William Jr., a farmer, bought land in several parcels along Tomlinson's Run. This land was sold in 1812 to John Hunter by the heirs of the original patentee, Benjamin Johnston Sr. In 1831 David
Pugh and his brother, Peter, bought a portion of this land from Hunter. David paid for and held 5/6ths of the purchase; Peter, 1/6th. (D. Bk. 9, p. 370, Brooke)
In 1836 David
Pugh and his wife, Mary
Snowden, (William Snowden's sister) sold their 5/6ths interest in 42 and 3/4 acres to her brother William, and that same year William was able to buy directly from John Hunter an additional 39 and 1/2 acres adjoining. (D. Bk. 11, p. 392, BiFooke) In 1846 and 1847 he acquired a tract of 14 and 1/2 acres in two purchases, one half from David and Mary Ingram, the other half from Eli Midcalf. (D. Bk. 12, p. 369; D. Bk. 16, p. 242, Brooke) He finally cleared the title to the original 42 + acres when he bought the remaining 1/6th interest in the land from his wife's brother, David
Pugh, son of Peter. (D. Bk. 15, p. 460, Brooke) These holdings, which took more than ten years to acquire, and amounting to 96 + acres, were in William's estate when he died.
This land abutted land held by Hiram Murray and John
Pugh, and William with these two men petitioned the
Hancock Co. Court to view and lay out a road between New Manchester (Pughtown), Va. and Hookstown, Pa. on 8 May 1854. At the Sept. Court other members of the
Pugh family along the proposed right-of-way offered to maintain the road if the county would build it. However, the Nov. Court rejected the road application and ordered the original petitioners to pay the cost of the Review and Application. A miscarriage of justice, it would seem, since this county road was in the interest of better movement in and out of the community, and later inhabitants finally built it at a greater cost, in order to have access to major national roads west.
William
Snowden and his wife Mary are believed to be buried in Flats Cem. The loss of so many stones makes it impossible to authenticate this family tradition.

The Petition For a New State (1776-80) includes William Snowden's name, also his father, Joseph Sr.'s, and brothers', David and Joseph Jr. This does not mean that William was of legal age at that time,for it is recognized by students of the document that the names of several known minor children were signed to the documents.1
His father Joseph and brother David are found on the tax lists for Wash. Co., Pa., Strabane Twp. in 1783, but William's name does not appear until 1793. The family were then taxpayers in
Canton Twp.; for their lands were in the extreme southwest section of Strabane Twp., and this section was cut off to form
Canton Twp. in 1791.
William is enumerated in the 1790 U.S.C. of Wash. Co., Pa. as head of a household with 1 male 16 and over and 2 females In 1800 he is on the tax lists for
Brooke Co., Va., which includes those over 21 years of age. He is found in the 1810, 1820 and 1830 census schedules, but is not found in the 1840. (
Brooke Co.) The 1830 lists him as between 50 and 60 years of age.
He appears to have left Pa. sometime in or after 1794, at which time he was still in Wash. Co. when he signed a court summons intended for his brother, Joseph Sndwden Jr. to appear in court over a land dispute. Instructions to the messenger delivering the summons indicate that William lived I mile from the Wash. Co. Court House at that time.2
In D. Bk. 2 B, p. 495, Wash. Co., Pa., dated 23 Apr. 1795, Joseph
Snowden and wife Sarah of
Canton Twp., Wash. Co. sold to David Moreton, land lying near town of
Washington on Chartiers Creek: "whereon David
Snowden the younger lived," containing 141 1/2 acres. This is the same tract bought by Joseph from John Dodd, 13 Dec. 1788. The deed of sale on p. 495 carries the signatures of Joseph and Sarah, but interlined at the bottom in different penmanship are the names of William
Snowden and wife Anne, Rachel
Snowden and Isaac Leet as witnesses. These names may have been added to the document later to verify and substantiate the transaction, since it was filed 17 Jan. 1818 or 23 years after the sale had been made.
To date I have not been able to find any records of William's having served in the Wash. Co. Militia although all his brothers did. This might indicate that he was the youngest of the sons. Family tradition is that they were bur. in Flats Cem., but so many stones are missing that this can not be authenticated. A study of the U.S.C. enums indicates that the family had at least eight children; not all of them can be identified.

