We are missing one brother in the family a "S Thomas" born circa 1770 at probably Massachusetts. He was taken prisoner on July 15, 1779, reported to be of about nine years of age...no name with him, only listed in what documents we have found as "S Thomas". Perhaps Sylvanus? Looking forward to hearing from you once again! Michelle
