Descendants of James McGUIRE
Generation No. 1
1. JAMES1 MCGUIRE was born 1620 in Fermanagh, Ireland, and died 1682 in Fermanagh, Ireland. He
married CECILLA MCNAMANA 1658. She was born 1623 in Fermanagh, Ireland, and died 1665 in
Fermanagh, Ireland.
Notes for JAMES MCGUIRE:
Ireland is the background of the McGuires Family. About the year 1000, the County of Feremnaugyh
in Ireland was referred to as McGuire County, since nearly all of the inhabitants were McGuires.
A Station near Harrodsburg, Kentucky was know as McGee also as McGuire Station, and it was here
the McGuires settled when they reached Kentucky with the Boones and other hunters.
James McGuire and his wife, Elizabeth Pack McGuire, had children born in Ireland: upon hearing of
the opportunities here decided to move to the new world. Their oldest son, John, came to America
ahead of his parents, but he later returned to Ireland to marry his childhood sweetheart, Nancy
Holden, I have this listed later as information gleaned from other researchers.
I have some that have doubted the facts but this researcher tends to believe. and brought her to
this country. James and Elizabeth, upon arriving in America, settled in Greenbriar County,
Virginia. Soon afterwards they moved on to Kentucky and settled near Harrodsburg. This
James had a brother named John, one named Samuel or "Sam", and William, and two sisters whose
names are not known. The Revolutionary War enlisted James and he was killed at "Blue Licks"
battlefield August 19, 1782. The four sons of James and Elizabeth McGuire were: the John
mentioned above, who settled in Morgan County, on the Licking River, James II, William and
Archibald McGuire who all settled on the Kentucky River, in Lee County.
Hundreds of McGuires of the foothills Country trace their family background to the James McGuire
S., of Ireland. \\\\
Alma makes note of the following information to help dispel some of the doubts of our family
line. Alma says " Harlan told me about a year before he died, that his mother, Aunt Lousesa, told
him that our great, great grandfather John McGuire, was the son of James McGuire the Immigrant
from Ireland. This gives me confidence that the material is more accurate then some give it
credit for.
"Excerpt" from letter from Eric Passmore white.
Four brothers that came to America first are known as Samuel, who settled on the Big Sandy River,
in what is now extreme eastern Kentucky; James ancestor of all of the McGuires in this genealogy
the most part "SAP" who was killed in the battle of Blue Licks with his son Jessie, settled first
near McGee's Station, in what was then Fayette County; John, who with his seven sons, was killed
at the battle of Blue Licks. And William, who tradition says settled on the Kentucky river.
However, it is felt that he has been confused with James's son William and may be the William
McGuire named in the East Kentuckian.
Cornelius McGuire, mentioned in the same publication was apparently related to the above William.
This William also lived and enlisted in the Greenbrier River area where James came to Kentucky
from. James also named one of his sons Cornelius who was scalped by Indians. Also of interest
from another source, indicated were Samuel, James, John, and William, the same names listed in
the East Kentuckian, with the exception of Cornelius.\
James and his brothers already stated apparently came to Kentucky with Daniel Boone. At that time
it was part of Virginia. It was later made into Kentucky County of Virginia, in 1776. As Settlers
moved in they demanded that Kentucky be made into a state, which was done. It was first divided
into Three Counties of Fayette, Lincoln and Jefferson. The ancestry of the McGuires of what is
now Lee County, Kentucky may be found in the records of Owsley, Estill, Clay, Madison and
Rockcastle Counties.\
Further Histories
Kentucky Counties:
Kentucky was first a county of Virginia.
The Three counties were formed while still a part of Viginia:
Fayette
Lincoln
Jefferson
1786 Madison county was established from Lincoln County.
1793 Clark County was established from Fayette County.
1799 Jessamine County was established from Fayette County.
1807 Clay County was formed out of Madison County.
1809 Estill County was formed out of Clay and Madison Counties.
1839 Breathitt County was formed out of Clay and Estill Counties.
1843 Owsley County was formed out of Clay, Estill and Breathitt Counties.
1860 Magoffin County was formed out of Floyd, Johnson and Morgan Counties.
1870 Lee County was formed out of Breathett, Estill, Owsley and Wolfe counties.
The McGuires and MaGuires have lived near each other many times and obviously are the same
family. Many of the McGuires of Morgan, Greenup, Pike, Lawernce, and Elliot Counties came from
this John, 1756--1837, the oldest son of James; He also enlisted in the Revolutionary War in
1770. Records show that he was granted a pension from Morgan County as Revolutionary War Soldier
in 1834. James McGuire III, 1780-=1870 the oldest son of 1756-1837 Married Sarah Coffee.
