     2.  John2 McGinnis (Thomas1) was born 1748.  He married Elizabeth Greene, daughter of Nathaniel Greene. 

 

Notes for John McGinnis:

John McGinnis moved to Harrods Station the spring of 1777 with his family.  Five brothers,

David, Edward, William, and Thomas T, Robert T,.

 

John McGinnis Enlisted in the Continental Army March 3 1779,

Served in Col Armands Legionary Corps VA. At the battle of Yorktown PA, Discharged, in the fall 1781.

After His enlistment John settled in mercer county Kentucky a few miles East of Harrods station.

 

The 1781 Yorktown Campaign, in Virginia,

 Was the final major military episode of the American Revolution. The campaign involved a remarkable degree of cooperation and coordination between French and American forces over a vast region of North America and the West Indies: a French army in Rhode Island under the comte de Rochambeau, an American army outside New York City under Gen. George Washington, an assortment of American regulars and militia in Virginia under the marquis de Lafayette, a small French naval squadron at Newport under the comte de Barras, and a formidable French fleet in the West Indies under the comte de Grasse.

The objective of the French-American allies was to trap Charles Cornwallis, the British commander in the south, who had established himself at Yorktown on the Virginia peninsula after having failed to destroy the American army of Gen. Nathaniel Greene in the Carolinas. The various contingents all converged on Chesapeake Bay at virtually the same time. Siege operations against Yorktown opened on Oct. 6, 1781, as French and American artillery began a nearly incessant bombardment of Cornwallis's positions. Sir Henry Clinton in New York City hastened a naval expedition to the relief of the Yorktown garrison, but it was beaten back by de Grasse. On October 17, Cornwallis asked for an armistice and proposed terms unacceptable to General Washington. With no hope remaining, Cornwallis surrendered his nearly 8,000-man force to the 17,000-man Franco-American army on Oct. 19. For all practical purposes, the American War of Independence was over.
