Around 1808 Jonathan McGee and his family were in Mississippi and moved to Louisiana, settling on the Pearl River. He and part of his family fought in the Battle of New Orleans. Holden McGee married Sarah Mary Howell in 1822 and they became the parents of nine children: George Washington (m. Frances Jane Townsend); John; Jonathan (m. Ophelia C. Frazier); Rebecca (m. Henry J.

The McGee family came to Texas in 1839, settling first in Jasper County where Holden McGee received a 3rd Class Land Grant in Devember1839. Sometime later he moved into San Augustine County living near the Angelina River Bottom. McGee Bend Dam (now Sam Rayburn Reservoir) was named after him since the Dam was built on land owned by Holden McGee.
