The History of the Erwin Name

The Erwin name has gradually evolved over a period of many years from a beginning during the middle stone age, which began around 8,000 years ago. A group of Teutonic people living in the upper Rhine valley took the name of their occupation, which was that of wine makers, and thus were called Wyne. These people worshipped many gods, and it is obvious from their writings that these gods played an important part in their lives. The earliest form of Teutonic writing appeared about 3100 B.C., and was called Runic. Runic inscriptions have been found in Denmark, Norway, Jutland, and other Scandinavian areas.

Among these many gods, "Odin" and "Thor" were perhaps the most important. Odin had the distinction of being the father of Thor, but it was Thor, the god of thunder, who got the most attention. Thor usually carried a heavy hammer, and even when he did not, the hammer could appear magically in his hand at any time. He also wore a girdle that kept his strength renewed. Thor was not only mighty in battle, but was the provider for the necessities of life.

In those days, the leading families spelled their name with the sign ** before the family name, which was Runic for God, and so the name became Thuir-Wyne, since the leading god of the people was Thor.

It should be mentioned here that some historians credit one Duncan Erinvine, born about 950 A.D., as having been the progenitor of the line. But since many similar names existed previously to this time, especially those beginning with an I, it is difficult to draw conclusions now regarding the absolute origin of the name. I choose to believe that at the very least, there is room for doubt that Erwin, as it is spelled today, did not evolve from a much earlier time. .

Early accounts have been found indicating that the Teutons migrated south from Jutland, at that time comprising the mainland of Denmark, the northern portion of the German state of Schleswig-Holstein and parts of Norway and Sweden. The Teutons were related to the Cimbri people, with whom they controlled an area lying roughly between the Rhine and Elbe rivers. Later, in some places in Europe, including southern France, the Thuir-Wynes were one of the leading families. During the advent of Christianity, they accepted the new religion, and ceased to worship their pagan god Thor. Thus the name gradually became Urwyne or Irwyne.

According to tradition, when the Teutons had renounced their pagan god, a military and religious order was formed, called the Teutonic Knights. The organization was set up primarily for the purpose of serving as protectors for the unprotected. It seems, however, that it turned into a religious war, with the objective of converting those who were still pagan to Christianity, by force where necessary. At one time, the Teutonic Knights controlled an area commanding the Baltic coast from the Oder River to present-day Leningrad. It is interesting to note that some of the names found in these Baltic countries appear 2,000 years later in the western part of North Carolina, where a group of Erwins established themselves.

During the eighth and seventh centuries B.C., the Vikings had invaded Scotland. Evidently, territory was taken over and communities established. Another ancient race, the Picts, were living in northern and central Scotland when the Vikings arrived. Little is known about the Picts, but some historians say that they came from Thrace, in northern Greece, during the Ice Age, crossing the English Channel on foot. Others say that they were pre-Celtic and non-European. When the Irwynes first settled in Scotland, they were either blond or red-haired people, indicating their Scandinavian ancestry. In time, they amalgamated with the Picts, and became a people of brown hair. This is true today of the population in large areas of Scotland.

In the seventh century A.D., Norway was the first nation to be taken over by the Danish Vikings, after a brief war during which the Norwegian navy was demolished. But, like many other nations and lands brought under their control, no effort was made to subjugate the people and most Norwegians who were not already, became Vikings. In the ninth century the Norwegian Vikings settled in Ireland, converting to Christianity and built Ireland's first towns, including Dublin, in 841 A.D. Many Runic letters and inscriptions have been found in Dublin.

Except for Wessex, the Vikings controlled all of England by 855 A.D. Soon after, they also took over the Isle of Mans, Norway, and a large portion of France. But little effort was made to consolidate the vast empire, and following the death of Edward The Confessor, a struggle began between the Viking leaders to occupy the Throne of England. King Harald of Norway, King Harold of Essex, and the Duke of Normandy were primary combatants. When Harald and

Harold engaged in battle with each other, the Duke moved into position and defeated Harold at the Battle of Hastings. With the help of Norse descendants, the Duke became William the Conqueror, ending a long period of Viking rule.

