at Solida Creek near Sulpher Springs, Grayson, VA. Rev. Amos (Isaac Amos) Moore "HISTORICAL SKETCHES OF LAWRENCE COUNTY", THE IRONTON
REGISTER, IRONTON, OHIO. "MOORE FAMILY HISTORY...In 1607 the
colony of Virginia was founded by John Smith. Pocahontas, an Indian maiden whose
father was Chief Powahatan, saved Smith's life when he was threatened by Indians.
"Later, John Rolfe, a prominent figure in early Virginia, educated and civilized
Pocahontas after he married her. They went to England where she was presented to
Queen Elizabeth I, who made her a Lady and gave her the Christian name of Lady
Rebecca. A son was born to the couple when they were in England. The first name of
John Rolfe's son is unknown; however, it might have been John. "Lady Rebecca Rolfe,
while returning to the Colonies, became ill and died. Her husband reached the Colonies
with their infant son.

"Years later, another Virginia named James MOORE, who had been carried off to
Ohio by raiding Shawnee Indians that killed most of his family, returned to Tazewell
County, Virginia, where he married the great-granddaugher of Sir John and Lady
Rebecca Rolfe. The maiden name of James MOORE's wife, whose father was of German
descent, was Rebecca Walk.

"James MOORE had a large family, joined the Methodist Episcopal Church, and was a
highly respected citizen. One of James MOORE's sons, Isaac, had a son named Amos
who became a noted figure in his community.
"Amos MOORE, in the years before the Civil War, was violently opposed to
slavery and he conducted an underground railroad to Canada for Negro slaves. He had
been warned that his life was in danger, moved to Lawrence County, Ohio. With him
came his seven sons and one daughter. His wife was dead at the time he moved to
Ohio. The names of his eight children were Stanton, Isaac, Martin, Alfred (born in
1842), Enoch, William, Austin, and Jane. Jane married a Mr. Barber. Amos
MOORE's father, Isaac, also moved to Ohio with him."

Match is assumption. in 1851 at Lawrence, OH.⁵ He was The first trial held in the new court-house in Independence was that of the four negroes who were engaged in the fight of which an account is given below:

"An account of a fight or massacre that occurred with the Bartlett family, John Clements, William B. Hale and Currin C. Hale and four runaway negroes, on the grounds now occupied by the Fries Company, which fight or massacre took place on Monday morning, about 10 o'clock, August 11, 1851.

"William Bartlett and Elizabeth Paschel, his wife, moved to New River, Grayson county, Va., in 1834, with their two sons and one daughter-Samuel Bartlett, Alfred G. Bartlett and Matilda Bartlett, wife of Cyrus Wilcox.

"William B. Hale moved to the adjoining farm east on the river, with his son, Currin C. Hale, about 1838.

"John Clements moved to the mill west of Wm. Bartlett's, on the river, about 1847.

" In the Year 1849 two men came into the county of Grayson by the names of Bacon and Cook. These men claimed to be Methodist preachers from Ohio. They traveled over the county and preached. But it was soon known that they were "abolitionists" and that they were interfering with the negroes, talking with and advising them to run away and go to Ohio, and that they would help them get through.

"On Sunday night of the 10th of August, 1851, four negro men started for Ohio. Two of them, Simon and Lewis, belonged to John Reeves, and the other two, Jack and Henry, belonged to a man named Cox.

"These negroes got a canoe, armed themselves with butcher knives and scythe blades, and started down the river for Ohio. Their instruction from Bacon was to travel down the river at night and lay by in the daytime, and that he would meet them at the Kanawha Falls and take them across to Ohio. They reached the falls near the Clements' mills about daylight Monday morning, August 11, 1851, tied up their canoe and went up into a ravine in the woods and started a fire. The smoke was discovered by John Clements, who went into the woods and found the negroes in camp for the day.

