Biography

George Byrd Prewitt was born in 1721. He was the son of Andrew Prewitt and Agnes Goochland. He passed away in 1785.[1]

George Prewett United States Revolutionary War Rolls, 1775-1783:

Name: George Prewett • Event Type: Military Service Event Date: 17 Jul 1777 • Event Place: Virginia, United States • Event Place (Original): Virginia, United States [2]

Note: George Prewitt is said to have been a Quaker. However, records for Henrico Monthly Meeting are virtually unreadable and therefore impossible to verify. I was unable to find any other Quaker Meeting for the area during that time period leading to the conclusion that Henrico most likely was the only meeting.