GENERATION ONE
JOSEPH
Snowden -THE PATRIARCH
Prior to the Revolutionary War, early territorial disputes developed between the colonies of Virginia and
Pennsylvania over ownership of the western lands lying beyond the Alleghenies and extending to the
Ohio River. Conditions grew so chaotic that between 1776 and 1780 the settlers circulated petitions and sent them to the Continental Congress, asking that a new state be established out of this land. The names of David, William, and Joseph
Snowden are found on these documents. Joseph is found in three places on the petition, likely representing both Sr. and Jr. (1) The
Snowden family chose to settle on part of this disputed territory. The early Yohogania Co., Va. records show Josiah (sic)
Snowden was farming in that county by 25 March 1778, when he asked that his cattle mark (brand) be recorded, "a crop and a slit in the left ear and an upper and lower cut in the right ear." (2) One year later, on 23 March 1779, he was appointed by the Yohogania Court along with James Bradford and Thomas Edginton "to view a road the nearest and best way from Catfishes Camp (
Washington, Pa.) to Pentecost's Mills and make a return to the next Court." By 1781 the states' boundaries had been settled, and Joseph and David were on the Supply Tax Lists for Strabane Twp.,
Washington Co., Pa.:
Joseph
Snowden taxed on 70 acres, 1 horse, 4 cattle, 4 sheep.
David
Snowden taxed on 70 acres 2 horses, 2 cattle, 2 sheep (Pa. Archives, Series III, vol. 22, p. 781)
Although I have not been able to document when or where either obtained the 70 acres on which each was taxed in 1781, there is conclusive evidence of land ownership in 1783. In Washington.Co. Deed Book I B2, p. 268, Joseph
Snowden sold on 18 July to Charles Dodd "for the consideration of Twenty- four pounds
Pennsylvania Currency . . . . twelve Acres of Land Lying in the Head of a Hollow between Joseph Snowden's Dwelling place and David Hoges Line." In the same D. Bk., p. 172, his son, David
Snowden, was recognized as a land owner: "All that piece or Parsel of Land Situate and Lying on Chartiers and Georges Creeks bounded by lands of Andrew Swearinghamg (sic) Ephram Bilderback David
Snowden Reason Pumphrey Samuel Acklen, and William Jobsons." (12 Jul. 1785)
On 3 Sept. 1788 "John Dodd, Tavern Keeper and his wife Mary of the county and town of
Washington and state of
Pennsylvania sold to Joseph Snoden Senr. yeoman of the county and state aforesaid for forty pounds
Pennsylvania money a tract of land situate near the town of
Washington whereon the said
Snowden now lives . . . .containing 305 acres twenty perches and called Prulir.11 (D. Bk. ID, p. 242, Wash. Co.)
This land was later sold by Joseph and his wife, Sarah, in three parcels. The last piece was sold on 23 April 1795 to David Moreton for 145 pounds: "Joseph
Snowden and Sarah his wife of
Canton Twp . . . .(sold) a parcel of land lying and being near the town of
Washington on the waters of Chartiers
Creek whereon David
Snowden, the younger lived, the same being part of a tract of land granted by the Commonwealth of Pa., to John Dodd . . . .conveyed to Joseph
Snowden, 13 Dec. 1788."
This last deed, signed by Joseph and Sarah
Snowden in 1795, has interlined witnesses in a different ink, which appear to have been inserted at another time: Isaac Leet, William
Snowden, Ann
Snowden (William's wife), and Rachel
Snowden (William's sister). This deed was not recorded until 17 Jan. 1818. The interlined witnesses may have been considered necessary because the deed was not recorded until some 23 years after the sale. (D. Bk. 2 B, p. 495, Wash. Co., Pa.)
Sometime after this last sale (1795/6) Joseph and Sarah moved to the northern section of what was then
Brooke Co., Va., now
Hancock Co., W. Va. On 3 Aug. 1799 Joseph wrote his will, which is on file in Wellsburg,
Brooke Co., W. Va.:
"I do freely give to my beloved wife one hundred dollars and a cowe
I do give my son William one hundred dollars and my mare and my tules (tools)
I do give my Son John one hundred dollars and the Colte
I do give my daughter Sarah fifty dollars
I do give my daughter Rachel fifty dollars
My sons david and Joseph have had their part in my life time and if they do get the three hundred acres of land and one hundred pounds out of Shepperd hands that is to be divided amonst them all equal.* I do a point Henry Pittinger Senr and James Bruce To se it setlad it amonst my Children
Joseph Snodon Senr
his mark
August the 3 day of 1799"
The probate date is not given; however, the document is found in a Will Book with court documents in chronological sequence, so that one might assume that it was submitted for probate in 1799. Joseph
Snowden, Sr. died shortly after the writing of the will.

