Dear Cousin:
Am enclosing your copy of family book.
After you have had opportunity to read it shall be
glad if you will let us know in accompanying envelope of any
errors or omissions which you find so that they may be corrected
in the revised edition.
Shall also appreciate it if you will notify from
time to time of subsequent births, deaths or marriages in your
branch of the line.
Regret that no further copies of the hook are avail-
able for general distribution as only enough were printed to
supply those whose post office address we had.

HUMAN Psol cssss 2 -
The farmers of Iowa have doubtless spent ons hundred times
as much energy on keeping the pedigrees of their live stock
straight as the pedigrees of their own families. There has been
a tendency for many of us to think that under our democratic
system of government there is a feeling of false pride involved
in any effort to keep up the family history. And of course there
has been a lot of foolish energy expended by some people in an
effort to become linked up with such organizations as the
Daughters of the Revolution and the Colonial Dames.
Family histories, properly kept, mean a lot even to those
members of the family who pretend to despise such things. We
are talking now about a family record such as almost anyone can
start. The first thing to do is to put down the names of the
father and mother, together with the dates and places of the
birth and marriage, and the names of the children. Then go back
and sse if you can do the same thing for each of the four grand-
parents. In addition, secure e brief history of the life of
oach, the different places where they lived, the occupation of tha
mon, etc. In many cases, it will also be possible to list at
least a few of the eight great-grandparents. There is not much
reason in going back of this. In every case, so far as possible,
find out a little something about the physical and mental charac~
tcristics. Incidentally, this may tell you a little sonethlng
about the diseases and weaknesses to which the family is peculiar-
ly susceptible.
Usually there is no financial gain whatsoever in this kind
Of thing, altho occasionally there are families of people who
keep records of this sort who find themselves in line for bequests
which they would not otherwise have secured. The really important
results are not financial at all.~ The children become better so-
quainted with the people from whom they sprang, and thus become
possessed of a feeling of responsibility and a more accurate idea
ss to their place in the world, than would otherwise be possible.
In doing this kind of work, it ls important to get at it as
soon as possible, for the reason that the nembers of the family
who can furnish the best information are usually well along in
years, and when they die, the information they can furnish is
often totally lost. From a purely cultural point of view, we do
not know of any way in which time can be more profitably span#
during winter evenings than working up a family book of this sort.
It may involve considerable letter writing to distant members of
the family, but that should be worth while even tho there is no
such thing as a family book involved. While we believe that by
far the greatest emphasis should be laid on getting complete in-
formation concerning the parents, grandparents, and possibly
great-grandparents, it is occasionally interesting to those who
are historically minded to follow the thing back further, and in
that case, those of our readers who are interested in this sort of
thing will be glad to know that in the Historical Idbrary, at Des
Moines, there ls one of the best collections of genealogical
reference works to be found anywhere in 'l=h° United 555595-

is the center of a noted iron producing and manufactu-
ring district of Germany and is the site of present Krup gun works.
At Musen is situated one of the famous iron mines of the empire.
It was worked as early as 1505 and practically all the inhabitants
are employed in industries in connection with the mines to this
day. John George Kemper was a mechanic, a blacksmith, and is
thought to have had charge of the tools about the mine. He
possessed a freehold and was an elder in the Reformed Church.

John Kemper was the emigrant. He Was born at Musen, Germany,
and, following his father's profession, was a skilled mechanic.
This fact brought about his emigration to America. Governor
Alexander Spottswood discovered evidence of iron ore in the
"districts towards the Blue Ridge", and was instrumental in se-
curing "skilled miners

relates in his letters.
out of Germany" to open mines there, as he
A colony was assembled largely from the
neighborhood of Siegen, and started for America in the late
summer or fall of 1715. They remained in London until the spring
of l7lh when they embarked for America, and by July 21, l7lh, were
safely established in a fort on the Virginia frontier. The new
settlement comprised fourteen dwellings, including Governor
Spottswood's mansion, the parsonage and a residence for each of
the twelve German families, one of which was that of John Kemper.
It was named Germanna and was situated in Essex County in the ex-
trams northeastern corner of what is now Orange County, Virginia.
Here was established the first German setthxm nt in Virginia; here
Saint George's parish was to be formed; here the first iron
furnace in America was built; here the first pig iron was m de;
here the first German Reformed Congregation in the United States
was organized; and from this place the famous expedition of "The
Knights of the Golden Horseshoe" set out on its historic and

