There is quite a bit of misinformation on the various trees on the Internet and at Ancestry regarding the Rev War Service of John Sheffield Sr (1727-1796). John Sr did not serve in the Rev War, his son John Jr did serve. The DAR is no longer accpeting any apps for John Sr as a Rev War soldier.
You can learn more about this using the DAR GRS database located at http://services.dar.org/public/dar_research/search/?tab_id=0. Under the ancestor link search for John Sheffield.
