I had one child by my said first husband, the child did a short time before said first husband did.  Said Thomas Crummell according to my best recollection & belief was an enlisted soldier & I think a corporal. I do not remember his officers.  According to my present recollection my said second husband said Doctor Abraham Teller was in the service when my said first husband died.  I was acquainted with him before he left the service.  he as I believe was in Van Cortlandt's Regiment a surgeon or physician therein.  We, said D. Teller and myself were married by Revd Samuel Seabury. My first child by my second husband was a son & baptized by the name of Abraham Teller I think in Unity Church New York.  My said first child is dead.  My second was a Daughter with whom I am now living she first married Doctor George W. Cook & after his death she married Thomas Whitlock.
My said husband Abraham Teller was taken prisoner by the English & take to New York City-- He was taken at or near Tellers Point
