DAR marker for Henry Harrison Hand located on a slab-style grave in old 
Pleasant Grove Methodist Church Cemetery in Methvins, Sumter County, Georgia.  
The DAR marker states: "Revolutionary Soldier Henry Harrison Hand 1776 1783 
Placed by Council of Safety Chapter DAR" 

DAR records indicate that it was not Henry Harrison Hand, but rather his father 
Rev. Henry Hand, who served in the Revolutionary War.  DAR records for Henry 
Harrison Hand indicate that he was born February 23, 1793 and so did not serve 
in the Revolution.  Henry Harrison Hand may be the same person as Henry H. Hand 
who served as a private and sergeant in Bowling's Detachment, Georgia Militia 
in the War of 1812.

references.
