[HI18258] (Research):Barnabas BLUE (1757-1827), m. Talithacuny "Charity" MARSHALL. He was rais ed in Berkeley Co. VA and served in the Revolutionary War in Capt. Willi am Morgan's company of Berkeley Co. volunteer militia. His name appea rs on the 1782/3 Berkeley Co. tax list. After the war, in 1786, he receiv ed a warrant for 400 acres of land in Providence Twp., Bedford Co. PA. Th is land was surveyed in 1791 and patented to Michael BLUE, Barnabas' broth er, in 1799. Barnabas was on a 1789 list of inhabitants of Providence Tw p. and is listed in the 1790 census of Bedford Co. PA. Barnabas and Micha el took part in the Whiskey Rebellion in 1794 and were bound "to answer bi lls of indictment for riot and treasonable acts, setting seditious pol es in opposition to the whiskey tariff, to appear at Jan term of Court, 17 95". They, and many others, appeared in court as directed, plead guilty a nd were fined (fines for all ranged between 5 shillings and £15). In 17 95 he was in Bourbon Co. KY, where he signed the marriage bond for his nie ce, Elizabeth BLUE. He remained in Bourbon Co. through 1800 and in 18 05 he received two land patents in Miami Co. OH, 200 acres in Sect. 12, Tw p. 1, Range 10, and 160 acres in Sect. 28, Twp. 2, Range 11; the first w as in Staunton Twp., near his brother Uriah, and the second was in Lost Cr eek Twp. It is believed that they lived on the Lost Creek Twp. land. Barna bas died in 1827 without a will. His sons, Solomon and Uriah, were adminis trators of his estate. The estate papers make it clear that Barnabas' fath er was Michael BLUE of Virginia. This confirms that Michael BLUE [1.1.2] r emained in VA, probably Berkeley Co., after his sons moved to PA, KY and O H. Source:http://members.tripod.com/blue_family/bl02.htm

[HI18259] (Research):Michael BLUE (1759-1822), m. Amelia "Milla" MORGAN. He was raised in Berke ley Co. VA and served in Capt. William Morgan's militia company, as did h is brothers, Uriah and Barnabas. After the Revolution he went to Bedford C o. PA. He may have gone there with his brothers, Uriah and Barnabas, or jo ined them later. The 1790 census shows Michael in Bedford Co. Bedford C o. militia records indicate that Michael was a lieutenant of the 2nd Batta lion in 1793 and a captain of the 7th Co., 2nd Regt. in 1794. He took pa rt in the Whiskey Rebellion of 1794 (see Barnabas' biography, above), a nd received the patent for Barnabas' 400 acres in 1799. We have no reco rd of Michael having lived in KY, as did his brothers, but he joined th em in Miami Co. OH. He owned land in Staunton Twp., near Uriah, in Sect. 1 7, Twp. 1, Range 10, and in Sect. 23 of the same Twp. He received paten ts on these tracts of land in 1813. He sold some of the Sect. 17 land in 1 816 to Fielding Lowry. Michael died in Miami Co. OH, where his will was pr oved 9 Aug 1822.

There was a " Capt " William H. who drowned alo ng with several other men in a canoe accident at the falls of the Kiskimin etas River in Pennsylvania around 1812. The theory is that this was Hannah 's husband and that she pulled up and went to Ohio after that. As f ar as I can determine, her name was McBride but I really can't document th at just yet. I believe the progenitor of this family to be one Jacob HASEL GASER who appears in Ben Franklin's Gazette pp 154 in 1751 as a runaway "D utch " servant age 21 from a Mr Inslee in Bucks Co, Pa.

