Cornelius (3) served 3 years during the Revolution and was not atRuddle's Station when it was captured in 1780, as he was on duty atthe Falls of the Ohio. In 1782 when he was 23 and she was 21, he metand married "the beautiful Jane Mulherrin". Her brother, John, latermarried his sister, Elizabeth; they were children of James Mulherrin.The wedding is described in Guild's Old Times In Tennessee. Fourcouples were married at the same time in what is now the city ofNashville and the ceremony was performed by a trustee of the colony.The description, in part, follows:
"The colony was then in its infancy and the settlers were not suppliedwith the means or appliances necessary to make a wedding occasionbrilliant, either in the way of gorgeous dresses, a table laden withrich viands and luxuries to tempt the fastidious appetite, and a fineband to furnish music while the guests' tripped the light fantastictoe' as the older settlements could do, but there was not wanting thedisposition on the part of those more immediately interested to makethe affair as grand and imposing as circumstances would admit,especially as it was among the first weddings in the new settlement.They were well supplied with game of almost every description, withwhich to prepare the most savory and tempting dishes, but there wasneither flour nor meal in the whole colony with which to make bread,nor had there been for six months. In this emergency two of thesettlers were mounted on horses and hurried off to Danville, Kentucky,for a small quantity of corn to supply the wedding table with bread.Only a few days elapsed before the couriers returned, bringing withthem each one bushel of corn, which soon found its way to the mortarand pestle, where it was speedily converted into excellent meal, andfrom it was baked the first 'bride's cake' of which this new colonyboasted. It was made with pounded corn meal, with no other ingredientsthan a little salt and water. Amid the dangers that environed thesettlement, the hearts of this band of pioneers grew happy whilecelebrating the wedding with song, dance, and feast, renderedexquisitely delightful by the introduction of the wedding 'pound cake'and perhaps no cake on a similar occasion, before or since, wasenjoyed with more zest."
Two little girls were born (Polly, Aug. 1784) and (Nancy, March 1786).In November of 1786 Cornelius (3) went turkey hunting and was ambushedby Indians. An inventory of his estate was made January 1787 and is onrecord in Davidson County, Tennessee, Will and Inventory Book1784-1794. From this inventory Arnow, whose books are a study of thefirst settlers weaves a story showing the Ruddles to be an example ofa Cumberland pioneer family.
The inventory follows:
A horse about 14 hands or near 4 years old, 5 cows and calves, one twoyear old heifer, one bed and furniture, two bedsteads, half dozenpewter plates, two pewter basons, one pewter dish, 4 tin cups, half adozen pewter spoons, half a dozen knives and two forks, one dutchoven, two water pails, two coolers, one wash tub, a box iron and oneheater, one pair of cotton cards, an iron candlestick, two saddletrees wt ye irons, one briddle, a hand saw, one ax. Two beaver traps,a table and chest, a frying pan two chairs, a lead ink stand, a razor,two small horses, looking glass, a chiles bed, a weeding hoe, a smallball, a saw sett, a pair bullet moles, a common prayer book, a spur, apair of knitting needles, a little spinning wheel, a cotton gin, alock and key, about 130 lbs. of flax, two 31 lb. of cotton in yeseed,about 50 bus. of Indian corn.
Arnow wrote that "Ruddle was the only first settler found who had evena small bed, for his trundle bed was referred to as a 'chile's bed'."
Cornelius' widow, Jane, married his first cousin, James Ruddell (3),on December 8, 1788. James (3) was the son of Archibald (2), brotherof Isaac (2), Cornelius' father. Jane and James were parents of tenchildren and the youngest was named Cornelius. James (3) had beencaptured at Ruddle's Station and was a prisoner for 2 years and ahalf.

On 3 Sep 1787, both Charles MULHERIN Sr. and Jr. were both grantedland by the State of South Carolina for service in the Revolution. Thegrant awarded 183 acres to Charles Sr. and 200 acres to Charles Jr. inDistrict 96, which includes present-day Abbeville County, "on thewaters of the Twelve Mile River." A Charles MULHERIN thought to beCharles, Jr. was listed as Sergeant in Captain John Smith's CompanyAugust-October 1779.
Charles MULHERIN, Jr. died only two years after his award of land andby his will of 17 Mar 1789, he disposed of both grants of Bounty Land.From this we assume that Charles, Sr. had died earlier and Charles,Jr. had inherited his land without formal proceedings. Consideringthat Charles, Sr. was about 70 years of age during the Revolution, hisgrant may well have been for civilian contributions rather thanmilitary service.
