Thanks for you excellent and informative post; and thanks to your ancestors for the sacrifices they made to help found this great country.

Indeed, those pension applications have been an invaluable source of information; and a good place to start looking for a good battle map of Guilford Courthouse might be be here if you ever get up north.

Thanks for the link, that may prove very useful.

Here’s as complete of an online repository of Revolutionary War pension applications as I am aware, for those who fought in the southern campaigns:

For those searching who do not find their ancestor, they are very eager to add to their database. If you have proved your ancestor’s participation and have a transcribed pension application, they want to include it and will do so, even if it appears elsewhere. Their goal is to have every one of them in one place.
