Notes for George See

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.
