I don't know why I didn't pick up on that...I had a well-known researcher in the Baltimore area who gave me the information many years ago. Perhaps he meant brothers instead of sons. Perhaps I should be researching other Griffins from the Baltimore area who were in the Rev.

Thanks for your help!

You would not be the first, and certainly not the last, to make this kind of mistake. I have found it helpful to create family chronologies in a word-processing program. This makes it easier to see where data might be in conflict, and often helps sort out same-name people who were, say, in completely different places at the same time.

Good hunting,

Your statement is some what true, although if one was to do a little math one would see that both of this men and those on my list could have fight in the Revolutionary war too.
What I’m in error of is not being careful about how I stated my title. My info comes from the ( Pension rolls of the Unite States), which is the true title, and has both the Revolutionary and the war of 1812, pensioners together. I don’t know why I got to calling it the Revolutionary pension rolls, but I will start calling it by it’s true title.

I called this the Revolutionary Pension rolls when in fact both the Rev. war and the war of 1812, are both on the same roll. Rezin Hinton was in the war of 1812. But cuse in case this is your man I will give his info.

Rezin Hinton, was from Maryland, Baltimore county, was a private in the 38th., Infantry, of the War of 1812, died on August 22, 1814, his only heir recorded was Priscilla Hinton. His allowaance was $48., and received $240., was placed on the roll March 3, 1820, commencement of pension May 20, 1820, ending of pension May 20, 1824.

This was very helpful in that it proves that it is NOT my "Reason Hinton". Though, may very well be a relative, so I will keep the info for possible future use! Thank you so much for your time!

Forgot to ask: Where, specifically, is this information from, so that I may correctly source it?
