Yes. But the question is: How low must you go? Perhaps this can be placed in abeyance? Without further head butting, chest pounding, shit flinging & dust kicking? (picture goats, gorillas, chimps & bulls...)

Unfortunately this individual tries to scrape a living by pretending to be some kind of genius.

He's been outed several times so one can only hope he will be banned here and sensible non racist discussions on real subjects can follow

Sorry spice, simon is thinking he can get away with his nonsense by using an ad hominem attack,
as he already knows he's lost any argument based on facts.

It's obvious that that is his strategy,
as he's given up on Sub Roman Britain
and has come over to sling his shit
on this thread on Meso-America,
an area where he knows even less.

Well, it is true that I have been driven from 2 space bbs boards for pointing out the obvious
to manned Mars flight enthusiasts [in other words Mars Nuts], specifically
that not that many people really care all that much about spending billions flying a few men to Mars,
but would rather have their tax dollars spent on keeping themselves alive:

Telling those Mars Nuts the obvious was no act of genius either,
and to this day they persist in their delusion that Mars is "Earth-like".

simon, for some reason you want to think that rationality is a peculiarly Anglo-Saxon trait.
There are a billion Chinese who disagree with you on that,
and many tens of millions of Japanese as well.

Now now Mr potty mouth read your own writing and see how stupid this is. Incidently Germania and Gaul are different places and there is no clear definition of "Germania" it isnot a geographical term as we understand it but a regional/cultural one.

No idea what Mars has to do with the acculturalisation of the Romano British - do you think they all went to Mars? Were wiped out by asteroids from Mars?

Anyone like to have a guess here?

Do I? I think we can agree that the bigoted racist here is you as others have observed.

For example the only rational peoople in the world (whatever that means) according to you are are the Germans Chinese and Japanese - Indians don't count apparently (biggest democracy in the world, world beatring companies and scientists, but hey) and of course no black countries or Latin America ones or Pacific ones.

I would also say the Vietnamese are reasonably rational - they sent your lot running like hares did they not? The defeated left in Helicopters the victors came on bicycles. Very rational I would say

Get over your problems with coloured people - one of them might end up nursing you.

Well, wanker, it is also true that a couple of wannabe casino Indians were afraid I would set up my own casino here in Ohio.

And I'll concede that the Mars Nuts are as intellectually deficient as you are.

wanker, what you do not understand is that both rationalism and the scientific method
are language and race independent.

Aside from that,
this is still a f******g seal:

Here's some other news for you:
metal workers at that time used stone tools and molds, and clay molds.

Now if you can show any of those at any Anglo-Saxon site from this time period, then please do.
Then try to come up with an explanation for why Anglo-Saxon metalsmiths would use Pict motifs in their bling.

No hello Simon? Oh dear you are upset.

That seems very unfair! Fancy not letting whitey get away with it. What can they have been thinking!!!!

You admit more people who have seen through you.

Seriously though, lying about your own mother I hope the poor woman was not embarrased by her son's dishonesty.

And I'll concede that the Mars Nuts are as intellectually deficient as you are.

wanker, what you do not understand is that both rationalism and the scientific method are language and race independent.
Sorry dirty mouth have you not just used language to explain this very point, thus proving it invalid! Self-contradicting moron - I win, again.

It's like watching a madman quarrel with himself.

Aside from that,
this is still a f******g seal:
And you are still a lying psycho who has obviously never been to Europe. If you had you would for example know that Scotland's ancient royal town is not in Denmark. You would also know where England is and where Germany is.

As for the artifact (if that is what it is) it has no relevance whatsoever whether it is meant to be a seal, fish or mythical creature.
Here's some other news for you: metal workers at that time used stone tools and molds, and clay molds.
And here is some news for you, you are a lying idiot who knows nothing about this subject. If you can prooduce such intricate jewellery with stone tools - why er do they use metal ones now? What is the amazing advantage of using stone?

Yet another game set and match to yours truly.

Now if you can show any of those at any Anglo-Saxon site from this time period, then please do.
Then try to come up with an explanation for why Anglo-Saxon metalsmiths would use Pict motifs in their bling.


The Picts to you being a Danish people? Just tryiing to get things clear. Like your Cruits and Scottish Russians

As I said you are cracking up old son, can't be long now

Justg a friendly warning don't keep trying EP yu are just not up to it. Stick to "good porn" (yuck) you obviously don't have the brain for anything better

It's a peculiar thing to admit. But we are dealing with a very "peculiar" person

Apparently to try and get some kudos he attempted to claim on one board that he was 1/8 native American (shades of Dion Boucicault's play The Octoroon which I believe played very well in the US just after the Civil war) though he declined to say where that 1/8 was.

He then admitted that real native Americans scoffed at his deceits which led to him making a series of racist remarks

Offended (and who should blame her) one poster researched his family history and found he was lying, as he has on most things.

