DESCENDANTS OF ABRAM SAILORSby Jane A. [email protected] these families interest you, you definitely need to contact Phyllis Hackleman for a copy of herbook on the Hacklemans.

Never take anything on the Internet as a fact; consider it a good clue, and do the research toverify it. That goes for my stuff, too, because I am gullible.

Generation No. 11. ABRAM SAILORSwas born Abt. 1710 in Lucerne, Switzerland. He married CATHERINESEYLERIA. She was born Abt. 1715.Notes for ABRAM SAILORS:The descendants claim that John Sailors, born ca. 1756, was 20 years younger than his sisterMary, born ca. 1736 in Germany. She married Michael Hechelman/Hackleman. ElijahHackleman, a descendant, says siblings were Philip, Abram Jr., Leonard, Daniel, and severalothers whose names were no longer remembered, saying it was a "large family of children."

Abram is said to have come from Switzerland in 1737 to settle in Maryland. One source says heand his brothers landed at the Port of New Orleans. Another quotes Strassburger'sPENNSYLVANIA GERMAN PIONEERS, page 42, where among the Palatine passengers of theship "Pennsylvania Merchant," commanded by John Stedman, is one Abram Saler. That boatlanded at Philadelphia 10 Sept 1731 from Dover, and before that from Rotterdam. Other sourcessays our Abram may have settled along the Susquehanna River on the border between Marylandand Pennsylvania.

According to Louis Hasbrouck Sahler's THE GENEALOGY OF THE SAHLERS OF THE USA,an Abraham Sahler of Hesse-Darmstadt settled at Perkioman, where he married Elizabeth Dubois(born 10 Sept. 1724) and had:Issac Sahler.....married Eleanor HartlerAbraham Sahler, Jr...... b. Sept. 1783 Montgomery, PA, married Tryntje van WagenenElizabeth Sahler.....married Robert PattonRachel Sahler.....married John GrossCatherine Sahler.....married Christian GrossDaniel Sahler.....married Elizabeth van WagenenJohn Sahler.....married Ann BarlowThis Abram must have died cir. 1782, since volumes 16 & 17 of PENNSYLVANIA ARCHIVES(series 6) refer to many Sahlor men, with Isaac Sahlor and John Gross taxed for "Sahlor's estate."

L.H. Sahler's GENEALOGY OF THE SAHLER-GROSS FAMILIES (one volume, 38 pages)deals with Abrham Sahler (cir. 1724) of Montgomery, Lancaster, and York Co. PA

Other names that appear in the PENNSYLVANIA ARCHIVES in the 1780's include Conrad

Sahlor, Valentine Sahlor, Matthias Sahlor, Jacob Sahlor, Henry Sailor, Jacob Sailor, FrederickSeiler, Michael Seiler, John Seiler Jr.

Margaret Hofman, COLONY OF NORTH CAROLINA ABSTRACTS OF LAND PATENTS1735-65 (1984) lists:5274.....p. 244 Patent Book 15 Henry Heager 26 Nov. 1757 200 acres Andson Co. joining belowLeonard Seallers in a fork of Killions Creek976.....p. 158 Book 2: Jacob Sellers 23 May 1757 100 acres Duplin Co.4860.....Abraham Sellers 13 March 1756 100 acres Duplin Co. between Hays and Clarksplantations5697.....p. 339 Book 15: Peater Sealer 10 April 1761 240 acres Anson Co. on both sides ofMiddle Branch of Killyn's Creek joining Francis Beatey including his own improvements(There are various other Sellers deeds in this book)

HACKLEMANS IN AMERICA suggests as other children:JOSEPH SALER/SAYLOR/SAILOR, m. KatherinePETER SEALER/SAYLOR/SAHLERSJACOB SELLERS/SAILORSCONRAD SALER/SALLERSMICHAEL SAYLOR/SAILORSWILLIAM SAILOR, entered land on west side of Buffalo Creek, NC, in 1774HENRY SAILOR, resident of Stokes Co. NC in 1810GEORGE LEONARD SAILORS/SAYLOR. A George Leonard Sailors/Saylor was administratorof Peter Saylor's estate in October 1762. George and William Armstrong provided 200 poundssecurity on Gasper Keener's estate. On June 6, 1774, George Leonard, of Tryon (now Lincoln)County, sold land on the middle fork of Killian's Creek which he purchased from UlneckCrowder to Devlad Crites. On May 2, 1782, George Leonard sold to John Rudisill part of a grantto Grasper Keener. George Leonard, now of SC, sold to John Cutfreeterant land on both sides ofLeopard's Creek. (Could George Leonard Sailors be Leonard Sailors?)

Are ANY of these people related to us? Is the tradition of John's father being Abram correct?

Your guess is as good as mine, at this point....

Abraham Saylors> SwitzerlandPosted by: Janel Woodbury Date: July 14, 1999 at 08:41:13In Reply to: Re: Nancy Sailors married John Tyner by JaneLeavellIn my genealogy and notes Abraham Saylors or Zoellers was born 1710 in Lucerne, Switzerland.He married Catherine Seyleria about 1731 in Switzerland. Some say that Seyleria was not hermaiden name, only another variation of Saylors. Abraham came on the ship Harle toPhiledelphia, PA 1 Sep 1736. I have the same children you do listed. My ancestor was LeonardSaylors who married Mary___? Their son Leonard married Amy Gant, their daughter SarahSaylors married Elijah Hickey. Migration from MD or PA to Pendleton, SC to NC then to WhiteCo., TN. Glad to share info.Janel Woodbury.

If this is your first encounter with the records of NC please be aware that the clerks spellednames in any and all ways, even within the same document. You will not be able to use the "find"key in these abstracts. You need to look at each name.The original list is found in NC Legislature Papers, Box #27, Folder 19 Oct 1779, NC Archives.

