It sounds like you have set a major task for yourself, since of course you are not asking for others to do your work for you.This could include:
Subscribing to Ancestry.com and HeritageQuest to peruse their book and document databases.
Purchasing the Patriot Index compiled by Sons of the American Revolution.
Spending a week in a major library to consult
--Abstracts of Pension Files to find Conants who made affidavits for others' applications
--DAR Patriot Index
--DAR Lineage Books
--Sundry State publications concerning Revolutionary War Soldiers and Sailors, such as those published by Massachusetts and Pennsylvania
--Local histories listing soldiers who may appear on rosters never published or now lost
--National Archives Micropublication 246, Revolutionary War Rolls
You would have to go to a National Archives Regional Center to view microfilm of the huge microfilm database of miscellaneous Revolutionary War papers
Good hunting,
Jade
