I came across this interesting article about an 1864 effort to interview the final 6 survivors of the American Revolution. All of them >100 years old at the time...

Worth a few minutes when you get a chance.

Most fascinating to me was the story of Mr. Milliner, who was only 6 years old when the Declaration was signed. He served under General Washington as a "Drummer Boy".

Interesting link,
thanks,
