Story* __ ___ ____ (1752: "Jakob Lang (Jacob Long), b. in Ober-Raat, bap. Sadel Parish, Zurich,
Switzerland, 1 Dec. 1737, arrived in Charleston, SC, 7 Dec 1752, via Rotterdam
on board the Caledonia, Capt. Alexander Harvey, Commander, settled in the
Crim's Creek area of the upper Dutch Fork, Newberry District in 1752, being
one of the earliest families to settle in Newberry District. He was a planter,
d. before 3 Aug 1786, m. before 7 Dec 1752 to Judith __. She d. after 28 Feb
1796."
After the Rev. War: "Part of the land of Jacob Long and seemingly all of the
land of Jacob Replogle was in that area of Lexington or Newberry that was
first Lexington then Newberry for a few years just after the Revolution,
because there are no records of the Long children owning land that passed from
Jacob Replogle to them. So it either was recorded in the records that were too
badly torn to be moved to the new (present) courthouse in Newberry, or was
recorded in Lexington and destroyed when Sherman burned the Courthouse."
Before 1795: Much material on early Dunkers (in South Carolina) is in the
work "Materials Toward A History of Baptists in South Carolina, 1772" by
Morgan Edwards. This was written in 1772, and is found on microfilm.
"The location of the early Dunkers of Newberry County, SC, is referred to as
The Dutch Fork (The word Dutch as used here probably is an alteration of the
German word "Deutsch" rather than meaning people from the Netherlands). There
were many German families who settled in that area in the 1700s. Several
indexes to books covering the history of Newberry County, SC have been checked
without finding a reference to Jacob Replogle."
"If Jacob Replogle was associated with The Church of the Brethren or one of
its antecedents (Tunkers, Dunkers, Old Order German Baptist, etc.) a clue
might be found as to his activities in SC.
"The history of the area and its people has been discussed (Internet
message, 24 Jan. 1997) by Ferne Baldwin of Manchester College, as follows: The
classic source for information on the Brethren in the Carolinas is by Roger E.
Sappington titled "The Brethren In The Carolinas," 1971. In that book, p. 26,
he quotes from the earlier work of Morgan Edwards (see above) describing the
early Baptists (Tunkers) in South Carolina: "In 1748 a few Tunker baptists
from Connecocheague (an area in or around York County, PA) came into the
northwest part about the waters of Santee." He further mentions "About the
year 1748 Michael Millers, Jacob Canomore, Lawrence Free with their wives
arrived hither from Connecocheague." Leah Townsend, in her dissertation "South
Carolina Baptists: 1670-1805" (Florence, SC, The Florence Printing Co., 1935),
says that Lawrence Free had a survey of 400 acres on Wilkinsons Creek in 1752.
Free is identified as a Pennsylvanian. He is identified with the Beaver Creek
Congregation in South Carolina. Universalism was the main problem related to
SC and there were frequent discussions at Annual Meeting and in other areas of
the brotherhood. This was related to the later movement of many of these
people to Kentucky.
1795: Jacob's will was written 28 Nov 1795 and proved 28 Feb 1796 at
Newberry Co SC (no Replogle ch were named in the will). See Early Will Sect.
of RRG, 1984. An abstract of his will has been found. His will is quoted in
full in "A Documented History Of The Long Family 1578-1956 Including Allied
Families," by Eytive Long Evans, pub. 1956, Lib. of Cong. Cat. Card No. 56-
11873, p. 16-17.
In "Newberry Co SC Hist. and Gen.," by George Leland Summer, Sr., published
1950, is a section on Abstracts (of) Old Wills, which includes the will of
Jacob Replogle, deceased (p 465). It mentions the executor of the will was
Michael Kinard. Is "Kinard" a variant of "Conard?" If so, there might be a
connection to the John Jacob Replogle who settled in LA in 1721 and had a son
who married a Margaret Conard.
1787: In 1787 at Newberry Co. SC his name was drawn for "the Petit
Jury for next term." Other surnames drawn for this jury are the same surnames
as Pa. and Va. Replogle-related surnames: Ruff/Roff (Roof?), Countz/Coontz,
Stoutinmoyer/Stottlemire, Long, and Furnis/Furry. His wife's ch were named in
his will as heirs
).