Charles, Jr.'s will named granddaughter Elizabeth ASKINS, daughter ofSarah and George ASKINS to receive 180 acres of land near Twelve MileRiver; daughter Jean (a name used interchangeably with Jane) received200 acres in the same vicinity. Son James was given ten dollars; sonJohn's bequest was "My Bay Mare and six Guineas; daughter Sarah ASKINSreceived "one gun and two pots now in her possession" ..."TheBallance...shall be divided amongst all My Children." We are not giventhe names of the other children.

Charles, Jr.'s son John was also a veteran of the Revolutionary Warand would later marry Elizabeth RUDDELL, daughter of Captain Isaac andElizabeth BOWMAN RUDDELL of Ruddell's Station, Kentucky. Pensionapplications by John and Elizabeth provide some excellent familyinformation and transcripts may be found in Appendix VII.
The brothers James, John, and William MULHERIN were among the veryearliest settlers in the Cumberland River area that would later becomethe State of Tennessee. Harriet Simpson Arnow in her book SEEDTIME ONTHE CUMBERLAND gives this account of events in late 1779:
"There was the older John Buchanan, ...with him was his wife and threesons--Samuel, Alexander, and John. There were John and JamesMulherrin, with their families,...the Mulherrin and Buchanan menwere...going to Clark's Station, a mile from Danville, Kentucky, onlyto leave their wives and children in comparative safety while theywent on down to the Middle Cumberland to start a settlement...
Page 30
Destined to be the most famous of all (the stations), though itsinhabitants were constantly changing, was that built largely by theBuchanan party on the southern side of the Cumberland. This station,soon to be known as French Lick, was about a mile upriver from Eaton's... French Lick was in the upper part of what came to be Nashville, onthe riverbank by a fine spring..."
J.G.M. Ramsey in his book THE ANNALS OF TENNESSEE describes conditionsat the time thus:
"When the first settlers came to the Bluff in 1779-80...the countryhad the appearance of one which had never before been cultivated.There was no sign of any cleared land...Nothing was presented to theeye but one large plain of woods and cane, frequented by buffaloes,elk, deer, wolves, foxes, panthers, and other animals suited to theclimate.
Here they built cabins, cleared ground and planted corn. The cabinswere built with stockades from one to the other, with port holes andbastions...They were admonished ...that their settlement could notlong escape the aggression of the savages around them. They prudentlyerected block-houses in lines...the whole forming a square within.
The little band of emigrants at the Bluff were in the centre of a vastwilderness, equi-distant from the most war-like and ferocious tribeson this continent--tribes that had frequently wasted the frontiers ofCarolina, Virginia and Pennsylvania with the tomahawk and with fire,and that were now aided, in the unnatural alliance of Great Britain,by the arts and treasures furnished by the agents of thatgovernment...Three hundred miles of wilderness separated them from thenearest fort of their countrymen...They were perhaps, double thatdistance from their seat of government in North Carolina, while allenergies of the partent state were employed in the tremendous strugglefor Independence..."
After their unsuccessful attempt against the Bluff, in 1781, theIndians continued occasional irruptions and depradations throughoutthe forming settlements on Cumberland. In that year little corn wasraised. The scarcity of grain compelled the settlers to plant morelargely, and raise more grain in 1782, and to procure subisstence byhunting. In both these pursuits, many became victims to the stratagemand cruelty of their savage enemy..."
Despite the myriad perils of the frontier, the "Mulherin and Buchananmen...brought their wives and children down from Kentucky in the fallof 1780. Construction of the station was complete and the settlersdoubtless were anxious to restore their family life to some degree ofnormalcy. We may reasonably assume that Jane MULHERIN had been withthe other women at Clark's Station and arrived at French Lick withthem in late 1780.

Cornelius RUDDELL's marriage to "the beauteous Jane MULHERIN" wasamong the very first in the settlement. Cornelius was a son of CaptainIsaac and Elizabeth BOWMAN RUDDELL. He was a seasoned verteran of theRevolutionary War having been under the command of his uncle, CaptainJoseph BOWMAN in George Rogers CLARKS's Western Campaign. He arrivedat French Lick on military duty in late 1779 or early 1780.
Mr. James Shaw, a trustee of the colony, performed the marriageceremony, along with three others all in one day in 1781. Guild in hisbook OLD TIMES gives us a traditional account of some particulars ofthis wedding:
(See same above)
In May, 1784, John and James MULHERIN, as well as Cornelius RUDDELL,were each awarded 640 acres of land as settlers. Tragically, WilliamMULHERIN, along with Samuel BUCHANAN and three others who wereguarding the station, had been killed by Indians in 1783. Nor wouldCornelius RUDDELL ever enjoy his award and the fruits of his sevenyears of labor. Ramsey tell of his ambush as follows:
"In this year (1786), Cornelius Riddle was shot by the Indians, nearBuchanan's Station. He had killed two turkeys, and hanging them upon abush, had gone off into the woods to hunt for more. The Indianshearing the report of his gun came to the place, and finding theturkeys, lay in ambush where they were, and on Riddles's coming totake them away, they fired upon and killed him.""
