The only published record of the men who fought under him comes from the claims that were later filed for militia pay against the state of South Carolina. Joseph Willis, Richard Curtis and Ezekiel O'Quinn said they fought under Marion in the Revolutionary War; but none of them filed for militia pay. >> What Richard Curtis is this and where did you get this information? !Am descended from a Richard Curtis, who was in South Carolina, in the PeeDee region.