This is a clear case for moderation.

ACCOUNT OF BLACK EYED TWIGGS BY JOHN M. TWIGG born December 24, 1845, at Twiggtown, Allegany County, Maryland
http://www.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~mdall ... -twigg.htm
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

But as prolific as were the progeny of the original three blue-eyed Twigg brothers, John, Robert and Francis,
they were far outnumbered by the black-eyed Twiggs by the end of the third generation, all of whom, it would seem,
sprang from their single progenitor, BLACK-EYED JOHN TWIGG, WHO WAS THE OWNER OF THREE OTHER NICK-NAMES, NAMELY:
"THE GREAT JOHN TWIGG", "FLEET-FOOTED JOHN TWIGG", AND "STAMPING JOHN TWIGG",
who built himself a log cabin on the east side of the Sink Hole Bottom Pond at Twig town and went away and was gone for a long time.
WHEN HE RETURNED HE BROUGHT A BLACK-EYED, VERY DARK COMPLEXIONED BRIDE WITH HIM, AND IT WAS SOON TALKED ABOUT THE NEIGHBORHOOD THAT SHE WAS AN INDIAN SQUAW.

Be that as it may, she was a good woman and a very wonderful one, for she bore and reared to manhood twelve stalwart, black-eyed, black-haired, swarthy skinned sons,
and the thirteenth born was a daughter named Savilla, who lived to care for her mother when she was old.
This good woman who had to mother this family of twelve sons and one daughter, and do most of the providing for them,
for John of the black eyes was a great hunter, which means he was a no-account, ne'er-do-well farmer.
So if she was not an Indian woman, she at least had an Indian woman's strength, thrift and intimate knowledge of extracting a living
from God's great out-of-doors and the industry of her own hands. Her husband, the "Great John Twigg," was a roistering,
jovial giant and possessed of tremendous strength and hardihood. He was always present when there was anything going on.
No distance was too great for him to cover to be present at a chicken-fight or man-fight, corn husking, woodchopping,
barn or house raising, public sale, election or circus for a half hundred miles around.

The writer tried for months to find out from the oldest Twiggs living, and their oldest neighbors, what was the name of black-eyed John Twigg's wife,
and all that he could get from them was that she had always gone by the name of "Mummy" Twigg. Finally in desperation he went to the Court House
and found that she had, on the sixteenth day of May, 1837, made her last will and testament, and had it witnessed by John North, David Twigg, her blue-eyed son-in-law,
and Samuel Dannison, and her will reads like any other white woman's will; it says: "I, Ruth, bequeath to my sons Nathan, Elias, Francis, Brice, Greenbury, Osborn, Simon,
Aden, John, Robert, Sela and Ely, each the sum of twenty-five cents. All the rest and residue of my property both real and personal, to my daughter Savilla, and I
hereby constitute and appoint my daughter Savilla Twigg to be my sole executrix of this my last will and testament."

[Since "Indians" had very limited legal rights, it is highly likely that the name "Ruth Farmer" was created by the blue-eyed Twiggs]

"Mummy" Ruth Twigg stuck to the girl who stood by her through thick and thin to the end. The writer has heard it said that "MUMMY" TWIGG WAS MISS RUTH FARMER
OUT OF THE DEEP WOODS OF BEDFORD COUNTY, PENNSYLVANIA, ON UPPER FLINTSTONE CREEK, and that she was of an excellent family.
Her twelve sons all married and raised large families and her daughter Savilla, left by her marriage with blue-eyed David Twigg five black-eyed children. .

THE STORY OF THE BLACK-EYED TWIGGS, ACROSS ON THE EAST SIDE OF THE POND FROM WHERE OUR JOHN M. TWIGG WAS BORN AND GREW UP,
HAS BEEN INCLUDED IN THIS BIOGRAPHY OF JOHN M. TWIGG, THE FOURTH OF HIS LINE, WITH HIS CONSENT, FOR THE PURPOSE OF PERPETUATING THE HISTORY OF ALL OF THE TWIGGS OF TWIGGTOWN,
FROM WHENCE THEY RAPIDLY SPREAD THROUGHOUT THE WHOLE COUNTY.

Hannah Jemima (Wilson) Twigg, wife of our John M. Twigg, was the daughter of Amon and Alley Wilson.

She had two brothers, Eli and William, and two sisters, Mary Susan and Martha Anne. Her father, universally known as "Uncle Amon" Wilson, was a very unusual man.
He possessed a dominating individuality and tireless energy. He was a great landowner and the foremost man of Murley's Branch in his generation.

When John M. Twigg married Hannah Jemima Wilson he united the two most numerous and greatest landowning families of all the Murley's Branch section.
There were four different families by the name of Wilson who came into the lower Murley's Branch and Flintstone neighborhoods about the same time.
And these families of Wilsons soon got busy intermarrying, as did the Twiggs, so that their present relationship is a mosaic of lineage.

