Connie, I love your CZcams videos about researching family information. I found a lot of information about family history. Thank you for making the videos.

Brick wall. Orphaned german speaking born 1756 in Surry county/stokes NC. Named Eaton because he liked to eat… but real name possibly Valentine, or Van Etten… lots of Revolutionary War affidavits wanting his pension. They didn’t have his name down right on the muster calls (or he didn’t know what name they had him down for) even though he served 4 years. He was bound to Gray Bynum. Had a brother John Valentine who had the family Bible. He ran away to join the war.
He married families who gave the affidavits. Owned part of Suaratown
1/2 our ancestors are English
1/2 German moravians, lutherans
How do we find his real name and his parents?

Connie, my eighth generation grandfather was Thomas Bull, Sr., married to Susannah (possibly Harwell). One of his grandsons was Ambrose Bull, married to Elizabeth Johnson. Ambrose and Elizabeth, along with their children, lived in Bern, Craven County, North Carolina. Our brick wall is trying to locate where in England that Thomas immigrated from (possibly Wilshire) and what ship he sailed upon to arrive at the colonies in 1721. His immigration year was documented in the court records when he and others were mandated to repledge his allegiance to the king.
How do we look for ship records? Knowing from those records could provide a clue to his hometown.
I've been researching since the late 60s and early 70s.

By the way, I was a reporter and editor for a student newspaper while in college. I also wrote for a local newspaper. Later I became a sergeant with a sheriff's office. My research skills helped me with investigations. I studied disciplines of biology, chemistry, physics, criminology, psychology, and sociology. My scientific studies helped with my skills in police work, also.
Later, my wife and I became published authors and ran a publishing business for novice to veteran authors.

Oh, Ambrose and his brother Micajah served in the North Carolina militia during the American Revolution. Ambrose's two sons, James Hogan and Robert served in the War of 1812 (actually the Battle of New Orleans) under the command of Colonel Andrew Jackson.
