    3. Hello, I am looking for the burial site of William SMITH who died 10 Nov 1780. According to a document I received from a cousin, he was mentioned in the "Moravian Diaries" , Vol IV, page 1634, Bethabara Diary as a military or militia man and was buried in the parrish graveyard. There is mention that he was "shot in camp"...but, since he was born about 1705 and died 1780, I wonder what the circumstances could have been that a 75 year old man should have (a)been shot (b) been defined as a military/militia man. There's also the question of what he was doing at a Moravian camp. Is there an index to the Dobb's Parish Graveyard ? If so, could I please request a look-up for William Smith ?
