He was a private in "Capt. Thomas F. Anderson's Co. of Riflemen, Lt. Col. William Jones' Battalion Detached Georgia Militia". There were three muster rolls and one company pay roll from which the information was taken. The muster rolls show that he commenced service 21 Nov 1814 and stayed until 21 May 1815.
The distance from his residence to the "rendezvous" (presumably Ft. Hawkins) was 130 miles and another 130 miles back to his residence which took 17 days to complete roundtrip. For his service he was paid $8 per month and $.18 for rations. For 6 months and 1 day of service he received a total of $48.26 for pay and $1.53 for rations.
