  2. ↑ Richard's mother's will, written in 1784, notes that "...whereas my said Son Richard Tuff a few years since Enlisted into one of his Majesty's Regiments and it is Presumed and given out that he was killed at Saint Ustatia [sic]...". This was presumably during the British capture of Sint Eustatius in 1781 during the Fourth Anglo-Dutch War.
