  • Notes 
    • Jason was the book keeper in a Wintergreen distillery located in Carterville, Amboy Twp., Oswego County, New York. He was also a shoemaker by trade.
      Jason enlisted in the Union Army, as a member of the New York 2nd Heavy Artillery. He rose to the rank of Corporal as was appointed Company Clerk (no doubt due to his book keeping skills). He was wounded during his only engagement, on May 16, 1864, losing his thumb. He became infected, and was taken to Aquia Creek, and thence to a Washington, D.C. hospital where he died of blood poisoning.
      In 1855 they were living in Ellisburg.
