NOTES FOR STEPHEN TROWBRIDGE
Stephen was baptized at Wilton Congregational Church, Fairfield Co,CT on June 22, 1760. He married Isabel Frasier/Fraser on May 10, 1780 atSkenesborough (now Whitehall), NY.
Stephen Trowbridge and his father came to Ballston, NY shortlybefore the Revolutionary War. He became a soldier, served with the GreenMountain Boys under Col. Ethan Allen and General Arnold. He was in MajorJohn Brown's detachment at Quebe
c in 1776. He enlisted again fromBallston, NY Jan. 3, 1777 "for the war in Capt. Wm. McEwns Co., Col. SethWarner's regiment. He became a Sgt. shortly after enlistment and tookpart in battles of Hubbardton, Bennington, Saratoga and Fort George wh
erehe was taken prisoner Oct. 11, 1780. He was exchanged and joined Capt.Samuel Potter's Co. in Col. Heman Swift's 2nd Reg. Conn. line until endof war. Discharged honorably at Highlands, N.Y. June 8, 1783.
In application for pension Stephen says this, "In the year 1777, onthe 2nd of Jan., I was engaged in a Reg. commanded by Col. Seth Warner,for during the war I fought, and served my country faithfully through thewar to the end without any impe
achment through thick and thin, cold, wetand dry, sometimes half naked and half starved. Often glad to get rawhides to sew on our feet in cold winter weather to keep from freezing.When on duty or sentry, I suffered the fatigues and hardship
s of a longwar, two years captivity, taken at Fort George, on Lake George, and whenexchanged, I, with pleasure, returned to duty again, and served to theend of the war, and got an honourable discharge from Gen. Washington,specifying in it tha
t I was entitled to the badges of honour for myfaithful services to my country, it being six years and seven months;after I got from the war I got married and lived in Salisbury in Conn.but not getting any pay for the last part of the war we al
l had to comehome poor."
His widow in her pension application says, "I was taken prisonerwith my husband and so kept over two years, in the time of theRevolution. My mother was opposed to my marriage; my father dead.Trowbridge stole me away and married me with littl
e form and in haste--mybrother Captain Frasier, belonged to the British army, and my Uncle wasGeneral Frasier, killed at the battle of Saratoga. This Captain Frasierwas in the habit of visiting me and happened to be there when my husbandand I cam
e back after the reconciliation with my mother, which was two orthree weeks after the marriage. The next night Capt. Frasier came withsome men and took us both prisoners and carried us to Montreal. Mr.Trowbridge was a great singer of songs, an
d knew many adapted to thetimes and situation and used to sing them in Montreal, for which he wasfrequently imprisoned, when Capt. Frasier was not there, but as soon ashe found it out he was released through his influence on my account, as Iinsist
ed on and was permitted to share his close confinement."
After the war Stephen engaged in farming. He lived in Salisbury,CT, then removed to Williston, Vermont. While clearing up some land hewas injured by a rolling log and had to give up his farm. He was thenengaged in the mercantile busines
s for several years in Sullivan, NY. Heleft his family in that town and went to Canada where he was in businessfor several years. In 1817 he removed to Berkshire, Vermont for theremainder of his life.
Nothing has been found on Isabella Frasier/Fraser. Searches havebeen done in Schenectady, Washington and Saratoga Counties in New Yorkand they have no record. A search by Alex Fraser of the GlengarryGenealogical Society, Lancaster, Ontario
, Canada produced the followingrecord from St. Andrew's Presbyterian (now United) Church Records inWilliamstown, Ontario:
"Donald Tunbridge, son of Stephen Tunbridge of Cornwall and ofIsabel Fraser his wife, was baptised on the 29th June 1789." (Donald isprobably Daniel, born abt 1787, as listed on the Family Group Sheet).
"Elizabeth Tunbridge, daughter of Stephen Tunbridge of Cornwall andof Isabel Fraser his wife, was baptised on the 29th June 1789."(Elizabeth is probably Betsey, born 1789, as listed on the Family GroupSheet).

Hubbardton is best remembered because of the decisive battle fought thereon July 7, 1777. Gen. Burgoyne's British troops were brought to astandstill by the American forces under Col. Seth Warner, the GreenMountain Boys, Col. Ebenezer Francis
' MA Militia; Col. Nathan Hale's 2ndNH Continental Regiment & Maj. Gen. Arthur St.Clair's rear guard. Thenine families then in town fled.
The Battle of Hubbardton resulted in about 580 casualties. When thesettlers returned, they found the bones of those who fell, still lyingupon the field of battle, bleaching in the sun. They were all buried inone grave, unmarked until the monumen
t was erected in 1859.