romantic quest. 6'
About 1720 the growing colony divided and the twelve original
families went north about twenty miles into the Northern Neck and
settled in Stafford County where they founded a new settlement
called Germantown, near the present post office of Midland,
Virginia in Fauquier County, and devoted their attention to agri-
culture. John Marshall, the third Chief Justice of the United
States was born there, September 2h, 1755, and three generations
of the Missouri branch of the family here tilled the soil in the
eighteenth century.
John Kemper was evidently a man of some ability. His hand-
writing ahows him to have been a man of at least rudimentary edu-
cation, and immediately after his settlement in the new district
he set up a forge and invented and made the first shovel plough.

Accordin% to Willis M. Kemoer, author of the "emoer Genealogy,
Moses Kemper #72 served in the Revolutionary War and is the cousin
mentioned as dying on the way home by Benjamin Morgan fEE, who says
in his declaration for a pension, on file in the Pension Bureau
at Washington, D.C,: "I started home in company with some others
of the Fauquier and Culpeper Militia, two of which, a brother and
a cousin german, died on the way home,"
If this "cousin german" was Moses Kemoer, as seems certain
according to the letter of Tillie M. Kemper below, then hia ser-
vice was no doubt identical with that of Benjamin which is briefly
as follows:
Substituted for John Wishboch and served in 1731 under Cap-
tain Hank Reed and Colonel Pendleton, Served in the some comoony
with Frederick Fiahback,a brother of John Fishhackn Fauquier
County, Virginia was my native county. l was discharged at the
end of my term.
Later I again served for Frederick Krmper (Tvidently f5l)
who was a brother of Charles Kenmer who was Surveyor of Fouquier
County from l799u Served under Colonel Elia Adwords, Captain
William Jenninna, Lieutenant Tdwerd Fell, Orderly écrneant Charles
Kemper.
We marched to Richmond and there joined Generel lafoyette with
the regulars and General Muhlenberg with the militia, We were
captured on Ney 23 and put on board the Sh'p Appollyon and were
carried to Portsmouth, We endured great hardship Jnd privation
but were released on August 1E and "I started home in company with
some others of the Fauquier and Culpeper Militia, two of which,
a brother and a cousin german, died on the way homeu"
The Adjutant General at washington reports: "The name of
Moses Kemper hos not been found on the tolls, on file in this
Department, of any organization of Virginia or Continental troops
in service in the War of the Revolution~ However, the collection
of records of that war in this Department is far from complete,
and the absence therefore of any name is by no means conclusive
evidence that the person who bore the name did not servo in the
Revolutionary Armj." Merch 9, l9lh,
William H, Kemper in the cnornded letter says that Moses
Kemper and his cousin, John Button Vol, were on the way home and
Moses took the smallpox; that Jacob nevertheless tended him to
the last, and that Moses recommended his wife and llttlc daughter
to the care of Jacob, who took such mood care of the widow that
he married her August S, 1702, as the records of Fauqvier County,
Virginia indicate.
The wife in question was Snrah Morgan, whose father and five
or six brothers were in the Revolutionary \rmy, a noted Revolu-
tionary family,

A letter of inquiry addressed to the Adjutant General asking
for any record of the service of James Morgan in the Revolutionary
War elicited the following reply:
"March 9, l91M.
My dear Sir:
Referring to your letter of the oth instant, in which you
request the Revolutionary record of James Morgan, said to have
served in the Fauquier County Militia from Virginia, I have tha
honor to inform you as follows:
The record of this office show that one James Morgan, rank
no. stated, served in Captain rlexander Parker's Company, End
Virginia Regiment, Revolutionary War. His name appears on a list,
dated September 9, 1776, of the members of the company, which shows
in his case, time in service, 11 months, and under head of casual-
ties, "On command" (detatched duty). Neither the date of his
enlistment nor the date of the termination of his service has
been found of record.
The records also show that one James Morman served as s
soldier of the Vlrpinla Infantry, Revolutionary War, His name
appears on a list of soldiers of the Virginia Line who received
certificates for the balance of their full nay, which list shows
in his case as follows: "Dev when, June 19, 1783: Sum L 89-9-O,"
The records further show that one James Morgan served as s
private in Captain Wood Jones' Company, 2nd Virginia Regiment of
Foot, commanded bv Alexander Spotswood, Esq, His heme appears on
s muster roll dated June M, 1777, which shows that he enlisted for
three years, and it last appears without remark on the company
roll for November 1779.
The records further show that ons Janes Morgan served as a
private in Captain William Campbs1l's Company, lst Virginia State
Militia, Revolutionary War. His name appears without remark only
on a pay roll for December, 1779, and January, February, March
and April, 1780, of all monies received and paid by Lieutenant
Charle&SRusse11, Paymaster, to the lst Virginia State Regiment.
Nothing further relative to him has been found of record.

