Hi, I am also from this area. I hope you can help me with something--David "Stiff" Costner b.1774 is thought to be Thomas Costner -Adams son -offspring ,but I cant find any records showing this. When Thomas applied for a pension ,David wasnt listed as one of his sons, do you have any info? I have a web page with the files I have ,if you would like, check it out and we can compare notes.
