Elizabeth, Thanks so very much for the help. I found in a book that Robert Russell's father George Russell received a Virginia State Revolutionary War Pension. But that is all it said. Would you happen to know where I can find the dates and info regarding the Pension. George d. before Nov. 26, 1782, His will was proven in Accomack Co. George's wife was Sarah Bonwell. TIA.
