My written history or family outline does not contain the fact that my ancestors took part in the War of the Revolution but these lines cause me to think that some of my ancestors participated. Virg:
Isaac Coy the Harrison County Pioneer was born in New Jersey in 1731. He was the son of Philip & Hannah Trembly Coy. He married Miss Sarah Sutton of New Jersey and after the Revolution about 1790, came to Harrison County. He died in 1835, aged 107 years. They He had five children.

I return herewith the letter of Mr. Favene upon the subject of the claim of Mr. Isaac Cox as in reply have to state, that this is one of the claims from Lewis Co. presented by Mr. Wamsley the paymaster  as 1004, upon the report of Mr. Singleton, the District Attorney who examined Mr. Cox personally, suspended.
Mr. Cox states that he served 6 or 7 years in the State of N Jersey as a sergeant of a Militia company. What portion of that time, if any, he was engaged in actual service does not appear. The militia service in that State was performed in monthly terms by classes of the several companies, divided for that purpose. Mr. Cox has not attempted to specify his service as the rules require, but

Made the general statement that he served six years.
I have the honor
