SOLDIERS BURIED IN LEE. 
 
 LIST OF SIX WARS IN THE THREE CEMETERIES* 
 
 COMPILED BY D. M. WILGOX. 
 
 Revolutionary. 
 
 In all cases where the state is omitted Massachusetts is understood. 
 
 This list gives the names only of men 
 whose graves are known, but it is certain 
 that a considerable number of others 
 are buried in town, some of whom rest 
 in unknown graves, and tlie service of 
 some others has not been traced. With 
 the exception of Quaker ■•, and a few 
 other exempts, all the able-bodied men 
 of New England between 16 and 60 were 
 enrolled in the militia from the early 
 years of the colonies, and during the 
 Revolution nearly all, at "one time or 
 another, performed some military ser- 
 vice. From lirst to last during that 
 struggle the names and service of more 
 than 120 men of Lee, or the territory 
 incorporated into Lee in 1777, is givea 
 in the compilation, "'Massachusetts Sol- 
 diers and Sailors of the Revolutionary 
 War." The service of some is given in 
 days, some in weeks and months, and a 
 few in years. Those marked with an 
 asterisk were residents of L'^e at th3 
 time of service.
