Last date recorded:1840 for military pension checks. John maybe buried in local area.

Comments by Harry Underwood, researcher that lives in that area and wife descends from Martin Granger.

You asked where John Martin Granger is buried? I think JMG born in 1761- your Revolutionary War ancestor that drew a pension while living in Ft Ann - Washington Co. N Y is buried in the Fort Ann cemetery (no stone). I decided that this may be his final resting place as we have never to my knowledge found out where he died. His wife Sarah I know nothing about. I'm basing this on the work I have done up in Ft Ann at the cemetery regarding my wife's ancestors on her father's side, this includes the caretakers and members of the cemetery commission as well as Virginia Parrott the Town. Historian. As far as I know at this time John Martin Granger lived just a short ways from the cemetery. I have heard more than once that the grave diggers have found human bones while digging graves there. They never said but I suspose that they just covered them up and the burial took place on top of them."
