He is listed as a veteran of Col Wemple's Regt. He is also credited as serving as a Private in Colonel Cuyler's regiment in Albany County, New York Militia. I don't know if either or both or correct. I also notice that the DAR referenece (2124) indicates he was born in Guilderland and died in Schenectady which is the opposite of a few other sources claim. There is a colorful story of his arrest and confinement as a Torry sympathiser (in Old Hellerbergh
) prior to his apparent military sevice noted above.7,8,4 He died on 27 January 1790 in Guilderland, Albany, New York, USA, at age 73.4
