Dove shows on p. 160 a photo of the home purchased in Madison Co., Va. in 1850 by Nathaniel from bachelor Joseph Wilhoit. Joseph's sister, Rosina Wilhoit was Nathaniel's Aunt by marriage to John Wayland, his father Adam's half brother. This home, which is still standing was probably the last home that Nathaniel lived in prior to leaving for Missouri in 1869. He settled in the Franklin Township in MO on rich river bottom land and became a prosperous farmer.

For reference, see "History of Chariton and Howard Counties", pub. about 1923, which has biography on Nathaniel's grandson, Marvin Wayland on p. 335 (source for this book is The State Historical Society of Missouri, Hitt and Lowry Streets, Columbia, MO. 65201...send SASE).

Nathaniel is found in the 1850 Madison Co., Va. Census, no. 426; the 1870 Howard Co. Mo. Census on p. 3 (same page as his brother R.F. Wayland who preceded him to Mo.); the 1876 Special Mo. State Census; and the 1880 Howard Co., Mo. Census, p.21, at age 65. The biography mentioned above on Marvin mentions that Nathaniel had two sons who fought on opposite sides of the Civil War. Fielding fought for the South, the identity of the other is unknown.

He was half-first cousin to his wife through grandmother Mary Finks and different husbands of hers.

Mary Ann CRIGLER [Parents] ¹ was born on 20 Jan 1817 in , Culpeper Co., Virginia. She died after 1880 in , , Missouri. Mary married Nathaniel S. WAYLAND on 18 Jan 1838 in , Madison Co., Virginia.

Robert F. WAYLAND Dr. [Parents] ^{1, 2} was born in 1825 in , , Virginia. He died on 8 Feb 1907 in St. Louis, , Missouri and was buried in Mt. Pleasant Cem, New Franklin, Missouri. Robert married Ella M "Ellen" PHIPPS on 29 Dec 1874 in , Howard Co., Missouri.

Hotzclaw is wrong in thinking that he married his cousin. Robert came to Missouri, and got his half-brother, Nathaniel, to follow him. He was a bachelor physician for many years, but married late in life. There are no known children (he was past 50). He is buried next to his wife in the same cemetary as his nephew, Joseph (A145). He is found in the 1850 Howard Co. Census, age 25, physician. Only other one in household is Chas. Butler/Butter:

Never was a nurse more faithful and it was her continual prayer that she might live to care for him and minister to his wants during his last days. Early in life, he made the good confession and has been a true and consecrated member of the Methodist church ever since. He wore one bible completely out, during his sickness, searching for a better knowledge of his master's will. Rev. Rutledge of Rocheport preached the fureral at the Methodist church Monday morning at 10:00. A large concourse of people gathered to attend the church and to the grave by the members of Howard Lodge No 4, A.F.&A. M. of which order he was honored and faithful member. Services at the grave were conducted by this order. It was not our privledge to know Dr. Wayland personally, but from a knowledge of his dealings with his fellowman we know him to have been honest and upright, strickly conscientious in all his actions and sincere to the last degree. He loved not pomp and display, but preferred the simple life. Many a young person has placed implicit confidence in what he said because his actions proved his words. But 'tis useless to multiply words when his life and character ae known to us all, for it can be well and truly said, " His was a life will spent".

Ella M "Ellen" PHIPPS was born about 1830. She married Robert F. WAYLAND Dr. on 29 Dec 1874 in , Howard Co., Missouri.

WELLS was born about 1809. He married Mary HUFFMAN after 1829.

Mary HUFFMAN [Parents] was born in 1809 in , Madison Co., Virginia. She died in 1866. Mary married WELLS after 1829.

NOTE: A, p. 95

Granddaughter of John Huffman, the 1714 Germanna Colonist (see Germanna Record No. 5, pp. 345-347,349 ff; and Record No. 3 for Huffman genealogy). According to her father's will, Mary married (2) a Mr. Wells. Huffman is also "Hoffman". The first wife of John Hoffman was Anna Catherine Haeger, dtr. of Rev. John Henry Haeger, the religious leader of the first colony, so Mary is a direct descendant of Rev. Haeger also.

Samuel HUFFMAN [Parents] was born about 1770. He married Eve HUFFMAN.

Eve HUFFMAN was born about 1780. She married Samuel HUFFMAN.

Eve's parentage is uncertain, but is believed to have been the d/o one of Samuel's uncles, William, Frederick or Henry; William is the favored one.

		M	i	Jacob Wesley WAYLAND was born about 1865. Supposed relationship to Dr. Wayland from his notes mentioning this. He says that Jacob and James lived in Caldwell Co. and other counties in Missouri. He knew nothing of Boone or Howard Co. Waylands. Unpublished note of historian Dr. John W. Wayland: "The following items are from my Everyday Book No. 10, entries made at different times after Jan 1926; perhaps some of the items collected before that time. 'Mrs. Annie Wayland died Jan 22, 1912 at Bonnie, aged 48 yrs, 7 mons, and 8 days. She is survived by her husband (Jacob W. Wayland) and seven children - two sons and five dtrs.,and three sisters, Misses Fannie and Ellen Pennywitt and Mrs. Lydia C.

