Note: any responses directly to Mark should probably be sent to mallen@onramp.net -jr ============================== Wright's Lineage's of the various Continental Army Regiments used to be online but I can't find the link in my address book. If someone could spare a moment I'd appreciate having the current web address and/or the details on the 13th Virginia Regiment. Charles Botkin, private, 13th VA CL. Jan 1777 - Sept 1780 is my connection and I'd be delighted to share what I have on the 13th with anyone interested. Thanks in advance. Mark Allen
