Plaque on Jesse Rickman

• Biography*: The STORY of HENDERSON COUNTY by Sadie Smathers Patton Sadie Smather Patton the author of the story was the great-great-grandaughter of Jesse Rickman, the following information was taken from her book. **********************************************************************************
  (Page 55) Jesse Rickman, whose old home place, Sycamore, adjoined the lands of Sitton on Mills River, was born in Charles City County, VA., May 2, 1770, the youngest child of Dr. William Rickman. His father, who for a long time maintained his office in the Masonic Hall at Williamsburg, was director of hospitals, both Continental and for the State of Virginia, during the Revolutionary War, until he submitted his resignation to the Congress in Philadelphia in 1780. The Family were from a long line of Quaker ancestors, many of whom where ministers, several of the women belonging to the sisterhood of nurses established by that sect in various section of England. Dr. Rickman had served with English troops during the French and Indian wars, and at the time he was proposed as director of hospitals, there was opposition by some members of Congress on the grounds that he might by a sympathizer of the english cause. He was also know as "Rickman, the Quaker." Jesse Rickman came to North Carolina shortly after his father's death and served with American troops in the Wilmington District in 1783 & 1784. On Jan 10, 1791, he married Mary, a daughter of Martin and Ann Trantham, whose home on Potts Creek was in the Jersey Settlement of Rowan County. During those years, there was a large and active body of Quakers in Eastern North Carolina, as is evidenced in reports of their Monthly Meetings in Hinshaw's Quaker Genealogy. There are many evidences that Jesse Rickman had some affiliation with this group of people during his early years in North Carolina, though it seems doubtful that this continued actively after his marriage. A daughter of Jesse and Mary Rickman, the youngest child, died in 1832, and by her request was buried on the hillside above the home, this being the first grave in the family burial plot at Sycamore, where members of six generations, together with other early residents of the community are now sleeping. Mary Trantham Rickman died in 1836, and the next year Jesse was married to Rhoda Gadd, a widow of Rutherford County, whose mother Stacey Taylor had been a daughter of Elijah Williamson on Mud Creek. On April 14, 1860, when the church conregation at Mills River held its regular service, resolutions constituting a memorial to Jesse Rickman who had donated the site where their building stood, were duly entered in the Minute Record. At the time of his death, Jesse Rickman had been living for more than forty five years at the old home place, Sycamore on the south prong of upper Mills River. Prior to that, he had conveyed a portion of his lands to his son Martin, with whom he made his home. The north side of his farm he had given to his daughter Margaret, commonly called Peggy, and her husband Jeremiah Taylor, a Baptist Preacher. Aunt Peggy was known throughout the community as an obstetrical doctor who numbered her patients by the hundreds.

Smathers and infant sons, as well as many other descendants are buried in the graveyard which is situated just above the site of the Jesse Rickman first house at Sycamore.
  **********************************************************************************
  (Page 174) Jesse Rickman and his family left the farm they had owned on Dyck's Creek in Rowan about 1803, and moved to Fairvew on Cane Creek in Buncombe. Before that time Jesse must have abandoned any relationship with the Quakers, if we judge by the significant inscription carved on the headstones which mark his grave and that of his wife Mary at Sycamore, which says that each of them "Joined the Baptist church in 1802" When the historic Baptist Church at Cane Creek was organized by Humphrey Posey, Jesse Rickman and his wife were amoung its charter members. The old stone at his grave says that Rickman was a deacon in churches of that denomination forty-four years, and from records of his service in the several places where he was a member during his life, it can be determined that he must also have been one of the two deacons ordained in 1805 at Cane Creek. This position he continued to hold there and later at Mills River Baptist Church, until he returned his membership to old French Broad Church in 1849. He and his family moved from Fairview to upper Mills River about 1815 and built a home on lands he had bought from Henry Grady, grandfather of the reowned Henry Woodfin Grady, whose family then lived only a few miles away. With French Broad Baptist Church situated several miles distant, Jesse and his neighbors were not long in taking steps to provide for services nearer to their community. A deed from Jesse Rickman in 1836 conveyed to the Trustees of the United Baptist Church (now known as Mills River Baptist Church), three acres of land in Buncombe County where the old church now stands. The grove where the first church house stood surrounded by its three acres, was on the spot known as Sycamore Bend from which the Jesse rickman home place took its name. The board of Trustees appointed at a meeting of the congregation on November 21, 1835 to accept the deed from Jesse Rickman to the Baptist Church, met again on January 23, 1836 at which time they formally received the instrument. The initial steps toward organizing a church body at sycamore Bend was November 30, 1834 when a petition was addressed to French Broad Baptist Church asking them to visit and see if it thought the little flock to be of