Please note:  NSSAR does not have information on every patriot who served during the American Revolution.   We do have information on those patriots that have been established by our members.

Due to limited staff we are unable to answer individual research requests for help.  Queries of this nature must be handled by a certified genealogist or a professional researcher of your choosing.  Please visit our library's website for a list of researchers.  These are people who have asked to be put on our list of available researchers.
