I am related up to David and William Bookless and Mary and Ann Cartmell. Would you be willing to share your information on them and their ancestors, if any? I have info on David’s son Scott and down, if you would like it. Thanks!

I’m going out of town for the weekend, but will dig out my sources when I get back and hopefully you can do the same and we can compare and verify data.

Seriously though, if you need any help, please let me know. You can get a record copy of the DAR application(s) documenting your ancestors, and you can even request copies of the supporting documents. More info here: http://www.dar.org/library/record_copy.cfm .

No, I’m not a DAR member. Need to actually get the documentation records to do that. Been trying to get one of my grandfather’s death records (can’t seem to find!) to get into the Nat’l Society of Daughters of the Union.

I can’t remember if you said you’re a DAR member or not, but I found the following in the DAR Ancestor Database:

CARTMELL, NATHANIEL

Rank: PATRIOTIC SERVICE

Death: 6 Oct 1795 FREDERICK CO VIRGINIA
Service Source: ABERCROMBIE & SLATTEN, VOL II, P 376,378, 385Service Description: 1) FURNISHED SUPPLIES
Spouse: SARAH X

There’s a Thomas Fuller married to Lydia Hazzard, but the dates are way off.

ALSO:

Jacob Maple born on (c) – - 1745 at NJ
died at OH on (p) – - 1779
and his ( 1st ) wife Elizabeth Stanford born on – - at Sommerville NJ
died at _______________ on – -

This Jacob Maple is listed as:

Death: (POST) 1779 OHIO
Service Description: 1) CAPT COMB, 3D REGT

Members were admitted through child William Maple and spouse Mary Fuller. Sounds like your guy!

If you’re not a DAR member, and you’d like me to look up anything else, please let me know. Have a great weekend!
