According to "Draper Manuscript Collection," Pages: 82-276 entry from 17S82: Sam'l McColloch lost an arm in a hunting accident in 1791 near Gallipolis, Ohio. He was Commisary Sergeant in the War of 1812 serving under John Piatt of Cincinatti.

Page 276: "From an interview with Reverend George McColloch, born May 1, 1790. Resides near Zanesfield, Ohio (his place of origin), son of Samuel McColloch, who died November, 1814, age 47, near Urbana when on a journey to Chillicothe, his home being in Logan County on the Mad River.

In 1791, when on a hunting trip near Gallipolis, his gun accidently discharged and shattered his right arm - it was amputated. He was on many scouting parties at that period. No particulars. Served as commissary under John Piatt of Cincinatti in War 1812. He was two or three times chosen a member of the Ohio Legislature and attended at Chillicothe and had previously served as Sheriff of Ohio Co, VA."

It appears that after Nancy's death, the youngest children were sent to the home of their Uncle, John Boggs, on the Scioto, Ohio, and they were reared by him. John Boggs married Nancy's sister, Sarah McMechen. It also may be that when Samuel died any remaining minor children might have also been sent to their Uncle John, to be raised.

Here the family grew up. and William moved into Piqua, where he died; he had one son and one daughter; the former was killed in the late Rebellion. Benjamin never married, and died in 1873, in Crawford Co. George, the eldest (and Solomon's father), is the only survivor of the family; he was born May 1, 1790, in what is now Ohio Co., Va.; he still resides where they settled when the family came to this county. During his early life his attention was devoted to farming, and when quite young he married, which event was solemnized June 8, 1809, with Nancy, eldest daughter of George Henry. He was a native of Virginia, and came here with his family of four boys and fire girls about 1806. Mr. McColloch's fatally consisted of eleven children, nine of whom lived to maturity; five of whom are surviving and reside in this county, viz: George, Benjamin, John. Mary. L, now Mrs. Marquis, and Solomon. Being a man of considerable ability, and a devoted Christian, he was called as minister to care for the spiritual wants of his people, and was ordained in 1829, a Baptist of the "old school," his first charge being the "Tharp's Run" congregation. Solomon lived with his parents until about 19 years of age, when he entered the store of Patterson & McCollbch, at Bellefontaine, as clerk, and remained with them about two years; he then returned to the farm and worked about two years, when he was employed by Riddle & Rutan, of Bellefontaine, to go into Iowa and buy and ship hogs for them direct to New York, which business he followed for one year. After his return he married Julia A. Wonders, Jan. 1, 1857; she was born Oct. 30, 1835, in Cumberland Co., Pa., but came here with her parents before she was two years old. They have three children - Norah E., Charles E. and Mary J. When they were married he rented a farm of his brother, where they lived seven years, and then moved to what was the Dawson estate, in April, 1864, and in 1869 they bought 229 1/4 acres of good land, which he is getting in a good state of cultivation.

NOTE:  This page is in a stage of flux at this time. I am in the process of verifying as much information as I can through census records and this has already provided some corrections and interesting situations. More census transcripts will be added frequently.

The "Draper Manuscripts", "Doddridge's Notes" and the like provide important clues in ancestral research, flesh out information and are colorful narratives, but they are on occasion incorrect.
