Another cousin, Edith Walker, who sent me Randy's URL, said, "This is our Magill line.  The daughter of William Magill born
1715(#2),  Elizabeth,  who married  Thomas Walker, Sr.,  is the mother of (our) Jane Walker."            Edith, ewalk@alltel.net

In the name of God, Amen ? I, William Magill of the County of Greene and State of Tennessee, former being in a bad state of health but of perfect mind and memory, thanks be given unto God: Calling unto mind the mortality of my body and knowing that it is appointed for all men once to die, do make and ordain this, my last will and testament, that is to say principally and first of all I give and recommend my soul unto the hand of Almighty God that gave it and my body I recommend to the Earth to be buried in decent Christian burial at the discretion of my executors, nothing doubting but at the general resurrection I shall receive the same again by the mighty power of God. And as touching such worldly estate wherewith it has pleased God to bless me in this life. I give, divide, and dispose of the same in the following manner and form.
 
 

First -- I give and bequeath to Jane Magill my dearly beloved wife, the whole of my household furniture, also her choice of two milk cows and two steers out of my stock of cattle and my riding mare, her side saddle, and bridle together with my Negro woman named Jude, the whole of which I bequeath to her as her absolute property ? and also one ewe and lamb.

Secondly ? I give and bequeath unto Samuel Magill, William Magill, James Magill, Robert Magill, John Magill, Hugh Magill and Charles Magill, my sons, and Elizabeth Walker, my daughter, wife to Thomas Walker, the residue of my stock of cattle to be equally divided amongst them.

Thirdly ? I give and bequeath unto my beloved sons Hugh Magill and Charles Magill the whole of my plantation on which I live for to remain in one entire tract until they agree to dispose of it and then the money or property from thence arising shall be equally divided between them reserving a comfortable living for my dearly and well beloved wife, Jane Magill out of the plantation or of the profits arising therefrom at sale during her natural life.

Fourthly ? I hereby make, constitute, ordain and appoint Hugh Magill and Charles Magill my sole executors of this my last will and testament and I do hereby utterly disallow, revoke, disannul all and every former testament, wills and bequests and executors by me in any way as before ordained, willed and bequeathed; ratifying and confirming this and no other to be my last will and testament.

In witness whereof I have hereunto set my hand and seal this nineteenth day of July in the year of our Lord one thousand, eight hundred and six.

Signed, sealed, published, pronounced, and delivered by the said William Magill as his last will and testament in the presence of us who in his presence and in the presence of each other have hereunto subscribed our names.

[Randy Treadway Note: I received an email from Doris Johnson in August 2000 with this wonderful information she found posted by Jill Jones at Worldconnect. It is a letter written by John Magill, living in Franklin Co., Kentucky to his nephew Caleb Magill, written on 12 September 1838. Jill stated that this letter was from the book Greener Pastures, from the Tidewater to Texas and Beyond, by Weldon Wayne Rogers, 1996.  The letter below is in the possession of Kenneth Steele Kimmel, great-grandson of Caleb Magill.  Kenneth also purchased the Magill Bible from a man in Colorado, so the Bible is back in the hands of family members. Thank you for this wonderful information, Mrs. Kenneth S. Kimmel-Lola!]
Dear Nephew Caleb,

I received your letter some twelve months ago but, not having it at hand, I do not exactly recall the date the letter informed me of the death of your father. I presume it was the only one you sent me. I ought to apologize for not writting sooner. I am frequently in distress of mind and from a blamable neglect of duty I often neglect to answer letters immediately when I receive them; and after a while forget them. I now let you know that throught the goodness of God we are all in tolerable state of health for which we ought to be thankful. I have not received any information from you and any of your brothers and sisters since I received your letter from Mr. John Elliott informed that you lived in this neighborhood. I have nothing to write that can be very interesting to you as you are not acquainted with any persons here nor I with any in your neighborhood. As for my family, I had the misfortune to lose my best friend five years ago last November on the 14th of the month. 

I have one son living in Clinton County, Indiana named Matthew E. Magill, one other in the same county named Cyrus Magill. One in Park County named Samuel P. Magill. One living with me named John Allen Magill, who is practicing physics on the Thompsonian plan and is very successful. One daughter Margaret S. Magill and one named Tennyann.

My grandfather, William Magill, migrated from Ireland in the year 1727 with three sons named James, William, and John, who was my father, and five daughters, to wit: Jane who married William Dickson, he died and she married a McKee; Sarah married William Berry, Betty married James Berry, later John Jones; Esther who married Hugh Campbell; Ann who married Robert Fowler. My uncle James had three sons; William, Alexander and James. My uncle William had seven sons, to wit: Samuel, William, James, Robert, John, Hugh, and Charles, three last named by a second wife. My father had six sons, James, Samuel, John, David and Hugh.

