Sources?

We need some reliable published sources for this article. If the claims made for him in this article are true, he's clearly a notable figure, so it should be possible to come up with some sources. According to Heitman's Historical Record of Officers in the Continental Army, a Robert Love served in the Virginia militia as a lieutenant. (link) If this is the same guy, then he probably became a militia colonel after the Revolutionary War, as he was probably too young to be a colonel in the war, being only 15 when the war began. —Kevin Myers 19:31, 3 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I've found a source for article, perhaps the source used by the original editor. There's a link to it via Google Books in case anyone wants to use it to expand the article further. There seem to be some minor errors in the details of the book, but it will do for now. —Kevin Myers 20:59, 3 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
