He received his pension($40 per annum) from age 81, until he died at age 91. John was aveteran of the revolutionary war having served in the "Flying Camp" underCapt. Andrew Hines. He also served under General Anthony Wayne againstthe Indians in 1794-95.

John (George) Longstreth is referred to as George Longstreth in the 1916supplement to The Longstreth Family Records by Philip W. Longstreth(great grandson of John Longstreth and Margaret Ann George). It appearsthat he may have used one name for official purposes, and the other forclose or family relationships. It is not known by this compiler whetherhis birth name was John George Longstreth, George John Longstreth, or if"George" was not even part of his birth name.
