“The record of the U. S. War Department Adjutant General’s Office show that James Agee served in the Revolutionary War as a soldier of the Virginia Infantry. His name appears only in a book containing a list of Virginia soldiers, which shows that ￡36 was paid by the State of Virginia, Dec. 10, 1783, on account of his service.
“He was born in 1724; married to Miss Elizabeth Ford in 1747, and died in 1821. His wife was born in 1729 and died in 1821. Jame Agee lived and died in Buckingham County, Va.” [S065]
“...He was a man of fine character and stalwart physique and very successful in business.” His father deeded “his beloved son, James” 400 acres in 1761 (Albemarle County Deed Book, p. 14); he received letters patent for 300 acres (SB33-670) and 400 acres (SB38-697), both in Buckingham County [S151].
The Rev. James W. Agee, in the AGEE RECORD, stated this husband and wife lived together 74 years. Their home was a meeting place for preaching services for many years. Bishop Asbury preached there and mentioned brother Agee in his diary.