Samuel Willey 1822-1891, who became the third County Judge of Magoffin County in 1870, was a son
of James III.\\\\\\
Old court records which we have studied and examined from Richmond in Madison County, Through the
foothills to Pike County, unfold the McGuire History bit by bit. These records include deeds
recorded, marriage License, census, and Land Grants extending from fifty to one hundred and fifty
years back across the history of the eastern section of Kentucky.
Descendants of She McGuires have the story here from Ireland to Kentucky. We wish details could
be interwoven in this chapter, but that is of course impossible. Many McGuires died following an
unpretentious life, this leaving little history of themselves. Like most families in this area
they never occupied high offices of honorm they did not often acquire great wealth, moreover many
of them were humble people whose life span was tied to the small community of their time.

Notes for LT. JAMES MCGUIRE:
James was a Rev. War American Patriot.
Lt. James was an early visitor to Boonesborough and his youngest son, Archibald was born in the
Fort. Under the command of Lt. Col. Daniel Boone he rode to the rescue of Bryants Station which
was under siege by more than 200 Indians and British Troops from Canada under the command of
Major Caldwell. Lt. McGuire and Pvt. Israel Boone were both killed in action on Aug. 19, 1782 at
the Battle of Blue Licks Springs. The British never returned to Kentucky and this was considered
the last battle of the revolutionary War on the western front. The Battle of Blue Licks is
commemorated annually.
It is believed that James McGuire came to the States after his son, but before the second trip of
John with his wife Nancy Holden and their newborn son, James. [ See note - John McGuire] It is
not known if Margaret Black/Elizabeth Pack is the mother of John. Margaret Black is the Mother of
the youngest son, Archibald.
James Felix McGuire's parents were in hiding in Dulin from the British authorities when he was
born. They were the ruling family in Fermanagh County and had opposed vigorously, British
domination.

"ADDITIONAL NOTES OF HISTORY IN ADDITION TO WHAT HAS ALREADY BEEN STATED ABOVE"
Excerpts from Bradford's "Notes on Kentucky"
Nov. 24, 1826\\
"The Blue Licks, remarkable for the sanguinary battle fought in its vicinity, is situated
about 40 miles from Lexington, and about 35 from Bryan's Station. The licking river at this place
is about 300 feet wide, at common water, and forms a semi ellipsis, which embraces on its N. E.
side, towards Limestone, a great ridge of rocks which had been made bare by the stamping of
Buffaloe and other game, drawn together from time immemorial, to drink the water and lick the
Clay.-- Two deep ravines, heading in this ridge near each other, and extending in opposite
directions, formed the longest diameter of this ellipsis. This ridge had very little timber on
it, and what it had was very indifferent, and exhibited a dreary appearance, but the ravines were
furnished not only plentifully with timber, but with thick brushwood also.
"Shortly after the Indians left Bryan's Station, the men at Lexington, Harrodsburgh, and
Boonesborough, assembled at this place, to the number of 160, and determined to pursue them
immediately--and on the 18th of August, Col. John Todd of Lexington, Colonel Stephen Trigg, took
the Command. Our family members Lt. John McGuire and his son were among this group of men, as
stated in the history notes above Lt. James and Daniel Boone's son Isaac Boone were killed the
following day. These men, well armed and accoutered, were skillful marksmen, and animated with an
ardent desire to chastise the insolence of these savage invaders of their settlements--Col. Boone
encouraged the expedition by his presence. This force was very small, compared with the number of
enemy; but so eager were they in the pursuit, that they could not be prevailed on to await the
arrival of Col. Logon, who was known to be collecting all the force at his station to join
them.\\
"It requires no strong effort of the imagination, to portray the affecting scene produced
by the departure of these brave men. The forebodings of the Mother--the misgivings of the
wife--the sighs of the parents--the solicitude and tears of congenial affection, strongly marked
the feelings of almost every individual.
