So does anybody know what civil service George Birdwell performed during the Revolution? Perhaps supplied arms or supplies to soldiers? Have any female descendants sought DAR membership on this line? Unless I'm mistaken, descent from anyone in the patriot index (whether soldier or civil servant) is acceptable for membership. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Betty Bray" <bybray@multipro.com> To: "Rose Birdwell" <birdwell@tri-county.main.nc.us> Sent: Wednesday, May 31, 2000 10:36 PM Subject: Re: OLD GEORGE DAR Patriot Index, Volume 1, Page 260: Birdwell; Burdwell George: b. ca. 1720-30, d. 11-24-1781 Va., m.
