In June I will be retracing some of the steps of my GGGG'pa who was in the Sullivan Expedition of 1779 as a member of the 2nd New Jersey Regiment. His task was shown on muster rolls as "Brigade butcher", which puts him also in Maxwell's Brigade. Question: Does that necessarily mean he was one of the cattle herders? Sullivan's Expedition was a scorched earth march into the bread basket of the Tories, British and their Indian allies in retaliation for the 1778 attacks on the frontier. A GGGGG'pa was a victim of the Wyoming Battle or Massacre. I have the National Geographic TOPO! NorthEast and the Terrain Navigator Poconos mapping software upon which I have located the applicable historic markers of NY and PA. OziExplorer handles the few map sheets that are not included in the two major sets. Until June I will be adding points gleaned from 5) Cook, Frederick, Secretary of State, NY, JOURNALS ... EXPEDITION OF MAJOR GENERAL JOHN SULLIVAN ... IN 1779 ...; 1778-1887; (Auburn, NY: Knapp, Peck & Thompson., 1887; Elvin E. Birth. My trip will be to verify locations of the markers and notable points, i.e., field checking. Did I mention sightseeing, visiting, and gaining insight into how home came to be where it is?
