Biography

1776 Project
Joseph Blauvelt served with 2nd Regiment, Orange County Militia, New York Militia during the American Revolution.

"According to the Blauvelt book there were only two Joseph Blauvelt's in America old enough to fight at the time of the Revolution. Therefore the Joseph Blauvelt must be our ancestor. Furthermore, one of Joseph's brothers fought with this same Militia. [1][2]

Joseph and his first wife were married at Tappan on the 26 Jun 1775 and had children baptized in the Tappan DRC for a time before moving to DRC Schraalenburgh - children baptized there.

After a few years they returned to Tappan and once again made use of that church for their baptisms. Joseph is found in the 1790 Federal Census living in Orange, Orange, NY .[3]

Joseph is shown as the only white male adult over 16 years of age, along with one white male under sixteen , four white females , and two slaves.

Joseph married his second wife on the 9 Jan 1802 in Tappan. Joseph died before the 13 Dec 1817 when his second wife married Isaac Hutchins."[4]

According to the DAR both of the Joseph Blauvelt who fought in the same militia do not match up with your Joseph's birth & death dates so more research needs to be done. check out WT 1776 resources for help.
