    "Thomas (North). During the French and Indian Wars, at the alarm for Fort William Henry in August, 1757, rode horses from Canaan for Capt. Uriah Stevens of that town. In 1760 he served with the rank of sergeant, from April 6 to Sept. 4 in Capt. John Sumner's Company, Gen. Lyman's Regiment, which participated in the capture of Montreal under General Amherst. In 1761 served from April 10 to Sept. 1 under Capt. Joseph Canfield of New Milford. Was drowned later during the wars, at the age of 19."

    One wonders if he could really have accomplished all of the above prior to the age of 20.
