This is some information relative to James Adair Sr. that I found at the National Archives in Washington D.C.. This is not my James, but I thought it could be useful to someone.
James Adair Sr., who was born in Bucks Co., Pa., May 8, 1752, served in the Revolutionary War. This data was obtained from pension claim, S.9264, based upon the military records of James Adare. He signed as Adare but was pensioned as James Adair
He was born May 8, 1752, in Bucks Co., Pa. The name of his Parents were not given.
While a resident of York District, South Carolinia, he inlisted in 1776 and served three weeks in Captain Frank Ross' company in Colonel Thomas Neel's South Carolinia regiment. He enlisted again in 1776 and served three month in Captain John McCool's company in Colonel David Hopkins' regiment. He inlisted in 1777 and served two mounths in Captain John McCool's Company. He was in an expedition against the Indians on the western frontier and at Horse Shoe on War Women's Creek were he was wounded in his left soulder by a ball.
During the Revolution he moved to Carven County (which was later Chester District) South Carolinia.
He was allowed pension on his application executed October 24, 1832, at which time he was living in Chester District South Carolinia, and was referred to as James Adare Sr.
