These are scans I made from xeroxes of the original vouchers I found
at NC Archives. If you can prove your line back to any of these folks,
this will get you into DAR. I have no idea if DAR would accept the letters
of Samantha Ann Smith Currie and Emma White Woodward for this purpose or
not. Maybe one of the descendants would like to try it and find out. Somebody
needs to break the ice. I have the original letters and will be glad to
provide notarized copies, a deposition, or whatever DAR wants to go with
them for validation purposes.

As I remember it, these came from National Archives. Lela Peterson was
there, ran across it, and got copies for me. Joseph's brother Christopher
also served, but either she couldn't obtain his records or thought I wouldn't
want them. Anyway, I don't have his.
