I found a Christopher Hogate born in the 1790's in NJ who fought in the War of 1812 according to the Records of the officers and men of NJ. In wars 1791-1815. Trenton, NJ. 1909. (369p.):223 in the American Genealogical-Biographical Index. Sorry, nothing more though. Dave Bates Dare Family Association Historian dave@darefamily.com
