R'chard Simp3on and Miss Kinch­ elo, living near Alexandria, Virginia,' and resided at his county seat, the Red House, in Caswell county, North Carolina, -until his removal to Kentucky in1779. a In 1760 fCapt. Hart commanded company for the suppression of an insurrection which threatened the overthrow of the government, and for his bravery, while»in the discharge of the arduous and haz­ ard uous undertaking, was handsomely complimented by the officers of the government. In 17#5 he was instrumental— in forming a company, consisting of himself, two brothers Thomas Hart and David Hart — with three other gentlemen, for the purchase of Transylvania from the Indians, which purchase was secured to them by an act of the General Assem­ bly of Virginia in1778. Capt. Hart continued to reside near Boonesboro, Kentucky, where his family had been protected from the Indians, until1782, when he was killed by them, riding out near the fort. Capt. Hart was not scalped, as erroneously stated in the History of Kentucky, his children having affirmed the contrary, nor did his mur­ derers escape.
