From the files of The Mallory Surname DNA Study

William Mallory, Sr (1751-1839) of Virginia and Tennessee was a Patriot of the American Revolution.

Early Life

William Mallory was born 01 January 1751 in Virginia Colony, probably the son of Zachariah Mallory and Delisha "unknown". From the time of the original land grants, tobacco was the prime crop in the region. In the early 1700s, the wilderness had given way to small farms, larger plantations and self-governing communities. William Mallory was born into a time and place where settlers were still moving up streams and land patents were increasing.

It is likely that William Mallory was born and spent his early childhood in what was then St Martins Parish, between the North Anna River and South Anna River. From 1754, Rev. Robert Barrett was rector in St Martins Parish of the Anglican Church. Zachariah Mallory traded at the store at Fredericks Hall in Louisa County in 1756 when William Mallory was five years old.

08 Mar 1773, two (2) land transactions were recorded in Louisa, Virginia. William Mallory sold land to Benjamin Lewis, and Nathan Harris and wife, Sarah Knight sold land to Benjamin Lewis. (1) At the time, there were several individuals in the immediate area named "William Mallory". One of the others, the son of Thompson Mallory may be the William Mallory identified in some early Louisa, Virginia records.

12 Oct 1773, Zachariah Mallory then a resident of Hanover, Virginia became the first patient in the new hospital in Williamsburg, Virginia Colony.

In 1774 and 1775 William Mallory tithed in Trinity Parish, Louisa, Virginia.

On 10 April 1775, John Cosby, summoned to answer the complaint against him by Bird Hendrick, his apprentice, for sundry abuses, including not providing sufficient clothes, appeared and made his defense, but the Court, by sundry evidence being convinced that the said Apprentice has been ill treated, ordered said Hendrick be released from his indenture to Cosby and be bound to William Mallory. (2)

The first battles of the American Revolution began at Lexington and Concord Massachusetts 19 April, 1775 and on 14 June, 1775 the Continental Army was formed.

In Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, a vote was taken late in the afternoon of 04 July 1776. Nine of the thirteen colonies, including Virginia voted in favor of the Declaration of Independence.

Patriot in the American Revolution

1776

William Mallory was a 25 year old Louisa, Virginia Colony resident in January when he enlisted in the 3rd Virginia infantry Regiment of the Continental Line with Capt. Thomas Johnson at Louisa Courthouse, Louisa, Virginia. By 14 April, the 3rd Virginia was stationed along the Potomac River from Alexandria to Quantico Creek to Hampton in Virginia. Two days later, on 16 April, Colonel Hugh Mercer marched 3rd Regiment to Dumfries in Prince William, and then to Alexandria to collect arms and equipment to provide defense of the Potomac River.

In June, the 3rd Virginia was ordered from Alexandria to Williamsburg, Virginia. The following month, the 3rd Virginia was stationed on the Potomac 50 miles south of Dumfries, in Westmoreland, Virginia. In August, the 3rd Virginia left Virginia to join Gen. Washington's army in New York.

On 13 September, the 3rd Virginia joined the portion of Washington's army defending Harlem Heights, north of the city. Three days later, 16 September the 3rd Virginia advanced under orders from Washington himself in the Battle of Harlem Heights. In October, after the Battle of White Plains, Westchester, New York, Washington's army retreated to New Jersey where the 3rd Virginia formed its rear guard.

On 26 December, the 3rd Virginia participated in the decisive American Victory at "Battle of Trentown" in Burlington, New Jersey.

1777

The 3rd Virginia's winter encampment was in the Morristown area where they stayed until mid-February when they marched to Whippany Hanover Township for innoculation against smallpox. Captain Chilton reported that the Regiment "had the small pox very lightly generally."

The 3rd Virginia spent much of the spring and summer on picket duty in New Jersey. 12 July, the 3rd Virginia marched 17 miles north up the Hudson River toward General William Howe's forces. 13 July, they marched 15 miles. 14 July, they marched 11 miles. The 3rd Virginia stayed only one day, 23 July in Chester, Orange, New York before turning back south toward Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. 24 July, they marched 23 miles. 25 July, they marched 25 miles. 26 July, they marched 21 miles. On 31 July, the 3rd Virginia had a mishap while crossing the Delaware River when a wagon carrying many of the regiment's tents was lost.In August, the 3rd Virginia was stationed within a day's march of Philadelphia for most of the month.

11 September, the Continental Army's force of 14,600 including the 3rd Virginia was defeated in the Battle of Brandywine Creek near Chad's Ford in Pennsylvania. On 04 October, the 3rd Virginia was part of a force of 11,000 who marched 16 miles before being defeated in the Battle of Germantown in northwest portion of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The Continental Army retreated a few miles to the northwest in the hills at Whitemarsh where they encamped for six weeks.

On 05 December, the 3rd Virginia's 450 men were positioned at the hinge of Greene's line where the British light infantry's three pound guns battered them to exhaustion. Leaving Whitemarsh on 11 December, they began the bloody thirteen mile march along the old Gulf Road to Valley Forge, a village on the west bank of the Schuylkill River. Their encampment there began on 19 December. Lacking proper provisions, they suffered starvation, disease and bitter cold.

Migration and Later Life in Tennessee

Some time between 1816 and 1820, William Mallory, Sr and his growing second family migrated from Virginia to Wilson County in middle Tennessee. Wilson County had been established 26 October 1799, only three years after the organization of the State. Wilson County's southern boundary was Cherokee land as established by the Treaty of Holston. (23)

30 July 1819, William Mallory, Sr purchased 126 3/4 acres on Helton's and Purtle's Creeks from William Watson. (24)

Tributaries of Helton's Creek and Purtle's Creek spring from a small common area along the eastern county line southwest of present day Alexandria. The two watersheds are separated by a ridge line of knobs with rocky outcrops. The streams are shallow and flow along rock-bottom courses. Helton Creek's only tributary in Wilson County is known today as Coon Branch which runs easterly into DeKalb County. Purtle's Creek runs to the south. The only area in Wilson County where the streams are close enough to fall within a 126 3/4 acre tract is near Talley Cemetery on Coon Branch Road.

William Mallory, Sr and his family were living in Lebanon, the Wilson County seat by 1820.
