Here is what I learned of Philip via a Patriot Index lookup as well: RAPP, Philip Birth: GR 16 Aug 1725 Service: PA Rank: PS Death: PA 20 Apr 1793 Patriot Pensioned: No Widow Pensioned: No Children Pensioned: No Heirs Pensioned: No Spouse: (1) Elizabeth X I have copies of applications submitted by DAR members for each of these Rapps. As always, if anyone happens to be researching the same line, be sure to post. I have some more information on Barnet Rapp and perhaps his son Barnet (that gets confusing!) from sources I was able to use at the Genealogical Society of Pennsylvania today. Let me know if you're interested. Sandra, thanks for posting that.
