    3. Hello Kathy, I am interested in obtaining a War of 1812 record for Jeptha Caps or Capps,who served from Warren County,North Carolina.There is no regiment listed in what I have seen so far.I don't know if he had a pension. He later moved to franklin County,NC and then by 1830 to Nash County,NC.I don't have a death date.Let me know what I need to do to ,and thank you!

I'd be glad to do lookups and make copies of wartime service and pension records (Revolution, Civil War, 1812, Spanish-American, Philippines, Mexican and Indian wars), for a reasonable fee (to cover my time and copy prices.) Going through the archives staff can take months -- it'll take me about two weeks, in general, though there can be exceptions. And, of course, I am a real live person to interact with instead of a form. I'm well-acquainted with research. I'm also a genealogist myself, not a profiteer (I have a day job!). I'm only offering because I love the topic and because I know how difficult it is to get ahold of these particular records, since they aren't all on microfilm. If anybody's interested, send me an email with your ancestor's name and unit served (if known), and I can give you some more information. Best, Kathy Wolfe (Researching the Mersereau and Martin families of Middlesex Co., NJ.) ________________________________________ PeoplePC Online A better way to Internet http://www.peoplepc.com