ability to become a church. when the formal organization was concluded on June 27, 1835 the charter members were: Jesse Rickman and wife, Merit Rickman and wife, Martin Rickman and wife, Joseph Kuykendall and wife, Philip Sitton and wife, John Gillespie, Elihu McKinna, Winifred Sitton, Mary Sitton, Jane Gillespie and Sarah McKinna. During the services of that day, Merit Rickman was ordained as a deacon. He had been baptized in Mills River by Rev. Robert Jordan, the first person to receive the rite of baptism there. He had been one of the moving spirits in organizing the church, and later was ordained there on August 23, 1837. The church chose him as their first pastor at the next meeting and he continued to serve in that capacity for seventeen years, then removed to Macon County where he spent the rest of his life as pastor of the Cowee Church, devoting much of his time to work amoung the Indians. His wife, who had been Sarah Sitton, a daughter of Phillip Sitton of the Iron Works was a witness on the day of Merit's baptisim, her infant son , Philip Riley in her arms. The church organized at Fletcher in 1838 was first known as Blake's Meeting House, a name later changed to Salem. There in territory which had first been embraced within French Broad Association, in the same year of its organization, there was also formed Salem Associtation. This body, which was composed of nine churches Cane Creek, Bethany, Crab Creek, Beulah, Ebenezer, French Broad, Mills River, Mt Pleasant and Mud Creek, included all territory of the state south of Buncombe, as well as a portion of that county and what that same year became Henderson. Its ministers were Thomas Stadley, James Blythe, Bailey Bruce, Merit Rickman, William Mintz, Robert Jordan, Jacob Cantrell, Jonathan King and J. Evans. Under their leadership, Salem became the strongest and most aggressive amoung the Associations in the western part of the state, interested and anxious to have part in all the affairs of the Baptist Church in North Carolina.
  **********************************************************************************
  (Page 237 / Chapter 14) The Convention of 1868 made many changes affecting the individual counties; all restrictions which had prohibited any voter from holding office were removed, the county Court of Common Pleas and Quarter Sessions was abolished; provision was made for magistrates to be elected by the people, and a Board of County Commissioners to transact affairs of the County was authorized. This Board was elected first by the people, but in 1876, as a means of protecting the eastern counties, where negro voters were in the majority, the Legislature amended the law to allow County commissioners to be chosen by vote of the magistrates, a method which continued until 1895. The city government from the time the first charter was issued for Hendersonville in 1847, was by five commissioners, a magistrate of police, a constable and an overseer of streets, elected yearly in an election called by the sheriff of Henderson County. Apparently there was no amendment to this charter and no change in the town's form of government until some time after the State Convention of 1868. There are no known records of any official acts during that period, or for several years after. The Legislature of 1872-73 passed an act which authorized all incorporated towns in North Carolina to elect a mayor and board of Commissioners. Tradition, generally recognized as being founded in fact, says that Hendersonville, shortly after that made changes by which Dr. T.A. Allen was elected first Mayor of the town. Verification of this found in a statement made by T.J. Rickman, who was a resident of Hendersonville at that period, and who in later years filled the same office.
  **********************************************************************************
  (Page 258) J.P. Rickman, a member of the family who lived on upper Mills River, came to Hendersonville about the same time his brother T.J., was beginning the partice of law in town, and engaged in the mercantile business, first in the rock store below the Court House, and later on the east side of Main Street, between 3rd & 4th Avenues. He became a recognized leader of his time, and served one time as Mayor of the town. One home which he built stood on the present site of the Kentucky Home; later he purchased the Pickens Hill and tower, and erected a house there which with additions and alterations later became Park Hill Inn. He organized and was president of one of the town's banks for a few years, before disposing of all interests here, and moving to Greenville, South Carolina. Amoung men associated with him who were business leaders for many years were A. Ficker, J.O. Williams, G.W. Brooks, and C.E. Maddrey. He married Miss Valerie Justus, a daughter of M.T. Justus; both are buried in Greenville.
  **********************************************************************************
  (Page 122) Rev. Nelson Bowen began publication of the Cottage Visitors in 1867, and this was succeeded by The Blue Ridge Baptist with Thomas J. Rickman as its editor. Mr. Rickman, who was a son of John Rickman of Mills River, was then forming his first associations with Hendersonville, where for many years afterward he was a member of its local bar, mayor of the town and active in other fields of endeavor until he moved to Asheville about 1905. He was at the time of his death in 1937, the last surviving member of the first Bar Association ever formed in North Carolina, which followed as the outgrowth of an organization perfected under his chairmanship in 1883. **********************************************************************************
