Hello Jim,
Just saw your posting re. Maj. Thomas Figures. Am not a descendant but just completed DAR applications for three friends who are descendants of Thomas and wife Elizabeth W.(Their line went through Elizabeth W. back to Jeremiah Walker.) Am glad to know there are graves in Coffeeville, thought there should be but to date did not have that info. Do you know if Thomas Figures received bounty land for his service?If he did I am told that there is a bounty land application file at the National Archives which should hold family info.Am planning to have someone search for this for the family.Will to glad to share if anything is forthcoming.Would love to have copies of the pension papers and his papers from the State Archives.Would be glad to compensate for any copying cost and postage.
