After much delay and a re-petition on March 12, 1770, the final grantees were seven British soldiers, Colonel Whiting and six others, who recieved the grant as a reward for their fidelity in the King's service. The township, 36 square miles, thus granted and chartered was named Whitingham. The first census in 1771 reported a population of 14, increasing to 1,177 in 1900 and after some decline increased again to the 1,177 in 1990. http://www.visitvermont.com/about/history/whitingham =============================== Lake Whitingham stretches nearly eight miles long through the town that shares its name. In 1770, the Town of Whitingham was granted to Nathan Whiting and some other men who served as soldiers of the King.

COL. NATHAN5 WHITING (SAMUEL4, JOHN3, WILLIAM2, JOHN1)66,67 was born 4 May 1724 in Windham, CT, and died 9 Apr 1771 in New Haven, CT. He married MARY SALTONSTALL 12 Jul 1750 in New Haven, CT, daughter of ROSWELL SALTONSTALL and MARY HAYNES. She was born May 1728 in Branford, CT, and died 1771 in (Information on Mary's parents extracted from "Genealogical Notes" by Nathaniel Goodwin pg 336). Notes for COL. NATHAN WHITING: The youngest child born of Samuel & Elizabeth, Nathan was born in Windham CT in May 1724 and graduated from Yale College in 1743. Much like his two brothers Nathan served in the defense of the colonies and rose to the rank of Colonel. Nathan moved to New Milford, CT where he resided for most of his life and entered military life shortly after graduating from Yale. Extracts taken from the book "Two Centuries of New Milford 1707-1907" gives a little insight into Nathan and his township. "New Milford was, during most of these first fifty years of its existence, a frontier town, a line of guards was established which reached across the country from Woodbury to the New York boundary, and the members of the company had to take turns in patrolling this line. The second company in New Milford was organized in 1744, and both of these companies continued to exist until the Revolution." In 1744 Nathan commanded the Eleventh Company of the Second Regiment in which they responded to a military crises outside New Milford. The first recorded service of the New Milford men beyond their own borders occurred about 1758. The greatest accumulation of men found on the record is a company raised for the French and Indian War in 1759. It was commanded by Captain Whiting and was known as the "Tenth Company of Colonel David Wooster's Third Regiment of Connecticut Levy." Shortly after this excursion, Nathan was elected as a Colonel of the Second Regiment and saw action outside New Milford in 1759 and 1761. Nathan married Mary Saltonstall in New Haven CT on July 12, 1750. Mary was the daughter of CPT. Roswell Saltonstall, of Branford, Connecticut. Her mother, Mary Haynes, (widow of Elisha Lord,) was the granddaughter of Gov. John Haynes of Hartford. During their 21 years of marriage, Nathan & Mary resided in New Milford and had nine children. Three of those children died as infants. There are conflicting dates concerning their daughter Mary. Majority of the records reviewed has her death listed either in 1761 or 1781, yet she married Elisha Hale in 1782. It is believed Nathan's mother, Elizabeth, moved into their household sometime around 1761/62 and lived with them until her death. After Nathan's death, it is believed Mrs. Mary (Saltonstall) Whiting married Rev. Warham Williams, of Northford, CT., but various records has her death listed for 1771. Children of NATHAN WHITING and MARY SALTONSTALL are: i. MARY6 WHITING, b. 6 Jun 1751, New Milford, CT; m. ELISHA HALE, May 1782; b. 1747, Glastenbury, CT. ii.