There were three others: two dated 9 [or possibly 19]October 1779, and one dated 1782.On 4 May 1782 the General Assembly approved the annexation of a portion of Burke Co. toLincoln Co. A further annexation of part of Burke Co. to Lincoln Co. occurred in 1784. The areaannexed in 1784 was the same area that in December 1842 became the new county of CatawbaCo.The original petitions are available at North Carolina Archives filed under the category of"General Assembly Sessions Records."

Generation No. 22. MARY ELIZABETH SAILORS (ABRAM) was born Abt. 1736, and died June 08, 1824 inSouth Carolina. She married MICHAEL HECKLEMAN March 1750/51. He was born Abt. 1720in Germany, and died Abt. 1808 in Abbeville Co., South Carolina.

Notes for MICHAEL HECKLEMAN:A Wabash County, IN, history article on Elijah Hackleman says the name means "little hookman," from the German "hakel," or "little hook."

According to descendant Elijah, Michael Hechleman emigrated to America at age 17 fromGermany and was bound to a Maryland or Pennsylvania farmer for 3 years to cover the cost ofhis passage. Eventually he cleared 60 acres of land and squared his account, and married MarySailors in March, 1751.

One source says Michael and his brothers Abraham and Leonard landed at the Port of NewOrleans.

Others quote Rupp, p. 198, and Strassberger, p. 399, who have a Michael Hackleman emigratingfrom the Wirtemberg, Alsace, and Zeibrucken area and landing Wednesday, Sept. 13, 1749 toPhiladelphia on the ship CHRISTIAN, captained by Thomas Brady, from Rotterdam to Cowes,

England.

From Elijah Hackleman's Diary (with his spelling corrected):"Michael Hackleman was born in Germany about the year 1720. The precise time cannot now beascertained. He emigrated to American in the 17th year of his age and was bound to a Marylandor Pennsylvania farmer for three years to pay his passage. He finally cleared 26 acres of land andsquared the account. He married Mary Sailors in March 1751 and settled on the SusquehannaRiver near the lines between the states of Pennsylvania and Maryland. He was quite illiterate asregards an English Education, could hardly speak the English language so as to be understood.He died some time in the year 1808 in Abbeville District, South Carolina.

Note: Michael Hackleman was born probably in Nassau County, Germany, about 25 miles NorthWest of Frankfort on the River Main and probably East of Koblenz on the Rhine. Some of myGerman neighbors say that there are some Haglomers still living there."

One Indiana county history says 3 brothers sailed from Germany to Mississippi and one, Jacob,with his wife Mary, moved to South Carolina. Michael did have two sons who ended up in theLowndes County, Mississippi area.

Michael and wife Mary settled on the Susquehanna River near the line between Maryland andPennsylvania. He spoke barely understandable English.

"Records of the Williams Township Congregation Churchbook at the Augsburg Confession inSancon at Phillip Schlauch's, not far from the Big Lehigh and forks of the Delaware," inPENNSYLVANIA GERMAN CHURCH RECORDS, Vol. II, Baltimore: GenealogicalPublishing Co.

Johannes Michel Lutz and wife Margaretha.

His name appears on a Burke County, South Carolina petition to have parts of Burke and Rowanformed into a new county, Lincoln. By October, 1770, he appears in Lincoln County, NorthCarolina deeds with wife "Elizabeth."

He had 60 acres and 9 slaves in 96th District, Abbeville, South Carolina in the 1787 tax lists.

One sheetlisted on the payments from people who owed the estate: Cash from John Roberts $12.00, FromBenjamin Ball $12.25, etc. showed 2 slaves (Lydia and Esther) valued at $475.00. There are acouple of interesting items on the disbursement side: To Reuben Brock for 3 gal, 1 quart, 1 pintof Brandy for the sale $3.37. To Archibald Reid, Whiskey for the sale $2.00.

At the ford was a shooting match, with most participants too drunk to warn him thatrecent rains flooded the river. He and a friend plunged in, and John alone drowned, 10 miles NEof Slatesville Court House, Iredell County, North Carolina

3. LEONARD SAILORS (ABRAM) was born Abt. 1748, and died in Anderson, Pendleton,South Carolina. He married MARY ?.

Notes for LEONARD SAILORS:The North Carolina Booklet, Vol. IXThe History of Lincoln CountyBy Alfred NixonAt July Term, 1770, "Thomas Camel came into court and proved that the lower part of his earwas bit off in a fight with Steven Jones, and was not taken off by sentence of law; certified bywhom it may concern." At a later term, "James Kelly comes into open Court of his own free willand in the presence of said court did acknowledge that in a quarrel between him and a certainLeonard Sailor on the evening of the 2nd day of June, 1773, he did bite off the upper part of theleft ear of him, the said Leonard Sailor, who prays that the same be recorded in the minutes of thesaid court." This confession gave James Kelly such standing in the esteem of his Majesty'sJustices that at the same term it was ordered by the Court that James Kelly serve as constable inthe room of George Trout and that he swear in before Thomas Espy, Esq." From the court entriesbiting off ears was a popular way of fighting, but whole ears were at least an outward sign ofhonesty.