Cornelius's murder, near his home while peacefully providing food forthe upcoming holiday feast, seems doubly ironic in light of the otherrigors he had survived.
Beginning in August 1778, at age 19, Cornelius was a member of "Capt.Joseph Bowman's Company of foot at the Illenoise under the command ofAollo. George Rogers Clark." He participated in the Illinois Campaignwhich ultimately secured the Northwest Territory for the UnitedStates.
In the summer of 1778, the regiment captured the British posts ofKaskaskia and Cahokia near the Mississippi River in Illinois country.The following Frebruary, Col. CLARK and his force of 170 Virginiansand Illinois French volunteers made an epic 18 day trek from Kaskaskiathrought he freezing water of the flooded Illinois country torecapture Fort Sackville at "Vincennes.
The Americans arrived at their destination wet, cold, and hungry onFebruary 23 after an incredible march across 180 miles of "drownedcountry" that had forced them, at times, to wade in icy watersreaching their shoulders. The British, most of whom had been sent toDetroit or Canada for the winter were taken totally by surprise.CLARK's strategy was a triumph and the British were never again ableto reclaim the Northwest Territory, which is now the states of Ohio,Indiana, Illinois, Wisconsin, and eastern Minnesota.
Cornelius probably spent the rest of the winter of 1778-79 at FortSackville but in the following fall, he was with Col. TODD who was"County lieutenant of Illinois Co., the Old Northwest". Col. TO"DDwrote Virginia Governor Thomas JEFFERSON that he had sent two batteaux(boats) under Lt. Isaac BOWMAN to the Falls of the Ohio (nowLouisville, KY) and they had been attcked by Chickasaw Indians. Thesurvivors reached French Lick with word that Lt. BOWMAN had beenkilled and "one Riddle" (doubtless Cornelius) was the only man toescape from BOWMAN's batteau.
Cornelius RUDDELL stayed on at French Lick and married "the beauteousJane MULHERIN' in 1781.
Generation IV
Cornelius and Jane MULHERIN RUDDELL issue:
1. Polly RUDDELL, b. French Lick, Davidson Co., TN 2 Aug 1784; m. _McFALL.
2. Nancy RUDDELL, b. French Lick, Davidson Co., TN 27 Mar 1786; m. ___COOK.
Page 33
After Cornelius's murder, Jane's brother, James MULHERIN, who was aschool teacher and surveyor, helped her record the inventory requiredto settle the estate. Dated 2 January 1787, it is cited by a laterhistorian as "an example of a Cumberland pioneer family with theclassic basic essentials and little more". It is transcribed inAppendix VIII, together with a further description of the RUDDELLhousehold as visualized by Harriette Simpson Arnow.
So, in 1787, we find the 26-year-old widow in a frontier outpost withtwo small daughters -- Polly, a toddler of two, and Nancy, nine monthsold. "The beauteous Jane Mulherin" left French Lick, where she hadburied her brother and husband, and sought refuge with Cornelius'sparents, Captain Isaac and Elizabeth BOWMAN RUDDELL, in the relativesafety of Ruddell's Station in Bourbon Co., KY. She was probablyaccompanied by her brother John MULHERIN who later married Cornelius'ssister Elizabeth.
Althought the Indians were still troublesome at times in that area,they were no longer being incited, supplied, and led by the British asthey had been during the Revolutionary War. (Note inserted by J.Hodgson: Revolutionary War papers indicate that James Ruddell servedin the Rev War in 1783 when Ruddell's Fort was invaded.) Several ofthe RUDDELL families made their home at Ruddell's Station and it wasthere that Jane met and married another veteran of the RevolutionaryWar, James RUDDELL, Cornelius's first cousin.
Jane's brother James MULHERIN was apparently the only member of thefamily to stay in the Cumberland area. He was well educated and taughtin the early schools . He also was appointed surveyor and conductedmany of the surveys used in the laying out of Davidson County. Heserved on the first Grand Jury held in the county in 1784 and receivedeighteen grants of land from the state between 1789 and 1794.
His death was reported in the Nashville National Banner newspaper 4May 1826 which described him as "an early settler and highlyrespectable citizen". He was a wealthy man which is evident from theinventory of his estate which included twelve slaves, over one hundredhead of livestock, as well as an extensive list of householdfurnishings and farm implements. His library was also notable andincluded Euclid's ELEMENTS in two volumes, together with books onother subjects rangin from farming to orchids to astronomy.