I have been particular so that you may know if you meet with any persons of the name of Magill you can tell whether they are your relation. I have seen several from Ireland that are no kin of mine. They spell their name McGill. They are generally native Irish and Roman Catholic. I recollect to have seen my grandfather's certificate from Ireland 1725. It was spelled Magill and all his descendants spell their name the same way. Any who do not are not of our kindred.

Our forefathers were Scotch, lived in Scotland and were Protestants. The time of persecution in England and Scotland in the reign of King James of England, they with many others, emigrated to Ireland which gave them the Scoth-Irish which name they are frequently called to this day. I never knew of any of father's relations coming to America only one family which was John Magill. He settled in Winchester, Virginia about the year 1775. He was a lawyer and had two sons, Archibald Magill who was a major in the Army at the time of the Revolution. The other, Charles Magill, was a lawyer and either he or one of his sons, is at this time, president or cashier in the Valley Bank of Virginia.

There has been more sickness and is at this time in our neighborhood than I ever knew at one time and I believe it is general throughout the state of Kentucky. As for religion in this county, there is a great many professors to different denominations. There is Presbyterians, Baptists, Methodists, Campbellites, Two Seeds alias Carkorites and Shakers. I have heard lately of two Mormons preaching about 16 miles from here.

Crops of wheat are good this summer. Corn crop is sorry through this state. I wish I could write every good opportunity. Give my respects to all your brothers and sisters and all inquiring friends. They day before yesterday I received a letter from my sister, Elizabeth Frame, liviing in Ohio State, Preble County. She is 83 years old last March. The only sister I have living. All my brothers are dead and yet I am spared the goodness of God. May we all be prepared through the goodness of God and the sanctifying influence of the holy spirit for an endless and happy eternity is the prayer of your affectionate uncle who lacks only one month and eight days of being 79 years old. 

Signed, John Magill

MORE ? McGill Background

Ancestry and Family Background
 

If you search the Library of Congress Catalog Card for No. 70-152303, You would find "Walter McGill ? Preacher and Penmen" published in 1971 by Lucille M. Bates who was encouraged to write a book fifteen years earlier (1956) by Letha McGill Ford, her aunt.

One day Lucille Bates became interested in learning more about the life of her paternal great-grandfather. She started with a short memorial and gave it to the descendants of her great-grandfather to get interest for the purchase of a monument for his grave.

From that memorial she became so engrossed in the project that she decided to try to lengthen the paper into a biography. By 1970 she had the edition ready for publication.
 

William Magill ? Smithy in Tennessee

We start our journey of William Magill applying at the Cherokee Indian Agency at southwest Point, New Kingston, Tennessee, for a permit to go into the Indian Territory.

According to the pass, William Magill along with Innis (or James) Harris and Nehemiah G. Lostater were allowed to go into the Cherokee Nation to Lookout Mountain to work at his business of smithy. Colonel Return Jonathan Meigs, Indian Agent of the War Department, signed the Pass August 28, 1803.

The break of dawn in late August 1803 found these three men (William, James, Nehemiah) slowly drifting down the Tennessee River on a raft. None of them were trappers or traders.

If you looked closer you would have found a camper’s tent on one side of the flat boat and a blacksmith’s anvil on the other. They were headed further down the river where they would take care of the smithy needs of the partly civilized Cherokee Indians.

They traveled an approximate seventy-five miles from Kingston in Roane County to a trading post (Old French Store) where the city of Chattanooga now stands. Lookout Mountain towered above the Old French Store that was located just above Moccasin Bend on the Tennessee River.

According to Lucille, "Magill was the adventuresome type of settler who liked to be on the frontier away from the more densely populated sections of the country."

Lucille goes on to state, "Robert Patterson, William Magill, and Mr. Gamble are said to be the first pioneers to make lasting homes in the locality of Hamilton County which had previously been frequented only by trappers, traders, and missionaries."

William Magill originally came from Greene County, Tennessee. His parents and his brothers and a sister were charter members of the Timber Ridge Presbyterian Church. William, Sr. and his wife Jane Magill (parents of William Magill) were still living there when William, Sr.’s last will and testament was written and signed on July 19, 1806. It was probated on October 28, 1806 in the county seat courthouse at Greeneville
 

The Will of William Magill, Sr.

 
 
In the name of God, Amen ? I, William Magill of the County of Greene and State of Tennessee, former being in a bad state of health but of perfect mind and memory, thanks be given unto God: Calling unto mind the mortality of my body and knowing that it is appointed for all men once to die, do make and ordain this, my last will and testament, that is to say principally and first of all I give and recommend my soul unto the hand of Almighty God that gave it and my body I recommend to the Earth to be buried in decent Christian burial at the discretion of my executors, nothing doubting but at the general resurrection I shall receive the same again by the mighty power of God. And as touching such worldly estate wherewith it has pleased God to bless me in this life. I give, divide, and dispose of the same in the following manner and form.
 
