History of George Ludwig Rupert by William Baker George arrived in America on the ship "Zwei Bruder" on Sept 21, 1778 at Staten Island, NY as part of a German Mercenary Unit. George fought in the American Revolutionary War as a soldier for both sides. He was discharged near "The Ohio River Falls" near Green River, which is near the present day Lexington, Kentucky. He married and lived there for awhile at Bryan's Station before finally settling at Fayette County, Ohio along with some nephews of his wife. Bryan's Station was founded by Daniel Boone and his in-laws, the Bryans. George was called the "Little German," by Boone and others, who were amazed by George's prodigious skill and accuracy with a firearm. George was short (about 5 feet 1 inch) and stocky. As a mercenary, he was a Korporal in the Waldeck Regiment of Hessian soldiers, was captured in Louisiana, and switched sides joining George Rogers Clark at Kaskaskia, Illinois. George Rupert of Fayette County, Ohio, declared before a court: His age was 73 years. He served 3 years under General (George Rogers) Clark, Col. Crittenden, Captian Baily, Lt. Dalton. He lists Indian skirmishes under battles. He enlisted at Kaskaskia, Illinois. The examining clerk certified that this statement agreed with the evidence. Statement of George Ruppert, who appeared in court, on 10/4/1832. He stated he resided in Jefferson Township and was 73 years old. He enlisted in the service of the United States under the above listed officers. From Kaskaskia they went to Fort Vincennes, Indiana and then to the Falls of the Ohio where they were measured and sworn and he received $4 as part of his bounty. [Roger's march to take back Vincennes started 2/5/1779.] He served until the end of the war. At that time, he was in the Regiment commanded by Col. Crittenden. He was discharged at the Falls of the Ohio and he received a written discharge certifying his service for more than three years. He said he left the certificate in the care of [Mr. Broadhead] (difficult to read the exact spelling) and didn't know what became of it. He said he was in several skirmishes in Kentucky, in the battle at Shawneetown and at Sandusky [6/4/1782] against the Indians. He said he was born in Hanover in Germany, Europe. After the war, he went to Harrodsburgh, Kentucky and stayed about six months. Then he went to Lexington where he married and soon after moved to the South Fork of Licking River where he lived for six years. Next he moved to Ross County, Ohio, where he stayed for five or six years and finally he settled in Fayette County. On 2/4/1848, Elizabeth Rupert appeared before a Justice of the Peace in Fayette County to apply for a widow's pension. She stated she was 84 years old. She stated she was the widow of George Rupert who was a private in the Army of the Revolution and who drew a pension of $80 per annum starting on 3/4/1831, (it was retroactive to that date). She declared that she married him on the (blank) day of January, 1786. Additional depositions were made by Jacob Pursley, Samuel Kern, Jacob Jamison, and John Coil. These depositions supported her claim to be George Rupert's widow. They state the couple had a large family, the oldest was Margaret and next was George. A search for a record of the marriage in the books of the family found none. Elizabeth had reported that the marriage was recorded in the family bible which was lost when their house burned many years before. Elizabeth did possess a German book that she called a German Hymn Book, published in 1774, in which some birth records were written in German. Elizabeth also stated the marriage took place in Fayette County, Kentucky, near Lexington. Enscribed on his gravestone: "A revolutionary soldier. He fought many a battle for the rich boon which we now enjoy." "Roster of Revolutionary soldiers buried in Ohio," published in 1929, pg 318 is the following: "George Rupert, Fayette County. Born 1750, died Sept 2, 1846, buried Sugar Creek Baptist cemetery, Fayette County in old part behind the church - unplatted" Mrs. Flora Blaine Wood of Nashua, Iowa, a descendant, reports that he was a Revolutionary War veteran and applied for his pension in Fayette County, Ohio on 10/4/1832. The application lists his wife Elizabeth, a son George, and one or two daughters. He drew his pension. Reference: Book E, page 273, Clerk's Office. The 1820 census shows him living in Union Township. According to family tradition he came west with Daniel Boone to establish Boonesboro, Kentucky. Later he moved north across the river into the Ohio frontier. According to Dee Nixon, he was a Hessian soldier. He was captured, but escaped to enlist on 8/14/1781, [this date is not plausible as the war barely lasted another year and he served for more than 3 years.] for the duration of the war, with Captain Baily's Brigade of the Virginia Regulars.note of marriage in family bible
