>>His pension application was over 100 pages so

>>A brief history of James Tarrant from his pension application:
>>Born 30 Nov. 1753 in Pittsylvania, VA. His 
>>father moved the family to Amherst, VA when he 
>>was a boy and they lived there 16 years. From 
>>there, they moved to Henry, VA and lived there 
>>until 3-4 years after the war ended. In 1787, 
>>he moved along with his father to Greenville, 
>>SC & lived there until 1820 when he moved to 
>>Jefferson Co., AL. He died there in 1840. He 
>>was a Methodist Minister. His wife was not 
>>named, but he had 8 children I think it was. I 
>>gather his pension was denied as he hadnÃ¢Â€Â™t 
>>served at least a total of 6 months in the Rev. 
>>War (his service was of several weeks duration 
>>at least 2 different terms under Col. Abraham Penn).
>>
>>The letter from John Bolding is interesting. He 
>>had known Tarrant for 30 years from the time they lived in South Carolina.
>>
>>Diane
>>P.S. will look up more of these now and then. 
>>ItÃ¢Â€Â™s rather time consuming to read through 
>>& find the pertinent parts of the pension apps, as you can imagine!
