ROWAN COUNTY.
' " BY J. XL ' .
; THE FIRST EUROPEAN SETTLERS.
The earliest settlements in North Carolina
were made on the coast, along Albemarle
and Pamlico Sounds,7 and near the mouth of
tlie Cape Fear riverr In a map of the in
habited parts of North Carolina, made by
John Lawson, the surveyor general, in 1709,
we see Jhe outlines of .the settlements. The
line commences at the mouth of Currituck
inlet, and sweeps round in a semi-circle,
crossing the Roanoke at Aconeche island,!
passing by the head of Pamlico Sound,
crossing the Neuse near the mouth of Con
tentnea creek, and so on east of where Fay
etteville now stands, to the Atlantic, thirty
miles south of the month of the Cape Fear.
The population was then less than sereu
thousand (Hawks, toI. 1. p. 80.) In twenty
years more about three thousand had been
added to the population, and there were
five small towns: Bath, Newbern, Edenton,
Beaufort and Brunswick. Of these Eden
ton was called the Metropolis.
Inthe year 1729 thc King of Great Britain,
according to act of Parliament, purchased
seven eights of the territory of the Carolinas
from the Lords Proprietors, for 2500 pounds
lor each eighth part, j But John, Earl of
Granville, the son aqd heir of sir George
Carteret, refused to part with his portion,
and his lands were laid off to him, extend
ing from latitude 35, 34" to the Virginia
line, and westward to the south sea, or Pa
cific Ocean ! It is within the limits of Earl
Granville's lands and on the western portion
of them that Rowan county was situated.
The Royal Governors of North Carolina
were as follows: George Burriugton, 1731-34;
Nathaniel Rice, 1734 a few months. Ga
briel Johnston, 1734-1753; Nathaniel Rice,
1752-3; Matthew Rowan, 1753-4. During
the terms of these governors the population
rolled upwards and westward, county after
county being set off as tlie land was occupi
ed. Bladen was set off from New Hanover
in 1734, Anson from Bladen in 1749, Rowan
from Anson in 1753, and Mecklenburg from
Ansonin 1762. Of course population was in
advance of county organizations, and there
was a sufficient number of settlers in thc
territory of Rowan, previous to 1753, to de
mand a separate county government. But
it becomes a difficult task to ascertain when,
and from whence, came the first white set
tlers. In his Sketches of North Carolina, Col.
Wheeler says: "Rowan was early settled
(about 1720,) by the Protestants from Mo
ravia, fleeing from thc persecutions of Fer
dinand the second ; and by the Scotch, who,
cfter the-unsuccesi'ul attempts of Charles
Edward, grandson of James the Second, to
ascend the English throne, and .'whose for
tunes were destroved on tlie fatal field of
Culloden (16th April, 1746,) had fled to this
couptry; and by the Irish, who after the
rebellion of the Earls of Tyrone aud Tys
connel, in the times of James the First, were
forced to leave the country. These, or their
ancestors, previously had come from Scot
land, and hence the term Scotch Irish."
( Wheeler art. Hotcan County,) It would be
difficult to crowed more mistakes into one
short paragraph, than arc found in this
brief accountof the settlement .of Rowan.
First of all, Ferdinand the Second, Emjier
or of Germany, reigned from 1618 to 1648,
more than one hundred years lefore the
time required, and the Moravians, or united
brethren, did not appear in Moravia until
1722, in England in 1728, in' New York and
Georgia in 1736, and in North Carolina, not
until 1753. Again very few of the Scotch
came to Rowan directlj, but to the Cape
Fear section, and not there in numbers till
some time after 1746. It was not the na
tive Irish, after the rebellion of Tyrone and
Tyrconnel, who came here, but the descend
ants of the Scotch whom James I. had placed
on their escheated lands, who cante to Row
an. They remained in Ireland for more
than one hundred years, enduring many
trials and disabilities during that period,
and then in the early part of the 18th Cen
tury emigrated to New Jersey, and Penn
sylvania, and from thence to North Carolina.
