You could check the Library of Virginia records online......I don't know whether they have them but they have a wealth of information on Rev. War records.....the URL is: http://www.lva.lib.va.us/whatwehave/mil/index.htm Scroll down to the different military records. They have many collections online you might want to check out also. Good luck!
