Anyone with Ancestry.com membership willing to do a quick look-up for me?I'm leaving for the nearest Family History Center in an hour, but can't find one of my critical notes that I pulled from Ancestry.com last time I had membership priveleges. Smith Grubbs/Grubb was in the War of 1812, and is in the muster rolls and pension rolls for Virginia, but I can't remember the regiment that was listed. Thanks!!
