    1. [AMERICAN-REVOLUTION] Ezekiel Sampson

    3. Private Ezekiel Samson, Captain Joseph Hooker's Company (my line through Obadiah, Samuel, Samuel, Abraham, Lawrence,, and John) is buried in the Old White Church Graveyard in Cambridge NY. Another Ezekiel Sampson, possibly through Samuel Samson/Hasadiah Eddy (NJ), Samuel (abt 1700-1757)/Rachel Carter (abt 1700-1771) (NJ), Ezekiel Samson (?)/Susannah (most likely not Lurannah) Northrup (a very well documented line) (Orange County, NY), who had at least six kids—Issac, Samuel, Henry, Rachel, George Washington, and Ezekiel, exists. Ezekiel and Henry came to Montgomery County and their ministrey in known. Henry married a Sarah Whitaker from NJ. A Lieutenant Ezekiel Samson served with Colonel Moyan's 4th Light Brigade which was largely organized of 6 troops from PA, MD, VI, NJ, and apparently NY (see below and not Massachusetts). A National Archive Military Record Lieutenant Ezekiel Samson shows him to be a member of Captain Peter Mill's Company who served under Lieutenant Colonel Luther Baldwin (not Juduthan Baldwin) Regiment of Artificers. New York in the Revolution as Colony and State by Roberts indicates that Lt. Ezekiel Samson was with Colonel Moyan's 4th Light Dragoon Unit and Captain Peter Mills is listed as a member of Lieutenant Colonel Luther Baldwin's Regiment Artificer Unit. "The Historical Register of the Continental Army during the Revolutionary War" by Francis Heitman lists Ezekiel Sampson of Baldwin's Artillery Artificer Regiment, 16th August 1777, and the New York War Records show Lt. Ezekiel Sampson in Colonel Moyan's 4th Light Dragoons, Poughkeepsie, 1780. I would appreciate information as to whether Lieutenant Colonel Luther Baldwin's Artillery Artificer Unit served in support of Colonel Moylan's Light Dragoon Unit and any references to the history of Lieutenant Colonel Luther (not Juduthan) Baldwin's Artillery Artificer Unit would be appreciated. Thank you. Fred Samson.
