Service: NY
Rank: Ensign
Birth: 5/18/1748 Albany co, NY

Pension:
Service Source: NY in the Rev 1887, Fernow, PP 273, 274
Service Description: Col Wm B Whiting

[Cliff: I had the death date as 1821, from the cemetery web site.]

From Robin: I just took photos of this stone for Jim the great grandson and the death year appears to be what Bruce Coyne said: 1824. The vertical line on the right of the four is deeper than the rest of the number so it does look like a 1 at first glance.
