HITE

The Hite ancestors came from Germany to America. Strausburg records report the family as German Pioneers in Pennsylvania. They were listed on the "Major Boat" or "Pink Lady" arriving in America September 29, 1733. We also find Andrew Hite’s grandparents listed and it is assumed his Grandfather was Peter Hite.
Andrew Hite was born February 24, 1758 in Pennsylvania. The Hite Family then settled in Virginia, Rockingham County, Shanandoah Valley. Records of the colonies of William Penn show the Hite family then settled in Fairfield, Ohio.
Records also show that Andrew Hite served in a Company under the command of Michael Reader during the Revolution. He was a captain of the militia. He also served in Durnmores Army before the Revolution.
Andrew and Anna Hite had 10 children.
