Note for:   Ichabod Camp,   15 Feb 1726 - 20 Apr 1786         Index

Individual Note:
     he following is from "Camp, Jones, and Related Families" by Nell Jones Carter, 1977, Page 4: "It has also been established that the Rev. Ichabod Camp was the son of John Camp who was the son of Edward Camp (2nd) of Milford, Conn." After Ichabod's death in 1786 at Kaskaskia, his wife and daughters moved to St Louis. There his granddaughter, Marguerite Susanne deReilhe, married Alexander McNair, who became the first Governor of Missouri. Tuckahoes and Cohees: The Settlers and Cultures of Amherst and Nelson Counties 1607-1807, Catherine Hawes Coleman Seaman, Sweet Briar College Printing Press, Sweet Briar, Virginia 1992. About two pages on Icabod Camp. The references by the author used are: Walker, Frances M. 1964: The Early Episcopal Church in the Amherst-Nelson Area Lynchburg, J. P. Bell Co. Inc. Amherst Deed Book E:218 Brown, Alexander, The Cabells and their Kin; 1895, republished 1978 Harrisonburg, Virginia, C. J. Carrier Company. P. 222 (Tuckahoes & Cohees) In 1785, Lexington Parish the first post-Revolutionary parish, was established, and the vestry contracted for the sale or removal of Maple Run Church In order to build St. Mark?s Church. According to Howell (1973), the congregation that had worshipped In Maple Run moved Its ?church house? to Clifford. Whether this means the old Maple Run building Itself was moved, or that the congregation moved into another building at Clifford Is not clear. Relying on the records of the great. great. great-granddaughter of the first rector of Amherst Parish, Ichabod Camp. Howell writes that St. Mark?s was standing P.223. (Tuckahoes & Cohees) before 1776 and was possibly a wooden structure. The present brick church was constructed by 1817. All denominations apparenfly used the building, a common practice at the time, but it was eventually deeded to the Episcopal Church in 1844. Back to 1761. the Anglican congregations of the newly formed Amherst County elected twelve vestrymen who voted to purchase 254 acres for a Glebe. On 14 August, 1762, they bought fifty acres from Carter Braxton and on 6 September the same year, 204 acres from Aaron Higginbotham. According to Walker, (ibid: 50) the Glebe was probably not erected until 1765, the Anglicans first building a log house for the clergyman, Mr. Camp, and his family until construction was completed. The property was later sold to Ambrose Rucker who then sold the house and 254 acres to Gabriel Penn on March 6, 1780 (Amherst Deed Book E:218). Camp left the area in 1778. selling his furniture to Colonel Cabell (Brown, 1895:116), and going to the west with the army of George Rogers Clark (Percy, 1961:34). Unfortunately, Mr. Camp took the parish records with him when he left. However, the records may be still extant, since Mrs. Howell, above, was able to get Information from Camp?s great, great, great-granddaughter. Walker writes (ibid: 84), that Camp served as a missionary to the Indians until the end of the Revolution. He then went to the Mississippi River where, Percy writes, he was killed in 1789. (Percy. 1961:34). His family continued in the western area, his granddaughter, Susanna Marguerite de Reihe, marrying Alexander McNair, the first govenor of Missouri (Brown,1895:87).
       A Brief History of the Reverend Ichabod Camp, MD DD 1726-1786
       Ichabod Camp, son of John and Phoebe (Canfield) Camp of Milford and
       Durham, Conn, was born in Durham Conn. 15 Feb 1726 and bapt. five days later. John Camp, born either 15 Feb or 1 Mar 1686 at Milford, was the son of Edward and Mehitable (Smith) Camp. Sgt. Edward Camp is first mentioned in New Haven Conn. records in 1643. The parentage of Edward II had not been determined yet however he is known to have been born in 1618 for he swore in a deposition to that age at New Haven in 1652. Ichabod was the eighth of a family of ten children of John and Phoebe as follows: John III, Edward, Phoebe, Israel who died young, Abraham Rebecca, Israel, Ichabod, Job and Mary. Three of Ichabod's brothers, Israel, Job and Abraham were Captains in the Rev. war. Ichabod's brother John III was a Lieutenant in the French and Indian War of 1754-55 and took part in the Crown Point Campaigh.
       Ichabod grew up and attended school in Durham. He probably came under the influence and listened to many sermons by the Rev. Chauncey of Durham.
       Ichabod entered Yale College in Sept. 1739 and commenced his B.A. 14 Sept
       1743. He commenced his masters degree 1746. His diary states "Licensed to preach prayers 1745-46". He was licensed to preach by the New Haven Association on 27 May 1746 and was preaching in Sharon Conn., in the next year. By the last of May 1748 he had abandoned the Congregational Ministry and was acting as lay minister to the churchmen in Middleton and Wallingford. His Diary States "Appointed to read prayers at Middleton May 29, 1748." "Appointed to read prayers at Wallingford Sept. 1748." He was given encouragement by the Society for Propagation of the Gospel to cross the ocean, which he did late in the year 1751. Ichabod first , however had won the hand and heart of Content ward, born 11 Oct, 1727, daughter of Capt. Macock Ward and Hannah (Tyler) Ward of Meriden, Ct. , from another young man by the name of Andrews or Asban. Ichabod and Content were married 26 Nov 1749. Their first child, a daughter sarah, was born 30 Sept. 1750 at Middleton, Ct. and married Capt. Sanford Thompson in 1762.