"Every preparation having been made, the army commenced their march on the route the
Indians had taken, but had not proceeded more than nine or ten miles, before the lynx-eyed Boone
discovered Certain signs on their route indicating a willingness on the part of the Indians, that
they should be pursued, which was plainly evinced by their leaving a plain trail.
Notwithstanding, they evidently used every means in their power, to conceal their number, for
which purpose they marched in single file, treading in each others footsteps.
"After a very fatiguing march, this gallant band reached the South bank of Licking river,
at the Lower Blue Licks, without having seen single Indian. On the arrival of the front of the
party at the river, they discovered Indians on the ridge on the opposite side, who without
manifesting any symptoms of fear, retired leisurely over the hills out of their sight. Upon this
discovery, a halt was ordered, and a council of the principal officers held, in order to
determine the most prudent course to be pursued. In this critical moment, the age and great
experience of Col. Daniel Boone in Indian warfare, insensibly attracted the attention of every
one present, to solicit his advice at this perilous moment, to obtain which, Col. Todd addressed
Col. Boone as follows.
"Skilled in Indian warfare, and familiar with the ground in the vicinity of this place, we
require your opinion on the expediency of attacking the enemy in their present position." To
which Col. Boone replied: "I am of the opinion, and indeed fully persuaded, that the enemy
exceeded us in number fully three hundred--that their main body is at no great distance, and that
they are lying in ambush. Their position is equal to an host should we continue our march, and be
drawn in between the ravines they occupy.--I therefore advise, that we divide our gallant
band--that one half march up the river on this side and cross over at Elk creek, fall upon the
upper side of the ravine--whist the other half take a position co-operate with them in another
quarters. By this means the great advantage of their position will be changed effectually in our
favour. But, Gentlemen, "continued Boone, " whatever may be you ultimate decision, I caution
against crossing the river at any rate before spies have reconnoitered the ground."\
"A deep silence ensued, and the superior officers seemed to acquiesce in the salutary
advice of Colonel Boone, when Maj. Hugh M'Gary, remarkable for impetuosity of his temper,
exclaimed, "Delay is dastardly! Let all who are not cowards follow me, and I will show them the
Indians," so saying he spurred his horse toward into the river.
"The rashness of M'Gary was contagious. He was followed in quick succession by the whole
party, who crossed the river in great disorder and confusion, whilst the officers were
reluctantly bome along in the tumult. After crossing the river, not authority was exercised, nor
any order observed in the line of march, but every one rushed forward tumultuously pursuing the
road over the bare rocks, to the end to the ridge of the hills, where a forest of oaks, deep
ravines with underwood, concealed the enemy from view, who waited in their ambuscade to receive
them.
"M'Gary led the van of the army, closely followed by Major Harlan, and Capt. Wm. M'Bride,
supported by the men on horseback, when Girty, with a chosen part of his tawny host, rushed forth
from their covert, and with horrid shrieks and yells, attacked them with great impetuosity. The
conflict instantly became hot and sanguinary. The advantageous position occupied by the Indians,
enabled them to assail the whole of the whites at the same moment, and from the confused manner
in which the approach was made, soon turned their right wing, and a retreat was the inevitable
consequence, and that too, under the immediate edge of the tomahawk. Cols. Todd and Trigg, and
Maj. Harlan, fell early in the action, whilst many brave officers and men fell under them.
