[Captain John Bunch]
Mr. Bunch's name was probably SAMUEL BUNCH, SR.
Samuel left a will dated 1782, proved 9 Jan 1783. He was named as one of the brothers of John in his will. Samuel and his family were received
in membership by the Cedar Creek Monthly Meting Quakers, Hanover Co., VA. He was known as Samuel the Quaker and some of his children were disowned by the faith including Charles, Samuel, George, Mary, Rebecca, James and Molley. On 11 Jan 1773 he deeded Pouncy Bunch 60 acres. In 1777 he paid two tithes therefore ha had only one son at home. His will was unusual in that he left land to two of his daughters. From the Book "Early Quaker Families In Louisa, the will is referenced. It reads:
This will was dated 30 Jan 1782 and was proved at a court held at Louisa on 9 Jan 1783. He named his wife, Mary Bunch, and gave her his estate for life. He devised to his son, Samuel Bunch, 125 acres of land with the plantation whereon Benjiman Phares formerly lived. And to his son, Charles Bunch, he gave 125 acres with the plantation I now live on. To his daughter, Judith, he gave 100 acres of land in North Garden,
Albemarle County. He mentions his sons James and John, and daughters Rebecca and Ann. He named his executors his wife, Mary, son Samuel and Samuel Richardson. Witnesses were Samuel Richardson, William Payne and Richard Morris.[John Bunch 11.ged]

[John Bunch 12.ged]
Bowman and Johnson Killed, James Bunch Wounded in Powell's Valley By
Emory L. Hamilton
-----------------------------------------------------------------
From the unpublished manuscript, Indian Atrocities Along
the Clinch, Powell and Holston Rivers, pages 42-45. James Kincaid, son
of John Kincaid, who lived across Clinch River from St. Paul, VA, and
who, in the year 1779, moved with his father to Kentucky and later
settled in Missouri, tells of this incident in his Revolutionary War
pension statement filed in Lafayette Co., MO, in 1833. I entered the
service of the United States under the command of Captain John Dunkin
(1). At this time his father lived in a settlement called Castle's Woods
on Clinch River, about 25 miles north of Abingdon, Virginia, a frontier
fort. Powell Valleyhad been settled, but the settlers had been run off
by the Indians. A good many of them could not bring their plunder with
them, but hid it. John Dunkin was ordered out with a company of militia
in order to guard the people who had left their property behind them, to
collect it together and bring it into the settlements. He (Kincaid) was
one of Dunkin's company. At this time Captain Joseph Martin was stationed
at the Rye Cove Fort on Clinch River in order to guard the frontiers of
Virginia. He (Martin) kept two spys, who were brothers, to-wit: John and
James Bunch. When we got into the valley we met with these spys. They
then returned with us down to what was called Martin's Stationin said
valley, but we found no one there - they had all fled. One of the
settlers that was with us, who had fled from the valley by the name of
Davis (called Captain Davis). Before the people fled he lived at Owen's
Station, (2) ten miles below Martin's. We took up at Martin's Station.
Sometime after, Davis petitioned Dunkin for a few men to go down to
Owen's Station with him tocollect his plunder. Five men was granted him,
one of whom was James Bunch. They went to the Station and collected the
plunder accordingly, as I understood, and returning back to the camp the
Indians waylaid the path and fired upon them, and wounded Bunch, and
killed a man by the name of (Robert) Bowman atthe place, and wounded
another by the name of Johnson, as Bunch related, forhe returned with
him (Johnson) a piece, but he (Johnson) never got in. Threeof the party
got in that night, two of whom was Bunch and Davis. The next day Dunkin
went down with all his force, save a few left to guard the wounded.This
affiant was one that went down. We went to the place and there found
Bowman dead. Davis took us to a tree where he said an Indian stood whom
he shot at. We went to the place and found a great deal of blood. We then
took histrail and followed them, but not a great ways, as it appeared
they had scattered. We returned back and buried the dead, thence to camp
(at Martin's Station). This circumstance broke up the expedition. Bunch
grew very sick and we had to take him to this company at the Rye Cove. We
were then all dismissed and returned home. As well as he can recollect,
he states this took place in 1776. He does not recollect the particular
month, except that it was in warm weather. Andrew Lynam in his
Revolutionary War pension statement filed in Bath Co., KY, on June 23,
1833, also tells of the above killing in this manner:In the month of
June, he thinks the 1st, but cannot say as to the particularday, he
entered the service of the United States under Captain John Dunkin, as a
volunteer for three months in 1776. At the end of this three month tour
he again volunteered in Captain Dunkin's Company of militia for three
months. Was in the month of September the same year as before. We were
commanded by John Dunkin as Captain, and as our tour was to prevent the
Indians from committing outrages upon the defenseless inhabitants
