CHAPTER VIII
PRESTON SOLDIERS
COLONIAL AND INDIAN WARS
Prior to the close of the Revolution the inhabitants of Preston were very few indeed. and Indian hostility would naturally have kept those already here from taking part in the military operations on the coast. They had enough to do in defending their homes from the savage allies of the British. After that war the peopling of the county began in good earnest, and as in the case of the peopling of the Northwestern states after the close of the civil war, there was a heavy sprinkling of returned soldiers among the pioneer immigrants. The actual number was much larger than it is now practicable to determine.
Some of them were soldiers of the French and Indian War, though of such only the names of Aaron Royse and Uriah Fawcett have come down to us.
The following pioneers served in the Revolution or in the wars with the Indians in Ohio: Robert Beatty, Eliphalet Chidester, Jacob Feather, Andrew Johnson, John Kelley, Daniel Martin, Joseph Mathew. James McCollum, Daniel McCollum, Robert McMillen, Abner Mes- senger, William Michael, John D. Orr, Jacob Wolfe,, George Wolfe. To these must be added William Hebb, who deserted from the British army and joined the American. Ambrose Lipscomb was a British soldier, but whether he likewise took the American side we do not certainly know.
WAR OF 1812.
The commands here represented are those of Capt. Leonard Cupp, Capt. Matthias McCowan, Capt. Samuel Kennedy, and Lieut. Christian Conn. These commands are distinguished by the numerals, 1, 2, 3, 4. This list gives the separate enlistments but not the net number of in- dividuals represented. In the second column is given the rank of the soldier, and in the third is given the command to which he belonged.
