TIP#209 - REVOLUTIONARY WAR BOUNTY RECIPIENTS, PART 2 Statewide KyArchives Military Records..Revolutionar War ************************************************ Copyright. All rights reserved. http://www.usgwarchives.net/copyright.htm http://www.usgwarchives.net/ky/kyfiles.html ************************************************ File contributed for use in USGenWeb Archives by: Sandi Gorin https://www.genrecords.net/emailregistry/vols/00002.html#0000404 This is a continuation of the officers and soldiers of Virginia who received bounty lands in Kentucky. Not all of them settled in Kentucky after the war and there is no way for me to verify that the following individuals actually came to Kentucky. These are taken from old Quisenberry records. According to the old records, Bounty lands were received primarily in Kentucky, Indiana and Ohio. Major-Generals received from 15,000 to 17,500 acres; Colonels normally received 8,888 acres; Lieutenant-Colonels normally received 6,666 acres; Majors normally received 5,333 acres; Surgeons and Surgeon’s Mates received from 2,666 to 8,000 acres; Captains usually received 4,666 acres and Lieutenants, Ensigns and Cornets received normally 2,666 acres. The following lists show those Virginia officers and soldiers who received bounty lands – however, no distinction is made as to in which state the land lay. Not all of them located in Kentucky.
