John Ryant served in the French and Indian war in 1758 under Major (or Capt) Joseph Spencer of the 3rd co. of the 2nd reg. of CT, commanded by Colonel Nathan Whiting. In 1761, he was in the same regiment, but in 8th co. under Capt Asel Fitch. Does anyone know anything about JOHN RYANT--where he was born, where he went after the war, etc. ANY suggestions welcome!!
