Using one of the combinations (VA-WV or VA-KY) for the state parameter will add the category for the first state, [[:Category: Virginia Appalachians]], automatically; if the second is also appropriate, add it manually.

The [[Project: Appalachia|Appalachia Project]] is organized into Regional Teams. Appalachia has five regions, which are defined by counties, rather than states, so a project member might belong to more than one Regional Team, even if focusing on only one state.

If the profile of the person you're looking for has been categorized as an [[:Category:Appalachians|Appalachian]] and you have an idea of where and when they might have lived, the links in the following [[#Table|table]] could help you find their profile. == Where == The [[Template: Appalachia Sticker|{{Appalachia Sticker}}]] can be added to profiles of Appalachians. The "base" sticker (just shown) does not add the profile to any category but using a state parameter does (see [[Template: Appalachia Sticker|this page]] for details about the sticker's parameters). Using the state parameter will automatically add the profile to the appropriate subcategory of [[:Category: Appalachians]]. Subcategories can also be added manually (for example, adding [[Category: West Virginia Appalachians]] to a profile will add it to [[:Category: West Virginia Appalachians]]). Since several of the subcategories have thousands of profiles, it is helpful to search by century. The following table has by-century links for all of the state-level Appalachians categories. As of 20 April 2023, the by-century links for each state can also be found on the state-level Appalachians categories (listed at [[:Category: Appalachians]]), along with details of "when". == When == The second column in the following table shows the date that the state was admitted to the union (according to [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_U.S._states_by_date_of_admission_to_the_Union Wikipedia]) or "17th Century" if the state had been a colony (regardless of when the colony was first settled). The WikiTree+ search looks for profiles in the category with a birth year in the datafield that fits the century, so there may be search results in a century prior to statehood. For example, someone born in 1793 (the 18th century) may have lived in West Virginia, which was admitted to the union in 1863 (the 19th century). In addition, some areas were recognized territories before being admitted as a state. The 16th century is not listed. Although the earliest colonists were born in the 1500s, the westward spread of settlers into the area known today as Appalachia was undertaken by later generations. == Table == :{|border="1"

[[Category: Projects Related to Appalachia]][[Category: Great Wagon Road]] = Overview = Simply put, the four parts of the Great Wagon Road are the [[#Great Philadelphia Wagon Road|Great Philadelphia Wagon Road]] -> [[#Valley Turnpike|Valley Turnpike]] -> [[#Carolina Road|Carolina Road]] -> [[#Georgia Road|Georgia Road]]. An article by R. Jackson Marshall, posted by NCpedia, describes the Great Wagon Road's path succinctly: : Sometimes called the "Great Philadelphia Wagon Road," it began in Philadelphia, crossed westward to Gettysburg, turned south to Hagerstown, Md., continued south to Winchester, Va., through the Shenandoah Valley to Roanoke, and on to the North Carolina border. There it entered present-day northeastern Stokes County and passed through Walnut Cove, Germanton, Winston-Salem, Salisbury, and Charlotte before continuing into South Carolina and Georgia.NCpedia: R.

