Hi Theresa, thanks for coming by my blog. Yours is very nice-- will add it to my blogroll so I don't forget to stop by.
What a great document-- did you find it on Fold3? They have a large collection of military records going back to the Revolutionary War, often with images of the original documents like this.
I found this document on Ancestry (parent of fold3). Not sure if they have everyone indexed yet as I could not locate our other ancestor in this database.
Great document. It's amazing how many things are showing up online. Off to see what Jonesboro kin I find.
