    Augusta Co. VA Records
    Chalkley
    Page 411.--13th August, 1771. John Berry's estate appraised by Joseph Culton, John Walker, John Stewart--Bonds of Hugh and Francis McClung; Wm. McGaughey, not solvent; Robert Farice, not solvent; Peter Cutwright, solvent; Robt. Buchanan, solvent.

    The earliest note for Hugh was that he went with two brothers, James and William to Augusta County, Virginia. They settled in the Timber Ridge community which was later incorporated into Rockbridge County. Apparently Hugh, with some sons, moved over the mountains into an area that later became Tennessee after being the State of Franklin in 1784-5 with John Sevier as governor. Congress debated this petition and then turned it down. Tennessee did not become a state until 1790. It was during the time that the settlers considered themselves as part of the State of Franklin, that Hugh wrote his will. It is interesting that the will is now on file in Greene County, TN.

    Hugh and John were listed in the 1783 tax list for Greene County. This consecutive listing gave Robt Campbell, James Kerr, Jno McClung, Hugh McClung, Jno. Mitchell, and Wm. Wilson. Both Hugh and John were taxed for 200 acres.

    By 1 Nov 1786, Hugh purchased 800 acres in Greene Co.: north side of Tennessee River below the mouth of the Highwassa (sic) River for 10 pounds per 100 acres.

    Hugh, Sr. wrote his will just as he was acquiring land. The land was listed in the N.C. Land Grants. It was applied for several years before the grant was finalized. We know this because in 1783 John Hacket purchased 253 acres "being the second small bottom before McClung's 800 acre entry". Hugh's entry wasn't registered until 1786. At any rate, Hugh may have been making his will, not because he was in ill health but as a precaution as the owner of this large tract of land. The land records in Greene County, TN need to be searched to ascertain the disposition of this land. It was willed to the grandson, John Gibson. We do not know the reason for this but the record would need to be tracked through John Gibson.


    Hugh McClung's will is on record in Greene County Tennessee for 21 Oct 1786. He registered it in the State of Franklin which was never recognized by Congress. In it he names his wife, Elizabeth, a son, whose name could not be read with certainty, and three daughters: Sarah, Elizabeth, and Susannah. He also names a grandson, John Gibson. The executors of the estate were wife, Elizabeth and Alexander Wilson. Witnessed by Andrew Martin, Alexander Wilson and John Wilson.

    Hugh married Elizabeth. [Group Sheet]

    Notes:

    James McClung was one of the Early Settlers of Augusta Co. VA.

    He moved to the "Borden Grant" in Augusta (now Rockbridge) county, VA and settled on a farm on the east bank of South River, three miles east of Fairfield. He erected his home in a narrow glen between the river and the mountain and about midway between the Little Mary and Big Mary Creeks. The original house was burned but his neighbors assembled and built another for him and had it ready for occupancy within a week. This building, "Mary Glenn" is still standing.

    James McClung was a soldier in the Revolutionary War, and for his services received grants of land in Kanawha County, VA (now WV) and in Kentucky.

    James married Ann Gray and they had fourteen children. His will is on record in Lexington, VA.
