Life story

Died at News of Peace

John Slater was born in 1756, son of Joseph Slafter, and married Lois Carpenter, settling in Jay, New York. He died February 14, 1815, in Guilford, Vermont, on his way home from a neighbor's house after hearing that peace had been restored — likely news of the end of the War of 1812, which reached America that winter.
