He served three years in the Revolutionary War, including "the storming of Stony Point on the Hudson river in New York on July 10, 1779, when the American forces under General Anthony Wayne, numbering but 1,200 men, not only recaptured the fort from Sir Henry Clinton but took 543 of the British as prisoners; and seventy years after this event, in her old age, she [Rlizaabeth Morris, his widow] applied for and received a pension from the government on account of his services."
