Mary-Gene et al, My bad. I should have said no British or American Bunkers fought in the Battle of Bunker Hill. gil -----Original Message----- From: Mary Gene Page [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Wednesday, January 07, 2015 8:37 AM To: 'Gil Bunker'; [email protected]; 'Bette Bunker Richards' Subject: RE: [BUNKER] Bunkers in the Revolution Gil, on our line (Devon, which I don't have available right now) didn't one of the Bunkers from the Isle off Desert something hide his ship from the British, for which he has been called a member of the Revolution? (My memory is not working right now - I just woke up after a bad night.) He didn't "fight" as such, but he qualifies.

I just saw an application for membership in Sons of the Revolution where the applicant stated he was the great-grandson of Peter Bunker and Peggy and that Peter Bunker of Charlestown was present at the Battle of Bunker Hill and siege of Boston. As far as I know no Bunker served at the Battle of Bunker Hill. Benjamin Chamberlain Bunker had died in 1774, a year before the battle named for the land he owned. His only son was born in 1771. No one named Bunker from Charlestown was old enough or alive to serve at the battle. There were no Peter Bunkers in the Charlestown branch of the family and no Peter Bunker served in the Revolution as far as I know although Gil might have one in his database.
