Joseph Adair Sr. & Jr. Signatures

Interesting information, some new to me, found thanks to a Meta post about a resource at Southern Campaigns Revolutionary War Pension Statements & Rosters. I find new information here on a regular basis, it’s an incredible free resource for Revolutionary War researchers.

Signatures of South Carolina Officers

Joseph Adair, Jr.

This is the first hard evidence I have seen proving much conjecture and family tradition that Joseph Adair, Jr. did indeed serve as Deputy Commissary of the Little River Regiment. I believe that this was the regiment made up of many of the men from Duncan Creek Presbyterian, under Col. Levi Casey. Joseph Jr. did not seek a pension, by all accounts he was quite comfortable and didn’t request one.
