Hi, there were Longs from Northampton that went to Monroe. William Long, son of William and Mary (Armstrong) Long, born Oct 10, 1810, both natives of Northampton Co, and grandson of John Long who was an officer in the Rev. War also a native of Northampton county. He served with his son Peter in the War of 1812. Peter Long participated in the battle of Lundy's Lane, and there seriously wounded, a ball striking him in the forehead. He was thought to be killed, one of the soldiers remarking that the best man in the Regt., was gone. On coming to he crawled on his hand and knees to a long pile of rails, behind which he hid himself for a long time. When he emerged from his hiding place he was seen by a British Officer, and on asking for quater he was promised protection and an escort to camp if he would surrender. On the way to camp the officer asked for his name, and what part he came from. Finding his name was Long, he asked him if he had any brothers, and what their names were, on receiving the information said; Do you know we are brothers?" The ball did not penetrate his skull, passing between the skin and bone to back of the head, and he carried it a number of years, finally going to a hospital and having it removed. John Long, the grandfather, had the following; John, who went to Canada and died unmarried; William; Daniel, of Northampton county, then moved to Wilkesbarre, where he died leaving a family; Henry, who was killed by the Indians; Abram, who married and lived in Northampton county; Katie who married a Mr. Rundels of Wayne County; Sallie who married James Goodwin; Peggy married Thomas Bush and settled in Paradise, Monroe county; Betsy, who married William Staples, settled in Stroud township; Peter; Joseph, the brother he met a Lundy's Lane, who had early gone to Canada. Is this the family? There so many Long-Lang faimlies is isn't funny. Best Wishes, Geri
