Hello Bill, In the autumn of 2004, I visited the Wellsburg Cemetery where Richard Comfort (1745-1824) is interred. No veteran's marker was present at his gravesite. Is there some controversy whether or not Richard actually served in the New York militia during the war? I have not been able to obtain any of his war records nor pension records, if they exist. However, I may not be searching in the right place(s). I am the 5th great-grandson of Richard and Charity (surname unknown) Comfort, descended from their daughter Hannah COMFORT (1782-1857). Do you posses copies of Richard's war records or can you direct me to a reliable source? Will share what I have. Sincerely, Paul E. Newell Ellicott City, MD Notify Administrator about this message?
