           Robert Vicars served Served 99 days (full term of the war) in Dunmore's War (Governor of Virginia), the 'battle of Point Pleasant', against Indian raiders in 1774, under Captain William Russell. Auditor's record show Robert was paid 7 pounds, 8 shillings, & sixpence for his service. The battle of Pt. Pleasant is the only battle fought during the war, on 10 Oct 1774.
(According to the statements of grandmother of A.M. VICARS), the Vicarses in the old country (England) were sailors, soldiers, and ship builders. Robert 'ROBIN' VICARS was not a Revolutionary soldier; he said he would not shoot at a red coat (the British Uniform) because he had worn one himself, but if a red skin (Indian) needed shooting, he was as good as ever pulled the trigger. At one time he took two horses loaded with beaver skins and other fur skins to Abindgon to be carried and hauled to Norfolk, there to be sold for supplies for the American soldiers. He sent one horse back home and was gone himself several months. It was thought he joined the army, but when he came back he said he went off with a hunting party, but when reminded that hunting was good near home, and that it was the wrong time of year to hunt, he said he had joined a party hunting Indians.

Militia Service:
Robert served in the forts on the lower Clinch River under William Russell. According to the Auditor's Accounts for Dunmore's War at the VA State Library in Richmond for Botetourt, Augusta and Fincastle Cos., Robert's service was as follows: Robert Vicars, 99 days; total paid: 7 L; 8 S; 6 d.

Dawna, Remember back when we first got in touch about Robert? You asked about Newgate prison and I said that today some of the cells are part of a Pub in London. I re-checked the name and location today and just for fun, this is what it says: The Viaduct Tavern, 126 Newgate near St. Paul's Cathedral, the cellars are former cells of the debtors prison. They were small, but crowded with up to 16 person in each. The ceilings had ventilation holes which extended under the street of Newgate and prisoners would stick their hands upwards in hopes of getting a handout of food from street passerby. The owner gives occasional group tours of the cellars. So, in the event you ever get to London, be a great tour! Kathy........

From Patricia Vicars Russell:' Letter to Joan, received 2/28/87, from Janie L. Vicars, wife of Sidney Vicars, P. O. Box 218, St. Paul, VA 24283'
. . . In Roanoke Island, N.C. they have a plaque with the names of the people who came over with Sir Walter Raleigh. There was a Vicars man, woman and boy. Robert Vicars was the first Vicars in this area. He first settled in Elk Garden which is near Lebanon, VA, in Russell Co. Then he relocated in the Grassy Creek section of Russell Co. which is near the Scott Co. line. There is a Vicars family cemetary on Grassy Creek. Robert is buried there. . . .

'Vicars Ancestory in Southwest Virginia, Direct Lineage from Robert Vicars to James M. Vicars':
Robert Vicars (1747-1821) occupation: farmer born in England on 8 Nov. 1747 prob. came to Norfolk, VA, from England in Sept. 1767; ship, Justitia appearance on the Clinch: Robert was listed as a tithable when the first head count was taken on the Clinch, 2 Oct. 1771. (this list of tithables is located in the Clerk's office of Botetourt Co., Fincastle, VA. He prob. arrived on the Clinch in the last half of 1770 or first half of 1771.2

     Robert Vicars was born on Nov 8, 1747 at London, England.2
     Robert Vicars married Lydia Jackson circa 1767 Marriages:

Lidia (circa 1752- ) Lidia & Robert were probably married circa 1768-1769. Marriage date is unknown. The 12 children named in Robert's will are probably Lidia's. Jacob, the youngest, was born 8 Apr. 1795. There is a land transaction date 23 Aug 1795 that list both Robert & wife Lidia (Russell Co Deed BK 1 pg 163)

