Andrew Davidson’s Family Killed http://www.rootsweb.com/~varussel/indian/90.html
By Emory L. Hamilton
From the unpublished manuscript, Indian Atrocities Along the Clinch, Powell and Holston Rivers,
pages 207-209.
On August 23, 1786, the court of Montgomery Co., VA, appointed George Peery, a Captain of militia to
replace Captain James Moore who had been killed by the Indians on July 14, 1786. At the same
time Joseph Davidson was appointed a Lieutenant in the same company and Andrew Davidson was
appointed Ensign.
Pendleton, History of Tazewell County, records the following story of the massacre of the Andrew
Davidson family:
In the spring of 1791, Andrew Davidson was living at the head spring of East River, about a half
mile below the eastern limits of the city of Bluefield, West Virginia. In addition to himself,
his family consisted of his wife Rebecca, his three small children, two girls and a boy, and a
“bound” boy and girl named Broomfield. The bound children were very young, between seven and ten
years old, and were more in the nature of proteges than servants. Mrs. Davidson was a
granddaughter of James Burk from whom Burk’s Garden received its name. Mr. Davidson had gone on
a business trip to Smithfield, formerly Draper’s Meadows and now Blacksburg, Virginia. It was
the sugar making season, and a few days after her husbands departure for Smithfield, Mrs.
Davidson was busily occupied gathering sugar water from sugar trees close to the house. While
she was thus engaged, several Indians, who could speak English, came upon the scene. They told
her that she and her children must go with them to their towns in Ohio. She was in a delicate
condition, and unfit to undertake the long and fatiguing trip she was required to make.
The Indians went into the house and took such plunder as they wished to carry away, set fire to
the cabin, and began their homeward journey with their six prisoners. When they arrived at a
point near where Logan Courthouse, West Virginia, is located, Mrs. Davidson gave birth to a
child. After allowing the mother a rest of two hours, the march to Ohio resumed. The birth of
the child must have been premature, as it was drowned next day by the Indians on account of its
feeble condition.
Mrs. Davidson and the captive children were treated with such leniency while they were making
the journey, that she became hopeful they would be kindly treated after their arrival at the
Indian towns. In this, however, she was sadly disappointed. Soon after their arrival at their
towns, the Indians tied the two daughters of Mrs. Davidson to trees, and shot them to death in
the presence of their mother. Her son was given to an old squaw for adoption. While crossing a
river the old squaw upset her canoe, and the boy, who was with her, was drowned. What became of
the Broomfield children was never known, and it is possible they shared the same fate of the
girls who were shot.
Mrs. Davidson was sold to a Frenchman, in Canada, in whose family she remained a servant until
she was found and rescued by her husband in the fall of 1794. Two years after her capture Mr.
Davidson made an unsuccessful trip to the Shawnee towns in search of his wife. On his second
trip in 1794, he received information from an old Indian as to her whereabouts, and was guided
by the Indians to Canada. He stopped one day at a farm house to get dinner, and what followed is
thus related by Dr. Bickley: (1)
“When he got into the Canada settlement, he stopped at the house of a wealthy French farmer, to
get a meals victuals, and to inquire the way to some place where he had heard she was. He
noticed a woman passing him, as he entered the house, but merely bowed to her and went in.
Asking for dinner, he seated himself, and was, perhaps, running over in his mind, the chances of
finding his wife, when again the woman entered. She laid down her wood, and looked at the
stranger steadily for a moment, when she turned to her mistress and said: ‘I know that man!’
‘Well, who is he?,’ said the French lady.
‘It is my husband!. Andrew Davidson, I am your wife!’
Mr. Davidson could scarcely believe his senses. When he last saw her, she was a fine, healthy looking woman;
her hair was black as coal, but now her head was gray, and she looked many years older than she
should have looked. Yet it was her, though he declared nothing but her voice seemed to say she
was Rebecca Davdison. Soon the French gentleman returned, and being a humane man, gave up
Rebecca to her husband, also a considerable sum of money, and next morning sent them on their
way rejoicing. The happily reunited husband and wife returned as quickly as possible to the
vicinity of their former home, and settled at the mouth of Abb’s Valley on a farm which was
owned some ten years ago (1910) by A. C. Davidson. They were so fortunate as to have and raise
another family of children, and a number of their descendants are now living in Tazewell County,
Virginia, and Mercer County, West Virginia.

