1.  JACOB1 VOILS was born Abt. 1720 in Wales, and died Unknown.

 

Notes for JACOB VOILS:

Per Ervin D. Voyles, 1000 Gilchrest Dr, Pittsburgh, PA  15235:  Jacob and his four sons came from Danbighshire, Wales to Charleston, South Carolina about 1759.  William was the oldest, born in 1745, Thomas born 1760, James and John were twins born 1755.  There has been no information on their Mother; it is presumed she died before they left Wales.

 

Jacob was very poor and went in debt for their passage to Amerca, so he hired William age 14 out as a deckhand for four years to pay off this debt.  It is not known where the ship sailed the four years but it is believe that it made several trips from Wales to this country.  On the return trips to Wales, William would stay with his Uncle David who lived in Hereforshire.  After about three years William induced his Uncle David to come to America and he settled in Old Mecklenburg County now Cabarrus south of Concord. 

 

It is believed that Jacob lived with his son John near Greenville, South Carolina.

Generation No. 2

 

2.  WILLIAM2 VOILS (JACOB1) was born 1745 in Wales, and died January 1798 in Cabarrus County, North Carolina (Source: Ervin D. Voyles Information.).  He married HANNAH RHODECIA BUNDI 1772.  She was born in Italy, and died 1805 in Cabarrus County, North Carolina (Source: Ervin D. Voyles Information.).

 

Notes for WILLIAM VOILS:

William had to pay for the passage to America for his family by being bound to the ship's captain to work out the indebitness for their trip.  One report says William was 14 years old at the time.  He resented having the burden of paying so much of the cost of the trip, supposedly four years of his time.  When he was finally released he did not have close association with the family.  He left for Cabarrus County, NC.

 

William was a soldier in the Revolutionary War, enlisted in May, 1776.  He had a long and interesting service.  Mary Kay and James Kay of Pekin, IN held Daughter of American Revolution and Son of American Revolution memberships on his record.  Captured during the battle of Camden but he escaped from the British.  William served under General Horatio Gates.  He also fought in the battles at Cow Pens and Kings Mountain plus other battles.  William served under General Francis Marion "Swamp Fox".  William was paid for his service in the War by giving him a grant of land in North Carolina.  this frontier was in constant danger of Indians.

 

Their log house was constructed so they could shoot from above.  The Indians drove off their cattle and William and the older boys went in search of them.  They were found in 2 or 3 days.  The ones left at home were in constant terror, especially at night.  Indians surrounded the house one time and they had to board up the windows.

 

After William died the younger children remained on the farm with their mother. They worked very hard raising cattle and loading them on flatboats to ship down the Yadkin River to sell in Charleston, South Carolina, 300 miles away.

 

Information from Ervin D. Voyles, 1000 Gilchrest Dr, Pittsburgh, PA  15235:

Jacob was very poor and went in debt for their passage to America, so he hired William age 14 out as a deckhand for four years but it is believed that it made several trips from Wales to this county.  ON the return trips to Wales, William would stay with his Uncle David who lived in Herefordshire.  After about three years William induced his Uncle David to come to America and he settled in Old Mecklenburg County now Cabarrus south of Concord.  About a year later when William finally had worked out the debt of his father he returned briefly to South Carolina.  Not liking the treatment of being compelled to work four years as a deckhand he left South Carolina and came to North Carolina to live with Uncle David. 

 

  William enlisted in the 1st Battalion of the North Carolina Militia, July 4, 1776. This was one of the North Carolina units that fought with the American Revolution forces.  He reenlisted in 1779.  The Archives at Raleigh has two of his pay vouchers where he was paid in the Salisbury District, May 1782, nine pounds four shillings and in May, 1783, nine pounds two shillings both for Military service.  He probably was enlisted until the end of the Revolutionary War.  It must be remembered that the members of the Militia would fight when needed and return home  He was one of Marion's men.  General George C. Marion was known in the war as the Swamp Fox.  He and his small band of men aided the Revolutionary forces to win many of their battles.  He also fought with General Gates and Green.  He was captured in the battle of Camden by the British, which General Gates lost but he escaped.  He was in the battles of Kings Mountain, Cowpens, Chowan and others.

 

  During his enlistment he entered on March 6, 1779 a land grant on the West side of the Big Coldwater Creek 150 acres in Old Mecklenburg County.  It was not granted until after the close of the war until August 1887.  No doubt he and Hannah lived before he enlisted in the Militia on this land.  The Coldwater Baptist Church is located on or near this land grant.  He entered the second grant for another tract May 22, 1794 for 150 acres. 

