<p>[QUOTE="Ladybranch, post: 88066, member: 44"]Delighted you got the additional info. I haven't had much luck on Capt. John Campbell in VT either. I did find the mention of a Eli Wait at the age of 19 who in 1814 served in the "Corning's detachment of the Vermont Volunteer Militia **and** in Capt. John Campbell's Company of Peck's 4th Regiment." Does't this sound like Corning's detachment and Capt. John Campbell's Company of Peck's 4th Regiment were of 2 different groups or were both under the Vermont Militia??? Baker's info no doubt answer's this question.</p><p><br /></p><p>This is a pdf (Adobe Acrobat formatted file) on the <i>Waite Genealogy</i> website. Scroll down to page 6, "Generation 2", 2nd paragraph:</p><p><a href="http://www.waitegenealogy.org/FGS/jed.pdf" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.waitegenealogy.org/FGS/jed.pdf" rel="nofollow">http://www.waitegenealogy.org/FGS/jed.pdf</a></p><p><br /></p><p>I found listing of 6 men on the pension records (probably the same list Baker found) who served in Corning's detachment - no mention of a Capt.