Historians believe that the Irwyns, the Picts, and other groups living in Scotland, repelled an invasion force of the Roman Army from England at a period of time when Rome ruled the world. On the border between England and Scotland the clans held their ground in charge after charge by the Roman soldiers, and eventually, the Scots practically annihilated two entire Legions of Romans. Many flat stones have been found in that area with names of Romans scratched on them, faced down.

The Scots later became a more aggressive fighting force, after developing a new and terrifying weapon, the long bow. The weapon itself was useless without the physical capabilities and training to use it, because the strength of the bow was such that the arms alone of a strong man could not bend it. A great deal of time was required to develop the technique of using the entire body weight and strength to send an arrow capable of piercing the mailed shirt, breeches and saddle of an armored soldier, and pin him to the side of his horse.

For a period of several hundred years, Scotland was probably the only nation in the world not controlled by a centralized form of government. Each area covering a few square miles was ruled by a Lord or Chieftain and was called a tribal area. Each tribe kept a small trained army for protection against the English. Because of their warlike nature, when there were no outside enemies to fight, which was seldom, tribal wars would break out among them. For the youth of Scotland, war games were their occupation. The advent of the Long-Bow required much strenuous training and a long period of time to master it. A young boy's training began with a smaller bow, and gradually built up. Under their tribal laws, six weeks every summer were spent in marauding expeditions and during this period, they had to exist off of the land. The clans were led by a Chief or Chieftain, which after some indefinite time became a Knight. This was the beginning of a period in history when Knights became popular, even with Kings.

During this time, in southeastern Scotland, a fortress and tower were erected near the Kirtle River, which came to be known as the Bonshaw Tower. Although early records of this area are few, it is believed that the lands were given as a dowry in the marriage between Duncan Eryvine ( Erinvine ? ) of Eskdale and the heiress of an ancient British royal family named Coel Hen. The original wooden tower and fortress were probably built about 900 A.D. but were sacked and burned more than once and rebuilt, eventually in stone. It is clear that a clan of Irvings defended this area for many years.

The tower survives to this day, rising about 52 feet above the ground and still holds the original clan bell, whose urgent peal once summoned hundreds of Irving clansmen to the aid of their chief.

Scotland was invaded time and time again over a period of several hundred years primarily by the English, with little success. They would usually gain control over territory that had been occupied by two or three clans, but seldom did they take any prisoners or livestock. The Scots would vanish into the hills with their families and possessions, where the English weighted down with their armor, could not follow. Then, when least expected, the Scottish warriors would make a sudden swift-footed charge with javelin, sword, and warhorn down hillside of glynn demoralizing their opponents, while the men with the Long-Bows would be moving into position on either side. This particular invasion would thus end. This type of living went on for many years, until the tenth and eleventh centuries, when King David brought about change. He was the great-grandson of Crynin Erwine.

Crynin Erwine (or Ervine as spelled in the British Museum) was Rector of a Parish called Dull. He married Beatrix, daughter of King Malcolm. Crynin and Beatrix Ervine were the parents of Duncan, who married Sybilla. King Malcolm selected his grandson, Duncan, to succeed him as King of Scotland. This was the King Duncan murdered by his cousin Macbeth, in his ruthless endeavor to gain for himself the throne of Scotland. Some years later, Malcolm III, son of former King Duncan and Sybilla, attacked and destroyed Macbeth, after which he ruled from 1057 until 1093 A.D. Thus, Crynin Erwine became the ancestor of all Scottish Kings thereafter.

Some of these Scottish kings carried the Irwyne name. Alexander III, who ruled from 1249 to 1286, was the last. He and his wife Margaret had two sons who died young, and a daughter Margaret Irwyne, who married Eric the Red, King of Norway. With an expedition party, they discovered a frigid island, and named it Greenland. Remnants of Eric's house, artifacts pertaining to Christianity, and parts of a church built for Margaret have been found. Eric and Margaret had one daughter Margaret, called "The Maid of Norway", who became heir to the Scottish throne upon the death of her grandfather, Alexander III. But she died at the age of 8.

