5 Tour Bus Sights (Old Town, formerly Opessa) Michael Cresap House Michael Cresap was the son of the celebrated pioneer Colonel Thomas Cresap (c c.1790). He spent part of his adult years in the Ohio Country as a trader and land developer. He led several raids against Indians whom he believed were hostile to white settlement. The war leader Logan (c. 1723? 1780), of the Mingo Indians, accused Cresap of murdering his family. In fact, the killings were almost certainly perpetrated by Daniel Greathouse, yet Cresap was immortalized in Logan's speech quoted in Thomas Jefferson's Notes on the State of Virginia (1785) as the murderer of Logan's family. As a result of the murders, Logan waged war on the settlements along the Ohio and in western Pennsylvania, killing, perhaps, nearly thirty men, women and children. Lord John Murray Dunmore, the British Royal Governor of Virginia, raised an army and appointed Cresap to the rank of captain. The decisive battle of Dunmore's War was the Battle of Point Pleasant (10 October 1774) in Virginia (now West Virginia). Here Dunmore's forces defeated a band of Shawnee Indians led by Cornstalk. After Lord Dunmore's War, Cresap returned to Maryland and subsequently raised a company of riflemen for the Continental Army during the American Revolution. He died from illness in New York City while in the service of the army; he is interred there in Trinity Church Cemetery. Continued on page 6 The Friendship News Page 5
6 Tour Bus Sights (Old Town, formerly Opessa) Continued from page 5 Colonel Thomas Cresap (c.1702 c.1790) was an English-born pioneering settler and trader in the states of Maryland and Pennsylvania. He is something of a founding father from the dark side in American Colonial history, both reviled and admired. Cresap served Lord Baltimore as an agent in the 'Maryland-Pennsylvania boundary dispute' that became known as Cresap's War south of what became Wrightsville, Pennsylvania. Later, together with the Native American chief Nemacolin, Cresap improved a Native American path to the Ohio Valley, and ultimately settled and became a large landowner near Cumberland, Maryland where he became involved in further disputes near- Brownsville, Pennsylvania including in the French and Indian War and Lord Dunmore's War. Cresap was born in Skipton, Yorkshire, England, and emigrated across the Atlantic Ocean to the Maryland colony when 15 years old. In 1723 he gave his occupation as that of a carpenter. He initially settled at the mouth of the Susquehanna River on the Chesapeake, on the lower end of a floodplain called the Conejohela Valley, and built boats. In 1725 Cresap married Hannah Johnson, whose father, Thomas Johnson, had surveyed Mount Johnson Island, at Peach Bottom Ferry. Cresap moved farther west to within two miles (3 km) of present-day Cumberland, Maryland, where he again embarked in the Indian trade. This area, the Cumberland Narrows mountain pass led into the Monongahela River valley. During the 1740s, colonials were petitioning the crown to obtain lands of the so-called Ohio Country across the Allegheny Mountains from the Indians. The Cumberland narrows is one of only five navigable routes over the Appalachian Mountains barrier range. Cresap founded what is now Oldtown, Maryland by building a trading post at the foot of the Amerindian trail over Wills Mountain (renamed Haystack now near Cresaptown). The colonials wanted the crown to open these possessions for settlement, and give them out under charter in the same old way, through the crown's minister. Cresap also sent traders over the pass and explored personally in Amerindian lands along the Monongahela upriver of Redstone Old Forts. Although Maryland's land grant ended at the crest of the Appalachian mountains, both Pennsylvania and Virginia claimed their land grants continued westward, so the land claimed by Cresap and his traders west of the Appalachians ultimately became part of upper West Virginia and western Pennsylvania. Cresap fought a number of skirmishes with the Indians and stood his ground, assisted by his wife and later his sons. When the French and their allies attempted to seize the territory west of the Allegheny Mountains from the English, Cresap and his sons at their own expense raised two companies of volunteer soldiers. During the French and Indian War, Cresap raised a company of Rangers. Cresap, in his later years, was a large landholder. He became totally blind a few years before his death. He married a second time, to Margaret Milburn, when he was eighty years of age. He died in c.1790 at his home in Allegany County, Maryland, aged eighty-eight. The Friendship News Page 6