"Mr. Clements sent Calvin Bobbitt for help to take the negroes. Samuel Bartlett, Alfred G. Bartlett, Cyrus Wilcox, William B. Hale, Cumin C. Hale and Leftrick Hill came, with guns and a bulldog, and demanded their surrender.

"At once two commenced the fight, the other two running for the river. Samuel Bartlett was struck with a scythe blade and his head cut open. John Clements was cut on the head. Alfred G. Bartlett was struck on the head, cut on the wrist, and his thumb nearly cut off in his efforts to keep off the blows.

"The fight was then between A. G. Bartlett, Cyrus Wilcox and the two stout negroes. Wilcox seized one of the negroes and threw him to the ground. Alfred shot at the other, but failed to hit him, and the negro ran to Wilcox and stuck the butcher knife through his neck, just missing the jugular vein. Bartlett struck the negro Simon across the back with his gun barrel, having broken the breech of his gun in the fight.

"In this severe and desperate struggle Bartlett and Wilcox so disabled these two negroes that they surrendered. The other two were pursued by W. B. and C. C. Hale. Several shots were fired at them without effect. Currin Hale struck at one with his gun barrel and bent it. Jack threw a rock and struck William Hale on the neck. The other did not attempt to fight, but ran into the river and was caught by the bulldog.

"Thus the bloody struggle ended for the day. Sam'l Bartlett lived about six hours. John Clements afterwards died in Nebraska of his wounds. Cyrus Wilcox recovered; also Win. Hale and Alfred Bartlett. Only two are now living who were in this bloody and dangerous fight Alfred Bartlett and Currin Hale. Hale lives in Nebraska. Bartlett remained at the old home until he sold to the Fries M'f'g Co., and now lives near-by. He has by his energy and enterprise reared a large and respectable family, and amid his affliction and disabled condition continues as one of Grayson county's best citizens.

"Two of the negroes left at the camp-Simon and Lewis revived, tied up their wounds and started again for Ohio, but after several days were captured in Bland county-one in a house stealing something to eat-the other in a coin field stealing corn. The other two-Jack and Henry-went back to their home. They were all brought to Independence and tried in court. Henry was released, as he did not fight. Simon, Lewis and Jack were condemned to hang, and were executed on Friday, Nov. 1, 1851, at Independence, Grayson Co., Va.

"After this massacre the county was in a state of excitement and men gathered from Old Town, Elk Creek, Knob Fork and other places to search for the man Bacon, who had caused the trouble and bloodshed, as he had told these negroes to fight their way through. Bacon was found at Amos Moore's, but before the men could catch him he ran to Iron Mountain and got away. If he had been caught he would doubtless have been hanged at once. Cook had disappeared before this time.

"The foregoing facts are known to many of us, but have not gone into history.

"We therefore desire these facts to be placed by the hands of Alfred Bartlett in the corner-stone of the church, to be laid at Fries on Nov. 21,1902, as this M. E. Church, South, is being built on the former Bartlett estate and on the ground where Sam'l Bartlett lived at the time of his being killed in the fight.

"Given under my hand, and by the assistance of Alfred G. Bartlett, an eye witness and actor in this distressing piece of history. Written on the 16th day of Nov., 1902.

The origins of the Semmes family of Maryland are not clear. I
rediscovered a passage written by Harry Wright Newman in his
introduction to The Maryland Semmes And Kindred Families (The Maryland
Historical Society Baltimore, 1956) about the origins of the family--


" The Semmes family of Southern Maryland is considered to be of Norman
origin with the name appearing in England after the Conquest in various
forms such as Sim, Sims, Simms, Syms, Simme, and the like. The
progenitor (Marmaduke) wrote his name as Semme and like wise his widow
(Fortune) when she signed her last will and testament. By the third
generation distinct differences in orthography occurred with the
descendants of Anthony Semmes, though not always, adopting the shorter
form of Simms and using it today, while the descendants of James, the
second Son, consistently used Semmes.

