BIOGRAPHICAL MATERIAL:
REVOLUTIONARY WAR SERVICE RECORDS
Extracted by: Rex "B" Lindsay from the Library of Congress, Washington, DC.
Thomas Lindsay, the grandfather of William Buckminster Lindsay, served in the 2nd Dracut Company. He was returned home by the town selectmen of Dracut "as having done more than then ratable proportion of service in the war based upon an average made in 1777." Three of Thomas Lindsay's sons served in the Revolutionary War. They were Ephraim Lindsay, who was the father of William Buckminster Lindsay, Sr., Thomas Lindsay (Jr.), and David Lindsay. David continued in the miliatry service until he reached the rank of Captain. Lois Lindsay Anderson, Byron, Wyoming, found in her research that the town of Guildhall, Essex, Vermont, had a headstone placed on David Lindsay's grave at his death because of the honor and esteem they had for him. David served part of the time in his father-in-law's, Captain William Varnum's, company.
David's daughter was granted a pension. Pension granted in the 1820s.-- History of William Buckminster Lindsay, Sr., His Ancestors and His
