He married Anne Onderdonck, daughter of Andros Onder- donck and Sarah Remsen, Sept. 18, 1771. His name is on the list of signers of the Orangetown Resolutions of 1775, but he appears to have taken no very active part in the war. Mr. Wm. N. Gesner was diligent in looking up the main facts of his life, and to him and to Mr. Robt. H. Fenton of Nyack the writer is indebted for most of the following account. "During the first part of the Revolutionary War he resided in a small house in the north end... of the Onderdonck property at Nyack and ran a pettiauger on the River. ' ' His business seems to have been the carrying of stone to Peekskill and other places in New York. In the spring of 1777, Col. Bird with five hundred men was sent by the British commander in New York to destroy the commissary stores at Peekskill and John Gesner was there at the time with his vessel in Annsville Creek. As soon as he learned the object of the British he made an attempt to secure some of the goods by a plea of being loyal to the Crown, but was unable to get anything.
