        THE JONATHAN OGDENS COME TO VIRGINIA

        "In about the mid and late 1700s, the town of Port Tobacco, Maryland was a thriving community of people building new lives for themselves.  The area was a world of beautiful plantations from which products, particularly tobacco,

were shipped out via the Port Tobacco River to England.  Returning ships brought back not only necessities, but also "fancies" to be enjoyed.  This was early America's Port Tobacco, a happy and prosperous community.

        Living in this beautiful land was the family of one Jonathan Ogden,

consisting of Jonathan, his wife Anne, who had been born and raised at Howell's Delight, one of the fine plantations in the area, and their ten children: Tabitha, William R., Mary, Sarah, Samuel, Nathan, Susannah, Nancy Ann and Elizabeth.  Life was good.

        But years bring change and so they did to Port Tobacco.  First, the

Revolutionary War, then and probably even more damaging, the river which had

been the life blood of the community, began to silt badly, making transportation and shipping almost impossible.  Without the river, times declined, causing many to leave the area.  Thus, the story of the Ogden family.

        In the late 1790s, William, Jonathan's oldest son, joined a party of

immigrants and crossed the Allegheny Mountains into Virginia.  The land

looked inviting, the soil was rich, and water and timber were plentiful.  No

question -- this would be their new home.  After a year or so, William returned to Port Tobacco, hoping to convince his family to join him.  With one exception, Samuel, all agreed.  The Jonathan Ogden family was on its way.

        Definite dates are unknown.  However, on 9 Feb. 1804 an "Indenture was drawn up granting Jonathan and Thomas a certain parcel of land, the description of which is very interesting.  For a consideration of $100.00 they were granted a parcel of land in the County of Harrison, State of Virginia. Boundaries

were the West Fork River, and others described in words, such as: "Beginning

at a Mulberry tree", "86 poles to a chestnut," "24 poles to the mouth of the

run," etc.  It would contain 100 acres, "together with all privileges and commodities thereto belonging or in any wise appertaining with all its appurtenances."

        The last paragraph was very clear -- 'To have and to hold the said tract or parcel of land with all its appurtenances unto the said Jonathan Ogden and

Thomas Ogden and their heirs and assigns forever."

        Jonathan died in 1807 and was buried in a private cemetery close to the house in which they lived.  Anne continued to live until 1825 and is buried at

Jonathan's side.

        The Jonathan Ogdens planted their roots deep into the Virginia soil and since that time many descendants have taken their places and carried out their

responsibilities in the affairs of community and state.  They helped this new

country grow into what, in 1863, was to become the 35th state of the Union -- "

Notes for WILLIAM RHODY OGDEN:

Ella K. Barnard, Descendants of William and Mary Maltby,  (Baltimore, 1909.  Press of The Garnman Printing Co. , Carlisle, PA.  Copyright 1909), "Electronic," Page 82

     ""My grandfather moved away before my recollection and my father died when I was eleven years old so I never learned much about my ancestors. My father was not a church member and what religious belief he held I do not know. None of my father's family ever held slaves, that I know of. My mother's family did, but her father, my grandfather, was an abolitionist and never sold any slaves and freed 36, all he had, before his death (1851). All his children were brought up to believe that slavery was wrong in principle and he and some of his children suffered persecution on account of his belief on the question."

     "All my relations on both sides were Union people during the War of the Rebellion. I and two brothers were in the Federal Army, and my other brother, Benjamin, he was a Deputy U. S. Marshall."
