Most interesting was a reference that *John "**was an Ensign in the company commanded by Captain Jacob Van Aernam, an uncle of John-* per letter from John Dennis (Image 42) of the Regiment commanded by Col. Phillip P. Schuyler" Here is other info- I tried to document which image each detail was on. Arlene John Van Aernam Junior (Image 32) abt 6 mo older than Jane (Image 59) d.
