Colbe was a colonel in the Revolutionary War.
Colbe's last name is incorrectly spelled Chamberlin on his gravestone. He is descended from the Chamberlain family and their last name is always spelled Chamberlain in the sources I've found. It's also spelled correctly on his wife's gravestone.
The only place I've found Colbe's last name spelled Chamberlin (besides the gravestone) is on a military pension file for a man who served under Colbe for a short time during the war.
All other records show it as Chamberlain.