Holmes-Corey, Ltd., records, "One of the earliest written accounts of the ERWIN name, written in Latin, was in the Domesday Book of 1086. The Domesday Book was one of the most celebrated acts of William the Conqueror, Duke of Normandy." This book contained a description and valuation of the lands of England, and statements of the income of every man. We find the ERWIN name in the "MANORIAL ROLLS", so-called because King Edward I had decreed that all manorial property should be maintained on record. It seems that the ERWIN name assumed its present form after the invasion of the Normans in 1066. However, different spellings of the same original surname are a common occurrence. Dictionaries of surnames indicate spelling variations of ERWIN to be ERVIN, IRWIN, AND IRVING. In earlier times, it was also spelled IRWYN and IRWINE. It is a well-known fact that literacy was generally lacking among most people living at this time and formal spelling was practically unknown.

Consequently, over the many years that man has been able to document his existence, more than 200 variations in spelling and pronunciation of this and other similar surnames have appeared in the record and among the people. The list below contains most of these, but whether they are all actually simple variations of the ERWIN surname, or whether some are evolutions of other surnames is impossible to substantiate.

A branch of the Erwin family acquired a considerable estate in the 14th century. This was the result of events which began in 1296 when King John I of Scotland, who was hated by his subjects, abdicated the throne and fled into exile. Immediately, King Edward I of England gathered an army and invaded Scotland, raping and pillaging the land, whereupon the Scotch rose up to oppose him. They soon found a champion in Robert deBrus, who amassed a small army, asserted his claim to the Scottish throne, and attempted to drive Edward from Scottish soil. Although he was able to ambush Edward’s troops on at least one occasion, Robert was defeated and in 1298 was forced to flee whereupon he sought refuge and support at Bonshaw Tower. Its chief, Irvine of Bonshaw, hid Robert deBrus in the tower for a period of time and later, in a secret cave along the Kirtle River. Subsequently, Robert gathered more supporters and eventually left Bonshaw to continue his crusade against Edward, taking a son named William Irving of Bonshaw with him.

In 1306, Robert deBrus was successful in driving Edward back toward England and he ascended to the throne of Scotland, although Edward continued to make war against him for a number of years. After many battles, Robert finally defeated Edward’s army in 1314 at Bannockburn, and brought to a halt the English invasions. As a reward for his assistance, Irvine of Bonshaw was given lands and Alexander deIrwyn (believed to be the father of William Irving) was given a portion of Drum Park, located in Aberdeen. Then, in 1323, William Irving, now known as William de Irwyn, was granted a free barony by charter from the King in the Royal forest of Drum, which included a fortress built more than a century earlier. William de Irwyn now became the first Laird (Lord) Drum, and the fortress and the estate remained in the hands of the Irwyns (today known as the Irvines) for the next 653 years.

Drum Castle, one of the most beautiful castles in Scotland, is located about 10 miles from the center of Aberdeen and the barony is still active, today being held by the current Laird Drum, Charles Francis Irvine.

Certainly the Irwyn name has left a lasting impression on the Scottish people. Near the mouth of the river Irwine, in the Firth of Clyde, is the City of Irwine, an industrial center in Ayrshire, Scotland. But it also is apparent that Erwins were living in many areas of Europe during the Middle Ages. Johanner Erwin Von Stimbath, born in Stimbath, Baden, Germany was the architect of the Cathedral at Strasburg. He died in 1318, when the cathedral was half finished. His son, John Erwin, completed the structure. Samuel Pepys (English History) described in his diary (begun in 1660) how "..on Aug. 17, 1666, up and betimes with Captain Erwin down by water to Woolwich...back with Captain Erwin, discoursing about the East Indys, where he hath been often."

According to McDowell's Book of the Irwins, "...members of the scotch Ervine clan for political and religious reasons left Scotland and settled in Ireland." Although we cannot document exactly when and how they arrived, it is known that they existed in Ulster Province of Northern Ireland by the year 1700 A.D. At least one branch of the family made the move about 1612. Many of these were descended from a colony of Scotch Presbyterians and while there were some intermarriages between the Scotch and the Irish Catholics, for the most part the two groups kept apart. It is evident that the Scotch became firmly established in this area and prospered, putting to use things that had been learned in Scotland. Sir John Erwin (1728-1788) even became Governor of Gibralter (Ireland), Commander-in-Chief of Ireland, and a favorite with George III of England. But eventually, their flourishing manufactories of linen and woolen goods aroused the jealousy of English merchants and by the close of the 17th century their industry was crippled by adverse legislation.

