Notes |
- Frederick was active in the military. As a young man in 1758, he served as
Corporal in Captain John Middaugh's Company and was still Corporal in 1767 as
seen in Captain John Middaugh's muster roll of March 2, 1767. Later he served
as sergeant in Captain John Carmack's Company where he probably continued to
serve through the Revolutionary War." Frederick took the oath of allegience in
1777 and was living in Frederick County at that time.
During the war, Frederick was living in the Tom's Creek area of Frederick
County, Maryland, where in 1778 he served as constable. He may have been
living on a portion of the tract called Brooks Discovery on the Rich Land where
Sarah Lewis, his widow who had married a Mr. Lewis, was living in 1790. He mayhave moved to this area about 1770. He bought from Norman Bruce two brown, one
bay, and one sorrel horse, one red cow, and two heifers.
