I recently saw the book "The Genealogy of Peiter Heyl" c.1938 by Elizabeth Hoyle Rucker.
In the book she wrote :
"ELIZABETH HOYL, b. 1737, m. 1759, GEORGE HOVIS, Sr., pioneer of the
Hovis family. Their farm was near the old Peiter Heyl place, and was
of considerable extent, reaching a good distance up both river and creek.
George Hovis conveyed a part of this large farm to his son, Frederick Hovis,
who lived there many years, until he sold it and moved to Lincoln County,
Tennessee.
Her children:
Frederick Hovis b 1760.
George Hovis Jr b 1762.
Margaret Hovis b Aug. 18, 1763.
Susannah Hovis b 1766.
John Hovis b 1768.
Andrew Hovis b 1770.
Peter Hovis b 1772.
Michael Hovis b 1774.
Sarah Hovis b 1776"

Does anyone know whether or not this GEORGE HOVIS fought in the Revolutionary War ??
