I was looking for info on Capt. Eliakim Marchant's service during the War of 1812 as I have learned a grandfather served under him in Sept. 8-22, 1814 Apparently in the defense of PLattsburg, but a declaration of Claim has Plattsburg crossed out, and Bay of Burlington is written in. His declaration also says he was give 120 acres of land.  Can anyone direct me to a good account of the action in the war during this time and place, and where or what the land grant might have been. Thank you.
