Daniel was 12 years old when he entered the Revolution. He was too young to carry a musket, so he was made a wagonboy for Horatio Gates.
Daniel and Abigail were one of the three familys that were the first civilians to move to Harrison, along with the Markle and Richardson familys. Thus, they are pioneer settlers of Vigo County. See History of Vigo County. In 1816, Daniel was appointed the first Superintendent of Otter Creek Township.