Adding to their economic woes, religious persecution came in the early years of the eighteenth century. They were forbidden to have schools, marriages performed by their clergy were declared illegal, and they were deprived of the right to hold office. These persecutions led to emigration to America. Between 1730 and 1770, a half million of them came to this country. By the time of the American Revolution, about 1/6 of the total population of the colonies were Scotch-Irish.

Early Erwin emigrants to America include George Erwin, entering the continent in 1640 to New Norfolk Co., Virginia (Greer's List of early emigrants from England to Virginia), and Dr. John Irvine, who located in Liberty Co, Georgia about 1765, and was the founder of the Georgia Medical Society. Their daughter Anne Irvine, born Jan 14, 1770, married Captain James Bullock, the eldest son of Archibald Bullock, President of Georgia, and were the parents of James Bullock Jr., who was the father of Martha Bullock, mother of President Theodore Roosevelt. It is said that the Scotch Erevine clan had as descendants in the U.S.A., President Andrew Jackson, President Benjamin Harrison, Washington Irving, the author, and General Robert Irwin of the Revolutionary War.

The Abridged Compendium of American Genealogy, published in 1925 by A.N. Marquis & Company of Chicago lists a Samuel Erwin at Falls of Schuykill. The record states that he was the father of Jane Erwin, who married Allan MacLean, and their son Allan was born in 1746. This would place Samuel in America at a very early time in its history. But there is no record of any male descendants of Samuel carrying the Erwin name.

About 1767, the Joseph Irwin family, including sons Nathaniel, William, Arthur, John, Hugh, and Alexander, migrated from Ulster Province to North America, where they located first in Bucks County, Pennsylvania, and later moved on to other areas of the country. One of these Irwins, Arthur, spelled his name with an E. Arthur remained in Bucks County, accumulating land along the Delaware River. Arthur Erwin was a soldier in the Revolution, a Colonel in 1778, under General Putnam of the Bucks County Militia. Colonel Erwin's plantation was a few miles above where General Washington made his crossing of the Delaware, and some of the boats were furnished by Colonel Erwin and were manned by his slaves and tenants. On May 25, 1791, Colonel Erwin was assassinated at the home of Colonel Samuel McAfee in Lucerne County, Penn. The patriarch of the family, Joseph, after a rich and varied life which included trips abroad and numerous profitable enterprises, died about 1803, and is buried at Erwinna, Penn.

Colonel Erwin had a son John who was captured in the Revolutionary War, on Nov 16, 1776, and spent nearly 5 years in a British prison ship in New York harbor. Although he died in 1782, only a short time after being released.

Nathaniel and his brother John moved southward, and settled in North Carolina, about the middle of the century. A large number of Erwin's have descended from their colony. Three other Erwin's, William, Hugh, and Alexander, who were related to Nathaniel, went elsewhere, and I have no information on them after this time.

About 1730 and later, many of the Scotch-Irish Irwin's, Erwin's, and Irving's crossed the ocean and located mainly in Pennsylvania and Virginia. They and their descendants later settled in different parts of the country. In 1848, Dr. James D. Erwin, son of General James D. Erwin and Sarah Robert of Barnwell Co, S.C., visited Ireland and Scotland, and according to Dr. Erwin's brother, the late Robert Erwin of Savannah, Georgia, he fully established the fact of six Erwin (Irwin) relations coming over on the same ship to start life in America. Dr. Jared Erwin, of Sandersville, Georgia, made the statement that all Erwin's are kin, no matter how they spell their name.

In 1790, there were at least 1600 men, women, and children named Erwin (20 different spellings) in the U.S.A., in 12 different states. Among these, Pennsylvania recorded 147, and Tennessee showed 96. So far, I have been unable to link John Spears Erwin with any of these early American settlers, but it is more than likely that he was related to most, if not all of them.

Biographical Sketches from Burke County, NC from articles published in Newspaper in 1894

These sketches were originally written by Col Thomas George Walton (1815-1905). 1st published in the old Morganton Herald in 1894


Part 1 - AVERY, BOWMAN, CARSON, ERWIN, GREENLEE, MCDOWELL, PICKENS, WALKER

THE BEGINNING: in part........

