I've never found documentation that he was a Colonel in a military service. It is possible and was apparently common practice for State Militias to commissioned lawyers for two primary reasons; Attorney's were educated individuals and normally had an office to use as a messaging and mustering location. If any of my cousins can provide more information, please contact me. Thank You.
