George Stump, a son of Hans Michael and Maria Catherine (Neff) Stump, was born in what is now Hardy County WV April 8, 1745 and died there in 1829. His will is dated April 8, 1805. He married Elizabeth (Wilson) Massey in Hardy County VA August 16, 1768. The license states "...surety for the Widow Massey is father H.D. Wilson." Elizabeth, a daughter of Henry D. and Martha Wilson, was born April 30, 1749 and died in Hardy County VA (WV) October 23, 1829. George was born about the time that George Washington and George Fairfax made their surveying tour of the South Branch of the Potomac and camped at the Stump platation.It has been suggested that he was named for one or both of these notables. He was at one time Lieutenant-Commander of the Hardy County militia and served the colonies during the Revolution and attained the rank of Major. George and his mother were executors of Michael I's estate, under a bond of five thousand pounds, an enormous sum for the times. A traditional family story states that George and George Washington squirrel hunted together about 1779, with Michael III carrying the squirrels.
