Revolutionary War general Thomas Posey (1750-1818) lived his life against the backdrop of one of the most dramatic periods in American history. Posey, who played a minor role in the actual War for Independence, went on to participate in the development and foundation of several states in the transappalachian West. His experiences on the late 18th- and early 19th-century American frontier were varied and in a certain sense extraordinary; he served as Indian agent in Illinois Territory; as Lieutenant Governor of Kentucky, as U.S. Senator from Louisiana, and as Governor of Indiana during its transition from territorial status to statehood. His biographer speculates on the contrasting influences of Thomas's ne'er-do-well father, Captain John Posey, and the family's close friend, General George Washington. Posey's progress is then followed as he raises his own family in the newly formed nation. Of particular interest is an appendix containing a detailed analysis of evidence available to support popular 29th-century speculation that Thomas Posey was, in fact, George Washington's illicit son.

This volume is a compilation of some of the descendants of Giles Thomas and his wife Nancy Ann (Wheeler) Thomas, with short biographical sketches. A brief summary of the ancestry of Giles and Nancy is given in an addendum. Giles Thomas, the son of David and Hannah (Greene) Thomas, was born 30 November 1763 in that part of Baltimore County, MD, that later became Harford Co. (Harford Co was cut off from Baltimore Co some years after Giles Thomas's birth.) Giles Thomas died 21 Mar 1842. He married 4 June 1786 Nancy Ann Wheeler (born 10 May 1762, died 12 Jun 1834), daughter of Benjamin and Mary (Neale) Wheeler. Giles entered the army when he was only 16 years of age and served as a private in the Maryland troops until the close of the Revolutionary War. He served under Gen Nathaniel Greene in his campaign in the Carolinas. As compensation for service in the War, he received a land warrant, No. 1747, lying west of Fort Cumberland in Washington Co, MD. His name also appears in the pay record in the Maryland Land office. He resided at Port Tobacco, MD, during his active years but moved, sometime between 1796 and 1801, to Montgomery Co, VA, where he bought a farm and settled on Catawba Creek. He and his wife are buried in Westview Cemetery in Blacksburg, VA.
