If you would like to make contact with other researchers of a veteran(s), send me you name and email address. I will post this at the end of the veteran's information. To contact you, others can then click on your name and send you and email. (See American Revolution A-J: William Carrowon, and others, my ancestors to whose names I've added my name and email address so that others may contact me.) 2. If you have any information on any veteran, before, during and after his service, please share it with us and I will post it on a separate page linked with that veterans name. 3. Anyone having information on old photos of any veteran, from any period, please contact me Go to Hyde County Home Page http://www.rootsweb.com/~nchyde/HYDE.HTM ************************************************************************ File contributed for use in the USGenWeb Archives by: Hyde County NCGenWeb (jmack@bbs.carolina.net) USGENWEB NOTICE: In keeping with our policy of providing free information on the Internet, data may be freely used by non-commercial entities, as long as this message remains on all copied material.
