William Gardner served as a Ranger at Fort Roberdeau.
William was still living in Warriors Mark in 1830. He had spent most of his life as a farmer. He is listed as being over 70 and under 79. This sets his birth to being in the 1750s. He inhabits the home with another elderly person.
John Tussey lived in the Porter area of Huntingdon County, Pennsylvania. Tussey mountain could very well have been named after this gentleman or his namesake.
In 1778 he is serving at Fort Roberdeau. He continued on in the area, helping in the war effort. In 1781 John Tussey is taxed for his horse, but no other livestock are listed.
His son John B. was born in 1789.
We believe John Tussey lived in the area until his death.
He lived in Bedford, Pennsylvania, for more than 13 years from 1776 until well into the 1800s. He served in Clugag’e Rangers.
Because his property is still inhabited by a Daniel Clark who was born after the Revolutionary War by the mid 1800s we are unsure of when his death occurred.
First serving in the 1st Pennsylvania Regiment under Captain Robert Cluggage, and then later under he and his brother in Clugage’s Rangers, at Fort Roberdeau. James Knight was a Patriot. He had lived in the Bedford-Huntingdon area before the war. The first record we have is in 1774, the final in 1788.
