McClanahan Notes from FTDNA:
NOTES ON VIRGINIA BAPTISTS, 1772, by Morgan Edwards.
Mr. William McClanahan, born February 23, 1733 in Westmoreland County, Virginia. Bred a churchman. Embraced the sentiments of Baptists. Baptized in 1768 by Samuel Harris. His convictions were without means (?? MLM), and very strong. Moved to pray when he heard singing. Ordained. Married Mary Marshall. Children: Thos., William (see ante Rev. William?s will), Peter, Elvira, Ann, Mary, Alice.
He was in gaol in Orange County: Warrant for his arrest ?
Whereas we have received information that Nathaniel Saunders and William McClanahan, stiling (sic) themselves Protestant Divinities, does teach and Preach contrary to the laws and usages of the Kingdom of Great Britain, raising sedition and stirring up strife among his Majesties? Liege people.
Therefore in his Majesties name we require your Samuel Ferguson and John Lillard to take Nathaniel Saunders and William McClanahan and bring before some Justice of the Peace and there allowed to be examined touching the charges, and we condemn all his majesties subject to be aiding and abetting in the said execution thereof.
Given under our hands and seals this 21st day of August 1773 to the Sheriff of Orange, Constable??..) Signed: John Slaughter
And to Samuel Ferguson) George M. Weatherall
NO LICENSE (Document is quite faded, MLM)
NORTHERN NECK HISTORICAL MAGAZINE, Dec. 1951, pub. At Montrose, Westmoreland County, Virginia, pg. 16:??Previous to this, and indeed as early as 1771, William McClanahan was going about through the wilderness very much in the manner of John the Baptist and preaching the Gospel of Salvation by baptism. Northumberland can justly claim William McClanahan as her own, for the family is registered and referred to in the St. Stephens Parish Records?? (see ante, pg. 134).
Mr. Woodford B. Hackley, Va. Baptish Church historian: ?He was pastor of the original Upper Carter?s Run Church, Fauquier County. The earliest remaining records were kept by storekeeper Peter Hitt, treasurer of the church. At one time he paid William McClanahan money for expenses to go to the Association. He (William) was a magistrate, probably a J.P. in Culpepper (now Rappahannock) County, and the church was called Upper Carter?s Run Church. He acknowledged many deeds in that section of the county.
The Baptist Church at Jeffersonton, Culpepper County, was founded in Fauquier County ca. 1773. That structure lasted until 1819, and was just over the Rappahannock River, the part then called Hedgeman?s River, so it was called Hedgemen?s River Church.
The Baptist church called Mt. Poney (now Culpepper Church) was founded in 1774 from Mountain Run Church in Orange County, and was at least sixteen or seventeen miles from Jeffersonton, at least two miles beyond the town of Culpepper on the road to Stevensburg.? (Nathaniel Saunders was its first pastor ? for many years). ?I joined it in 1905, the Hedgeman?s River Church ca. six miles from Jeffersonton in Fauquier.?
From the Religious Herald: The first Baptist Church in Culpepper was in (now) Rappahannock County near Mulkey or Mulky Mountain ca. one mile from present Washington ? ?the first Washington? the natives call it, on land given by Thomas McClanahan. The church lasted but two years.
Part of the members of the original Carter?s Run Church seem to have gone to Battle Run Church; the others into Fauquier County to found Fiery Run Baptist Church.
With the rapidly growing indignation of the colonists toward their second class citizenship ? with Parliament at the behest of the English merchants passing laws severely restricting their trades and manufactures and ?hard money,? Rev. William McClanahan, as Captain of his fellow Baptists in a company of Minute Men, regularly preached to them (Notes of Culpepper, ante), the Major was Thomas Marshall, son John a Lieutenant, later becoming Chief Justice of the U.S.A. Only John Peter Muhlenburg, a neighbor, joined Rev. McClanahan as a religious leader in the field at the request of Congress ? Reverend Muhlenburg becoming a general in the Continental Army.
Mr. Raleigh Travers Green in his Notes on Culpepper County, adding to Dr. Slaughter?s St. mark?s Parish data, stated that the Baptists were among the most strenuous supporters of liberty, and that the Culpepper-Fauquier Battalion wore green hunting shirts with ?Liberty or Death? inscribed on their shirt fronts. He added that John Pickett was Pastor of Mt. Poney Church until 1790 ? its constituents were from Carter?s Run, Fauquier County. The name was changed to Culpepper 29 April 1873.
Confined to jail in Culpepper County for their faith: Rev?s. John Pickett; Elijah Craig, taken while at his plow; the worst punishment was received by James Ireland of Edensburg, baptized by Samuel Harris in 1769-?70. He suffered from abuses, the weather, poisoning, gunpowder, suffocation, etc. ? about a hundred instances. Several other preachers were mentioned by Green, in punishments.
?Tho records are lost, Captain McClanahan must have kept up his membership at Carter?s Run. It was closer ? he was an original member. After the Revolution he lived on the upper part of Indian Run. I grew up on the lower part of the stream, but I know that part of the country pretty well. The last land he sold was not far from Battle Mountain, sort of betwixt and between Viewtown and Amissville. Thomas Corbin patented the land on which he lived.?
Fauquier Co. Mg. Bk. #1, pg. 411, July 15, 1793: William McClanahan, Culpepper: ?I do hereby certify I am willing that Peggy Berden (Bender?) alias Timber, a free colored mulatto who was bound to me, should intermarry with James Nickins, both of whom are people of color.?
Excerpt, Pension application of Samuel Burke, wife Mary, of Jessamine County, KY, aged 73 years: ??I entered the service of Captain William McClanahan of Culpepper County, VA?.marched to Williamsburg, then returned home. I volunteered to stay, so I enlisted in the company of Capt. Abraham Buford, unit #7. In the company of McClanahan and Buford we marched from Williamsburg to the Long Bridge and fought the enemy?marched to Norfolk. The Col. Was Stephen. The Major was Thos. Martin?marched from Norfolk to Suffolk?thence to Portsmouth under Major Scott. From Portsmouth to Culpepper and was discharged in 1777, etc., etc.

