#3. John Boisseau (RS) Born 14 Mar, 1764. James? son, John, was a private for Virginia in the Revolution so he must have been quite young when he enlisted. The war did not officially end until 1783. He served 3 terms in the army - one for himself, one for his uncle Benjamin and one for his brother Daniel.
On July 11, 1786, John married Nancy Carter. She was born in Prince Edward County, Va., but lived with him for a time in Dinwiddie County, where the Boisseaus had lived since their arrival in the country. Nancy was the descendant of several people who were Virginia Cavaliers, Wealthy British gentlemen who settled in Virginia and built. large estates with many slaves.
After the revolution, the government didn't have much money to pay the soldiers, and so they were granted land in the West. This land was unsettled by English because of the barrier of the Appalachian mountains. Up until that time settlement. had been from the coast to the ?Piedmont?, which was where rivers no longer became navigable because of falls and rapids. There was abundant water power for mills.
The British won the lands beyond the mountains from the French in the French and Indian War, and the United States, in turn won them from the British in the Revolution. After that war, Daniel Boone blazed the Wilderness trail through the Cumberland Gap, and people began to move West, drawn by the land they had earned as soldiers in the Revolution.
Before 1792, John Boisseau, his wife Nancy, their family and probably others from Dinwiddie county pioneered Franklin, Simpson County, KY in 1806. Simpson was formerly part of Logan County, KY.
They had six children:
a. Mildred (1787 - ??) married James Williams
b. Lucy (1790 - 1851) married Peter Dance in May 1818 and had eight children: James Edward, Robert C., Thomas Peter, James Waddel, Daniel B., Benjamin P, and William Oscar.
c. Daniel Thomas (1793 - 1873) married his first cousin Mildred Wade Hoskins, the daughter of Lucy Carter Hoskins. Lucy was the sister Nancy Carter. - See below for his descendants.
d. Elizabeth A. married twice, first to Theodrick Carter 2) Cory A. P. Foster
e. Benjamin Waddle (1802 to 1863) (#4) married first to Sarah Fuqua and second to Sybil Ann Duncan
f. Robert (1804 - 1810), died young.
g. Susan (1810 - ??) never married.
John Boisseau was proud of his revolutionary service. His granddaughter Susan remembered that he always dressed differently from other people. He wore knee pants with large buckles. He also served in the war of 1812. He died about 1834.
***Daniel Thomas Boisseau, son of John. Warning: He should not be confused with Daniel T. Boisseau, the son of Benjamin W, and father of Oscar G. Boisseau. ***
c. Daniel Thomas, born in 1793, died in 1873. On 3 Feb 1820 he married Mildred Wade Hoskins. She was the daughter of Lucy Carter Hosklns, who was the sister of Nancy Carter, Daniel's mother. They also had 11 children:

John Boisseau?s Revolutionary Pension application:
Boisseau, John. S.3040.
20 Jan. 1834. Simpson Co., Ky. John Boisseau of said county, aged 69 on 14 March last, declares that in 1780 he was a resident of Dinwiddie Co., Va., where he was born. In June 1780 he enlisted as a substitute for Peter Epps under Capt. George Pigrum of a militia company of Dinwiddie County.
Pigrum marched his troops from Dinwiddie Court House on 1 June 1780 to Hillsborough, N.C., and there joined the regiment of Col. Faulkner and brigade of Gen. Stevens. They marched to South Carolina where Gen. Stevens overtook Gen. Gates at Rudge1y's Mill in the fore part of the day, and in the evening he was detached to the infantry under Lt. Col. Porterfield. That night about ten o'clock they were ordered to march towards Camden where Lords Cornwallis and Rawdon were posted with their disciplined veteran troops. They met the British about five miles from Camden and about half way between Rudge1y's Mills and Camden, and a considerable contest ensued. Some of the American troops were thrown into complete confusion and consequently were driven back, which produced considerable disorder as it was dark and neither party could tell exactly where to take a stand. Porterfield's flanking corps and Armstrong, who commanded with him, Opposed the progress of the enemy's van and within a short time prisoners were taken by both sides and presently both armies came to a general halt. As soon as day dawned the battle commenced heavily on both sides and our cannon opened upon the British with a destructive fire from the center. Gen. Stevens' Virginia militia, as might have been expected from bad management and misguided judgment among the commanding officers, after one fire were greatly disordered and some of them, if not the greater part, laid down their arms and took to their heels through the dismal swamps in that country like wild fellows. The engagement between Gen. Gates and Lords Cornwallis and Rawdon lasted about one hour. Baron DeKalb at the head of the Marylanders fell with wounds. Lt. Col. Porterfield was also badly wounded in the leg during the brave stand he maintained during the battle. This battle was fought about the middle
of August 1780 and finally terminated in an entire rout of the American General and his troops. They were pursued by the enemy fifteen or twenty miles. The Americans retreated until they had crossed the Adkin River, which is the main prong of the Pedee River in North Carolina. The militia marched to Hillsborough and then to New Gardens, a Quaker settlement in Guilford Co., N.C. There, on the last of Nov. 1780, he and the other militia were discharged by the captain.
When Gen. Arnold with British troops invested Norfolk, Richmond and Williamsburg, he enlisted as a substitute in the place of his uncle Benjamin Boisseau under Capt. Baker Pigrum. Jack Willis commanded the regiment. The troops were kept between Norfolk and Petersburg. He served from 1 Jan. 1781 to 1 April 1781 and was discharged near Suffolk.
On the last of April 1781 he served as a sergeant in the place of his brother Daniel Boisseau. He was in the battle fought at Petersburg and then marched by Chesterfield Court House, crossed James River at Manakin Town and marched on the north side to Richmond. The troops wore ordered to halt a day or so and then marched to Bottmn's Bridge and lay there some time. They returned to Richmond and crossed into Chesterfield County to Cary's Mills and he was there discharged on the last of July 1781.
He was born 14 March 1764 in Dinwiddie Co., Va. He lived in Lunenburg County ten years and then went back to Dinwiddie. In 1806 he moved to Kentucky and since 1819 has lived in Simpson County. The book with his name and age recorded by his father James Boisseau was sold at his father's sale and was bought by James Sweet of Dinwiddie County.
John Boisseau of Simpson Co., Ky., private in the company of Capt. Faulkner in the regiment of Col. Pegrum in the Virginia line one year, was placed on the West Tennessee pension roll at $40 per annum under the Act of 1832. Certificate 25575 was issued 4 Feb. 1834.
