Samuel Pack

In England this name is historic. One of the Packs was in the Long
Parliament. Another was one of Wellington's generals. Samuel wan-dered into
this region from Tidewater Virginia, and in 1763 was trapping with Swope and
Pitman on New River. A son was Samuel, Jr. (1760-1833) (Mary Farley), who
settled on that stream. The Packs were large slaveholders and owned much New
River bottom from the mouth of the Greenbrier up to and around the mouth of
Bluestone. C. of Samuel, Jr. -John (d. 1830c)  (Elizabeth Lively,
1812)-Matthew-Samuel (Sarah Wyatt, 1802)-Bartley (d. 1834) (Dicea
Harvey)-Loammi (1791-1858) (Jane Lively,  1811)-William-Anderson  (Rebecca
Peters) -Elizabeth (Jacob Dickenson)-Polly (Joseph Lively, 1812)-Jennie
(Jonah Morris). Anderson and Loammi owned a large body of land on Brush in
the vicin-ity of Cashmere. The latter was a zealous Methodist, and built and
did very much to maintain the Pack church. The wife of President Hayes was a
daughter of Jennie Pack Morris. While Hayes was in this region as a general
in the Fedral army he recognized Captain John A. Pack as a relative and gave
him the freedom of his camp at Raleigh C. H. After the death of Anderson, his
sons moved to Kansas and Oklahoma. Since then the name is locally extinct in
the line of Loammi.