"I wonder if this could have been the time when our own LT. JAMES McGuire and Daniel Boones son
Isaac, died, at the or maybe later in the battles. History is not always kind to use with facts,
so we will not know for sure, but it is something to ponder."\\
"The survivors attempted to gain the river at the ford, some on foot and some on horse
back; But the Indians so managed, as to prevent a great part of them, by getting between them and
the ford, forcing them into the river below, where it could only be crossed by swimming. As most
of the fugitives aimed to gain the ford, the Indians pressed their principle force to that point,
where the greatest carnage took place, and where many where tomahawked in the river. It was at
this moment that Benjamin Netherland,* *"Major Netherland now living in Nicholasville." whose
personal bravery had by some been doubted, not only gave evidence to the contrary, by assuming
the office of a commander, called aloud to his flying companions, as they arrived on the South
side of the river, to HALT! and fire on the enemy; which order many obeyed, and thereby arrested
the pursuit for a few moments, which enabled many who were almost exhausted, to escape from the
hatchet suspended over their devoted heads.\\

SAME STORY DIFFERENT PERSECUTIVE----THIS OUR OWN FAMILY STORY
Blue Licks Springs Kentucky......The Last Frontier Battle of the Revolutionary War
"All Who Are Not Cowards- - - - Follow Me"
Nearly a year after the surrender of Lord Cornwallis at Yorktown, what has come to be known as
the last battle of the Revolutionary War in Kentucky was fought at the site of Blue Licks
Battlefield State Park on August 19, 1782 in what is now Robertson County.
Members of the Kentucky Militia, 182 strong gathered at Bryant's Station northwest of Lexington
to avenge an attack on that stronghold by British and Indian forces. For two days the British
laid seige to the fort, burned houses, cut down corn fields, killed livestock, and burned hemp in
the fields. After two days, Capt. William Caldwell, commander of the British and Indian forces,
ordered his troops to retreat.
The British troops followed a buffalo trace, a path through the wilderness beaten out by the
passing of buffalo, northeastward toward what are now the towns of Paris and Millerburg. They
crossed the Licking River at Blue Licks Ford and hid on the wooded hills overlooking the River.
Three groups of Kentucky Militia followed in hot pursuit, incensed by the destruction at Bryants
Station and ready for a fight.
The troops were under the command of Col. John Todd of Fayette County, Lieut. Col. Stephen Trigg
of Harrisburg and Lieut. Col. Daniel Boone of Boonesborough. But it was a lower ranking officer,
Major Hugh McGary, who played a critical, even fatal role in the outcome of the Battle of Blue
Licks.
While the Kentucky forces were gathered at Bryants Station, Maj. McGary urged the militia to wait
for reinforcements of Col. Benjamin Logan of Lincoln County. Apparently McGary was ridiculed by
the members of the members of the militia and accused of "timidity". This incident probably
caused McGary to later take an action which would affect the outcome of the Battle of Blue Licks.
The three Kentucky commanders decided to pursue the enemy, for they believed a delay of even one
day could give the British forces time to cross the Ohio River. Over heavily wooded hills, across
Elktown, Houston and Hinkston Creeks, throughout the steamy August day, the militia moved in
rapid pursuit of the enemy.
As the Kentuckians approached the Licking river northeast of Millersburg, they discovered the
British were making no effort to conceals their trail and were retreating at a leisurely pace.
When they reached the Blue Licks ford , there was some disagreement among the militia. Should the
troops cross the river at Blue Licks ford, should they wait for Col. Logan and his
reinforcements, or should they divide their forces in a flanking movement and cross the river in
different locations as Daniel Boone suggested? Disagreement reigned, Boone then advised delay. He
knew the terrain well. At Blue Licks ford, the Licking River makes a u-shaped bend around a hill.
At the crest of the hill were two wooded ravines filled with fallen timbers. Boone felt this
would be a perfect place for a ambush.
Just as Boone suspected, the hill overlooking the creek provided good cover for an ambush. The
main body of Indians his in and behind fallen trees. A few others remained standing on the hill
side along with British troops.
Maj. McGary, the story goes, still smarting from the accusations leveled at him at Bryants
Station, waved his rifle and yelled, "all who are not cowards...follow me"! Immediately men began
climbing into their saddles and wading into the river. All the commanders could do was follow
their men into the water. On the other side of the river, a semblance of order was attained. The
militia was divided into three abreast.
Trigg, who commanded the Harrodstown men the right flank. Todd and his Fayette men took the
center and Boone and the Boonesborough men the left flank. Some men dismounted and left their
horses standing with their reins flung over their necks. The Kentuckians reached the top of the
ridge and headed for the ravines where Boone expected the ambush. When they were about 60 yards
from the Indians, there was a volley of gunfire. Todd and 23 of his men in the center column were
either wounded or killed. McGary, who was with Todd's troops, survived the first round of fire.
