Two names are on the plaque at the Highland County, Ohio courthouse to commemorate Revolutionary War patriots buried there who were blood relatives in my family tree. There should have been three.
Thomas F. Bernard, John Foster Leaverton, and Samuel Woodmansee are the three who boasted service in the Revolutionary War and who are now buried in Highland County.
When I added it up recently, I found a confirmed list of 21 Revolutionary War patriots in my kids' pedigree.
Here's the complete list, at least as of November 2013, of my kids' patriots' blood.
The eleven confirmed patriots from their Dad's side:
Robert Jameson
George Daubenspeck
James Ebenezer Smith
Michael Reitenauer
James Wygant
James Gutridge
John Foster Leaverton
Thomas Fleming Bernard
John Downing
Joseph Conway
Samuel Woodmansee
The ten patriots from their Mom's side:
Joshua Quance
Ebenezer Cole, Sr.
Ebenezer Cole, Jr.
Zadock Bosworth
Daniel Walton
Thomas Adkins
John Nay
Charles Gatliff
Charles Booth
Samuel Ferguson
There's still some potential more to show up as my research efforts continue. Stay tuned kids.

UPDATE December 2013: Add Jeremiah Shontz, Daniel Smith, and Henry Guthrie to the Dad's side of the list. Add Moses Searle, James Felix McGuire, and Ebenezer Gage to the Mom's side. Now, that's 27. But, I still bet I find more.
