Notes about Nathaniel Chesebrough Sr

1.  From Rev. Amos S Chesebrough's notes:

     "On June 24, 1764, he owned the covenant and had his two children baptized.  He was a
     farmer, and on the first call for troops in April, 1775, to resist the British aggressions he
     enlisted in Third Company, Sixth Regiment, under Col. Samuel H Parsons, Connecticut
     troops, as a private; was discharged December 10, 1775; enlisted again in Durkees
     Regiment; was taken prisoner November 16, 1776, on the surrender of Fort Washington,
     New York Island, with 2818 other soldiers, under ___________ Magan. After his return
     home he enlisted a third time in the Fifth Company of the Fourth Battalion of State troops;
     was made Ensign and served under Gen. Spencer in Rhode Island.  He continued in the
     Army until near the close of the war."

     "In the settlement of his estate his heirs, through the mismanagement and bad advise of the
     administrator, Amos Denison, Esq., became involved in a long and expensive lawsuit, which
     so wasted the fine estate that nothing remained to the family but the widows dower.  His
     youngest son, Charles Grandison, never married, but cultivated what was left of the old
     homestead, living with his mother, who died at the age of 87, and his sisters Keturah,
     Prudence and Mary."

2.  Nathaniel served in the Revolutionary War as private from Connecticut.