David
Snowden was a Rev. War soldier and Indian scout on the western Pa. frontier. His pension papers state: "he was born in New Jersey near Amboy in 1759 - when about 3 years his Father moved to the Western part of
Pennsylvania and when the Revolutionary War commenced he resided with his Father in what is now the county of
Washington, Pennsyl- vania." This places the family in western Pa. c 1762/3. I have not been able to document their presence here that early. We do know from court records that the family was in Yohogania Co., Va., and its successor,
Washington Co., Pa., by the time of the Revolution.
* The
Hazelrigg family migrated from England to the Va. Colony prior to 1700. Richard K. Hazelrigg d. in Frederick Co. c 1762; his son, James, moved his fam. from Prince William Co., Va. to Red Stone Old Fort in 1761. (Present site of Brownsville, Pa.) From here they moved on to Wash. Co., Pa., where they were involved in the Wash. Co. Border Warfare of 1782. James and son Joshua were in Capt. William Leets'Co., 3rd Bat. Wash. Co. Militia (Pa. Archs. Ser. 6, Vol. 2, pp. 98 and 122), William in Capt. Abner Howell's Frontier Militia.(Pa. Archs. Ser. 2, Vol. 14, p. 741) In Dec. of 1782 James was listed as the owner of 3 slaves in Strabane Twp. A deposition signed in 1831 by Eli(jah)
Hazelrigg in Bath Co., Ky., and found in the David
Snowden pension papers states that he (Eli) was the son of James
and brother of Nancy, who m. David
Snowden, and that the Hazelrg. fam. moved from Pa. to Ky. in 1784, settling along the
Kentucky River in Fayette Co. The Master Index of Va. Surveys and Grants 1774-91 compiled by Joan Brookes-Smith shows that James had surveyed and was granted 2 parcels of land, one for 300 acres, the other for 350, along the Ky. River in Fayette. (Surveyed 1783, Granted 1785) William Hazelrg. held 750 acres surveyed and granted same time ad- joining James' property. Much of these holdings proved to be in
Clark Co. when it was cut from Fayette. On 13 Nov.1785 James and Eliz. Hazelrigg were listed in the Boone
Creek Baptist Church. Sometime after this Eliz. must have d., for James m. the widow, Lucy Fleming in 1793. In the tax lists for 1792 of
Clark Co. 6 Hazelrg. men are noted: Charles, Graham, James, John, Joshua and William Jr. Mr. John R. C. Sanderson, onetime officer of the Richard K. Hazelrigg Family Assn., wrote me in 1968 that the children of James and Elizabeth were: Joshua, Eli, Nancy,
Polly, Elizabeth and Rebecca. My inclination is to add to this group James Jr. and William Sr., although further research might prove otherwise. James Sr. made a last move to Bath Co. Ky., where he d. in 1818, with son Joshua settling his estate.
David's military service outlined in his govt. pension and corroborated in the Pa. Archs. indicates that he served 3 yrs.1 "Sometimes he would be out for a week, sometimes more. . . . spying and guarding the Frontier against the Indians." He marched under Brig. Gen. McIntosh when Forts McIntosh and Laurens were built, and was with Major Leet's Company under Cols. Crawford and Williamson in the Sandusky Campaign - considered one of the most sanguine of our border m battles.2 His last participation was Sept. 1782, when he marched with Col. Swearingen and a small band of Wash. Co. Militiamen to the defense of the Block House on Wheeling
Creek. (Fort Henry) This is considered by some historians to represent the last battle of the war.3
No deeds Bearing David's name have been found in Wash. Co., Pa., but he is shown as a boundary land owner on "Sugartree Flat" tract in an early Wash. Co. Plat Book. (Survey for Payton Cook, 22 Apr. 1786) The land attributed to David on the Plat book was part of the Joseph
Snowden, Sr. holdings, bought by him as late as 13 Dec. 1788, but on which Joseph Sr. and family had been living prior to the recorded purchase. Joeseph
Snowden Sr. sold this tract on 23 Apr. 1795 and the land description reads in part: "A parcel of land lying and being near he town of
Washington on the waters of Chartiers
Creek whereon David
Snowden, the younger, late lived, the same being part of a tract granted by the Commonwealth of Pa. to John Dodd. ...thence by deed pole conveyed to Joseph
Snowden on 13 Dec. 1788." (D. Bk. 2 B, p. 495, Wash. Co., Pa.) He is also listed as a boundary owner on a second plot of ground bought 25 Dec. 1791 by his brother, Joseph
Snowden Jr. (D. Bk. 1 L, P. 61, Wash. Co.)