John Whiting Birth: 1760 Managed by: Private User Son of Timothy Whiting and Sarah Whiting Husband of Orpha Whiting Father of General Henry WHITING; Julia Whiting; Sophia Whiting; Fabius Whiting; Caroline Lee Hentz, Author and 1 other Brother of Col. Timothy Whiting II ===================================== Judge Whiting was greatly respected, not only for his personal character, but also as a fine scholar and an accomplished gentleman. Fortunately, he was able to give his children the advantage of liberal culture. He sent his eldest son, Thomas, to Harvard College.* Intending that his son William should become a member of the same profession to which his father, grandfather, and great-grandfather had devoted their lives, he also carefully fitted him to enter College. He devoted much time to the instruction of his daughters, not only in polite literature, but in solid learning. The extent of their education, and the refinement of their manners, were not unfrequently the subject of remark. Of Judge Whiting's daughters, the eldest was married to Capt. Barron of the UnitedStates army, and, after his decease, to Judge Strong of Northampton, father of the late Judge Strong.t His daughter Lydia was married to John Mullekin, Esq., of Lexington, father of the late Dr. Mullekin of Dorchester, M.D.; and his daughter Lucy married Dr. Joseph Hunt, M.D., youngest son of Dea. Simon Hunt of Concord. Dr. Hunt was born 1 March, 1749, graduated at Harvard College 1770, died 27 May, 1812, aged 63. He was a physician at Concord and at Dracut, and for several years was secretary of the Massachusetts Medical Society, and was considered an eminent practitioner. It was to him that his nephew, Col. William Whiting of Concord, was principally indebted for his education. * See Catalogue of Graduates, H.C., 1775. t See IV. Savage, Gen. Die., 224. The children of Judge Whiting were all settled in Massachusetts. FIFTH GENERATION. Children of Judge Thomas Whiting of Concord, and Mary Lake: — I. Thomas of Boston, b. 3 October, 1748; graduated at Harvard College, 1775. For several years he taught the grammar school in Concord. He married Martha Jones. Late in life, he became a merchant in Boston, retaining his summer residence in Concord, where he died 28 September, 1820, aged 72. 2. Mary, who was married twice: 1st, to Capt. Barron of the U. S. army; 2d, to Judge Simeon Strong of Northampton, father of the late Judge Strong. 3. Lydia, who married John Mullekin of Lexington, Mass., father of Dr. Mullekin of Dorchester. 4. John Lake, married Olive, daughter of Ross Wyman of Shrewsbury, 1782. She was born 1762. They removed to Lancaster, where he died. Olive returned to Shrewsbury, and died 14 April, 1842, aged 80: issue seven children (see Hist. of Shrewsbury). 5. Lucy, married Dr. Joseph Hunt, M.D., of Concord, Mass., above named. 6. William of Lancaster, b. at Concord, 30 Sept., 1760; d. at Lancaster, 1832. m. June, 1783, Rebecca, dau. of Rev. Josiah Brown of Sterling.* She was b. 17 Jan., 1762; d. 20 Aug., 1848. * Dr. Brown was born in Lexington, Mass., was graduated at Harvard College. His wife was Mary, daughter of Rev. John Prentiss, minister of Lancaster. Sec Willard's Lancaster, pa^c 320. William received his early education in Greek, Latin, and mathematics, in Concord, where, under the eye of his father, Judge Thomas Whiting, and by the instruction of his elder brother, Thomas, who kept the grammar school there, he was fitted for college; but the troubles which grew out of the Revolution, and his father's death, caused him to give up his intention of completing his education at college and of entering one of the learned professions. He had eight children, — four sons and four daughters. Children of Deacon Samuel Whiting of Billerica: — 1. Samuel Esq., b., 8 May, 1730.* 2. Timothy, b. 24 February, 1732; d. 12 July, 1799; lived in Lancaster. He served in the French War of 1755, and on the 19th April, 1775, marched side by side with two of his sons, Timothy and John, in the battle of Concord and Lexington, pursuing the British troops on their retreat to Boston. * Dr. John Samuel Whiting, M.D., of Charlestown, Mass., is a son of the late Dr. Augustus W. (M.D.), who was a son of Deacon Samuel W., who was a son of this Samuel, Esq. 3. Henry (officer in the Revolutionary army). 4. Sabine (officer in the Revolutionary army). SIXTH GENERATION. Children of Timothy Whiting of Lancaster :— 1. Timothy, b. 17 June, 1758; was a captain in the Revolutionary army; lived in Lancaster. He accompanied his father and brother John in the battle of Concord and Lexington, on the 19th April, 1775; d. 13 January, 1826. Had ten children. 2. John, b. 24 February, 1760; was a general in the Revolutionary army; lived in Lancaster; d. 3 September, 1810, at Washington. Had eight children. In a volume edited and published by his son, General Henry Whiting, entitled " Revolutionary Orders of General Washington, preserved by him [General John Whiting, his father], while acting as Adjutant," we extract the following: "Col. John Whiting, of the 5th U. S. Infantry (who died in Washington, Sept. 3, 1810), was adjutant of the second regiment of the Massachusetts line, commanded by Lieut.