Timothy died at the age of 68 and is buried at Common at Nelson, Nelson, New Hampshire.

I., and after remaining there a few days marched to Rhode Island (the Island); that he was in the battle under General Sullivan, retreated to Providence after the battle, thence to Hudson river above New York, thence into New Jersey to Rahway and Woodbridge, where they were stationed during the winter guarding the line while the Continental troops were in winter quarters. The enemy lay at Perth Amboy and came out before he was dismissed, there was a battle, the enemy being driven back. Bancroft's reliability was vouched for by Rev.