David
Snowden is listed on petitions for a new state sent to the Continental Congress from the Wash. Co. area from 1776- 80. Beginning in 1781 he is listed on tax and voters' lists first, in Strabane Twp., Wash. Co., and by 1793, in
Canton Twp. He had not moved, but the corner of Strabane Twp. in which the Snowdens lived had been cut off to form
Canton Twp. He is found in the 1790 U.S.C. for Wash. Co. with 3 males under 16 and 2 females.
David with his family left for Ky. in.the spring of 1793, for on 10 Sept. 1793 he is listed as a resident of
Clark Co., Ky., when he purchased 100 acres on the Ky. River adjoining lands of his father-in-law, James
Hazelrigg. (D. Bk. 1, pp. 211-12,
Clark Co.) On 30 Oct. 1793 he was the surety when his father-in-law married the widow Lucy Fleming. (M. Reg. 1793-1831, p. 2,
Clark Co.) On 8 Feb. 1797 David and Nancy sold their 100 acres and purchased land in the extreme southeast corner of
Clark Co. The Court Order Books of
Clark Co. from c 1797 to 1808, when Estill was cut from Clark, have many references to the activities of David
Snowden and his family. In 1804 and 1805 David received bounty money for wolf hides from the county and from 1805 through 1808 he was included in those men appointed to re- view possible roads leading from the Red River to Bradshaw's mill and the local ironworks. On 30 Sept. 1807 a road was surveyed which went through David's lands and for which he gave liberty to the
Clark Co. Commissioners. (Order Bks. 1804-10; Jan. Court of 1808, p. 236, Clark) When the final boundaries were set for Estill Co., the David
Snowden hold- ings were in Estill Co., and David and Nancy are found in the 1810 through 1830 U.S.C. enum. for Estill. By the time of the tax inventory dated 16 Nov. 1829, David had increased his land holdings in Estill until he was assessed on 320.0 acres of land, 1 slave and 2 horses.
The inventory on his estate was filed at the Dec. Court of 1840, his son, James
Hazelrigg Snowden, administrated; a bill of sale which includes purchasers and the items they bought from the estate is also given. (W. Bk. B, pp. 194-5, Estill) Nancy received a widow's pension after David's death and their son, David Jr., with whom she finally lived, served as administrator of her estate. It was settled in Owsley Co., Ky., because the part of Estill in which David Jr. had taken up residence was cut from Estill to form Owsley Co. in 1843. On 4 Oct. 1850 a letter addressed to the Commissioner of Pensions, Wash. D. C., requested that the back pension due be paid to Nancy's administrator, "She having left 4 children surviving her who are residing in different places and with difficulty can all he found." Court records show that her sons, Rev. Charles, David Jr., Joseph, John and James
Hazelrigg were all alive at this time. However, Charles and Joseph had moved to Indiana many years before and may have lost touch. The same may be true of the daus., whom I have not been able to trace. The burial site of David and Nancy is not known: however, decendents of David
Snowden Jr. told me that the tradition is that they were buried on their own land, which has long since passed out of the hands of the family. (birthdates from parents pension depositions)

Notes for Joseph Jr. Snowden:
From The Descendants of Joseph
Snowden (1725/30-1799)

4 JOSEPH
Snowden JR. [Joseph Sr. 1]
b. c 1765, Wash. Co., Pa.; d. c 1804,
Athens Co., Oh.; s/o Joseph Sr. and Sarah ( ) Snowden; m. c 1793/4, Wash. Co., Pa. Margaret Haning, b. c 1774, N. J.; d. c 1849,
Athens Co., Oh.; d/o Matthew Haning Sr. (Vital statistics cited by their descendant and serious researcher, Walter Farwell of Tipton, Ia.)
