Errata To
	THE BLOODIED MOHAWK
	THE STORY OF THE AMERICAN REVOLUTION IN THE WORDS OF FORT PLANK'S DEFENDERS AND OTHER MOHAWK VALLEY PARTISANS

My Fellow Friends, Historians and Genealogists:

I thank you on behalf of the Partisans of the Mohawk Valley for purchasing my tome: The Bloodied Mohawk. I hope you have found it useful and enlightening. Unfortunately, as with all large works of transcription, I have found errors in my work. Fortunately none of these errors effect the spirit or veracity of the text. Yet they irritate my sense of perfection and it is hoped that at sometime that this tome will be reprinted and at that time all of the corrections will be published. I must thus ask that you please make the following corrections [designated in bold italics] to your texts:

Footnote Number 225 on page 93, refers to the Revolutionary War Pension Application of Henry Shaver, RWPA # S11376, not Willett’s Letter Book, NYSL Mss #SC16670.

On page 183 the fifth paragraph should read: . . . 7th Proceeded on my Journey Brackfasted at Windeckers then went on to yatses and took out a Rit for Lt John Mercer; I Dind at thi[s] Place of thers Proceeded to Fort Plank to See the Sherif But Could not find him at hom I then Returned to the River and Crost the Ferry Lodgd at Wormuts.
