David Kirby (1740-1832) of Westport MA 

Joseph Oatley (1756-1815) of S. Kingston RI.

Amazingly, each of them survived their wartime experiences.

I thank God for these men, the families that nurtured them, the wives and parents that supported them, and the children who learned from them the importance of service to their country.


Thank you, gentlemen soldiers, and your families, for your service and your bravery.  I wish that I had known you.  You've provided me with a wonderful ancestry, and I greatly appreciate it, every day.
