Revolutionary War Veterans
Jefferson County, NY
Although Jefferson County, NY was not established until well after the Revolutionary War, veterans of the war were instrumental in the settling of the county. Our intent is to document the final resting place of those patriotic veterans who helped carve the county out of the wilderness.
The service of all of the individuals listed has not been verified. While we have attempted to verify as many as possible, there may be individuals listed who did not serve or whose service is in question. Included with many of the names is a DAR Ancestor Number. This number is not verification of service, but it does indicate that a membership application has been processed by the DAR. It should help in resolving variations in the spelling of surnames.
We
are indebted to the LeRay de Chaumont Chapter NSDAR without whose support the
identification of the graves of those individuals who served in the Revolutionary War would have been lost
forever.
To obtain service information on any of the individuals included in our list, we encourage you to contact the LeRay de Chaumont Chapter NSDAR.