'''The Great Wagon Road''' is described as "an improved trail through the Great Appalachian Valley".Wikipedia: [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Wagon_Road Great Wagon Road] (accessed 18 August 2023). {{Image|file=Great_Wagon_Road.jpg|align=r|label=1751 Map of the Great Wagon Road (1720-1763)|caption=1720-1763}} {{Image|file=US_Southern_Colonies_Southern_Migration.jpg|align=r|label=1751 Fry-Jefferson map of the Great Wagon Road|caption=1751}}This page was created to serve as a reference for the Great Wagon Road's "points and parts" (although for flow, "[[#Points|Points]]" are listed after "[[#Parts|Parts]]" are discussed). As of 18 August 2023, WikiTree had three space pages devoted to the Great Wagon Road, which go into greater detail than this page.WikiTree: [[Space: Great Wagon Road|Great Wagon Road]], created by [[Prickett-120|Patricia (Prickett) Hickin]] in October 2015.WikiTree: [[Space: The Great Wagon Road|The Great Wagon Road]], a [[Project:US Southern Colonies|project]] page managed by the project, created December 2015.WikiTree: [[Space: US Southern Colonies, Southern Migration |US Southern Colonies, Southern Migration]], a [[Project:US Southern Colonies|project]] page not managed by the project, created December 2015.
In 1751, the Great Wagon Road ran 455 miles, from Philadelphia to North Carolina's Yadkin River.NCpedia: David Walbert, "[https://www.ncpedia.org/anchor/mapping-great-wagon-road Mapping the Great Wagon Road]" (accessed 20 August 2023). The extension of the trail to Augusta, Georgia on the Savannah River put it at "a distance of more than 800 miles (1,300 km) from Philadelphia." See Wikipedia's article on the Great Wagon Road for details. See also the selection of maps of the Great Wagon Road [[#Maps|below]]. Many parts and offshoots of the Great Wagon Road are following earlier trails established by Native American Tribes. See the maps posted by "Virginia Places" on its page for "Paths, Trails, and Post Roads"Virginia Places: [http://www.virginiaplaces.org/transportation/paths.html Paths, Trails, and Post Roads] (accessed 18 August 2023). and Wikipedia's article about the "Great Indian Warpath". == Parts == Generally, the '''Great Philadelphia Wagon Road''' is synonymous with the Great Wagon Road, or just the Great Road, running from Philadelphia to Georgia, but "Philadelphia" is often dropped at the Virginia border. Although the entire route, from Philadelphia to Augusta, includes "Wagon", Wikipedia's article notes the misnomer: "Despite its current name, the southern part of this road was by no means passable by wagons until later Colonial times. The 1751 Fry-Jefferson map on this page notes the term 'Waggon' only north of Winchester [Virginia]...." The '''Valley Turnpike''' - also called the Valley Pike or Valley Road - runs from Winchester to Roanoke through Virginia's [[Space:Shenandoah_Valley_One_Place_Study|Shenandoah Valley]]. "Winchester was considered the gateway to the Shenandoah Valley, leading to the Carolina Piedmont, Tennessee, and Kentucky." The '''Carolina Road''' goes south from Roanoke, crosses the Blue Ridge Mountains at Maggoty Gap in Franklin County,Historic Marker for the [https://www.wikitree.com/photo/jpg/US_Southern_Colonies_Southern_Migration-2 Carolina Road] posted in Franklin County [VA] in 1987 in recognition of the county's bicentennial (1786-1986). and passes through Martinsville in Henry County, Virginia before reaching the North Carolina border at present-day northeastern Stokes County, North Carolina. After the Great Wagon Road crosses the Yadkin River at Shallow Ford, North Carolina, the '''Georgia Road''' turns south from Sherrill Path to Charlotte, North Carolina on its way to the southern end of the Great Wagon Road: Augusta, Georgia on the Savannah River. "The river was navigable from here to Savannah, Georgia." : ''Salisbury'' - A 1780 map of Rowan County, North Carolina ([https://piedmonttrailsblog.files.wordpress.com/2018/01/rowan-co-1780-map-1.jpg?w=1640 here]) shows "Shallowford" as 3.5 miles north of its border, with the Great Wagon Road running south through Mocksville and Salisbury, continuing on into Mecklenburg County, North Carolina.[https://piedmonttrailsblog.files.wordpress.com/2018/01/rowan-co-1780-map-1.jpg?w=1640 Rowan County 1780 Map] (accessed 22 August 2023). This map illustrates Carol's 6 January 2019 article, "[https://piedmonttrails.com/2019/01/06/the-great-wagon-road-enters-into-south-carolina/ The Great Wagon Road Enters Into South Carolina]" (part one), posted on her blog, ''Piedmont Trails: Genealogy and History in North Carolina and Beyond'', accessed 22 August 2023. "Salisbury became a major east-west and north-south crossroad. (The Great Trading Path came through here.)... Eventually, by 1775, the Great Wagon Road continued south from here to Charlotte, North Carolina, and Augusta, Georgia." : ''South Carolina'' - After passing through Charlotte, in Mecklenburg County, the Great Wagon Road, or Georgia Road, forked through South Carolina, although details differ. According to Wikipedia's tables for The Great Wagon Road (as of 22 August 2023): "The road on the left led to Augusta, Georgia, via Lancaster and Camden, South Carolina.... The road on the right led to Augusta, Georgia, via Union and Columbia, South Carolina". A map posted by ''Piedmont Trails'' shows the road on the left running through Rock Hill, Chester, and Newberry, which agrees with the 1720-1763 map of the Great Wagon Road, and the road on the right runs through Camden. The "[[#Points|Points]]" section (below) lists cities along those parts. The Summary tables in Wikipedia's article on the Great Wagon Road ([https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Wagon_Road#Summary here]) are helpful in breaking down the various parts and offshoots, but it can still get confusing, with different terms used by different states and by different sources. : "In our state [North Carolina] it is known as the Great Philadelphia Wagon Road, the Great Wagon Road, or simply the Wagon Road. In Virginia, it is called the Carolina Road, because it led to Carolina."NCpedia: Michael O. Hartley and Martha B.

