CHAPTER 7
THE RAMSEY FAMILY OF
VIRGINIA
AND COMANCHE COUNTY, TEXAS
FOURTH GENERATION (coordinated with the
Nathan Franklin Carson family)
1145 Thomas F. RAMSEY was born on 10 April, 1734
and died in 1790 in Pittsylvania County, Virginia. His birthplace is not
known for certain, with one source giving Scotland, and another that he was
probably born in Augusta County, Virginia. The log cabin in which he supposedly
was born is in Pennsylvania today, as Augusta County extended into Pennsylvania
at the time of his birth. A family legend has it that Thomas and his two
brothers, James and John, rode out of Augusta County in search of their destiny
and fortune. Records show that Thomas and John, circa 1751, bought land
close to Sydorsville on Chestnut Creek. In 1763, Thomas bought 200 acres
from a John Richardson, on Poplar B ranch, near Snow Creek and Pigg River. He was married to
(1146) Frances (Unknown) RAMSEY and they lived in Pittsylvania County,
Virginia, where they raised thirteen children. She was born on 6 June, 1740 in
Virginia, and died on 6 April, 1806 in Pittsylvania County, Virginia.
Thomas received a patent for 328 acres of land on Chestnut Creek in Pittsylvania
County on 3 Aug., 1771. A census of Pittsylvania County, Virginia, taken
in 1782 shows Thomas heading a household of twelve "white persons",
one dwelling, and three other buildings. A tax list prepared in 1787 in
Pittsylvania County shows that their household included two white males above
age 16 but under age 21, four horses, and eleven cattle. Thomas made his
will on 26 April, 1790 (his name was misspelled as "Ramsbe"), and an
inventory of his estate was made 29 Oct., 1790.
Reference 2 (see end of the chapter) includes a sketch of the stone house built
by Thomas on his property in Pittsylvania County, Virginia. The house
stood for about 140 years from about 1763 to around 1900. The rocks for
the old house were hauled from a quarry on the farm by horse. The blasting
marks are still visible at the Old White Rock quarry. Someone
inadvertently three a cherry seed out the door, it sprouted at the back of the
house, and grew into a tree. Years later, it began to crack the walls of
the house. At that point, the Ramseys moved out, and the bats move
in. Thomas purchased the land 15 July, 1763 from a John Richardson, a
blacksmith. Richardson may have started the house foundation before Thomas
purchased the land, but Thomas built the house. It was located on Poplar
Branch near Stone Creek and the Pigg River.
