Jim wrote on a previous posting as follows:
"The Pa. militia required participation for all those between 18 and 53
so your probably right that it was George Jr."

I am interested in the participation of the religious groups that didn't
believe in taking up arms. Would they have served in some other capacity?
Did they serve anyway and if not, what were the consequences? I know that
one family left the states but that was not until after the American
Revolution.

Appreciative of information,
BK Stauffer