The Saylors of Saylors Crossroads Anderson S. C.Posted by: Jackie Story Shaw Date: February 05, 2002 at 15:05:27The Saylors of Saylors Crossroads, Anderson County, South Carolina

...I received this family history several weeks ago and I have reviewed this information, seen thedocumentation concerning the wills and testate papers. Also this information is combined fromthe history written by Albert Bruce Pruitt in 1976, the history of the Ashley Family written in1986, also the research of Cheryl Ann Lowe. I have been to the Mt. Bethel Cemetery andpersonally seen the graves of the family members who are buried there....There is so much family information here and I wanted to share with others who may beresearching. Maybe this will give others a starting place. I have much more concerning thefamilies of William Jasper Sr. and William Jasper Jr. and their families. If anyone hasinformation concerning these families I would love to hear form you.GENERATION NUMBER ONETHE FAMILY OF LEONARD SAYLORS SR AND MARYLeonard and Mary were both born before 1755 according to census records. Albert Bruce Pruittwrote a history of this family and their descendants in 1976 and said it was unclear whereLeonard or Mary may have been born or who their parents were. However today there seems tobe a lot of new documentation that Leonard and Mary lived and owned land in North Carolinabefore moving to South Carolina....Census records indicate Leonard appeared in Pendleton District South Carolina as early as1790. Aside from census records and maybe some land records, according to the author of thishistory, the only South Carolina records of the couple is Leonard’s will dated October 14, 1811and probated on October 29, 1811. The will was filed in a part of Old Pendleton District, whichlater became part of Anderson County....The Estate of Leonard Saylor, Anderson County, Estates Roll 610, South Carolina Archives:Leonard started his will with his name I Leonard Saylor Senior. Leonard signed the will "L S."After bequeathing his soul to his maker and body to dust, Leonard gave most of his belongings tohis wife, Mary. She received a bay filly branded on the right shoulder with a single S; two cowsand calves; all cooking and table furniture; all beds and furniture; loom and it’s furniture; houseand land as long as she remains his widow; sufficient meat and bread for 1 year. Son George’schildren 3 dollars each; daughter Margaret, and daughter Eve, son Abraham and son Leonard wasgiven an equal share of the remaining estate after debts were paid....The personal property of the estate, which was not designated in the will of Leonard’s, weresold on the Second Day of November 1811. Notable among these possessions were Thomas andPriscilla two Negro slaves appraised at one hundred dollars for the pair. Eve Faith, Leonard’sdaughter, bought both of them at a price of one hundred and twenty-two dollars from the estatesale. Also there were four books written in DUTCH, appraised at one dollar each which Abrahampurchased. All the children purchased different items from the estate sale.THE CHILDREN OR LEONARD SAYLOR SR.

Andthat he John Davis did sign his name as a witness at the request of the deceased at the same time.John Harris did appoint Samuel Black as the executor on the 29th day of October 1811.

GENERATION NUMBER TWOTHE FAMILY OF LEONARD SAYLORS JR. AND SARA JOHNSONLeonard Saylors Jr. was born 1786 in North Carolina according to information he gave thecensus taker in 1850. Leonard’s parents were Leonard Saylors Sr. and Mary (Maiden name isunknown). Leonard may have moved with his parents to South Carolina as early as 1790.Leonard died May 14, 1856, 70 years old and a consistent member of the Baptist faith as statedon his tombstone.

Sara was a consistent member of the Baptist faith as stated on her tombstone. Thereare two tombstone located at Mt. Bethel with the above information inscribed in the stone locatedwith some of their children and grandchildren who were buried in the Cemetery. Lenard is howhis name is spelled on his tombstone. However, on all the testate papers filed in AndersonDistrict, South Carolina his name is spelled Leonard. The tombstone cutter must have made amistake with the spelling. Below are picture of the tombstones. Leonard married Sarah Johnsonsometime in the period 1810-1814, judging from the ages of their children. Sarah’s parents were

FARMING WAS THEIR WAY OF LIFELeonard’s farm in the 1850 agriculture census. There were 80 acres of improved land, 100 acresunimproved with land value of $750 and $150 in implements. There were two horses, threecows, six cattle, five sheep, and 30 swine, with live stock value of $180. Fifty pounds ofpotatoes, three bales cotton, six bushels beans, eighty bushels sweet potatoes, one hundred fourpounds of butter, twelve pounds of honey, $30 home manufacture, and $40 in slaughteredanimals.

LEONARD SAYLORS DIES WITH NO WILLLeonard Saylors Jr. left no will. On July 14, 1856 Herbert Hammond, Esquire Ordinary ofAnderson District, appointed as administrators of the estate three of Leonard Saylors sons JohnB. Saylors, William J. Saylors, and David W. Saylors....John B. Saylors (son of Leonard, the deceased) supplied a letter on July 14, 1856 to HerbertHammond Ordinary of Anderson District requesting the estate of Leonard Saylors Jr. be sold ordivided. Leonard’s estate consisted of 183 acres more or less, on the waters of Bear Creekbounded by Col. James Robinson, James Drake and others. This land was located in the MartinTownship of Anderson County, which is near the Mt. Bethel Church Community. The land wasappraised at $1000.00. In his letter to the court John B. Saylors list those who are entitled toreceive their distributive share first Sarah Saylors, widow of the deceased, Nimrod Saylors, JohnDove and his wife, Elizabeth Dove, George W. Dove and his wife, Sarah Dove. John B. Saylors,William T. Shaw and his wife, Nancy Shaw, Nicholas Callaham and his wife Anna Callaham.David W. Saylors, and William J. Saylors. The three first named live beyond the limits of thisstate and the remaining five reside in Anderson District.Sara (his widow) received what was known as lot number one, containing 84 acres appraised at$376.00. The remainder known as lot number two, containing 154 acres was appraised at$752.00 and the three sons recommended the land to be sold at Anderson Court House on acredit of 12 months. Lot number 2 was bid off by John B. Armstrong, for David W. Saylors andWilliam J. Saylors at $600.00 with that being the highest bid, on Dec. 5, 1856....The appraisers appointed to appraise his property were James Drake, Enock H. Drake, andJames Robinson.

Bethel community. William Jasper theiryoungest son married Lucinda Ashley the same year that Leonard died and most probably theylived in the home with Sarah.

