While doing genealogy research on my Jett family tree, I discovered my gggg-
grandfather, Jessee Jett (1776-1860 who m. Nancy Anne Chandler1778-1850 
in 1804) was in Curtis Waller's 16th Regiment Virginia Militia which I have been 
told may have enrolled men from Spotsylvania, Stafford and Caroline 
Counties.  My question is:  Does any know when this regiment was formed and 
what their time frame for participation in the War of 1812 was?  I  have his 
childrens information and it would be nice to have his war information units' 
info.  I do know he was a Private.  Still trying to locate his burial place as I am 
trying to fill in an application to join the United Daughters for the Society for 
the War of 1812.  History is a passion of mine and that is what this group of 
ladies promotes.  Would very much appreciate any info on the formation and 
timeframe of Curtis Waller's 16th Virginia Militia during the War of 1812 from 
the Spotsylvanina, Stafford & Caroline Counties area, if anyone has any.  
Thanks.