The earlest settlements in Rowan of which
we have any accurate knowledge were made
about 1737. Dr. Foote.-in his Sketches of
North Carolina, states that the Scotch-Irish
began their settlements in Shenandoah val
ley iu Virginia in 1737, and in North Caro
lina soon afterwards. Some scattered fami
lies followed the Trading Path and settled
in chosen spots from the Roanoke to the
Catawba. As the Indians were friendly,
and the caravans of the traders frequent,
it would be but natural that emigrants
would be attracted by their glowing descrip
tions of the fertile prairies that lay between
the Yadkin and the Catawba a land
abounding iu game, and whose streams were
stocked with fish, and its flowery meadows
affording pasturage, for their cattle. (See
Foote p. 188.)
Fortunately for the settlement of' this
point, the Clark family, who have resided
on thc Cape' Fear since about 1745, have
preserved memoranda, showing that as ear
ly as the year 1746, a family or a company
of emigrants, weut west of the Yadkin to
join some other families that were living
sequestered in that fertile region. (II. 189.)
Thus .it appears that there were settlers,
families residing here previous to . 1746.
They would scarcely think it necessary to
enter lands in a region where all was open
to them, and if they did, their deeds would
be recorded in the court of Bladen or New
Hanover, of which Rowan then constituted
a part. It is worthy of notice that there
was once a settlement, and a church of thc
Scotch in South Rowan, called Crystal
Springs, and in the old minutes of the Prcs
tcrian Church, Crystal Springs andSalisbury
are represented a3 asking tlbr ministerial
supplies. This church was about ten miles
nearly south of Salisbury, near the residence
of Dr. Paul Siftord, and iu its old grave
yard lie the remains of the MePhcrsons, the
Mahans, the Longs, and others. Since 1812
this church has not leen in existence, as it
is said that at that time the members were
transferred to Old Bcthphage, about .eight
or ten miles west of Crystal Springs.
But the Scotch-Irish ! were probably the
most numerous and thc leading people of
thc settlement, lhe old Records ot the
Court here show the names of many of these
old families, some of them now extinct, such
as the Nesbits, Allisons, Brandons, Luckeys,
Lockes, McCullochs, Grahams, Cowans, Mc
Kenzics, Barrs, Andrews, Osbornes, Sharpes,
lioones, McLauchlins, Halls, with many
others whose names are as familiar as house
hold words.
But along with these Scotch Irish immi
grants, and settling side by side with them,
there came settlers of another nationality
to,whom Rowan is no less indebted for her
material wealth and prosperity. These were
the Germans, or as they were familiarly call
ed the "Pennsylvania Dutch." They - were
of course not of -Dutchor sHolland extrac
tion, but Germans from the Palatinate, and
from Ilesscn Cassel, i llessen Tlomburg,
Darmstadt, and the general region . of the
upper and middle Rhine. Prominent among
these for its histor; and the numbers of its
emigrants is the Palatinate, or "Pfalznas it
is called 'inithe maps of Germany. This
country lies on the western banks of the
Rhine, below Strasburg, and along the east
ern boundaries of France. This beautiful
land is watered by numerous small streams,
the. tributaries of the Rhine, and is divided
by aange of mountains, thcllaaidts, run-
njng from north to south. Manhcim and
Speyer (Spires) are the two principles cities,
situated on the 'Rhine, I while Neustadt,
An weilcr, Zwei brack en, Leningen,are among
its towns. This Pro? ince was the theatre
of many bloody and atrocious deeds during
tlie reign of Louis the fourteenth, of France,
a time when! such great generals as the
Prince of Conde, Marshal Turenne, Prince
Eugene, the Duke of Marlborouglt, and Wil
liam, Prince of Orange; won glory or infamy
o the bloody field of battle. It was in the
Palatinate that Turenne sullied his glory by
aa act of the most savage barbarity in lay
ing waste the! country with fire and sword,
reducing two jcities and twenty five villages
to ashes, and leaving the innocent inhabi
tants to perish of cold aud hunger; while
thjc unfortunate Elector j looked helplessly
ojl from the walls bf his palace at Manheim.
Ahd a few yean after Louis again invaded
the Palatinate1,' and laid the cities of Mentz,
Philipsburg, Spires, and j forty others,' with
numerous villages; in ashes. "Thus this lit-
tty principality, whose inhabitants by their
industry ana peaceable habits had made it
the most thriving and happy State in Ger
many, was literally turned into a desert.
