Individual Notes
• I think the author of the Hurlbut Genealogy was correct in assuming that Moses, Jr. was born 1748 or 1749. Moses and Abraham were minors old enough to choose their guardian.1483, p 11-a
• He is said to have been a loyalist during the Revolution and lost his property by his adherence to the crown. He was probably the Moses Hurlbut, who m. in Roxbury, Ct., 27 Mar. 1771, Patience Hurlbut, but whose daughter I have not learned. He removed to Vermont not long after his marriage and lived in the town of Arlington, but before or soon after the close of the Rev. he settled in Canada upon the St. Lawrence River, not far from Prescott. He is believed to have d. about the year 1816.1472, p 109
• Moses Hurlbut was an active Loyalist, was a spy, a prisoner, an escapee and finally a refugee to Prescott.1333, p 8
• Annis Nettleton’s other grandfather had an extensive record as a Loyalist soldier. Moses Hurlbut, Jr., of Arlington, Vermont, fought in a couple of battles, did some spying, was a prisoner of war, an escapee, and finally a refugee in Canada.1346, p 2
• Evidence on the Claim of Moses Hurlburt, late of Charlotte County, N. York Province.
Capt. Justus Sherwood sworn:
Says that Claimt is in distress at Oswaigatchi & his Wife is at the point of death & he is unable to leave her.
In 1776 Claimt gave Mr. Sherwood intelligence friendly to Gt. Britain. In 1777 he joined Gen. Burgoyne’s Army, but did not come to Canada until 1778, when he joined Major Rogers Rangers & served in that Corps the War.
Before the war he lived on Lake Champlain in Vermont, and lived on some Land of Coll. Allens. He had little stock.1484
• Moses Hulburt late of Charlotte County [NY - included part of Vermont] took up arms and served faithfully 6 years and 7 months. Entered His Majesty’s service July 1777 at the Battle of Hubbardton; -- after that battle was sent by General Fraser’s order from Hubberton to pilot some savages to Otter Creek to discover the retreat of the Rebel army. Took two prisoners and returned with intelligence and Prisoners to General Fraser at the Camp. After that was sent by General Fraser to carry letters to Castleton and further went on the expedition to Bennington; after that was taken prisoner when he lay in Bennington goal [jail] and was on Parole almost two years, but their barbarous usage caused him to break his Parole and fly to Canada where he joined Major Rogers and served the remainder of said time. 1782 he went on Secret Service under the command of Captain Pritchard, but falling in with a Party of Rebels took them and returned to St. Johns.
Justus Sherwood says claimant is in distress at Oswegatchie [Ogdensburgh, NY/Prescott, Ont. area] and his wife is at the point of death, and he is unable to leave her (to present the claim in person) etc.1339, p 11 See also1484, pp 469-70
• On Town Plot Register, New Oswegatchie, 1786.1403, p 11
• United Empire Loyalists list: Residence, E. District; Soldier King’s Rangers. P. L. Roll.1427, p 197
• Name spelled “Hurlburt” after 1790.1483, p 12-c
• Nice to see the Hurlbut lineage you have online. However, I believe Elias Hurlbut was the older brother of Heman, Luman, Moses and Deborah. Elias was born in Lanesboro, Mass. His parents had been going to Vermont. But because of pregnancy and it being winter, I believe they stayed with family of Hurlbut who were residing in Lanesboro. Remember, they were married in March of 1771. Heman wasn't along until 1773. It makes circumstantial sense.
