John Darling, Jr.

John Darling III served in the Revolutionary War as a private in Col. Ephraim Doolittle's regiment in 1775, as did his father (John Darling of this profile) and brother, Jewett. He marched to Quebec under Col. Benedict Arnold, 13 Sept., 1775. In an order dated 8 Nov., 1776, John Darling requested money due for a bounty coat, since he had been taken prisoner. In Jewett Darling's application for a military pension, John Jr. gave a deposition on the 29th of April, 1818, stating that he saw his brother, Jewett, as a prisoner of war at Ft. Washington.