In a list of Revolutionary War Pensioners for Lincoln
County, KY under the Act of March 18, 1818 and the Act of
June 7, 1832, there is one "Divin, James, Ensign, VA Line,
30 Jan 1833, $120, age 86". YOB is real close to the
assumed birth year of this James.
(Dessa Hofstetter; "The Devin Family"; page 1; From the
Pittsylvania County, Virginia Courthouse records are the
following items:
- James Devin, plaintiff in a law suit March 1774.
- William and James Devin exempted from working roads March
1773.
- James Devin sworn as ensign in militia 1789 . . . March
court)
James fought against England in the Revolutionary War
(Dessa Hofstetter; "The Devin Family"; page 2; ...William
and Sarah Devin's four oldest sons were in the
Revolutionary War...).
COURT RECORDS Book #10 Pittsylvania Co VA Feb 1803 says one
James Devin discontinued as an undersheriff (deputy
sheriff).
Pension # S-16365 (or16165) (affidavid dated 24.Sep.1832)
for James Divin of Lincoln County, Kentucky states he was a
resident of Pittsylvania County Virgina when he served as
an ensign in Captain Brewer's company of the Virginia
Militia. Age 84 when application was made.
James is the twin brother of John Devin
POB from Ancestral File
Birth date calculated from stated age of 84 when affidavit
was given and date of the ARW Pension affidavit dated
24.Sep.1832. If accurate, James could be born anywhere
between Sept. 1747 and Sept. 1748.
His birth circa 1748 would also agree with him being listed
on the 1767 List of Tithables for Pittsylvania County
Virginia. He would have been about 19 in 1767, and any male
over the age of 16 was listed.

Dessa's Booklet quotes (page 5) a letter from Robert Ira
Devin to Alfred Harrison Devin, saying "My grandfather
William Devin, Jr. was born in Pittsylvania County, Va. and
was a soldier three years in the War of the Revolution. Two
of his brothers, John and Robert, were with him in the
army. John was severly wounded by being shot through the
body, but he, wonderful to relate, entirely recovered and
afterward died at the home of his lady love to whom he was
engaged to be married, while on a visit to see her. The
pantaloons he had on when wounded were preserved for many
years by the family as an heirloom that showed the bullet
hole on each side that passed through his body."