Ravaged by fire and sword, and trodden
dkwn under the iron heel of despotism, the
wretcneu innauitants were lerceu at last to
itave meir ucauuiui country ana seek: a
home among ( strangers I Their first place
oij reiuge was tne actnerianas, where a lib
eral and Protestant government afforded
them a safe asylum . j
jFrom the fNetherlancis many of them
found their wiy into England, w'here Queen
Afine gave them a safe refuge from their
enemies. But England was itself a populous
country, and the English government dcter
mjned to induce as many of the Palatines
a3; possible to jcross the Atlantic and become
settlers in the1 American Colonies. In that
brpad land they ' could find comfortable
holmes, and by their industry they might
niake its deserts blossom! as the rose. Some
of them came' over with 0c Qraffenriedand
Mitchell and found homes on the lowef wa
ters of thc Neuse, where a New "Berne
wduhl remind: the Swiss portion of the col
onists of the old Berne they had left behind
thi'in among the Alps, j Others found homes
in the State of New Yort, and others still
in I Charleston South Carolina, and along
th banks of theOongaree and Saluda riv
ers. Many others from this general section
of Germany settled in Lehigh, Northamp
ton, Berks and Lancaster! counties in Penn
sylvania. Finding this Country thickly set
tled and good, land to bo secured only at
high prices, in a few years they turned their
attention southward. " IUre Earl Granville's
lanjds lately let off to him were offered at
a cheap rate,! and the climate was much
nioe mild than in thc homes they had cho
sen! in Pennsylvania. The first arrival of
Germans in Western North Carolina, in the
boikndsif old Rowan is j believed to have
taken place about 1745, jt hough it was five
years later that the great body of them
came. The stream thus started continued
to flow on for years, 'many of them arriving
alter tne revolutionary war. They travelled
with their household goods and the women
and children in wagons, the men and boys
walking and driving their cattle and hogs
before them. iThey came side by side with
their Scotch Ifish neighbors, sometimes set
tling in the same community with them.
and at other times occupying alternate belts
or sections of country. Thus we can trace
a German stream through Guilford, David
son, Rowan and Cabarrus counties, and just
by its side a stream of Scotch Irish. But
as years passed away these streaois, like the
currents of the Missouri, and Mississppi riv-
ers, nave minjjieii into one, resultin in a
mixed race of German-Scotch-Irish, jwrpet
uating thc virtues and- perhaps also the
weaknesses of all the races. . JJlr. Bernheim,
in Ins interesting work;jon German settle
ments in North and South Carolina, has
given a list of names, found in common use
in Pennsylvania and in N. C, such as Propst,
Bostian, Kline - (CI inc.) Trexler. Schlough,
Seitz, (bides,) IRhcinhardt, Biber, (Beaver,)
Kohiiiian, (Coleman,) Dorr, (Dry,) Berger.
(Barrier,) Bchringer, (Barringer). To this
list may be added ether; names familiar in
Rowan county, such us Bernhardt, Heilig,
Mcisenheimer, Beard, Mull, Rintelman, (Ren-
dleman,) Layrle, (Lyerly,) Kuhn, (Coon,)
Friese, Eisenhauer, Yost, Ovcrcash, Boger,
Suther, Winedff, Cress, IWalcher. Ilarkey,
Savitz, Ilenkel; Moser, Braun, (Brown,) and
many others familiar to all our people. The
German settler have generally been remark
able for industry, economy, and the habit
of jiving within their means and not get
tinginto debt.!
During their sojourn here of a century
anq a quarter they have passed through the
ordieal of changing tlieir lancruajie. As the
laws were written and expounded in Ens;-
lisli, and all public affairs conducted in that
language, the Germans (were incapable of
taking part, iu most eases, in public affairs.
Heiiice letting public affairs alone, and at-
t j .i
icuuui! to iiieir none interests, tney sur
rounded themselves with well tilled farms.
and adorned their premises with capacious
barns and thrashing floors. Who has not
seen the immense double barns, with wide
double doors, to admit a fourhorse wagon
with its towering load bf hay, or straw or
wheat; and the thrashing floor, where the
horses tramped out 'the wheat, and the
"wipd-mill" blew thc chaff into the chaff
houjse? And jtrho has forgotten the long
stables where the cows were yoked to the
troughs, each oine knowing her place, while
theicalvee were tied to a trough at the other
wall?
