Good idea! I did the same thing and found some interesting family history I had known nothing about. John Eager Howard commanded a unit that was with Daniel Morgan at Cowpens but I had no idea that he may be a relative. I'm still not sure but it has made for some interesting reading. John Eager Howard whose mother was Ruth Eager and father was Cornelius Howard eventually became governor of Maryland, among other things. ruth Eager's father was John Eager and her mother was Jermima (Murray) Eager. John Eager was son of George Eager and Jermima's parents were Thomas Murray and Jermima Morgan. They were early colonist of Maryland and George Eager was one of the founders of Baltimore. My Rev. War ancestor fought at the Battle of Point Pleasant under Captain John Murray, who was killed in the battle. This all led to lots of Morgan, Murray, Eager, Lewis, and other family connections which have lead me to do lots of reading about how Berkeley Co., W. Va came about and who helped settle it. I still haven't found that elusive connection for the relationship between robert John Eager (my ancestor) and the rest of the folks--but I'm still looking and enjoying my search. I know it's there someplace!

George, still enjoy reading all you have posted about the Rev. War. I need to ask another question, yesterday or today you posted and in your email it was about getting a Rev. War pension and that a person needed to have served 9 months or more to be eligible to receive one. I have misplaced this email and can't remember what was said. The reason I am asking I am researching my 4th great grandfather Abraham Fuller for a possible SAR supplement. I have found some info that he served in Caswell Co. NC with Capt. Turner's Company and the info I have is he served from March 15 to July 30, 1779. I find no evidence that he applied for a pension, so if you had to serve 9 months or more this is probably the reason I haven't found a request for a pension for Abraham. Could you verify the length of service requirement for a pension for me?

Sorry Charles, There seems to be such a large difference of opinion regarding this issue that I would yield to the superior knowledge of the DAR and the SAR, both of whom have great websites which might be helpful. I feel certain that you will get a reply from some of these folks regarding your question.
