Dear Myra:
I am sorry, but I cannot help you with that question. The information that you have, that he was a Pvt. is what is listed in the Patriot Index. That is the only information we have about a Patriot.
I don't have information about the Spaulding Memorial. The DAR is pretty accurate when they approve an ancestor.
Are you a DAR member? If not, and you have an interest in becoming a member let me know and I will put put you in touch with our supervisor and she will put you in touch with a chapter in your area.
Regards.
Laura