James and Jane MULHERIN RUDDELL stayed on at Ruddell's Station forfive years after they were married and it was there that the firstfour of their ten children were born. Soon after the birth of Georgein 1793, the family moved to Boone County where they lived the rest oftheir lives.
Jane is not mentioned in her husband's will, which he wrote in 1835,and it is assumed that she died before that date. She and James arethought to have been buried on their farm in Boooe County but theexact burial site is not known.

This inventory gives us some graphic insights into life as it waslived by these industrious and hardy citizensl. Harriette SimpsonArnow in her book SEEDTIME ON THE CUMBERLAND uses the RUDDELLinventory to comment on some aspects of their existence. The followingare excerpts from her writing:
"...when taken in their totality most of the furnishings of firstsettlers' homes of which we have record were primarily utilitarrianbut never quite completely. One of the barest was that of CorneliusRuddle.... Cornelius Ruddle like others who settled there lost fouryears and more of work, not to mention money gone for ammunitiion, sothat the chances are he was poorer when he died than when he came.
Still luckier than many, he did get 640 acres of land in 1784, butthree yearrs later on a May morning he went hunting, killed twoturkeys near his home at Buchanan's Station on Mill Creek, hung themup on a bush out of reach of dogs and foxes, then went looking formore. Lurking Indians, hearing the shot, came searching, found theturkeys, and lay in ambush until he got back.
He was, thus, when he died little more than a bridegroom starting inlife, beginning all over again, clearing fields and laying fence, hisfirst work gone to somebody else. Not all his possessions were sold;his land seems to have been saved for his children, ....
It is doubtful if at this date the Ruddles had more thaan a one roomcabin in Buchanan's Station, but a large room, floored, a fireplace inone end, with plenty of space, such as the folding table....
The next most commonly owned piece of furniture was the chest; theRuddles had only one. Like other families they had a table, but onlytwo chairs...the ruddles were not unusual among first settlers in thatthey had no form of cupboard, but ... they used shelves, setcornerwise and supposed by pegs set into the logs. On these werestored when not in use, the family's one half dozen pewter plates, twopewter basins....
...the pewter would have been near the hearth, center in the smallhome of most activities of the housewife. Here was the Dutch oven orbaker as it was called; three legged and with a close fitting coverr,it was about the most important cooking utensil in any pioneer home.Most baking not done directly in the ashes as in the case of potatoesand sometimes hoecake was done in the Dutch oven. The Ruddles...hadonly one other cooking utensil, and this was a frying pan which, whennot in use, would have hung on a peg set into the chimney.
Men at that date were clean shaven, so that Cornelius Ruddle had arazor and a looking glass... The same shelf would have held thecandlestick, the lead inkstand, knitting needles, butter molds, andpossibly "Ye book of common prayer" ...nearby was the box iron andheater. The Ruddles had a box iron and with it the heater or chunk ofiron to be heated in the coals and then slipped inside the box...
The walls of the Ruddle home, though neither plastered nor papered,were far from bare. The family's spare clothing hung about on pegs orover long poles swung from the ceiling...Few of the first settlers,come by pack horse, had presses or even chests enough to hold thefamily linens and clothing, so that the walls...would have silverspurs, and ... skeins of linen thread or brightly coloted woolawaiting needles or weaver's spool, warping frame, wool and cottoncards, flax or hem hackle ... Somewhere around was their littlespinning wheel, though when in use on winter evenings it had anhonored place near the fire, as did their cotton gin.
The Ruddles probably kept most of the tools ordinarily left in thebarn ... just outside the door or even inside ... the saw set, withwhich Lcornelius may have earned extra money by sharpening the saws ofhis neighbors, was also kept in their home. Hanging on an inside wall,at least until there was a protective porch or barn, would have beenthe bridle, handsaw, two beaver traps when not in use, while the everexpensive and precious ax was during the nighttime kept within doorsin case of an Indian attack.
The Indians, as was their custom when killing a lone man, robbedCornelius of his knife, gun, shot bag, and anything else he had.
The Ruddle family is an example of a Cumberland pioneer familywith thebasic essential and little more, but most of us would be exceedingpoor if the head of the house worked for four years with no pay savecorn or whatever else the Indians let him grow, with the addedpossiblity that cows, horses, sheepl and hogs one owned may have beenstolen and killed by the Indians or strayed out of the country. Yeteven the few possessions left indicate a way of life more than a mereeating, sleeping, and working. They wore clean, ironed clothes forirons and washtubs were practically universal as were the lookingglass and razor. They were prepared for writing letters, though theRuddles were unusual in that they had only one book; there may havebeen a Bible and other books keept for the children.
The pioneer home was alive -- cooking smells, wandering dogs, playingchildren, working men and women.