Martin Kemper was living in Culpeper County, Virginia in
the year 1532, BHG he BHG his wife, Rosanna that year executed
a deed to land in Culpeper County which is recorded in Book "ZZ"
at page h62, of the Records of Culpeper County, Virginia. Whether
he was born at Germantown in Fauquier County or in Culpeper
County does not appear. As the two counties edjoih it is at most
a matter of only a few miles.
He married his first cousin, the daughter of his Uncle Moses
Kemper, who seems to have been an only child. Both of them are
buried in the Kemper Burying Ground lying about a mile due east
of New Hope and about fifty yards northwest of the site of the
house which he built when he first came to Missouri, and in which
he lived until his death. Its site is still marked by the ruins
of the old limestone chimneys. The cemetery was looetod, after
the custom of the times, in what was them his orchard.
Soon after the Revolution, the families in and about German-
town began to disintegrate and one by one gained the tide of
emigration flowing towards the west. In 1 32 Ralei%h Mayes, a
son-in-law of Martin, removed to Missouri, and in l 35 Martin
followed him, the women riding horseback with the children behind
them'and the household effects in a covered wagon. The journey
was made overland direct from Culpeper County, Virginia to Lin-
coln Gounty, Missouri.
They crossed the Mississippi River at Saint Louis, then a
small Frannh settlement fortified against the Indians by sharpened
stakes driven into the ground, and with public lands open to pre-
emption all about. Land now in the most densely populated dis-
tricts of the city could have been boucht for $1.25 an acre.
The first night in Lincoln County the family camped et the Old
Fort Spring on the road between Troy and Auburn end the next dey
reached the home of his daughter, Emily Mayes. Martin prospecting
for a home located a spring in a smell ravine running into Lost
Greek lying between the creek and the New Hope-Falmouth Road, a
mils or two west of his son-in-law's farm. Over this spring he
built his spring-house, the indispensible adjunct of every pioneer
home, A short distance to the east, on a gentle slope protected
from the north winds by a thickly wooded hill, he built his log
house with huge stone fireplace. To this hospitable homo came
many Virginians seeking s home in the far West and stayed until
they could Joeste s claim and build a home for themselves. Mrs.

came from Virginia to settle in Missouri. PSlHtSS that tha family
came first to "Uncle Martin Kemperfs" and remained there as his
guest for several weeks while locating a "claim" and that his
house was noted both in Virginia and Missouri for the welcome ex-

tern Csanan.

Matilda Kemper
Know in the family as "Ti1da". She lived to an advanced age
and was never married. After the death of her parents she lived
with her nephew, Alexander Dudley Benear until her death. She is
buried in the family cemetery on her father's farm. At her mother's
death she inherited the family Bible, containing e record of the
family statistics, including dates and notations of the trip from
Virginia to Missouri. Upon her death the Bible passed to her ne-
phew Alexander Dudley Benear, and at his death it went to his
daughter Lucy Wheatley. Unfortunately this venerable heirloom was
destroyed when the Wheatley house was burned in 1916, without the
record having been copied.

Rekeigh Mayes, the son of Henry Moyes and Mary Palmer, was
at Norfolk, Virginia and was married there. He was the first
of either family to come to Missouri, and was followed soon after
by both his father and his father-in-law. He reached Missouri
with his bride in 1832, having made the trip on horseback, and was
among the first to settle along the limestone bluffs of eastern
Lincoln, then practically a virgin wilderness. He purchased a
small tract of land from a settler who had pre-empeted it from
born

