Joseph ANDERSON served in Artillery in the Revolutionary War in VA, TN , KY, IL under Colonel George Rogers Clark (commencing June 1779 until December 1781) throughout Col. Clark’s various campaigns against English Forts. (Documented in "Kentucky Historical Society" by Margery Heberling Harding titled "George Rogers CLARK a nd his Men - Military Records, 1778-1784"). Later Joseph ANDERSON traveled so often between Abbeville, SC and Randolph Co., Illinois (in late 1780's-90’s) that he may have been one of the leaders of the Westward land migration. (i.e. of veterans going we st claiming "Revolutionary War Veteran" bounty land ) Any assistance, however slight, would be appreciated.
