Family Tree Magazine had an excellent article about how to “Find Your Revolutionary Roots” in their July/August 2019 issue. The article was written by Shelley Bishop, a professional genealogist and member of the Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR). She gives some excellent resources and ideas in the article, based in part on her experience researching her own American Patriot.
I subscribe to the paper hard copy edition, but the magazine is available as a digital edition online.