An English writer stated that the family appears to be of Scottish or
border origin and the blazonry of the family coat-armour indicates some
connection with Norway. In 1221 one Riccard de Syme was granted land at
Handboville, Normandy, by Philippe Augustus, and as Normandy was
conquered by the Norsemen or tribes from the region which is now
Norway, the Norman tradition fits into the historic pattern. In the
sixteenth century, however, the name was found among the county
families of Northamptonshire and Gloucestershire."


Of course, Harry doesn't say _which_ English writer and there's no
bibliography in the book.


I recently received a copy of SEMMES and Allied Families by Raphael T.
Semmes, 1918, 381pp. Photocopy; Flex. Vinyl Covers.


In it is a letter from Benedict Joseph Semmes of Memphis to his nephew.
Since this volume is not generally available, I thought I'd publish
the full-text hereŠ.and you can draw your own conclusions about his
telling of the family's origins.



Biloxi, Miss., February 19, 1895.



Dear Frank:



A few days since Malcolm [1] forwarded me your letter of 7th inst.,
[sic] with regard to the records of the Semmes family. I am sorry that
during the war many valuable papers were destroyed or disappeared, and
the old family Bible of my grandfather as well. I have my father's
Bible only. A most valuable paper, the deed from Lord Baltimore to the
first Joseph, [2] was destroyed by a bad companion of my lost brother
Raphael. [3] That boy, Bob Wilson, tore off the great leaden seal of
the "Lord Proprietor of Maryland" to make bullets of, and as my little
brother told us, also destroyed the "skin paper' as he called it, or
parchment. I have at home a deed to my father [4] from him for a
portion of the Effton Hills estate. [5] Three separate parcels are
conveyed in the deed, and one in particular called "Adams Choice,"
another "Evu's Delight," and both, when I was there in childhood, were
known by these names, and as the best tobacco lands in the county.


With regard to the order in which my father's brother and sisters were
born, I cannot remember accurately; they were all down in the Semmes
Bible lost in years past, with other relics, one of which was a piece
of the old Jersey prison ship in which my grandfather, Capt. Jenkins,
[6] was long a prisoner of the English. Clara [7] holds that the first
Joseph was English; I know better, for Judge Middleton Semmes, [8] the
Admiral's [9] brother, when a Judge of the Supreme Court of Maryland
(the Court of Appeals) told us in Georgetown that he came across an act
of the Provisional Council of that State, which he found in the old
archives at Annapolis while investigating some old case, naturalizing
Joseph Semmes from Normandy, in France, dated, I think, in 1664 or
1646; he could not hold land before that act. Two Normandy gentlemen
named Semmes, visited the Admiral at Cherbourg, before the fight with
the "Kearsage," [10] and claimed kinship, and said theirs was one of
the oldest families of Normandy and there was no .other of the same
name in France. He told us in Memphis after the war about this visit.
Another gentleman, whose middle name, Spanish fashion with Spanish
sirname [sic] attached to it, called upon him when in Cadiz, in
command of the ship "Sumpter," his first cruiser, he told the Admiral
that his grandfather was a French soldier from Normandy, who fell in
love with a Spanish lady, and after the war returned to Spain and
married her.

I remember an old lady, and a fine one at that, who had a pretty estate
in Maryland, which I have visited, and who was called by my father and
mother "Aunt Middleton." She was my father's own aunt and was of Semmes
blood. [11] The Admiral's brother, the Judge, was named Middleton.

You know, I suppose, that I have the deed of Lord Baltimore for "Effton
Hills" estate; it is not to our ancestor, for at that time he could not
hold real estate, but to another person, though really for him, which
accounts for the subsequent deed, of which I told you, made after the
naturalization, and was destroyed by that Wilson boy.


I used to know much more of the family history than I can now remember.
The later events of my stirring life seem to have covered up in my
memory many things of which I sometimes recall the incidents. The names
of my two great-uncles, Semmes, I can not, with certainty recall, who
were killed in the battle of Long Island and belonged to the "Maryland
Line." Their names are recorded at Annapolis and perhaps in Washington.
Should I recall anything useful I will write you.


