Diane and all, Thanks for the data in ur latest msg. Will have to digest some of it before saying anything else! But... did have one large item to submit because of the THOMAS QUEEN individual listed in the data. I copied the following from a book in the Henderson County Genealogical and Historical Society regarding historical residents of Burke County. This page is transcribed verbatim: "Queen, Thomas Summary of Early Life- Thomas Queen was living in Burke County, NC at the time of his service in the Revolutionary War. He was 80 in 1832. Summary of Partisan Activity- Thomas Queen entered military service in Burke County, NC in March, 1780. He was placed in a Company commanded by Capt. John McKenzie and Lt. humphrey Barnett. Field officers included Major Bluford and Col. (William) Hill. They marched into South Carolina, joining the forces of Gen. Thomas Sumter at Brown's old fields, on the Congaree River. He was marched to several places in North Carolina, South Carolina, and Georgia. He took part in an expedition to St. Augustine, Fla., directed against hostile Creek indicns. At one time he was with the troops of Gen Anthony Wayne in Georgia. On September 8, 1781 he participated in the battle of Eutaw Springs, SC., losing his horse during the battle. Queen's total enlistment was for a period of fifteen months. (One notices that Queen served entirely under South Carolina Officers. It was common practice in 1780 and 1781 for South Carolina officers to enter North Caorlina and recruit. This was done with the approval of local militia officers, including Col. Charles McDowell of Burke County.) Summary of later life- Thomas Queen married Elizabeth________. Their children were as follows: Margaret m. Michael Butler Nancy m. Andrew Bain John Elizabeth Eliott James Thomas Queen applied for Revolutionary War pension in MORGAN County, Alabama (his place of residence) on September 1, 1832, he was granted a pension of $55.00 per annum. Thomas Queen died on March 15, 1845. His widow died shortly afterwards, in the same year. End Quote. This seems to add a few more facts to your item which included Thomas Queen. Bear in mind, this was in a book, definitely not my research. Just adding fuel, I mean, data to the fray! Isn't this interesting, all this data and I still can't pick out James C. Queen. The Moses Queen, son of William Lewis, sure does interest me. Appears there is no continuity on this individual. Hope this data helps someone. Regards, Jerry.
