In his youth, John Floyd was an intense patriot though a mere lad. He displayed patriotic slogans and emblems on his hat and finally ran away from home and joined the patriots, at the age of 14. The elder Floyd was a prominent officer in the Revolutionary struggle.
In 1800, Charles Floyd and wife and their son John with his family, moved to Camden County, and granted large tracts of land where in due time they had large plantations and built fine colonial type homes. The elder Floyd's home was called "Bellevue" and the son's was known as "Fairfield", both situated on or near Crooked River. The Floyd homes were large, well-built edifices that stood until recent years.
Gen. Floyd had a long and distinguished military career. He was commissioned Captain of the 31st militia, Camden County, May 2, 1804. Two years later, he was commissioned Brigadier-General, lst Brigade, 1st Division, Georgia Militia, June 26, 1806. He was holding this rank when the War of 1812 came on. He commanded a force of 600 men at Point Peter five miles from St. Marys, but was later transferred to Camp Hope near Fort Hawkins (now Macon) and he commanded troops in the construction of a line of forts and bIockhouses. from the Oemulgee River to the Alabama River. He then commanded a large force of militia and friendly Indians in an expedition across the Chattahoochee into Indian territory, the purpose being to subdue the hostile Indians then under British influence. The well-known battles of Autossee and Challibee were fought by his command, and he was wounded in one of them. For his fine work in suppressing the Indians he was voted the thanks of the legislature and promoted to Major-General of the lst Division, and was commissioned Nov. 24, 1815. He held this rank until his death, June 24, 1824.
Gen. Floyd was Representative from Camden County 1803-1804 and again in 1822. He was State Senator 1805-06, and 1830. He served as a Congressman from Georgia in 1826. He served as a Justice of the Inferior Court of his county for several years. He suffered imprisonment in the latter part of the Revolution, and the estate property was all lost through devestations; but in the years that followed after moving to Georgia, he accumulated a large estate. He was skillful In the-use of tools and for sometime built sail-boats for sale. He used in his boat-building a number of skilled slaves supervised by competent overseers. He was also a skilled surveyor and helped to run the Georgia-Florida line.
