If anyone has the book West Virginia In the Revolution by Ross B. Johnson, reprint 1977, would you do a look-up for me and send an e-mail attachment of: Moses Tichenor serving in the Revolutionary War. He was listed in a Captain Layton's Co. of Morris Co., NJ Militia in 1778 and was drafted into the VA Militia for a tour of duty to guard the prisoners, taken at the surrender of Lord Cornwallis at York Town, who were confined in Frederick Co., VA. I have the information, but I need a copy from the original book for the DAR. Thanks to anyone who can help me. I will really appreciate it. Susie youngl@rosenet.net

Susie, I have this book but Moses Tichenor is not one of the Revolutionary War soldiers in it. The closest is David Tichinal (1764-1854). I looked thru all the T's. Do you have a page number for Moses Tichenor?

Janice, The information on the Preston Co Revolutionary War soldiers was mostly for the benefit of the others on the List. There were probably thousands of troops present when Lord Cornwallis surrendered. I know of no listing naming them all.

Janice, The only information I have on John Jennings is what is in West Virginians in the American Revolution but I suppose you have this information.

Janice, In addition to Jacob Feather provided by Billie Lovett, Reuben Jenkins can probably also be added to the list of Prestonians who were at Yorktown although his claim for a pension was rejected. These non-Prestonians who served at Yorktown in one capacity or another are listed in West Virginians in the American Revolution: Jonathan Adams Richard Addison John C Aleshire (or Aleshite or Aleshete) Stephen Archer Jacob Argabright (Argubrite, Argabrite) (John Atkins) William Ballard Samuel B Beall Henry Berry Charles Blechynden Patrick Board (one of my ancestors) Marshall Bowman John Bradshaw John Brown Samuel Carpenter Samuel Clark William Clarke John Cottrill Harmon Crim William Davis (2) Abraham Dehart Wipon Fiatt Peter Fisher William Ford John Foster Anthony Fox Henry Frank James Glenn Thomas Good Elijah Griffin George Hanger Thomas Hannan John Hansbrough William Hawkins John Hereford William Hook David Jacobs George Johnson Thomas Johnson Berryman Jones George Keller Jacob Keyser (Kayser) Thomas Leach John Mace Nichols Madeira Hugh Malone Job Martin Michael McKnight John Miller Benjamin Morgan Edward Morton John Nay George Nipper (Nippers) Samuel Ogden John O'Neal Christopher Parrot Peter Peck Thomas Perry Zachariah Rexrode Philip Richcreek (Rickcrick) Jonas Roush (Rouch) Thomas Russell Nicholas N Ryland Reuben Samons (Sammons, Simons or Simmons) Thomas Sampkins Samuel Sams (Sands) Charles Shaw Patrick Sinnett (Sinnat, Senate, or Sennatt) John Smith (John Spencer) John M Waggoner (Thomas Walker) Charles Wall James White Joseph White Henry Whiteman (Whitman) (John Wilson) There were thousands of soldiers present at the siege of Yorktown and capture of Lord Cornwallis. The above list is just a drop in the bucket. Unless a definitive listing, preferably by regiment, of who were there can be found, there's not much more I can do on this.
