John Nell is my 4th great grandfather and I would like to know how I can get documentation of his Revolutionary War service. The John Nell I am talking about farmed and lived many years in Adair County and died there at age 90 in 1852. --Thank you, Dianne Cox
Dianne, Thanks for writing. Most of the information on our Veteran's Page has come from reader submissions, including the hard work of a few very diligent researchers and local historians. We're posting your letter in hopes that one of them will be able to point you to proper primary sources.
