SOLDIERS OF THE REVOLUTION
Page 406

     THE Sons of the Revolution of Columbus, Ohio, have furnished the following list of such soldiers, who lived in Fairfield County.  We have not attempted to verify the list, but take it for granted that it is substantially correct.  There are other names that we believe properly belong to this list -
Rev. John Wiseman,  buried at New Salem;
James Holmes, buried at Wells graveyard, Licking County, and
Gen. James Wells buried at the Wells graveyard, near Hooker.
William McFarland, father of the late Walter McFarland, buried at Wells graveyard.
The descendants of these men claim with confidence that they were soldiers under Washington; but we have not the data to verity it; also, Michael Rice, of Hocking township.  Emanuel Ruffner was a teamster in the war of the revolution.
     Dr. Robert Wilcox was a surgeon in the Revolution; John and George Hill, both died in Walnut township; Reev. Cradlebaugh of Rush Creek township.

THE FOLLOWING IS THE SONS OF THE REVOLUTION OF COLUMBUS LIST.
