Notes
He was in Colonial Service prior to the Revolutionary War, 1st Sgt. in Capt.

White Plains Sept. 9, 1776, discharged Aug. 9, 1779, moved to Darksville,
Berkeley Co., WV. Information from "Genealogies of Virginia Families", Vol. 1.

From "Genealogy and Chart of Chenoweth & Cromwell Famalies of Maryland...":
This was under Gen. Dunmore. Became sergeant attached to 4th MD Regt. at White
Plains, NY 9 Sep. 1773, discharged 9 Aug. 1779. The regiment suffered severely
at the Battle of Ft. Washington. He was captured by the British at 1:30 P. M.
16 Nov. 1776 and exchanged soon, to participate in numerous battles.

Also shown in "The Abridged Compendium of American Genealogy, First Families
of America", page 908 and gives a different year of birth to that shown
previously. It also verifies further that he was a soldier in the American
Revolution.

There is conflicting information in that the DAR Lineage Book for #122457 gives
his birth date as 1745 and death date as 1820. The DAR record states that he
entered the army as a sergeant, Maryland Line and was present at White Plains,
Harlem Heights, Germantown, Cowpens, Eutaw, Guilford and Caden. Responsible
for DAR #s 122457, 122225 and 39287. It states that he was born at Baltimore
died at Darksville, VA. DAR #s 138085 and 132859 both state he was born in
Pikesville, MD.

"Genealogy and Chart of the Chenoweth and Cromwell Families of Maryland and
Virginia", by Alex Crawford Chenoweth, 1894 states that John was born about
1728, died 1820, married Hanna Cromwell and his brother Samuel married Hannah's
