Westchester County New York Militia
Obituary

February 8th, 1780

Early yesterday morning died of the wounds he received on the 3d instant, in the attack on the rebels near the White-Plains, Captain HAZARD WILCOX, of the Loyal Refugee Volunteers.

Same evening his remains were intered, attended by a numerous acquaintance, who lamented the loss of so brave and valuable a subject.

He left a disconsolate widow and five children, lately escaped from rebel oppression.



[NOTE: This article is in error. Hazard WILCOX served with the Westchester County Militia, not the Loyal Refugee Volunteers.]



The Royal American Gazette, (New York), February 9th, 1780.