-Col, commandant E. Sproat. He had preserved most, perhaps all, of the orders which his duty obliged him to record; but only a portion of them were found, some ten years after his death, when the editor first determined to take possession of them, and make a selection for publication at some convenient time." "Col. Whiting," he says, " in 1775, belonged to a ' minute company,' in the town of Billerica, a few miles north of Lexington, and, on the morning of the 19th of April (being then in his 16th year), marched side by side with his father (who had served in the French war of '55), and an elder brother, to the latter place, and shared in the running fight which the British had to maintain in their retreat from Concord. Immediately joining the army at Cambridge, he was under Arnold, on Lake Champlain, in '76, and with Gates's army throughout '77, receiving a commission during the latter year. The remainder of the war, he was with the main army until Washington took the immediate command against Cornwallis in Virginia. He retired to private life at the peace, re-entering the service on the increase of the army, in 1808, as lieut.-colonel of the 4th Infantry." In " Gardner's Dictionary of Officers of the Army of the United States," published in 1860, at New York, (p. 483), we find the following extract from the army registers, showing the various grades of office in the United States army, — he having held the rank of general in the Revolutionary army, and, having afterwards retired, re-entered the same in 1808. "John Whiting (Mass.) Lt.-Col. 4 Infantry, 8 July, 1808; Adjutant and Inspector of the army, 17 July, 1809; Colonel 5 Infantry, 31 December, 1809; .died 3 September, 1810, at Washington." 3.

(See Hist. of Cromwell; Scott's novel " Peveril of the Peak," which refers to his times ; and Shattuck's "Hist. of Concord," p. 364, which gives the genealogy of the Bloods from 1639, when James Blood, brother of John, came to Concord, Mass.) 2.

A., under date of May 29, 1871, writes as follows: — "I send with this the copy of Revolutionary orders of Gen. Washington, collected by the late Gen. Henry Whiting of the U. S. army, to which I invited your attention when I last had the pleasure of seeing you in Washington. Please do me the favor of accepting it. I also enclose the etat de service of Gen, Whiting, also that of his cousin, Lieut.-Col. Levi Whiting, and of his brother, Maj. Fabius Whiting. "I was personally well acquainted with Gen. Henry Whiting, from the year 1832 to the date of his death in 1851. He was a most lovable Christian gentleman, a pure and good man; was pleasant, highly intelligent, interesting and versatile in conversation; was a lover of natural and philosophical science, and had a good degree of accurate special knowledge thereof. He was a brave soldier, with never a word of self-laudation, or any approach to boasting. He performed every duty, in all departments of personal obligation, however unimportant, with exactness, and an undeviating fidelity to an enlightened conscience. He thoroughly guarded the avenues by which temptations to evil might assail, and avoided all practices that might mar the sweet affections of his charming home. As an instance of forethoughtful care in this respect, he would never play any game, not even backgammon, with his wife as an opponent, lest the usually evanescent opposition and strife for victory between them might, by possibility, result in marring the sacred relations, the harmonious oneness, of husband and wife, always beautifully evident in his home. I have written but a short note concerning this honored relative of yours. Please excuse its brevity, as I necessarily write hurriedly, and in the midst of pressing office duties." This letter, by one of the distinguished officers now in service in the regular army, was accompanied by a volume published at New York and London, in 1844, entitled, "Revolutionary Orders of General Washington, issued during the years 1778 to 1782 inclusive , selected from the MSS. of John Whiting, Lieut. and Adjutant of the 2d Regiment, Massachusetts Line, and edited by his son, Henry Whiting, Lieut-Col. U.S.A." The following extract from the army records will show the dates and the causes of promotion of this gallant soldier: — "Henry Whiting, Mass., Cornet Light Dragoons, 20 Oct., 1808; Sec. Lieut.

In addition to his high standing as a citizen and soldier, Gen. Whiting was a man of fine literary tastes, fond of historical research, and, by study and application, had become an excellent scholar." (Of the children of Gen. Henry Whiting are Lieut. Henry Macomb W., U. S. A., and Lieut. William Danforth W., U. S. N.) The other children of Gen. John Whiting, were, — 4. Sophia, d. 1853, s. p. 5. Fabius (Major U. S. A.), d. s. p., 1842. 6.

