Continental Soldiers Killed Where?

I have done a few pages of the men of the Continental Army and would like to do one more. I have been trying to decided on how to us this information, but the truth is if I add all the information to the names on this list I would have to put it on two or more pages. So I thought I would try something a little different. I will list all the names I have, that were killed and where, and what Sate he was from, then let you decided if you would like the information. Those of you who have visited my site before know the kind of information I have to offer, but for those of you who are new to this site I will give a couple of examples of the information that will be provided on these names. If you would like information on a name you can write to me the following: dsegelquist1@cox.net

I hope to hear from you soon.

Up date May 12, 08,
It has be brought to my attention that some of the information from this list is in error, But in all fairness to Mr. Heitman, book as far as he know the information was true as he had the documents in front of him and had to take them as true.