Milly Robert married Milly before 1814, prob. in Russell Co., VA. Several of Robert's descendants named their girls, Milly. She prob. reared the younger children of Robert & Lidia. Milly survived Robert.2 Robert Vicars immigrated; THE JOURNEY
London to Copper Creek
Robert Vicars sailed on the ship Justitia from London to Norfolk, VA, in September 1767. He was 19 years old and would turn 20 within two months. There is no known record of his activities from his departure from the Justitia at Norfolk to his arrival in the Clinch Valley. The earliest public record of Robert, living on the Clinch, is his name among the tithables on the Clinch on Oct. 2, 1771. Robert probably left Tidewater Virginia in late summer or fall of 1770, or as late as the summer of 1771. Winter travel was usually an impossibility in Colonial times. Most immigrants waited til after harvest time, so food would be available for the trip, as well as seed for spring planting on the new land. There is no evidence that Robert was on the Clinch as early as 1769, the settlement date of Castle's Woods. There were few routes from the eastern shore to the western frontier. Robert probably took the same route as others seeking land, new opportunities, trade with the Indians, and pure adventure on Western Waters. Robert began the journey to the western frontier by traveling from Norfolk to Richmond, the easiest part of the trip. The road between these settlements was well traveled and had been used and improved for several decades. From Richmond, he turned southwest to Big Lick (Roanoke) on Roanoke River. Continuing southwest, Robert reached the New River, crossed at Ingles Ferry (Radford), and headed south to Fort Chiswell, just east of what is now Wytheville. This fort was the intersection of the Great Wagon Road, from Philadelphia to the Yadkin Valley in North Carolina, ad the Richmond Road, which Robert traveled. From here, he traveled the same route as the first settlers of Castle's Woods, the first station west of Mosscasin Gap. This trail continued southwest to Wolf Hills (Abingdon) and down Middle Fork of the Holston River to Sapling Grove (Bristol). Continuing down the Middle Fork of the Holston River, Robert arrived at Long Island (Kingsport). When he left the small fort on Long Island, Robert faced the roughest and most dangerous part of his journey. From the small fort, Robert traveled along Reedy Creek to the Holston River, and crossed Little Pine Mountain to Moccasin Gap. He continued up Little Moccasin Creek Valley to a low divide, near what is now Gate City, then over to Troublesome Creek. Moving almost due west from Troublesome, he crossed the Clinch River at what became Speer's Ferry. Walking up the west bank of the Clinch, he arrived at the Ford of Stock Creek (Clinchport). From here, Robert traveled up Big Stock Creek, near the Natural Tunnel, turned left around what is now Horton's Summit, and on to Little Flat Lick, near what is now Duffield. Continuing up Stock Creek Valley, he came to the crossroads (paths) of the Moccasin Gap Path and the Clinch River Path; this intersection was near what is now Rye Cove. The converging paths led up Powell Valley through Cumberland Gap to Kentucky. Heading up the Clinch River, he moved across the land that became the Blackmore place (Fort Blackmore) and up to Hunter's Ford (Osborne's Ford, now Dungannon). He traveled up the southern side of the ridge between Sinking Creek and the Clinch River by what is now Power's Hill to Castle's Woods. After arriving at this small frontier station, Robert settled on the head of Lewis Creek, a small branch flowing into the Clinch. On March 22, 1791, Robert and Lydia Jackson Vicars bought 200 acres on Copper Creek. The Vicars family moved to the new farm where Robert died on March 13, 1821.

Robert possibly was sent to America from England in 'Bondage',( source:Coldman, Peter Wilson, 'Bonded Passengers to America 1655-1775', Vol 2, New Orleans: Polyanthos, 1976, p 153) The Robert Vicars on this passenger list is the only Robert Vicars to enter the country via passengers list during the same time the Robert Vicars shows up on official record for Virginia.
The book - 'Bonded Passengers to America' by Peter Wilson Coldham, Vol. 3, pg. 153, lists:
'Vickars, Robert 5 June T Sept 1767, Justicia'. In the book - S was 'Sentenced to transportation at Sessions of Goal Delivery on or immediately before the date shown. T was transported, followed by date of embarcation and ships name. The destination will usually be found by reference to the appendix.
Ship's name: Justitia Captain: Colin Somervell Sailing date: Sept. 1767 T 53 Reference: 50/93 T1 Reference: 456

Could be Robert was banished via the ship, Justitia. Vicars Family Association lore says, the Vicars' family were ship builders, and fled (or bannished) to the new world after letting a ship get away and angering the King of England.2 He aquired Land Transactions:
22 Mar. 1791, Robert Vickars purchased 200 acres of land from Samuel and Hannah Vanhook. The land was on Copper Creek in the Grassy Creek section of Russell Co., VA. He paid one 131 pounds for this property.
27 March 1791, Robert & Lidia, his wife, sold 96 acres of land lying on the head of a small branch which flows into the Clinch River. (this is prob. half (192 acres) of the parcel of land Robert received by patent on 22 March 1783. 4 Jan. 1814, Robert Vicars & Milley Vicars, his wife, sold a parcel of land to Joseph G. Barker (for $12; for 12 acres on Molls Creek). Robert bought this tract from Samuel Evans, attorney for Francis Preston.
