Sandy thank you for the website you posted. I read about the battles in VA. I have three relatives in the Battle of Kings Mt. They were the Kilgore's. It was interesting learning where the Battle of King's Mt. fit in.

I need help in confirming that HENRY WINBORN (WINBORNE) and JOHN WINBORNE (WINBORN). I believe both were from North Carolina. Thank you in advance for your efforts.

There is a site containing State books on all members of the Rev War units. If they didnt get a pension or landgrant they maybe found here. The site is: .http://www.evendon.net/PGHLookups/MilitaryM.htm

Im so glad U can prove it sweetie. Is that all you needed to get into the DAR. Im so glad that I was able to help you out

Thanks Patsy. Margaret was married to a Dsyart, prior to marrying Thomas, so this reference to Margaret H. Dysart is accurate. I have transcripts of family bible records, so I think I'm good as far as proving lineage. I appreciate your looking this up.

Tonia
There is something else I just discover on your Patriot. This is off the membership area of the DAR. Right above your Patriot Name is a NOTE in BIG RED LETTERS
Notice:
FUTURE APPLICANTS MUST PROVE LINEAGE OF CHILD.
Im sure there are some ladies who are registers can explain what this means too allright.

Would one of the DAR members be willing to do a lookup for me? I've almost completed my application worksheet, but I'm still looking for proof for one piece of data. My patriot is Thomas Hemphill, who served in NC, and was married to Mary Ann Mackie. The line I'm applying through is his son, Thomas McEntire Hemphill and his second wife, Margaret. I'm looking for proof that Margaret's maiden name was also Hemphill (I have only anecdotal evidence). I sent a request to National a month ago, but haven't heard back.

Thanks!

Have you tried Footnote.com. This website site gets its documents from the National Archives.

Researching info for John BONNELL [1757(?) - 1845] , Rev War Soldier,
died in Erie Co, PA.

I have a Comparison Spreadsheet on 5 John Bonnell's who were Rev Soldiers at
http://www.kbsb.com/bonnelltree/john-compare.htm

My line is with John's son George and his son Thomas,
but am after sources for PROOF... (as always!)
