THE DESCENDANTS OF MARTIN LOY
OF GREAT ALAMANCE CREEK, NORTH CAROLINA
FIRST GENERATION: THE FOUNDER OF THE LINE.
1 - Martin Loy
The exact place and date of Martin Loy's birth is unknown.
He was born without doubt, somewhere near Heidelberg in the Rheinpfels,
or Rhenish Palatinate. The date of his birth may be set approximately
between 1700 and 1720. In the absence of any record as to these facts, we
must content ourselves with such an estimate. At the time of his
approaching death in the year 1777, when he executed his will he was
"very sick and weak," doubtless from the infirmities of age. He was
certainly over sixteen years of age when he arrived in America in 1741,
for the names only of males over sixteen were registered in Philadelphia,
so he must have been born prior to 1725. If, as has been assumed, it was
the infirmity of years that took him away, he must have been, say sixty
years old at the time of his death in 1777, and that would connote his
birth prior to 1717. two of his children had not been married and were
living at home with parents: They may have been born while he was in
his forties, or even fifties.
A Martin Loy arrived at Philadelphia on the Ship St. Mark on
26 September 1741, as recorded in Rupp's List, P.147. (the name is
spelled Leey, just as it was on the ship registeres. Probably the variant
spelling is due to the error of some clerk, who mistook the double loop
of the "o" for the two e's.) In the German script of later church-
records, however, the name is spelled Loy.)
We do not know what his course was during the years between
his landing at philadelphia in 1741 and his appearance in Augusta County
Virginia, in 1753. We shall probably never determine exactly what he did
or where he was engaged at farming somewhere in Pennsylvania, like so
many other Palatine immigrants. Of the group of his North Corolina home,
Miss B. W. Stookard(The History of Alamace, 1900: P. 80) says, "These
immigrants were mostly from countries of Schuylkill and Berks
Pennsylvania, and from Maryland'; and persistant family tradition has it
that our ancestors came through Pennsylvania.
Our information concerning his stay in Augusta County,
Virginia, came quiet unexpectedly and solicited so very recently, that it
may be hoped that later careful research by interested members of our
family may discover some Clue to his earlier movements.
We are deeply indebted to the Honaroble Boutwell Dunlap,
honorary consul of the Argentine Republic at San Francisca, who while
engaged in preparing some notes on the Valley of Virginia families made
very important discoveries concerning our people, and has most generously
communicated to us (23 March 1922) the following items of information:
In the settlement of Colonel James Patton's estate, 17
February 1758, it is shown that the estate held joint bond of Ernest
Sharp, John Sharp and Martin Loy, dated 15 February 1753, in Augusta
County, Virginia.
On 2 February 1754, Colonel Patton (the somewhat noted
historical character) who was surveyor for the Loyal Company of Virginia
deeded to Martin Loy 230 acres on Tom's Creek, corner of George Sharp. He
was near to Harness (sic) Sharp. All these were in Augusta County,
Virginia.
Martin Loy disappears from records at this time, but he
seems to make payment for land purchased in 1765 by a Stephen Loy in
Agusta County, Virginia.
A large number of the people in the vicinity of Martin Loy
moved from Augusta County to the Carolinas about the time Martin Loy's
and Sharp's names disappear from the records. For this reason, I feel
sure that your Martin Loy, Sharp, etc., are identical with this Martin
Loy, of Augusta County, Virginia. Many of the Pennsylvania immigrants
thus stopped over for several years on the Virginia frontier.
As to his wife's origin and family name, there is no clue.
Whether she was an old-country woman who came as Martin's wife to this
land of promise, whether she came as a small child with her parents to
America, or whether she was born of some family already established in
Pennsylvania, probably will never be determined absolutely. All that we
know of her is her given name, Catherina( spelled "Catheriney" by the
scribe who drew up Martin's will in latter's son Martin was born in 1775,
so we may safely assume that she was married to the first Martin either
in Pennsylvania or back in the old country. Some Loy with a better nose
for antiquarian investigation may be able yet to determine details here
left unsolved.
