William seems to be a deserting Hessian Soldier from Savanna GA in July l982. I have considerable info on the Hessian but need birth date or city/country of origin on William SEVERS. Expense is not a primary concern on this and I would appreciate ANY suggestions or assistance. I have looked for an indenture or oath of allegiance without success. Is it possible there might be a newspaper (l793) account or any document that he might have given his birthdate or age, etc. His age calculates birth at l752 and the Hessian was Feb l751. I suspect the l751 English Calender might change that date to Feb l752 due to the change to Gregorian Calender when, in fact, Germany changed years before and the date needed no change. I have good Computer and Genealogical sources in Louisville, KY at my access and will be, also, glad to exchange research or cash for any assistance. Charles Severs Louisville, Ky