I have been here since 1st December with my wife and youngest grand
child, LaValette, the son Maude [12] left last April a year ago. My
health was very wretched, in fact I was near death; I have improved
much, but I am still feeble and cannot get strength. The winter has
surpassed anything ever known on the Gulf and has retarded my
improvement. The houses here are not built for cold weather. Up to the
27th December we had flowers, tropical plants, all in bloom, but all
are killed, even the water cresses.


Give my kindest regards to your wife, who I hope some day to meet.
Your aunt joins me in love to you both.


Yours affectionately,

..

(Signed) B. J. SEMMES.


Your Aunt Jo is 66 today.

1. Joseph Malcolm Semmes, his son, b. 1852, m. Eleanor Wingfield
MARTIN


(1) Marmaduke SEMME Gent. (~1635-1692) & Fortune (1640-<<1701)

(2) James SEMMES (~1670-1727) & Mary Goodrick (1673-1746)

(3) James SEMMES Lieut.* (1713-1787) & Anne BARNES (-<<1744)

(3) James SEMMES Lieut.* (1713-1787) & Mary SIMPSON (-1787)

(1755-1833)

(6) Major Benedict Joseph SEMMES CSA (1823-1902) & Jorantha JORDAN

(7) Joseph Malcolm SEMMES (1852-) & Eleanor Wingfield MARTIN


2. The "first" Joseph Semmes. According to family oral history at
that time, the progenitor of the Semmes in Maryland was a Joseph. No
evidence, other than this reference, has been found to support this
theory. The description of the deed is compelling, however.


3. Raphael Semmes (1836-1853) was lost at sea from the S.S. "Antelope"
en route from San Francisco to New York City.


4. Raphael SEMMES (1786-1846) who married Mary Matilda JENKINS
(1800-1881)


5. "Effton Hills" came into the Semmes family in 1808 through the
Winter family. According to Newman, Admiral Raphael Semmes (1809-1877)
and Judge Samuel Middleton Semmes (1811-1867) were born at "Effton
Hills." Their father was Richard Thompson Semmes (1781-1823) who
married Catherine Middleton, widow of Captain William Winter of Effton
Hills in 1808. It is likely the deed of which he speaks contains the
name Winter. On July 17, 1822, Raphael Semmes (of Joseph and Henrietta
Thompson Semmes) conveyed to Alexander Gray, of Charles County,
"Effton's Hills" which he had purchased from Richard H. Winter.
(Newman, pps. 65-67)


6. Capt. Thomas Jenkins, son of William and Elizabeth Mitchell Jenkins.
The following is copied from the notice of his death printed in the
Port Tobacco Times, which was, and is yet, pasted in
the old family Bible of Henry Jenkins, son of Capt. Thos. Jenkins:


DEATH OF CAPT. THOMAS JENKINS


Died at his residence in Charles County, Md., on the 14th inst.,
Capt. Thomas Jenkins, aged 71. In early life he was devoted to the sea,
and during our Revolutionary struggle he had the misfortune to be
captured by the enemy, and lay nine months a prisoner at New York
aboard the memorable "Old Jersey." Here, after suffering all the
horrors of disease and want, he was sent on shore to die of a malignant
fever contracted on board the prison ship, but by the aid of a strong
constitution and the protecting hand of Providence was restored to
health and his friends. Several years after this he married and raised
a numerous family of children, six sons and two daughters. To the
characteristic bluntness and rough manner of a sailor he united the
most rigid principles of probity with the finest feelings of humanity.
Respected and esteemed by his neighbors, revered and beloved by his
children and numerous relations, he died lamented by all, but by none
more than the poor of his neighborhood, who can with sorrowful truth
say, "We have lost a friend." This is no panegyric, it is simply the
truth and known to be such by the whole circle of his friends.
(Semmes, p 296)



7. Clara Elizabeth Semmes, sister, (1830- aft 1895) m. William Bushby
FITZGERALD


8. Judge Samuel Middleton Semmes (1811-1875) m. Eleanor GUEST


9. Admiral Raphael Semmes (1809-1877) & Anne SPENCER (1819-1892)


10. The S.S. Kearsage was the ship which sunk Admiral Raphael Semmes'
S.S. Alabama off the coast of France. Semmes surrendered, but the
Kearsage sunk the ship nonetheless. Semmes captured more enemy
merchant ships than any other cruiser captain in maritime history.