John M. Twigg, like all of his line, is an ardent Democrat. He is a director of the Peoples Bank of Cumberland.
He is a member of the Southern Methodist Church, and a strong and staunch supporter of his church always and an ardent Sunday school scholar.
His friends believe in him, trust him, love him. He is a good neighbor, a good citizen and a man in the fullest sense of that often misapplied word.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
TWIGG "BRANCHES" RECONCILE
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This is not the end of the story of the "black-eyed" Twiggs and the "blue-eyed" Twiggs nor of Sink Hole Bottom.
In 1832, David Twigg, son of John of Rebecca, unmarried and 30, began buying parts of what had been the original
Twigg homestead from the heirs of John Twigg of Robert, Jr.

In 1836, his brother, John M. who had married Elizabeth Johnson in 1809 and had completed his family of 8 children,
joined in the final purchase. During the years that followed,

DAVID COURTED RUTH'S DAUGHTER, SAVILLA, AND SOMETIME AFTER RUTH'S DEATH THEY MARRIED.

SHAWNEE SETTLEMENT AT ANTIETAM CREEK
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Wilderness Trail

"In March, 1721, Bezaillion had a trading post near Paxtang, "about thirty-six miles higher up on Sasquehannah " than Conestoga; and in
May, 1728, he acted with Nicholas and John Scull as interpreters at an Indian conference in Philadelphia. HE WAS REPORTED, AS EARLY AS 1708,
TO HAVE JOINED WITH JAMES LE TORT AND MARTIN CHARTIER IN BUILDING CABINS ON THE UPPER BRANCHES OF POTOMAC (ANTIETAM AND CONOCOCHEAGUE CREEKS,
in what is now Franklin County, Pennsylvania, and also had a trading post near Paxtang, as we have seen. Peter Bezaillion died in 1742, at the age
of eighty."

http://www.wvgenweb.org/clay/israel.htm

"An irony surrounds the life of Israel Friend. He made his life
trading with, and living with, the Shawnee in their upper Potomac
territory. We know that others had tried to settle in this area, because
IN 1706 THE SHAWNEE FILED A PROTEST WITH THE GOVERNMENT AGAINST TWO
WHITES who had built a cabin among them.(35) Those settlers were ejected
by the authorities." (35)Schildknecht, Monocacy and Catoctin, Volume 1, page 50;Heritage Books

http://www.perrinhistory.net/Narrative/ ... aders.html

"On 24 Feb. 1707/8, it is recorded in the Pennsylvania Provincial Council that the Indians protested that “Mitchel”, a Swiss, Peter Bezalion, James LeTort, Martin Chartier, a “boy” from Phila., Frank from Canada, and a Frenchman from Va., had built houses upon the Potomac. Mitchel (Michel) was the leader. All were traders. Note the French names that had penetrated this area. Some of these names will be revisited later. They had made a trading camp at Harper’s Ferry in 1706 . Because they were not licensed to trade in this area, these men were evicted, and further white trade is not found along the upper Potomac till years later. This is an instance where a treaty with the Natives was enforced, and white encroachment was withdrawn."

"The confirmation that Israel Friend was the only permanent white
settler on the upper Potomac during all this period comes from a letter
to the Maryland Assembly, dated 12 January, 1731/2, which reads: "I,
Captain Civility make bold with these few lines, for I certainly did hear
as their intention to take the land from us if possible... above Andahetem
(Antietam) and I heartily desire you not to do it...for we are very much
disturbed and I would have you not to press too much upon us for we have
given no body of Land yet but Israel Friend at the mouth of Andahetem...
mark of Captain Civility (Sivilite) and Toyl Hangue.(12)"

"Hence, in the words of two of the chiefs who had granted [Friend] his deed in
1727, he was the only white living in that area before 1732."

..."In the meantime, [Friend] seems to have lost title to his land along
Antietam Creek. Though no documents have yet been found to verify it, the
"legend" says that IN 1736 THE MARYLAND GOVERNOR DECLARED THAT NATIVES
HAD NO RIGHT TO MAKE LEGALLY-BINDING DOCUMENTS, and hence the 1727 deed
was declared invalid. The governor confiscated the land along Antietam
Creek and the Potomac River, estimated by some researchers to be 72
square miles"

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SHAWNEE HARBOR FUGITIVE SLAVES
http://www.wvgenweb.org/clay/israel.htm
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"The issue of the Shawnee harboring escaped slaves was to be a bone of contention
for over two decades. Their principal chief for many years was Opessa, who lived
in Pennsylvania and the area of Cecil County, Maryland, circa 1697-1700. Around 1711 he
moved to what became known as Opessa's Town on the upper Potomac, now Oldtown.
He is known to have argued against returning slaves to the whites,
and his influence was felt for many years after his death, estimated at about 1720.
...As early as 1722, Andrew Friend's trading partner Charles Anderson had been asked
to travel up the "Potomack" River to forge an agreement with the Shawnee about harboring
slaves.(8)