But the "Pennsylvania Dutch," has almost
ceased to be heard on our streets where
oncte its quaint! tones of mingled German,
French and English were so familiar. The
dtaject is gone jbut the accent and the idiom
stil linger on iany tongue?, and the tradi
tions and folkilorp of .the- old world still
floV in a deep kinder current in many fam
ilies. I ' ' ' "
Not long after the' Scotch-Irish and
Pennsylvania Germans came into the terri
tory of old Rowan came another people that
have added muh to the wealth of the State,
I mean the Moravians or United Brcthern.
These! neonle hurchased a tract of 98.985
acrc8, called thy "Wachovia Tract," in what
is now Forsythp county, but originally Ro
wan. This was in 1751. but the deed for
the tract was jsigned in 1753, and in thc
autumn of this year twelve single brethren
came from Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, and
bean the settlement of Bethabara. Beth
any was founded in 1759, and Salem in 1786,
Frieidbury and iFreidland, in 1769 and 1770.
In J804 the well-known Salem Female
Academy was founded, at which many of
the fair daughters of the South have been
educated. j
Along with 'these settlers from Ireland
and Germany cme,Trom timelo time, others
of English, Welsh and Scotch descent, who

Although Rowan was not settled by cav
alier or Huguenots, or by the aristocracy of
old world society, she has good reason to
be proud of thd early pioneers who laid here
the feundations of their homes. They were

science sake, or j fled from despotism to seek

Ago of Trees; ;:.
j jMn. Enrroit: In the last issue of ronr
paper, one of your correspondents raises
some questions on the above subject f
u iv jr reier to your readers to be
answered. . ; - - ": ; .
'As to whether there are any trees in
Western Carolina 100 years old, no doubt
there are myriads of them. A black oak
iu the yard of John Finley, near Wilkes
boro, was not longr since pointed out to
me by au aged lady as having been, from
authentic traditiou, about the size of a
man'a body in 1775, when the place was
settled by the Gordons, whoso dwelliu"
was built on tho snot where the preseut
one stands. It is evidently a tree of the
original forest, as no pioneer would have
planted an oak for oruament when they
were so abundant j and apart from the
traditiou, it must have been of considera
ble size in those days, tor a small shrub
near the door would have been J cleared
away. It stands on a high hill in rather
thin soil, and is not Tery large, scarcely
three feet through, but begins to show
decided marks of age and decrepitude.
It must be over 150 years old. A compan
ion tree, near it and much like it, was
broken down by a storm three years ago,
being weakened by iuterual decay.
In Wilkesboro, also, is still to be seen
the old oak on which Cleavelaud used to
make the Tories "thumb Vie notch," as he
called it, while he whipped patriotism in
to or deviltry out of them, about 100 years
ago. This tree is uo doubt 150 years old,
and yet shows vitality and vigor, as if
inspired by the memory of the bold deeds
done under it. Shall it outlive that lib
erty whoso birth pangs it sawl
I I have mentioned these because they
are well known to have been standing
much more than a century. Many oaks
in our forests are evidently as old or old-
er The oak is probably our longest-lived
tree, though most likely the black oak;
for I believe it grows more slowly, and
slow growth means long life. They all
grpw some, as long as they live and leaf;
for the aunual running of the sap adds a
ring, such as are seeu iu the trunks of
moat trees. On our high mouutains, ma
ny oaks are found quite large in diameter
at the base, but tapering very rappidly,
and of small height The sap runs annu
ally and expands their trunks as else
where, but tho brevity of their summer
forbids their shoots to lengthen much,
and so they are shorn of their normal al
titude. I saw ou Negro Mountain, in
Asho county j a very remarkable specimen
of this sort in a white oak over two feet
through near the base, with large limbs
branching out three feet above the ground,
and both the trunk aud all its limbs ta
pering 6o fast that the whole was scarcely
20 feet high. It looked like it had tried
hard to get up in the world, but fate was
against it. I could not forbear taking off
my hat to tho squatty old fellow and ex
claiming, "I honor you, sir. You have
done what you could under hard condi
tions. Fit emblem of many a noble soul
ciampt and kept down by adversity.!"
