    Notes:

    Wagman Farm

    In the west part of the town, near Saratoga lake, settlements were made in 1784 or 1785. An interesting item of history is connected with them. On the 7th day of August, 1781, seven men, sent from Canada, came to Albany and in the evening made an attack upon the house of General Schuyler, where he had been residing after the destruction of his buildings at Schuylerville. Their object was to kill or capture the general, either through deadly hate at his past services against the English government, or perhaps with the design of holding the person of the general as a hostage to secure terms in the future exchange of prisoners. There were in the house with the general at the time John Ward and John Cokely, two of his lifeguards, and also John Tubbs, an army-courier in his service. These three men made a gallant fight with the seven assassins, who had effected an entrance into the hall. John Tubbs, as his children now relate it, had a personal struggle with one, and having pressed him down behind an old oaken chest, with his hand on his throat, tried to draw a knife to finish him, but the knife was gone, and Tubbs was obliged to let him up. Meanwhile General Schuyler had, from the windows above, aroused the town, and the seven men suddenly left, carrying off Tubbs and Cokely with them as prisoners, and as proof that they had actually penetrated to Schuyler's house and made an attempt to execute their appointed work. The prisoners were kept nineteen months on an island on the St. Lawrence. Returning home about the time peace was declared, General Schuyler presented the three men with a deed of two hundred and seventy acres of land. The deed is now in the possession of Simon Tubbs, son of John Tubbs, and recites that "In consideration of five shillings, and that John Cokely, John Ward, and John Tubbs, did gallantly defend the said Philip Schuyler when attacked in his own house, near the city of Albany, on the 7th day of August, 1781, by a party of the enemy in the late war, sent expressly to kill or make prisoner of the said Philip Schuyler," the party of the first part hath granted and sold to the said Ward, Cokely, and Tubbs all that tract and parcel of land "In the Saratoga patent, known and distinguished as the westernmost farm of the south half of lot No. 20 in the grand division of Saratoga patent, made by John B. Bleecker, surveyor, in 1750, containing about two hundred and seventy acres of land."

    The land was first divided into three parts, and the men drew for their respective portions, and soon after made their homes in this section. John Tubbs' portion was a part of the present place of Simon Tubbs, his son; John Ward's, the farm occupied until recently by his son; and John Cokely's share is also now owned by Simon Tubbs.

    Johannes Viele, in the year 1789, settled on the place still owned by his descendants, east of Bryant's bridge. His brother, Stephen Viele, about the same time also penetrated this new country, and settled on the present farm of Henry Wagman. Another brother, Ludovicus Viele, is also spoken of as having accompanied them. Jesse Toll, a brother-in-law, also came to Saratoga about the year 1790. He owned at one time an entire grand division of the Saratoga patent, - a tract one mile wide, six miles long. It is understood that he built the mills at Grangerville soon after his arrival.

    Stephen Viele and Sarah Toll must have moved to Saratoga after the Revolutionary War. SV served in 14th regt, Hoosac and Scaghticoke, during the Rev War. Also, the above suggestssettlement did not start near Saratoga Lake until 1781.

    The Fourteenth Regiment was under the command of Col. John Knickerbacker, Col. Peter Yates and Col. John Van Rensselaer.

    The following information is known about Schaghticoke during the Revolution, and the actions of the 14th Regiment. Maj. Derrick VanVechten, an officer in Col. Knickerbocker's 14th Regiment, was posted at Mechanicsville. He and Samuel Acker visited Old Schaghticoke before the Battle of Saratoga on September 19, to observe their fields of grain. While standing on the hill of Jacob Yates's farm, above the Tomhannock Bridge, the Tories and Indians fired a volley of bullets as they retreated towards the Hudson. Major VanVechten fell mortally wounded, with a bullet in his head, beneath the elm tree on the present road below Reynolds Station. He shouted to Acker to take care of himself saying: "You cannot save me". Acker reached the American camp and a detachment of soldiers was sent to bury Maj. VanVechten's body. A band of hostile Tories and Indians held Fort Schaghticoke and several abandoned houses of the settlers as a British outpost. Col. Johannes Knickerbocker's 14th NY Regiment, composed of officers and men from the Dutch Hoosac and Schaghticoke, was slow in marching to the field of action. It is locally reported that he was fourteen days arriving at General Gate's encampment, which he reached October 7th at dusk just as the scene of the second battle of Old Saratoga was closing and in time only to shout exultingly to the fleeing Britons.

    The Tomhannock Road was also guarded by Tories, occupying Abraham Viele's house below Buttermilk Falls. Three officers on horseback advanced to Fort Schaghticoke with messages from General Clinton and Howe to General Burgoyne. They were mistaken for American scouts, and the sharpshooters posted in the Spook Hollow Ravine above Viele's house mortally wounded one of the officers, in front of the Button house, now on the site of Viele's house.(40)
