Emigration to America
From The Scotch-Irish in America by Henry Jones Ford
It is highly probable that Thomas Wilson, another minister known to have been in Somerset County at this period, was also from the Laggan Presbytery. The Presbytery records have several entries in regard to Thomas Wilson between 1674 and 1678. It appears that he was pastor of Killybegs, a parish on the western coast of Donegal, where he was having great difficulty in getting a living. An entry of July 3, 1678, notes that Killybegs has paid him only twelve pounds a year for the past two years, with no prospects of improvement. From 1681 to 1691 there is a blank in the Presbytery minutes, but when they resume there is no further mention of Killybegs or Wilson. But a Thomas Wilson appears in the Maryland land records as acquiring from Colonel William Stevens on May 20, 1681, a parcel of land called Darby, containing 350 acres. He was the first pastor of the Presbyterian Church at Manokin, and as its pastor is mentioned in the will of John Galbraith, 1691, and the will of David Brown, 1697. [end quote]³

Migrat ion from Ulster
The early migrations, 1649 – 1717
by Richard MacMaster
Appeal to Laggan Presbytery Brings Four Ministers to the Eastern Shore
Presbyterians in Ulster suffered under restrictive laws. In 1681 the Bishop of Raphoe ordered the arrest of four leaders of Laggan Presbytery, William Traille, minister at Lifford, the moderator, and the clerk and two other ministers, for observing a day of fasting and prayer set by Presbytery. They were imprisoned.

In 1683 Revs. William Traille and Francis Makemie sailed for Maryland. They were probably accompanied by two other ministers, Rev. Thomas Wilson, pastor at Killybegs, Co. Donegal, and Rev. Samuel Davis. At the end of that year Somerset County Court heard a rumor about "four Thousand pounds of tobacco raysed out of ye County for encouragement of Ministers lately arrived here." (Tobacco was used as money in Maryland and Virginia.)

Rev. William Traille became the first pastor of Rehoboth Presbyterian Church, located near and named for Colonel William Stevens’ plantation on Manokin River, in 1683. He patented land called "Brother's Love" and "Killeleagh," but he returned to Ulster in 1690, leaving his wife Eleanor to sell the property to Archibald White, a weaver, in 1691 and join him in Ireland. Rev. Thomas Wilson served the Manokin Presbyterian Church on the upper reaches of the Manokin River, near the town of Princess Anne, until his death in 1702. Rev. Samuel Davis organized the Snow Hill congregation in present Worcester County, with a meeting house in the newly laid out town of Snow Hill in 1686. He went to Lewes, Delaware, in 1698 and returned to Snow Hill for a second pastorate in 1718-1725.

After itinerating in different places for a few years, Rev. Francis Makemie settled in Accomac County, Virginia in 1687. He married Naomi Anderson, daughter of William Anderson, a merchant and planter at Onancock, and served the church there.

Ulster Scots and the Economy
Thanks in part to the Ulster Scots who settled there, Somerset County had a more diversified economy than most parts of Maryland in the seventeenth century. Farming was the major occupation everywhere and tobacco the main crop. The new town of Snow Hill became a center for trade and attracted English, Scottish, and Scotch-Irish merchants, as did the town of Princess Anne a few years later. Scotch-Irish settlers brought skills as weavers and cloth-making was important from the 1680s. "In 1688, when Maryland tobacco prices were the lowest ever over the colonial period, the Maryland Assembly sought to encourage economic diversification with acts authorizing the payment of bounties for various manufactures, among them cloth. The county courts were to levy taxes to pay these bounties. The response of the Somerset court was to seek permission from the Council to declare the act null and void in the county, where families were already producing enough cloth to make such bounties a heavy burden."

The Chesapeake region grew too much tobacco and much of what it shipped was of poor quality keeping prices low for another generation. In a pamphlet he published in 1705, A plain and friendly perswasive to the inhabitants of Virginia and Maryland, for promoting towns and cohabitation. By a well-wisher to both governments, Rev. Francis Makemie argued that more towns like Snow Hill and Onancock would improve the situation. Growers on marginal land or without resources to properly cure and pack their tobacco could produce food for town dwellers or move to town themselves and support their families as artisans or tradesmen.

Somerset County Supports King William
In 1689 an association in arms "for the defence of the Protestant religion and for asserting the right of King William and Queen Mary to the province of Maryland and all the English dominions" was formed. The associators turned out Lord Baltimore’s proprietary government as suspected Jacobites and declared for the new King and Queen. In Somerset County the Grand Jury presented a loyal address to William and Mary, asking their "Aid and Protection for securing our Religion lives and liberty under Protestant Governors and Government, and for enabling us to defend ourselves against all Invaders." It was signed by the justices of the county court and "many others that attended the court." Among the signers were many Ulster Scots, such as James Knox, William Alexander, Ephraim Wilson, John Knox, Thomas Wallis, Alexander Knox, Malcolm Knox, William Knox, William Polk, William Wilson, Richard Maklure, Alexander Mackcullah, William Alexander, Jr., Robert Polk, John McKnitt, John Strawbridge, Ninian Dunlap, James Henderson, James Duncan, William Fossit, John Starret, John Emmitt, Archibald Erskine, John Galbraith, John Macketterick, Thomas Strawbridge, Joseph Venables, [the three Presbyterian ministers:] Wm. Traile, Thomas Wilson, Samll. Davis [and justices]David Brown, Robert King and James Rounds. [end quote]³

      ; From Ancestry: [quote]He is known to be the son of Captain James Davis because he received a grant of land in Isle of Wight, as follows:

"Sir John Harley to Thomas Davis, 300 acres, Mar 6, 1633 page 128. Son and heir of James Davis, Gentleman late of Henrico, abutting east on Warwicksqueicke Creek about 2 miles from the mouth. In right of his father, an ancient planter, and for the transportation of George Cooke and Alice Mulleines who came in the "George" in 1617, and in the right of his mother, Rachell Davis, an ancient planter."

The Virginia Asssembly had decreed that planters who came at their own cost before the coming away of Sir Thomas Dale, that is prior to April 1616, should have on the first division of land, 100 acres for their own personal adventure and also the same for every single share, amounting to the sum of 12-10-0 paid into the London Company of Virginia. This was the reason that Captain Thomas Davis received this grant of land, as the heir of his father. His mother Rachell Davis was probably dead long before 1633. Thomas Davis had many other land grants, deeds and patents which can be viewed by clicking here.2,3

He was a Justice of Nansemond in 1654. He acquired lands in Somerset County, Maryland in 1662 and probably resided in Maryland for several years thereafter but returned to Virginia prior to his death.1

A Thomas Davis was Burgess for Warwick in 1655-58. This Thomas Davis, as "Major Thomas Davis," patented 500 acres in Warwick the 18th of March, 1662, 100 acres was at the head of his patent granted 10th of September, 1645, and adjoined 300 acres granted him 20th January, 1655 - land lay on Reedy Swamp at the head of Walter's Creek. In 1663 Thomas Davis was sheriff of Warwick. In 1671, land of Major Thomas Davis in Warwick was reported deserted. The question arises: Is this Major Thomas Davis of Warwick one and the same as Major Thomas Davis of Nansemond? Returning to Thomas Davis of Nansemond, in 1660, the General Assembly dismissed Mr. Thomas Davis from the Commission of Nansemond at his request. In 1674, Major Thomas Davis and Mr. Barneby Kearney were summonded to the grand jury and paid 200 pounds of tobacco as a fine for not appearing.
