  1. 1.  William Devin, Jr. was born in 1752 in , Halifax, Virginia, USA; died on 18 Apr 1810 in , Pittsylvania, Virginia, USA.

    Notes:

    William Devin, born 1752 in Pittsylvania Co., Virginia;
    died 28 Apr 1810 in Pittsylvania Co., Virginia; married
    Martha Mitchell 7 Sep 1780 in Pittsylvania Co.,
    Virginia.

    William Devin, Jr. served with Captain Henry Conway's Company of the 14th Virginia Regiment of Foot in the Continental Army. He served three years from January 1777 to February 1780. He enlisted at Pittsylvania County Virginia Courthouse on January 26, 1777 and was discharged in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania on February 4, 1780. He and his brother, Robert, were in the same unit throughout their service. Their unit was at Valley Forge with General Washington during the winter of 1777-1778. William fought in the battles of Brandywine, Germantown, and Monmouth. The records from the National Archives shows Sergeant William Devin, with a variety of name variations, to be listed in the muster and pay rolls of Captain Henry Conway's company for most of the period of December 1776 through March 1779. Then, he was part of Captain Nathan Reid's Company and Lieutenant Colonel Hopkins' Company until November 1779. Finally, William Devin and Robert Devin were assigned to Captain John Overton's Company of Col. Febiger's Detachment, 2nd Brigade until they were discharged. Robert Devin says in his pension application that Captain Henry Conway's company was formed at Smith's Store, then the Pittsylvania County Virginia Court House. The records show that Sergeant William Devin was sick (June, July, and August 1778 muster rolls) and then, on extended furlough in Virginia beginning in September 1778 to April 1779. This could be the time when William Devin had Smallpox that nearly cost him his life.

    William married Martha Mitchell on 7 Sep 1780 in , Pittsylvania, Virginia, USA. Martha was born in 1762; died about 1830. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