Thus, we are given someideas to help us imagine the everyday life andwork of our ancestor, Jane MULHERIN RUDDELL, as a bride and youngmother at French Lick, Tennessee in the 1780s.

Cornelius (3) served 3 years during the Revolution and was not atRuddle's Station when it was captured in 1780, as he was on duty atthe Falls of the Ohio. In 1782 when he was 23 and she was 21, he metand married "the beautiful Jane Mulherrin". Her brother, John, latermarried his sister, Elizabeth; they were children of James Mulherrin.The wedding is described in Guild's Old Times In Tennessee. Fourcouples were married at the same time in what is now the city ofNashville and the ceremony was performed by a trustee of the colony.The description, in part, follows:
"The colony was then in its infancy and the settlers were not suppliedwith the means or appliances necessary to make a wedding occasionbrilliant, either in the way of gorgeous dresses, a table laden withrich viands and luxuries to tempt the fastidious appetite, and a fineband to furnish music while the guests' tripped the light fantastictoe' as the older settlements could do, but there was not wanting thedisposition on the part of those more immediately interested to makethe affair as grand and imposing as circumstances would admit,especially as it was among the first weddings in the new settlement.They were well supplied with game of almost every description, withwhich to prepare the most savory and tempting dishes, but there wasneither flour nor meal in the whole colony with which to make bread,nor had there been for six months. In this emergency two of thesettlers were mounted on horses and hurried off to Danville, Kentucky,for a small quantity of corn to supply the wedding table with bread.Only a few days elapsed before the couriers returned, bringing withthem each one bushel of corn, which soon found its way to the mortarand pestle, where it was speedily converted into excellent meal, andfrom it was baked the first 'bride's cake' of which this new colonyboasted. It was made with pounded corn meal, with no other ingredientsthan a little salt and water. Amid the dangers that environed thesettlement, the hearts of this band of pioneers grew happy whilecelebrating the wedding with song, dance, and feast, renderedexquisitely delightful by the introduction of the wedding 'pound cake'and perhaps no cake on a similar occasion, before or since, wasenjoyed with more zest."
Two little girls were born (Polly, Aug. 1784) and (Nancy, March 1786).In November of 1786 Cornelius (3) went turkey hunting and was ambushedby Indians. An inventory of his estate was made January 1787 and is onrecord in Davidson County, Tennessee, Will and Inventory Book1784-1794. From this inventory Arnow, whose books are a study of thefirst settlers weaves a story showing the Ruddles to be an example ofa Cumberland pioneer family.
The inventory follows:
A horse about 14 hands or near 4 years old, 5 cows and calves, one twoyear old heifer, one bed and furniture, two bedsteads, half dozenpewter plates, two pewter basons, one pewter dish, 4 tin cups, half adozen pewter spoons, half a dozen knives and two forks, one dutchoven, two water pails, two coolers, one wash tub, a box iron and oneheater, one pair of cotton cards, an iron candlestick, two saddletrees wt ye irons, one briddle, a hand saw, one ax. Two beaver traps,a table and chest, a frying pan two chairs, a lead ink stand, a razor,two small horses, looking glass, a chiles bed, a weeding hoe, a smallball, a saw sett, a pair bullet moles, a common prayer book, a spur, apair of knitting needles, a little spinning wheel, a cotton gin, alock and key, about 130 lbs. of flax, two 31 lb. of cotton in yeseed,about 50 bus. of Indian corn.
Arnow wrote that "Ruddle was the only first settler found who had evena small bed, for his trundle bed was referred to as a 'chile's bed'."
Cornelius' widow, Jane, married his first cousin, James Ruddell (3),on December 8, 1788. James (3) was the son of Archibald (2), brotherof Isaac (2), Cornelius' father. Jane and James were parents of tenchildren and the youngest was named Cornelius. James (3) had beencaptured at Ruddle's Station and was a prisoner for 2 years and ahalf.

On 3 Sep 1787, both Charles MULHERIN Sr. and Jr. were both grantedland by the State of South Carolina for service in the Revolution. Thegrant awarded 183 acres to Charles Sr. and 200 acres to Charles Jr. inDistrict 96, which includes present-day Abbeville County, "on thewaters of the Twelve Mile River." A Charles MULHERIN thought to beCharles, Jr. was listed as Sergeant in Captain John Smith's CompanyAugust-October 1779.
Charles MULHERIN, Jr. died only two years after his award of land andby his will of 17 Mar 1789, he disposed of both grants of Bounty Land.From this we assume that Charles, Sr. had died earlier and Charles,Jr. had inherited his land without formal proceedings. Consideringthat Charles, Sr. was about 70 years of age during the Revolution, hisgrant may well have been for civilian contributions rather thanmilitary service.
