Ancestors who served in the Revolutionary War

After an episode of Who Do You Think You Are, my husband asked if he had ancestors who served during the Revolutionary War.  A quick search of my Legacy Family Tree database gave a list of men who were the right age.  I limited the list to direct line ancestors. I then searched for those men in the DAR database.  The following information is copied from the results.  Note that most of these men did not actually serve but were involved in other ways.