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
MUMMY'S HOME: RAYSTOWN (BEDFORD) UNDER QUEEN ALLEQUIPPA (SENECA protecting SHAWNEE and LENNI LENAPE)
The Wilderness Trail:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Besides the Shawnee settlements in Pennsylvania and New Jersey ^
which have already been noted, there was another of their clans seated
on the North Branch of the Potomac, a short distance above the mouth
of the South Branch, at what has ever since their departure been called
Old Town, in Allegany County, Maryland.

Captain Thomas Cresap settled here in 1741, at which time it was known as
Shawnee Old Town^ being then only the abandoned site of their former village,
the inhabitants of which had, some time before 1732, removed to the Allegheny
and Conemaugh valleys, below Kittanning, in western Pennsylvania.

In 1729, Captain Civility, Chief of the Conestogas, wrote to Governor Gordon
that "about two months ago, the Southern Indians [Catawba? or Cherokee?] killed
and took nine of the Shawaners, living on a branch of Potomac, near the Great Mountains;
the which impute to their own fauilt, for settling so near their enemies. "

Opakethwa and Opakeita, two chiefs of the Potomac Shawnees
from Ohio, visited Philadelphia in September, 1732, after they had abandoned
their town on the North Branch of the Potomac and removed to
the Allegheny. The Governor asked them why they had gone so far
back into the woods as Allegheny. They replied, that "formerly they
lived at Patowmack, where their king died; that, having lost him, they
knew not what to do ; that they then took their wives and children and
went over the mountains [to Allegheny] to live. "^

JOHN WRAY, THE TRADER, WHO HAD FORMERLY TRADED AT WHAT WAS AFTER-
WARDS CALLED RAYS TOWN (NOW BEDFORD), CAME DOWN FROM ALLEGHENY TO
PHILADELPHIA WITH THESE SHAWNEE CHIEFS [Opakethwa and Opakeita,
two chiefs of the Potomac Shawnees from Ohio ] IN SEPTEMBER, 1732, TO SERVE
AS INTERPRETER. Prior to 1732, John Wray's trading was doubtless carried
on with the Shawnees at their "Old Town," on the Potomac, and with
the Conestogas and Mingoes who had settled at the original Allequippa's
Town, very near the site of what was afterwards Raystown. Both of
these Indian villages were on the Warrior's Path, which extended south-
wards from Frankstown to the Potomac; and they were but little more
than thirty miles apart.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
THAWKILA
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Sewickley. A former village of the Shawnee, called by the early Indian traders Asswikales (see Hathawekela),
later shortened to Swickleys, situated on the n. side of the Allegheny r., about 12 m. above Pittsburg,
near the site of Springdale, Allegheny co., Pa.

IN THE NOTES GIVEN IN THE TABLE OF DISTANCES BY JAMES LE TORT BEFORE THE PENNSYLVANIA COUNCIL (1731),
HE SPEAKS OF 50 FAMILIES OF THESE ASSWIKALES “LATELY FROM CAROLINA TO POTOWMACK, & FROM THENCE THITHER;
MAKING 100 MEN; AQUELOMA, THEIR CHIEF.”

... These Shawnee, a short time before, had settled on the w. branches of the Susquehanna,
whence they moved to the Conemaugh, then down the Kiskiminetas to the Allegheny....
A number of these Shawnee were located along the streams in Westmoreland co., hence the name for Sewickley cr., Sewickley settlement, etc.
The town on the Allegheny is noted on Bonnecamp’s map of 1749 as “Ancien Village des Chaouanons”,
through which place Celeron de Bienville passed in that year....
Sewickly’s old T.—Evans map, 1755. Sewicklys Old Town.—Scull map, 1770; Pownall map, 1776. Village des Chaouanons.—Bonnecamp map, 1749."

MUMMY'S WILL 1837
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
RUTH (FARMER) TWIGG IS MY 4TH GREAT-GRANDMOTHER. SHE WAS THE WIFE OF THE INFAMOUS
"FLEETFOOT" JOHN TWIGG,. THIS MARRIAGE IS BELIEVED TO HAVE TAKEN PLACE AROUND 1784.
It is from the story that Ruth (Farmer) Twigg was an Indian that the legend grew
of the black-eyed and blue-eyed Twiggs. This story has been with us for around
two centuries. It has been documented in just about every writing I have seen in
reference to Allegany Co. history, including The History of Allegany County Maryland
(1923). There are descendants of "Fleetfoot" John and Ruth (Farmer) Twigg who, to
this day believe they are Indian. There are just as many believe Ruth was the daughter
of John or Elias Farmer of Bedford Co. PA. Neither has been proven or disproven.