Within several minutes, forty Kentuckians were down. Meanwhile, on the right flank, the Indians
had shot Trigg and his men began to yield ground. Only Boone's men were able to drive the enemy
back. His men did not realize what was happening to the other columns. When his troops did
realize the turn of the battle, there was a panic stricken rush to the river. In a frantic
effort, to control the troops and restore order Lt. James McGuire and Israel Boone, Daniel's son
were killed.
The battle of Blue Licks lasted only a few minutes and ended in defeat for the Kentuckians with
some of the most able leaders in the State dead. However, the British never returned, for they
learned that the Kentucky pioneers were serious about keeping their land.

Notes for JOHN MCGUIRE:
John McGuire was in the United States and returned to Ireland to marry his sweetheart. Nancy
Holden. Their first child James, was born in Ireland on January 10, 1780. In July of 1780. John
enlisted in the service of the United States as a Virginia Volunteer. He served two enlistments
and also served in the War of 1812. It is believed John and Nancy were married in Dublin [ it is
only hearsay] and that James was born there. John McGuire, Nancy Holden and their son James were
all born in Ireland. The three of them immigrated to the United States sometime between January
and July of 1780.
John joined the service July 20, 1780 under Captain Keller and Col. Benjamin Logan. He reinlisted
on Sept. 1 1780 under Captain Gordon who was later killed at Blue Lick Springs. He also served as
a Minuteman under Captain Ray and Col. Logan. He went on the expedition against the Indians on
the Miami following the Battle of Blue Lick Springs. He also was known for his outstanding work
for the American cause as an Indian spy until sometime in November of 1782, this after fighting
Indians with General George Rodgers Clark. They fought the Indians in the Picamay towns on the
Miami River in Ohio until October 1782. Many of this McGuire family fought in the Revolutionary
War and the Indian wars which followed it. Several were killed in service including James
McGuire, The father of John.
The Magoffin County Historical Society has taken on the project of seeing that a memorial marker
is set at the grave site of John McGuire, a Revolutionary War soldier. who is buried in Magoffin
County. He applied for Revolutionary War pension on the 19th of October 1832 at the age of 76 and
was placed on the roll [#31244] at $20.00 a year on Jan. 4th 1834.
"NOTES OF HISTORY IN ADDITION TO WHAT HAS ALREADY BEEN STATED.
Excerpts from Bradford's "Notes on Kentucky"
Nov. 17, 1826\\
"Bryan's station contained about forty cabins, built as to form a parallelogram of about
200 yards long and 50 yards wide, and where the houses did not join, the vacancy was filled up
with pickets. The angles were strengthened by blockhouses which answered the purpose of bastions.
"On the 15th day of August in the year 1782, this formidable savage army appeared in
hostile array before Bryan's station; the inhabitants immediately on the discovery of their
approach, closed the gates and made every preparation in their power to defend the place.
"Bryan's station or fort, five miles North East from Lexington, became the most exposed
point in Kentucky, after the destruction of Ruddle's and Martin's stations in the year 1780. The
death of William Bryan who died of a wound received near the mouth of Cane run, so discouraged
his friends that they returned to North Carolina, and the greater part of the population from
that state, left the fort about the same time, which would have so reduced the strength, as to
compel the remainder also to remove, if the fort had not acquired new strength in a number of
families from Virginia--Robert Johnson Exq. the father of the Hon. Richard M. Johnson, with
several families of his connections from the same section of Virginia, removed to Bryan's
station, and kept up the strength of the place at what it had been, if not greater than at any
former period.
"It has been stated that Bryan's station was at that time the most exposed of the
settlements in Kentucky, and that was to eascribed to the residence of the hostile tribes and the
guide they found in the Miami rivers on the north west side. and the Licking and Kentucky rivers
on the south east of the Ohio. The former served to pilot them to the shores of the Ohio, and the
latter served the same purpose to bring them to the vicinity of Bryan's station--Lexington,
Bryan's station, Boon's station, M'Gee's and Stroud's were the only places occupied on the north
side of the Kentucky river at the period of the formidable attack on Bryan's which was conducted
so secretly by Simon Girty and his brother James, that the fort was completely surrounded on the
night of the 15th of August 1782, while the men, women and children slept quietly, not dreaming
of danger until alarmed by the fire of the savages before sun rise, on those who first opened
their doors.
