    3. List, Does anyone know the location of the Vermont militia activity listed in the service below? Or would anyone know how I might go about finding out the location of the activity (such as "Defense of Frontiers in Alarms...")? I think the men in the companies mentioned below came from Rupert, VT. Arestus MUNSON 1779 APR 12 - JUN 21 Capt Tehan Noble's Co. of Militia Erastus MUNSEL 1780 APR 24 - JUN 18 Capt. Tehan Noble's Co of Militia, Col. Warren's Rgt in defense of the Northern Frontiers Erastus MONSEL 1781 sometime between JAN 12 and MAY Capt. Underhill's Co, Col. Ira Allen's Rgt. Defense of Frontiers in Alarms commencing the 12th Erastus MUNSON 1781 beginning of campaign to 30th of JUN (sometime in that range) Capt. James Blakeslee's Co. Erastus MUNSON 1781 JUL 1 - NOV 25 Capt. James Blakeslee's Co. in Col. Fletcher's Bat. and Gen. Enos' Brig. Erastus MONSEL 1782 (no date) Capt. John Gray's Co. of Foot, Col. Ira Allen's Rgt. I am researching this ancestor and have compiled these service records from the Goodrich book of Vermont Revolutionary muster rolls and the Fisher and Fisher book. I believe Erastus MUNSON and Erastus MUNSEL are the same individual (I am researching Erastus MUNSEL). I have checked the URL of the Revolutionary War battle list, and I don't see anything there that might correspond to the above, so these militia soldiers must have been involved in activity other than "battle" (am guessing here, as I am not a Rev War scholar...). Thanks in advance for any help! Cordah Robinson Bloomington, IN