Following is a copy of Ruth (Farmer) Twigg's will written 16 May 1837 and probated
14 February 1838 (Allegany Co. Wills A:418). There have been no spelling corrections.
MAKE NOTE THAT THE WITNESS DAVID TWIGG, LATER MARRIED SEVILLA TWIGG, RUTH'S DAUGHTER.
This marriage is believed to have taken place arount 1841, after Ruth's death.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT OF RUTH (FARMER) TWIGG:

In the name of God, Amen: I, Ruth Twigg of Allegany County in the State of Maryland
being sick and weak in body but of sound disposing mind, memory and understanding
considering the certainty of death and the uncertainty of the time thereof and being
desirous to settle my worldly affairs and thereby be better prepared to leave this
world when it shall please God to call me hence do therefore make and publish this my
last will and testament in manner and form following, that is to say;

First and principally, I commit my soul into the hands of Almighty God and my body
to the earth to be deacently buried at the discretion of my executor hereinafter
named and after my debts and funeral charges are paid, I devise and bequeath as
follows:

First I give and bequeath unto my sons
Nathan Twigg,
Elias Twigg,
Francis Twigg,

Since control of the Loyal Shawnee was rested from Don Greenfeather by the Dennings family,
they have been turned down for casino licenses in both Oklahoma and Kansas,
because of the Denning family's criminal past,
and are now desperate to get them in other states where the Shawnee resided.

As Kelly Denning put it:

Your knowledge of Oklahoma Indian tribes is very lacking... your knowledge of my family is more lacking ;D

Let me explain to you the facts, and like Walter, you two like to try to force fiction into fitting anywhere you want...

I was born in 1959, my fathers name was Lemuel Charley Squirrel, aka Charley Squirrel, in 1964 my dad decided to change our names, he changed his name to Charles Brewer.. therefore, I have no blood connection to any Brewer living or dead. So you went off on a frenzy for nothing at all.. you could have just asked and I would have told you...

I have NEVER volunteered for the Police Department! Never ever.. I have worked in Juvenile Corrections for the Sheriff's Dept. and I volunteer researching history of the department. I also work on a Jane Doe homicide case, my part in that is to seek missing persons who could be our Jane Doe.. because somewhere, she has a child, somewhere someone knows who she was, she was a victim of a violent crime, and her name has been taken away... I visit her grave, she deserves to be remembered.

Let me make clear to you, I am not a cop, never been a cop, I have no desire to be a cop. Do you understand?

More on my father, he was murdered in Vinita, Oklahoma in 1992, the Chief of Police there knows me and has met me... He knows my dads real name..

There is a book written by the son of a bootlegger, in that book there is a chapter written about my dad, known as Charley Squirrel, he and Bobby Bluejacket were cousins, and best of friends... if you take the time to google Bobby Bluejacket you will find one of the first things that comes up will be his conviction for murder in Oklahoma... he got let out of prison very early... the case is right there online ;D

Try to get to know my family :D get the right ones now, other than going and making stuff up as you go along...

And for the spam you posted from other boards and chats.. I didnt really read it, because of your history of taking things and twisting it to suit your needs.. I wouldnt believe anything you posted..." End Keely's description of her family's criminal past as moonshiners.

Now if Keely and her friends' ears are too delicate to hear the word "squaw",
it is not my problem.

What is my problem is when they slander me,
and block Al Carroll in his attempts to post the truth of the matter.
I had my DNA run in 2006, and it matches the geneaology.

But on a larger scale there is another problem,
which is the Denning's complete lack of respect for the Eastern Shawnee, the Absentee Shawnee, and the Kettle Point Band of Shawnee in Canada.

The only thing I care to share here is that there is no way in hell
any of the Denning's will ever get casino rights in Maryland.

I expect that the keepers of the tribal histories in the states where the Shawnee sought refuge
when they were attacked by the Five Nations
will clarify the Dennings' status if and when they show up in those states.

ACCOUNT OF BLACK EYED TWIGGS BY JOHN M. TWIGG born December 24, 1845, at Twiggtown, Allegany County, Maryland
http://www.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~mdall ... -twigg.htm
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

But as prolific as were the progeny of the original three blue-eyed Twigg brothers, John, Robert and Francis,
they were far outnumbered by the black-eyed Twiggs by the end of the third generation, all of whom, it would seem,
sprang from their single progenitor, BLACK-EYED JOHN TWIGG, WHO WAS THE OWNER OF THREE OTHER NICK-NAMES, NAMELY:
"THE GREAT JOHN TWIGG", "FLEET-FOOTED JOHN TWIGG", AND "STAMPING JOHN TWIGG",
who built himself a log cabin on the east side of the Sink Hole Bottom Pond at Twig town and went away and was gone for a long time.
WHEN HE RETURNED HE BROUGHT A BLACK-EYED, VERY DARK COMPLEXIONED BRIDE WITH HIM, AND IT WAS SOON TALKED ABOUT THE NEIGHBORHOOD THAT SHE WAS AN INDIAN SQUAW.

