I am adding a War of 1812 sticker to the profile of Elisha Hook. I have found an online source that lists his service: http://usgenealogyexpress.com/~va/rockingham/va_rockingham_1912_Hist_Appendix3.htm
And another source that better explains Captain Matthew's command: http://vagenweb.org/rockingham/1812.htm
I don't know enough about Military structure to understand exactly how this gets categorized. The first source said that he was in Captain Matthew's 116th Regiment at Rockingham, Virginia. But the second source says:
Capt. Daniel Matthews (116)
July 7-September 28, 1813 (McDowell's Flying Camp)
September 29, 1813-January 10, 1814 (4th V.M. - McDowell, Koontz, Chilton)
What is the 4th V.M.? There is no category for the 116th Regiment during the War of 1812, but there is a category for the 4th Regiment. Something doesn't seem right in listing him with the 4th Regiment.
