- A large landowner on the Eastern Shore.
According to the Virginia Biographical Encyclopedia, he was "son of Thomas Savage and Esther, daughter of Nathaniel Littleton, great-great-grandson of Ensign Thomas Savage, was member of the Northampton committee of safety 1774-1776, of the convention of 1776 and of the first house of delegates 1776."
A Nathaniel Savage served as a Lieutenant of cavalry the Virginia LIne during the revolution, and was on Feb. 8th, 1783 awarded Land Warrant No. 0118 (2, 666 and 2/3 acres) on Shawnee Creek in Ballard County, Kentucky. I'm not at all sure that this is the same person. [1]
