---------- Donegal was one of the thirteen original townships of Washington County laid out in 1781, the year the County was erected out of part of Westmoreland County. The first reduction of the large area of Donegal was made by the erection of Finley Township from it on May 6 1788. On December 24 1828, East Finley and West Finley Townships were made out of the residual of "Old" Finley, which had given territory to other townships. [Ref: Craig BYERS p13]

During the Revolution Western Washington County, PA, was often attacked by Indians. This is the story of five neighbors whose experiences are centered on two days: Saturday Aug 25 1781 and Sunday March 31 1782. In 1774-75 these families (likely from Maryland) settled on the upper part of the Dutch Fork of Buffalo Creek - a few miles west and northwest of present Claysville.
Jacob Miller, John Hupp, Edward Gaither, Thomas Peak, William Hawkins. Map in [Keyhole XVII,1 Jan 89, p10] shows the five farms. All names were on the tax list in 1778 for Ohio County, (West) Virginia - now Donegal Township, Washington County. Each got a Virginia certificate for land in 1780 or 1781. These certificates entitled them to Pennsylvania land grants.
On the evening of August 24 1781, Jacob Miller Jr, Francis Hupp, brother of John, and Jacob Fisher, on a scouting expedition, were invited to spend the night at the cabin of Jonathan Link on Middle Wheeling Creek, just east of the present state line. Link's family had gone to Wheeling for safety. The men were unaware that Inians would surround the cabin in the night. The next morning Fisher and Hupp were shot as they stepped out of the cabin. Link and Miller were taken captive.
The Indians then headed northeast toward Dutch Fork to attack the cabins there. William Hawkins was visiting at the cabin of Thomas Peak. Hawkins and Presley Peak, son of Thomas, were taken captive. The Indians then divided into two groups. One went up the creek toward the Hawkins cabin, the other down toward the Gaither cabin. At the Hawkins cabin they captured Elizabeth, the Hawkins daughter, who was ill in bed. The mother and three younger children had heard the shots at Peak's and had fled into thick hazel bushes. The Indians passed within a few feet of them, but did not find them.
The party going down the creek expected to surprise the Gaither family, but the Gaithers, about to be seated for dinner, hearing the shots at Peak;s, fled north to the fort at Millers. They probably warned the Hupps to join them. The Indians ate the dinner at Gaither's and left after burning the cabin. John Cain lived here 100 years later. See map. The Indians killed Link and Hawkins, not liking his red hair. Miller escaped the first night by chewing his thongs. Elizabeth Hawkins must have been released after the War, for she married David Gibson. Presley Peak was released at Quebec November 2 1782. Collections of the Vermont Historical Society, II 357 (1871). What a story he must have told, when he returned home.
At the time of the 1782 attack the settlers were gathered in the Miller fort, because of Indian alarms. The Indians had been aroused by the killing a few weeks before by Washington County men of 100 Moravian Indians at Gnaddenhutten, Ohio. Indians surrounded the fort during the night. The next morning, Easter Sunday March 31 1782, they killed John Hupp and Jacob Miller Sr, who had gone out to look for a lost colt. In the fort were Mrs. Hupp, Mrs. Miller, Mathias Ault, stepfather of John Hupp, Edward Gaither, and their families. Jacob Miller Jr and others had gone to Rice's fort for any news of Indians. On hearing the shots at Miller's, Jacob Jr, Jacob Rowe, brother of Ann Hupp, and Philip Hupp, brother of John returned to help defend the fort. The Indians finally left.
Many of the stories of these times have been lost, but the accounts of these two events were related by John Hupp Jr (1780-1864) and publisted in Creigh's History of Washington County. An account of the 1781 event was given by Lydia Cruger (1766-1867) to Lyman Draper. Draper Papers 2S153-4, Madison, Wisconsin. The Hawkins, Hupp, and Miller families continued to live on their farms. Edward Gaither sold his land in 1806. There is no further record. Thomas Peak sold his farm and all his possessions in 1789. [Ref: Bell IndianAttacks]
