  Notes	This marriage is interesting because it joins two branches of the Gregg family that seem to have diverged back in Ireland or Scotland (though how they once diverged seems to be unknown). The name seems to derive from "MacGregor." On both sides the family is Scots-Irish. Sarah Gregg's family is descended from William Gregg, the immigrant ancestor of the "Quaker Greggs" who came from (northern) Ireland to Delaware. John Gregg's ancestors derive from immigrant ancestor Samuel Gregg, who also immigranted from Ireland, and whose ancestor Capt. David Gregg fought in Cromwell's army. The line which the tree on this site traces descends through their son Aaron, whose daughter Elizabeth married into the Hamilton family, and thence to the Mannens and Lansdales. Note that this couple's daughter Elizabeth married Aaron Harlan, whose ancestors had also married into Greggs; their daughter Hannah also married John O. Hamilton, brother of another direct ancestor. According to Kendall, "After their marriage they lived in Green Co., PA, moved down the Ohio River to 'Buchanan's Station,' now Germantown, Kentucky, in 1792. . . . In Loudoun Co., Virginia on May 25, 1775 John Gregg was admitted to the Society of Friends. On Nov. 25, 1775 John Gregg joined the Military and was disowned. John Gregg served in the Revolution and was disowned. In the spring of 1793 he with William Buchanan and his wife Jane went across the Ohio River [from Germantown, KY] into Clermont Co. [Ohio] to build a log cabin on the site of the Neville. A wrong survey caused them to give up 1,000 acres to avoid trouble and [they] went back to Kentucky. John Gregg had not taken his family because the children were too small. . . . John built in Warren Co. [and] died of fever. Issue [were] born in Pa, returned to Kentucky with widowed mother; requested by dying father" (243). Seems like the one exception here is that Hannah born in 1795 must have been born in Kentucky if they migrated in 1792. He is buried near Carntown in Pendleton Co., Ky, right across the Ohio River from Moscow, Ohio.

  Histories

  Revolutionary War This page collects the people on this site who served in the Revolutionary War. Some are militia; some served in the Line troops. It includes both loyalists and patriots. There may well be others on the tree who should be included. Some could use more secure evidence: genealogical histories often say that someone "fought in the Revolution," but this can be family legend rather than fact. Sources are cited under each person's page. War and Pension records can be found on line at the National Archives. Genealogies can be ordered from the DAR and the SAR, but their lists only include those whom people have used to join, not all veterans.
