General Notes: Husband - Daniel Lane


He was born at Killingworth, Connecticut; married; removed to Wolcott in 1773.

According to a certificate of the adjutant-general of Connecticut, July 13, 1807, Daniel Lane, private, enlisted July 17, 1780, and was discharged December 14, 1780; as found in return of levies that served in 1780, in Colonel Samuel B. Webb's regiment. According to Hon. Henry Clay Evans, United States Commissioner of Pensions, in answer to inquiry, March 4, 1898, Daniel Lane, then of Suffield, aged seventy-nine years, applied for a pension August 9, 1832. This claim was allowed for fourteen months actual service, part of which was in Captain Hanchett's company of the regiment of Colonel Wyllys. He enlisted at Roxbury, but in Connecticut service. It is not shown that Daniel, of Suffield, was or was not a descendant of Robert and Sarah, but quite enough is shown to make it clear that there were at least two Daniels in the field; and that he of Wolcott was not in his ninety-sixth year the pensioner of 1832, while the service of him of Suffield did not include the service of 1780 to which the Adjutant-General's certificate refers.

In 1795 Daniel Lane joined Sarah, his wife, with her mother, brothers, and sisters, in selling land, formerly part of the estate of Amos Seward; and in 1796 he sold land to his son, Asahel. These facts derived from the land records at Waterbury make it certain that the entry in the Wolcott record of death of Daniel Lane in 1794 refers to the elder Daniel. In 1798 he urged his youngest son, Daniel 3rd, to remove with him to Whitestown, New York, as the latter long afterward told his grandchildren at Plymouth, Connecticut. It seems quite certain that Daniel 2nd made this change about the year 1798, part of the Seward family having previously settled there; he died before 1804. The relations between his second wife and her step-children may have been dropped at Daniel's death, though she survived him by some years.