 

 ________ and joined Big Coldwater Creek on the East side and his other tract on the West side.  Later he entered a grant for 15 acres between Big and Little Coldwater Creek.  The large tract of land was joined on the North side by Nicholas Corzine and John Shaver, the West side Joshua Hadley or Headley and Walter Smiley and on the South by John Chamberlain another member of the Militia and William's trusted friend.  He and Hannah were early members of the Coldwater Baptist Church.  It is known that some or perhaps all the above land owners were members too.  William's brother James had a land grant just across Big Coldwater Creek, also James McGran the father of William who sold the land to the Church.

 

 On this land on Big Coldwater Creek, William, Hannah and their family raised cotton and shipped it on flat boat down the creeks and rivers to Charleston, South Carolina.  This was their main source of income to support the family until after William and Hannah's death.

 

 William was appointed by the Cabarrus County Court to help lay out a road from the Courthouse to Weddington Ford on the Rocky River, this is believed to be on or near the present Route 601, that is thought to run near his land.

 

 The Court records show that in January 18, 1798, the last will and testament of William Voils was proven by Nicholas Corzine and John Weylie and letter of testament to his brother Thomas and his friend John Chamberlain.  This showed he died in January 1798.  The records show his estate was fully settled January, 1800.  Hannah's death occurred in 1805, supposedly she died of a wasp sting.  Her estate was settled by her son Rolin, April, 1807.  Both William and Hannah were buried on their land on Big Coldwater Creek, there has been a search but unable to find their graves, probably they have been destroyed over the period of time, this is why the monument has been placed in their memory.

 

 Their children raised cotton for a while after Hannah's death, then some of the young children were not satisfied and petitioned the court to divide the land among them.  The Cabarrus County records show that this was done January 24, 1811 and guardians were appointed for the minor heirs.  It has been said after the division of this land, it became difficult to make a living raising cotton and in desperation they started leaving North Carolina thru Kentucky to Indiana then a territory.  By the end of 1813 all had left North Carolina.

Marriage Notes for Linzy Voyles and Clarissa Bishop:

From 1913 Salem, Washington Co., IN newspaper:  Married Sixty-Four Years, Mr. and Mrs. Linzy Voyles.

  Nations rise and fall generations come and go.  Mr. and Mrs. Linzy Voyles whose likeness appears above, have traveled together sixty-four years.  On the banks of BIg Blue River, ten miles south of Salem, in Howard township.  Mr. Voyles was born, January 16, 1822 and Mrs. Voyles, who was Clarressie Bishop, was born eight years later, February 2, 1830.  They were united in marriage November 25, 1849 by Squire John Mitchell.

  An interesting story of their marriage is told by them.  it seems that the time selected by them was an unusually good night for matrimony.  Mr. Voyles had neglected to engage anyone to perform the ceremony, thinking that would be an easy matter.  But he found it far from that.  The first one he called on was Quire Mitchell and he was informed that he was engaged to officiate at the marriage of Peter Colglazier.  He next went to see a minister by the name of Tommy Green and he too was engaged to marry a couple.  He went for the third party and he was engaged.  Mr. Voyles was determined not to be outdone, so at a late hour he called on Squire Mitchell and found he had retired for his night's repose.  He explained the cirumstances to Mr. Mitchell and that all arrangements were made and he wanted the ceremony pronounced that night.  Mr. Mitchell seemed pleased with the young man's remarks and told him if he could find his horse be would go.  The horse was soon found and near midnight they arrived at the bride's home and in the dim light of an oil lamp, they were pronounced man and wife.

  They still have the lamp that furnished the light on that memorable occasion.  It is three inches square and two inches deep with a lid that opens and closes like a teakettle.  There is also a spout similar to a teackettle.  A hook was attached to the lamp so it could be hung to a wooden peg in the wall.  Lard oil and tallow was used, kerosene being unheard of at that time.  This sort of lamp was the only kind used by them for many years after their marriage.  Mrs. Voyles remarked that she "had spun, wove, knit and sewed by this light while Mr. Voyles had hammered away making and mending shoed during the winter months.

  They have reared to manhood and womanhood a family of fourteen children.  For many years Mrs. Voyles spun and wove the cloth, cut and made the suits and garments for the entire family.  She even made the thread that she sewed the garments with from flax.