GENERATION NUMBER THREE THE FAMILY OF WILLIAM JASPER AND LUCINDAASHLEY SAYLORSWilliam was born July 7, 1834 the youngest of nine children and the forth son of LeonardSaylors Jr. and Sarah Johnson Saylors. In 1850 William is listed in the census as attending schoolduring the previous year....William, who was 22 years old, married Lucinda C. Ashley in 1856. The same year his fatherLeonard died. Lucinda, 21 years old, was the daughter of Edward Ashley and Elizabeth Able.The picture is of William and Lucinda made around 1910....Lucinda was born on January 24, 1835. Her family, the Ashley’s lived in the same area that theSailors lived and both families attended Mount Bethel Baptist Church. Shortly after the birth oftheir third child, the Civil War arrived and William was going to enlist. At the insistence of hiswife, the new baby was named William Jasper Junior.

THE CIVIL WAR YEARSThe great struggle came as a thunderbolt from the storm that had been brewing for some time. Itwas neither welcomed nor expected but the people of the South responded to the call to armswith earnestness and decision. It was South Carolina who took the initiative. The Confederacywas formed February 8,1861. The Confederates troops aimed their guns at Fort Sumter in SouthCarolina and fired the first shot that began the Civil War on an April morning in 1861...Never has such patriotism and such zeal to help been shown of the South. They wiped all tearsaway and started to work. The women of Mount Bethel Community, just like all the otherwomen in communities all across the South, they forgot their fears and anxiety and began tomake comfortable outfits for their sons and husbands. Everything was made by hand. Womenwere busy with their needles, men with their rifles, both preparing for a great and common cause.Young men, as much as they disliked leaving loved ones at home, were thrilled with the warspirit and longed to reach Columbia where companies and regiments were formed...William enlisted at the Anderson Court House, December 28, 1861. Then he was transferred toColumbia. William was placed in Company A of the 12th Regiment South Carolina Volunteersalong with many of his neighbors and kinfolk from the Mount Bethel community...This regiment was first sent to defend Charleston Harbor, which seemed almost mandatory forSouth Carolina troops. In the spring of 1862, the regiment was sent to Richmond as a part of

Gregg’s Brigade so named for their commander General Maxcy Gregg. This brigade participatedin all the battles of the Army of Northern Virginia until the surrender. The brigade is mostnotable mentioned for service during the first day of the Second Manassas, where about 50% ofthe men were killed or wounded, and during the first day of Gettysburg. General Gregg wasunintentionally killed, by his own troops, at Fredricksburg. The regiment was then commandedby General Pender until Gettysburg, at which time the boys on the other side of the line woundedGeneral Pender. After Gettysburg, General Samuel McGowan commanded the regiment.Through all these battles, William Saylors’ record is very scarce. There is one mention that heserved as guard for horses of Hampton’s Leigon during Gettysburg, along with other of hisregiment. Then William was captured about a week before the surrender. This happened at theBattle of Five Forks southwest of Petersburg. The generals in command were off having friedchicken, and most of the 12th Regiment was captured. William was sent to Hart’s Island in theHarbor of New York City. He was finally released in June 1865, about two months after thesurrender....During the war, in August 1862, William received a furlough to visit home. During his visit,his only daughter Sarah became sick with Dyptheria. Sarah died August 20, 1862 and Williamhad to return to the war immediately after the funeral. Little Sallie, as Sarah was called, wasburied in the Mount Bethel Cemetery near the graves of her Sailors grandparents because thiswas the only site available on such short notice. Because he was on furlough at this time, Williammost probably missed the Second Battle of Manassas where so many of his regiment and brigadewere killed or wounded....Meanwhile back home in the Mount Bethel Community, families were struggling just as theywere all across the south. Most families had farms to maintain and with no men folk around tohelp. The women and small children had to take on the responsibilities of running the farm,tending to the farm animals and equipment, working the fields to prepare for crops, andpreserving food. As you can see feeding the family became a daily struggle. Also, soon after thewar had began all the seaports of the Southern States were blockaded. Everything went upenormously in price and what little dry goods and groceries that were available soon sold. Therewas a great scarcity in cloth and sewing notions, like needles and buttons, grain, sugar, coffee,tea, salt, soda, castor oil, paper and envelops. Then commenced the lesson of thrift, make shiftand invention that developed so wonderfully during the struggle. Most families wore the samecloths for four years, thread bare and patched many times also they used thorns from the wildlemon bush for pins and buttons had to be made out of persimmon seeds; Grain had to be raisedand ground into flour; people substituted parched wheat and rye for coffee; sweet potatoes, cutinto tiny squares and dried in the sun were used for sugar; dried leaves of blackberry, sassafrasroots, spice wood, and other herbs were used for tea; to have salt Lucinda like all of herneighbors would dig up the ground in the smokehouse, where the salt had dripped from the meat,which hung above. The dirt was put into a hopper and dipped down into a vessel then boiled,getting the sediment, which was a brown salt. Soda, too, was scarce; it had to be made by burningcloth using one-half pint of castor oil. Castor Oil also was scarce and was kept in a secret hidingplace. Letters were written on any kind of paper they were able to get and envelops were madeout of wall paper or any paper blank on one side. Ink was made of oak balls or walnut juice...Then came a time when few things could be bought with Confederate money and every onebartered with everyone else. It is said that one woman swapped 30 yards of home spun cloth forone- half-pint of castor oil.

