As sixteen years was the age required, Levi had his comrade answer for him when brought before the mustering officer. The deception was not noticed, as probably they were not very particular at that time, so great was the demand for soldiers. He bore his full share of the hardships incident to a soldier's life. (Mr. Priest, describing the shirts he had to wear at that time, said: "The warp was grapevine, and the filling ovenwood.") On one occasion hunger drove him almost to despair; so much so that, discovering a bone in the yard where cattle were kept, he cleaned it and made a soup from it. Many times in his after life he said that this was the sweetest morsel he ever tasted. Lying down one night in his blanket on a rise of ground, he awoke to find himself surrounded with water.

William Waterman and Hannah Gardner. He married 1st Harriet Weeks. From Genealogy Records:
Col. John Waterman, born Aug. 25, 1730, married June 13, 1754. Sarah, daughter of Col. John Potter. Col. Waterman inherited the estate of his father. He defended Old Warwick from an invasion by the British in the Revolution at the time when the enemy was in possession of Newport, and was in command of a regiment which drove the British from the Island of Prudence at the time Wallace landed and burnt the houses on the Island. He was colonel of militia, for many years president of the town council, and member of the General Assembly, and held other responsible positions. Col. William Waterman, son of Col. John, born May 5, 1763, made his home in the town of Coventry, where he was engaged in farming. He was a soldier in the war of the Revolution, and received a pension from the government. He was a captain and later a colonel in the militia. His death occurred in Coventry, Nov. 8, 1848. On June 9. 1793, he married Hannah Gorton, widow of Benjamin Gorton and daughter of Capt. Oliver Gardner and Marcy Gorton. Captain Garner was son of Isaac Gardiner and Margaret Gardiner. See Gardner-Gardner Genealogy and from Boston Semi-Weekly Advertiser (MA), Oct. 15, 1825, p. 1:In E. Greenwich, R. I. capt. Oliver Gardner, aged 81--a worthy man in all the relations of life. Capt. G. was for 36 years an able and experienced nautical commander, both before and after the revolution. In 1776 he received a commission from Nicholas Cook, Esq. then Governor of Rhode Island and Providence Plantations, to take command of the Row Galley called Washington, two of which species of armed vessels had been built by order of the General Assembly, to protect the trade of the Colony. In this service Capt Gardner continued some time when he was engaged in constant employ during the continuance of the war of Independence, with much credit to his courage and ability. He was employed to pilot the French fleet to Boston, which he performed with much skill, and when danger or duty called he was always at his post.

Jane Eliza Ballou 1836-1893 born in Cumberland RI to Jonathan Ballou and Anna Hendrick, daughter of Joseph Hendrick and Ruth Capron.  Wife of Edward Waterman Fiske. Jonathan Ballou was a merchant tailor for many years on Cumberland Hill, R. I., and later at Woonsocket. He was a rarity in his line at first, among us country folks of his native town, who had always before been mostly accustomed to home-made garments of female construction. But the new styles and more polished workmanship soon took the lead and became indispensable. Our Ballou cousin was a kind hearted, ingenious, industrious, accommodating, honest, worthy man in all his relations. And he achieved fair success in his business, though never acquiring great wealth—simply a comfortable competence. He was liberal in his religious sentiments, and humane toward suffering fellow creatures. He was for half a century much devoted to the Masonic Order, and deservedly respected for many virtues. We do not think he reached or sought much distinction in martial or political life, but contented himself with the even tenor of ordinary citizenship. As he descended into old age, he became a great sufferer from stone in the bladder, which at length wore him out. He died in the serene hope of a blessed immortality, at Woonsocket, Nov. 27, 1869, a. 77 yrs. 9 mos. and 28 ds. The writer ministered at his funeral, and his remains were buried with Masonic honors. His worthy widow d. at Woonsocket, May 1, 1884. From "An Elaborate History and Genealogy of the Ballous in America."
