    Levi Trowbridge enlisted at the outbreak of the Revolution in Capt. Thomas Clark's Derby company, which marched to relieve Boston at the Lexington alarm and was on duty two days.

    After his marriage he settled on a farm in Oxford. He and his wife were admitted members of the Oxford Congregational church April 18, 1784. He followed his father to Fair Haven, Vt., and in August 1786, the latter gave him his "second division lot" lying on the south side of the river. He sold this after his fathers death and went to live on West street in the village. He lived there until the spring of 1810, when he emigrated to Washington county, Ohio, USA, and settled near Marietta. He removed to Ames township, Athens county, in 1820, and in June 1836, to Swan Creek, Ohio, USA township, Gallia county, where he passed the remainder of his life.
