I am looking for information on William Richard Hardy. He was born 1727 in Isle of Wright County, VA and died 1796 in Luenburg County, VA. He married Mary Elizabeth Winn in 1746 in Luenburg Co., VA. From the information that I have, he was a soldier in the Revolutionary War. He entered the Army on February 14, 1778, and served in the company of Captain William Grimes, in the 15th Virginia Regiment commanded by Major Gustav Wallace. He was transferred in June to Lieutenant Colonel John Cropper's company, 11th and 15th Virginia Regiment, commanded successively by Lt. Col. John Cropper and Col. Daniel Morgan. Any further information that you can give me will be much appreciated. I have been told that someone joined the DAR as his descendant, but I do not know whether or not this is true.

Thank you so much for any help that you can offer, and thank you for this wonderful means of finding out more information about our ancestors!
