John Fee fought in the Revolutionary War and two members
Members of the Daughters of the American Revolution researched
these men so we have the benefit of their research.
The source for most of the following is A History of the Fee
Family by Colonel Ralph Pearson and an old letter which is missing the
author's name.
John Fee's son, Colonel John Fee, was born in Ireland around
1759 and came to America as a small boy. He married Patience Kelly
who was from Maryland about 1779 and had five children with her.
Patience Kelly died before 1790. He then married Jane Jackson, a
daughter of George Jackson on June 16, 1791. She had two sons--
John Fee (the third John Fee) and George Jackson Fee.
Colonel John Fee lived on the Juniata river, opposite the Raystown
branch, as early as 1774. He farmed land along the north side of the
Juniata river, from Mill Creek to the Raystown branch, and some
land in an area known as the Lickridges. He fought for a brief
time in the Revolutionary War at the age of eighteen and was an active
member of Captain Blair's expedition against the Tories. He also was
in "The Sessions," April 1786. He was generally known as "the
Colonel" the source of his title is from a local militia.
In 1790 he was listed as a subscriber in Huntingdon for the Presbyterian
Church.
He kept a "public house" (hotel) on the river and later had hotels at
Warm Springs, Stone Creek in Huntingdon County. One of these was a red
hotel located on an old main road from Philadelphia to Pittsburgh. After
the Revolution, there was a large volume of freight from the steel
mills in Pittsburgh and all of the freight was hauled by horse
drawn wagons on a road through Huntingdon county. Colonel Fee's
last occupation was that of a farmer in an area in the eastern part of
Henderson township in an area known as the Lickridges-- the John Lowe
farm.
An 1820 list of citizens of Henderson Township shows John Fee
owned 300 acres at Warm Springs where he had a tavern.
Colonel John Fee applied for a pension late in life and gave
the following account of his Revolutionary War experiences:
"The petition of Colonel John Fee, of Huntingdon Co.,
respectfully sheweth:"
"That your petitioner entered into the service of his country
in January 1777, marched to Philadelphia, enrolled in Capt. Thomas
Cluggage's company, and marched from thence in the regiment
commanded by Colonel John Piper, through Jersey to a place called
Harkin Ridge, where they were received by Lord Sterling with a
party of the British who fortified themselves in Quibbletown.
Captain W. McDonald and Captain Miller were ordered to select 20
men and attack them and bring off the cattle which they had
collected. That your petitioner, with others was selected by
Captain McDonald, who attacked the British about break of day, and
succeeded finally, in taking and bringing off about 400 head of
cattle, 27 horses and a number of sheep, which they had carried off
to our army at Princeton. That before they left Harkin Ridge,
their tour about to expire, and no other troops arriving to take
their place, a call was made to know who would agree to serve
longer. That your petitioner, with several more of Cluggage's
Company, agreed to stay till the arrival of other troops, and did
remain as long as it was thought necessary and was finally
discharged in Philadelphia and marched home the last of March or
the first of April. Following have spent fully three months in
said extended tour."
"That soon after, in the course of the same spring, a large
party of Tories, to the number of about 90, started off to join the
Indians at Kittening, with the intention of bringing them in to
murder the inhabitants on the frontier. That as soon as the alarm,
of this attempt was raised, a party of militia to the number of
about 150 was gathered together by Colonel Buchanon, of Lewistown,
Colonel W. Perry of Stoney Creek and Colonel Jack of Frankstown,
and marched across the Alleghenies mountains and halted at the
waters of the Susquehanna, when they sent out spies, 5 of whom
where shot by the Indians. That your petitioner was one of said
party during the whole of said campaign, and returned with the
Company to Huntingdon, having spent 2 and 3 weeks in said tour, and
suffered much and endured many privations, their provisions having
run out on the way. That your petitioner was called on and turned
out at every alarm during the eventful period, the particulars of
which he cannot now call to mind. That he turned out and marched
as a scout down Kisacogwillis at the time of the massacre of Mr.
Eaton-- and in another up the Raystown branch, when Mr. Elder was
taken and John Plummer killed, whom he assisted to bury. And in
another with Captain John Shaver to Hair's Valley where they
discovered and took several stands of arms secreted by the Tories."
"And in another up the Little Juniata, after the murder of
Crum. An in another up the Narrows after the massacre of Donnelly-
- and in another to the foot of the Allegheny where it was reported
a party of Indians were lurking-- that your petitioner's father and
mother were forted for about five years of that period at
Carmichael's Fort at the mouth of the Auglevic and Prigmore's Fort,
at Mill Creek. That he feels perfect safety in stating that he was
in actual service 4 months and much longer: that he has no
knowledge of any of his companions, in arms, who are now living,
except John Patton esq., who was in the Regiment with him, in the
tour to the Jerseys in 1777. That your petitioner is now in the
77th year of his age, is poor and in need of the assistance of his
country. He therefore prays your honorable bodies to grant him
such remuneration for his service, as you in your wisdom may think
right." March 10, 1836 by John Fee.
John Fee is buried beside his father at Mill Creek cemetery, with this
inscription on his tombstone:
Col. John Fee
Died Aug 22, 1849
age 87
The tombstone was erected by John Fee's grandson, captain John D. Fee
many years after Col. Fee's death, so the year is incorrect and should
be 1845.
