Moved his family to new lands in Georgia.
h/o Lucy (Nancy) CAMPBELL
f/o Moses CASH
John and Lucy Campbell Cash were married in Amherst County VA shortly after John’s service in the Revolutionary War, serving along with his brothers Howard Cash and Peter Cash. John and Lucy had several children born in VA before John and his older brother Howard moved their families to Elbert County GA in the early 1800’s to obtain land granted for their service in the war. John and Lucy remained in Elbert County until around 1830 when John again drew land in the GA lottery that was located in Henry Co. Unfortunately shortly thereafter their home in Henry Co was destroyed by fire and John filed for a federal pension for his service in the war granted through the 1832 Act passed by Congress for Revolutionary Soldiers. While his discharge papers were destroyed in the fire, Lawyer Andrew Moore was successful in obtaining his pension shortly before John’s death. Attached to the memorial is John's affidavit that was submitted to the War Department noting his remembrance of his service.