       Having crossed the Atlantic in late 1751, Ichabod was on March 22 1752, the Sunday before Easter, Ordained to the office of Deacon, and three days later to that of Priest on London by Dr John Thomas, Bishop of Lincoln. On March 26 he was licensed to execute his office in America by Dr. Sherlock, Bishop of London, and immediately returned to his country with a commission from the Propegation Society as Missionary to Middleton, Wallingford, and Cheshire. His diary states "Begun to execute said office at church Wallingford July 18, 1752--- Begun to execute said office at Christ Church Middleton July 18, 1752--At North Haven Aug. 2 1752." Prior to that his son Samuel had been born and 14 May 1752. Samuel's record says that he was born in Durham, Ct. In August he established his family in his own house at Middleton. His wife, Content, died there on 29 Dec. 1754, Ichabod continued to minister the gospel at Middleton, Wallingford and Cheshire. On 6 June 1757, he was married by the Rev. Henry Caner to Miss Ann Oliver or Olivier
       of Boston, Mass. She was probably the daughter of Antoine and Marie Olivier (French Huegonote) and was born at Annapolis, Nova Scotia 31 Dec 1727. John, the first son of Ann and Ichabod was born 27 Sept 1759 and died 17 Oct 1759. Ichabod continued to preach at Middleton, Wallingford and Cheshire until June of 1760 when he asked for an assignment at Wilmington, N.C. and was invited by Gov. Dodds of that state to preach there. He moved with his family from Middleton on 16 June 1760 and arrived at Wilmington probably on 9 Jly 1760. He ministered the gospel at Wilmington until 1761, and one of his sermons was so well regarded that it was published and is a matter of record in Wilmington or North Carolina history. His son George ws born there 29 March 1761. On 6 May 1761 Ichabod moved with his family and arrived at Cornwall Parish, Lunenburgh, Va., on 5 June 1761. He probably stayed there and preached until 1762 for his journal reads " Moved with my jamily ye 22 day of March 1762. Arrived at Amjherst County & Parish, Virginia 15th November 1762." Ichabod preached in Amherst County and Parish until 1778. He was minister of eight churches probably for he assumed the churches ministered by the Rev. Rose. His residence was the "Globe House" near Glasgow, Va. He was a good friend of Gen. Gabriel Penn who was the commanding officer of a regiment of Virginia troops in which Samuel, his son, served in the Rev. War. Ichabod practiced medicine in addition to his gospel, and apparently accumulated a tidy fortune of the eimes in money and negro slaves during his 18 years at Amherst Parish. The following children were born at the Globe House: Mary Ann, 15 Nov 1762; Stella, 18 Jan 1764; Catherine, 21 Apr 1765; Charlotte, 17 Apr 1767; Lovisa or Louise, 3 Sept 1768; Caroline, 20 Apr 1770. Caroline died there 28 Jan 1778. His son Samuel was married in Amherst (not by his father as they differed on religion) on Nov 12 1776 to Mary Banks, daughter of Gerard and Ann (Stanton) Banks of Amherst County Va. After 16 years in Amherst Parish he was attracted by the proposals for establishing an English Colony in the neighborhood of Natchez, Miss. His journal states, "Moved with my family from Amherst ye 1st of June 1778, and after going down the Mississippi returned up the river & settled at ye Illinoy ye 1st of May 1779." Prior to his departure from Amherst he had sent some of his slaves to the head of the Monongahola river to build rafts & prepare for the trip to Natchez. He took with him his wife, one son seventeen years old, and five daughters, aged from 15 to 8 yrs, besides a number of negro slaves. The family proceeded down the Monongahola to Fort Pitt, and thence down the Ohio and Mississipps for part of the way in company with Colonel George Rogers Clark's expedition against the British at Kaskaskia, the former capital of the French during their occupation of the Illinois Territory. On arriving at Natches they found the situation unhealthy and the land company not a prosperous as had been represented. The eldest daughter, Mary Ann, sickened and died there of 23 Feb 1779, and after that Rev. Camp determained to leave the settlement and assend the river to Kaskaskia, in the southern part of the present state of Illinois. On account of danger from the Indians, the family was obliged to wait for a military convoy from New Orleans, but they reached the village of Kaskaskia, as was previously stated in the Rev. 's diary aroynd 1 May 1779, and there made a pleasant home for themselves. Camp was revered by the Indians even though in one of his letters to the Indian Chief, Ponamatahn (sp.?), he threatens to complain to the "Great Chief at Philadelphia