..News from the army was precious and when anyone in the community received a letter from asoldier it would be sent around to all the neighbors and read so that every one might keep up withthe operation of the army....Mount Bethel Baptist Church was a source of hope and faith for the small community duringthe struggles, the adversity, and the sorrow that invaded the life of it members during thesedifficult times that were consequences brought about from this war....Lucinda, like all the other wives, lit their homes with tallow, wax candles and even pine knotsduring the late evening, as the family read from their Bible and prayed to God to bring their lovedones home safely....Lucinda’s children were just babies and she had to depend on her sisters, Millie AshleyMurdock, Lize Ashley, and Sarah Jane Ashley Mitchell to help out and occasionally they wouldgive her food. William’s family lived nearby also, and they helped as they could. Just providingfor the needs of your own family was almost all anyone could do during these difficult times....The War ended on April 9, 1865. William was released from prison about two months later andhe walked home with two of his friends. William also had a Springfield rifle he was bringinghome. When the three were a little way north of Anderson, William announced he would have tosit down and rest a while. The other two men were younger and eager to get home being so closeand they left William sitting. In a little while William caught up with them, before they got home.William’s family was worried that he might have been killed, since there was little word aboutthe people who had been captured and the people from Lee’s and Johnston’s Armies had alreadysurrendered and most were home. The family saw William coming down the road and ran towelcome him home. But he stopped them and yelled that he had lice. He told them to put out awash pot and some clean clothes by the barn for him to use. After he washed and dressed, theyburned his uniform that Lucinda had made before the war, because it was infested with lice....While William was in the war he developed a childhood disease called the Mumps. Forchildren the disease is uncomplicated with about a week of recovery. However, for an adult malethe Mumps can be a serious illness, leaving the adult male sterile, unable to father children.William and Lucinda only had the three children even though they tried to have more childrenafter he returned from the war.

HOW SAILORS CROSS ROADS CAME TO BE THEIR Home...William bought the first part of the land at Saylors Crossroads, the intersection of S C highway185 and 284, in the following way. The land was for sale at an auction. Another man outbidWilliam. The man later met William and remarked, “You really wanted that land.” He then madea deal to trade the land to William for $400.00 and a shotgun, which William had, and the manadmired. The deal was made and William owned the first part of his land. This part later went tohis younger son William J. Saylors, Jr. William later bought the adjacent land across the roadwith the understanding that his two sons would share equally in paying for that land. This secondplot was later given to William’s older son John Thomas Saylors.

THE FAMILY OF WILLIAM AND LUCINDA SAYLORS...The old house is the Saylors home place located at Saylors Cross Roads in the Mount BethelCommunity. Which was the site of numerous Family Reunions over the years. William built theirhome at Saylors Crossroads. He started with one room then built additions, as more room wasneeded. In the beginning the kitchen was separate with a dirt floor. William and Lucinda began

with a small family of two boys; little Sallie died as a young child. However, as you can see thefamily soon multiplied producing twenty-three grandchildren. Many of the grandchildren livednearby and always filled their home with laughter and childhood amusement. They referred toWilliam as “Pap” and Lucinda as “Mam”. The photo above was their family; Pap and Mam are inthe center and he has a long white beard. John Thomas and his family are on the left side andWilliam Jasper Jr. and his family are on the right side. This photo was taken at the home ofWilliam Jasper Jr. around 1910-1911. Cheryl Ann Lowe Haguewood, the daughter of WayneClark Lowe graciously shared this print. The original picture belonged to Marvin Lowe, thefourth child of Bessie Saylors.

FARMING WAS THEIR WAY OF LIFE..William was a farmer and his farm was listed as following in the agriculture census forAnderson, South Carolina. 1860 William had zero acres; perhaps he used some of the acres of hisbrother David Washington Saylors. There was $75. in implements, one horse, two cows, threecattle, 7 swine, with livestock value of $50. Production was seventy- five bushels corn, one balecotton, twenty bushels beans, fifty pounds of butter, one ton hay, $10. Home manufacture, and$40 in slaughter....By 1870, William’s farm had progressed all the way to ten whole acres improved land withvalue of $200 and $5 in implements. There were one horse, one cow, two cattle, four Sheep, twoswine, with livestock value $114. Production fifty-two pounds of butter, $25 home manufacture,$25 in slaughter, with total value of $ 262...Then in 1880 William is listed with 40 acres improved land, implements, $10 in building repair,$45 spent for fertilizer, livestock value of $183, and production value $772. There were twomules, two cows, two cattle, one calf, four swine, and nine chickens. Production was fifty poundsbutter, fifty-two dozen eggs, and fourteen acres corn yielding one-hundred-fifty bushels, twoacres cotton yielding ten bales, twenty bushels peas, twenty-five bushels sweet potatoes, andfifteen cords of wood sold for $22....William died April 10, 1912 and was buried in Mt. Bethel Cemetery. He was 78 years old andhad lived about 35 years longer than his brother JB. He lived in the same area all of his adult life....Lucinda lived long enough to receive a pension for her husband’s service in the Civil War. Shereceived twenty-nine dollars in 1916, thirty dollars in 1917, and thirty-two dollars in 1919 orninety-one total for the final three years of her life. Lucinda died on November 10, 1919, and wasburied beside her husband in Mt. Bethel Cemetery.

Bethel for 49 years and a deacon for 40 years, died in April of 1912, and resolutions ofrespect to his memory were drawn up in the church minutes.Source: Recorded on page 6 and 13 of the History of Mount Bethel Baptist Church 1836-1982

Notes for JOHN SAILORS:Elijah Hackleman's REMINISCENCES says:"At the commencement of the dispute of the Colonies and Great Brittain [sic], the neighborhoodin which Sailors lived from its remoteness from seaboard, and from the difficulty of obtainingnews, remained tranquil and peacible [sic] for a long time. Finally people began to take sides,and controversy sprang up. It was understood that there was to be a meeting of some kind at astore at the crossroads in the neighborhood. It was generally understood that there would bedifficulty at that time. Finally the day of the meeting arrived, and the whole surrounding country,by common consent, rushed together at the store at the crossroads, men, women, and children.Some came armed, others came merely through curiousity to see the crowd. Among the latterwas the subject of this sketch, having no idea as he afterwards related, that there would be anytrouble, and in crossing a cornfield on his way, he cut a cornstick cane, and carried it along withhim, supposing it would answer every purpose as a military weapon for him on that occasion.

