Jesse Lane served in the Revolution as an officer in the Third North Carolina Continentals. (Army Accounts, Vol. 13, Section A. A., page 50, 1782; also page 175, 1793.)

from Joel Lane, Pioneer and Patriot, by Marshall Delancey Haygood. Footnote on pp. 6-7 "In the State Records, Vol. XVI., p. 1101, it appears that a Jesse Lane enlisted for a three years term of service on March 1, 1777, in Captain Jacob Turner's Company, Third North Carolina Continentals. Captain Turner was killed at the Battle of Germantown in the following October. After Jesse's enlistment had expired, he again entered the service; for by reference to the manuscript books, entitles "Army Accounts," in the office of the State Auditor, at Raleigh, Vol. 13, Section A. A., p. 50, will be found the entry: "Allowed Jesse Lane for pay to the first of January, 1780(?) including interest, the first day of August, 1783 ......175, 11. 6." Governor Swain, in the letter presently given, says that Jesse moved to Georgia before this (in 1779), Quoere : Were there two Jesse's, or did Jesse of Wake send his family to Georgia, and follow them later?"

This is a great profile with a lot of information, but it's hard to read. And hard to figure out which facts are from which sources. Is there a better way to format?
