Iris wants to know why Zebedee Delano was listed with service in 1775 but not at Valley Forge. There is no point in guessing. Have you looked in _Massachusetts Soldiers and Sailors of the Revolutionary War_? That series really caught almost all of those with Continental, State and Militia service. An entry for him would show whether he was badly wounded, transferred to a different unit, etc. These volumes can be found in major libraries. If he is listed in the DAR Patriot Index then some woman in the past entered DAR under his service. You can write the DAR for the application papers that cost $10. The DAR web site tells you how to do this, or you can go to the DAR query board on Rootsweb under topics/Organizations and Societies, where numerous responses to queries give details on how to get the application papers. Good hunting, Judy

Thanks for information and suggestions everyone. I have a copy of Elizabeth Delano Whiteman, Zebedee Delano DAR approved documentation 1979, that is no longer exceptable. I found Elizabeth Delano Whiteman Paper's, at the Fogler Library, University of Maine, I have ordered most of the papers, I thought I would find something in her papers that would help. But not so far? Another lady was DAR approved in 1929, I don't have a copy of that documentation.