Charles, Jr.'s will named granddaughter Elizabeth ASKINS, daughter ofSarah and George ASKINS to receive 180 acres of land near Twelve MileRiver; daughter Jean (a name used interchangeably with Jane) received200 acres in the same vicinity. Son James was given ten dollars; sonJohn's bequest was "My Bay Mare and six Guineas; daughter Sarah ASKINSreceived "one gun and two pots now in her possession" ..."TheBallance...shall be divided amongst all My Children." We are not giventhe names of the other children.

Charles, Jr.'s son John was also a veteran of the Revolutionary Warand would later marry Elizabeth RUDDELL, daughter of Captain Isaac andElizabeth BOWMAN RUDDELL of Ruddell's Station, Kentucky. Pensionapplications by John and Elizabeth provide some excellent familyinformation and transcripts may be found in Appendix VII.
The brothers James, John, and William MULHERIN were among the veryearliest settlers in the Cumberland River area that would later becomethe State of Tennessee. Harriet Simpson Arnow in her book SEEDTIME ONTHE CUMBERLAND gives this account of events in late 1779:
"There was the older John Buchanan, ...with him was his wife and threesons--Samuel, Alexander, and John. There were John and JamesMulherrin, with their families,...the Mulherrin and Buchanan menwere...going to Clark's Station, a mile from Danville, Kentucky, onlyto leave their wives and children in comparative safety while theywent on down to the Middle Cumberland to start a settlement...
Page 30
Destined to be the most famous of all (the stations), though itsinhabitants were constantly changing, was that built largely by theBuchanan party on the southern side of the Cumberland. This station,soon to be known as French Lick, was about a mile upriver from Eaton's... French Lick was in the upper part of what came to be Nashville, onthe riverbank by a fine spring..."
J.G.M. Ramsey in his book THE ANNALS OF TENNESSEE describes conditionsat the time thus:
"When the first settlers came to the Bluff in 1779-80...the countryhad the appearance of one which had never before been cultivated.There was no sign of any cleared land...Nothing was presented to theeye but one large plain of woods and cane, frequented by buffaloes,elk, deer, wolves, foxes, panthers, and other animals suited to theclimate.
Here they built cabins, cleared ground and planted corn. The cabinswere built with stockades from one to the other, with port holes andbastions...They were admonished ...that their settlement could notlong escape the aggression of the savages around them. They prudentlyerected block-houses in lines...the whole forming a square within.
The little band of emigrants at the Bluff were in the centre of a vastwilderness, equi-distant from the most war-like and ferocious tribeson this continent--tribes that had frequently wasted the frontiers ofCarolina, Virginia and Pennsylvania with the tomahawk and with fire,and that were now aided, in the unnatural alliance of Great Britain,by the arts and treasures furnished by the agents of thatgovernment...Three hundred miles of wilderness separated them from thenearest fort of their countrymen...They were perhaps, double thatdistance from their seat of government in North Carolina, while allenergies of the partent state were employed in the tremendous strugglefor Independence..."
After their unsuccessful attempt against the Bluff, in 1781, theIndians continued occasional irruptions and depradations throughoutthe forming settlements on Cumberland. In that year little corn wasraised. The scarcity of grain compelled the settlers to plant morelargely, and raise more grain in 1782, and to procure subisstence byhunting. In both these pursuits, many became victims to the stratagemand cruelty of their savage enemy..."
Despite the myriad perils of the frontier, the "Mulherin and Buchananmen...brought their wives and children down from Kentucky in the fallof 1780. Construction of the station was complete and the settlersdoubtless were anxious to restore their family life to some degree ofnormalcy. We may reasonably assume that Jane MULHERIN had been withthe other women at Clark's Station and arrived at French Lick withthem in late 1780.

Cornelius RUDDELL's marriage to "the beauteous Jane MULHERIN" wasamong the very first in the settlement. Cornelius was a son of CaptainIsaac and Elizabeth BOWMAN RUDDELL. He was a seasoned verteran of theRevolutionary War having been under the command of his uncle, CaptainJoseph BOWMAN in George Rogers CLARKS's Western Campaign. He arrivedat French Lick on military duty in late 1779 or early 1780.
Mr. James Shaw, a trustee of the colony, performed the marriageceremony, along with three others all in one day in 1781. Guild in hisbook OLD TIMES gives us a traditional account of some particulars ofthis wedding:
(See same above)
In May, 1784, John and James MULHERIN, as well as Cornelius RUDDELL,were each awarded 640 acres of land as settlers. Tragically, WilliamMULHERIN, along with Samuel BUCHANAN and three others who wereguarding the station, had been killed by Indians in 1783. Nor wouldCornelius RUDDELL ever enjoy his award and the fruits of his sevenyears of labor. Ramsey tell of his ambush as follows:
"In this year (1786), Cornelius Riddle was shot by the Indians, nearBuchanan's Station. He had killed two turkeys, and hanging them upon abush, had gone off into the woods to hunt for more. The Indianshearing the report of his gun came to the place, and finding theturkeys, lay in ambush where they were, and on Riddles's coming totake them away, they fired upon and killed him.""
