AMERICAN REVOLUTIONARY WAR PATRIOT
served in the New York 1st regiment
There are 2 David Browns with a connection to Stonington CT with slightly different birth dates and it has resulted in confusion. Pension records clarify what information goes with which.
This David Brown buried in Camden has pension #18,642 which gives his birth date as 2 Jul 1758 so this matches perfectly the Stonington CT birth record for James Brown and Abigail Utley son David. His pension says he married Rachel Smith 17 MAY 1780 Bennington VT with the following children. His wife’s portion of the pension lists his death date and location as Camden NY.
Diantha Brown b, 11 SEP 1780
David Brown b. 30 OCT 1782
Marella Brown b. 27 MAY 1785
Abigail Brown b. 15 MAY 1787
Sally Brown b. 27 APR 1789
Cynthia Brown b. 18 AUG 1791
Smith Brown b. 21 NOV 1793 d. 25 AUG 1796
James Harvey Brown b. 26 JUL 1798
Elizabeth Brown b. 4 SEP 1800
Polly Brown b. 28 DEC 1801
Smith Brown b. 18 DEC 1802 m. 4 JAN 1824 Oneida, NY Loretta Humeston
Hiram Brown b. 11 MAY 1804
Prudence Brown b. 18 JAN 1806
He served in the NY 1st Regiment for 3 years and ended up a Sargent. There is a lot of detail on his service and it is repeated when his wife gets her widow pension.
The David Brown who served in the militia in CT and married Lydia in Stonington was born on 1757 of unknown parents and location (pension and gravestone). A Son of the Revolution application decades ago merged the 2 David Browns together. Their pension records clarify things.. So the bronze marker detail is inaccurate but this David brown served 3 years in state of NY.
