General Notes: Husband - John Minteer


The head of the Minteer family in Pennsylvania was John Minteer, who obtained a grant of land on a Virginia warrant calling for four hundred acres near Youghiogheny and Jacob's Creek in Upper Tyrone Township near Mt. Pleasant and Warrior's Mark [later Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania?]. One of the earliest erected forts of the kind described by Veech was known as the Minter (or Minteer) Fort and was erected on his farm by John Minteer, Stevenson and Crawford, and it is stated in "The Frontier Forts of Western Pennsylvania" that Mr. Minteer made improvements in 1769.
