It was recently determined that Priscilla was the daughter of Preston Goforth of Anson Co. NC. So they were probably married there in 1770. Which makes his war record on the frontier suspect . It was a long way from NC to Rockbridge Co VA and on to Washington's forts on the frontier. George was in NC 1770 and 1773 and was in Greene Co. 1777 making rifles. Enigmatic!?
