Dear Sir,

I am preparing my papers for membership in the DAR society.  Paul Hubert was my great great grandfather.  He was a full blooded Frenchman.  He was born in Canada.  He was in service for nearly six

years of the Revolution.  He moved to Delaware and from there to Mississippi.  Can you tell me if this grant of land of one hundred acres allowed to Paul Hubert under Warrant No 13170, issued Oct 12, 1790, was in either of these states?

You write that Paul Hubert was in Lower Canada in 1800.

Can you tell me how you

know this?  Can you tell me the name of Paul Hubert's wife?  His sone David, my great grandfather, was born in 1782.

Thanking you for your assistance in this matter.  I am most sincerely
