Biog./Hist. Note
Dunmore’ War was a conflict between the Colony of Virginia and the Native
Americans of the Ohio Valley. Following increased raids
and attacks on frontiersmen in this region, the
Royal Governor of Virginia, Lord Dunmore, organized a large force of militia
and marched to Fort Pitt
arriving at the end of August 1774. Dunmore also
ordered Colonel Andrew Lewis, commander of the southwestern Virginia militia,
to raise an army in t
he south and meet Dunmore’s force along the Ohio
River. Lewis formed militia companies from Augusta, Bedford, Botetourt,
Culpeper, Dunmore,
Fincastle, and Kentucky counties. After Colonel
Lewis’ victory at the Battle of Point Pleasant, Dunmore successfully negotiated
a peace treaty with the
Delaware, Mingo, and Shawnee chiefs that prevented
them from settling or hunting south of the Ohio River.
Related Work Part of the index to the names
of Virginia citizens or soldiers from the counties of Augusta, Bedford,
Botetourt, Culpeper, and Fincastle

Biog./Hist. Note: On
March 13, 1884, the General Assembly passed
an act directing the adjutant general to compile a roster of all those
who served from Virginia in the
Confederate armed forces. The project did not
begin, however, until Congress’ passage of an act in 1903 providing for
the assembling of muster rolls for all the Confederate
states and Virginia’s subsequent creation of
the Office of the Secretary of Virginia Military Records in 1904. The work
of the Secretary of Virginia Military Records of
assembling muster rolls and other documents related
to Virginians in the Civil War was continued by the Department of Confederate
Military Records which was formed
by an act of the General Assemply on March 12,
1912. Major Robert W. Hunter served as Secretary of Virginia Military Records
from 1904 until 1910. Hunter was replaced
by Colonel Joseph V. Bidgood who served as Secretary
of Virginia Military Records and later Secretary of the Department of Confederate
Military Records. In 1918,
the General Assembly passed an act abolishing
the Department of Confederate Military Records and transferred the department’s
records to the Library of Virginia.
Note The Confederate Rosters are now part
of the Virginia Dept. of Military Affairs record group (RG# 46) housed
in the Archives at the Library of Virginia.
There is also a Samuel Teter, of which I have no link to our family? -- Found the link, below !!
Here is an excellent page with early information about: Samuel Teter of Pennsylvania and Ohio & George Teater of Virginia and Kentucky
(I could go on and on, and even find these on a map and make layers on ArcView 9.3, but this is a past time and I have some other things to do, enjoy. TomT)

Good to see the documents you've collected.
I am very fond of the Library of Virgina site. As I have it sorted out,
George Teter in the 1736 land grant on the
Robinson River is the husband of Maria
Margaretha Luttman, from Schwaigern, Wuerttemberg,
father of the Teters who married Henkels and
lived in Virginia, North Carolina, and West Virginia.
George Teter serving under William Campbell
in Fincastle County was the husband of Sarah
(Pearis?) who later lived in Garrard County,
Kentucky where he died in 1815. I believe
these are two unrelated Teter family lines, as our YDNA results so far
indicate.

Near the bottom of this page - THE
TEETER/DIETER FAMILY, is a very nice history written by
the Greer-Homberg Family,
with some Teter I've not heard of before. Like:
George Dieter (now spelling his last name "Teter" in English style) signed a 1739 petition for a road.....and a short lists of George's signature on legal papers.
That George Teter's signature matches the hand of the "George Dieter" of the ship Allen (above).
