Which Yager/Jager/Yeagers would have been the right age to be in the Revolutionary War?

Durman Sent: Thursday, July 01, 2010 3:56 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [GERMANNA] WILHITE/WILHOIT/etc., etc. Hello Rock, Here are a few connections: Virinda Margaret WEAVER married Jonas RACER/RASOR; Margaret's grandmother was Mary "Polly" WILHITE. Mary's g-grandfather was Johann Michael WILLHEIT, Jr., a 2nd Colony emigrant. Ann WEAVER married Paschal RACER/RASOR; Ann was sister of Margaret above, so had the same WILHITE/WILLHEIT ancestry as Ann. Jonas and Paschal were brothers and if you descend from them, you also have a WILHITE/WILHOIT/WILLHEIT ancestor. I have many, many RACER/RASOR individuals married to other 1st and 2nd Colony emigrants, but it will take some time to dig out the data.
