genealogy, Vol.31, No. 1p. 58:

 p. 249.  22 Nov. 1805.  Charles Overstreet & wife, Elizabeth of Albemarle, to David Wood of same, 105a in Amherst on Puppies Creek, purchased  by Overstreet from THOMAS N. EUBANK adj. Henry Harkless & John Taliafero.
      Wit: T. Wood, David J. Lewis, James Starke.

From evidence in early surviving Caroline County records, Charles Overstreet is probably  a cousin to Thomas N. Eubank.
