Can you help me find Levi Lufkin?
Here is what I have found. There were two Levi Lufkins!!!
Levi Lufkin born 1747 is the one I am looking for information on.
- Found on Rev. War Pension ROll dated 4 Aug 1819, age 72, making birth year 1747, living in Oran County, Vt. Shown to have been on the NH Continental Line.
- He was apparently "of Salisbury: NH.
- He had a daughter named Shuah Lufkin who was born 1773, married Samuel Follansbee in 1793 and died in 1797. Buried in Hill, NH. No mother found.
- Affadavit of Ananiah Bohanan of Chelsea, Roange, VT states that LEvi Lufkin enlisted in Benjamin Ellis 1st NH Regiment C Company and was discharged 1 Jun 1783.
- Enlisted in the NH Continental Army9 Apr 1781 in Salisbury NH for 3 month, discharged 31 Dec 1781. Col. Stickney's regiment.
Levi Lufkin born 1760.
- Died 8 May 1834 in Derby, Orleans, VT
- married Elizabeth Row in Pownelborough, Maine 13 Dec 1785
- Collected pension in Windsor County VT, records transferred from Burlington, VT
- 1830 Rev War Pension, widow's pension Elizabeth 1843 and again in 1849. transferred back to Burlington, VT.
- Apparently owned land in Derby, Vermont.
- Private in company commanded by Capt Benjamin Ellis of 1st NH regiment, commanded by Dearborn for 2 years, joined at Saratoga May 1782, enlisted Nov 1784. On roll of Burlington, VT.
There was a Levi Lufkin living in Warren NH as found on tax inventory and listed with town inhabitants from 1788 to 1807. There was a Levi Lufkin in Warren in the 1790 census, a Lew Lufkin in Thornton, NH in 1800. No Levi Lufkins are found on subsequent census records though they are known to have been living in Vermont (Orleans Co and Orange Co).
I believe that the Levi Lufkin born 1747 is the uncle of the one born 1760 or maybe a cousin. My ancestor is Levi Lufkin born 1747, father of Shuah Lufkin as noted above. I have research this line for many years and have hit a roadblock. Can anyone help me?

The Levi Lufkin who married Thirza Goodridge is not mine as mine had died before 1843.
