Following up on a previous post of mine regarding Bounty Land Grants in the VMD for John
Channell, I will let Charlene's email message speak for itself. As always, it will be
up to individual researchers to decide for themselves based upon the available research
and evidence . (Note that I have abstracted the original email from Charlene for brevity.
If anyone wants the entire message contents for their files email me for a copy.)
The book cited here is found, among other places, at the main branch of the FHL, Salt Lake
City, Third Floor, DAR Index Series.

Dear Micheal Mathews,
Your ancestor was not found in our Patriot Index. This does not mean he did not serve in
some capacity during the Revolutionary War. It simply means no one has joined DAR using
his service.
sorry, but i didn't find your patriot in the DAR patriot database which contains only
those revolutionary war soldiers who have been proven by a prospective member to the
organization
If you are interested in joining DAR, there are members in each chapter who assist
prospective members in documenting their Revolutionary Patriot.
Thank you for your interest in the DAR Patriot Lookup Service.
Sincerely,
Charlene
Patriot Lookup Volunteer