 

First -- I give and bequeath to Jane Magill my dearly beloved wife, the whole of my household furniture, also her choice of two milk cows and two steers out of my stock of cattle and my riding mare, her side saddle, and bridle together with my Negro woman named Jude, the whole of which I bequeath to her as her absolute property ? and also one ewe and lamb.

Secondly ? I give and bequeath unto Samuel Magill, William Magill, James Magill, Robert Magill, John Magill, Hugh Magill and Charles Magill, my sons, and Elizabeth Walker, my daughter, wife to Thomas Walker, the residue of my stock of cattle to be equally divided amongst them.

Thirdly ? I give and bequeath unto my beloved sons Hugh Magill and Charles Magill the whole of my plantation on which I live for to remain in one entire tract until they agree to dispose of it and then the money or property from thence arising shall be equally divided between them reserving a comfortable living for my dearly and well beloved wife, Jane Magill out of the plantation or of the profits arising therefrom at sale during her natural life.

Fourthly ? I hereby make, constitute, ordain and appoint Hugh Magill and Charles Magill my sole executors of this my last will and testament and I do hereby utterly disallow, revoke, disannul all and every former testament, wills and bequests and executors by me in any way as before ordained, willed and bequeathed; ratifying and confirming this and no other to be my last will and testament.

In witness whereof I have hereunto set my hand and seal this nineteenth day of July in the year of our Lord one thousand, eight hundred and six.

Signed, sealed, published, pronounced, and delivered by the said William Magill as his last will and testament in the presence of us who in his presence and in the presence of each other have hereunto subscribed our names.

Emigration of Magills . . .

It has been told that just after the Revolutionary War, the Magill family emigrated from Augusta County, Virginia, and found cheap, fertile land in a wilderness region which became a part of eastern Tennessee.
 
 

When the Magills' settled there in 1783 it was a part of North Carolina. William Magill's name is included in a long list of signers who clamored for a separate state in 1784 known as Franklin with John Sevier as governor. Finally on June 1, 1796, this region became the sixteenth state of the Union and was called Tennessee.

According to Lucille Bates, "The Magills' were Scottish people and staunch supporters of the Presbyterian Church. Because of religious persecution, the Presbyterians left their homes in the lowland region of Scotland between 1607 and 1699 and settled in the part of Ireland known as Ulster. Friction developed between the churchmen and the Roman Catholics of Ireland, and in 1715 the Presbyterian Scots were leaving Ireland for the Colonies in America."

Lucille goes on to state, "The Scotch-Irish, who were really not Irish at all, found William Penn's Colony the most attractive settlement in America. He offered both religious freedom and a liberal land policy to each immigrant who wanted to settle there."

During that time the eastern seaboard had already been settled by early arrivals, and the Scots drifted to the backcountry of Pennsylvania. By 1750, many of these immigrants had moved into the Shenandoah Valley. Some made homes and stayed, while others moved up the valley until they reached Virginia (or the background of the wilderness of North Carolina).

The Church records at the Mount Bethel Church in Soddy, Tennessee show the Magill Family settled first in Bucks County, Pennsylvania, when they landed in America. After a short stay, the members soon migrated to Augusta County, Virginia, and then to that part of Tennessee which became Greene County.
 

The Spelling of Magill

Those earlier members of the family who settled in Pennsylvania and later spread out into Virginia and Tennessee spelled their name "Magill". Most, but not all of the members, have changed the original spelling to "McGill". Either spelling was acceptable and could refer to the same person.

James' son (Robert Magill) was the first elder of the church after it was organized on September 2, 1837, and his grandson (R. Lynn Magill) at the age of 85, was still an active elder of the church in 1968.

[John M. Gwin Note: Tonight, 17 May 2006, I have received the following e.mail from Mr. Maurice Woolsoncroft and am posting it here. Please notice that Randy Treadway listed some items from Mr. Woolsoncroft (above), mistakenly using the latter's e.mail username instead of his last name. I have not taken the time yet to study Mr. Woolsoncroft's information nor reformat his items into my own format; however, it is my intention to do so in the future. In addition, I have invited him to view this page and send any aditional information he wishes.]

Subject: Magill research

Hello 
I just read your Dec 1999 Magill Forum message. I am retired from the Santa Fe Railway and working on Magill History for a hobby. I have been at it for 50 years off and on. grin.
 
Would you kindly send me a copy by mail or Email of your lineage showing all brothers and sisters information through the generations.  I want to compare information on the Magill descendants. AND WOULD YOU BELIEVE... there are "Other Gwins" in this work.
I paste below the ones I know. I will be very anxious to see your information. THANKS.
