The Jefferson County Genweb page has an biographical entry for Jonathan SOUTH JEFFERSON LIST OF REVOLUTIONARY WAR VETERANS IN JEFFERSON COUNTY[2] S= Veterans taken from South Jeff's booklet, "Revolutionary War Veterans who settled in the Sixtown Area of Southern Jefferson County." We extracted only those names with information not found in our previous files.

Debbie Quick, of the Historical Association of South Jefferson, has graciously allowed us to use information from the booklet, "Revolutionary War Veterans who settled in the Sixtown Area of Southern Jefferson County" which she compiled, to enlarge the Revvet sketches. The most frequent additions are the names of the veterans' children. The material from the Sixtown book is not presented verbatim. Only those portions which do not duplicate material already posted are given, edited so that they make sense when taken with the Fonda and Freedom Fighters sketches.

Jonathan's Revolutionary War service is not detailed. This record may be confused with that of his father, Jonathan.