"The night before, news had been received that Capt. Holder with a party of men from
Mc'Gee's and Stroud's stations, had been defeated, and the greater part of the force from Bryan's
were preparing to march to that quarter, and if the Indians had delayed the fire one hour longer,
the fort would have been reduced to a mere handful, as the men were on the eve of departing.
The greater danger at home now called for united exertions of the whole country. Two men,
Nicholas Tomlinson and Thomas Bell, were mounted on good horses, and sent off at the first fire
to Lexington, on the way to Holder's assistance, on arriving there the force of that place had
gone to Boon's Station, on the way to Holder's assistance. Tomlinson and Bell followed and
overtook them at Boon's station, where a force of 16 mounted men and about 30 on foot immediately
started to the aid of the besieged fort,--The Indians agreeably to their mode of warfare,
attempted to take the fort by a stratagem of the following nature:-- It has already been stated,
that the fire commenced early in the morning, this firing was by a party of 100 Indians on the
south east side or angle of the fort, within pistol shot of the spring, from which the supply of
water was drawn.
"The former practice of this fort was known, and the Indians expected every man to run to
the spot where the firing commenced, which would leave it undefended on the side where the main
body lay; but the number of guns discharged, and the near approach of the party, convinced the
people of the fort that it was a plan to draw the men out, and instead of falling into this trap,
every man went to work in reparing the fort, which required picketing in several places, and the
women commenced suppling water from the very spring near the ambuscade of the enemy.--And
although the Indians lay so near the spring, the women ventured to it from the assurance, that
the enemy would remain concealed until the men from the fort fired on the party on the south east
side, which was perceived at one to be the plan; accordingly, when a sufficient quantity of water
was drawn the fort put in order and the men at their posts a party of 13 went out on the
direction of the first fire, and soon were convinced of the force of the enemy, by a fire from
about 100; and at that moment the ambuscade rushed on the fort, believing the men were engaged on
the other side. How they must have been disappointed to find every thing ready to receive them.
"A heavy well directed fire from the fort, put the savages to flight, a small body of the
most daring reached the fort, and set fire to a few houses and stables, which were consumed; but
the rest of the fort and the lives of the people were saved by an easterly wind, which drove the
flames from the houses. This defeat about two hours after the first fire in the morning, drove
the Indians to a respectful distance.
"The enemy, encamped on the bank of the creek where the road now crosses, convenient to the
spring, at a place out of sight of the fort.
"It was known to the savages that two men had been sent early in the morning on the
direction to Lexington, and they formed a party of about 300 of their best warriors at the upper
end of the lane leading to Lexington, to intercept the expected reinforcement, on the south east
side of the fort. On the right of the present road to Paris, grew a field of more than 100 Acres
of corn, through which the Indians passed and repassed from the encampment on the bank of the
creek to the party at the head of the lane, which was line for more than 100 yards by the enemy
on both sides, who commenced a fire unperceived at a few feet distance. It was believed the great
dust which was raised by the horses feet, in a considerable degree protected the party; they got
safe into the fort without the slightest wound on man or horse, but the party on foot were less
fortunate. They were approaching through the large corn field on the right and could have passed
into the fort unseen by the savages, but on hearing the firing at the head of the lane on their
comrades, they ran to their aid without reflecting that from the number of guns that the force
was an over match for them. When they reached the head of the lane, the mounted men were gone,
and the enemy were in great force between them and the fort augmenting every moment from the camp
on the bank of the creek. A sharp firing commenced, and nothing but the thickness of the corn
saved this party of 30 brave men from destruction; two only were killed and four wounded. The
white men separated & sought safety in flight and the force of their rifles. in many instances
where parties of 6 or 8 Indians were pursuing one man, they were kept off by knowledge of the
danger of approaching a man with a gun in his hand, supposed to be loaded. James Girty, with half
a dozen savage brethren, pushed on one of the white men so hard, that he fired, and Girty fell,
which stopped the rest of the party, and saved the man from certain death. Unfortunately for many
suffering victims who fell by the hands, or by the influence of this monster, he had bound to the
strap of his powder horn, a piece of leather, just stolen from the tan vatsm the folds of which
saved him-- and he only received a severe shock, which brought him to ground. Mr. John Sharp, the
father of the present jailor of Fayette, was of this party, and too infirm to make his escape, if
he had not been able to Keep the Indians in pursuit at bay, from fear of his rifle, until he
reached a thicket of cane.
