General Notes: Husband - James Magee

---

At the June term of Court of Common Pleas, 1821, James Magee, then eighty-six years of age, made statement under oath that early in 1776 he enlisted in the State of Delaware in a company commanded by Captain Lattimore, called the "Wilmington Greens" for a term of fifteen months. Subsequently he re-enlisted in the same State in a company commanded by Captain Mitchell. His company was attached to Colonel Grayson's regiment of the Virginia Line, and served till 1780. Mr. Magee participated in the battles of Brandywine, Paoli, Germantown and Monmouth.

"He was a private in the Continental Line Pennsylvania Volunteers, afterward in the Sixth Regiment, Pennsylvania Continental Line, Commanded by Col. Edward Hand, and later by Col. James Chambers, he participated in the battle of Long Island August 27, 1776, and in many others, was promoted October 1776, Sergeant in Capt. Jacob Bower's Company. On April 6, 1794 he took out a patent for 200 acres of land in Venango County, Pennsylvania; he drew a pension up to the time of his death in 1823; and his widow received a pension from that time until her death in 1844."

In 1812 James Magee and wife moved from the eastern part of Pennsylvania to Warren County, and settled four miles below the mouth of Tidioute Creek in Limestone, then Deerfield township. His family, consisting of eight sons and two daughters, were mostly grown at the time they settled here, and they all afterwards settled in Limestone and vicinity.
