    3. Here are some people who served our country in various wars. I found these in Greenbrier Co. WVa, Heritage 1997 Book. David Clinebell's son, John T. Clinebell, first served with the 166th Regiment of the VA Militia early in the war. Later he joined the newly formed 26th Infantry Battalion. Ulrick was born Ulrick Vollenweider, in Kappel, Switzerland in 1727. During the Revolutionary war Ulrick and his oldest son Jacob served in the York County Militia. The spelling became Fulwider on the Militia rolls. York Co. is in Pennsylvania. Mary Jane McClung Fulwider was b. in Greenbrier Con in 1834. Her parents were Katy John McClung and Rebecca Burr. They were married in Greenbrier Co. 1833. Their son, James, died serving the confederate States of America in 1862. George Anthony McGraw m. Elizabeth "Betsy" Brian McGraw. He was a private under Capt. John McClung. [I am not sure which John McClung this would be.] He was in the 4th Regiment Virginia Militia during the War of 1812. He died from disease while hospitalized at Hampton, Va. in 1814. Moses Fleshman married Elizabeth Orbaugh in 1788. He was a soldier in the VA. militia during the Rev. War. Allen Flint's father, was captured by Federal soldiers during the Civil War and placed in prison, where he died. It does not specify his father's name, but there is other biography material in the article. John Knight joined the Confederate Forces serving as a First Lieuntenant, 135th Regiment, Virginia Quartermaster Corp. He married Margaret Abigail Callison in 1866. Margaret's father was Israel J. Callison, son of Anthony Callison and ABigail McClung, formerly of Pocanhontas Co. VA. Dr. Charles Thacher, served as an Asst. Surgeon in the Civil War in the 14th Regiment. George W. Williams entered the Confederate Army, serving with the 69th Va, known as Wise's Legion, and later served with Bryan's 13th Battalion of Artillery until 1864. He then was promoted to Major of the Signal Corps on general Breckenridge's staff. There is more on these people on the pages that I have. If anyone wants more complete info about the people who are mentioned here, feel free to ask. I am sure there is more information in the other pages that I have, but there is a limit on how much time I can spend on this, at this time. Will try to get to do more on this project at another time.