But mark his astonishment, when he came in sight of the store. He saw squads of men riding inall directions, some dashing up the road, some rushing a cross the fields, and presently the sharpcrack of rifles from almost every fence corner before him, and also from the woods, and bushesjust across the little field, came the quick response.

Then John Sailor stood a moment in amazement at the scene before him, then flashed across hismind the appaling [sic] fact, that WAR had actually commenced in the Western PioneerSettlements of North Carolina. In this moment of consternation he cast his eye on the weapon inhis hand, A CORNSTOCK CANE.

There turning on his heel, fled from the scene of carnage, making his way home as fast aspossible, taking down his trusty rifle and putting it in order to defend his country.

Prior to this time, what cared the hardy Western Pioneer of North Carolina for the paltry tax on apound of tea? Why the whole country for miles around would not use a pound of tea in sixmonths.

True they occasionally feasted on tea, but it was made of spice brush or sassafras root.

This first contest for Liberty in the Pioneer Settlements of North Carolina has almost faded awayfrom the memory of man. It has always since been known as the "Battle of the Old Store" foughtby Whigs and Tories, friends and nieghbors [sic] of former years, and here for the first timemeeting each other as enemies on the field of Battle.

Here was laid the foundation for hard capacity for self defence that afterward showed itself onthe battlefield. Ramsour's Mill and King's Mountain, in both of which the subject of this sketchwas a participant...."

You will not be able to use the "find"key in these abstracts. You need to look at each name.The original list is found in NC Legislature Papers, Box #27, Folder 19 Oct 1779, NC Archives. Iabstracted this data in 1982. I later found the data listed in:"Burke County, North Carolina Land Records 1779-1790 and Important Miscellaneous Records1777-1800, Volume II." Edith Warren Huggins and published 1981. Mrs. Huggins' four-volumeseries of Burke Co. are still available from Southern Historical Press Inc., P.O. Box 738, Easley,South Carolina 19641-0738.(Katherine Sullivan sully at vnet.net was kind enough to furnish the following information) Thefirst known petition was dated 25 December 1778 and presented to the General Assembly on 23January 1779 (the one you have listed). There were three others: two dated 9 [or possibly 19]October 1779, and one dated 1782.On 4 May 1782 the General Assembly approved the annexation of a portion of Burke Co. toLincoln Co. A further annexation of part of Burke Co. to Lincoln Co. occurred in 1784. The areaannexed in 1784 was the same area that in December 1842 became the new county of CatawbaCo.The original petitions are available at North Carolina Archives filed under the category of"General Assembly Sessions Records."

http://www.gengateway.com/genealogy/zilpah.htm.....Zilpah was the mother of our ancestor, Fielding. Zilpah means "vanishing" in Hebrew. Herhusband's name is unknown at this time. Her husband was probably was Thomas and her maidenname may have been Fields with Obediah being either her brother or father. Obediah Fields'estate was administered in 1802 in the Abbeville District. His wife's name was Catherine.Douglas Burton made bond and Thomas Osborn inventoried her estate. A Thomas Lacey joinedthe militia in Abbeville and served under Lt. William Conaway and Captains John Lindsay andJohn Norwood during 1781 and 1782. He lost a horse and saddle. In addition, he supplied 150pounds of pork for the militia. In July, 1791, Thomas Lacy and Obediah Fields were dismissedfrom the Turkey Creek (of Saluda) Baptist Church. (This church was constituted January 29,1785.) In the 1800 census, Zilpah is listed at "Sils" and has with her 2 males under 10, 2 males10-16. She is listed as being 26-45. Zilpah wrote her will October 18, 1804 and it was provedJanuary 7, 1805 in Abbeville Co., SC. "...I dispose of in manner and form following to each ofmy daughters viz Nancy one shilling sterling, to my daughter Elizabeth one shilling like money,to my son Charles one shilling sterling, to my son Caleb one shilling sterling but first theproperty to be sold at twelve months credit and after paying the aforesaid the estate to be equallydivided between my two sons Stephen and Fields and I do nominate my worthy friends JohnOakley and John Cunningham to see this my last will and testament performed and fulfilled andas to my son, Fields, I leave him to the disposal of Executors to what they think best for hisbenefit and I do appoint these my executors to collect from B____ M_____ on account of his______. Tom seven dollars and 37 1/2 cents from David McWhiter three dollars and 82 centsand dispose of it for to defray their expenses or otherwise as they shall think best." Witnesseswere William L. Paris and Douglas Burton. Some of Zilpah's possessions included: 1 set ofwashing spoons, 2 chairs, bed clothes, cotton, a petticoat, 1 bedstock, 1 lot of clothes, a sifter, 6spoons knives and forks, 2 pairs of cards, 1 basket, lumber, a quantity of corn, some leather, aspinning wheel, 4 reeds and 2 pairs of harnesses, a loom and a cow and calf. It is not known whoZilpah's daughters, Nancy and Elizabeth married however they were probably the oldest andmarried by 1800 for they were not listed with her in the census of that year. Fielding and his

