Morning Harold .....

Many thanks for the info ... unfortunately I didn't ask the right
question. I was looking for information on their death, dates, name of
ship, etc. It is only through 'family rumors' that the death has been
noted, nothing on paper. I may have to try and locate some form of
documentation from England indicating what ship etc. I have found info
on the Jersey but nothing with reference to names.

What I found interesting is that they were Quakers and since MAY HAVE
rufused to fight because of their faith ... the British would take
this as on side of Rev. solders.

I'll keep looking ... again thanks ...

Keith
