This volume is a compilation of some of the descendants of Giles Thomas and his wife Nancy Ann (Wheeler) Thomas, with short biographical sketches. A brief summary of the ancestry of Giles and Nancy is given in an addendum. Giles Thomas, the son of David and Hannah (Greene) Thomas, was born 30 November 1763 in that part of Baltimore County, MD, that later became Harford Co. (Harford Co was cut off from Baltimore Co some years after Giles Thomas's birth.) Giles Thomas died 21 Mar 1842. He married 4 June 1786 Nancy Ann Wheeler (born 10 May 1762, died 12 Jun 1834), daughter of Benjamin and Mary (Neale) Wheeler. Giles entered the army when he was only 16 years of age and served as a private in the Maryland troops until the close of the Revolutionary War. He served under Gen Nathaniel Greene in his campaign in the Carolinas. As compensation for service in the War, he received a land warrant, No. 1747, lying west of Fort Cumberland in Washington Co, MD. His name also appears in the pay record in the Maryland Land office. He resided at Port Tobacco, MD, during his active years but moved, sometime between 1796 and 1801, to Montgomery Co, VA, where he bought a farm and settled on Catawba Creek. He and his wife are buried in Westview Cemetery in Blacksburg, VA.