177. Elizabeth Ann PURSLEY was born on 5 Jul 1764 in Virginia (Kentucky statehood was 1792). She died on 6 Jan 1857 in WashingtonCourt House, Ohio Fayette Co. She was buried in Ohio Fayette Co. [Parents]
OBITUARY OF ELIZABETH PURSLEY RUPERT: "Died, recently, at the residence of her son, Henry Rupert, ELIZABETH RUPERT, aged about 100 years. Mrs. Rupert was taken prisoner by the Indians, at Riddle's Station, Kentucky, when quite a small girl - about twelve years old. Although some of her friends who were captured at the same time were cruelly treated and killed, yet she was treated kindly by them, and after six months was taken to Detroit and exchanged. She then returned to her friends. Mrs. R. was, in many respects, a remarkable woman. She raised a family of eleven children. Although she had but one arm, she was able to do most all kinds of labor usually pertaining to house-keeping; was a kind mother and useful woman. She lived before the Revolutionary War, in the days of Daniel Boone, and was personally acquainted with some of the daring adventures of the pioneers of those perilous days. How often were her ears saluted by the shout and terrible war-whoop of the Indian! She lived to see the red-man driven from the graves of his loved fathers and descendants driven before the mighty tread of the pale-face, till they have scarcely a place left to spread their blankets on all this vast continent, which they once owned and inhabited, from the shores of the Atlantic to the Pacific. She lived in the times that tried men's souls. She remembered seeing some of the distinguished men of the Revolution: many thrilling scenes of those times were fresh in her recollection. What wonderful changes she lived to witness! Where, in her recollection, stood the camp of the Indians, and she oft heard the growl of the wolf and the terrific screams of the panther, she lived to see the school-house and comfort-able dwelling, the cultivated fields and hear the music of the church-going bell and the snort of the iron horse, as he sweeps along with the speed of the wind, bearing in his train a hundred cars loaded with the products of agriculture, manufactures, &. But I forbear. Peace to her shade! J.L. -- Jasper Township, Jan 12, 1857" David Bilter's Notes on Obituary: "Quoted from a photocopy of The Washington Register, published at Washington Court House, Ohio, Fayette County, Ohio, 12 February 1857. The raid mentioned occurred on June, 1780. Ruddle's Station was named for Captain Isaac Ruddle, who, with his family, was also captured. He later escaped, to be captured again. Elizabeth had one complete arm and hand; the other arm terminated at the elbow with a couple of rudimentary fingers. She had been born thusly deformed. She was one of the adventurous pioneers and she triumphed over the perils." According to the LDS File of the Evans and Rupert Family: "William Henry Benjamin Rupert, spent many years with his grandparents, William Henry and Rachel (Faint) Rupert, and told a number of anecdotes he remembered his grandfather telling around the fireside. Among other things he said the Indians never molested Elizabeth while she was a captive because of a superstitious awe inspired by her deformed arm. He said George rescued her and married her. According to George H. King, Fredericksburg, Virginia, Rachel (Rupert) Harrison told her daughter-in-law Mrs. Francis M. Harrison that she and her mother Elizabeth both had a child born after they were fifty years of age. All the following is from my file (William Baker): The accounts written up after the incident, including the Draper Manuscript, list their father as "Mr. Pursley" but do not list his first name. Research is continuing to obtain his first name. It is quite possible that due to the stress of captivity, Elizabeth actually forgot her father's name, perhaps just remembering him as 'papa' or 'daddy'. This compiler thinks that is possible and may explain why posterity has not yielded Mr. Pursley's first name to us. Elizabeth's brother Jacob is thought to be the father of yet another Jacob (D. Feb. 17, 1856), William (Dec.16, 1796-Aug.4, 1834) and Henry Pursley, all of Fayette County, Ohio. The settlers gathered a large and intimidating militia together to reclaim many of the whites that had been taken captive in the Ruddle's Station and earlier raids by the Indians, they sent troops among the Indians in Kentucky and demanded their people back. Without the backing of the British, who were cut