brother Charles moved to Franklin Co., Indiana by 1811. The "Franklin County History Atlas"says "at Brookville, there were Lacy's on the west fork". In 1811, Charles had one horse and wastaxed $.50 on himself and 37 1/2 cents for his horse. In 1817, Charles is the only Lacy inFranklin Co., Indiana to appear on the tax list. On March 2, 1819, Charles and his wife, Patsy,sold land in the SW corner of Township 14, range 12, section 20 in Fayette County, Indiana for$2000.00. He had gotten this land in a Cincinnati land grant. The Fayette County, Indiana Historyhas the following: "In March, 1819, Charles Lacy came to Connersville. He did not bring hisfamily with him. He came for the purpose of building a cabin and putting out a small field ofcorn. The implements brought with him were carried on horses, pack-saddle fashion." Anotherbrother, Stephen settled in Hamilton Co., OH before coming to Indiana. In the 1820 census ofHamilton Co., Stephen lists his age as 26-45. He is still residing in Hamilton County in MiamiTownship in 1830 and his age is listed as 40-50. The first record found for Stephen in FranklinCo., Indiana was on March 1, 1850 when be bought land in Township 11, range 13, section 15 onSt. Mary's Road there. Whether Charles and Patsy remained in Franklin Co. is unknown. Theonly Charles Lacy listed in the 1820 census lived in Delaware County, Indiana and was 26-45years old. This Charles lists two males under 10, 1 male 10-16, 4 females under 10, 1 female10-16 and 1 female 26-45. In the 1830 census of Hamilton Co., OH there is a Charles listed. Thewhereabouts of Caleb is unknown. There was a Caleb Lacy in the 1820 census of Lincoln Co.,TN and another in the 1840 census of St. Clair Co., IL. FIELDING AND MARTHA (GLOVER)LACY Fielding was born between 1790 and 1797 in South Carolina. The exact date is not knownand three different references list him as different ages. Martha was born in February of 1801......Fielding and his brother Charles moved to Franklin Co., Indiana by 1811. On March 13, 1813,Fielding Lacy was a private in Captain William T. Huff's Company of the 7th Regiment of theIndiana militia. This was the date he mustered in and the expiration of his service was June 13,1813. He was paid $8.00 per month with the total pay being $25.29. On August 30, 1816Fielding married Martha Glover at Brookville in Franklin Co., Indiana.

11. BENJAMIN SAILORS (JOHN, ABRAM) was born 1780 in Abbeville District, SouthCarolina, and died in Fort Des Moines, Polk County, Iowa. He married (1) MARGARET ?. Hemarried (2) KERVILLES EVANS July 23, 1822 in Rush County, Indiana.

Notes for BENJAMIN SAILORS:Married four times. Two known children.Benjamin lived some time in Tennessee, thenKentucky, then inFranklin Co., IN. Of his children little is known

Hi, I hope one of you can help me witth the downline past Benjamin. My cousin and I disagreeon the line that we are in. She shows us in your line but I don't. Do you show a John B Saylor(Sailor) who was married to Mary Howard as the son of Benjamin. IShe shows Benjamin marriedfour times where I show two and possilby three. One of the wifes that I show has the same lastname as one that she list but a different first name. The one I show is Curilla Evans and she islisted as wife on the censuses that I have, and she shows a Kervillez Evans. The Benjamin that Ishow in my line was a brick mason and according to her note he owned a tavern. The one I havewas from a strict Presbyterian back ground and I'm inclined to think that that doesn't fit in with atavern owner. Any help that you can give us is greatly appreciated. Her Benjamin was born 1780,in Abbeyville District SC and My Benjamin was born June 13, 1781 in Charleston SC. I don'tknow where Abbeyville District is. This could be the sme Benjamin and if it is I can provide a lotof information about his line. It just doesn't seem to me to match up. Help! Elaine Christensen,Oklahoma City, OK

Elijah Hackleman says, "A man of great energy " and he was a "fit speciman of Pioneer times."Married four times, once to Kervilles Evans on 23 July 1822 in Rush County, IN. Kids includeSally (married her cousin Thomas Pogue), Fanny (married Rueben Lines, died 25 March 1884),and John (a doctor, died shortly before 1878. He was a son of a later wife). Ben died in Fort DesMoines, Polk County, Iowa.

Phyllis Hackleman's book says "Benjamin left South Carolina to live in Tennessee for a while.From here he brought his two daughters to Kentucky, then to Franklin County, Indiana. In 1821,he moved to Rush County, Indiana. Here, in August of 1823, he was granted a license to operatea tavern. Benjamin lived in Indianapolis, Marion County, Indiana, for a while, then moved nearDes Moines, Polk County, Iowa, where he died."

I hadn't thought of a Tavern being a hotel so I guess that works. He was a businessman and astone mason. In some of my paper work it shows him one of the first to own land in theSaylorville area because he provided food and supplies to the military fort before the Indianswere moved from their land. In every thing that I have and there are quite a few articles aboutJohn B Saylor, there was never a mention of him being a doctor. He contracted to build the firstCounty Court House of Polk County, and I guess was pretty much the backbone of thatsettlement. He went as a suttler with the Civil War troops from Iowa, He was too old to serve inthe war, and contracted some kind of disentery at Vickburg from living for days at a time on wild

fruits, berries etc and died in Vivksburg, MS in 1863. I just can't see how Dr John and Our JohnB. Could be one and the same but I have a lot of information from John B. to the present to share.The wives that I show for Benjamin were Margaret ???, who he married about 1800 when hewould have been only 19. Margaret after 1816. Margaret was the mother of, Elizabeth, MargaretAnn, Sarah, John B., Thomas T., Hiram H., Mary, and Benjamin S., the second wife I have isCurilla Evans, who was only 18 to Benjamin's 42 when they married and they had Jehu Perkins,Martha, Noah Noble, Emily Caroline, and I have several other names including the Fanny andSally, but show them with this mother. . They are Conrad, Jane, Nancy, Snyder.( I Just foundwhere I got these names of the other children). Most of my inforamtion is from family journalsand Bibles etc. this list of Children were from a manual family tree from the 1960 complied by adescendent of Thomas Jefferson Saylor, grandson of Benjamin. These children were listed in thehome on a census ??? and she questions that they may have been grandchildren that lived withthem at that time. They are all listed with the last name of Saylor. If he married Margaret at 19and was married 1800-1816+ and married Curilla at in 1823 and had another pascel of kids, andthe 1850 Census of Polk County shows him still married to Curilla.Was there one before he was19, the one you show as the first wife?. He might have had a period of 7 years between Margaretand Curilla for another wife.

