Note for: Willem (William) Constable, 24 Nov 1762 - 1836 Index

Christening:
     Date:   5 Dec 1762
     Place:   Kingston, Ulster, NY

Individual Note:
      MARIANNE MCCAFFREY GREENFIELD: The birth records for Cornelius, Petrus and Benjamin are from the Old Dutch Church, Kingston, NY. There are no birth records there for Anthony or Abraham or any daughters. It is my belief that when the Revolutionary War had ended, William and Henrika, with infant Benjamin, moved from Hurley, Ulster County to Milford, Otsego County, New York, probably in 1791. Cornelius and Petrus (Peter) may have died in infancy as there is no further mention of them. There was no vital statistic record keeping mandated in the State of New York until 1883/4. There were no churches to record births, deaths and marriages in the wilderness to which they moved. Many Veterans received “bounty land” from the new American government, in lieu of wages they earned in the Patriot Army. William Constable was listed in the record of the Town of Milford, NY Town Meeting in 1798 as a Pathmaster, or road builder. William, Henrika, Benjamin, Anthony and Abraham moved from Milford to the South half of Lot # 96 of the Rapelje Patent, in what is now the Town of Tompkins, Delaware County, in 1814. Henrika Louw Constable applied for a pension after William died, which is on record at the National Archives, Washington, DC. William was Private in the NYS Troops and was injured in a skirmish between a group of Patriots and a band of Indians and Tories in the dense forest of the Shawngunk Mountains. William and Henrika lived adjacent to Benjamin, Anthony and Abraham in the Town of Tompkins, on the 1820 census.
        LUCILLE DEWEY: "William Constable first came to Delaware Co. in the 1820's. He was a Revolutionary war veteran and was granted a pension while living in the Town of Tompkins in 1833. He lived to be very old and died between 90 and 100 years of age sometime after 1840. He moved to Delaware County with his wife, unknown, and his 3 sons, Benjamin, Anthony and Abram. All of the Constables from Delaware Co. are related to these 3 brothers. Unknown are the daughters - who changed their names when they were married."
