John Macomber was born on 26 Dec 1734 in Dartmouth, Bristol Co., MA to William J. Macomber and Lydia Tripp. John Macomber married Mary Brownell Davol probably around 1759 as the first of their children were born the next year. He served in the Revolutionary War on the Massachusetts line. You might say that John Macomber lived during possibly one of the most important time periods of United States history in possibly one of the most active historical locations. His ancestors had been among the earliest settlers in America, from the Macombers in the early 1600's in Massachusetts or the Tripps in Rhode Island. After the Revolutionary War, John Macomber is still recorded in Massachusetts in the first national census of 1790. However, a short time later, he left Massachusetts for New York State. John Macomber died at the family farm in Dutchess Co., NY on 13 Apr 1802, living just nine days longer than his wife.
