Marvel Helton Military Service [Ancestry.com- Posted 20 Dec 2011 by modestlacey] Information on Bounty Land Warrants
- Bounty land warrants state Marvel served under Captain Griffin. Agnes transferred the first warrant on 1/2/1854. The warrant was for 80 acres in Jefferson County, Illinois. At that time, 80 acres meant that Marvel had served 4 months, which makes sense since Captain Griffin's group served from January 1814 to May 1814. The second warrant was transferred on 12/1/1859. Agnes must have gotten another 80 acres after the 1855 act made 160 acres the minimum. Interestingly, the second warrant was issued for Nodaway County, Missouri, which where William and Thomas were in 1870. In the early 1850's, the two were living in Hendricks County, Indiana. By 1854, William was living in Iowa. The warrant was transferred to Samuel Powell, who is found in District 10, Hawkins County, Tennessee in 1850. There were some Powells living in Nodaway County in the 1870's.
