    Notes:

    Bridget's husband, Colonel Hugh Maxwell, had no advantage of school when he was a child. His father had died suddenly in 1759, his body was found in the road supposed to have been killed by falling from his horse.

    Hugh served in the French War and was in the battle near Lake George in 1755 and in Fort William Henry when it was surrendered to the French in 1756. He was captured by the Indians, but managed to escape.

    Gov. Pownal of Massachusetts appointed him an Ensign in Brigadier Ruggle's Regiment on 31 Mar 1759. At the close of the war in 1759, he returned home to take up his plough and surveyor's instruments.

    In 1773 he moved to Charlemont, Hampshire County, Massachusetts (now Heath, Franklin County, Massachusetts). He was elected a member to the first Provincial Congress which convened at Salem, 7 Oct 1774. When he came home, he helped raise an army and was made Lieutenant. He was promoted to Captain in the regiment of Colonel William Prescott at Cambridge 26 May 1775. He was wounded at Bunker Hill on 17 Jun 1775 when a ball passed through his right shoulder. He was in the operations of Long Island, New York in Aug and Sep 1776 and was in the battles of Trenton and Princeton and Burgoyne. He also saw service at Stillwater and Saratoga.

    Having joined the southern army in Nov, he shared the hardships of Valley Forge and was at the battle of Monmouth in Jun 1778. In 1779 he was appointed to the rank of Major, and remained under the command of Major General William Heath for three years. In Aug 1783 he received a commission as Lieutenant Colonel in the Massachusetts line to take rank 12 Oct 1782. He held this rank to the close of the war. He was honored as a member of the Society of the Cincinnati and the document given to him was signed by H. Knox Sec. and G. Washington, President.

    On 29 Dec 1794, he went to Philadelphia to make a personal application to Congress for a pension as an invalid, but it came to no avail and he returned home with a pocket emptied by the expense of the trip.

    In an effort to make some money for his declining years, he bought some horses, left home in Jul 1799 and sailed from Hartford for the West Indies. He had a good and prosperous voyage, but just three days before his vessel was to arrive in port homeward bound, he was taken with a fever on 14 Oct, died and was buried at sea.
