THEN HE W3ENT BACK HOME, AND AT THIS TIME GENTRY TAUGHT WILL THE BLACKSMITH TRADE. GENTRY WAS VERY STRICT WITH HIM. AS THE YEARS PASSED WILL DID MANY THINGS AND WORKED AT MANY TRADES. IT WAS DURING THIS PERIOD THAT HE TOOK CARE OF THE LITTLE STORE WAY UP AT IN THE MOUNTAINS, WHERE THE INDIANS KEPT HIM UNEASY IN THE DAYTIME AND THE PACK RATS AND WILD ANIMALS PROWLED AROUND AT NIGHT. HE ALSO WORKED AT THE MINES DOING THEIR BLACKSMITH WORK-- SOMETIMES IN WYOMING AND SOMETIMES IN UTAH.
IN 1885, WILL MET A GIRL WITH DARK BROWN EYES NAMED EMMA BIRCH. SHE LIVED ON A FARM ALL HER LIFE AND WAS THE OLDEST IN HER FAMILY, SO SHE HAD TO WORK HARD. SHE AND HER SISTER HAD TO HERD THE COWS AND SOMETIMES HAD TO SWIM THE COWS ACROSS THE RIVER, HANGING ONTO THEIR TAILS WHEN THEY SAW THE INDIANS COMING. SO, WILL AND EMMA MET. WILL COURTED EMMA FOR AT LEAST A YEAR. WILL PLAYED ON THE MAIN BASEBALL TEAM OF COALVILLE, UTAH.

THEY HAD A HARD TIME AND THEIR FIRST WINTER THERE WILL HAD TO GO BACK TO ALMY TO WORK. EMMA AND HER YOUNG SON STAYED ALONE EXCEPT FOR JACK BIRCH STAYING WITH THEM PART OF THE TIME. IT WAS A HARD WINTER FOR THEM, THEY HAD SUCH A LITTLE FEED FOR THE LIVESTOCK AND JUST HAD TO PULL THEM THROUGH UNTIL SPRING. WILL HAD A BLACKSMITH SHOP ON HIS FARM AND DID QUITE A LOT OF WORK IN IT.

HERE THEY BOUGHT LAND FROM LORD FAIRFAX, A GOOD FRIEND TO GEORGE WASHINGTON. THEY BUILT CABINS ALONG THE LOST RIVER. BUT, WHEN IT GOT TO CROWDED ALONG THE RIVER, JOHN OSBORN AND WIFE, ALONG WITH SEVERAL OTHERS, HEAR OF NEW LAND AVAILABLE IN GREENBIER COUNTY. THEY MOVED THERE SETTLING ON THE MUDDY RIVER AND MUDDY CREEK MOUNTAIN, NEAR THE NEWLY LAID OUT TOWN OF ALDERSON.
THIS MOVE TO THE MUDDY RIVER AND MUDDY CREEK MOUNTAIN AREA WAS DURING THE TIME OF THE REVOLUTIONARY WAR. THE OSBORNS AND RELATIVES DIDN'T SEND ANYONE TO HELP GENERAL WASHINGSTON'S ARMY. THEY APPARENTLY WERE TOO BUSY FIGHTING THE BRITISH ALREADY, IN THE FORM OF MURDEROUS INDIANS ON THE WESTERN FRONTIER. THE INDIANS COULD COLLECT A BOUNTY OF $50.00 FOR ANY COLONIST SCALP THEY COULD BRING TO THE BRITISH GARRISON AT DETROIT. WHILE THERE IS NO PARTICULAR RECORD OF INDIAN RAIDS UP THE MUDDY CREEK VALLEY, THERE WERE SEVERAL ATTACKS ON FORT SAVANNAH (NOW LEWISBURG) NEARBY.
