Rena:
DAR lists an Asa Starkweather born 25 Nov 1753 in CT, died 11 Jun 1811 in NY, wife Amy Kimball, Pvt from CT.
To answer your obvious question, remember that during the War, Vermont was claimed by New
York and New Hampshire, and people in CT near the "Hampshire Grants" might well be more akin
to those in VT than those more southerly located.
I'm not familiar with the book you cite, but I'll bet it was compiled many long years after the war.
So even though it may look like a long shot, it's better than the alternative.
Best regards,
