Notes
Andreas was held as a possible loyalist in a prison in Springfield, MA. His brothers Johannes and Nicholas were held also. There were a lot of tension over what was happening on Mount Washington, Massachusetts and these three men were considerably angry with both the New York and Massachusetts Bay Colony governors for not being more interested in their plight. Other names from Mount Washington that appear on the list (just to name a few) are Cole, Conklin, Decker (Deeker), Hallenbeck, Kool, Lasher, Pulver, Van Alen, and Vosburgh.
