    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Author: templetonr1 Surnames: Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.northam.usa.states.southcarolina.counties.chester/2175.2.2.2.2.1.1.1/mb.ashx Message Board Post: William Willis Bodie published a list of 2500 men who served under Marion. Asa Darby is in the private-nco listing. No one named Frost or Gore is listed in the Captains section. Most men under Marion were from the Pee Dee area of SC. Note there are two Asa Darbys listed in the SC 1790 census for Chester County, SC. One is believed to be the son of a Jacob Darby who lived in the Pee Dee area. One descendant of the Asa who died in 1833 has stated this Asa served in the war with the Maryland Militia and did move to SC until after the war. He was for sure still in Maryland in 1778 when he signed a proclamation declaring allegiance to the new government. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