The Annals of Lynn (p. 275) say, "Caroline Lee Hentz, one of the most esteemed of American prose writers, descended from this venerable minister of the Lynn Church (Rev. Samuel Whiting). She was a daughter of Gen. John Whiting, who did good service in the Revolution, and died at Washington in 1810; and Gen. Henry Whiting, quite distinguished also for his literary attainments, was a brother of hers. She was born at Lancaster, Mass., in 1800, and was married in 1825, at Northampton, to Mr. N. M. Hentz, a French gentleman of education and talents, who was at that time, in connection with George Bancroft the historian, conducting a seminary at Northampton. Soon after marriage they moved to North Carolina, when Mr. Hentz became a professor in the college at Chapel Hill. They afterwards lived at Covington, Ky., then at Cincinnati, and then at Florence, Ala., where they established a flourishing seminary. In 1843 they removed their school to Tuscaloosa, Fla., and afterwards they resided at Columbus. Ga. Mrs. Hentz died at the residence of her son, Dr. Charles A. Hentz, at Mariana, Fla., in 1856; and within a year afterwards her accomplished husband died at the same place.

He arrived at St Louis, as we learn from the Republican of the 17th, on Sunday, the 14th, from a tour of official duty in Texas, being in bis usual health. On Tuesday afternoon, while in his room at the Planter's House, he was, without any premonition whatever, striken dead instantaneously. The cause of his death, in all probability, was an affection of the heart His remains were taken to Jefferson Barracks on the 17th, for interment Gen. Whiting, who was among the oldest officers of the army, was a native of Lancaster, in Massachusetts, a son of Gen. John Whiting, also a native of that place. He was not only an accomplished officer in the department in which he has spent a large portion of his life, but he made extensive scientific and liternry attainments, and was a gentleman of great private worth. In hours stolen from official duties, he was for many years a large contributor to the literature of the country. His articles which from time to time appeared in the North-American Review, were of an eminently practical and useful character, and highly creditable to his scholarship and sound judgment The biographical sketch of the late President Taylor, in a recent number, confined chiefly to his military life, and embracing a graphic description of the extraordinary successes in Mexico, was from Gea Whiting's pen. He published a few years ago an important collection of the General Ordert of Wathington, He was deserving of praise also as a poet and as a dramatic author. ============================ Revolutionary Orders of General Washington, Issued During the Years 1778, '80, '81, and '82 Selected from the Mss. of John Whiting and edited by his son Henry Whiting by Washington, George; Whiting, John compiler Edition: First Edition Book condition: Very Good Book Description New York: Wiley and Putnam, 1844.

| 2513 | [,\ IRAM A. SHELDON has for almost a third ’ \ of a century been engaged in merchandis ing in Burlington, Wis., and is one of its 3') most prominent citizens. He has taken an active part in all of its public affairs, has done much for its npbuildmg and is therefore widely kn_own, needing no especial introduction to its citizens. He was born in Utica, Macomb County Mich., May 13, 1835, and was the second in order of birth in a family ofseven children, four sonsand three daughters, of whom four are yet living. Their parents, Orson and Rose Ann (Lippitt) Sheldon, are mentioned on another page of this work. With them Hiram A. emigrated to Racine Coun ty, Wis., when a lad of seven years, and in Burlington has since made his home. His early education .was acquired in its public schools and supplemented by a year's study in Beloit College, when Dr. Chapin was President of that institution. His business training was received in his fathcr’s mercantile establishment, and since the 21st of April, 1859, with the exception of the years spent in the service of his country, he has been engaged in the hardware business in Burlington. He had closely watched the progress of events in the South prior to 1861, and determined that if the South struck the blow, he would march to the defense of his country. On the 28th of August, 1861, Mr. Sheldon enlisted in the Utley Guards, organized in Burlington, and at the election of the officers of the company, Robert Hill, of the Ellsworth Zouaves, was made Captain, William E. Gibbons, who was a Sergeant in the Mexican War, was chosen First Lieutenant and H. A. Sheldon was elected Second Lieu tenant. The village of Burlington furnished more troops to the country than any other place of its size in the Stats. This company was organized as Company C, First VVisconsin Regiment, under command of Col. John C. Starkweather, who had formerly been Captain of the Light Guards, of Milwaukee. The regiment was ordered to Jeffersonville, Ind., where it was assigned to the Army of the Cumberland and became a part of the Fourteenth Corps under Gen. Thomas. The first