Ginny and others. Years ago I found a book in the Houston Clayton Library that detailed names of Loyalists in the Rev. War and noted confiscation of their property. Some of the names from the Rowan Co., NC area were some of those I was looking for and they moved on to TN from there about the 1782 time frame. Did not note the book name or author - thought I was going to be back right away but moved away instead. Someone else might find such a book at their library. Interesting read.
