A John TOOLE signed bond for Archibald TOOLE and Barbara FUDGE 11 Nov 1791 in Augusta Co., VA."  

A John Tool married Mrs. Sarah Moran 23 Dec 1788 in Albemarle co, VA, next door to Augusta county.  A brother?, signed for Archibald's marriage?  He lived in Albemarle 1785-8 white souls, 1 dwelling, 3 other buildings

   Mary Tool m. Joseph Wingfield 28 Aug 1789
  Sarah Tool m. Richard Herndon 21 Dec 1795(Sarah b. 1775, d.1 Oct 1851 Warren, TN)

Also from Mickey: "John TOOL/TOOLE of King George County who died intestate ca. 1752. My Archibald TOOL/TOOLE was married in 1791 Augusta CO., VA to Barbara FUDGE. Don't know how old he was. If age 20-30 he could have been born in 1760-1770. This John could be a brother or Uncle. There are an awful lot of John TOOL/TOOLE's roaming around in Virginia in this time period and it is hard to keep them separated. Our family history written in the early 1900's alleges that three brothers came to America; Archibald, John, William or Patrick. One drowned soon after landing and the other was lost track of. This information was also furnished by the Register of Records in Augusta County who was a Mr. J. P. Davenport. I believe that I have a reference somewhere that a TOOL/TOOLE married a DAVENPORT so I will include that name in my Surname List and see if we come up with something."

Pioneer Adam Tool, who passed from earthly scenes in the seventies, was born in Augusta County, Virginia, July 31, 1794. His father was a teamster and young Tool had to do his share at helping cultivate the soil in order that the large family might subsist. He commenced farming on his own account, with one horse, when but sixteen years old. He was drafted into the military service at the age of nineteen years. He married Susan H. Stinson in 1817 and settled down for the struggle of what proved an eventful but prosperous career. In 1836 they moved to Coles County, Illinois, where land was claimed, but on account of the fever and ague there, he sold and went to Jefferson County, Iowa territory, where he was reduced in property by reason of sickness, having lost his eldest daughter, and other misfortunes overtook him.

Baptist Church in Clark Co. Afterwards, he transferred his membership to the
Mt. Salem church where he remained an honored member until his death. His wife
preceeded him to the spirit world about seven years ago. He leaves one
brother, nine children, a great many relatives and friends to whom his death
will be a sad loss. In their sorrow we commend them to the loving and heavenly
Father, who doeth all things well.

O'GUNNING (Ireland)

From Irish Pedigrees; or the Origin and Stem of the Irish Nation by John O'Hart

Arms: Gu. on a fesse erm. betw. three doves ar. ducally crowned or, as many crosses pattée of the first.

THE O'Conaing, or, as the name is now anglicised O'Gunning and Gunning, derive their name and descent from Conaing, son of Cineadh, son of Donchuan, brother of Brian Boroimhe, Monarch of Ireland, who is No. 105 on the "O'Brien, Kings of Thomond" pedigree; and were Chiefs of Aos-Greine, a territory in the county Limerick which has been variously located; and also of Crioch Saingil, or Singland, otherwise St. Patrick's, a parish in the county of Limerick, where formerly stood the principal residence of the lords of Aos-Greine, as we read:

   "Aos-Greine of the smooth fair plains,
   O'Conaing of Crich Saingil governs."

We are of opinion that Aos-Greine forms part of the present baronies of Clanwilliam and Coonagh, on the borders of which is a parish called "Greane," and the town of Pallas-greane, the scene of a tremendous battle in the middle of the 10th century. Palais-Aos-Greine, which may have been the ancient name of this territory, and now shortened to "Pallas-greane," would signify the "Palace of the worshippers of the Sun," or "the place of residence of the sun-worshippers;" and that a grianan--a palace or summer residence--existed here, the following lines from O'Heerin go to prove:

   "He [O'Conaing] held the fair Grian,
   Of the illustrious house of Eoghan."

According to O'Brien, Aos-Greine was situated in the barony of Small County.

In A.D. 1032. Edras O'Conaing, son of Eoghan, son of Conaing, lord of Aos-Greine, and "heir of Munster," died.
A.D. 1125. Kennedy O'Conaing, erenach of Cill Dulua, or Killaloe, died.
A.D. 1137. Donal O'Conaing, Archbishop of Leath Mogha, i.e. Leinster and Munster, died.
A.D. 1195. Donal O'Conaing, bishop of Killaloe, died.
A.D. 1261. Brian Roe O'Brien, lord of Thomond, ancestor of the O'Briens of Ara, in Tipperary, demolished Caislean-Ui-Chonaing, i.e. the castle of O'Conaing, now Castle-Connell, in the county of Limerick, and put the garrison to the sword.
A.D. 1490. Mathamhna (Mahon) O'Conaing, vicar of the abbey of Lethrachta, or Latteragh, in Upper Ormond, died.

Several respectable members of this family are to be met with in the counties of Limerick, Clare, Tipperary, and Donegal, at the present day.

From Atlas of Shelby County:
 Hiram  A.  Cotton

         The subject of this sketch is another of those sturdy pioneers to whom Shelby Co. owes so much.  He was born in Hamilton Co., Ohio, Dec. 27, 1804, being the son of William Cotton, and the youngest of the family.  His educational advantages were slight, and what education he has has been obtained chiefly from observation.  At the age of eighteen, he came to Shelby Co. with his parents, settling in Union Township in 1822.  He remained with his father until 1826, hard at work clearing land and doing whatever was a duty in those early days.  Among other things, he helped build the Michigan road, working on it for 33-1/2 cents per day.  On the 6th of August, 1826, he was married to Jane Gunning, daughter of David Gunning, in Union Township, and immediately after borrowed money enough to enter 40 acres of land, on which he settled and built him a log cabin, where he and his wife spent many happy days.  Though the conveniences of those days were limited, and it was a work of unceasing labor to clear a farm from the wilderness, yet their mutual love made the labor light, and their united efforts soon paid for their land, and enabled them to add to their store until, as time rolled by, they were soon, so to speak, independent.  They remained at home almost entirely, and found together that contentment which a happy union always bring.  In his business relations, Mr. Cotton was always successful, and his property accumulated quite rapidly, until he was classed among those who had sufficient for all this world's wants.  His greatest loss in life he met with when, after nearly fifty-two years of complete companionship, he lost his good wife, her death taking place on the 10th day of April, 1878.  She was an excellent woman, and during their unusually long married life, she and her husband had never had a quarrel.  Mr. Cotton has never had time among his home and farm cares to engage in any political controversies, though he has always been a decided Democrat of the old school, and cast his first vote for Jackson, which he has followed up by voting for every Democratic candidate for President since.  His character is irreproachable, and his property has been accumulated by the hardest kind of work.  No man can say he wronged them out of a penny.  At present, Mr. Cotton is living on his home place, which consists of over one hundred acres.  His declining years are abundantly supplied for, and he is attentively cared for by his nephew, Thos. A. Cotton, and "his" sons, who live near by.
