Tracing Your Lineage Back to an American Revolutionary War Patriot does not have to be only on your fathers family. You can move to a daughter at any generation. You must keep a Blood Connection, but it can be from either a son or a daughter.

Bethany was the daughter of Jacob and Mary
Bethany Cordelia MaGee married Issac Fortenberry
