Notes: Data on Arletta is from DAR. - Yes, I know he would have been 60! He must've been quite a man. He didn't begin to draw his pension until 1823 at the age of 76. He moved from New York to Bradford County, PA in 1827 presumably to be near his son, John. He died in 1839 at the age of 81! Solomon must've had a wife prior to marrying Chloa Couch too. In order to have been child bearing age they could not have had their first child together until about 1800. By that time Solomon would have been 42. It doesn't make sense that he wouldn't have married and had children prior to 1800. Meg came across the name Jemima as Solomon's wife in a pension record which is why her name is listed above. Another interesting note is that there is no Chloe Couch buried next to him in the cemetery - Where is she I wonder? Did she die before he did? Maybe the 1830 and 1840 census will tell us.
From Heverly's Pioneer and Patriot Families pages 259-260 it states Solomon was native of Connecticut, lived after the war in Canandaigua NY and moved to Athens in the 1820's . His daughter Cynthia moved out West - no mention of her husbands name. His son John is listed as living in Corning and is said to be the only known case of a father being in the war of 1776 and having a son who fought in the Civil War of 1861-1865.
