Alpheus Baker War of 1812 Rejected Pension
History of the Town of Cornwall, Vermont: * pg. 343-345: In September 1814 a British force 14000 strong invaded Plattsburg, New York. Alpheus joined a company from Brandon commanded by Captain Michael/Micha Brown, which marched to Plattsburg in response. They witnessed a naval battle on Lake Champlain, which the British lost. They then encountered a British land regiment, which fired a volley, then retreated. The Americans had only 2 casualties. His 1879 request for pension was rejected because it was determined that his unit saw no combat.Matches 1 to 2 of 2 » Descriptive View » Slide Show
