While researching internet books I found very strong
evidence of where Nicholas really came from, the
following is an excerpt from a pretty reliable book.
REF: History of West Virginia
in two parts
By: Virgil A. Lewis
Corresponding member of the Virginia Historical Society.
Pub: 1889
page 599-600
About the year 1780, came John Nickell, Andrew Nickell and
Robert Campbell, each of who obtained a large tract of land on what
is now known as the Pickaway Plains. They were soon joined by Archibald
McDowell, William Pritt, Robert Knox and James Humphreys, all of whom
were recently from Ireland. Then came James Scott, James Miller, John
Lemons, Charles Carr, James Steele, James Dunsmore, James Murdock,
Joseph Dunsmore, Christopher Hoke and Nicholas Lake, all of Scotland.
