Fleetwood: I just finished copying all three of the James who are accepted as REV WAR soldiers, from Patrick Wardell's: Virginia & W. VA. Rev. War Records, Vol 2. Then I "lost" it, as my computer has been doing so often lately. I will attempt to copy it again tomorrow night, but have to quit tonight. The James who was s/o James Sr. moved 12 years after the RW to Henry Co, Va where he died 2/8/1803. He married Rhoda Nunnelee. I'll try again tomorrow. The James Hunt, s/o Charles, is the one who married Christiana and moved to Rutherford Co, TN 1839. (as you said) (Now---who is the Charles in SC?) Excedrin headache, again!
