    Notes:

    I have no idea if Harvey Capps was even related to Littleton Capps and just created a common link under the name "Posible" just to combine these two Capps families for printout. Bob Baker

    Military: Am. Revolution, Second Regiment NC Continental Line. Death was inferred his pension of $80 per annum beginning on 4-Mar-1831 for which he received a total of $240. Therefore, $240/$80 = 3 years before he died. He served six years during the Revolution, was captured in SC, held 18 months, and then was released at Jamestown. He was 5' 9", grey eyes, light brown hair, and fair complexion. William had three sons born before 1810, according to 1800 and 1810 Census records: two sons age 10-16 (William and Henry) and one son under age 10 (Unknown Boy CAPPS).

    Shirley Ann GANDY, a descendent of Littleton through his son Thomas CAPPS, reported to me in July 1999 that her mother had said that she had been told that Littleton's father was a "hero" and that she thought his name was "William." Such a description would aptly fit William (b. 1751) who served in the Revolutionary War. William (b. 1751) does have a son listed in the 1810 census of the right age to have been Littleton, but this boy does not appear in the 1820 census
