Alas, he does not appear to be listed in Heritage Quest (HQ) under the Revolutionary War pension info, nor does he appear in the Index to Revolutionary War Pension Applications published in NGSQ back in 1943. He did, however, live long enough that he could have received a pension if he was otherwise qualified. Perhaps he was financially comfortable enough not to need one. Incidentally, I note that the pension info at HQ can be quite limited in individual cases. In at least two or three that I've examined, there was far more genealogical information in the full pension file than in the images that appear in HQ, though the HQ images usually seem to contain the pension applicant's affidavit.