11. | William Devin (3.Sarah2, 1.Mary1) was born Abt 1752, Pittsylvania County, Virginia; died 28 Apr 1810, Pittsylvania County, Virginia. Notes:
The following chain of evidence shows the relationship of William Devin, Jr. to his father, William Devin, Sr., both of Pittsylvania County Virginia:
i. William Devin, Sr.'s will dated 25.Nov.1800 recorded in Pittsylvania County VA Deed & Will Book 11 pages 243-244 on 19 Apr.1802 specifically names "William Devin Junr" as one of his children. "Deed book 9/498/499 This tract of land is "...the Land ajoining thereto and bounded as followeth, by William Devin Jr lines on the South,..." in William Devin, Sr.'s will."
William, Jr. fought against England in the Revolutionary War (Dessa Hofstetter; "The Devin Family"; page 2; ...William and Sarah Devin's four oldest sons were in the Revolutionary War...). Dessa's booklet also quotes, on page 5, a letter from Robert Ira Devin to Alfred Harrison Devin, saying "My grandfather William Devin, Jr. was born in Pittsylvania County, Va. and was a soldier three years in the War of the Revolution. Two of his brothers, John and Robert, were with him in the army..."
William Jr. participated in the battles of Monmouth, Brandywine, Germantown and others. While in the army, he had small-pox and almost lost his life. His face was left badly marked with pits.
He and his wife, Martha, may have moved to Kentucky in 1785, but returned to Virginia in 1789. William Jr. was a devout member of the Presbyterian Church. His wife described him to be medium size, compactly built about 5 feet 10 or 11 inch, blue eyes, light hair, and weighed about 160 pounds. He had a florid complexion. William Jr. died of cancer 28 April 1810.

12 Oct. 1832. Pittsylvania Co.; Va. Robert (X) Devin of
said county, aged near 73, declares he enlisted on 20 Jan.
1777 under Capt. Henry Conway at Smith's Store, then
Pittsylvania Court House, for three years and took up the
line of march from their rendezvous on 17 March following
with Capt. henry Conway, 1st Lt. Cyrus Roberts, 2nd Lt.
Drury Oliver and Ens. William Jenkins for headquarters at
Middlebrook, N.J., and was there attached to the 14th
Virginia Regiment. On the march they joined Maj. Abraham
Buford and Capt. Lambert at New London and Bedford Court
House, then went by Fredericksburg and Alexandria, and on
their way they were inoculated at Dumfries, Va., for the
small pos. In Alexandria they went through the operation of
the small pox and about 1 May all that were fit for duty
were marched for headquarters at Middlebrook, passing by
Baltimore and Philadelphia. On the march Col. Lewis, the
commandant of the regiment, joined them. From Middlebrook
they marched to the north and halted some days in the
highlands of New York where the American army was divided.
Gen. Gates took command of a part of the army and went on
to the north. Gen. Washington with the remainder returned
through Philadelphia to meet the British who landed at the
head of Elk, Md. In marching toward
page 50
head of Elk and after a number of skirmishes on previous
days, on 11 Sept. 1777 the alarm gun fired in their
batteries which were thrown up the night before at
Brandywine and the battle immediately commenced and
continued until about sunset when Gen. Greene's division,
including Weedon's brigade, retreated. He was in Weedon's
brigade. They marched a greater part of the night toward
Philadelphia. At this time Mud Island and Red Bank forts
ere closely besieged by the enemy. His regiment with a
number of other troops marched down the river with a view
to reinforce and support the forts. Having been informed
the forts were evacuated, they went back, recrossed the
river and went by Philadelphia and rejoined the army near
German town. On 4 October the battle of Germantown was
fought. He was not in that battle. When it was about to
commence he, being on the sick list, was sent off with the
baggage. After that the 14th Virginia Regiment was reduced
to the 10th. About Christmas they were marched to winter
quarters on the Schuylkill at Valley Forge.
On the opening of the campaign the next spring nothing of
importance occurred until the British army evacuated
Philadelphia on 12 June 1778. They went toward Sandy Hook.
At Somerset Court House a detached party was called for out
of the troops, which was to be commanded by Gen. Lafayette
and to march that night. Washington moved off the next
morning toward Monmouth Court house with the main body of
the army, where it was understood Lafayette was to make a
stand provided he overtook and attacked the rear of the
enemy and could draw them to Monmouth Court House. Next
morning they heard the firing. He was with Washington. They
went on to support the troops that were engaged. The
Virginia troops were in the rear. The battle grew very
warm. Capt. Fantleroy among others was killed. In a short
time Gen. Lee, who was commander of the left wing of the
army, rode up and asked who commanded these troops. Lt.
Col. Buford answered, I do, sir. Gen. Lee ordered him to
put his troops in order to march that he would show them
where to go. They then retraced their ground four or five
miles and halted until information came that Washington and
Lafayette had drawn the enemy. From there they marched to
Somerset Court House, crossed the Hudson River at King's
Ferry and went on to the White Plains where they camped and
stayed for some time. There he had a severe spell of
sickness. On recovering a little he and others were marched
to Quibbletown on the Hudson. There they got on board a
shallop and were carried up the river above West Point and
from there t a recruiting hospital where they stayed a
considerable time. When he got fit for duty he was removed
and joined his same regiment in the fall of the year at
Robertson' Plains, opposite West Point, where they remained
a good while and worked in the fort until they moved to
winter quarters at Middlebrook in Jersey. This ended the
second campaign.
In commencing the campaign of 1789 [1779] nothing worthy of
notice occurred until 16 July. Brig. Gen. Muhlenburg with
his brigade being stationed on the mountains near Hudson
River as a guard between Stony Point, occupied by the
British, and
page 51
West Point by our troops, the troops were notified that
Gen. Washington would review them. The troops were put in
motion, marched down through the mountains and got into a
valley thickly settled. Guards were placed at every house
to prevent any person passing. The brigade formed in a
line; white paper was distributed to all the soldiers to
put in their hats. They lay in line until late in the night
and received orders to march as private as possible toward
the fort and in as good order as possible as it was through
the woods and dark. He was near enough to hear the British
sentinels hail a column of light infantry that was
advancing on the fort. The Americans made no answer but
rushed on. The British guard fired and it was said killed
three or four of our men. The infantry proceeded and the
guard and part of our infantry entered the gate together.
It was said the attack commenced between 12 and 1 at night.
Our troops were ordered not to fire again but rush into
their lodgings and use the bayonet. Our watch word was the
forts our own and if not answered on or the other must die
by the bayonet. The confusion and noise in the fort cannot
be described. It was said that it lasted about 21 minutes
but in a short time ceased. He was in Muhlenburg's brigade,
still formed in the line as a reserve outside of the fort,
which position they continued in until day. They continued
in the fort three days and nights, engaged in demolishing
the fort and removing ammunition and other plunder, putting
them on shallops to send up to West Point. After this was
done they evacuated the fort and went to their different
positions. After this nothing of importance occurred. They
were kept moving hither and yon until fall. In December the
Virginia troops were divided in lots according to the time
of their enlistment, after which they took up the line of
march for Virginia to be discharged. They were much
retarded in their march and they marched to Philadelphia
and quartered in the old barracks, called Braddock's. There
they suffered a good deal and being informed that Col.
Christian Febiger was authorized to discharge them, he
applied to him for himself, his brother and a few more.
They were discharged 4 Feb. 1780.
After being home some time he was informed the discharges
were required to be sent to Richmond for the purpose of
receiving land warrants and a 6 per cent certificate.
He was born in Lancaster Co., Pa., 6 April 1759. he has
lived in Pittsylvania Co., Va., since the war.