off from reaching their Indian allies, the Indians had no choice but to bow before superior force. Elizabeth was either kept by the Delaware or was sold to other Indians, but she was in the general Kentucky area when the Militia rescued her and her brothers. Elizabeth reportedly was reticent to go with the settlers. George Ludwig Rupert was one of the militia from the new and bustling frontier settlement of Bryan's Station (Lexington), Kentucky that rescued her and admired her pluck. (Bryan's Station was founded a few years earlier by Daniel Boone and Boone's Bryan family in-laws and was more heavily fortified which made Col. Byrd decide not to attack it). George courted and married her in January 1786, after Elizabeth was released, they were to have nine children. Many of Elizabeth's fellow captives were reunited with the remnants of their scattered families throughout the western settlements. According to tradition in this compiler's family, there was some trading involved for Elizabeth, amounting to a number of furs. This was probably done between the Delaware (Lenai Lennape) allies of the British who initially captured Elizabeth, and the tribe who ended up with her. The Delaware had inhabited the Kentucky-Ohio border regions for some decades after being pushed out from their ancestral home of Delaware. Andrew Jackson Jeffries was the source of this report. He told Clarence V. Griffin and others, who told this compiler. Andrew married a granddaughter of George and Elizabeth's. Andrew was born in Ohio in 1832 and died in Decatur County, Iowa in 1934 to 1936, at over 100 years of age. Hours after the initial massacre, Elizabeth and her brothers Ben, George and Jacob were captured by the Indians and not harmed. Elizabeth was claimed by some Indians, who valued her deformed arm, they viewed her as spiritually sacred because of her deformity. According to my family's tradition, She implored them to let her have Jacob to care for, knowing he would be slaughtered by the Indians as a weakling, unable to keep up with the van of Indians and their captives, like so many other young, sick or lame children were as an expediency. Elizabeth saw many infants grabbed by Indians and dashed to rocks. Elizabeth must have been claimed by a kindly Indian, because she was allowed to care for Jacob. One account has it that Jacob was released to settlers 6 months later and others have it that he was released in Quebec 6 years later. This compiler leans towards the 6 month figure. That Jacob survived so young is a testament to Elizabeth's protection of him in the hostile Indian camp. Jacob owed his life to his sister Elizabeth. Thus, Elizabeth was captured by Native Americans. She was in captivity from 1780 to as soon as 1783 or even as long as 1785 (probably '82 or '83), from the ages of 17 to maybe as old as 22. Elizabeth had a deformity, one arm ended at the elbow with fingerlike appendages attached to the end of her arm. The Indians viewed any deformities like that as being the mark of someone's being touched by the Great Spirit. The Indians viewed her as sacred and thus let her live and didn't mistreat her. This is undoubtedly why she survived when the other women her age were killed. It is also why they let her sibling, baby (John) George, live as she no doubt cradled him. Elizabeth was born on July 05, 1763 in Virginia. It is quite possible that she was born in 1768. Most family legends, including the important Evans-Rupert LDS File, have her as 12 years old when she was taken captive in 1780 at Ruddles Station. This would mean that she was 18 when she married George, not 23. This compiler leans towards the birth date of 1768 for Elizabeth. Another argument to be made in favor of the later date is that a younger child would be more likely to be spared the inhumanities that victorious Indians inflicted on their older female captives.
now KYShe is named on George Ludwig Rupert's pension application as his wife. Her grave marker is located near his and it is inscribed: Elizabeth Rupert died Jan 5 1857 at about 100 yrs From Dee Nixon: On June 24, 1780, she was stolen from Ruddle's Station, Kentucky by Wyandot or another tribe of Indians along with Jacob and John George. She was taken prisoner by the Indians and was released after about six months. She had a deformed arm that ended at about elbow length and had fingerlike appendages on the end. She was said to be six foot tall in her stocking feet. The Indians were afraid of her because of her arm. They didn't want to displease their Gods and so they did not harm her. They released her at the Falls of the Ohio. It's possible her father was Henry Pursley.note of marriage in family bible

