From History of the Pidcock Family and Association:
"When America declared its independence from Great Britain in l776 and war broke out, Jonathan and his son Charles joined the local militia. Though Jonathan was physically unfit for active service due to his age, he did make himself useful looking after the quartering of troops and caring for the sick and wounded.
According to Lequear, Jonathan's other sons also served in the Revolution under Captain John Phillips, Third Regiment, Hunterdon County Militia, New Jersey."
They are also listed as members of the militia in the Military Census of New Jersey of l793.
