fellow Wallace researchers,

I have come accross the following information during my research. I
would appreciate any help regarding the following information.

This is from a DAR application I recently came across.
---------
The service of Rev. John Wallace is listed in Lafells record of the
Revolutionary War. He is listed as a private. He was in Col. John
Gibson's detachment, Western Division, (9th & llth VA) He was residing
near Salisbury, NC when he entered the service in VA to be with his
Wallace cousins in that state. He was the son of John Wallace of
Glasgow, Scotland, emigrated from there to PA, then to Tapphannock
River, VA, then to Union District, SC.

Rev. John Wallace removed to Indiana Territory 1808. He was then a
minister of the Methodist Episcopal Church and was the first circuit
ridr in Southern Indiana.

Thank you,

Joe Wallace
