I have recruited Ellie Stites Swanger <EllieSS@aol.com> to
help
with this page and to serve as a point of
contact
for
those interested in membership with the Daughters
of the American Revolution (DAR). Ellie does Patriot Lookups
for those seeking their forebears that may be listed in the DAR Patriot
index and she is a DAR national award winner for the many volunteer
hours
she has contributed online for the DAR thru America on Line.
Hopefully,
we will get all the Sloan veterans listed below. If you have
other
ancestors (non-Sloan) that you think may have served in the
Revolutionary
War, drop Ellie an note.
The initial Patriot listing below was contributed by Ellie based on the
SLOAN, SLOANE, SLONE Patriots as found in the DAR Patriot Index,
Centennial
Edition, c. 1990, p. 2689-90. To get more info on these Sloans,
you will need to send for a copy of a member's application. They
are $5-$10 each, and you don't need to know the applicants name or
number, click
here for details. You just need to specific the information
below and ask for a recent file with the children listed. . .
preferably
no supplementals. The mailing address is NSDAR NATIONAL HEADQUARTERS,
1776
D Street, N.W. Washington, D.C. 20006-5303
The
patriots
with a red dot are Sloans with Revolutionary War Service not found in
the
DAR Patriot Index. Probably because no descendant has ever applied for
DAR/SAR membership.
To find out more information about the individuals listed you will need to visit the National Archives in Washington, DC or your nearest Regional Branch Office. At the Archives you can take a look at the Revolutonary War Patriots Compiled Service Records or the Pension applications of the Patriot and/or his widow. The pension applications are one of the best (and frequently the ONLY) sources for genealogical information.
Codes and abbreviations: b = born; d = death; m = married; PS=Patriotic Service <fed the soldiers, furnished horses, housed them, etc.>; CS = Civil Service; Sol = no details known; CL = Continental Line); PNSR or WPNS = there are pension records on the patriot (PNSR) or/and his widow (WPNS).
Many of them are linked to their file in the Sloan
Database.
A red PNSR indicates that a transcribed
pension
record is in the file. I'm not sure I'll always maintain these
links.
If you have trouble finding the patriot in the index, look for the wife.
Due to the
deletion of a corrupted file in my
FTM database, all links to individuals in my WorldConnect database file
are bad and all Post-ems have disappeared!! This will take some
time
to correct.
