John Wolford lived in the house where we can still see the remaining fire chimney standing. I would pass this house near Red Creek, WV on the way to Jenningston in the mid-’70’s.

Facts about John Wolford
1079I was looking through our archives for any hints about my ancestors in New Jersey.

I know, through John Wolford's pension interview, that John most likey lived in Sussex County during the Revolution. In May 1777, he stated he went with Capt John Pipenger, under Col. Jacob West, to guard the Sussex Court House.  He went out again in Sept 1777 under Capt. John Pipenger and Capt John Potty.  March 1778, he went with Capt John Winter, under Col. Jacob West, to Elizabethtown. In summer of 1779, he went out with Capt. John Pippenger, under Col. West, to Hacket's Town and north western wilderness area. In September 1779, he went out with Capt. John Pippenger, under Col. West to the Blue mountains and up the Delaware River to near the York line and under Major Westbrooks. In September 1780, he went out with Capt John Pippenger, under Col. West, to Morris Town Total service: About 4 months as a sergeant and 5 months and six days as a private.  

         Something I found while researching.  Was written up by a Diane Wolford.  Interesting information nonetheless.
