• Name: VACHUB
• Owned property: 15 May 1754, Augusta, Virginia, British Colonial America; 378 acres in Calfpasture, head of Meeting Branch
• Owned property: 1761, Virginia, British Colonial America; 276 acres, head of Grassy Lick Run, Calfpasture, purchased from John Ward
• Will: 6 Feb 1787, Rockbridge, Virginia

Notes:

Joseph Walkup (Vachub) 1719-1787 purchased 378 acres on the Calfpasture River for five shillings, the equivelancy to about 83 cents at today's money. Who would not wish to purchase this fertile valley land, now, at such a price? Joseph lived most of his life in Augusta County. But, when his will was written, he lived in Rockbridge, due to boundary changes.

During Joseph's life, on the Calfpasture, important historical events occurred. He lived through the French and Indian Wars, in which much of the western frontier was violently assaulted. He must have endured having neighbors and, perhaps family, killed and carried away by marauding Indians. When Joseph was about 49, the Ottawa Chief, Pontiac, led a spring uprising against the frontier in which hundreds of colonists along the western frontier were killed. Joseph's valley was no exception to these incursions. In 1765 Joseph turned in a report for provisions and impressed horses for the use of the militia. This indicates that he aided those frontiersmen who protectyed the borders of western Virginia from Indian invasions. A niece to Joseph's sister, Margaret (Walkup) Gay, declared that there was a stockade on the Calfpasture during the French and Indian War. Such a fortification would have made for close ineraction among all Calfpasture residents.

Before Joseph and his family had time to recuperate from war, disruption began anew. According to one source, Walkups were born soldiers and their names were found on the Virginia rolls in all her struggles. All the Walkups participated in the American Revolution. A 1783 record credits to Joseph; 22 horses hire, 5 bushels oats, 5 buschels corn, all as aid to the war. Joseph's son, John, fought with Francis Marion who took from the Bristish much of South Carolina. Joseph's brother, James Alexander became a Captain.

Joseph's will was written in 1784. Money that he left was both actual and due debts, equaling around 700 dollars. He left personal items to his daughters, granddaughters and grandsons. He left his large Bible to his daughter Rebecka. Joseph left 300 acres of land to his son, Robert, and 48 acres with the dwelling house, meadow and orchard to grandson, Nathaniel Walkup 1777-1850. Relatives, James Steavenson and Joh Gay were appointed Executors. Witesses included Brasten Castham, Samuel Corrick and Matthew Vachub. It is not what Joseph left that is so important, but the simple fact that he left it in written form. His will helps to identify relationships between early Rockbridge families as well as to identify those family members that relocated to other parts.

Following the death of their father, Robert (1748-1824) and Christopher (1744-1818) moved to the Greenbrier Valley. It is said they visited that area before the Revolution. Apparently, they liked what they found. Robert sold his land, or a portion of it, to John Sterrit, according to Rockbridge records. Robert moved his family to Greenbrier County, West Virginia and lived, eventually, in the Meadow Bluff area. His son Nathaniel married Margaret Moore and raised his family in Greenbrier and Nicholas Counties in West Virginia.