Cornelius's murder, near his home while peacefully providing food forthe upcoming holiday feast, seems doubly ironic in light of the otherrigors he had survived.
Beginning in August 1778, at age 19, Cornelius was a member of "Capt.Joseph Bowman's Company of foot at the Illenoise under the command ofAollo. George Rogers Clark." He participated in the Illinois Campaignwhich ultimately secured the Northwest Territory for the UnitedStates.
In the summer of 1778, the regiment captured the British posts ofKaskaskia and Cahokia near the Mississippi River in Illinois country.The following Frebruary, Col. CLARK and his force of 170 Virginiansand Illinois French volunteers made an epic 18 day trek from Kaskaskiathrought he freezing water of the flooded Illinois country torecapture Fort Sackville at "Vincennes.
The Americans arrived at their destination wet, cold, and hungry onFebruary 23 after an incredible march across 180 miles of "drownedcountry" that had forced them, at times, to wade in icy watersreaching their shoulders. The British, most of whom had been sent toDetroit or Canada for the winter were taken totally by surprise.CLARK's strategy was a triumph and the British were never again ableto reclaim the Northwest Territory, which is now the states of Ohio,Indiana, Illinois, Wisconsin, and eastern Minnesota.
Cornelius probably spent the rest of the winter of 1778-79 at FortSackville but in the following fall, he was with Col. TODD who was"County lieutenant of Illinois Co., the Old Northwest". Col. TO"DDwrote Virginia Governor Thomas JEFFERSON that he had sent two batteaux(boats) under Lt. Isaac BOWMAN to the Falls of the Ohio (nowLouisville, KY) and they had been attcked by Chickasaw Indians. Thesurvivors reached French Lick with word that Lt. BOWMAN had beenkilled and "one Riddle" (doubtless Cornelius) was the only man toescape from BOWMAN's batteau.
Cornelius RUDDELL stayed on at French Lick and married "the beauteousJane MULHERIN' in 1781.
Generation IV
Cornelius and Jane MULHERIN RUDDELL issue:
1. Polly RUDDELL, b. French Lick, Davidson Co., TN 2 Aug 1784; m. _McFALL.
2. Nancy RUDDELL, b. French Lick, Davidson Co., TN 27 Mar 1786; m. ___COOK.

After Cornelius's murder, Jane's brother, James MULHERIN, who was aschool teacher and surveyor, helped her record the inventory requiredto settle the estate. Dated 2 January 1787, it is cited by a laterhistorian as "an example of a Cumberland pioneer family with theclassic basic essentials and little more". It is transcribed inAppendix VIII, together with a further description of the RUDDELLhousehold as visualized by Harriette Simpson Arnow.
So, in 1787, we find the 26-year-old widow in a frontier outpost withtwo small daughters -- Polly, a toddler of two, and Nancy, nine monthsold. "The beauteous Jane Mulherin" left French Lick, where she hadburied her brother and husband, and sought refuge with Cornelius'sparents, Captain Isaac and Elizabeth BOWMAN RUDDELL, in the relativesafety of Ruddell's Station in Bourbon Co., KY. She was probablyaccompanied by her brother John MULHERIN who later married Cornelius'ssister Elizabeth.
Althought the Indians were still troublesome at times in that area,they were no longer being incited, supplied, and led by the British asthey had been during the Revolutionary War. (Note inserted by J.Hodgson: Revolutionary War papers indicate that James Ruddell servedin the Rev War in 1783 when Ruddell's Fort was invaded.) Several ofthe RUDDELL families made their home at Ruddell's Station and it wasthere that Jane met and married another veteran of the RevolutionaryWar, James RUDDELL, Cornelius's first cousin.
Jane's brother James MULHERIN was apparently the only member of thefamily to stay in the Cumberland area. He was well educated and taughtin the early schools . He also was appointed surveyor and conductedmany of the surveys used in the laying out of Davidson County. Heserved on the first Grand Jury held in the county in 1784 and receivedeighteen grants of land from the state between 1789 and 1794.
His death was reported in the Nashville National Banner newspaper 4May 1826 which described him as "an early settler and highlyrespectable citizen". He was a wealthy man which is evident from theinventory of his estate which included twelve slaves, over one hundredhead of livestock, as well as an extensive list of householdfurnishings and farm implements. His library was also notable andincluded Euclid's ELEMENTS in two volumes, together with books onother subjects rangin from farming to orchids to astronomy.

