Levi Warner was a true Minuteman and was called on 19 April 1775 to participate in the Lexington Alarm, the first battle of the Revolutionary War. In October 1777, he, a Sergeant, participated in the crucial American victory at the Battles of Saratoga, New York.
He rose through the ranks of the Massachusetts Militia, holding the ranks of Private, Corporal, Sergeant, and 2nd Lieutenant before the War ended. Officers under which Warner served included a brother-in-law and a couple of cousins, all from Leominster, Massachusetts.
Shortly after the War, he was a Captain in the militia that put down Shay’s Rebellion in Western Massachusetts.
The Patriot died on 25 July 1813 in Leominster, Massachusetts.
Send a biographical sketch of your patriot!
Patriot biographies must be the original work of the author, and work submitted must not belong to another person or group, in observance with copyright law. Patriot biographies are to be written in complete sentences, follow the established rules of grammar, syntax and punctuation, be free of typographical errors, and follow a narrative format. The narrative should unfold in a logical manner (e.g. the narrative does not jump from time period to time period) or have repeated digressions, or tell the history of the patriot's line from the patriot ancestor to the author. The thinking here is that this is a patriot biography, not a lineage report or a kinship determination project or other report published in a genealogy journal. The biography should discuss the qualifying service (military, patriotic, civil) of the patriot ancestor, where the service was rendered, whether this was a specific state or Continental service, as well as significant events (as determined by the author) of the patriot's life. This is the entire purpose of a patriot's biography.