Be that as it may, she was a good woman and a very wonderful one, for she bore and reared to manhood twelve stalwart, black-eyed, black-haired, swarthy skinned sons,
and the thirteenth born was a daughter named Savilla, who lived to care for her mother when she was old.
This good woman who had to mother this family of twelve sons and one daughter, and do most of the providing for them,
for John of the black eyes was a great hunter, which means he was a no-account, ne'er-do-well farmer.
So if she was not an Indian woman, she at least had an Indian woman's strength, thrift and intimate knowledge of extracting a living
from God's great out-of-doors and the industry of her own hands. Her husband, the "Great John Twigg," was a roistering,
jovial giant and possessed of tremendous strength and hardihood. He was always present when there was anything going on.
No distance was too great for him to cover to be present at a chicken-fight or man-fight, corn husking, woodchopping,
barn or house raising, public sale, election or circus for a half hundred miles around.

The writer tried for months to find out from the oldest Twiggs living, and their oldest neighbors, what was the name of black-eyed John Twigg's wife,
and all that he could get from them was that she had always gone by the name of "Mummy" Twigg. Finally in desperation he went to the Court House
and found that she had, on the sixteenth day of May, 1837, made her last will and testament, and had it witnessed by John North, David Twigg, her blue-eyed son-in-law,
and Samuel Dannison, and her will reads like any other white woman's will; it says: "I, Ruth, bequeath to my sons Nathan, Elias, Francis, Brice, Greenbury, Osborn, Simon,
Aden, John, Robert, Sela and Ely, each the sum of twenty-five cents. All the rest and residue of my property both real and personal, to my daughter Savilla, and I
hereby constitute and appoint my daughter Savilla Twigg to be my sole executrix of this my last will and testament."

[Since "Indians" had very limited legal rights, it is highly likely that the name "Ruth Farmer" was created by the blue-eyed Twiggs]

"Mummy" Ruth Twigg stuck to the girl who stood by her through thick and thin to the end. The writer has heard it said that "MUMMY" TWIGG WAS MISS RUTH FARMER
OUT OF THE DEEP WOODS OF BEDFORD COUNTY, PENNSYLVANIA, ON UPPER FLINTSTONE CREEK, and that she was of an excellent family.
Her twelve sons all married and raised large families and her daughter Savilla, left by her marriage with blue-eyed David Twigg five black-eyed children. .

THE STORY OF THE BLACK-EYED TWIGGS, ACROSS ON THE EAST SIDE OF THE POND FROM WHERE OUR JOHN M. TWIGG WAS BORN AND GREW UP,
HAS BEEN INCLUDED IN THIS BIOGRAPHY OF JOHN M. TWIGG, THE FOURTH OF HIS LINE, WITH HIS CONSENT, FOR THE PURPOSE OF PERPETUATING THE HISTORY OF ALL OF THE TWIGGS OF TWIGGTOWN,
FROM WHENCE THEY RAPIDLY SPREAD THROUGHOUT THE WHOLE COUNTY.

Hannah Jemima (Wilson) Twigg, wife of our John M. Twigg, was the daughter of Amon and Alley Wilson.

She had two brothers, Eli and William, and two sisters, Mary Susan and Martha Anne. Her father, universally known as "Uncle Amon" Wilson, was a very unusual man.
He possessed a dominating individuality and tireless energy. He was a great landowner and the foremost man of Murley's Branch in his generation.

When John M. Twigg married Hannah Jemima Wilson he united the two most numerous and greatest landowning families of all the Murley's Branch section.
There were four different families by the name of Wilson who came into the lower Murley's Branch and Flintstone neighborhoods about the same time.
And these families of Wilsons soon got busy intermarrying, as did the Twiggs, so that their present relationship is a mosaic of lineage.

John M. Twigg, like all of his line, is an ardent Democrat. He is a director of the Peoples Bank of Cumberland.
He is a member of the Southern Methodist Church, and a strong and staunch supporter of his church always and an ardent Sunday school scholar.
His friends believe in him, trust him, love him. He is a good neighbor, a good citizen and a man in the fullest sense of that often misapplied word.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
TWIGG "BRANCHES" RECONCILE
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This is not the end of the story of the "black-eyed" Twiggs and the "blue-eyed" Twiggs nor of Sink Hole Bottom.
In 1832, David Twigg, son of John of Rebecca, unmarried and 30, began buying parts of what had been the original
Twigg homestead from the heirs of John Twigg of Robert, Jr.