We can not help but admire the enterprise, pluck, and
daring of this man who started out for wild coasts of America as a young
fellow, and twelve years after his arrival here had braved the dangers of
a new and untenanted land, constantly threatened by the incursions of
hostile redskins, in the company of his loyal and faithful, hardworking
consort, "my beloved wife Catheriney," and had established himself in the
upperpart of the Valley of Virginia in 1753-4, only shortly there after
to move out and on again, to arrive speedily at the settlement of
Palatines on Great Almance Creek, where on 30, December 1755 he received
251 acres of land in Orange County by deed from Henry McCulloh, Joseph
Robson, and Joseph Willcox, the same having been acknowledged in Raleigh.
on 1 February 1769, he acquired from John Cook and wife a second parcel
of land, containing 112 acres lying on the south side of Great Alamance
Creek, being a part of a tract of 225 acres conveyed by H. E. McCuloch to
said Cook. The present occupant of this land, John Loy, says of it: "we
still own the land that the first Loys entered when they landed in North
Carolina, and it is the finest land in the country.
Of the tract which he bought first, Martin Loy conveyed to
two of his sons on 18 February 1775, for a consideration of ten pounds
each to John Loy, 112 acres, and to George Loy, 120 acres. It seems not
improbable, in the absence of a more particular description, that the
second tract of land on the South corner" (apparently to transfer title
to a spring seems to confirm thes fact. this second tract was likewise
his homestead, as witness, the life tenure of it bestowed upon his wife
by will.
Here we may insert Martin Loy's will, which gives us apart
from the ship register and the record of grants and deeds, all that we
know of certainty concerning Martin Loy and his family:
IN THE NAME OF GOD. AMEN.
I, Martin Loy, of Orange County, being very sick and
weak, but
in perfect mind and memory, thanks be to God for
it,calling
unto mind the mortality of my body and knowing that is
appointed for all men once to die, do make and ordain
this my
last will and testament: that is to say,
Principally and first, I give and recommend my soul
into the
Hand of Almighty God that gave it, and my body I
recommend
to the Earth to be buried in a Christian burial at
the discretion
of my Exprs., nothing doubting at the general
resurrection I
shall receive the same again by the mighty power of
god; and
as touching such wordly estate wherewith it has
pleased God
to bless me in this life, I give, devise and despose
of the
same in the following manner and form: that is to
say, first of
all, I recommend my Exrs. to pay my debts out of my
Estate,
and to my daughter Mary, I give and demise two cows
and
calves and to my beloved wife Catheriney, I give all
my
moveable Estate during her widowhood, and to live on
the
place and after her decease the land and plantation
belongs
to my son Henry Loy, and also I give my son George
Loy, one
acre of constitute, make and ordain Jacob Albright,
and Geo.
Loy my sole Exrs. of this my last Will and Testament.
In
witness whereof, I have hereunto set my hand and seal
this
15th day of July, 1777.
His
Martin X Loy mark
Singed, sealed and delivered
in the presence of us:
Henry Garhut
his
Isaac C. X Sharp
mark
It is to be noted that the will mentions by name only his
widow, Catharina, two sons, George and Henry, and one daughter, Mary. We
have recited above such reasonable conjectures concerning his wife as we
have been able to deduce from these meager details, Besides her, the will
names but three of their children, two of whom, Mary and Henry, doubtless
lived with their parents at the time, and were still unmarried.
The provisions of "two cows and calves" for Mary is
manfestly a dowry when she should become married.
We know that Henry came eventually into full possission of
the old homestead, as will be recited under his name, but it appears
reasonably certain that at the time of his father's death he was just a
young fellow, perhaps still a minor, and unmarried.
George Loy was certainly the oldest of the family, for it
was customary for the oldest son to be named as executor of an estate and
John would surely have been so nominated had he been older.
John Loy is not named in the will, probably because he had
been amply provided for, as was George also, by the transfer of the farm
conveyed to him in 1775, and further in his case, by reason of the fact
that he had contracted a very favorable alliance of marriage with Mary
(or Molly) Holt, of the influential Holt family.
Apart from his nomination as an executor of the estate, it
must well be doubted, for similar reasons, that George would have been
mentioned in the body of the will, except for the fact that the one acre
of land demised to him contained the spring upon which household was
dependant for water. Both George and John, then, were men of family, well
established in the community.