In an article written by Avis Saylor McQuiston, daughter of John and grand-daughter ofBenjamin Saylor, she wrote, "My grandfather Benjamin Saylor and family were the first to settlein the fall of 1845. They settled in the Fort Cory Grove area and Three Rivers County, IA. Myfather John B Saylor's place was a stopping place for the immigrants. He first kept the post officenorth of Des Moines. He was never known to charge for a nights lodging nor for favor he couldconfer upon them but was likely to give them a ham or a sack of seed or other things that theymight need."

In another document it says" Benjamin Saylor, the father of John B., came to Polk County andsettled near his son soon demonstrated that he was an active and public-spirited citizen. At thecounty election in 1846 he was chosen as one of the three county commissioners and dischargedhis duties too the general satisfaction of the people. The first meeting of the commissioners washeld in a log cabin April 13, 1846 and one of their first orders was that the eagle side of the halfdollar should be used as the County Seal. He was an active member of the Settlers Claim Club,really a law and order league, and ably performed his part in forwarding the interests of thecounty." Thius is from "Cityof DesMoines and Polk County" Vol 11, The S.J. Clarke PublishingCompany, 1911 Pages 1073-1074

Benjamin's oldest son by Curilla Evans, Jehu Perkins was born in 1823 in Indiana, whichmatches the dates that you have for Benjamin there.

A letter from another "cousin" written in 1979 to my mother show Benjamin Saylor Sr. was bornin South Carolina according to a 1850 County Census and was shown to be 69 years of age. He isnot in the census record os 1856 in Polk County, but do not know when, where he died or wasburied.

The notes that I have from the descendent written in the 1960 doesn't show Benjamin being the

son of John, grandson of Abraham. This line goes to Benjamin's father being Henry, whose fatherwas Jacob (1740-1800), whose father was Jacob B. (1701-1796) and back to Jacob (Seiler) babout 1680. This is very confusing because all the rest sems to correspond with minor differencesafter Benjamin.

Let me know what you think and if you need some of what I have let me know. Thanks forresponding Elaine----- Original Message -----From: Little CalamityTo: Elaine ChristensenSent: Tuesday, April 24, 2001 6:46 PMSubject: Re: Descendents of Abram Sailors, John Sailors, Benjamin Sailors

Phyllis Hackleman's book says "Benjamin left South Carolina to live in Tennessee for a while.From here he brought his two daughters to Kentucky, then to Franklin County, Indiana. In 1821,he moved to Rush County, Indiana. Here, in August of 1823, he was granted a license to operatea tavern. Benjamin lived in Indianapolis, Marion County, Indiana, for a while, then moved nearDes Moines, Polk County, Iowa, where he died."

Sounds to me like they DO match up. That John must be the one you have marrying MaryHoward. And Kervillez/Curilla are practically identical. Names get really weird spellings,especially in census and government records. I have an ancestor named Bernard Brady, and heshowed in in a census as Barnhart Brady...which only makes sense if you say his name with abroad Irish drawl. Also, a tavern in those days was a place that provided a place to sleep and foodto eat, as well as liquor--rather like a cheap hotel, not just a bar.

I'd love to see what data you have!

Hi, I hope one of you can help me witth the downline past Benjamin. My cousin and I disagreeon the line that we are in. She shows us in your line but I don't. Do you show a John B Saylor

(Sailor) who was married to Mary Howard as the son of Benjamin. IShe shows Benjamin marriedfour times where I show two and possilby three. One of the wifes that I show has the same lastname as one that she list but a different first name. The one I show is Curilla Evans and she islisted as wife on the censuses that I have, and she shows a Kervillez Evans. The Benjamin that Ishow in my line was a brick mason and according to her note he owned a tavern. The one I havewas from a strict Presbyterian back ground and I'm inclined to think that that doesn't fit in with atavern owner. Any help that you can give us is greatly appreciated. Her Benjamin was born 1780,in Abbeyville District SC and My Benjamin was born June 13, 1781 in Charleston SC. I don'tknow where Abbeyville District is. This could be the sme Benjamin and if it is I can provide a lotof information about his line. It just doesn't seem to me to match up. Help! Elaine Christensen,Oklahoma City, OK

Notes for WILLIAM SIMPSON SAILORS:The Rice cemetery also includes the Howell and Saylors cemeteries, and is located just across thePutnam/White County line from Burgess Falls State Park. The following list of those buriedthere was compiled in 1983 by Mrs. Nancy Massa Goolsby and her daughter, Mrs. Betty GoolsbyDoyle. Betty Doyle provided this compilation to the author in 1994. After much careful and

painstaking research, the data was updated, and is herein presented. This cemetery record is mostvaluable as many of the monuments identified in 1983 are no longer there, having been removedby a vandal. It is rumored that the markers were removed "to make it easier to mow". Removingand / or destroying grave monuments is a felony. It is not known if the creature responsible forthis reprehensible act was ever prosecuted.

Dear Sir:

.....Not having any reply to my letter of December 22, I would like to correct a mistake I made intelling you about the colony of families that immigrated from North Carolina to Licking River,Kentucky, they were all on foot, but each had from one to three pack horse, and carried whatprovisions they could.

.....In 1870 my brother L.E. Lines, and myself went from Humbolt, Kansas to Fredonia, Kansas, Iwent to a house on our way of travel for some milk, this happened to be your fathers house, hadnot heard from them since he left Henry County, Indiana, also saw you mother at the time, butnever saw them since, brother L.