NOTE: A, p.96

Dr. Wayland wrote much about Germanna, and contributed to the knowledge
about it. One of his books was "Germanna: Outpost of Adventure, 1714-1956", published by the Memorial Foundation, The McClure Printing Co., Staunton, Va., 1956. He claimed descendance not only from Thomas Wayland, but also from the religious leader of the original colony, Rev. John Henry Haeger, through his daughter, Anna Catherine, first wife of John Hoffman (Huffman).

This was posted by Pam Benckhuysen :

From the March 1962 issue of the Harnsberger Newsletter

It is not clear whether this was written by the editor of the Harnsberger Newsletter or came from another source.

-------------------

Dr. JOHN WALTER WAYLAND passed on January 10, 1962 enroute to Rockingham Memorial Hospital from his home at 53 Weaver Avenue, Harrisonburg, Virginia, where he suffered a heart attack.

Professor C.E. May of Bridgewater College wrote in the Harrisonburg Daily News Record in 1958: " Dr John W. Wayland was born to chronicle the history of the Shenandoah Valley to sing songs about her scenic beauty and romantic past"

Proof of this statement lies in the fact that Dr. Wayland's parents and the location of his birthplace developed in him an early interest in local history and influenced him to become the chronicler of the Shenandoah
Valley. His mother kept a diary from 1850 to 1900. Included in her daily entries during the War Between the States were accounts of Confederate and Union armies as they passed her home near Mt. Jackson, and Dr. Wayland, as a boy, often heard her tell of stirring Civil War events. "Woodlawn", Dr. Wayland's birthplace, later became Woodlawn Academy, a noted Shenandoah County school in the 19th century. His father was a history teacher at the Academy.

Born December 08, 1872 at "Woodlawn", in Shenandoah County, Virginia, the son of John Wesley and Anna (Kagey) Wayland, Dr. Wayland was married on June 08, 1898 to Miss Mattie V. Fry of Bridgewater, who survivies him. Also surviving are their two sons: Francis Fry, professor of History at Wagner Lutheran College, Staten Island, New York and John Walter Jr. of Alexandria, Virginia.

Dr. Wayland received his B.A. degree from Bridgewater College in 1899 and his Ph. D from the University of Virginia in 1907. He was awarded an honorary Ll.D degree by Bridgewater College in 1936. In addition to his writing of history Dr. Wayland taught the New Testament, History and Ethics at Bridgewater College before going to Harrisonburg in 1909 with the 15 member faculty assembled to organize Harrisonburg State Normal School, now Madison College. He remained as professor of history and social science until his retirement in 1931. At the University of Virginia he was a charter member of the Raven Society and a member of Phi Beta Kappa. Living history and writing it day by day, he kept a diary, or so he called it, an "everyday book" which by 1957 had grown to 30 volumes of over 300 pages each. His life was one of constant research into Virginia history and instilling in others the love of their state and country by giving them an intimate knowledge of their history.

Among his many books on history are "Stonewall Jackson's Way", "The Bowmans, a Pioneering Family in Virginia", "Kentucky and the Northwest Territory". "The Washingtons and their Homes", "A Condensed History of the Civil War". as well as histories of Rockingham and Shenandoah Counties. He did not
forget his children, and with them in mind he wrote " How to Teach American History", A Virginia History for Boys and Girls", "History Stories for Primary Grades" and " A World History for Secondary Schools".

Dr. Wayland was also an authority on the Lincolns of Rockingham, the forebears of Abraham Lincoln. He said in an interview that his interest in the family dated from 1903, when members of related families turned over to him various old deeds, wills, letters, patents, plats of land surveys, account books and other papers which had been handed down from Colonial times in the Lincoln Family. He continued to collect information about the family which formed the basis of his book "The Lincolns of Virginia". He conducted three noted Lincoln writers, Hamlin Garland, Ida M. Tarrbell and Carl Sandburg over the Lincoln homestead.

He was a founding member of the Rockingham Historical Society, an honorary member of the Virginia Historical Society and a life member of the Kansas State Historical Society and an active participant in teh Shenandoah Valley Civil War Round Table and the Harrisonburg-Rockingham Civil War Commission.
He was the great-great-great grandson of Rev. John Henry Haeger, spiritual leader of the noted Germanna Colony in Colonial Virginia and was one of the founders and always vigorous in the promotion of the work of the Memorial Foundation of the Germanna Colonies of Virginia.

In addition to his works on history, Dr. Wayland wrote several books of sometimes gentle and sometimes stirring verses: "Whispers of the Hills", Old Virginia", and "Shenandoah." It is our pride that Dr. Wayland was kind enough to present us with an autographed copy of "Whispers of the Hills." Below we quote one of his poems, which seems to epitomize his life work and to be a fitting tribute to him as a man, a teacher and an historian:

REVEILLE

All that the hand hath wrought
Shall crumble under the slow waste of time.
Not so creations of the mind,
Or the high beacons of truth
That light the soul;
Nor shall the teacher's task be ever ended,
For he must point the way
From age to age,
And guide the feet of trusting youth
Unto the gates of life,
And show a better world
To rise from youth's unfading dream.

Mattie Virginia FRY [Parents] was born on 13 Feb 1877 in Bridgewater, VA. She died on 20 Dec 1965 in Rockingham Co., VA and was buried in Oak Lawn Cem., Bridgewater, VA. Mattie married John Walter WAYLAND Dr. on 8 Jun 1898.