According to court records Joseph went to live with George when he was “almost a child”. We know
Joseph was born in VA ( probably Tazwell Co.) in 1802. We believe they had a sister Jane, who
was born in 1799, who also was raised by George. In 1806 George married Elizabeth Cartmill in
Tazwell Co. The next year they moved to Kanawha Co. Va (now WV). The next known residence is
Lawrence Co. KY around 1820. Jane married Lewis Russell in Lawrence Co. KY. Joseph married Nancy
Shannon Burgess in Lawrence Co. KY.

My great grandfather was Jesse Franklin davidson
Would you like to post Luther’s family information? Wife & children?
My grandfather was Luther Hufford Davidson, Sr.
Hi! Luther was my grandmother’s brother.
very impressive and I can definitely use this to fill in some blanks….
Rhonda [Steele] Davidson is Leroy Steele’s sister who I am trying to connect to my Steele Family in Tuscarawas Co.,Ohio. Leroy was B. 1846 Tazewell Co.,VA. D. in Kootenia,Idaho in 1908. He married Callie Newman and they had three children.
John Preston Martin Davidson was my great great grandfather. He had a son Andrew Jackson Davidson, who was raised by JPM’s brother Samuel P. Davidson and Laura May Davidson. I am the granddaughter of Preston Marshall Davidson, born in 1917, died 2007.
My great great great grandmother was Elizabeth Davidson Sansom daughter of William Davidson and granddaughter of John Goolman. She and her sister Margaret ‘Peggy’ Davidson Milam moved to what is now Mingo County, WV and Pike County, Kentucky with their husbands John Riley Sansom, Sr and James Milam. I have information on Elizabeth ‘Betty’ Davidson Sansom and John Sansom. Contact me if I can be of help.
Brenda: I am seeking proof that Margaret Peggy is daughter of William and gdaughter of John Goolman. Can you help?
Another descendant of them.
Judy
I have no proof other than a file that another distant relative gave me listing Margaret Ron about 1765 in Tazewell County.
Judy, I do have proof. I found James Milam and Peggy listed in a Logan County census. Prior coming across that information, I found on the Milam family website where James Milam married Margaret ‘Peggy’ Davidson. It has been a long time since I found that information, but I should be able to find it in my genealogy papers. I’ll take a look. I think Margaret and Elizabeth came to the Logan, WV (VA) and Pike County, KY area around the same time. I’ll get back to you.
I love your website.
Thanks for the reply. DAR is rejecting my supplemental for lack of proof they will accept. I have marriage record, but need proof of Peggy’s parents like legal documents, etc. I know we are right and recently found Peggy traveled with her sister Elizabeth, who married John Sansom and now am searching for any docs with the two sisters. I have Logan 1830 census-no help, and later Pike Co, KY. I will keep searching for the proof. Thanks again for the reply.
Judy, I have the marriage licenses for both Margaret and Elizabeth? Elizabeth Davidson and John Sansom’s license is signed by John SANSOM and William Davidson. Married in 1797 in Montgomery County, VA. Margaret and James Milam were married in 1809 in Tazewll, County, VA.
My email address is bjprqa@hotmail.com if you want to email me.
How do you go about applying for DAR membership? I think I would like to apply.
Best wishes on your search and I will keep looking as well.
My Grandparents were Hugh Estel, and Gladys Davidson from Bluefield, WV. My Father was Hugh Elmer Davidson.
Outstanding.
I am looking for a picture of Mary Matilda Davidson (1832-1901) w/o 1st wife of Col. A. J. May who was born in Tazewell County VA, moved to Floyd County KY at age of 2 (d/o of Samuel Patton Davidson and Judith Lackey). Lots of pictures of the Colonel, but can’t find any of her!
Hi Ann. Wish I could help but I haven’t seen a picture of her.
My Great Grand Parents were Charles D. and Sarah L. (Bailey) Davidson of Bluefield WV.
Thanks for commenting Brent. I don’t have them in my tree. Who was Charles’s father?
