BlankHere is some material that came as a result of a look-up that was done for us for Revolutionary soldiers buried in Marion and Schley counties. We'll be adding this to our Revolutionary soldiers in the respective county archives. I'd like to add as much add'l material to these files as we can. If you have add'l data on any of these gentlemen, we'd love to incorporate that with this material. One add'l soldier probably buried in Schley or Marion would be Charles Womack Sr., burial unknown, but supposed in Marion ot Schley. His pension application can be viewed in the Schley Military Archives. Harris >From # 98 Marion County 1.