order given, which was received October 7, 1861, was to report to Louisville, Ky., to Gen. Sherman. On the 10th of November they moved forward to the mouth of Salt River in Kentucky, and on the 3d of December reached Elizabethtown. Making a forced march of thirty-two miles, they reported to Gen. Negley at Camp Noline, where they were assigned to the Seventh Brigade of the Second Division. ' On the 11th of December they moved on to Bacon Creek, and on the 17th reached Kentucky, where the regiment went into winter quarters. Mr. Sheldon was present at the skirmish at White’s Pike, where the first Union soldier gave up his life for his country. He participated in the battles of the campaign from Pittsburg Landing to (‘orinth, was present at the battle and evacuation of the latter city, and being taken sick in the spring of 1862, was confined in a field hospital for a short time. He was in the campaign against Gen. Bragg through Northern Alabama and Tennessee to Louisville, Ky. On the 6th of August, 1862, Mr. Sheldon was appointed Captain of his company. At the battle of Perryville, Ky., he buried sixteen of his men, and intrying to recover the body of Maj. Schumacher, of the Twenty-fourth Wisconsin, made his way beyond the rebel lines. He participated in the battle of Stone River, which occurred on the last two days of 1862 and the first two day of 1863. At the battle of Chickamauga he led forth thirtyone troops and brought out only ten, which shows what great losses they there endured. Twice during that battle Capt. Sheldon had command of the regiment. He participated in the battles of Resaca, Dalton, Peach Tree Creek, those around Atlanta and the battle of Jonesdoro, Ga., September 4,1864, where the company lost heavily. He also was under fire at the battle of Buzzard’s Roost, Kenesaw Mountain, Mission Ridge, and witnessed the Battle of Lookout Mountain, which by most old veterans is conceded to be the most sublime and = thrilling sight of the late war. It seemed that the guns of the opposing troops were only a few rods apart, and at dawn the thought came that it would be a miracle if the Federalists were not annihilated. Capt. Sheldon was present when Gen. Sherman marched into Marietta, Ga., July 4, 1864. There he had previously taught a military school, and there he had allied himself with the Union cause, at which time its citizens declared he should never again set foot on its streets, but with a victorious army the pavements again resounded to his footfall as he marched at lhe head of a conquering troop. At Jouesboro the regiment was ordered back to Atlanta and there received orders to return i to Milwaukee, Wis.,for muster out, where the captain was honorably discharged at the end of his three year’s term, October 13, 1864. He was always found at his post of duty commanding his company and inspiring them by his words and manner with his own bravery and fearlessness. On his return, Capt. Sheldon again entered his hardware store, which had been carried on all through his absence. On the 28th of February, 1865, he wedded Miss Paulina A. Bristol, a native , of Monroe County, N. Y., and their union was blessed with two children, but the son, Robert H., is now deceased. Mabel L. is a graduate of the Burlington High School, also pursued a course of study in the Northwestern University, and has been educated in music. The mother, who was born October 29, 1842, died September 12, 1888. She also had graduated from the Burlington High School, and was a lady of intelligence and culture. An active and faithful member of the Congregational Church, she served as its organist, and her Christian influence was felt in every company in which she moved. She was greatly beloved by her many friends, who share with the husband and daughter in their great loss. During the war she had always championed the cause of the soldier, and did all in her power to promote their happiness, and when the Luther Crane Post held its first memorial services, after her death, a floral badge, three and one half feet in height, was placed on her tomb, in remembrance of her kindness and generous actions. In political sentiments, Mr. Sheldon was first a Free-soiler. He cast his first Presidential vote for John C. Fremont and from that time has warmly advocated the principles of the Republican party. _ He has never sought oflice for himself, but has aided his friends with his influence. For about ten years he has been a member of the School Board, and for six years has served as its efficient President. Under his administration the schools have advanced in excellence, and his labors have been productive of much good in that direction. Socially he is a ‘ member of Luther Crane Post, No. 201, G. A. B., of which he served as Commander for the first two terms of its existence, and is now Quartermaster. He is also a member of the Knights of Honor; of the Masonic Lodge of Burlington; and of the Temple of Honor, which stamps him as a man of temperance principles. In religious belief he and his daughter are Congregationalists and take an active part in the work of church and