HONORING THE SERVICE AND THE MEMORY OF REVOLUTIONARY WAR SOLDIER PRIVATE MARTIN MANEY
HON. HEATH SHULER
of North Carolina
in the house of representatives
Wednesday, May 21, 2008
Mr. SHULER. Madam Speaker, I rise today to honor the service and the
memory of Revolutionary War Soldier Private Martin Maney of Buncombe
County, North Carolina.
Each year on Memorial Day, our Nation honors the service and
sacrifice of all veterans. On Saturday, May 17, 2008, in the Western
North Carolina town of Barnardsville, the memory of Private Martin
Maney, a Revolutionary War Soldier, was honored by the dedication of an
official Veterans Administration headstone. The unveiling ceremony was
conducted by the Edward Buncombe Chapter of the National Society of the
Daughters of the American Revolution, the Blue Ridge Chapter of the
North Carolina Society of the Sons of the American Revolution and the
Button Gwinnett Chapter of the Georgia Society of the Sons of the
American Revolution.
Private Martin Maney was a true American patriot and a proud North
Carolinian. He served under Captain James Knox in the Eighth Virginia
Regiment of Foot. He fought in the Battles of White Plains, New York,
Germantown, Pennsylvania, and Monmouth, New Jersey prior to being
discharged at Valley Forge. Following his discharge, he enlisted with
the North Carolina Militia where he provided personal security for
North Carolina Generals who were receiving death threats from the
Tories. Following his service, Private Martin Maney received the 294th
Land Grant in North Carolina. He used that land to create a farm, where
today the Maney cemetery exists and Private Maney has been laid to
rest.
It is with great respect that I commend and remember this brave
soldier who joined hands with countless other patriots to achieve
American independence. I hope that today's generation of young men and
women will follow the shining example of patriotism and dedication to
freedom modeled by Private Martin Maney and other Revolutionary War
heroes.

These are names transcribed from an article by Richard Slatten in "Some importations registered in the Spotsylvania County minute book," Magazine of Virginia Genealogy, vol. 26, n. 1, p. 62, Feb. 1988.
The listed importees were Irish servants imported by Fielding Lewis, who was George Washington's brother-in-law among other things. They arrived on the brig Fanny in October of 1769. The importations were recorded 10 years after the event (21 Oct. 1779) in the Spotsylvania County Minute Book, 1774-1782, p. 125. Slatten notes also that Capt. Richard Taylor was the master of the brig. Editorial notations such as [] are Slatten's.
