The War of 1812 was a conflict between the United States and Great Britain, lasting from 1812 to 1815. It was primarily fueled by issues such as trade restrictions due to Britain's ongoing war with France, impressment of American sailors into the British Navy, and British support of Native American tribes against American expansion. The war ended with the Treaty of Ghent, restoring pre-war boundaries but resolving few of the initial disputes.

Deaths of David Mosher and Mary Mosher
'David had died previously (about 1797), had left no will, and his estate had not been probated while Mary was alive. She died 'about' May 31, 1813. Their son, Benjamin Mosher, of Saratoga, requested to be the administrator. He stated that all of his brothers and sisters were residing in the county (Saratoga), 'Elizabeth excepted,' that all agreed to let him administer the estate, and that 'the husband after said Elizabeth' whom he had 'seen and consulted' also wanted him to administer the estate. Nowhere does it name her husband or where they are living. It does not name the siblings. A bond was issued and was signed by Benjamin Mosher of Saratoga, David Fish of Greenfield, and Commins Salisbury of Milton.
The inventory of Mary's belongings was done by Benjamin in the presence of George Mosher and
Richard Fish, who acted as appraisers, March 29, 1814.'
My note: David Fish and Cummings Salisbury live next to each other in Greenfield, Saratoga, NY in the 1820 US Census....Read full story
