John Hicks that died in 1748 only named his son, David, in the will, however, John Hicks that died in 1772, was the brother of this David, and all of this group of Hicks remained in close proximity.521 The will of John Hix, 1748, of Goochland was made Dec. 9, 1747 and probated May 17, 1748. He named his wife Elizabeth and to his son David, at the wife's death, the land and the rest of the estate was divided among all his children  his wife's children and a grandson, James Johnson Hix. The executor was a son, Thomas Jolly Hix. [Children not named]

 The witnesses were Isaac Johnson, James Turner, and Henry Turner.522 Members of family owned and dealt in land in Louisa County. The inventory of John Hix, dec'd, was valued at L 38/6/7 by Thos.

John Hicks, 1745/54 - bef 1830


There are volumes of research regarding the Hicks family and some disagreements as to the earliest ancestors. Probably the most valuable information comes from the book, "The Hicks Family of East Tennessee" by Evan Hicks and also newspaper articles published in the Madisonville Democrat from 1921-1922 by Charles Wesley Hicks. It is these two resources that are relied upon here to give a brief glimpse into the the ancestry of the Hicks family. Most of the research agrees that the Hicks line were originally from England, settled first in Maryland, then in Virginia, and then in TN. Legend has it that three Hicks brothers bearing the unusual names of SHADRACH, Meshach, and Abednego moved from VA and settled in TN around 1782. The source of these names is the Book of Daniel which presents them as three Hebrew youths who refused to worship the golden image set up by King Nebuchadnezzer. For refusing to obey, they were cast into a fiery furnace, but God delivered them unharmed.

JOHN was born in Maryland and married COMFORT MALONE (1730/55 - before 1830) around 1771. They later moved to VA. JOHN served in the Revolutionary War with the 4th Battalion, 3rd Regiment from 1781-1783. It was probably in 1790 that JOHN, COMFORT, and their children moved into the newly opened TN territory and settled in a log cabin along Boyd's Creek. Their cabin was not far from McGaughey's Station, a refuge consisting of a stockade and fort. indian raids were frequent, and families often sought refuge there. COMFORT tells of being in the fort on one occasion when all had gathered for protection. Because of the small number of men to make a defense, they feared the impending atttack of the Indians. It became a question of whether they should remain in the fort and fight or leave and try to hide in the woods. An old Quaker woman spoke up and said, "If we be in the woods and they be in the woods, they be sure to find us." They all decided to stay in the fort and, fortunately, the Indians decided not to attack. JOHN and COMFORT had nine sons: Abendego, Meshach, Isaac b. 1772, SHADRACH b. 1775, John, Abraham Russell b. abt 1781, Charles B. b. 1783, George M. b. 1788, William b 1791; one daughter, Sarah b. 1795.

SHADRACH HICKS 1775-1846

Shadrach was probably named after his grandfather. He preferred to be called by his nickname, "Shade." This SHADRACH was your 6 X great grandfather on the Hicks side. He was born in VA, but moved to TN with his family as a young man. He married ELIZABETH "BETSY" NASH, your 6 X great grandmother. Unfortunately, not much is know about the NASH family, so no further information will be included here, although she is always given the honor and respect due to our grandmothers. SHADRACH and BETSY eventually settled near Madisonville TN and spent the rest of their lives there.SHADRACH was a shoemaker by trade. SHADRACH and BETSY had seven sons: John, Meredith b 1804, George b. 1805, Talbert b 1808, Garrett b. 1810, Isaac b. 1813, Lorenze Douthart; two daughters: RUTHA JANE b. 1799, Sarah b. 1795

Charles Briggs Hathaway - 1991
HERODIAS LONG was born somewhere in England about the year 1623. Several years later her father died, and her mother brought her to London where, in March 1637 at the age of 13 or 14, she was married to John Hicks.

Fissures in the Rock: New England in the Seventeenth Century

Richard Archer - 2001
When her father died, Herodias Long's world changed quickly and forever. ... at home, her mother sent her bereaved daughter to London, where at Saint Faith's, the underchapel of Saint Paul's, she married John Hicks on 14 March 1637.


(first husband, surname Hicks): Hannah, Thomas;

First marriage: John Hicks
William Coddington's 1644 account of the separation of Herodias from John Hicks

Herodias Long was born in England about 1623, but her place of nativity is not known. One possibility for her place of origin is Somersetshire, where in early 1639 John Aylesford, who owned land in Little Ockenbury, and in the Barbadoes, left a legacy of five pounds to Odias Long.[1] According to her testimony in court many years later, she was sent to London following the death of her father, and here, unknown to her friends, she married John Hicks.[2] She was 13 or 14 years old when they were married at Saint Faith's Church ("under Saint Paul's"), and their marriage licence was dated 14 March 1636/7.[3] Shortly after their marriage, to her "great grief," they immigrated to New England, and settled in Weymouth in the Massachusetts Bay Colony.[4] Here they lived until about 1640, when they moved to Aquidneck Island, probably settling in the town of Newport. They had two children together, but soon after moving to Rhode Island differences arose between them, and Herodias separated from Hicks, and consummated a relationship with George Gardiner, with whom she lived for the next 20 years as his common law wife. Hicks went off to live with the Dutch, and was in the process of obtaining a divorce from her in Rhode Island in December 1643, when he sent a letter from Flushing, New Netherland to Rhode Island magistrate John Coggeshall.[5] Hicks also eventually obtained a divorce from her in New Netherland, charging her with adultery.[5]

