Note:   Jesse Saunders, "traveled whileyoung to Granville County,North Carolina,and married Ann, daughter of Colonel Yancey of that county; had many childred;moved to Georgia, near Augusta, then to the new purchase inthat state where he died..He was an excellent partisan officer,harassing theBritishontheir way to Yorktown. He has several skirmishes withthe enemy, some of them sharp. Jesse was in the battle with the Regulators, as it was called many years before the Revolution and had a horse shot out from under him, ran several hair-breadth escapes after the battle, while taking up the straggling Regulators; was waylaid and shot, yet, out of them all, Providence delivered him. He appeared never to regard risking his person or his life in performing duties of any kind." (Family memoir)
 He had several children, William,Yancey, James (and perhaps Lewis),Betsy,Jese and others I cannot think of (Family Memoir)