ln.
the government shortly before. (It is possible that this may have
been e oart of one of the numerous French grants which are found
in Lincoln and Saint Charles Counties, Reference to the deed
books of the two counties would show this. See abstract of Louis
Mayes farm for this datn,) At the time of his settlement the
Indians were numerous end their camps were found all along the
bluffs, Their teepees were erected on the bluffs in order to
escane the annual overflows of the Father of Waters and close
enough to give access to the river bottoms et that time teeming
with game and fish, The mounds in the present orchnrd of the
Jacob Ellis place, how owned by McDonald which was a pert of the
Raleigh Mayes tract of land. mark the sito of en Indian Village
and the remains of fallen lodges which members of the family now
living (l9l3) remember having seen" The whoops end cells of the
Indians were frequently heard in the forest nbout the cabins of
the early settlers, and in the sbsenee of the men of the family
the children were frequently kent in the house, end the doors
were barred¢ Arrow hoods and other Indien relies nre still found
in profusion over this and adjoining tracts of land" UHKC 2-
bounded in profusion" The second morning efter making camp
Raleigh went down to the ford and waiting there killed three
deer, which had come to drink. The next morning at the same
place he killed two deer. When visitors arrived and there wes
no moot in the house he would tehe his rifle and rsnve through the
woods until he found 5 deer, hang it uo where it was shot and
skin down the hind quarters and out it off there with his hunting
knife and carry it home on his back leaving the rnmnirder of the
deer to tho senvenvers of the forest. On one oeeesion A deer
which had been ehesed by men and does jumned the fence into the
yard while Raleigh was absent from home and in some wey entangled
its entlers in the fence and on eeeount of its exhausted eon~
ditions -- perheps wounded -- was held, Emily Kenner Mayes seized
an ex and with the Pssistanee of e negro woman, one of her slsvem
killed it and dressed it. Wild turkeys were found in large droves
all through the weeds and no attention was oaid to them until larger
game began to fail and shot guna come in to supplant the earlier
rifles,
Releigh'o first house, like all pioneer hone" of the times,
was built of roughly hewn logs with clay floor, elap~boerd roof,
the crooks between the logs being "ehinked" with chips and clay,
It was heated by 9 arent fireplace which consumed large quantities
of wood with littlo`effedt, most ef the heat goine up the chimney.

Practically all the elothinn was of home manufeeture. Skins
were sent to the ten yard and then manufactured into rough shoes
by local eobhT":n,sometime by the slaves. Wool was corded, spun
and woven into cloth nfter which it was fashioned into garments
by the women of the family -- even the beds and blankets beine
made in this manner, All elothinp both of men and women hung
from the shoulder and none was uusoendéd from the waist"

Food was plentiful but of little variety, Qnd consisted large-
ly of wild ment. There was no "fed" meat, even the hogs being
raised on mast and allowed to range the woods until ment was needed.
A11 food was cooked in the fire place either in pots hanging from

A crane or in pans or ovens placed on the coals. Corn bread
served on week days and biscuit on Sundays only as wheat was
scarce and the grinding a difficult and expensive operation. There
were few vegetables and such as there were were small and ill
flavored. THere was no method of preserving fruits except by
burying in the ground or drying. Until cane was planted the only
sugar obtainable was moole sunnr, mnd every farmer maintained his
Sugar camp whore it was regularly made for the family use every

Nuts were carefully gathered every fa11 as a vsluahle addition to
the winter menu.

to be obtained and it sold for from 12% cents to 2§¢ ver pnllon

the noorer people to get sufficient money to may them, and as 1ate
as 1GhO a debt of $2.00 was a bxmden. Raleigh Mayes was Constable
of Hurricane Township, at that time a place of importance as it
constituted the executive officer of the law in what was then
frontier country. The fans nf the office gave him some ready money
and his trips to the county sent at Troy nnd his duties as Con~
stable gave him the opportunity to buy land sold For taxes. As 3
result he acquired a number of tracts of land which hq farmed with
his slaves. Slaves were the dividinf line between the aristo-
cracy nnd the plahian of the times. But slave labor was slow and
uninhelligent. They were more of a luxury than a necessity and in
lwtter days were principally valuable about the house. The1r only
real advantage was in clcwrinv the land of the dense growths of
timber, and in that wmv they contributed tn Rs1e1gh's prosperity,
making lsnd profitable bmich otherwise would nat have produced
taxes. He owned over thirty slaves at the opening of the Civil
War, men, women and children, and in the tax lists of 1850 is
named as one of the 1ar est slave holders in the county. (History

v

time Raleigh became an important factor in his community and
accumulated considerable property holdings. He gave each of his
children at marriage a farm of 200 acres and stock and equipment
to operate it. He and his wife are buried in the small family
burying ground, which at that time was directly upon the New
Hepa-Falmouth road, a short distance from his house, but which
through change of tim road to the present highway is now isolated.
