Well, while I'm at it: I am also interested in Joshua Palmer who also served in the Revolutionary War from Union County where he settled just prior to the outbreak of the war. Joshua was born on March 12, 1747 in Virginia to Parmenas and Mary Ann (Draper) Palmer. He died in 1835 in Union District and is buried at Scull Shoals cemetery. The reason that I am interested in this Joshua is because supposedly he is the father of my ancestor Dale Palmer of Abbeville District, South Carolina. I am not convinced of this relationship because there is no apparent proof that I can identify. Dale was born in 1773 in Northumberland County, Virginia and then Joshua appears in Union County by 1775 when he enlisted in Colonel John Thomas' regiment. There is also no evidence that Dale ever lived in Union District where his father lived, and in fact, Dale continues to live in Northumberland County, Virginia where he lived and owned land and married Mary Jane Hayes in 1796. Not long afterwards, Dale migrated with his brother George to Abbeville County, South Carolina. Thanks for any help you can provide. Most Sincerely, Robert M. Wilbanks IV Scottsdale, Arizona
