Jacob Lumpkin was born 1644 in England.

In 1677 he was a Captain and in 1678 he was in the service for 5 months.
In 1690 in court held on Sept 29, in New Kent, charges of Jacobitism in
Virgina were brought against Jacob Lumpkin. Capt. Lumpkin still
retained old loyalty to the Stuarts. (Virginia Magazine, VI; 389-396)

Resided in King and Queen County, Virginia, settling there in 1682.
"Newington" on the Mattaponi River was the original home of the Lumpkin
Family. It contained about 1000 acres.

In 1704 the Virginia Quit-Rent Rolls of King and Queen County contained
the name of Jacob Lumpkin, and credited him with 950 acres at that time.

He died 14, Sept 1708 at "Newington", King and Queen County, Virginia.
Lower St. Stephen Church, now Mattaponi Baptist Church. Near the north
door of the "Mattapony Church" lies a marble slab inscribed:

JACOB LUMPKIN
Obit 14 die September 1708, Aetatis 64
Dux Militum, Victor Hostium
Morte Victus. Pax adsit, vives requias
Eterna Sepultis.

Transulated this reads:
"A leader of soldiers; Conqueror of the enemy; Conquered by death.
May peace be with him; you shall live, eternal rest for the buried."

William Elliott was born on November 10, 1822 in Ray County, Missouri
to Willis Willard Elliott and Mary Polly Vanderpool both originally from
North Carolina. They lived on small plantations where they grew tobacco
and possibly cotton in Ray, Buchanan, and Nodaway Counties in Missouri.

William Elliott married Jane Carnes Guthrie, widow Howard, daughter of
James Guthrie and Margaret Phillips, on April 12, 1842 in Buchanan County,
Missouri. She brought a couple children with her to their marriage, Mary
and John Finley Howard. To the couple were born 8 more children: Margaret
Susan in 1843; James Willis(William) in 1844; Tilitha Jane in 1846; Abigail
Delilah in 1849; Pernita Morrow in 1850; Serena Ellen in 1852; Phoebe A
in 1854; and Martin VanBuren Rhodes Elliott in 1856.

The family made their home in Marshall, Buchanan, and Nodaway Counties
in Missouri. While living in Nodaway County, along with his father and brothers
joined the Confederate side of the Civil War in 1861. First they joined with the
Missouri State Guard Company A, 5th Regiment, 5th Division Cavalry then on
January 29th, 1862 into Company B, 3rd Missouri Battalion Cavalry.

They fought in the Battles of Blue Mills, Lexington, Sugar Creek, Elkhorn, and
Farmington together. Then William was discharged at Camp Sand Hill,
Mississippi, then rejoined at the Battle of Lone Jack, Missouri where he was
killed. He was killed at some time during the battle circa August 15-17, 1862
on the battlefield.

Word of William Elliott's death being at the Battle of Lone Jack (Oak), Missouri
was carried to his widow, children, mother, and siblings back home and eventually
the news of his death made it to the ears of his father and brothers in the war.

His widow, Jane never got to say goodbye to her dear husband. William Elliott
doesn't even have the honor of having a tombstone as a memorial.

To escape bushwhackers, the family back home in Nodaway County eventually
were forced to take refuge in Nebraska. William's blind uncle John Elliott had been
shot by Bloody Bill Anderson's Raiders while standing in his doorway. William's
brother Jeremiah was killed at the Battle of Corinth in Mississippi.

The remainder of the family moved to Oregon in 1867 after they earned enough
money after the Civil War was over to escape reconstruction and be near
relatives to start anew.

Henry Branson Elliott (11 Sept. 1805- 14 Jan. 1863) was one of the most progressive figures in antebellum Randolph County. His father Benjamin Elliott (1781- 27 Feb. 1842) had been Clerk of Superior Court and the commanding Lt. Colonel of the enrolled militia.

Elliott graduated from UNC Chapel Hill in 1826 and did post-graduate work at Princeton (Mrs. Laura Worth, History of Central Hotel, August 1940).

The Raleigh Register noted on March 14, 1837 that “Messrs. Elliott, Horney and others have been for some time actively engaged in erecting a Cotton Factory at the Cedar Falls on Deep River… we understand they are making rapid progress, and likely to get the machinery into complete operation some time during the prssent spring.”

By mid-June the 500-spindle factory was making “superior quality cotton yarn” for sale to hand weavers. (Southern Citizen, 17 June 1837).

In November 1838 the Elliotts purchased the ownership interest of the Horneys, who had invested in the factory in Franklinsville (Deed Book 22, Page 89), and in December of that year they sold a one-quarter interest to Alfred H. Marsh, an Asheboro merchant, and their son- and brother-in-law. Elliott was elected to a term in the state Senate in 1833, and campaigned across the state in favor of the first public school referendum in 1839.

He served as Clerk and Master in Equity in 1841 while Jonathan Worth campaigned for Congress, and in 1842 was elected to replace Worth in the state Senate. In the Senate Elliott, served as chairman of the committee on the State Library, and of the committee “on the subject of a state Penitentiary,” a state-funded prison which was proposed as a progressive alternative to the stocks, pillories, and whipping post.

Of his service in the Raleigh Register noted that “Mr. Elliott, of Randolph, is one of those industrious, hard-working members, who, though qualified to shine in debate, seldom occupies the time of the house in displays of that kind, but is content to pursue the even tenor of his way, in discharging the not less useful, but less attractive, duties of a thorough business committeeman.” (Greensboro Patriot, 18 Jan. 1845, quoting Raleigh Register).

Elliott continued to own and operate the Cedar Falls factory until a series of financial reverses in the 1850s. He moved his family to Missouri in 1859, and in the census of 1860, his occupation is listed as “Tobacconist.”
