The story below has Jacob in the war of 1812 and from Maryland, this does not agree with the census informaiton, so I've added a Jacob father...
THE PENINSULA CEMETERYWhen the city of Wheeling granted the Hempfield Railroad Company the right of way through the city, together with situations for its depots, terminus. etc., it became necessary to remove the cemetery. This removal was also necessitated from other motives; the cemetery was almost in the midst of a populous and growing city, it obstructed the progress of streets, and it was an eye-sore to many of the public spirited and progressive citizens, besides it was already full of bodies, so in 1850 the city council appointed a committee consisting of Dr. A. S. Todd, chairman, George Forbes, Alexander Hadden, J. M. Ewing and Thomas G. Culbertson to purchase a site for a new city cemetery and to remove the old one. It was at first intended by the committee to purchase grounds at what is now Leatherwood, and negotiations were carried on with reference to carrying out this intention, but it was then the objections were raised that the distance was too great from the city, and the Peninsula grounds,
consisting of 21 acres and a fraction over, was purchased from the late Daniel Steenrod in 1851, at a cost of $400 an acre, a fabulous price in those days. An Englishman named Pratt laid out the grounds, and the work of removing at once began. All those who had friends removed them, either to Mount Wood, the Peninsula or the Catholic cemetery at Manchester, and the committee made a contract with Jacob Amick to grade down six feet deep across the Hempfield cemetery and remove the bones to the Peninsula cemetery, which contract was faithfully performed, and the dust of hundreds of unknown ones removed to the southwestern corner of the new purchase. The gravestones were all removed and placed in position on the new graves as carefully as possible.

http://www.webroots.org/library/usahist/wcaoc010.htmlThere are but few of the old citizens who cannot recall the tenements of Jacob Amick, who for many years was the street commissioner of the city, but who at the era of which we write was engaged in the manufacture of brick and also in dealing in ice, with a yard immediately in front of his residence and an ice house at the north end of the first lot east of Fifth (now Eoff) street, his dwelling being located about the middle of the lot eastward of that.

J. W. AMICK
J. W. Amick, of the extensive wholesale and retail boot and shoe
establishment of J. W. Amick & Co., Wheeling, is a son of M. W.
Amick, now retired, who was one of the prominent citizens of Wheeling
during his active career. The latter is the son of Jacob Amick, a
pioneer of this city, who was born in Baltimore, Md., in 1790. He
served in the war of 1812, and in 1815, became one of the pioneers of
the city of Wheeling. He engaged in brick manufacture, and was also
for many years one of the leading ice dealers, becoming quite
prominent and well-known. He died May 24, 1858, and his widow,
Elizabeth Withro, to whom he was married at Mt. Pleasant, Ohio, died
in December, 1864. Seven children were born to them, of whom four,
one son and three daughters, survive. M. W. Amick, the surviving
son, was born at Wheeling in 1832. He succeeded his father in the ice
business and continued the same until 1870, when he retired from that
and all other active business. He was married in 1857, to Laura H.
Maybury, daughter of Rev. W. R. Maybury, one of the first Baptist
ministers of the city. The latter, a native of Baltimore, born in
1812, died at Wheeling, March 23, 1871, and his wife died January 24,
1872, in the fifty-fourth year of her age. Of their seven children
children, two daughters and one son survive. J. W. Amick, with
mention of whom this sketch began, is one of the leading young
merchants of Wheeling. His establishment at Nos. 1143 and 1145 Main
street, is the leading wholesale and retail boot and shoe house in
the city. The retail department occupies one floor of one of the
buildings, and the wholesale department the basement floor of one,
and the second and third floors of both. Seven salesmen are usually
employed in the store, and three agents are kept upon the road. Mr.
Amick was born in this city March 4, 1858, and was reared and
educated in the city. In 1871 he began his connection with the boot
and shoe trade as a clerk, and four years later he formed a
partnership with W. H. Foster, under the name of Foster & Amick, and
they successfully conducted the establishment until 1880, when Mr.
Amick became the proprietor by purchase of the whole business. This
he conducted alone until January 1, 1887, when Harry L. Bond, his
brother-in-law, was admitted as a partner, and the firm of J. W.
Amick & Co., was formed. The business hitherto had been exclusively
retail, but the new firm added the wholesale department at once. Mr.
Amick is an active member of the Baptist church of Wheeling, and
superintendent of its Sunday-school. He devotes much attention to
the welfare of the Y.M.C.A., of which he is vice president.

Tunis WAYNE was born 1759 in Rockingham Co., VA. He died 1851 in Calhoun Co., VA. Tunis married Catherine PROPST on 1789 in Rockingham, Co., VA.
We first find the family of Wayne (sometimes written as Wain, McIlwain, Mucklewaine), in Rockingham County, Virginia. Tunis was born there between 1759 and 1773. His Revolutionary War record says he was born in 1759; the 1850 census indicates he was born between 1760 and 1770; and his gravestone says he was born in 1773. This discrepancy in dates is not unusual--the lack of accurate records have left many people not knowing the exact date on which they were born. In any event, it is interesting to note at this point that our great-grandfather was old enough to fight in the Revolutionary War. This strikes us as being very unusual in the present-day generation.
Tunis fought in the Revolution from Pendleton County, Virginia as an Indian spy. How much spying he actually did is a question that no one can answer. Most of the younger boys at that time fought and tracked Indians. He later drew a pension for his Revolutionary service, but after two years it was taken away. Application for his pension was made in Kanawha County, Virginia (WV).
Tunis married Catherine Propst between 1792 and 1794, and around 1810, he moved to Holly River, Webster County, W. Va., which was at that time Randolph County, Virginia. He brought at least three children with him, the rest were born in Webster County. They crossed the *Elk River in a canoe and came into the Applachian wilderness to make a new home. From the "History and Folklore of Webster County" we find that "George McElwain, son of Tunice McElwain, accompanied his father from Pendleton County to the Holly River about 1810. Returning to Pendleton to drive their stock through, he arrived there at the outbreak of the Second War with England and entered the American Army. When months and years passed without his return, his family decided he had met with misfortune by encountering Indians or wild animals and mourned for him as dead. He did not rejoin his family until the end of the war.
