Actually I have not found any land in Greene Co that was given to Rev War soldiers as bounty land. The bounty land tract was in northern New York State. Pretty much all the available land in Greene Co was already wrapped up in old Dutch Patents and Patents issued to officers of the French and Indian Wars and the Hardenburgh Patent as well.
