Thanks for finding the "Find a Grave Photo". I'll add more sources (including birth record, Rev War, and War of 1812, probate, etc.) later when I get to this family.--GayelKnott 00:45, 14 March 2011 (EDT)

Did his death occur as a result of wikipedia:Second Battle of Sacket's Harbor? --Jrich 08:55, 14 March 2011 (EDT)

That's what it looks like to me, although it's inferential, but I don't see how it could be much else. I'll put the ref on his page. Is he part of your family line? I have a real problem with where his father came from -- it's on my list of problems to be solved, about three down at the moment.--GayelKnott 00:22, 15 March 2011 (EDT)

You mentioned above War of 1812, thought perhaps it might say where he served, or that he died in the service. Just poking around, no relation. Haven't really found anything either, except a few postings of yours on various genealogical forums :-). --Jrich 00:50, 15 March 2011 (EDT)

Some of this stuff is pretty old. A little embarrassing to revisit after all these years. My hope is that with the really incredible changes in access to information in the last few years, plus a few more years experience, I can begin to crack some of the old brick walls. If I can just find the time!--GayelKnott 00:56, 15 March 2011 (EDT)
