I will add this list of Bedford countians who served in the war, but may not have applied for a pension, which has been extracted from the book by By J. T. McAllister, Hot Springs, Virginia;
Copyright 1913 by McAllister, Facsimile Reprint by
Heritage Books, Inc. 1989, 337 pages incl. Index.
Virginia Militia in the Revolutionary War extracted for computer file by William M. Hunt 12/1/2000
Comment:
Hi Rena,
I'm not sure whether there are errors in that particular list, but in general there are quite a large number of errors in McAllister's Book. His list is only for the militia, and I believe was taken from county records. Some of the errors might be in the original documents. The ones I spotted are as follows:
Green, Moses should be Greer, Moses
Leftwich, Uriah should be Leftwich, Urial
Murphy, William omitted from p188 but his pension application is abstracted (#157)
Otley, John should be Otey, John
Price, Brown and Price, Bowen are probably the same person, Bowen Price
Rentree, Isaac and Rentfro, Isaac are the same person, Rentro or Renfro being the common spelling, to be safe it might be better to go to the original source, if available.
There are many pension applicants that I have transcribed that are not in McAllister's list, either because they weren't mentioned in the county records or because they were in Continental service.
