SAMUEL PACK 1760-1833

In England this name is historic. One of the Packs was in the Long Parliament. Another was one of Wellington's generals. Samuel wandered into this region from Tidewater Virginia, and in 1763 was trapping with Swope and Pitman on New River.

A son was Samuel, Jr. (1760-1833) (Mary Farley), who settled on that stream. The Packs were large slaveholders and owned much New River bottom from the mouth of the Greenbrier up to and around the mouth of Bluestone.

Anderson and Loammi owned a large body of land on Brush in
the vicinity of Cashmere. The latter was a zealous methodist, and built and did very much to maintain the Pack church. The wife of President Hayes was a daughter of Jennie Pack Morris. While Hayes was in this region as a general in the Fedral army he recognized Captain John A. Pack as a relative and gave him the freedom of his camp at Raleigh C. H. After the death of Anderson, his sons moved to Kansas and Oklahoma. Since then the name is locally extinct in the line of Loammi.

-------------------------
My wife's family papers show that Virginia Jane Pack, who married a Morris, was her ancestor. We have family letters to prove that. Often we read that the wife of Hayes was Jennie Pack, but all the bios say she was Maria Cook Webb NOT Jennie Pack Morris. Jim Eydmann
