OFFUTT -
I would like to find information regarding the following Offutts. They are all listed in
records as having served in the War of 1812. What I am looking for is additional information on
them, as well as the units they served in. For example if anyone could tell me what county the
unit was mostly recruited in, when the unit served, what battles if any they were involved in, as
well as any person specific information. There were two listings for Eli in the index, I'm unsure
if that was an error, if he mustered out and back in, or there were two Eli's. William Offutt 60
Regt. (Minor's) VA Militia; Nathamil Offutt 55 Regt. (Feb - Mar 1815) VA Militia; Eli Offutt 57