[HI18343] (Research):Urbana Daily Citizen, Tuesday, November 30, 1937 Early Fire Destroys Big Barn Damage which will be in excess of $5000 was done this morning when fire sw ept a large barn on the J W Ireland farm, less than a mile south of Ter re haute, burned itto the ground, destroyed much livestock and wiped out t he season's crop of hay, wheat and corn. The fire was discovered about 8 a .m. by Robert Green, the son of William Green, the tenant on the far m. He had arisen to do the milking and other chorse and looking out the fr ont bay window saw the huge structure in flames. By the time of the discov ery, the fire had progressed to such a point that saving any part of it w as out of the question. Mr Green, Sr was called and several early-rising n eighbors were attracted, but they could do nothing but watch it burn. By t he time the Green boy reached the scene of the holocaust, the large str aw stack in a corral in back of the barn was being swept by falmes. In th is corral was a large herd of milk cows. He was fortunate in being ab le to get the cows out before they were set fire from the burning straw st ack. Ireland and Green today estimated that 500 bushels of corn and 150 bu shels of wheat were destroyed. A half a hayloft of alfalfa ws wiped out, t he dry hay burning like gunpowder. Three horses were destroyed. Also destr oyed was a sow and a litter of eight small pigs. Ireland and green, who w as said to own the stock and crops on a partnership basis, feared today th at other stock not accounted for, had been destroyed. This was particular ly true of a large number of hogs that could not be located up to noon to day. Cause of the fire still remains a mystery today, according to repor ts around Terre haute. Because of the advanced stage of the fire when it w as discovered, it was not posible to determine just what the origin was. N either Ireland nor Green could be located today, because both were at t he fire scene beyond telephones. The barn was understood to have been insu red.

11/22/2003 Sandi- We corresponded once before about James H. Ireland of Champaign Cou nty, OH born 1839. I am trying to determine if he was a child of Willi am H. Ireland and Eliza Hendrix who were married in Champaign County on De c. 28, 1837. At the time of the 1840 census they were living in Warren Co unty next to William's uncle Thomas Ireland. At that time they had a s on born between 1835 and 1840 according to the census. James H. Ireland was apparently born 1839 so this would fit. They also had other children l iving with them, including some born before 1835 so it appears that Eli za may have had children from a prior marriage before she married Willi am H. Ireland. I have seen a reference that Eliza Hendrix was born Eli za Ann Carroll which implies she married a Hendrix before William Irelan d, but I have not been able to independently confirm this. William H. Ireland's father was named James, and his grandfather was also James, so it ma kes sense he would have named a son James. His middle name was Hit e. If James H. Ireland's middle name was also Hite that would be a pretty strong confirmation, as it would if the H stood for Hendrix.

William apparently abandoned Eliza between 1840 and 1858 when he was la st seen by his brother Thomas Newell Ireland in Illinois. (Thomas Newell I reland also was married in Champaign Co. in 1836 to Rebecca Crabill and went to Illinois in 1837 and apparently never knew his brother was even married).

I can find no record of Eliza or William in the 1850 census in Ohio, Illin ois, or Indiana but I suppose they could have gone somewhere else. I am g oing to search for Hendrix's in Champaign Co. in 1850 and 1860 to see if E liza might have gone back there assuming William abandoned her before 185 0. If she really ws born a Carroll she might have also been living with t he Carroll family somewhere but I have not been able to find her with t he Carrolls in Warren County, but still looking.

If you have any ideas about how I might unravel this mystery or where I might look next let me know. I thought you might be interested in all this, since we might be able to find the parents of James H. Ireland of Champ aign County if this pans out. It would seem to fit, since James sudden ly appears in Champaign County in the 1860 census, and I have seen no reco rd of him before that, but if he is the son of William H. and his father abandoned him between 1850 and 1860 it is entirely possible he would have gone back to Champaign County. Anyway, thank you for any help you are able to offer in this matter.

I am still working on the mysterious James H Ireland of Champaign County, OH. There are a couple of family trees posted on ancestry.com that suggest that James was the son of William H Ireland and a Mary Bell Hendricks. They give as a reference page 484 of Evan P. Middleton's 1917 History of Champaign County, Ohio. I was wondering if you had this book and if so if you could check page 484 to see if it sheds any more lig ht on the subject. According to the Champaign County marriage records on your site, my William H. Ireland married Eliza Hendrix, not Mary Bell. I have also seen another book that gives her name as Eliza. From what I have been able to gather, assuming they are the same people, the
family apparently moved from Champaign County to Ripley County, IN where accor ding to the 1850 census everyone died of cholera in 1849 apparently exce pt for James. The census does give the mother's name as Eliza not Mary Bell. Some of the information matches my William H. but other does not. His state of birth in the census is PA but mine was born in VA. My William 's age in 1849 would have been 34, the census gives 31. More
importantly, the family legend says William H. lived at least until 1858 when he was last seen by his brother in Hancock County, IL, when William left on a wagon train bound for Oregon, but the census and apparently Middleton's book say William died in 1849. The whole thing is very interesting. Some facts match, others don't. Maybe Middleton can shed some light if you have the book.
Sincerely,
Bob Ireland
