Hi Homer,

I found this while doing research on Timothy Jr, and thought it might be a good addition to Timothy (Senior)'s profile. Before I added it, I thought I'd run it past you.

From ‘’History of the Town of Rockingham Vermont [etc.], CHAPTER XV: Rockingham's part in the Revolution, and in the Organization of Vermont:

During the early years of the American Revolution, “this town exerted a much more powerful influence than has been credited to her. A larger proportion of the citizens were at all times loyal to the new government than in any other town on the east side of the Green mountains. Possibly the proportion was greater than in any town upon either the east or west side. In each vote of Rockingham relating to throwing off the British yoke, rejecting the control of the state of New York, or accepting the constitution of Vermont, only a few scattering votes were ever found that were not in accord with the Liberty party” (201)
The author estimates that by 1775, there were 125-150 male residents “capable of military duty.” He argues that the “different muster and pay rolls, given in various records,” show that about 125 men served on the American side, 90-100%. He lists a number of fierce patriots including “Timothy Clark, John Pulsipher and William Stearns, each of whom took part in the battle of Bunker Hill” (202).<ref name=Rockingham> Hayes, Lyman Simpson. ‘’History of the town of Rockingham Vermont including the Villages of Bellows Falls, Saxtons River, Rockingham, Cambridgeport and Bartonsville 1753-1907 with Family Genealogies.’’ Bellows Falls, Vermont: The Town, 1907.
