Daniel Dunham and Catherine Campbell had children:

John b: abt. 1755

Lewis b: abt. 1758

Sarah b: abt. 1758 (twins?)

Jonathan b: abt. 1760

David Alston b: abt. 1762

Campbell b: 1766

Daniel with his sons Lewis (my 4th g-grandfather), John, David and I believe Jonathan all came to Canada. From the marriages that follow I also believe that they had all gone behind the British lines sometime between 1776 and 1783. I also believe that a son Asher was part of this group, but some people believe he was a cousin to Daniel.

Lewis married Catherine Slegt, February 3rd., 1779 at Staten Island, New York. his brother

John married Elisabeth Oliver, January 6th., 1779 at Staten Island, New York.