  It was the fifth of April the following spring when they went to housekeeping where they now live.  At that time it was a log house with a stick chimney and puncheon floor.  The house was built by Mr. Voyles, probably 70 years ago and

__________ the New Albany and Vincennes Turnpike was constructed.  Mrs. Voyles said when they went to housekeeping the following furniture was all they had:  three chairs, one pot, one frying pan and an oven.  They had no table or bed, so a bed was made by boring holes in the wall and putting in sticks, then a post was placed under the outer end and poles layed on them, over which the bed clothes were spread and a very comfortable bed was the result.  Spoons and forks were made of wood and old North Carolina gourds were used for water vessels.  Thus a home was set up and if you would visit there today you would find an angelic mother, grand and great-grandmother, a faithful father, grand and great-grandfather.

  Mr. and Mrs. Voyles have lived in the neighborhood where they now live all their lives.  Mr. Voyles was Mrs. Voyles' first beaux and they have been sweethearts ever since.  They have nine living children, forty grandchildren and forty-two great grandchildren.

  Mr. Voyles informed the writer that he wore a tow grown until he was twelve years old and not being much on fashions still clings to old style clothes and as you will notice in the picture is still wearing "barn-door" pants.  He was never more than three miles from home until he was over fifteen years of age.  At the age of sixteen he made his first trip to Salem and on a very unpleasant mission.  He came with his father and had two teeth extracted, Dr. Newland, then one of the leading physicians of this place doing the work for him.

  Mrs. Voyles wore home spun dresses nearly all her life.  The first calico dress she had was purchased of Charley Green who conducted a store at Halo.  It cost 18 cents a yard and she paid for it by exchanging tow cloth she had made.  Samuel Green now lives where the store was.

  Great changes have taken place since Mr. Voyles was a young man.  Then wheat was cut with a sickle and threshed out with a flail and by the way Mr. Voyles has one of the old flails he used years ago.  The ground hog thresher finally came into use and Mr. Voyles run one for four years.  He also run a distillery for the same length of time.

  His ancestors on one side were Dutch and Irish and on the other Welch and Italian.  The original Voyles came to this country from Wales and his father immigrated to Indiana from North Carolina and Mrs. Voyles parents came from South Carolina.

  The first school house of his remembrance was built on the Levi Elliott farm and was a log building 16x16 feet with a fire place in one side.  On one side of the room a log was cut out and the space covered with greased paper to furnish light.  A poplar log was split into and was supported by pegs driven in the wall, this was the writing desk.  Seats were made from split timbers.  One of the games played at school those days was "long tail cat."   The present generation will no doubt wonder how the game was played.

  The place called Halo was named from the manner in which Mr. Voyles would call when he would ride up to a house.  It is customary to say hello, but he would yell, "Halo!"  Hence the name of a former postoffice of this county.

  Mrs. Voyles has used tobacco since she was fourteen years of age.  Whe the writer and Earl Colglazier visited them a few days ago, she was using "long green" and Earl gave her some "honest twist," but she preferred the old kind.  Mr. Voyles was out on the farm where his grandson was sowing oats.

  During Mr. Voyles' sojourn of ninety-two years here he has rode on a train twice;  once during the civil war, when he went to Louisville, and the second time when A. P. Willard was governor of Indiana, he was called to Indianpolis on a trial.  Mrs. Voyles has never seen inside of a train.

  We stated once before that Mr. V. made his first trip to Salem when he was 16 years of age.  He come on horseback.  At the age of 91 he came in the same manner, it being 75 years from the ____ _____ the first trip.  He is preparing for another ride and is overhauling his saddle and putting on a new sheepskin seat.

  As we view the lives of this aged couple, a volume could be written that would be interesting to the present and future generations.  We end this sketch.

Notes for DAVID VOYLES:

Farmer.

 

David was the first to come to IN in the Voyles family, 1813.

 

Jasper Voyles, age 87 in 1967 owned David's Farm.

 

November 2, 1814 the family began the trip to IN Territory, arriving on Blue River December 10, 1814.  The following Sunday he and a number of other settlers went through the woods hunting a spring and found one where David settled and lived until he died.  This was in Section 36.  On Monday he began preparing logs for a house (14 feet by 16 feet).  The end of that day he had about 1/2 of the logs he would need.  He decided the hardships were too much and started to go back but was persuaded not too by one of his father's old mess maids from the war which he was spending the night with.  Next day he finished the logs and with help from neighbors he built his house.  He moved his family in with no roof or door.

 

A granddaughter of David's is a Mrs. Hillgrass.  I do not know who this lady is.
