I am a 3x great-grandson of Jesse Prentice, who fought in the Revolutionary War. Jesse came from Thomas the Trooper, Thomas 2nd, then Samuel Prentice Sr. and Jr. of the Stonington Branch. Jesse Prentice's name is misspelled by the DAR as Prentiss. His DAR ancestor number is A092680. You may be able to find information about your Revolutionary War ancestors at fold3.com. If you know their widow's name, look for pension applications. I found over 40 pages of depositions and affidavits regarding Jesse's service filed in 1840 by his widow Elizabeth Belcher Prentice. Jesse does not seem to have been particularly notable, except that the affidavits show that he fought at the Battle of Bunker Hill, the siege of New York, the Battle of Trenton (where Washington crossed the Delaware), and the Battle of Yorktown that ended the Revolutionary War. |
