In February, 1776, the Committee of Safety of New York called upon the Provincial Congress for a de- tachment of militia to assist in arresting Tories in Queens Co., 1. I., and Staten Island, N. Y. Of the seven hundred men ordered out for that purpose, Som- erset County furnished one hundred. Another de- tachment of minute-men was ordered, Feb. 15, 1776, to proceed to New York. This was commanded by Charles Stewart, colonel ; Mark Thompson, lieuten- ant-colonel ; Frederick Frelinghuysen, first major; and Thomas Henderson, second major. Feb. 29, 1776, the remnants of the minute-men were incorporated in the militia of the district- where they resided.
June 3, 1776, the Continental t'ongress called for thirteen thousand eight hundred militia, the quota of New Jersey being three thousand three hundred. Hunterdon and Somerset furnished one of the five battalions required, in the proportion of five compa- nies from the first-named and three companies from the last-named county.

July 16, 1776, Congress requested the Convention of New Jersey to supply with militia the places of two thousand men of Gen. Washington's army who had been ordered into New Jersey to form the Flying Camp. Of the thirty companies of sixty-four men each, furnished under this call, Somerset provided two and Hunterdon four companies, which, with two from Sussex, comprised one of the four battalions, and its officers were Mark Thompson, colonel; Ahraham Bonnell, lieutenant-colonel; Enos Kelsey, major; and Jacob Jennings, surgeon.
April 14, 1778, the militia was divided into two brigades, that of Somerset being in the first and that of Hunterdon in the second. Jan. 8, 1781, it was formed into three brigades. During the war several companies of artillery and troops of horse were raised. "The good service performed by the militia is fully recorded in history. At the fights at Quinton's Bridge, Hancock's Bridge, Three Rivers, Connecticut Farms, and Van Neste's Mills they bore an active part, while at the battles of Long Island, Trenton, Assanpink, Princeton, Germantown, Springfield, and Monmouth they performed efficient service in sup- porting the Continental Line."+