     Thomas Hagen NOTES of PAT BISHOP OBRIST:

1. Thomas HAGAN was born in 1645 in County Tyrone, Ireland "Clare""Correct Measure"> before 21 Feb 1715/16 in "St. James," nearBryantown, Charles Co. MD.2
Surname spelled HAGAN, HAGOE - in Ireland; HAGON, and possibly HEAGON
-from Jessie Hagan states that hevisited the birthplace of HAGANS in County Tyrone, Ireland. ThomasHAGAN named his land with the names "Clare" and "Carrick Measure." InCo. Tyrone there are townlands called "Clare" and two miles away"Carrickmore." [carrick means large stone.]
Also in Tyrone there is memorial at the anciem HAGAN family lands inTullahouge,, which is near Dungarmon. It is just the top of a hill inthe middle of a farmer's field, ..."when I was there in 1992 it waslike something magical. There is a historical marker at the site thatsays that there was a ring fort on top of the hill that was thehistorical home of the O'Hagan family in the 1 lth Century."

Background- from "Clans and Families of Ireland," by John Grenham,[formerly a professional genealogist attached to the GenealogicalOffice and now a project manager with the Irish Genealogical Project]:
p. 168: O'HAGAN along with O'DOHERTY, O'DONNEL and others, is derivedfrom the Ui Neill, the powerful tribal grouping claiming descem fromNaill of the Nine Hostages, the fifth c. monarch supposedlyresponsible for kidnapping St. Patrick to Ireland. Within the Ui Neillthe two principal subgroups were the "Cineal Eoghain" and the "GineatConalll," claiming descem from two of the sons of Niall, Eoghan andConall resp. The O'NEILLS were the leading family of the "CinealEoghain," ruling the anciem territory of "Tir Eoghaln," comprising notonly the modern Co. Tyrone, but also large parts of Derry and Donegal....

Thomas HAGAN emigrated to Maryland. He arrived in the late summer of1662 as a servam of John MEEKES. ( Was Meekes Irish or English? It maybe important for searching the port of departure of the two whomigrated to America. Then also they may have come by way of Barbados.)

-from notes of Gladys Gerding, 300 N. 4th St., St. Louis, MO (314-241-2590)
"John MEEKES in open Court of Charles Co, MD declared Thomas Hagan afree ~nan, 12 Aug. 1662."
In 1670 he claimed land for the service he had performed. His name isfound in Liber 12, Folio 594 (Skordas, p. 200.) Because som~ne elsepaid for his transportation, Thomas had been bound to service for aset period of years, probably seven. Upon completing his service, hewas allowed to claim 50 acres of land. A warrant was then issued tothe surveyor directing him to lay out and survey the specifiedquantity of land for the applicant and return the certificate ofsurvey to the Secretary's office. The certificate named the person forwhom the survey was made, described the boundaries of the land andgave the total acreage of the tract. If the certificate was made outin proper form and there were no conflicting claims, a patera wasissued gaming the land described in the certificate to the applicant.The patera was dated, sealed with the great seal of the Province andsigned by the Governor, acting for Lord Baltimore in whose name theland was grained. "The Early Settlers of Maryland" by Gust Skordas,1995, Genealogical Publishing Company.

On 27 September 1680 Thomas obtained a land patera for 200 A in St.Mary's County, called "St. Jansen." On 11 May 1695 he had anotherpatera for 650 Acres called "Good Intern."

In a deposition of 1715 Thomas gave his age as "Seventy odd yeares"[Patems 3:235.]

