Capt. John Hurst - Virginia - b.c. 1732
I am looking for info proving the service record of Capt. John Hurst from Shenandoah Co, then Montgomery Co, Virginia.There is a marker in Harrison Co, Indiana which commemorates his service, but gives no other info.Supposedly, according to family tradition, he was a Lieutenant when captured by the British and held prisoner on Long Island, but later became a Captain.His wife at the time of the Revolution was Lydia Smith, though she died about 1786 and he married a widow, Mary Barksdale Lindsey, shortly after.Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