In 1836, his brother, John M. who had married Elizabeth Johnson in 1809 and had completed his family of 8 children,
joined in the final purchase. During the years that followed,

DAVID COURTED RUTH'S DAUGHTER, SAVILLA, AND SOMETIME AFTER RUTH'S DEATH THEY MARRIED.

IT IS POSSIBLE THAT SINCE THE FRENCH & INDIAN WAR(1754-1763) CREATED A HOSTILE ENVIRONMENT IN THE AREA,
THE COUPLE MOVED THEIR FAMILY EAST TOWARD PRESENT DAY FREDERICK FOR A SAFE HAVEN.

SHAWNEE SETTLEMENT AT ANTIETAM CREEK
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Wilderness Trail

"In March, 1721, Bezaillion had a trading post near Paxtang, "about thirty-six miles higher up on Sasquehannah " than Conestoga; and in
May, 1728, he acted with Nicholas and John Scull as interpreters at an Indian conference in Philadelphia. HE WAS REPORTED, AS EARLY AS 1708,
TO HAVE JOINED WITH JAMES LE TORT AND MARTIN CHARTIER IN BUILDING CABINS ON THE UPPER BRANCHES OF POTOMAC (ANTIETAM AND CONOCOCHEAGUE CREEKS,
in what is now Franklin County, Pennsylvania, and also had a trading post near Paxtang, as we have seen. Peter Bezaillion died in 1742, at the age
of eighty."

http://www.wvgenweb.org/clay/israel.htm

"An irony surrounds the life of Israel Friend. He made his life
trading with, and living with, the Shawnee in their upper Potomac
territory. We know that others had tried to settle in this area, because
IN 1706 THE SHAWNEE FILED A PROTEST WITH THE GOVERNMENT AGAINST TWO
WHITES who had built a cabin among them.(35) Those settlers were ejected
by the authorities." (35)Schildknecht, Monocacy and Catoctin, Volume 1, page 50;Heritage Books

http://www.perrinhistory.net/Narrative/ ... aders.html

"On 24 Feb. 1707/8, it is recorded in the Pennsylvania Provincial Council that the Indians protested that “Mitchel”, a Swiss, Peter Bezalion, James LeTort, Martin Chartier, a “boy” from Phila., Frank from Canada, and a Frenchman from Va., had built houses upon the Potomac. Mitchel (Michel) was the leader. All were traders. Note the French names that had penetrated this area. Some of these names will be revisited later. They had made a trading camp at Harper’s Ferry in 1706 . Because they were not licensed to trade in this area, these men were evicted, and further white trade is not found along the upper Potomac till years later. This is an instance where a treaty with the Natives was enforced, and white encroachment was withdrawn."

"The confirmation that Israel Friend was the only permanent white
settler on the upper Potomac during all this period comes from a letter
to the Maryland Assembly, dated 12 January, 1731/2, which reads: "I,
Captain Civility make bold with these few lines, for I certainly did hear
as their intention to take the land from us if possible... above Andahetem
(Antietam) and I heartily desire you not to do it...for we are very much
disturbed and I would have you not to press too much upon us for we have
given no body of Land yet but Israel Friend at the mouth of Andahetem...
mark of Captain Civility (Sivilite) and Toyl Hangue.(12)"

"Hence, in the words of two of the chiefs who had granted [Friend] his deed in
1727, he was the only white living in that area before 1732."

..."In the meantime, [Friend] seems to have lost title to his land along
Antietam Creek. Though no documents have yet been found to verify it, the
"legend" says that IN 1736 THE MARYLAND GOVERNOR DECLARED THAT NATIVES
HAD NO RIGHT TO MAKE LEGALLY-BINDING DOCUMENTS, and hence the 1727 deed
was declared invalid. The governor confiscated the land along Antietam
Creek and the Potomac River, estimated by some researchers to be 72
square miles"

SHAWNEE HARBOR FUGITIVE SLAVES
http://www.wvgenweb.org/clay/israel.htm
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"The issue of the Shawnee harboring escaped slaves was to be a bone of contention
for over two decades. Their principal chief for many years was Opessa, who lived
in Pennsylvania and the area of Cecil County, Maryland, circa 1697-1700. Around 1711 he
moved to what became known as Opessa's Town on the upper Potomac, now Oldtown.
He is known to have argued against returning slaves to the whites,
and his influence was felt for many years after his death, estimated at about 1720.
...As early as 1722, Andrew Friend's trading partner Charles Anderson had been asked
to travel up the "Potomack" River to forge an agreement with the Shawnee about harboring
slaves.(8)

The Wilderness Trail:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Besides the Shawnee settlements in Pennsylvania and New Jersey ^
which have already been noted, there was another of their clans seated
on the North Branch of the Potomac, a short distance above the mouth
of the South Branch, at what has ever since their departure been called
Old Town, in Allegany County, Maryland.

