Name: Harold Wentworth Fitzhugh State: Georgia Religious Beliefs: Presbyterian Ethnic Background: Scotch-Irish Biography: Wentworth Fitzhugh was born on July 4, 1756, to Robert and Moira Fitzhugh. His father fought in several conflicts with the Creek and Seminole Indians, and young Wentworth soon learned the ways of war. When the War of Independence began, he quickly enlisted and served under Nathaniel Greene, fighting at Gilford Courthouse and other engagements, before taking part in the Battle of Yorktown as a Major. After the War, he retired from the Army (as a Colonel) and went back to Georgia. With the death of his father, took over the operations of the family plantation, which he has made quite profitable by expanding into distilling, rope-making, and other enterprises besides simple cotton or tobacco cultivation. He was a supporter of the new Constitution, although only after assurances were made by James Madison and others regarding the addition of a Bill of Rights. With the ratification of the new federal Constitution, Wentworth Fitzhugh was elected as a US Representative by the people of Georgia's newly minted 2nd COngressional District. |
