| Guernsey County In 1895 |
|
Guernsey County was created
1810 March 1, out of Belmont and Muskingum Counties. Portions of
Guernsey County were later incorporated into the counties of Monroe (1813 January 29), Morgan (1817 December 29), and
Noble (1851 March 11). Guernsey
County was named for the English Channel island of the same name, the origin of many of the early
settlers. The county lies along Zane's Trace and the old National Road (U.S. 40), over which
many pioneers traveled in the 18th century to open up America's interior. The upland is hilly and of various qualities, and the soil clay or
clayey loam. There is much excellent land in the bottom of Wills creek and its branches, which cover about one-third of the
county. In 1798 “Zane’s Trace” was cut through the county. When ZANE’S party arrived at Wills Creek
Crossing they found the government surveyors busy surveying the United States Military lands. They had a camp on its banks.
At this time the only dwelling between Wheeling and Lancaster was at Zanesville. The ZANES were from the South Branch of the
Potomac, near wills river, Maryland, and hence gave the name Wills creek to the stream. So far as known, Ebenezer ZANE’S
party consisted of himself, his brother Jonathan ZANE, John McINTIRE, Joseph WORLEY, Levi WILLIAMS, and an Indian guide named
Tomepomehala. Wills creek is a sluggish stream with clay bottom, and choked up as it was at that day with drift wood and rubbish,
was a difficult crossing; and the ZANES, in compliance with the requirements of the act to establish and maintain ferries
at the principal crossings, probably induced a man of the name of Graham to establish one there. It was the first stream west
of Wheeling on the “Trace” over which they placed a ferry. Who this first ferryman was or where from is not known.
He remained about two years, and was succeeded by George BEYMER, from Somerset, Pennsylvania, a brother-in-law of John McINTIRE,
of ZANE’S party.
