- Q17423800 abstract "Thomas Bloomer Balch was a Presbyterian pastor during the American Civil War. Thomas was born to Stephen Bloomer Balch and Elizabeth [Beall] Balch on February 28, 1793 at Georgetown, District of Columbia, US. Thomas was a graduate of the College of New Jersey in 1813 and Princeton Theological Seminary in 1817, where he was a member of the American Whig Society. Hampden-Sydney College conferred an honorary DD on him in 1860. Daniel Webster is supposed to have described him as the most learned man he had ever known.Baltimore Presbytery ordained Thomas on October 31, 1816. For several years he assisted his father in the church at Georgetown, Virginia. He accepted a call to Snow Hill, Rehoboth and Pitts Creek, Maryland July 19, 1820. Snow Hill is the oldest Presbyterian Church in America.Thomas Balch was listed as a missionary in Fairfax County, Virginia from 1829 to 1836. His brother-in-law, Septimus Tuston, had been a regular preacher at Greenwich, Virginia between 1825 and 1842. This connection may have led to Thomas becoming the stated supply at Warrenton and Greenwich, Virginia 1836–38 and again 1874–78. He also supplied in Prince William and Nokesville.Just after he accepted the call to the churches in Maryland, Thomas Balch married Susan Carter of Fairfax, Va. (8/21/22) Susan was the daughter of Charles Beal Carter of Shirley. Charles Beale Carter was an uncle of General Robert E. Lee. No doubt the marriage into the prominent and wealthy family helped Thomas financially.When Thomas and Susan moved to Prince William and Fauquier Counties, they bought a place between Auburn and Greenwich. He called the property Ringwood. He along with Jane Alexander Milligan ran a boarding school for girls there. Part of the structure was later remodeled.Thomas and his wife were direct observers of the American Civil War and interacted with both Confederate and Federal troops. Thomas wrote of their personal experiences in My Manse During the War.He died February 14, 1878 at his home, Ringwood. His wife, Susan, had expired the year before. His friend William Wilson Corcoran provided stones for the couple and they are buried in the Greenwich Presbyterian Cemetery in Greenwich, Virginia. During his lifetime Thomas Balch had ‘become almost as highly regarded by Virginia Presbyterians as his famous father had been by the citizens of Georgetown and Washington.'Dr. Thomas B. Balch frequently wrote for the Southern Literary Messenger, The Christian World, and published in Christianity and Literature.".
