Hi cousins; I got this off the Ancestry Newletter for today (in hopes it may help someone): ======================================================= DATABASE OF THE DAY (Free for 10 Days!) Pennsylvania Volunteers in the War of 1812 Compiled from the Pennsylvania Archives collection, this database is a listing of soldiers who volunteered to fight the British during the War of 1812. Each volunteer is listed with the county from which he came and the year in which he enlisted. In addition to this information, the list is organized by rank and position. To the researcher of Pennsylvania ancestry, this can be a valuable database. Bibliography: Pennsylvania Archives. Muster Rolls of the Pennsylvania Volunteers in the War of 1812-1814.
