Some of my relatives fought for independence also, three brothers, and their descendants still live on the land received as compensation for their service, 2500 acres in eastern North Carolina. I grew up on the land and helped farm it and hunt on it.

My 4th Great Grandfather fought in North Carolina as a Mariner with the rank of Lt. Colonel:
Warrant #60, was issued September 12, 1789 for four hundred fifty acres of bounty land, on account of the service of John Armstrong, Lieutenant Colonel of the North Carolina, War of the Revolution.
(I want to file the paperwork and join the Sons of the American Revolution)
Our land is in the Jasper community outside New Bern, NC. I'm still researching and trying to get the legal paperwork, but these things take time. I have a copy of a deed that locates boundaries with tree stumps and creek lines. Of course, those lines are gone or moved after over 200 years. But, research is ongoing.
