| Summary | "Colonel Henry Ludington: A Memoir" by Willis Fletcher Johnson is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The memoir chronicles the life and significance of Colonel Henry Ludington, focusing on his contributions during the American Revolutionary War and his role in local governance in New York. The narrative aims to shed light on Ludington's service and the vital part played by militia officers in the war. At the start of the memoir, the author discusses the lesser-known but important involvement of militia forces during the American Revolution, framing Colonel Ludington as a significant figure in this context. The opening details Ludington's family background and genealogical history, tracing the origins of the Ludington family from England to their settlement in America. It also highlights key milestones in the early life of Henry Ludington, including his military service in the French and Indian War, which set the stage for his later involvement in the Revolutionary War, suggesting a trajectory that prepares him for leadership in the tumultuous times to come.
