Clay Dawson <claydaw yahoo.com>Mechanicsburg, PA USA - Friday, August 27, 2010 at 13:50:11 (EDT) My wife is a Thomas VARTY UE descendant. Son Christopher VARTY received a land grant essentially as the son of a Loyalist. He was too young to have served in the Rev War. Thomas is also mentioned in a century-old short history of Ballston Spa. He was regarded as an enemy as this was from a Rebel point of view. Peter Johnson <johnsonue xplornet.com>Frankford, ON Canada - Saturday, August 21, 2010 at 22:18:38 (EDT) Found in a Varty research book was an exerpt from the Calendar of Historical Manuscripts relating to the American Revolution. On July 14th 1777, Richard Wragg, Alex Patterson, Jacob Snider, THOMAS VARTY, DANIEL DEAN, Henry Ruynon, Joseph Tyler, JOSIAH DEAN, Jacob Scouten, Robert Nicholson , Donald Fraser, John Helmer, Duncan Robertson, Edward Armstrong etc wrote to the Honourable Counsel of Safety of the State of New York now setting at Kingston to be released so that they could attend and harvest their crops as there was nobody to look after them . Thomas Varty had a son Christopher Varty and both men were obtained land as United Empire Loyalists. I am uncertain who the Daniel Dean was.
