Lieut. Nathan Bliss of the village of Whitesboro (Whitesborough), NY was born in Hatfield, Massachusetts in September 1752-1754, the son of Ebenezer Bliss and Sarah Cooley of Longmeadow, Hampshire, MA. He married Submit White on November 19, 1782.
Mr. Bliss participated in the Revolutionary War, enlisting as a private in Major Andrew Colton's Company, Col. Timothy Danielson's Massachusetts Regiment, which had earlier marched (April 20, 1775) to the alarm of April 19, 1775. He enlisted April 28, 1775 and served for three months, seven days. He received an order for a bounty coat or its equivalent in money, dated December 22, 1775. [ Note: On July 5, 1775, a resolve was passed to provide each of the non-commissioned officers and soldiers of the army with a coat; 13,000 were ordered to be provided by towns and districts, in accordance with a regular apportionment. This gift of a coat was considered in the nature of a bounty, and later, at the time of their distribution, the men in service were permitted to choose between accepting the coat or a sum of money in lieu thereof.]
Later Mr. Bliss enlisted in Capt. Gideon Burt's (Hampshire County) Company, Col. Timothy Danielson's Massachusetts Regiment for seven days. He marched June 12, 1782 to retake Samuel Ely who was rescued from the Springfield jail and June 16, 1782 to oppose rioters at Northampton.

Thomas born in England, married Margaret Hulins, some say Lawerence, because her son was named that. He was first at Braintree, MA, and then Hartford, Conn. He married in England. Because of religious persecutions, Thomas and brother George came to Plymouth, MA in 1635. He was one of the original settlers of Hartford, Conn., and was a surveyor of highways and appointed to view the fence of the town. He died in Hartford and his widow moved to Springfield in 1643 with her children. She purchased a tract of land one mile square in Springfield, Today Margaret and Bliss Streets are on her old land and are named after her.