He wrote in 1972. "In 1807 Margaret
Snowden leased from the
Ohio University at Athens 80 acres of land for 100 years . . . . The Archives of the University have no records of people who lived on their land in Athens and Alexander Twp.,
Athens Co. The renters paid their tax directly to the college; therefore, no public records of taxes exist . . . . The oldest son (of Joseph Jr. and Margaret) probably paid taxes during the few years he lived while of age, but there are no records of his name nor when or whom he married . . . . This nameless son probably lived at home and farmed the place." The U.S. Censuses indicate that he and later his wife and family made their home with his mother, Margaret. At her death and as a fitting tribute to her, she was buried on an eminence on farm lot #7, Section 24 overlooking the stream bearing her name. Her two-story log cabin home was still standing to c 1960. (1)
Early records in Wash. Co., Pa. give some details of Joseph Jr.; however, it is not always easy to distinguish son from father. On the Petition for a New State sent to the Cont. Congress from southwestern Pa. (1776 to 1780), there is one listing each for David and William
Snowden, but three for Joseph. Certainly these three represent at least two separate Josephs, likely Jr. and Sr. William and David are listed in the 1790 U.S.C. as heads of households, but Joseph is listed as the head of a household with 2 other males over 16 and 2 females' This agrees with research that sons John and Joseph Jr. and daughter Rachael were still at home.
The Joseph
Snowden who served as 4th Sergeant in the Wash. Co. Militia, 5th Batt. of Riflemen (1792) was likely Joseph Jr. Since this was the same Batt. in which his younger brother, John, served as an Indian Scout, it would have been consistent with militia practices to have brothers serve together. Joseph Sr. would certainly have been in his 60's, possibly 70's, at this time. (Pa. Archives, Ser. 6, Vol. V, p. 695)
25 Dec. 1791 Joseph
Snowden purchased 36 1/2 acres on Chartiers
Creek in Wash. Co., Pa. (D. Bk. I L, p. 61) In 1793 both Joseph Sr. and Jr. were taxed on their holdings in
Canton Twp., Wash. Co., Pa. I have found no records showing the disposition of these 36 1/2 acres. A series of dockets in the County indicates court actions against a Samuel Marshall by William Bradford over land dealings in the
Ohio Territory. Marshall found various men, among them David and Joseph
Snowden Jr., to sign as sureties for money owed to Bradford. There is some evidence that Bradford exacted payment from the sureties. Was Joseph Jr.'s payment the 36 1/2 acres of land?
Joseph Sr.'s will (1799) left nothing to Joseph Jr., stating that he had had "his part in my lifetime." However, when Joseph Jr. removed to Oh., he obtained along with members of the Haning party a grant of 100 acres out of the Donation Land Tract from the
Ohio Company. This land lay near Elk Run in the Olive Green Survey (Lot #32), which he sold while still living in Bellpre to Nathan Abbott on 18 Apr. 1797. (D. Bk. 15, Plot Bk., Elk Run Survey, Wash. Co., Oh.) The transfer deed was not filed until 19 Feb. 1817 - a practice not uncommon for that time.
Mr. Farwell places the arrival of the Snowdens and Hanings in Oh. c 1796, and their trip up the river to
Athens Co. c 1798. This agrees with records of Selvus McNeir of Gallipolis, Oh. and is taken from an American Bible owned originally by Mrs. McNeir's great grandmother, Mrs. James Haning Sr. (Gallipolis Public Library)
In Howe's
Ohio Valley History, dealing with
Athens Co., p. 203, "Early in 1798 a number of emigrants arrived: among them were . . . .John and Moses Hewitt, Cornelius Moore, Joseph
Snowden . . . .the Brookses and the Hanings."
In the Athens County History (1947), p. 255, "Margaret's
Creek was named for Margaret (Haning)
Snowden who was one of the two first white women to settle in Athens County. Mrs. Snowden and her husband, Joseph, who was drowned in the Hocking River and his body never found, arrived in 1798."
Mr. Farwell states that some descendants of the family question this drowning. However, they offer no authentic research to disprove it, and neither he nor I have found any. Joseph's last child was b. c 1803/4. No private or public documents have been found to indicate that Joseph Jr. lived beyond this time. Since histories for the area at this time document high water, floods, capsized boats and numerous drownings, the odds favor the possibility that he did drown.*

Snowden, an Indian Scout who furnished valuable information and aid to the early settlers more than one hundred years ago, rendering similar services as that of Lewis Wetzel, lies buried in Flats Cemetery with grave unmarked only by a slight indentation of ground." He was a shoemaker by trade and a farmer in 1800 and 1801 he resided in Chartiers Twp., Wash. Co., Pa., but moved his family to
Brooke Co., Va. (now area of
Hancock Co., W. Va.) between 1801 and 1810, settling near his brother William. John and his wife were Presbyterian and, having strong religious convictions, gave eight of their children Biblical names. On 4 Aug. 1814 their 7 youngest children were baptized by the Rev. George M. Scott of the Flats Church, otherwise known as the Fairview Presbyterian Church. (Rec. found in Bap. Ledger written by Rev. Scott and now owned by his descendants in W. Va.)
