Moved southward to Clumberland Co., Pa. then after 1790 moved to Virginia. His will was dated May 22, 1796, He was sick at this time and diedshortly afterwards. He was a blacksmith, the Gish's were dunkards andbelonged to the church of the brethren. Christian built a substantialhouse of logs on hisland, approximately 1/4 mile north of the site of Robert Breckinridge's house which stood to the rear of the Dr. R. Boaz home in Daleville. The land on which this house was built was conveyed in later years to Peter Nininger, eventually coming into the possession of Ben. F. Nininger who was one of the builders of Botetourt Normal School, later known as Daleville College.
The Christian Gish house still stands on what is left of the Daleville College Campus and is in good repair. The house has been weatherboardedand some years ago repaired and modernized; becoming an apartment house. The president of Daleville College lived in the house while the college was in operation. The circular limestone rock columns on the frontporch are very unique.
A permit was granted Christian Gish to build a mill on Tinker Creek in 1797, apparently after his death. In any event, it is an accepted fact that the Gish family built a mill on Tinker Creek, thought to have been on the site where Daleville Mill was later built and operated by the Nininger family. Records show that Peter Nininger's son, William, operated Daleville Mill for many years.
