About 1998, Judy Phillips wrote the following note:

Three men whose names appear in the Franklin County Court House Minutes as having sworn an affidavit in order to receive a pension could not be found among the pension files.

These three men are James SANDLIN, Samuel COLQUIT and Daniel MUSE.

It is possible that the court determined that these men had not served long enough to qualify for a pension and their application was thus never forwarded to Washington.
