The pic has been saved. Eureka! There he is in Caanan, Litchfield, Connecticut in 1820! After being such a mystery, Adino Barnes lived in Caanan all his life. His name shows clearly on at least two census records as ADINO. So much for the Barnes Family Yearbooks. The Barbour Collection has his first name as ADIRA.

Rank - Induction: DRUMMER Rank - Discharge: DRUMMER Roll Box: 11 Roll Exct: 602 The National Archives was unable to find a record of his military service. Their note reads, "Service records for the Revolutionary War are incomplete. Many of the original records were lost in a fire that occurred November 8, 1800, in offices occupied by the War Department. Other records were lost in 1814 when public buildings in Washington were ransacked and burned by the British Army. Because of these incidents some Federal pensions were approved for Revolutionary War veterans even though no official documentation of their service exists among the records of the War Department. In such cases, pensions were usually granted based on the authenticity of the affidavits and other supporting evidence submitted by the veteran and others concerning his military service." References
