[Brøderbund WFT Vol. 9, Ed. 1, Tree #2432, Date of Import: Oct 20, 2000] WILLIAM LEWIS TERRELL was born in 1768 in Albemarle County, Virginia, son of Joel Terrell and Anna Lewis. As his father died when he was only five years old, his childhood was disrupted and when his mother married Stephen Willis, the family moved to Rutherford County, North Carolina, and he was removed from the lifestyle enjoyed by near cousins and relatives in Albemarle County, Virginia. He was introduced to farming by his step-father and developed an ambition to develop his own farmland. At that time, many changes were taking place in the new nation, and when George Washington took the oath as President of the United States on April 30, 1789, in New York, the colonial era of America had come to its end. It had been 182 years since three ships had brought the first Virginians to Jamestown. Now thirteen states stretched from Georgia to New Hampshire, and the tide of settlement was flooding through the Appalachians into the West. It was the age of farmers. New York, the largest town in North America, had only 33000 residents. Philadelphia had grown into a metropolis of 28,000 when President Washington and the Congress moved there in 1790, pending the choice of a permanent capitol city. Otherwise, the United States was open land dotted only occasionally with small towns like Boston, Albany, Baltimore and Charleston. As a young adult, William Lewis had started exploring new territories and had drifted to Champaign County, Ohio, where he found other Terrells had settled. When his family was established and his mother's affairs in good order, he and his wife Martha, with their five children moved to Ohio and he quickly fit into the community on a farm he had purchased with his own funds. During the years that followed he traveled occasionally to assist his mother in disposing of the large estate accumulated by his late father. For himself he favored the more rugged life on the new frontier and was never interested in returning to Virginia or North Carolina to live.
