These names have been gathered from a variety of sources and the list may
not be complete. Those who applied in 1818 applied as indigents. The numbers following the state are pension numbers. Gen. Edward Lacy is probably the best known of the Livingston Veterans. He was born in PA, served from SC and came to KY after the War. He drowned when he fell off his horse into Deer Creek in 1813. If there is sufficient interest, a file of information concerning each of these individuals can be created on this page. If you have information you wish to share,

SCOTT served in the light dragoons under Capt. John REID, Lt. Col. Wade
HAMPTON and Gen. SUMTER during 1781 (per "Roster of South Carolina
Patriots in the American Revolution" by Bobby Gilmer MOSS). He was
granted a Head Right Land Grant, Certificate #4224, for 200 acres in
that part of Livingston Co. which became Caldwell County 1809). So far
as we know, he never applied for a Revolutionary War pension as,
apparently, he was never indigent.

Wilson was a native of Caswell County, NC and served as a Captain in
Col. Abraham Shepard's 10th N.C. Regiment. He fought in the Battles of
Guildford Court House, and Eutaw Springs. He moved to Livingston County
approx 1811 and died shortly thereafter. His wife, Amelia Burgess
Wilson, was born in Pittsylvania County, Virginia on 1 September 1775;
she married James Wilson in Caswell County North Carolina on 10
December 1792; and she died in Livingston County, Kentucky on 8
September 1865. They had seven children, all born in Caswell County, NC.
