"Henry Ingalls (5), son of Ebenezer, b. Rehoboth 1738, in 1761 married Sibyl Carpenter; and about 1764 removed northward across the state to Richmond, in the edge of New Hampshire, and near the Vermont line as finally established."
"_____Henry, Edmund and Benjamin Ingalls appear early in the affairs of Richmond; and Henry had recorded a purchase of land there in 1763. As his second child was born in Rehoboth in 1764, he had evidently been in Richmond previous to removal of his family thither, which seems to have occurred about the fall of 1764; for he participated in Richmond's first town meeting, March, 1765."

"..., and it is apparent that most if not all bearing the name emigrated. Henry Ingalls was town clerk from 1766 to 1792, indicating unusual fitness. He was also Justice of the Peace for a long period. In 1785, a neighborhood in anothe rpart of the town sought the appointment for one of their number, but after a heated contest, Ingals was again appointed. He removed to Worcester, N. Y., about 1808, and died there, 1811.
"_____Immediately after the conflict at Lexington and Concord, on April 19, 1775, troops were enlisted in New Hampshire under Col. Ephraim Doolittle, of which regiment a company was raised in Richmond by Capt. Oliver Capron. Both Henry Ingalls and John Ellis joined Capron's company on May 5th, and Ingalls appears as seargeant and Ellis as private on the muster roll."

"_____In response to the call for troops for the relief of Ticonderoga in 1777, we find Capron's company with Henry Ingalls as lieutenant, and John Ellis as corporal, with James Cook as a private, probably the same Cook who afterward maried Ingalls' eldest daughter. In the battle at Bennington and at Stillwater, Ingalls was lieutenant and Ellis was sergeant, but we do not learn how long was this term of enlistment. In the action at Bennington, August 16, 1777, Ingalls was wounded, though probably not severely. It is stated that the sound of guns was heard distinctly in Richmond, a distance of nearly forty miles."
