    Findagrave notes list Feb. 27, 1751 as the birthdate although the grave marker says 1762. So other notes there are now suspect. I have only entered what is on the grave marker.

  2. Sons of the American Revolution. Membership information and application forms for Sons of the American Revolution, 1776-1996. (Salt Lake City, Utah: Genealogical Society of Utah, 1993-1996).

    SAR Application states John arriived in Virginia in 1756, making the birthdate of 27 February 1751 on his Find-A-Grave page more likely.