Tar Heel Junior Historian Association, NC Museum of History Edited, 2010. : One map of the road through Virginia names the parts "The Great Road" and "Crossroads", with Crossroads splitting into three branches after Roanoke - "Carolina Road" (into North Carolina), "Frontier Trail" (to Bristol, Virginia, the start of the "Daniel Boone Wilderness Trail"), and "Fincastle Turnpike" (connecting with the Wilderness Trail west of Bristol).[http://www.wildernessroad-virginia.com/ Map Through Virginia], ''Wilderness Road - Virginia'' (accessed 19 August 2023). Note: Although titled "Wilderness Road" the site covers the Great Wagon Road through Virginia and showing the Wilderness Road offshoot as the "Daniel Boone Wilderness Trail". (See "Through Virginia" under [[#Maps|Maps]], below.) The major offshoots of the Great Wagon Road are the Monocacy Road and the Wilderness Road: : The '''Monocacy Road''' turns south at York, Pennsylvania, runs through Frederick, Maryland, and enters Virginia to the east of the Great Wagon Road. It rejoins the Great Wagon Road at Winchester. An offshoot of the Monocacy Road went from Frederick, Maryland to Clarksville, Virginia and into North Carolina before turning west. It was (confusingly) also called the "Carolina Road" or occasionally the "High Road" through Virginia. : The '''Wilderness Road''' runs west along the Virginia/North Carolina border from Sapling Grove (now Bristol), Virginia through the Cumberland Gap on to the Ohio River in Kentucky.See also WikiTree's [[:Category: Wilderness Road]] & Wikipedia's [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wilderness_Road Wilderness Road]. * '''Cumberland Gap''': "The Appalachian Mountains form a natural barrier to east–west travel. From New York to Georgia there [were] only three natural interior breaks allowing animal powered travel without great engineering works", one of which was the Cumberland Gap.Wikipedia: [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wilderness_Road Wilderness Road] (accessed 18 August 2023). Dr. Thomas Walker discovered this gap in 1750, "at what is now the junction of the State boundaries of Kentucky, Tennessee and Virginia."FamilySearch, "American Roads and Trails": [https://www.familysearch.org/en/wiki/British_Colonial_American_Roads_and_Trails,_Braddocks_Road,_Forbes_Road,_Great_Wagon_Road,_Wilderness_Road_-_International_Institute#Great_Wagon_Road Great Wagon Road] (accessed 18 August 2023). In 1796, "having seen as many as 200,000 travelers, [Cumberland] Gap was then widened to allow Conestoga Wagons through to lands west."Rickie Longfellow, "[https://www.fhwa.dot.gov/infrastructure/back0204.cfm The Cumberland Gap]", posted by the U.S. Department of Transportation's Federal Highway Administration (accessed 22 August 2023). == Points == Points along the Great Wagon Road listed on the 1720-1763 map are included among the following points.