There are some very old poplars iu the
country. Near my native place in Ran
dolph county stood a poplar, till lately,
which old people say three men with out
stretched arms could hardly span iu 1305,
as those reported who then tried it. It has
chauged very little in looks or size iu the
last forty years and 1 do uot know for
Ihjw much longer. Being hollow in the
centre all the way np, it was from an un
reported period a favorite home for coons
and other varmints. Old hunters of a by
gone time had chopped into its hollow on
one side. But it was reserved for "young
America, with their usual irreyerence for
venerable things, to cut down this old
patriarch of the woods recently in pursuit
of squirrels. What i autiquity to a boy
when" he is after a squirrel, rabbit, or
'possum! But still its huge trunk looks
like it might lie there till long after the
youngsters who felled it are laid low, too.
Ancient trees like this are generally
found standing in places where the damp
ness of the grouud or some other local
cause saved them in their early days from
death by tlie Indian fires, which used-to
kill most of the young trees and kept this
regiou formerly, as the pioneers reported,
very thinly clad with timber. ''Here and
there, however, by luck or chance, a tree
would escape the general destruction, and
some of these still stand, thc grand-fathers
of the sylvan family. It is easy to
distinguish them, and they are very old.
lhe English oak lives o(KJ years. It is
very haidv and of slow -growth. Ours
probably does not live so long. But I
have no doubt some could be found 300
years of age.
Are tho years of trees shown by the
number of concentric rings in Us trunk T
Undoubtedly. This is proven by many
tests which any intelligent observer an
apply. For instance, look at the stumps
of several healthy trees newly felled and
near together, where tho trees must have
crown under the samo conditions of cli
mate, soil, and moisture. Beginning at
the outside and tracing inward, you will
find such a correspondence in the thick
ness or thinness of tho rinns which tally
in date iu all the trees, as very plainly to
show the similar lunueuce of similar. sea
sons upon their growth. An observer can
easily count back in this way to the Tery
wet summers or tho very dry ones, espe
ciallv iu trees which crow ou high aud
dry- uplands, where tho different effect of
raiuv and drv summers on the trees is
more marked, of course, than in places
always moist. I have often amused my
self, in inr rambles, counting back' on
stumps to the notable seasons J rcniem
bcr. Almost any fresh stump ou high
eround will serve the purpose. Trees
like other plants grow faster when they
have nlentv of rain, and often die from
T - t f
drouth.
, Another proof of the correspondence of
the rnias to tho vears when they were
formed, is found in tho- change which oc
curB iu their character at whatever date
and during whatever period the tree is in
any special condition, as of blight or in
jury, or the removal of a thick forest
around it which retards its growth. The
number of rings will tally with the num
ber of years in every such case. The date
when old land lines were run arcdjnarked
with an axe, is found to correspond with
the rings which have formed since the
wound was made in the tree; and no mat
ter how this may be grown over, by chop
ping in you can get the evidence. Blocks
riven from line trees arg.uot uncommonly,
brought into the Court-House to show by
their rings the date of a deed, or
grant;, this principle in regard to the
growth of trees being so fully estauasnea
by observation that it is recognized and
acted upon in our courts, and evidence
based upon it often has au important
bearjng m the trial of land suits.
Some species of trees have these rings
so indistinct and ill-defined that thuy can
not be counted with accuracy. Rutin the
piiie, and most of the oaks,and many oth-,
ers1, they-are distinct and easily ; counted I
and furnish perfectly 'truthful testimony
as Ui the trees age. The only misfortnne
is that you have to destroy or greatly m-'
jure the tree to discover it. . ' '
But l snail weary your reauers, aua so
must $top this long rigmarole which I be
gan with the intention of making but a'
paragraph. My only excuse for prolong
wig it is that I am passionately foud of
trees, which seems to me almost sentient
witl spirits to feel and thiuk and
wliuper. i T wish they could talk aud tell
us what they have seen. I have some old
acquaintance- among them whicli seem
like dear friends. ; , Duuid: -'