May we not read in the tender solicitude of Martin Loy for
his "beloved wife," in the partitioning of his larger holding to the two
older sons, and in the devise of the homestead to the " Benjamin" Of his
heart, not to mention the thoughtful provision for his daughter's dowry,
a strong family affection and a lively pride in and hope for his
offspring. He found a heaven on earth within the circle of his family,
and a refuge from the turmoil of the world at his own hearthside.
We do not know how many children in all Martin and
Catharina Loy may have had. Possibly, there were several daughters who
were married and settled in the neighborhood with their own families away
from the family fireside: if there were some old enough, such might have
remained in Pennsylvania or in Virginia. There is such a suggestion in
Mr. Dunlap's note that Martin Loy seemed to make payment for land
purchased in 1765 by a stephen Loy, in Augusta County, Virginia.
Conjecture here makes it not impossible that there wewe several other
children, for the old Palatime families were usually numerous, and such
otheres are not mentioned in the will because they were independant , or
had been amply provided for, as in the case of John. In this regard, we
can only hope that more light may be thrown upon the question by the
discovery of old records, or through the communication of old traditions
which have persisted as family history.
Soon after the date of his will, 15 July 1777, Martin Loy,
PATRIARCH OF OUR BRANCH OF THE LOY FAMILY IN AMERICA, was released from
the sickness and infirmity which had possessed his body, and with clear
mind and hopeful vision of the like to come, he passed from this life at
his farm on the south side of great Alamance Creek, in Orange County,
North Carolina, and his soul returned " into the hand of Almighty God
that gave it."

Martin came to America September 26, 1741 on the ship
"Saint Marks". Arrived in Philadelphia, Pa. Settled in Augusta County,
Va. and went to Orange County, North Carolina about 1754, where he lived
until his death in 1777-1779. Martin's Will dated 7-15-1777 died at his
home on South side of Great Alamance Creek in Orange County, North
Carolina. Martin in his will, named Anna and his children, George and
Henry and Mary, Anna Came to America an Ship"Elizabeth" August 27, 1733.
See Loy Book page 23.
Martins Wife name in full may be Anna Cathryne (or Cathrine)Foust ( or
Faust) There are no records proving.
THE LOY FAMILY
"Tradition is almost uniform on placing the Loy
family originally in France, where it became Protestant (which probably
meant Calvinist Reformed there) and was driven out under the persecution
which followed the revocation in 1685 by Louis XIV of the Edict of Nantes
which had secured partial religious freedom to the Huguenots. It is said
that three brothers and one sister dashed from France at this time. The
name seems to have been Luys, Luis (Luey); pronounced Lu-ee or Lo-ee.
After migration into Germany, it took the Spelling Ley, which later
became Loy. In France the family had a coat of arms." (A Copy of this
coat of arms is in the possession of George T. Scott of Loysville, Pa.) | Loy, Martin (I903)

There were several Conley/Connelly families living in Burke County,
North Carolina in the early 1800's, but at this time we are not aware of
which, if any, of these Conleys are the ancestors of the following Conley
family. We do know that there were two brothres and possibly three, that
came to Union County, Georgia before the Civil War.

When I went over to meet my father's cousin, Shirley Woolf
Ryland and to get some information about the Sharps she had an original
letter that was written to my great great grandmother, Julia Goodrum
Conley form her husband Daniel Rufus Conley during the Civil War. (this
is my great great grandmother on my father's father's mother's side of
the family. Shirley read the letter out loud and I taped it and
transcribed it later. The letter was very faded and Shirley had a hard
time reading it. Since she had had this letter since a Child and read it
many times I thought it might be better if she read it instead of me. My
visit with Shirley was on April 1995. I may add that it was a pleasure to
meet her. She gave me a apron that belonged to my great grandmother.When
I touch the Apron that Nancy Conley had worn gives me a very warm feeling.
Thunderbolt Battle, July 12, 1863
Dear Julia,
Owning to your very long silence I have written you two letters
since I have received one from you, but I thought it my duty to write to
you since yours may have been misplaced and not come on account of
neligence.
