History
Eliphalet Daniels was born on September 13, 1713, in Durham, New Hampshire, British Colonial America.[1]
In 1747 he appealed for government relief from the governor of the Province of New Hampshire after being wounded and imprisoned.[4] He had been a lieutenant in the Canada expedition of 1746 when he was wounded and captured.[1]
During the Revolutionary War in 1776, he commanded militia artillery troops at Fort Sullivan, succeeding Colonel Joshua Wingate in the role.[5] Daniels was across from Titus Salter's command at Fort Washington on Peirce Island. Daniels had one lieutenant and twenty-five artillerists at Fort Sullivan, under his lead.[5]
There are conflicting records of death for Daniels, some state he died on July 29, 1799, and other records state he died on July 23, 1799.[1]
Heirs
Daniels was married twice, first to Abigail Whiston, and second to Sarah Gerrish.[1] He had eleven children, two of which were from his second marriage.[1] His son Eliphalet Daniels was born in 1737 to Daniels and his first wife Abigail Whiston.[1]
Another Eliphalet Daniels (born April 12, 1797), fathered Eliphalet Daniels (born August 21, 1832)[6] - may have been his grandson, or a later descendant.
