GeneJ,
Thank you very much for the quotations and citations.The pension files really have some wonderful material.
I take it you mean Capt. Henry Dearborn's Co., 1st NH.According to Heitman he was formally exchanged in March, 1777, and promptly promoted to Major, joining the 3rd NH.
I think I remember his Company mentioned in the list I pointed you to.
Looks to me like the papers for the 1st NH Battn. for 1776 are very skimpy (Roll 43 of Micropubn 246).
I wish you success!