"My first recollection of Morganton and it's environs was at the age of three years, in the month of Dec,1819, when my brother WILLIAM McENTIRE WALTON was born. At that time, my father, THOMAS WALTON was living in a house in which he was merchandising, at the intersection of Union and Greene streets. I remember the crying of the babe. There was snow upon the Ground, and my two elder brothers, JAMES and JOHN WALTON , were engaged in catching snowbirds.
My long tried and beloved friend, the late Gov. T.R. CALDWELL (1818), born about 2 years after I was, in the same town, and myself, speaking our first recollections".........remembered the death of a child of Major JACOB FORNEY's of Cedar Grove, "caused by falling on a pair of pointed scissors."

Burke County was erected out of a part of Rowan County 8 Apr 1777. Morgan District was made up of the counties of Burke, Wilkes, Rutherford, Lincoln, Washington and Sullivan.

"Among the first settlers of Burke County of whom I had either personal knowledge or from information received from old residents during my early years, were MCDOWELL, BOWMAN, GREENLEE, ERWIN, AVERY, PICKENS, CARSON, MORRISON, TATE, HEMPHILL, MURPHY PERKINS, HILDEBRAND, CALDWELL, PEARSON, FORNEY, WALKER, BRITTAIN, DUCKWORTH, BALLEW, BOUCHELLE, and others too numerous to mention by name. These were men of mark, many of whom were distinguished for their patriotism during the Revolution; others had won the esteem and respect of the people, as evidenced by their selection as representatives in congress, legislature and offices of trust and profit of the county. Morganton, the county seat, was located shortly after the erection of the county in 1777. CHARLES MCDOWELL, SR and ALEXANDER ERWIN were appointed Commissioners by the Legislature to select a site, purchase or have
donated, land to erect public buildings, etc........""The lawyers whom I saw and knew during my childhood, youth and early manhood, and whose practice extended to many counties west of the Yadkin River were composed of many who had an exalted reputation for their skill and astuteness in conducting their cases, their legal attainments, brilliant oratory, and impressive arguments before a judge and jury.....being the brothers ROBERT H. and ALFRED BURTON, JULIUS and WALLACE ALEXANDER, JOSEPH WILSON, DAVID F. CALDWELL, BARTLETT SHIPP, DAVID L. SWAIN, THOMAS DEWS, SAMUEL HILLMAN, JOS. MCD. CARSON, MICHAEL HOKE, B.S.GAITHER, and others of later time, of the Morganton bar, who, if placed in the same constellation with those named,
would only have added to it's brilliancy......."

The MCDOWELLs, BOWMANs, and GREENLEEs came from Virginia to Burke County previous to the Revolution (late 1750). JOSEPH MCDOWELL's grant on Quaker Meadows was dated 1749. They were all related by marriage or consanguinity. JOSEPH MCDOWELL, SR., was of Scotch descent, and emigrated from North Ireland to America. He was born in 1715, and emigrated with his wife at an early age.

THE ERWIN family

"Col. WILLIAM WILLOUGHBY ERWIN of "Belvedere", one of the most highly respected and useful citizens of the county, was a man of great dignity of person and manner; so much so, that young men when first meeting him became shy and diffident, which was speedily removed by his general affability. He was long Clerk of the Superior Court, and was afterwards cashier of the first
branch bank of the State established in Morganton, and no doubt the well known business talent of some of his living descendants and others, was inherited from him."

"Col. JAMES ERWIN, of "Erwin's Delight", a cousin of Wm. W. ERWIN, was also a highly esteemed citizen; he was for many years an efficient clerk of the county. He accumulated a handsome fortune. In some things he was peculiar. He was appointed guardian of JAMES MURPHY's grandchildren, who had inherited from their grandfather what was considered a large fortune in this part of the state at the time. After my marriage, in 1837, to the eldest of the heirs, he
insisted upon resigning, and that I should take his place. Riding home with him shortly afterward, he said, "Tommy, my son, one of my neighbors said to Capt. MURPHY he believed little JIMMY ERWIN was a little cracked. "Well," said MURPHY, "if he is cracked, I never knew him to leak any. But, my son, I leaked a little when I bought the Cherokee land." Impelled by this anecdote
we both laughed heartily."