At least two crossings are known for the Monocacy Road: the Catoctin Creek ford, which was bypassed in favor of Harper's Ferry in 1761. An offshoot of the Monocacy Road crossed at Noland's Ferry.C&O Canal Trust: [https://www.canaltrust.org/pyv/nolands-ferry/ Nolands Ferry] (accessed 18 August 2023). The more western path taken by the Great Wagon Road included a "Nichol's Gap" route and a "Black's Gap" route. Several ferries are mentioned in association with those routes: ** Williams Ferry, at Berkeley County: "... a settler named John Williams operated a... Potomac River ferry (1731) at Falling Waters near the mouth of Opequon Creek, 5 miles (8 km) downstream from here [Williamsport].[50] (The frequently mentioned "Opequon Settlement" area, in contrast, extended as far south as the headwaters of the creek, at Bartonsville, about 6 miles (10 km) south of Winchester, Virginia.)[51]" - see the Wikipedia article for the footnoted information. The 1747 Jefferson-Brooke map shows two points on the Potomac, at "Opeekon cr.", labeled Williams (probably Williamsport) and Ferry. ** Samuel Taylor's ferry originally operated here [Berkeley County] (1734) and later Thomas Swearingen's ferry (1755). "Packhorse Ford" is nearby. A 1736 Benjamin Winslow map and the 1751 Fry-Jefferson map show the ferry crossing at the Spurgent property. The 1747 Jefferson-Brooke map shows the Wagon Road crossing the Potomac between Shepherd and Spurgeant (with Spurgeant written on both sides). ** Watkin's Ferry, at Williamsport: "Evan Watkins' ferry was established by law in 1744.... After 1795, Watkins Ferry became Peter Light's ferry; in 1854 it became Robert Lemen's ferry...." ** David Shepherd & Hugh Stephenson "had gone into partnership, before the Revolution,... in establishing a rival ferry at Shepherdstown, where Swearingen's Ferry had prior possession"Jefferson County, WV Shepherdstown in the Revolution: [https://genealogytrails.com/wva/jefferson/revwar_bios.html Appendix A], an "Alphabetical List Of Officers And Privates Connected With Shepherdstown, Or Recruited In Its Neighborhood, During The Revolution".

The quoted paragraph, from pages 2-3 of the pdf, included footnote 3: * Carl Bridenbaugh, ''Myths and Realities: Societies of the Colonial South'' (Baton Rouge: Louisiana State University Press : 1952)", 129. covers more (and different) river crossings in the following paragraph: :: "One of the most prominent features on the 1755 edition of the [Fry-Jefferson] map is ’'The Great Wagon Road from the Yadkin River through Virginia to Philadelphia distant 435 miles." From its northern terminus at the Schuylkill River Ferry in Philadelphia, the road originally took a rolling path west to Lancaster, proceeded to Harrisburg (Harris' Ferry) on the Susquehanna River, then continued down to Williamsport (William's Ferry) on the Potomac River, at the entrance to the Valley of Virginia. Going up (that is, to the south west) the Valley by way of Winchester, Strasburg, Harrisonburg, Staunton, and Lexington, it crossed the James River at Buchanan (Looney's Ferry), and changing its course from southwest to south, it came to Roanoke (Big Lick), where it again swerved, this time to the east and the Staunton River Gap, where it passed through the Blue Ridge Mountains. Once past this barrier, the Road turned south, crossing the Blackwater, Pigg, and Irvine Rivers in Southside Virginia, the Dan River in North Carolina, and ended at "Unitas" or Wachovia, the Moravian community on Gargals Creek, a branch of the great Yadkin River. = Maps = : By date: * 1747: [https://www.wikitree.com/photo.php/7/77/Brooke-1089.jpg Jefferson-Brooke Map] - "Map of the northern neck in Virginia (by Peter Jefferson, Robert Brooke, Benjamin Winslow, Thomas Lewis, 1747)" - ''[https://www.wikitree.com/photo/jpg/Brooke-1089 WikiTree image page]''I thought that [https://www.wikitree.com/photo.php/7/77/Brooke-1089.jpg this map] might be the one referred to as the "1736 Benjamin Winslow map", as it was based on "an Actual Survey" begun in 1736, and Benjamin Winslow was one of the surveyors.
