In April 1781, he volunteered for nine months at Salisbury, Conn., under Captain Sheperd, in Colonel Cortland's New York Reg't, joining it at Fishkill, N.Y. With a part of the regiment, under Lieut. Colonel Weissenfels, he was soon detached and stationed at Saratoga until his enlistment expired. In March, 1782, he enlisted at Lenox for two years, with Captain Posey, or Pearcy, in Colonel Willetts' New York Reg't, which he joined at Albany, thence he marched up the Mohawk river to Fort Hunter. After remaining six weeks, he with a part of the regiment was ordered to Fort Plank and Plain, for the winter, thence in Jan., 1783, he marched west by way of Fort Stanwix, now Rome, N.Y.; then across Lake Oneida, to within about a mile of Oswego, but soon returned to Fort Plain, where he was discharged in June, 1783. Soldiers sent to the above named forts were actively employed in the perilous duty of scouting the surrounding wilderness to protect the frontier settlements from the approach of hostile Indians and tories, with which the central part of New York was every year invaded, in addition to those under Brandt and Johnson. According to the New York archives he was also a fifer in Colonel Whitney's Reg't, under Captain King.