ETHAN ALLEN (1738-1789)
American Revolutionary, born in Litchfield, Connecticut.
Allen spent a considerable portion of his life in the effortto achieve independence for what is now Vermont, commanding (1770-1775)an irregular force called the Green Mountain Boys, so named in defianceof the New York threat to drive Ve
rmont settlers off the fields and "intothe Green Mountains." The "Yorkers" at one point put a bounty of 60pounds on Allen's head, to which he responded by offering his own of 25pounds on any of the officials involved.
At the outbreak of the War of Independence (1775-1783) he ledthe expedition that captured Fort Ticonderoga in the first colonialvictory of the war (that he and the Boys basically knocked on the door,walked in and took over notwithstandi
ng). He would soon thereafterattempt a badly planned, badly executed assault on Montreal which wouldresult in his being imprisoned by the British and thus removed fromfurther participation in the Revolution.
After the War, he continued the campaign for Vermontstatehood, a goal which was not to be achieved during his lifetime.
Allen was no military genius, rather an overbearing,loud-mouthed braggart. He was also a staunch patriot who apparently didnot know the meaning of fear. More importantly, he had the loyalty of theGreen Mountain Boys, as unruly a bunc
h of roughnecks as any in history.He could control them better than anyone else, and they would follow himanywhere. George Washington would write of Allen, "There is an originalsomething about him that commands attention."
The Reverend Nathan Perkins, on the other hand, wrote in hisdiary, "Arrived at Onion River falls (present-day Winooski) and passed byEthan Allyn's grave. An awful infidel, one of Ye wickedest Men Yt everwalked this guilty globe. I stopp
ed and looked at his grave with a pioushorror." A grain of salt might be in order: Perkins had quite a bit tosay about Vermont and Vermonters during and after brief visits.
For all his faults, and despite his having done but onesignificant thing in the Revolution, Vermonters are proud of him; hisvery name evokes the essence of independance.
History records Ethan Allen as having demanded he surrenderof Fort Ticonderoga "in the name of the Great Jehovah and the ContinentalCongress".
According to historian and folklorist B.A.Botkin, one IsraelHarris was present at the time, and later told his grandson (the lateProfessor James D. Butler of Madison, Wisconsin) that Allen's actualwords were "Come out of there, you go
ddam old rat
"

SETH WARNER (1743-1784)
American Revolutionary soldier, born in Roxbury, Connecticut.
He came to Bennington in 1765, a skilled botanist (despiteonly a common-school education) and ardent huntsman. The lifestyle suitedhim, and these pursuits won out over farming.
He was elected Captain of the local regiment of the GreenMountain Boys, formed to resist New York authority over Vermont. Thoughhe lived outside the settlement of Bennington only a mile from the NewYork line, the Yorkers never succeede
d in capturing him despite numerousindictments and generous rewards offered.
His bravery and military capacity were highly respected in theContinental army.
During the 1775 invasion of Canada, the 300 men under Warner'scommand repulsed Carlton's force of 800 when they tried to join McLean tobreak the siege of Montreal.
In July, 1777, as the Constitutional meeting was being held inWindsor, Warner was ordered to abandon Ticonderoga and commanded the rearguard which fought a splendid, well-planned battle at Hubbardton, andwhich nearly won the battle ha
d British reinforcements not arrived.
Warner aided John Stark in planning the Battle of Benningtonand participated gallantly. Later, at Lake George Landing, he capturedthe vessels in which General Burgoyne would have escaped.
Never much of a businessman, he did not participate in theland speculation which made many of the early Vermont leaders wealthy.The proprietors of several towns voted him land as a reward for hisservices, but most of that property wen
t to pay taxes; he neverbenefitted from it. Neglect of his affairs during his military career sodepleted his resources that, as he neared death, his wife was forced toapply to Congress for charity, though it was hardly in a position at thetim
e to grant anything.
He returned to Roxbury in 1784, and died that year on December26. Long bed-ridden, he was gripped by fits of insanity before he died.

~~~~~~~~
JOHN STARK (1728-1822)
Born in Londonderry, New Hampshire. Although he was a farmerlike his father, it has often been said that his career was unequaled inAmerican military history.
He saw service with Rogers' Rangers in the last of the Frenchand Indian Wars; as a colonel led a force of largely untrained men atBunker Hill and further distinguished himself at Trenton and Princeton.
He had resigned his commission in protest of the ContinentalCongress promoting men of less experience over him and had returned tohis farm in New Hampshire when Vermont, unable to get help from the sameCongress, sounded the alarm ove
r Burgoyne's march down the Hudson valley.He gathered what troops he could, joining Seth Warner and the VermontMilitia under just before the Hessians and British moved into theBennington area.
Stark is reputed to have encouraged his men by saying of theBritish just before the Battle of Bennington, "There are the Red Coats,and they are ours, or this night Molly Stark sleeps a widow", anindication of his willingness to figh
t to the death.
It was raining when Thomas Allen ("The Fighting Parson" fromBerkshire, Massachusetts) and his men arrived at General Stark'scampground before the fight at Bennington, and the General proposed theywait for the rain to stop before they en
gaged the British. The ReverendAllen protested the delay, saying that he and his men had been called outmany times but had never been allowed to fight the British. General Starkis quoted as saying "If the Lord should once more give us sunshine an
d Ido not give you enough fighting, I will never ask you to come out again."The sun did break through and the British were soundly beaten by theassembled farmers from Vermont, New Hampshire and Massachusetts.
A tardily grateful Continental Congress raised Stark's rank toBrigadier General two months after Bennington. He retired in 1783 withthe rank of Major General. Thirty-two years after the battle, he wasasked to speak at an anniversary cel
ebration and was unable to attend, sohe wrote this sentiment to be read: "Live free or die. Death is not theworst of evils." The first four words of his message were later adoptedas New Hampshire's official motto.
He was a member of the court martial which condemned JohnAndr‚ (the British soldier who negotiated with Benedict Arnold thebetrayal of West Point).
