    In 1800, he is called "of Lee Hatter."

(Letter is dated "Oct. 31, 1845," which would make his death about 1835) "in Eden, State of New York. Know not but that his widow is still liv- ing. They had three daughters and three sons:--Jerusha, Lucretia, Sabrina, Zacheus, Samuel and Jonathan, all living."

The Rev. War Service of Zacheus, follows:
