| David Lindsey signed
his name to receive pay for serving in the Westmoreland County militia in
1782. The date the men signed is not given. It may have been
several years later. A record on file at the Pennsylvania Archives
Online site shows a certificate that was issued to David Lindsay for
military pay in 1785. The amount he was paid matched the amount for
the 1782 service. See below. |

| This certificate was
issued in 1785. It appears to be the same amount that David signed
for in the above record. Perhaps the men were paid in 1785 for
service they did in 1782 in Westmoreland County. |
