So was Peleg K Dunham on the boat that went between The Lawrence and Niagara during the Battle of Lake Erie?

It is nice to know that I am related to Peleg especially being the 200th Anniversary of the War of 1812. He is my 4th cousin 5x removed through Joseph Dunham our common grandfather. My great grandfather(3x) Capt. Othniel Dunham was near the scene of the Battle of Plattsburgh.

Sincerely,