At his death Thomas had acquired 1490 Acres, a considerable amoum ofproperty. He bequests: 300 A. "St. James,"; 15 A. plus another 60 A.bought of Wm. Boarman, to his wife, Mary and at her demise to son,William; 350 A. part of "Good Iment," to son, James. 200 A. pan of"Good Intern," also 65 A. bought of Wm. Boarman, to son, Ignatins. 250A.

He was married to Mary ?AISQUITH on 9 Jun 1670 in Sr Mary's Co, MD.3Mary ?AISQUITH was born about 1651 in
Maryland. She died about 4 Feb 1726/27 in "St. James" Charles Co, MD.4The spouse of Thomas HAGAN, Mary , may have been an AISQUITH. Butother surnames, ie. MUDD, are speculated. No proof for any of thesurnames has been found.

NOTES of JOHN HAGAN and OTHERS:
General: The surname was HAGOE in Ireland, but changed to HAGAN whenthey came to America. He was born in County Clare, Province ofMunster. He gave his age in a deposition of 1715 as "Seventy oddyears"(Patents 3:225). He arrived in MD. in the late summer of 1662 asa servent of John Meekes. He may have come by way of Barbados. Thefirst record concerning him was an oath he took in the Oct Court ofCharles Co.,MD. to the effect that a consignment of sugar from freightof John Meekes out of Barbados into VA. has been delivered to acertain resident of MD. (MD Archives,LIII,a400). John Meekes in opencourt of Charles Co., MD. declared Thomas Hagan of Charles Co., MD. afree man, 12 Aug 1662 (MD> Archives,LIII,a400-401). ( Info from a bookfound in Bardstown, KY., County Library: Thomas Hagan of Charles Co.,MD. and his decendent in Central KY. to about 1850). See blue BKA. Hiswill found in MD. Calendar of Wills, Vol. IV, 1713 to 1726, compiledby Jane Baldwin, page 66. Wife Mary; sons James, ignatius, Thomas,daughters; Mary Baggott, Sarah Edelin, Charity Green, Ann Smith &Eliza Clarkson. Test: Wm. Boarman Jr., Thomas Dison, Jno. Gates. Willbook, 14, p213.

(Note added by Eugene W. Stark, 23 sep 1996) I have received acommunication from Jessie Hagan, Staff Genealogist, NSSAR, expressingconcern about the certainty of the assertions that Thomas Hagan wasmarried to Mary Boarman and was from County Clare. According to J. H.,based on 12 years of research of this line, these assertions arespeculative and have not been proved at this time.

(Note added by John C. Hagan, 10 Aug 1997) Further correspodence withJessie Hagan revealed more info. Jessie Hagan wrote: "It is mostlikely that he was from County Tyrone near the Townland of Clare. Thistoo is speculation, but a check of Counties shows an abundance ofHagans in Tyrone in that time period, and almost none in County Clare.O'Hagan is very much associated with County Tyrone and the O'Neillclan. I visited Tullahougue in Co. Tyrone about 4 years ago. I thinkthe Co. Clare speculation came into being because he named a piece ofproperty Clare. He also named a piece of property Carrick Measure. InCounty Tyrone, there is a Townland near Cookstown called Clare. About4 miles away is a Townland called Carrickmore. All of this is lessthan 10 minutes from Tullahougue which is refered to by a historicalmarker as the Ancestral home of the O'Hagan family in the 11thcentury. Someone named Tim Lively has submitted that Thomas Hagan wasmarried to Mary Alsquith. What is most interesting about his info isthat he has a marriage date. I have tried to locate this person forconfirmation."

