In 1772 his family and a few friends removed to his new abode on the Ohio. There was not at the time a perma- nent Anglo-Saxon settlement from the source to the mouth of the Ohio. The little band at Wheeling stood alone in the im- mense solitude. In 1773 many families join- ed the settlement. Zane's intercourse with tlie Indians was marked by mildness and honorable dealing — hence his hamlet es- caped the fur>- of the savages until 1777.
All three brothers were men of enterprise, piudence and s...ound judgment, and the Wheeling settlement was mainly due to them for its security and preservation dur- ing the revolution. He was conspicuous dur- ing the siege of Fort Henry, and brought himself so prominently before the public that he received various marks of distinction from the colonial state and Federal govern- ments. He was a disbursing officer under Dunmore. and enjoyed under the common- wealth numerous civil and military distinc- tions. Col. Zane's fearlessness was exempli- fied by his almost single-handed defence of his own dwelling, in the fall of 1782.
