He is not in the SAR Patriot Index for 2002, but if you join the SAR he will be listed in the following edition. Let me know where you live and I can put you in touch with an SAR chapter near you.

Thanks, I currently am an active member in the SAR. I am in the process of completing my supplemental application with James Reese as my veteran ancestor.

Hudson - I noted your post some time ago relating to James Rees, Revolutionary War Soldier. I descended back to James through his son William Rees and wife Amelia Eleanor Beall. I am a member of the DAR and I have been working on James Rees as a supplemental patriot/ancestor. I have yet to find his military papers/documents and I will be the first to prove James Rees in the DAR patriot list so I hope you can help guide me. Any assistance you might give would be so very much appreciated. If you can contact me through my email address: parfittd@comcast.net

Regards.
