You may be interested in some updates/corrections on the Revolutionary Soldiers of Chemung County by Isabel Ridall that you recently put on the site. Some of these are important updates such as James Green who is listed as a pensioner in 1840 and has a death notice in the Elmira Gazette that gives his date of death and age and states that he was a Revolutionary Soldier and the last survivor of the Wyoming Massacre. If you use this information it might be helpful to put the information in a far right column beside each soldier's name. Otherwise, if it is at the bottom someone may go to their ancestor and then not scroll to the bottom to see further information. Just a thought.
The italics information is the correction statement and other information under each name is documentation.

William Carr
William Carr died 14 Jan 1843 (pension) or 14 Jan 1844 83y 8m 6d (marker)
and was buried in the Baptist Church Cemetery or Wisner Park Cemetery and
later moved to Woodlawn Cemetery. He did not die 14 Jan 1814.
He was a private 4th regiment, Orange County, New York and was a substitute
for
brothers, Robert and David. William was allowed a pension 4 Sept 1832
while a resident of Warwick, New York. Removed from Orange County in 1836
to
Southport, Chemung County, New York to be near his children. William
was an 1840 pensioner in Wells Township, Bradford County, Pennsylvania
in the
household of his son, Moses. Pension file 12445.
Joshua Cleeves
According to his death notice in the Elmira Gazette, December 26, 1840,
Joshua Cleeves died on the 24th inst., in this village (Elmira) aged 57
years, 1 month and 24 days, not Nov 23, 1840 age 84 years. His wife Mary
has a marker in Second Street Cemetery died Nov 19, 1841 54 years. It is
assumed he was too young to have served in the Revolution and not the Joshua
Cleeves who served at Brookhaven, Long Island and was among the refugees
in 1776 from Long Island to Connecticut.
