George Kornegay1
Male, #65092, (circa 1701 - 1 Nov 1773)
| Birth* | circa 1701 | He was born circa 1701.1 |
| Birth of Son | say 1740 | His son Hardy Dean was born say 1740. |
| Death* | 1 Nov 1773 | He died at Rowan Co., North Carolina, on 1 Nov 1773.1 |
| Biography* | 17 Feb 2008 | At an early age, George and his family were part of a company of German Palatines who immigrated to America with Baron deGraffenreid 1709-1710. In Craven County, 22 September 1711, The Tuscarorra Indians attacked and killed about 120 settlers - men, women and children. The only survivor of the Kornegay family was son, George, who was only ten years old. In August 1713, Jacob Miller (or Muller) took into his care two orphans and promised to teach them to read and write and take care of them until 21 years of age and to have them taught a carpenters trade. Names: George Kornegay and George Koonce.
George married Mary Fisher in 1726. They had ten children in the following order: Daniel, Elijah, John, Jacob, William, George, Mary, David, Abraham, and Joseph.
George served in the French and Indian War as a foot soldier in the Duplin, North Carolina, Militia, volunteering in 1754.
Judge H George Kornegay death was at Red Hill Plantation Duplin County North Carolina.2 |
| Research note | 12 Jun 2017 | From David Kenagy:
My Y-DNA matches two descendants of Kornegay-39 and three descendants of Dean-4227. Because Kornegay and Kenagy (my name) are similar, and both came from the Palatinate, that match is not surprising. But "Dean"?
Descendants of Dean-4227 say he is not the biologic son of his mother's husband (father unknown). At the time of Dean's birth, all the relatives of Kornegay-39 were dead (Native American attack). Kornegay lived in a county near Dean's earliest descendants, and Kornegay was (at that time)the only source of this Y-DNA in North America.3 |
| Research note* | 15 Feb 2020 | When George Kornegay (by DNA) was born in 1701 in Rheinland-Pfalz, Germany, his father, John, was 30 and his mother, Susannah, was 22. His family fled Platz, Germany (near Swiss border) for England in 1708, and then left for North Carolina in 1710, eventually settling on land near the Trent and Neuse Rivers--called Neuse Bern. His entire family but him, is killed by Tuscarora Indians in 1711. He was raised by Jacob Miller, clerk of the county. About 1725, when George was 21, Miller began helping him petition England for restitution of his Palatine family's lost land grant, which did not succeed until 1749. George had one son with 15 year old Frances Dean in 1740. George was awarded land near Cape Fear in Duplin County in 1749, so he then left the New Bern area with his wife and family, and to settle his newly titled 250 acres. He had one son with 15 year old, Frances Dean, in 1740. However, he was likely married to Mary Elizabeth Fisher, with whom he had many children. Mary died in 1759, and he then married Susannah in 1766 in Duplin, North Carolina. He died on November 1, 1773, in Duplin, North Carolina, at the age of 72, with an estate of over 2000 acres. He was likely buried in the Old Kornegay Family Cemetery.4 |
