There is documentation of Brigances being in PA in the 1750's.The Rev. War record would not have been established until the 1770's (or later).
Cumberland Co., PA is not far from VA so there is the possibility they enlisted in the VA Militia even though they were of PA.
There is documentation at least three of the Brigances who came to the Cumberland Settlement (now Sumner Co., TN) were born in PA in the early 1770's (prior to or about the same time the VA militia record was established).
However, the above does not rule out the possibility some of the clan were not in VA at some time.
