Notes on Ephriam Noah Kiser and Mary Polly Sutherland

Ephriam Noah Kiser and Mary Polly Sutherland lived on a farm near Carbo, Virginia, in the Clinch River area. Ephriam bought land on the Clinch River, up Dumps Creek and onto Sandy Ridge (so named because of its sandy soil and seemingly inexhaustible amount of sandstone rock). About two years after their marriage their first child was born. They had twelve sons and one daughter. On October 16, 1813 Ephriam enlisted in Lt. Andrew Caldwell's Company of Virginia Militia and was sent to Norfolk. There he was transferred to Captain John Dillard's Company and served in the Artillery on Craneys Island. He was Honorably discharged on March 13, 1814. Both belonged to the Baptist Church.

She died of heart dropsy.They are both buried on a cliff on the south bank of the Clinch River just above Carbo. Some others buried there were: Uncle Nimrod Kiser, Warren Kiser, and Ephriam & Mary's sons Ephriam and Elijah. No tombstones have ever been erected there. Pioneer Recollections: page 199. Ephriam was the fifth son born. He had the light coloring of his German ancestry and was not quite 6 feet tall. Source: David V Hughey: caymanprof@yahoo.com
