Artrip Family from Colbert to Stafford George Smith
Posted by: Mary McGarr (ID *****9980) Date: September 07, 2011 at 08:18:43
  of 228

This is the information on the Artrips that I have collected in the last tweve years. Unfortunately I wasn't in to verification of my sources when I started, so I'm not suggesting that my findings are totally accurate. Please feel free to point out errors. I included some poignant letters because I thought they were worth sharing.

William and John Artrip on the Revolutionary War Muster Roll of
Michael Reader's Company

Wayne Co. WV
Submitted by John Snyder

From Brumbaugh's book we read the following about Michael
Reader's Company of Dunmore County and his Revolutionary War
muster roll.


"Dunmore County was formed from Frederick County in 1772 and
named in honor of Lord Dunmore, then Governor of Virginia
(1771-1776). His loyalty to England made the name unacceptable,
and it was changed, by Act of the State Legislature in Oct.,
1777, to "Shanando." The County originally embraced not only
present Shenandoah, but also two-thirds of Page and half of
Warren, and included this territory at the time of the
Revolution. Thus the men enrolled under Capt. Michael Reader
were from what is now Page County, and those enrolled under
Capt. Joseph Bowman were from what is now Warren County. This
is evident from a comparison of the names on the muster rolls
with the names on the census lists here published and on the
lists of the 1785 census published in "A History of Shenandoah
County, Va., " by John W. Wayland."

(In Revoultionary War Records Volume 1, Virginia, by Gaius
Marcus Brumbaugh, Genealogical Publishing Company, Baltimore,
Reprinted 1967, page 590)


The Michael Reader muster roll is decorated at the top with a
drawing of a canon, drum and flag. It is written on one large
sheet of paper, about 12" by 15", folded once, so that the
columns of names are on the left edges of each of the four
sides. The name "M. Reader" appears on the outside of the
folded sheet. The little x's and other markings appear to be
attendance records.

The original muster roll is identified as manuscript
#3D9217a11-15 in the collection of the Virginia Historical
Society in Richmond.


The following is an alphabetical list of names that appear on
the muster roll. Of interest to this transcriber is the
appearance of his Artrip ancestors on this Revolutionary War
muster roll.

May be Harve.

Names pronounced Artup.

The Artrips who settled in Artrip and Finney were from Norway and were an Old Amish Order. They did not want the outside world intruding on them. I remember it being very strange. they were farmers. I remember lots of sheep always being in the road and having to get out of the car and shoo them away and going with some of the children in the evening to do the milking of the catte. Things changed, of course, and people left.

Hi Mary,

I saw your posting on the Artrip Message Board and thought I would share the information I have on your line from my dad's family history book on the Artrips.

The children of Sarah Sally Artrip and James M. Smith are: Albert, Henry, Joseph, Fullen, Mary, Floyd, Cowan and Richard.

Sally's parents were James H. Artrip and Mary "Polly" Kiser. James father was John, whose father was Colbert, the progenitor of all Artrips in America.

You might find the census index study helpful that I posted on the Wayne County, WV GenWeb Archives. It has all the Artrips that I could find in census indices from 1783 to 1910.

I'd love to here more about your connection.

My mother, Juanita Artrip, was a descendant from James H. Artrip's brother William.

Hope to hear from you again.

Dear Mary,

I read your message on the Russell County Board. Am I correct in thinking that Sarah Counts Smith is the daughter of John D. Counts and Margaret Kelly?
If you have any info on James' parents, I would appreciate your sending it. I am descended from Joshua and Sarah Sutherland Smith through their daughter Phoebe. James and Sarah Smith are as far back as I can trace the Smith family.
Thank you for your help.

Looking for information on Albert Smith (s/o James M. Smith & Sarah Sally Artrip) and hs wife Sarah Racliff. I know they had one child named Delbert/Henry Delbert who is my gg grandfather. He died at the age of 35 of leukemia and there is no family info on him. He was in Tazewell Virginia and also Newton County Missouri (he returned to Newton Co. to die). Any info would be GREATLY appreciated
May have married also Victoria Combs b. 1848 married 1868 with child John Smith born 1874

He was killed by an auto near Cleveland Virginia. He was a farmer in Russell County for many years, then moved to Missouri, only to return to Russell County, VA. Source, the Musick Book by Egbert S. Musick, 1978. Not sure if Albert, son of James and Sarah, is same as Albert who married Victoria Combs and had John Smith. Albert, son of J&S is originally listed with 3 childre, Della, Mae, and Unknown Male and wife not known.

Hi Mary, I really don't have much on Henry Clinton Smith. Just that he was a merchant in Cleveland and moved to MO. You know his younger brother moved to MO for a time. He returned home when he was older, but I bet some of his settled there. In case you don't have their names, they are: James M. Smith had a brother named Henry. They were born the same yr. 1829. Is that correct? They married sisters: James M. m. Sarah "Sallie" Artrip & Henry m. Mary "Polly" Artrip. Those Smiths sure loved the Artrips. ha. You tell me that your Henry m. a Cook. His sister Mary m. a Cook.
Alden - Killed by Frank Smith at the Artrips.
Fred - School Teacher
Dewey -
Minnie
Mary b. 1856
Floyd b. 1857 Lived in Shell Branch, not far from home place. He moved to MO.
Cowan
Richard - lived in WVA m. Kiser, dtr of Rachel Kiser, he was a teacher too.
There were other children. I have children of Richard Smith if you want them. He was married twice.
My source is from Max Ervin, friend & neighbor. & also LDS Library.