Lib WBY.213 Annapolis, MD. Thomas Hagan devises to wife Mary...homeplantation "St. James" 300 acres Charles Co.,MD....also land hepurchased from Major Boarman...to sons James & Ignatius, "Good Intent"nr Zachia Swamp, 550 acres...to daughter Mary Baggott 100 acres of"Good Intent"...son Thomas, 150 acres "Correct Measure" in St. Mary'sCo.,MD....to daus Sarah Edelin, Charity Green,Ann Smith & ElizabethClarkson...Wifes share to go to son William Hagan.(p216 Bowie book)

Note from J.J. Kenny: MacLysaght says..'(O)HAGAN..it is fairly wellestablished that this name was originally O'hOgain (from young). It isthat of important Ulster Sept. the leading family was Tullahogue,O'haodhagain, also anglicized O'HAGAN, is said to be a distinct Septof Oriel but owing to proximity of Counties Tyronr and Armagh, theyare now indistinguishable.
Also, in the 1890 surname study by Matheson, there were 69 HAGANbirths, of which 49 were in Ulster Province. The counties where thebirths principally occured were Antrim, Tyrone and Armagh.

Note from David Hagan: Thomas came to maryland as a single man in1662. He was married to Mary Asquith? in St. Marys Co., MD. MaryAsquith? died before 4 feb 1725/26 in Charles Co., MD.

Notes of Charles & Katherine Mudd:

Thomas Hagan is mentioned inWilliam Boarman's will. He was deeded theestate "Lanterman". William Boarman (son of Major William) was awitness to the will of Thomas Hagan/Hagoe (14:213) who mentions landhe bought from Major William Boarman and his son. A deed recordedbetween 1734 and 1743 shows John Baptist Boarman conveying theremainder of "Lanterman" to Robert Edelen, carpenter, for 30 poundssterling and 500 pounds tobacco. -Donnelly, "Major Wm. Boarman" "Thereis a lot of bad info on Thomas Hagan out there. So far, I have seenthree different women attributed as being Mary, his wife [one of whichis Mary Mudd, but would place as contemporary of Thomas Mudd immigrantor daughter, per "Candace M. Wagner" who cited Nancy Leake Flack ]. Ihave been working the line for about 15 years now, and I have neverseen one bit of credible evidence as to who Mary was. There is alsoinfo out there that Thomas was from County Clare. I think this was avery early misconception due to the fact that Thomas had a piece ofproperty that he named Clare. The best guess is that Thomas was fromCounty Tyrone in the area around Cookstown. There is a small (so smallits not even marked in any way) townland about 5 miles from Cookstowncalled Clare. About 2 miles away is another townland calledCarrickmore. Thomas also had a piece of property called Carrickmeasure. Both of these townlands are within 3 or 4 miles ofTullahouge. Tullahouge is the site of an ancient ring fort that nowsits in the middle of a farmers field and is preserved as a historicsite. At the site is a historical marker which states that Tullahougewas the ancient home of the O'Hagan family in the eleventh century.Mind you, this too is just a guess, but there were almost no Hagans inCounty Clare in the 1600's Thomas came into Maryland in 1662 as theindentured servant of John Meeks, a doctor from London. They came byway of Barbados. The two year indenture which survives on Thomas Haganwas declared void because it was illegal for a master to covenant withhis servant for any additional service. In those days most indentureswere for a period of 7 years. If this is true, Thomas' indenture wouldhave started around 1755 or when he was 10 years old." Jessie Hagan10-6-98 "Now for some Irish history. Around 1740 - 1745, Cromwell cameto Irland to put down yet another ebellion by the Irish. It seems thatthere was a rebellion every 20 to 40 years in Ireland. After defeatingthe Irish, Cromwell was determined not to have to repeat the war inanother 20 years when the younger Irish grew up. Immediately after thewar and for the next few years Cromwell and the British rounded up thechildren of the trouble makers and shipped them off as indenturesservants so that they would not be able to lead a new rebellion. Sincethe Hagan's were very closely allied with the O'Niell clan and HughO'Neill who had led the rebellion, it is probable that this could bewhat happened to Thomas Hagan. This is signified by the Bloody RedHand (of Hugh O'Niell) that appears on the O'Hagan and many other coatof arms." Id.
