Notes for THOMAS FRANCISCO:
Three sources have stated that Thomas prob. moved to New York State in the early 1770s where he served in the Albany County Militia, 14th Regiment. They also state he returned to New Jersey after 10 years. This does sound correct, as his children were baptised in New York. My best guess is that he came back to New York again around 1800 or a little earlier.

Notes for JOHN A. FRANCISCO:
Per e-mail from Chuck Nickels dated April 19, 2000, I received the pension application for John A. Francisco. The e-mail read as follows:
"Here's another bit of text, the pension application of John A. Francisco, complete with references and support from family members. Mentioned are Levi, Cornelius and Michael Francisco, brothers of John A. and with him, sons of John Francisco and grandsons of Henry. Note that John A. was born at Peconnet, as the document reads, New Jersey. Abaham Garrison was a brother-in-law, husband of Jane Francisco. The link between the Dutch Reformed Church in New Jersey and the eastern counties of upstate New York was very strong as is the link between the Franciscos of old New Jersey and the old New York. The younger generations migrated from Albany to Ontario County, portions of which later became Yates County. As differentiated from the Franciscos of Pennsylvania who were descendants from the German immigrant, Franciscus, the Franciscos of New Jersey and the New York seem universally and consistently to be descended from the same French Huguenot/Dutch Reformed stock, sharing the faith of Calvin.

One of the sons of John Francisco and grandsons of Henry Francisco like his grandfather and brothers, Levi and Michael A., John A. fought in the Revolutionary War. His pension claim and related documents were photocopied from microfilm at the Library of Michigan, Lansing, MI, and are here transcribed. They appeared as did all documents of the time in longhand, as written by the judge or his clerk:
"State of New York, Ontario County
.....On this thirteenth day of August in the year eighteen hundred and thirty two personally appeared before me Chester Loomis one of the Judges of the county court of the county of Ontario aforesaid John Francisco, a resident of the town of Gorham in the said county and stated aged eighty three years who being first duly sworn according to the law doth on his oath make the following declaration in order to obtain the benefit of the act of Congress passed June 7, 1832.
.....That he entered the service of the United States under the following named officers and served herein stated.
.....In the months of September and October of the year 1776 he marched to Fort Edward in the State of New York, from Schaghticoke District then in the county of Albany in the same State in a company of Militia of the said State under the command of Captain Henry Vanderhoof, Nathaniel Ford Lieut., and Jacob Hallenbaum, Ensign in Col. John Knickerbocker's regiment of which Daniel Bradt was Lieut. Col. and Derick VanVechten was a major. The said company was engaged on the said expedition about one month and returned. Soon after their return they were again called into Service and marched under the command of the same officers up the Hudson River into the vicinity of the same places to which they had before been called and on such expedition they were again engaged about one month. The said deponent saith that previous to the first expedition above stated he had been appointed a sergeant of the said company and that he served as a soldier in that capacity during both of the expeditions to Fort Edward as above stated and also in all his subsequent services as a soldier until near the close of the War of the Revolution when he was promoted to the rank of Lieutenant in the same company of Militia and received a commission as such.
.....In the year 1777 in the month of May or June the said deponent with the company of Militia to which he belonged as aforesaid were again ordered into service and deponent marched under the same officers and in the same regiment to Lake George in the said state where they joined a part of the army then retreated from Ticonderoga. After serving with the army subsequent to having so joined it about two months, one half of the regiment to which he belonged was dismissed and returned to their homes to cut and secure the harvest then ripe and deponent was dismissed and returned with them.
.....In the autumn of the year 1778 the said deponent with the same company before stated and in a regiment of Militia of the said State then commanded as he believes by Col. Peter Yates, and Major John Groesbeck was again ordered into actual service and marched to Saratoga where deponent was stationed three weeks and the time occupied in the said expedition was more than one month.
.....In the autumn of the year 1779 the said deponent was again called into service with the same company of militia then commanded by Captain Woolsey and Ensign VanderCook, and marched to Fort Edward at which place and at Saratoga deponent did duty. The said deponent further saith that according to his recollection in the early part of the summer of the year 1780 he was again ordered into service with the part of the same company of Militia under Ensign VanderCook and marched to Fort William Henry at the head of Lake George when the company to which deponent belonged joined the detachment of troops under the late Gov. George Clinton. A call was there made for volunteers to cross the lake, and deponent entered as such and was engaged in the said expedition about two months.
.....The deponent further saith that in the years of 1775 and 1776 he was almost constantly engaged in the service of the committees of safety of Schaghticoke District aforesaid and acting under their orders whenever he was not about in actual military service with the army in arresting disaffected persons, and tories, and that as a sergeant under their orders with a file of Militia men under his command, he was actually occupied and engaged in such services almost daily during the summer season of those two years, when not on other military services as herein before stated.
.....He further saith that he was ordered by his said commanding officer, with a number of men placed under his command to guard certain public roads in the county of Albany to prevent Tories and disaffected persons from pillaging and carrying off the property of the inhabitants in the night time and that he was frequently so engaged during the first two years of the Revolutionary War.
.....The said deponent further saith:
1st..That he was born in the town of Peconnet in the county of Morris and state of New Jersey on the third day of July 1749--
2nd..That he has no record of his age except a memorandum thereof in his family Psalm Book.
3rd..That he lived in Schaghticoke District then in the county of Albany and State of New York when he was called into Service as aforesaid- where he continued to reside till about five years since, when he removed to the town of Gorham in the County of Ontario aforesaid where he now resides.
4th..That he uniformly went as a volunteer when in service as aforesaid.
5th..That recollects Gen. P. Schuyler in command of the Army on its retreat from Lake George as before stated.
6th..That he never received any written discharge whatever and that his warrants as a sergeant and his commisson as Lieutenant as aforesaid were lost many years since and he supposes them not to be now in existance (sic) --and that he has no documentary evidence whatever.
7th..That Cornelius Francisco, Levi Francisco, Michael Francisco and Abraham Garrison are persons now living who as he believes are persons to whom he is known who can testify of their knowledge to his said Service and to some part thereof. He further saith that he has long been in feeble health and unable to leave his own house. He hereby relinquishes every claim whatever to a pension or annuity except the present and declares that his name is not on the pension roll of any agency in any state.
