George Graham
Birth: 1758, USA
Death: Mar. 29, 1826
Charlotte
Mecklenburg County
North Carolina, USA

Revolutionary War North Carolina Militia Major General. He served throughout the Revolutionary War. He was among the Mecklenburg Patriots, who, along with those from Rowan County, were some of the War's most hostile forces. In 1780, he was among the 12 (or 14) Patriots who fought back a force of 400 British soldiers at McIntyre's Farm. The incident became known as the "Battle of The Hornets." Charlotte then took the nickname "The Hornet’s Nest," a name it still uses to this day. Graham achieved the rank of Major General. (bio by: Evening Blues)
