    1. Washington Gray's
    2. Alfred Beasley
    3. Isaac Revere was born in New York City on 7/27/1795. When he died 8/14/1885 his obituary stated that he served with the Washington Gray's during the War of 1812. I am looking for information about his service record. The 8th NY was created in May 1784. It was given the name Washington Gray's after marching in George's inaugural parade. Sometime after 1809 they became part of the 4th Regiment of Artillery and became the 3rd Regiment of NY State Artillery in 1812. Can anyone tell me if the original outfit retained the name Washington Gray's during this entire period? Also, where is the best place to search for information about this outfit, it's service, it's rosters, etc.? I've had little success on the internet. Al Beasley