"In the evening the cattle and stock attempted to return, as usual, to the fort, and were
mostly killed; the few sheep were totally destroyed.
"A little after sun set, Simon Girty approached under cover of a thick growth of hemp, to a
large stump of a tree, which stood about the spot where the dwelling house of Mr. Rogers now
stands, and hailed the fort--demanding a surrender, stating, that the forces were commanded by
him, and enquired if he was known to the people of the fort.--He declared that the prisoners
should be protected if they would surrender, which was out of his power if the place was taken by
storm, as it would be that night, on the arrival of his cannon and strong reinforcements, which
were hourly expected. This language from Girty, and the recollection by the people in the fort,
that cannon were employed in the reduction of Ruddle's and Martin's stations, was calculated to
create considerable alarm. It was so handsomely parried by Aaron Reynolds, a young man remarkable
for wit and sprightliness, that justice to this individual his name is mentioned, as it will be
hereafter, in a noble act at the battle of the Blue Licks, a few days after. Mr. Reynolds
observing the discouraging influence of Girty's lofty commanding address, took the liberty of
replying to him. In the first place Mr. Reynolds admitted the name of Girty was so well known,
and held in such detestation, that he had named a worthless dog after him. For his part, he felt
so little concern or apprehension from such an enemy, that he considered it disgraceful to use
fire-arms in repelling him, and should in the event of any of his party breaking into the fort,
resort to switches, which he had no doubt would be sufficient to drive the naked rascals from the
country. Girty took great offence at the levity and want of politeness of his adversary, and
pretended to deplore the consequences resulting from such obstinacy, and left his position very
quickly. During the night a small party was left to keep up occasional firing, but the main body
marched off in great haste to the lower Blue Licks, where a battle the most distressing that
Kentucky had ever witnessed, occurred in a few day's.
"In recapitulating the preceding attack, there are some very singular circumstances, worthy
of attention. The firing in the morning was in time to prevent the march of nearly all the men to
a distant point, & the enemy so far overrated their plan, that instead of drawing the men out,
every one prepared for a siege, and although there were more than one hundred guns discharged,
not a solitary person was touched, the singular circumstances of the wind springing up from the
east and saving the place from the flames; the fortunate passing out and return of Tomlinson and
Bell, the two expresses; and the passage of sixteen mounted men through a fire of several hundred
Indians unhurt--all these things are singular. There were 560 Indians and about 60 Canadians and
Tories, forming an army of more than 600, to fight 42 men. The whole number in the fort was 44
men, but two were sent off as expresses, and two were killed in the fort. The persons killed were
Mitchell and Athinson; and Tomlinson slightly wounded in the arm, after his return from the
express. The loss of the Indians was very considerable, but the precise number not known."
Nichole Tomlinson continued one of the most active defenders of this country, and was
employed in Harmer's expedition in 1790, as a spy--at the defeat of a detachment of the army
under Col. John Hardin, on the Oglaze, Tomlinson being in advance, was literally shot to pieces
by an ambuscade of more than one thousand Indians.

Notes for CORNELIUS NEIL MCGUIRE:
Some notes on Cornelius McGuire, according to Peggy Aston's research Cornelius was scalped by
Indians before 1782. That would mean he was not killed during the transgression on him. He is
reported not married until after this incident. There is some disagreement on the date of birth
but all in general time frame. He came to East Kentucky 1795 with a group from the Tazewell
County, Virginia area. Was appointed Justice of Peace Dec. 21 1799, when Floyd County was
created. Listed in Floyd County in 1820 and 1830. Tazewell County deeds list an 1805 land
