JOHN(4) 'REVOLUTIONARY JOHN' 1755-1831
John, oldest son of William, is known by his descendants as "Revolutionary John", as he served in the American Revolution, as did his two brothers. He participated in the Battle of Brandywine and was taken prisoner. In 1779, after his service, he married Mary Pugh, daughter of Robert Pugh and Mary Edwards of Hampshire Co., VA. To them would be born 10 children; 7 would survive to marry. The first 7 were born in Hampshire Co. and the last 3 in Randolph Co, VA to the west. John and Mary came to Randolph Co. in 1792. The trip into this secluded valley in the Appalachian Mountains was mostly likely arduous and a likely reason that much of this family tended to remain in this area. Their seven children who lived to marry would produce in turn 81 grandchildren. Many of their numerous descendants still live today in this Tygart River Valley of what is now West Virginia.
In March 1795 John made his first land purchase in Randolph Co., consisting of 267 acres on the eastside of Leading Creek, near the present town of Gilman, 4 miles north of present day Elkins. He then bought land on Kings Run near Beverly; and, in 1800, he bought 150 acres from William Wilson on Eberman's Run. This would become Chenoweth Creek, and here John built his permanent home. John was a blacksmith and a farmer and spent the rest of his life in Randolph Co., dying at age 75. He served in many public offices there during his long life. His family is the largest and most well known of any fourth generation Chenoweth and many descendants of this family are still found in West Virginia. He left a will naming his children and is buried with his wife in the Chenoweth cemetery, south of Elkins, WV, known as Daniel's Graveyard. A large monument was placed there by the family in 1915 to honor is service in the Revolution. This event began the first family reunion picnic in Elkins, and event that has continued annually to present day. The site has a special 1880 Census study of the families of John of Randolph Co.
