I have a couple of ancestors that served in the American Revolution, and I'm trying to gather as much information as possible about them.  What are the best sources of information? ~Michael Messinger~ Posting their names, dates, states served etc. and what information you have would help us find information or direct your search areas. Michael I am a member of DAR and have DAR Patriotic indexes I can look to see what information is available on your ancestors if they served. Good Luck Judy [email protected]

Their names were: Johann Conrad Bloss (b. 1716 in Germany, d. 1776) PA, Pvt., served in the "Flying Camp (North)" in 1776 at Amboy. On muster roll August 6, 1776 I believe he may have been killed on Long Island in 1776. Henry (Heinrich) Bloss (b. 1754, d. 1834) PA, Carbon Co., 4th Battalion, 3rd company, 3rd class 1780, 1782 (don't think he saw active duty) Both were from Towamensing Township in PA.