It appears that Herodias had been in an abusive relationship, based on a 7 March 1644 court case where John Hicks of Newport was "bound to the Peace by the Governor [sic], Mr. Easton, in a bond, for beating his wife Harwood Hicks..."[4] (Easton was actually an Assistant, not the Governor.) In her later testimony, Herodias states "...that the authority that was then under grace, saw cause to part us, and ordered that I should have the estate which was sent me by my mother, delivered to me by the said John Hickes; but I never had it, but the said John Hickes went away to the Dutch, and carried away with him the most of my estate; by which means I was put to great hardship and straight."[4] In his letter to Coggeshall, dated 12 December 1644, John Hicks wrote, "...the Knott of affection on her part have been untied long since, and her whoredome have freed my conscience on the other part, so I leave myself to yor advice if there may be such a way used for the finall parting for us."[6]

n the early 1670s Porter made large conveyances of his Pettaquamscutt lands to the Gardiner children of Herodias, and also made a conveyance to Herodias' son Thomas Hicks of Flushing, New York.[12]

Your Question, was there two John Hicks?, well there were
more than two in the area as you probably know. To sort them
out is hard to do, but here is my opinion.
The John Hicks who married Elizabeth Brown had son John
Jr, as recorded on the 1809 and later tax lists. John Sr
moved on, and the John Jr shown beside him in Hawkins in
1840 is grandson John, son of William.
There is a third John Hicks on the Russell list of 1814
which may be a son of Claiborn, I don't know. As for proof,
no, I don't have any.
It turns out that the two John Hicks that I am looking
for are not these, so I did not dig deeper. Larry

Hi Larry,
I have also thought that as well, but I'm looking for someone who has proof that John had the two marriages. Also, I looking for someone who know about Elizabeth Brown's family.


My notes on John Hicks: (have to determine if all of this information is for the same John Hicks or were there two?):

1776 - When John was seventeen, Apr 1776, John lived in Cumberland Co. about half a mile from the "Greenbreer Creek Church". There he enlisted in the Second Va. Regiment, recruited by Sergeant Ben Johnson. John's brother, Henry, had already joined the same Regiment and was doing garrison duty at Williamsburg, the capital.

1777 - Both brothers, John and Henry, were discharged and made their way to Botetourt County (Note: It may be that they went there because they had close relatives in the area, specially, the family of Lucy Hix Tilman(RIN 7447) ) Formed in 1769 from Augusta, Botetourt orginally encompassed virtually all of far southwestern Va.

1777 - Oct John joined a militia coompany being formed by Capt. Howland under Col. Wm. Breckenridge in John Slaughter's battalion which later became part of the famous "Illinois Regiment" established by the Va. Legislature under the command of Colonel George Rogers Clark (brother of William Clark of the Lewis and Clark Expedition sent to the Pacific Coast by President Thomas Jefferson). George R. Clark came from southwest Va. but lived in Ky. at the time. Authorized by Patric Henry, then Gov. of Va., Clark began raising troops along the Va. frontier even before the Legislature had a chance to act.

With his company, John marched to the juncture of the Tennessee and Ohio Rivers to join up with the main body of Clark's expedition -- but Clark remained at Pittsburg and Louisville until the late spring of 1778. John, and his fellow toopers from the Va. Frontier, lost patience and returned to their homes. These militiamen, believing that they were recruited only to establish forts along the Ohio River and the Mississippi, simply left their encampments when they learned that their mission was one of combat, i.e., to "reduce the British forts at Kaskasia and at Kahokia" (both in present-day Illinois).

John returned to southwestern Va. (probably the area of Botetourt/Montgomery County) and in 1779 enlisted again, this time under Capt. John Stevenson and served at Seven Mile Fork of the Holston River in Va., guarding against Indian attack. He also served at Pepper Station on the New River in what is now Montgomery Co., Va., and then in the Powell River valley. John's brother, Nathaniel, was then living in the Powell and/or Clinch River Valley.

John was discharged by Capt. McNally on Dec. 9, 1779 at the Blackamore Fort on the Clinch River in Va.

After the Revolution, John returned to the Montgomery County area on the New River and lived in Virginia (at various places?) for about 25 years, altogether. He lived for a time (unspecified) at a place in North Carolina which he described as the head of the Yadkin", probably Caldwell or Wilkes County (the same area where his brother (?) lived, according to the U.S. Census, in 1790). Then he moved to eastern Tennessee around 1814 and lived near his son William in Hawkins County for 16 years.

In 1830, he went to Washington County, Indiana, to visit his grandchildren living there among other families of the Watauga and Holston River areas (NOTE: Washing Co., Indiana was established for Bounty Land Grants to veterans of the "Illinois Regiment", Commanded by Gen. George Rogers Clark).

John's grandchildren in Washington Co., Ind. included Nathaniel Hicks, born in Hawkins Co., Tn. in 1813; Nathaniel's wife, Elizabeth, born in Tn. in 1818; and his children all born in Indiana and a Mary Finn who was born in Virginia in 1794
