Almost nobody knows the captivating true story of the Revolutionary War battle between the Vermont militia and British and loyalist forces in Shelburne, Vermont.Only one firsthand account remains of the 1778 event. It was written down fifty-five years later in a pension application. This simple document was the first clue in a historical treasure hunt for author Michael J. Haugh, MD. Haugh had a personal stake in the quest. He is a descendent of the pension applicant, Uzel Peirson, and a direct descendent of Moses and Rachel Smith Peirson. The skirmish occurred on the Peirson family's farm. As Haugh delved into family genealogy searching for information about Uzel, who was fourteen during the battle, he uncovered important facts that had previously eluded historians.