Sunday-school. Mr. Sheldon is a member of the Board of Trustees of the church. His success as a merchant has been marked, his war record is one of honor and his honorable, upright life is well worthy of emulation =================================== Hiram A. Sheldon This biography appears on pages 156-157 in "Soldiers' and Citizens' Album of Biographical Record containing personal sketches of Army Men and Citizens Prominent in loyalty to the Union" Published in 1890 Hiram A. Sheldon, Burlington Wis., member of G. A. R. Post No., 201, was born in Utica, Malcomb Co., Mich. May 13, 1835. His parents, Orson and Rose Ann (Lippitt) Sheldon, were both American by birth and of English origin. Mr. Sheldon is one of seven children - four boys and three girls - and four still survive, Julia E. (Mrs. L. W. Conkey), William C., H. Eugene and Mr. Sheldon of this sketch. Orson Sheldon was born in Rupert, Vt., Aug. 12, 1807, and was the son of Chauncey and Lucy (Whitney) Sheldon, the former being a soldier through the whole extent of the war of 1812. Orson Sheldon is the oldest of 10 children and has two sisters living. He resides with his son in Burlington, and, although he is in his 83d year (1889) he still retains undiminished his mental and physical faculties. The family moved from Michigan to Burlington, Wis., in 1842 in the month of December, where the son obtained a good common school education, which he supplemented with a year of study at Beloit College. In 1859 he established his relations to the hardware business at Burlington, which he has since conducted there. Aug. 28, 1861, he joined the Utley Guards, and on the reorganization of the 1st Wisconsin Infantry, was assigned to Company C, with the commission of Second Lieutenant and accompanied the regiment from Camp Scott, Milwaukee, to Jeffersonville, Ind., crossing to Kentucky with the expectation of soon encountering Kirby Smith who was threatening that locality. He went in command of his company to service at West Point, Elizabethtown and Nolansville, performing varied military duty and constructing bridges, meanwhile watching rebel movements, the indications showing threatened trouble on the boarder. Lieutenant Sheldon received promotion to First Lieutenant Feb. 22, 1862, and on the 6th of the following August he was made Captain of Company C. March 8th he fought at "Granny White's Pike," where his company lost their blankets, and through the ensuing summer he assisted in the varied military duty in which his regiments was involved; and was next in action Oct. 8, at Perryville, where he has the satisfaction of assisting in a triumph over the rebels whose strength exceeded that of the Union troops. His regiment was in McCook's Corps and Ransom's Division. His company lost seven men killed and 13 wounded. He was next in heavy action at Stone River, where he was in the several days' action, helped to win another victory and mourned the loss of another considerable number of his men. The regiment was assigned after this action to the 14th Corps which moved southward under Thoams and, en route, was in frequent skirmishing and other military duty. September 19-20 he fought at Chickamauga, going into action with 31 men, of whom 10 answered to their names after the fight was over. But his sorrow was mitigated by the splendid courage they had manifested. The command went to Chattanooga to prepare for a continuation of hostilities, where they performed hard labor and suffered many hardships, resulting from their being almost wholly cut off from supplies. Mr. Sheldon recalls the severities of the preliminary conflicts before Chickamauga in view of the sharpness of those contests and also that at Mission Ridge. When the Atlanta campaign commenced, with his recruited company, he started to connect with the troops of Sherman, fought at Resaca, at Dallas and in several positions in Georgia known as Kenesaw Mountain where its situation was one of the most dangerous. July 20th, through the action at Peach Tree Creek, the regiment was in a similar situation. They remained in the trenches before Atlanta until they went to fight at Jonesboro, where the company again lost heavily; and afterwards returned to Atlanta, and remaining about two weeks, were ordered to Nashville preparatory to proceeding to Milwaukee to be mustered out Oct. 13, 1864, their term having expired. With his military laurels, in which he takes just pride, Captain Sheldon returned to Burlington and resumed the duties of his business and his citizenship. He was married Feb. 28, 1865, to Paulina A. Bristol and they have had two children named Robert H. and Mabel. The son is deceased, his death having occurred Jan. 21, 1877. The daughter is completing a liberal education at the Northwestern University at Evanston, Ill. She is a promising young lady and the light of her father's home. The mother died Sep. 12, 1888. Captain Sheldon was the first man to suggest the feasibility of raising an entire volunteer company for the war, when the Government fixed a recruiting office at Burlington. http://wigenweb.org/racine/military/sheldonh.html | Sheldon, Hiram (I19035)
