Hilary, Would greatly appreciate those copies. Will help when I apply for SAR through him. As you will note I am SAR. It is through Bethel Bromley out of CT. If I can prove back to Pleasant Cocke it will make 3 men who served. The other one was Ransom Alphin/ Allphin. He was unable to get a pension for his service as he could not come up with the proper papers. Yet there is a published paper of his service and his tribulations. All 3 were on my mothers side of the family. I tried to send you an attachment concerning the sale of the Court House in Richmond, VA. Apparently cannot send an attachment with this email. Interesting article.
