FYI, I tried FamilySearch's look up service and they are not able to provide eletronic copies.  I have to travel to FSL to see the book.

I came up empty in locating any online sources of this book's info.  The North Carolina state archives will do a lookup but it's $20 for non-residents:  https://ncarchivesstore.com/treasurer-and-comptroller-revolutionary-war-army-accounts/.  Quite a few libraries have this book:  https://worldcat.org/title/21081940.  Have you checked to see if one is near you?  If not, I've had pretty good success in requesting copies of pages of books from various libraries.  Sometimes they want a fee but often they'll do it for free, especially smaller libraries.  Good luck.

Hi Kerry,

Thanks for checking,

I am aware of the fee for NC Archives, and I checked Worldcat.

I was hoping someone on WikiTree might have better access.  

I was just at RootsTech and could have checked FSL myself had I known at the time.

my genealogy budget has been blown on other related research, so I will keep looking alternative methods.
