Good information family, I would also like the picture, or data concerning this powder horn. Thank you Deborah spells -----Original Message----- From: Jeremy Utt [mailto:jeremy_utt@hotmail.com] Sent: Tuesday, January 17, 2006 8:22 AM To: PATE-L@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [PATE GENEALOGY] Rev. Jacob Parkerson (Where buried?) Lindy, I am very thankful for your information. Thanks for the documentation of Rev. Jacob Parkerson's military service, and other information about his life. Your email was the first reference to a Revolutionary War era powder horn that I have heard of being passed down through the Pate family. I would certainly like to know who has it. I would very much appreciate a photograph of this powder horn for my records. What is known about this powder horn? FYI, I am copying this email to William Nash (Registrar of Richmond (VA) Chapter SAR, who is helping me with the Rev. Jacob Parkerson application) and Karen Utt (maiden name Pate, who is my mother).