196. Peter WAGNER was born in 1736. He died before 1818 in Maryland?. He married Margaretha OSTER.
Information regarding the family of Peter Waggoner was provided by Joey Pedigo (jepedigo@juno.com) on Sep 18 2001 Notes for PETER WAGONER: "Family of Peter Wagoner" Washington Co, Maryland and Bedford Co., Pennsylvania Notes by Charles A. Lundquist Peter Wagoner, b. 1736/7 d. before 1818. The earliest comprehensive record of Peter Wagoner (alternatively Waggoner or Wagner) and his family occurs in the 1776 census for Elizabeth Town Hundred in Frederick County, Maryland [1,2]. Elizabeth Town Hundred was the original designation of the community around Elizabeth Town, a town founded by Jonathan Hager in 1762. Washington County was established from part of Frederick County in 1776, after the census, and Elizabeth Town was renamed Hagerstown in 1814. The census groups entries by sex and age, but from relative ordering and other subsequent information, the identification of Peter an dhis immediate family is clear, namely, Peter Wagoner, 39 years; Margaretha, his wife, 35, Elizabeth 10; Valentine, 7; and Conrad, 8 mos. This Peter Wagoner was evidently a member of the Reformed Church (later Zion Church) of Elizabeth Town. Records for this church formed primarily of people of German origin, begin in 1771. Elizabeth and Valentine were born before then, but the birth and baptism of Conrad (Conrath) are recorded on 1775 Nov. 9 and 1776 Jan 21, respectively [3]. This record gives Peter and Margretha Wagner as parents, and Conrath Oster as sponsor. An earlier entry, 1771 May 14, shows Peter Wagner and his housewife, Magtalena as sponsors for the baptism of Fridrich Arnolt [4]. Other records from the nearby Salem Reformed Church give Peter and Margretha Wagner as sponsors for the baptism of Joh. Peter Oster, the son of Vallentin and Elizabeth Oster, on 1772 Dec 25 [5]. A Peter Wagner was an early leader in the Reformed church of Elizabeth Town. The association with this church by the Peter discussed above, and the absence of a second Peter in the 1776 census and other contemporary documents justify the identification of this church leader as the same individual listed in the census. The historic Zion Reformed Church structure, still standing and used in Hagerstown, had a document placed in its cornerstone at its laying in 1774 Aug 10. This document states that "...William Heiser, a member and head of the community, was chosen for architect, who after meeting with his fellow workers, Philipp Oster, Peter Wagner, and Jacob Hauser, reached the decision to lay the cornerstone..." [6,7,8]. Peter is elsewhere referred to as a deacon of the church [7]. In a 1790 Jun 18 document, Peter Wagner signed as the Elder of the church, [6]. Hence, much evidence exists for the key role of Peter Wagoner in the earliest history of this historic congregation. Peter Wagoner was probably active in still earlier affairs of Frederick County. A 1766 petition of about 450 county inhavitants to Governor Horatio Sharpe asks the Govenor to call the assembly together for the purpose of issuing bills of credit to pay the public creditors,[9]. Peter Wagner was a signer of this. Philipp Oster's signature was adjacent to his, and those of Jonathan Hager and other Elizabeth Town residents were nearby in the list. Peter was in agreement with the struggle for independence by the American colonies. He is recorded as having taken an Oath of Fidelity to Maryland in 1778 [10, 11]. The first United States Census in 1790 tabulates a single Peter Waggoner family in Washington County, Maryland, with two males over 16, one male under 16, and one female [12]. These statistics are consistent with Peter, Valentine, Conrad and Margaretha, assuming that Elizabeh had left home by this date. In fact, other information confirms that Elizabeth had married Nicholas Barley prior to 1790. The typeset census entry following Peter is for Nicholas Bailey and his family. This is almost certainly a mistranscription of the letter "r" as an "i". Between 1790 and 1800 Peter, his children, and their families moved westward to Woodberry Township of Bedford County, Pennsylvania. A land warrant for 100 A in this county was issued to a Peter Wagner in 1794 May 9 [13]. The 1800 United States Census lists Peter Waggoner, Valentine Waggoner, and Nicholas Barrley as heads of families in Bedford County [14]. The entry for Peter's family comprises a male and female over 45 and a male 16-26. The latter is presumably Conrad, still at home with his parents. In 1810, the census again lists these families in Woodberry Township of Bedford County, but this time Conrad is shown as family head [15]. The age statistics for Conrad's family seem to indicate that he had married and had six children under 10, and that his elderly parents still lived with him. Land records for Bedford County in 1802 record that Peter Waggoner and his wife Margaret, Valentine Waggoner and his wife Magdalena, and Nicholas Birley and wife Elizabeth divided into three sections a 450 A tract of land called Fair Cove [16]. In 1807, Peter seems to have transferred title to Conrad for his part of the land [17]. Sometime before 1818, Peter and Margaretha died. In this year, a land transaction in Bedford County shows Valentine Waggoner, Conrad Waggoner, and Elizabeth Barley, late Elizabeth Waggoner, as heirs of Peter Waggoner [18]. At this time, Conrad and Elizabeth were still in Woodberry Township, but the address of Valentine is given as Sugar Creek Township, Stark County, Ohio. The origin and parentage of Peter Wagoner is unknown at present. He could have had relatives in Washington County,Maryland, although no evidence for such relationships has yet been located.