John Devin Reynolds is the 2nd son of Joseph M. Reynolds and his wife, Margaret Devin. Named for his Uncle John, and his Mother's Maiden name [Devin], he was born in 1783. He died 18 Mar 1831. His death was not an easy one. He writhed in agony from what we know today, as kidney stones, and after 9 days, finally succumbed to his exhaustion. His wife, described his agony and mortification in a letter to her daughter, Herodias in Missouri.
Because John's father, Joseph M. Reynolds had two wives, he enjoyed the company of 17 siblings. Eldest brother, Hugh is beginning his family in the same year his father produces his final heir.
Absolute documented proof, and multiple dna matches, confirm the father of Joseph M. Reynolds, and grandfather of John Devin Reynolds, is Hugh Reynolds of Lancaster, Pennsylvania and Pittsylvania County Virginia.

There is a possibility the William might be the William
Devin in the 1820 census for Lincoln county Tennessee.
However, it is more likely William B. W. Devin is the
William Devin in the 1820 Census for Pittslyvania County
Virginia. The enumeration for the Pittsylvania County
census is consistant with his mother and younger brother
living with him along with his mother's slave, Hannah and
Hannah's children.
The William Devin in the 1820 Lincoln County Tennessee was
enumerated in close proximaty to an Olliver family, which
may indicate the Lincoln county William is William Robert
Devin, son of William Devin, Jr. as William R. married
Rebecca Oliver in 1820.

[Judith Bone; email 19990129] On the inside of the front
cover of a bible in possession of Judith Bone (1999) reads:
Nancy Smith Devin bible bought in Princeton from the Bible
Society Year 1833 Price $1,37. In about the middle of the
Bible there are about eight pages of family genealogy.
Most of it in one person's writing, but there are things
added by some one else later. The book is old and I do not
take it out and touch it much as the pages are falling
apart. This Bible was Nancy's and then to her daughter Mary
Elizabeth (Smith) DeuFriend. After her death, it passed to
her daughter Esther Devin (DeuFriend)
Sullivan/Castor/Morgan, my Father's Aunt. After Ester's
death, the Bible came to my Dad's house and my step mother
sent it to me.
