Looking for proof of a relative in the War of 1812. I'd like to send for the military records. My ggggrandmother's brother's line showed that another brother, William Franklin LONG b 1 Mar 1797 d. 6 Dec 1813 (in/near Detroit, MI) in the War of 1812). I have looked for lists, but have not found his name. TheyWilliam's parents (John and Isabella/Sibella (THOMPSON) LONG) were in Fairfield Co., OH, in 1810, so William probably served from that area. They were not in Hancock Co. until the 1820's. Any idea where to go from here? Suzy