The past month we have nothing else on nerves on battle after
battle on every side. Our regiment has marching orders several times in
the last two weeks to Charleston. Furloughs have been stoped and I do not
know when they will open again. I Cannot tell when I will be Able to get
one as time stands now.
I Suppose you have heard of our surrender of our nobel Little
Vicksburge with 21,000 of our gallent troops under ( something Government
) Grant Pendleton that was on the 4th of the month.
I have not been very well for some time past my bowels have
been somewhat danger and our rations are thin on account of such of it
has reduced me down to nothing only skin and bones and also I am very
feeble indeed, We have a great deal of sickness in our company and
regiment. We have had two deaths recently in our company and one on the
4th, Sargent T. M. Henderson and the other was Stricklin. We have a great
many at homes and still in hospitals. Our Company is over one hundred
strong and we only have some forty men for duty which makes it very heavy
on what few is left.
If you see any of our company that is coming back to camp soon
I want you to be certain and send them to send some gloves to me that is
if you have them made. I need them to wear on dress parade.
I will say to you dear Julia that I become perfectly worn out
in camp.
I expect from the intense heat.
I expect Lieutenant ( Gray or Bray ) Will be in Calhoun in a
short time. I did want to go when he did but I am fearful I will not get
off. The Captain has not done me justice by no means and a great many men
fuloughs, He used a great deal of particulity with the men. He has his
favorite pets and he gave them all the privileges and the battalion has
to do as they can.
I am very anxious to hear from you and my dear little ladies,
Sally and Ida. It has been so long since I heard from you. I am fearful
some of you are sick and I learned that there is a great deal of sickness
in that section. I want you to take special care of yourself and my dear
little Sally and Ida for you may rest asure that as soon as I can get a
furlough and keep well that I will come to spend a few pleasent days with
you and the little ladies. It is very strange indeed the longer I stay
away from my dear little interesting family the more I become
disatisfied, If it was not for you and my little ladies I could not
content myself much better just to think of the hardships of men have
been under in the camps and also be deprived almost certainly of ever
going to see his family. It is very discouraging to think that I have
such limited privileges anywhere without a pass from our officers.
I suppose that there is some excitement in your county on
account of brass following back in Tennessee.
I am in hopes that men start having been lying at home with
with been uncomfortable to go into the service and _______ some hardships
as well as that has been the camps for months. Be certain and write me
soon and give me all the piticulars.
From your affectionate husband,
Most respectfully
D. R. Conley to my Dear
Julia
P. S. Say to Ida I would like to hear from her.

On August 7, 1996 I sent a letter to Civil War Descendants Society
seeking proof that Daniel Rufus Conley was a confederate soldier. I
received a answer from them on September 17, 1996.
Daniel Rufus Conley was a sergeant of Company I in the 63rd Infantry
Confederate States of America.
Mrs Mulford,
Thank you for your order. The 63rd Georgia Infantry was a most
commendable military-unit in the Southern Cause. The Society's
Certificates of Recognition are also popular across the United States as
a means of memeoralizing A Civil War ancestor-soldier.

On The 1900 Georgia Census, Enumerated June 12, 1900
Enumerator, Sallie R. Ervins
Union County, Blairsville, Georgia
It stated that Julia and Daniel had been married for 43 years,
Daniel was a farmer, his father and mother were both born in North
Carolina. his Farm Schedule was 88 ( what ever that means).
It stated that Julia had 7 children and 6 are living. I never did
find Sally on the 1870 or 1880 Census.
I took Josiah E. to be Eugene from the earlier census because the
birth dates were the same and one more child would give Julia 8 instead
of seven like the 1900 census said. Josiah was listed as single.
Ida 's husband must have died because it shows her as single and
living with her parents at the age of 42.

In the spring or summer of 96 I found a Charles Conley in
Blairsville, Georgia, I called him and he stated that Daniel Rufus Conley
was his Great Grandfather. He knew very little of th family but stated he
was interested. I sent him my information of the family. Months later I
heard no answer and gave him a call. He stated he had had health problems
and did hope someone would carry on the family genealogy. I told him I
was sorry and hope he would get better. I was very disapointed with this
but decided to plug along on my own.
