Their son, General Alexander McGillivray, was born here, and in 1790 he went from this plantation with Colonel Marinus Willett to New York City to visit President George Washington. During the American Revolution, LeClerc Milfort, the Frenchman, was married here to Alexander McGillivray's sister. Lieut. John Heth, U. S.
