The old legend of the Waugh brothers coming to America may have truth to it. Two of the brothers who came to Boston then by ship to Maine and finally settling in Londonderry, NH are appearing to be correct. Parson James McGregor was the leader of that group of settlers. John Waugh is our immigrant ancestor, the other two brothers who left Londonderry and settled further south is still in question. Family Tradition is that we are related to Bishop Waugh but nothing to document that connection has came to light. Details and documentation of their arrival, and settlement in Londonderry, NH is not well documented but more and more material is coming to light. If documentation is found I will post it. This page was originally intended to share information on the Whitley County Branch and has expanded to include links and information on the brothers of John Waugh. We are grateful to our Cousin Mark Rhoades and Margaret McLallen for their work in preserving our Waugh Family Records nearly a century ago.

GENERATION 1:

John Waugh born 1687  Scotland died Sept. 6, 1781.
Some records show from Londonderry NH, others show
born 28 Apr 1687 Dundee, Angus, Scotland which might make
him a son of James and Isobell (Alison) Waugh
     (no proof of his birth has been documented.)
Arrived at Boston 1718, Lived Maine, Londonderry New Hampshire
then to South Farms, Litchfield County, Connecticut by 1745. He
purchased 50 acres of land south of the Great Pond, now Bantam
Lake. He built this house lot and cleared the land for farming
with his four sons, Robert, Joseph, Thomas, and Alexander. They
kept a constant watch for hostile Indians as the nearest stockade
for protection was two and a half miles away in Morris. In 1748
he purchased 100 acres and in 1751 he purchased another 100 acres,
owning all the land from his house to Bantam Lake.

From: Layton W. Vick.

        From a letter written by ROBERT WAUGH of Sangerville, Maryland on 12/26/1922 sent to Mrs. John Husen. This was ultimately received by WILLIAM (BILL) JAMES WAUGH III whom is now deceased then given to me as part of the WAUGH research he was doing.
        Our WAUGH's came originally from Scotland but previous to that from Normandy or possibly Northern France.
        In 1688 Parson James McGregor took his flock from Scotland to Londondery, Ireland. Their were several WAUGH's in his flock. In 1718, the Parson and part of his flock set sail to America. With him were 3 WAUGH brothers. ROBERT, our progenitor, JOHN and a third one who's name has been lost.
        They landed on the coast of Maine and then made their way to Londonderry, New Hampshire. In 1740 JOHN WAUGH moved to Litchfield, Conn. where he died leaving 4 sons, ROBERT, JOSEPH, THOMAS and ALEXANDER. d

Died at his residence in Fayette County, Ohio, February 19, 1886, Zepheniah Bryan, aged 78 years, 1 month and 8 days. Zepheniah Bryan was born in Butler County, Pennsylvania, January 11, 1808. His parents came to Ohio when he was a child, and settled in Ross County. They were members of the Presbyterian Church. Mr. Bryan was united in marriage with Miss Matilda Waugh on December 7th, 1832. Miss Waugh being a relative of Bishop Waugh, of Methodist history, and being a Christian lady. Mr. Bryan, after marriage, united with the M. E. Church to which his wife belonged, and remained a faithful and useful member until death. To them were born seven children, five of whom are living. He first settled in Ross county, but came to this county about 35 years ago to the farm on which he died. Mr. Bryan was of a quiet and peaceful disposition; it might be said of him that he was afraid to do less he do wrong. He loved his home and family, and having the hearty cooperation of his companion, they succeeded above many in making home pleasant, and now their children rise up and call them blessed. Mr. Bryan lived in the day and among the honored and wise master builders, both of Church and State, and gave his influence in this direction. He knew some of the many hardships and disadvantages of early settlers were subject to. He is linked back to those "who lived in deeds, not in years; thoughts, not breath." Almost every link is now broken that connects with our illustrious fathers and mothers of the past, who were excellent models and worthy of our imitation. The last year of his life was of constant decline. A few days before his death he became very weary, and on the morning of the 18th, tired out at last and unable to go any farther, he lay down in life's dusty pathway, with his face towards his eternal home, saying "O bless the Lord; praise the Lord!" and without a struggle or groan passed away.

History of Champaign County, Illinois," by J. O. Cunningham, 1905

HARMON MASON CORRAY was born in Somers Township, Champaign County, November 8, 1862, and was educated in the public schools of that place. His father, Isaiah, was a native of Vermilion County, Ill., who came to Champaign County at an early age, and there married Angeline ROBERTS, by whom he had the following named children: Harmon M., Laura Belle (Mrs. Thomas JOHNSON), George M., and Carrie may (Mrs. Frank TOMPKINS), the latter of whom died in August 1892. Mr. Corray, Sr., and his wife still reside in Somers Township on the old William Somers place.

On March 10, 1886, at the age of twenty-three, Harmon M. Corray was married to Miss Elizabeth POWERS, a daughter of William and Mary Jane (WAUGH) POWERS [BOWERS], both of whom were natives of Montgomery County, Ind., where Mrs. Corray was born July 18, 1868. When she was six years old her parents came to Illinois, settling in Urbana Township, where her mother died in 1879. Her father is still living at his home in Montgomery County, Ind.

Mr. and Mrs. Corray are the parents of five children: May, aged seventeen; Austin, aged thirteen; George, aged eleven; William, aged eight; and Fred, aged six years. Mr. Corray owns 103 acres of land on which he lives, and also has 80 acres on Section 25 in Somers Township.

d. Abt. 1946, Blairstown, Missouri; 
m. KATIE R SHELTON, December 25, 1889, Blairstown, Missouri.

CHARLES EDWARD WARD, b. March 10, 1871.
Killed while digging a well. Married only l year and 11 days. 
He and his brother Lloyd had put in a blast, after which 
he resolved to go down and see what work it had done. 
He became sick and made the fact known. After his brother 
lowered the bucket he succeeded in reaching very near the 
top but fell back to the bottom. Friends gathered and drew 
him from the well almost dead. Dr. Keys from Blairstown 
was immediately summoned, but thought the injuries were internal.
