Husband, Elijah Aspinwall was born in Massachusetts, April 29th 1790, son of John Aspinwall (b. May 3, 1764), a Revolutionary Soldier. He served in the United States Navy in the War of 1812, on a privateer. In the capturing of a British merchantman he received $10,000 in gold as his part of the loot, according to family tradition.
