- This is quite likely the father of this Jonathan.
In the Revolutionary War Pension application of JOHN McENTIRE, Jr. just cited under (b) above, which is in the National Archives’ File No. S38.189, there is another invaluable clue. It is in an affidavit he had caused to be drawn up to prove he was the same individual to whom the original cert. was issued when he moved from Pendleton, South Carolina, to Habersham, Georgia, in 1828, when he was almost 70, and a feeble old man. A JAMES under age 25, hence probably not his son, and a JOSEPH over 45 were there on the census of 1820. By 1830 census another JAMES, age 40 to 50, with, one daughter over 20 and 7 children under, appears. The other had none 10 years before. So the latter may well be John’s son. JOHN is also there, age between 70 and 80.
JOSEPH, too. JONATHAN, 30 to 40, and PHILIP, 60 to 70 are new and probably came west with JOHN. This Philip was born therefore, between 1760 and 1770, apparently a little later than Henry; and the evidence indicates they are brothers. It is clear Philip, 60-70, cannot be a son of John, 70-80, nor of JOHN, Sr. whose property settlement including even his grandchildren, did not name him. He makes this affidavit for JOHN, Jr. in 1828, however, saying he “knows” that JOHN in Habersham is the same person as the person who received the checks in Pendleton, South Carolina. And he could not “know” in a legal sense unless he was in the same place in South Carolina when received. He does not say what relation, if any, he is. But JOHN, Jr. , b. 1761, is probably a cousin.

Then his father was also a John McIntire b. 1732 in Rutherford Co. North Carolina and died on the 8th October 1875. His wife was Rachel Beason.
I came across a RootsWeb family post by Mary Kay Armstrong on 10/28/205 on Rev. War John, and it says that he was buried at the Hopewell Presbyterian Church in Huntersville, NC. This church was founded in 1759 and is in Mecklenberg Co., which as you know from a lot of property purchases & sales by the McIntires, was a real hub for the family.
(Is not listed in this cemetery in Find A Grave!)
One list of his children:
Joseph McIntire 1779–
James McIntire 1780–
Phillip McIntire 1782–1849

Hello,
I am looking for any additional information on my 5th great grandfather John McEntire b abt 1759 probably in North Carolina.
The specific spelling of his last name may be any of the variants McIntyre, McIntire, Macantire, Makentire.
He served in the 3rd Georgia Regiment of the Revolutionary War which formed in North Carolina.
After his unit was dissolved in Charleston, he settled in the Pendleton district from 1790-1820 and had several children.
His know daughters are
Ellender (Nelly) b abt 1804
Elizabeth b abt 1806
Mary b abt 1795
His male children maybe (looking for any verification)
Felix b abt 1794
Phillip b abt 1795
He left the Pendleton district for Clarksville, Habersham County, Georgia around 1820.
I have found all of his census records from 1790 to 1810 and several land records along 12 mile river. In addition, I have his Revolutionary War pension file.
I will be glad to share information with anyone who it will assist.
I am looking for any additional family information such as children's names and marriages and such.
Thanks in advance,
Dan McIntire
