How can I learn more about my revolutionary war ancestor?

Searching for Patriots

The first and best source to review for information on your patriot ancestor is the DAR Patriot Index. This Index contains data for men and women who provided service to the patriots' cause between 1774 and 1783. An alphabetical listing of individuals documented by the DAR lists birth and death data for the principal parties as well as information on spouse, rank, area of service, the state for which the patriots served or where they lived, and pension.
