FROM THE GENEALOGICAL RECORD OF THE STRYCKER  FAMILY
BY WILLIAM S. STRYKER

    Evidence has been found which reveals that John Stryker and his sonJohn Stryker Jr. were soldiers together in the American Revolution duringtheir settlement in Muncy, Pennsylvania.  They participated in at leasttwo victorious campaigns.  The first campaign was the famous battleduring which General Washington and his troops crossed the DelawareRiver, attacked Cornwallis at Trenton and forced the British to retreatfrom New Jersey in the winter of 1776.  The second campaign took place inthe summer of 1777 when General Howe marched British troops towardPhiladelphia but was impressively forced back by the Continental Army.They also participated in a drive to bring about an end to the massacresof the local settlers by savage Indian tribes during December 1777 andJanuary 1778.  They then apparently remained on alternatingfarmer/soldier status at Muncy until the general retreat of the county'spopulus to New Jersey in June 1778, historically called the Big Runaway.

    The military organization with which the two John Strykers servedwas the Third Battalion of Northumberland County, Pennsylvania Militia,formed at Muncy on March 13, 1776.  They were attached to either theSecond Company under Captain Samuel Wallis, or the Seventh Company underCaptain David Berry.

    John Stryker Sr. left New Jersey in 1784 and returned to the MuncyPennsylvania area.
