3. | John See (1.Catherine1) was born on 10 Oct 1757 in Hardy County, WV; died on 2 Jan 1837 in Macon County, IL. Notes:
John enlisted in the Virginia Volunteer Militia in 1776 under Capitan Arbuckle in Greenbriar County, Va. for the term of one year for the purpose of defending the western frontier from hostile Indians. He was stationed at Fort Randolph at the junction of the Kanawha River and the Ohio River. They were building the fort at this time.
While stationed there, Chief Cornstalk came into camp and offered to aid the settlers against the British, however many of the soldiers were under the influence of liquor and were making inflammatory remarks against the Chief, so the Capt. locked Chief Cornstalk and his son Ellinipsco and Chief Red Hawk in the jail for their protection. The soldiers overran the officers and sentries and took Chief Cornstalk out for execution. He bravely folded his arms while hit seven times by musket fire. Chief Red Hawk and Ellinipsco had the same fate of being shot by the drunken mob of soldiers.
After John's enlistment was up he joined for another three years, enlisting in the Colonial Army of the Virginia Line, 19th Virginia Regiment under General Scott's Brigade. They joined forces under General Washington at West Camp, Pennsylvania and wintered at Valley Forge in 1777-1778.
John participated in the battles of Germantown, Monmouth and the storming of Stony Point. At one time he was taken as a prisoner of war.
John applied for a pension in Henry Co., Indiana in 1832. The last payment was made on Jan 2, 1837. His pension claim number was S.17538.
John married Margaret J. Jarrett about 23 Sep 1780 in Charleston, Kanawha County, WV. Margaret was born in 1761 in Wolf Creek, Greenbriar County, WV; died in 1836 in Cass County, IN. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

5. | George See (1.Catherine1) was born in 1755 in Moorefield, Hardy County, WV; died in 1835 in Warren Twp., Marion County, MO. Notes:
George was in the Revolutionary War. In a copy of John Kippers' Rev. War papers from Monroe Co., Mo. George said that he was 80 years old and that he knew John Kippers and that they were soldiers together. George named the battles and Arbuckle as the Captain and that he was in the army in 1777 and 1778. However DAR records state that he married Martha George in Greenbriar Co., Va.
George wrote in a letter that he had a brother named John See at Flat Rock, Indiana and Rev. John See did live in Flat Rock, Indiana at that time.
Letter sent to my father Joe B. See in 1956 stated that George went to Mo. about 1810. Some of his sons came later.
Another letter sent to Joe B. See in 1966 from a Harry See of Monroe City, Mo. stated that George went to Monroe City, Mo.. abt 1815 or 1818 and that George applied for a pension in 1835, about the same time John Kippers did.
DAR records state that their marriage took place on Oct. 25, 1777 even though he stated he was in the service at that time when filing for a pension later.
Joe See's research found that a George See disposed of his farm, 383 acres of land, in Hampshire Co., Va., and purchased 218 acres of the west side of Tygarts Valley River in the Caplinger Settlement in 1785. Several old genealogists wrote Joe and gave the list of his children.
This is an assumption on my part, Harold J. See, that it is one and the same George See (1998) so I will connect them until some one lets me know otherwise.
George married Martha George on 25 Dec 1777 in Alderson, Greenbrier, West Virginia, USA. Martha was born before 1755 in Hampshire County, WV; died in 1810 in Logan County, KY. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
