Simmons Informs Davis that the Muster Rolls Indicate Ray and John Followell Never Rendered Service
Description
Simmons informs Mr. Davis that there is no evidence that Messrs. Ray and John Followell participated in General Scott's expedition of 1794. The muster rolls outweigh any certificates that may be provided, and thus Simmons cannot satisfy any claim made for services rendered by these two men.