Captain Thomas Cresap settled here in 1741, at which time it was known as
Shawnee Old Town^ being then only the abandoned site of their former village,
the inhabitants of which had, some time before 1732, removed to the Allegheny
and Conemaugh valleys, below Kittanning, in western Pennsylvania.

In 1729, Captain Civility, Chief of the Conestogas, wrote to Governor Gordon
that "about two months ago, the Southern Indians [Catawba? or Cherokee?] killed
and took nine of the Shawaners, living on a branch of Potomac, near the Great Mountains;
the which impute to their own fauilt, for settling so near their enemies. "

Opakethwa and Opakeita, two chiefs of the Potomac Shawnees
from Ohio, visited Philadelphia in September, 1732, after they had abandoned
their town on the North Branch of the Potomac and removed to
the Allegheny. The Governor asked them why they had gone so far
back into the woods as Allegheny. They replied, that "formerly they
lived at Patowmack, where their king died; that, having lost him, they
knew not what to do ; that they then took their wives and children and
went over the mountains [to Allegheny] to live. "^

JOHN WRAY, THE TRADER, WHO HAD FORMERLY TRADED AT WHAT WAS AFTER-
WARDS CALLED RAYS TOWN (NOW BEDFORD), CAME DOWN FROM ALLEGHENY TO
PHILADELPHIA WITH THESE SHAWNEE CHIEFS [Opakethwa and Opakeita,
two chiefs of the Potomac Shawnees from Ohio ] IN SEPTEMBER, 1732, TO SERVE
AS INTERPRETER. Prior to 1732, John Wray's trading was doubtless carried
on with the Shawnees at their "Old Town," on the Potomac, and with
the Conestogas and Mingoes who had settled at the original Allequippa's
Town, very near the site of what was afterwards Raystown. Both of
these Indian villages were on the Warrior's Path, which extended south-
wards from Frankstown to the Potomac; and they were but little more
than thirty miles apart.

"Sewickley. A former village of the Shawnee, called by the early Indian traders Asswikales (see Hathawekela),
later shortened to Swickleys, situated on the n. side of the Allegheny r., about 12 m. above Pittsburg,
near the site of Springdale, Allegheny co., Pa.

IN THE NOTES GIVEN IN THE TABLE OF DISTANCES BY JAMES LE TORT BEFORE THE PENNSYLVANIA COUNCIL (1731),
HE SPEAKS OF 50 FAMILIES OF THESE ASSWIKALES “LATELY FROM CAROLINA TO POTOWMACK, & FROM THENCE THITHER;
MAKING 100 MEN; AQUELOMA, THEIR CHIEF.”

... These Shawnee, a short time before, had settled on the w. branches of the Susquehanna,
whence they moved to the Conemaugh, then down the Kiskiminetas to the Allegheny....
A number of these Shawnee were located along the streams in Westmoreland co., hence the name for Sewickley cr., Sewickley settlement, etc.
The town on the Allegheny is noted on Bonnecamp’s map of 1749 as “Ancien Village des Chaouanons”,
through which place Celeron de Bienville passed in that year....

MUMMY'S WILL 1837
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
RUTH (FARMER) TWIGG IS MY 4TH GREAT-GRANDMOTHER. SHE WAS THE WIFE OF THE INFAMOUS
"FLEETFOOT" JOHN TWIGG,. THIS MARRIAGE IS BELIEVED TO HAVE TAKEN PLACE AROUND 1784.
It is from the story that Ruth (Farmer) Twigg was an Indian that the legend grew
of the black-eyed and blue-eyed Twiggs. This story has been with us for around
two centuries. It has been documented in just about every writing I have seen in
reference to Allegany Co. history, including The History of Allegany County Maryland
(1923). There are descendants of "Fleetfoot" John and Ruth (Farmer) Twigg who, to
this day believe they are Indian. There are just as many believe Ruth was the daughter
of John or Elias Farmer of Bedford Co. PA. Neither has been proven or disproven.

Following is a copy of Ruth (Farmer) Twigg's will written 16 May 1837 and probated
14 February 1838 (Allegany Co. Wills A:418). There have been no spelling corrections.
MAKE NOTE THAT THE WITNESS DAVID TWIGG, LATER MARRIED SEVILLA TWIGG, RUTH'S DAUGHTER.
This marriage is believed to have taken place arount 1841, after Ruth's death.

Well, simon, they say Christ advised to love your enemies.

So you are repenting of your frauds and lies? Very wise for someone in your condition but remember, you must repent. Forgiveness must be asked for :D

Try reading a book called the bible the NT in particular and in future do not try to argue with people who know vastly more than you do. And drop the racism and the peversions