Jane is not mentioned in her husband's will, which he wrote in 1835,and it is assumed that she died before that date. She and James arethought to have been buried on their farm in Boooe County but theexact burial site is not known.

This inventory gives us some graphic insights into life as it waslived by these industrious and hardy citizensl. Harriette SimpsonArnow in her book SEEDTIME ON THE CUMBERLAND uses the RUDDELLinventory to comment on some aspects of their existence. The followingare excerpts from her writing:
"...when taken in their totality most of the furnishings of firstsettlers' homes of which we have record were primarily utilitarrianbut never quite completely. One of the barest was that of CorneliusRuddle.... Cornelius Ruddle like others who settled there lost fouryears and more of work, not to mention money gone for ammunitiion, sothat the chances are he was poorer when he died than when he came.
Still luckier than many, he did get 640 acres of land in 1784, butthree yearrs later on a May morning he went hunting, killed twoturkeys near his home at Buchanan's Station on Mill Creek, hung themup on a bush out of reach of dogs and foxes, then went looking formore. Lurking Indians, hearing the shot, came searching, found theturkeys, and lay in ambush until he got back.
He was, thus, when he died little more than a bridegroom starting inlife, beginning all over again, clearing fields and laying fence, hisfirst work gone to somebody else. Not all his possessions were sold;his land seems to have been saved for his children, ....
It is doubtful if at this date the Ruddles had more thaan a one roomcabin in Buchanan's Station, but a large room, floored, a fireplace inone end, with plenty of space, such as the folding table....
The next most commonly owned piece of furniture was the chest; theRuddles had only one. Like other families they had a table, but onlytwo chairs...the ruddles were not unusual among first settlers in thatthey had no form of cupboard, but ... they used shelves, setcornerwise and supposed by pegs set into the logs. On these werestored when not in use, the family's one half dozen pewter plates, twopewter basins....
...the pewter would have been near the hearth, center in the smallhome of most activities of the housewife. Here was the Dutch oven orbaker as it was called; three legged and with a close fitting coverr,it was about the most important cooking utensil in any pioneer home.Most baking not done directly in the ashes as in the case of potatoesand sometimes hoecake was done in the Dutch oven. The Ruddles...hadonly one other cooking utensil, and this was a frying pan which, whennot in use, would have hung on a peg set into the chimney.
Men at that date were clean shaven, so that Cornelius Ruddle had arazor and a looking glass... The same shelf would have held thecandlestick, the lead inkstand, knitting needles, butter molds, andpossibly "Ye book of common prayer" ...nearby was the box iron andheater. The Ruddles had a box iron and with it the heater or chunk ofiron to be heated in the coals and then slipped inside the box...
The walls of the Ruddle home, though neither plastered nor papered,were far from bare. The family's spare clothing hung about on pegs orover long poles swung from the ceiling...Few of the first settlers,come by pack horse, had presses or even chests enough to hold thefamily linens and clothing, so that the walls...would have silverspurs, and ... skeins of linen thread or brightly coloted woolawaiting needles or weaver's spool, warping frame, wool and cottoncards, flax or hem hackle ... Somewhere around was their littlespinning wheel, though when in use on winter evenings it had anhonored place near the fire, as did their cotton gin.
The Ruddles probably kept most of the tools ordinarily left in thebarn ... just outside the door or even inside ... the saw set, withwhich Lcornelius may have earned extra money by sharpening the saws ofhis neighbors, was also kept in their home. Hanging on an inside wall,at least until there was a protective porch or barn, would have beenthe bridle, handsaw, two beaver traps when not in use, while the everexpensive and precious ax was during the nighttime kept within doorsin case of an Indian attack.
The Indians, as was their custom when killing a lone man, robbedCornelius of his knife, gun, shot bag, and anything else he had.
The Ruddle family is an example of a Cumberland pioneer familywith thebasic essential and little more, but most of us would be exceedingpoor if the head of the house worked for four years with no pay savecorn or whatever else the Indians let him grow, with the addedpossiblity that cows, horses, sheepl and hogs one owned may have beenstolen and killed by the Indians or strayed out of the country. Yeteven the few possessions left indicate a way of life more than a mereeating, sleeping, and working. They wore clean, ironed clothes forirons and washtubs were practically universal as were the lookingglass and razor. They were prepared for writing letters, though theRuddles were unusual in that they had only one book; there may havebeen a Bible and other books keept for the children.
The pioneer home was alive -- cooking smells, wandering dogs, playingchildren, working men and women.
Thus, we are given someideas to help us imagine the everyday life andwork of our ancestor, Jane MULHERIN RUDDELL, as a bride and youngmother at French Lick, Tennessee in the 1780s.