7 Tour Bus Sights (The Paw Paw Tunnel) The Paw Paw Tunnel The Paw Paw Tunnel is a 3,118-foot (950 m) long canal tunnel on thechesapeake and Ohio Canal (C&O) in Allegany County, Maryland. Located near Paw Paw, West Virginia, it was built to bypass the Paw Paw Bends, a 6-mile (9.7 km) stretch of the Potomac River containing five horseshoeshaped bends. The town, the bends, and the tunnel take their name from the pawpaw trees that grow prolifically along nearby ridges. At Paw Paw, the canal engineers had a quandary with no easy solutions: follow the river, with its cliffs which would have required crossing over to West Virginia, damming the river to make a slackwater and hacking out from the cliffs on the Maryland side, or making a tunnel. The newly appointed engineer, Charles B. Fisk, managed to convince the board of directors of the tunnel, and the tunnel plan was approved in February 1836, with an expected completion date of July Lee Montgomery, a Methodist minister who had experience from building the canal tunnel for the Union Canal ] was awarded the contract on March 15, Construction on the tunnel began in In 1848, a subcontract was let to McCulloch and Day to finish the tunnel. The tunnel was opened for traffic (and essentially completed) in 1850, but the brick liner was not finished until after the tunnel The Friendship News Page 7

10 EXECUTIVE BOARD ELECTIONS We will be voting for three open positions on the Executive Board (one for president). Below are the biographies for the two ending board positions: Biographical Sketch: Ronald (Ronn) Friend My grandfather, Smith McClelland Friend, often referred to our Sang Run, Maryland clan as criss-cross and crossing Friends due to the many crossings of our family lines. One such crossing occurred when he married Adelia Alice Friend, his third cousin. He was a Sang Run Friend, she a Friendsville Friend. I knew from the framed family tree that hung in our family room displaying my father Ralph s lineage, that my 5th great grandfather was Nicolas Friend, whose son John Friend, Sr. was my 4th great grandfather. But most amazing for me was the fact that three of John Sr. s sons were my 3rd great grandfathers (John Jr., Joseph, and Charles). In some fashion my father continued this blending of family lines when he married my mother Susan Whorton, whose stepmother Mary Friend Whorton was his first cousin once removed. Over the years I have come to appreciate this wonderful crisscrossing of family lines as well as the crisscrossing of my ancestors as they moved westward to Ohio, Missouri and Illinois -- and places in between and beyond. How great it is to carry the Friend surname and to explore the many crossings of that name! This past summer I had the wonderful opportunity to serve as a volunteer at the Friend Family Museum and Library in Friendsville and work alongside some very special dedicated and innovative folk who also volunteered their time and talents to keep the library/museum open. I eagerly anticipate being at the library/museum again this summer! Since August 2015, I have served on the FFAA Board of Directors, being appointed to fill a vacancy. I look forward to continuing to serve on the FFAA Board and to explore ways with Board members and the FFAA membership to expand research opportunities at the FFAA library, including the digitization of genealogical records and working with organizations and higher education institutions in the area to line up interns and volunteers to help with the work of the library/museum. I am also willing to assist in exploring grant opportunities to further the work of our organization. I was raised on a small family farm in Sang Run, Maryland, where I now have my retirement home. I am a retired educator, having been a classroom teacher, a school principal, and district administrator before serving in administrative and leadership positions with the Maryland State Department of Education and the United States Department of Education. For five years I was a member of an international rural development team in Mexico with the Methodist Board of Global Ministries where I worked with Mexican federal and state officials to establish early childhood centers and adult Spanish literacy classes. I hold a doctorate in social and philosophical foundations of education from the University of Southern California. Biographical Sketch: Jeff Custer I have been a member of the Friend Family Association since 1987 (member # 564) and at the last Gathering (2014) was asked by the board to complete an open position. I have also been working on the newsletter for a number of years and started a larger digital newsletter in conjunction with the printed newsletter in 2012, hoping to decrease the cost that is incurred with the printed version. Also developed and maintained the FFAA s current website for almost ten years (updated in 2014) as well as the monthly e-communique, created a FaceBook page and am currently developing a YouTube channel for the FFAA. Additionally, I have assisted with technology at our headquarters. The Friendship News Page 10