Thank you for the info on William Patton & Abel. I'm also a descendant of theirs as my grandmother Smith & grandfather were 3rd cousins. Laban Clark & Nannie Maida Smith.

Ran across some deeds from the late 1800's today in a box of old papers. Thought I'd share as there are names besides my ancestors' on them.

My great grandfather is Henry Clinton Smith. He was the Sheriff of Russell County around the turn of the Century. He and his wife, Rachel Almira Cook and her father D. K. (Doctor Kanan) Cook, seemed to buy and sell a lot of property. The following deed is handwritten in ink on a legal pad piece of paper (two pages). I love the plat description. I would also love to know where it is now. I know that my great grandparents had a white house on the Clinch River. When I went there a few years ago hoping to find it, what I found were dozens of "white houses" on the Clinch River. I just had to laugh when I saw them all. My aunt and uncle had been there in the 1970's, and they thought they found the house. They said it had been moved up higher on the hill to keep it from flooding. When they asked about the Cooks, a storekeeper said, "Oh the hills are full of them!"

"This deed made this the 20th day of July 1897 between Jacob Minnick and Margerette L. Minnick his wife of the County Russell and State of virginia of the first part, and H. C. Smith and D. K. Cook of the County and State aforesaid of the second part: Witnesseth that for and in consideration of the sum of ($125) one hundred and twenty- five dollars to them in hand paid the reciept [sic] whereof is hereby acknowledged the parties of the first part doth bargain grant and sell unto the parties of the second part, and by this deed conveys unto them a parcel or tract of land lying and being in the county and state aforesaid and situated on the north side of Clinch River and is bounded as follows: Beginning at a sycamore on the north bank of Clinch River running north up the hill to a cedar and maple on top of the ridge thence west to a hickory on top of a spur [not sure about that word], thence west along the top of ridge to a white oak a corner between Micchael Kelley and Noah Kiser (deceased) thence south down the hill to a cedar on the banks of the river thence up the said river with its meanderings to the beginning, said to contain 7 acres be the same more or less. The parties of the first part doth convey all of their interest right--and title to the parties of the second part in said land, with all of the appertenances to hold to them forever. And they hereby warrant the title to the same to the said parties of the second part against the claims of all persons whomsoever.

Dec 20, 1907

Dearest Stafford,

You letter received Tuesday. Sorry you are not coming home Xmas. I did not have any turkey Thanksgiving. I thought I could not enjoy it and your and Clovis both gone. Thought sure you would be here Xmas. We'll have the turkey any way now for Xmas but it would eat lots better if you was here.

Well Stafford I am sorry your clothes is so thin. You could so in your shirt-sleeves now. If it don't turn colder and if it did I could run over to Aunt Ellens and get that coat you wore while you was helping them gather corn. Ha. Are you going to see Aunt Nannie Xmas

Stafford you said you wished I would go to see Ethel. It would done no good to go for they would not let any one in the room but the nurse and doctor. She is almost well now and was coming home Sat- never heard whether they come or not

Are you going to see your Aunt Nan? If you do, kiss her for me.

We had a letter from Clovis yesterday hear it is we will start his money today he has almost broken us up Same thing like two hundred and fifty--he has got away with and lost out at last.

Well, Stafford I'll start your box Mon or Tues if nothing happens will send it collect now as you said to

Of course it won't be much that I can send, but hope you will enjoy it--I know you have lots to eat and all like that--but it will be like school days when I used to send you boxes

It is most mail time. I close with much love from all. We are all well. Wishing you a merry Xmas and happy new year.

Christmas gift--Stat- bye bye mama

Notes for CLOVIS KANAN SMITH:
In a letter to his mother, Clovis writes on December18, 1907 from Valpo(postmark on envelope is Harris, MO) (The letter is written on Telegram paper from the Pennsylvania Lines of West Pittsburgh.) Dear Mother, I find it only too true that an ogir (?) is going to have a hard time to get a job from now until the 1st of March. The Grand Trunk, the Penna, the Chgo and Alton, E.J. & E, the Rock Island and in fact every road that I have tried has more men than they can handle now so I find that it will be cheaper for me to come home and wait then I will go to Ft Wayne about Sunday for Examinations. I guess I will have to stay there about two or thre days and that will pull my money down very short indeed and I wont have enough to come home on so I thought if you could send me $15 dollars I would await my call there. I have enough to last me in Ft Wayne and will probably leave a little left. When I got your last 20 I paid up my board and room rent bought me some underwear a sweater and a pair of rubbers and other little things I had to have. I am not discouraged in the least, but it seems that I have hard luck every since I started but I was placed here by the R. R. Co., and they have got to give me a chance but any chance may be a long way off for they have 3 extra men in this town which will be ahead of me so I thought the best thing I could do was to come home and when they needed me they could call me. I would like to start about next Wednesday if you can get my fare to me by that time. Hoping you are all well I will close. Lovingly, Clovis

He evidently finally got a job and less than three years after this letter he was killed by a train.

Killed by a Santa Fe engine. (Aunt Sykie, 1/18/01)

I don't see why he would object to our exchanging photos, do you? Well I had better close. Your friend Mattie Jessie

Died on June 5, 1944 (D Day) according to Aunt Sykie (1/18/01).

Buried in S16-43, B2, P177.

Mary, I have three Mattie Jessee's in my tree. My second G grandmother was
Mattie Jessee, having been a Childress before marrying Wilson Jessee. Martha
Virginia "Mattie" Childress was born 1862. My other Matties were born later
and one may be the author of your letter. By a quick scan of the Matties I
noticed that one was a Kiser before marriage. Hope this helps and would love
to know if your Mattie is one of mine.
