Joseph Catterline's grave is located in Miami Chapel Cemetery in Fairfield, Ohio.
From Ancestry.com: Catterlin served eight days as a lieutenant in Captain David Smalley's
company, recruiting men for the State Troops in June l779. He commanded a
detachment of 25 men in service at Morristown in August 1780, then served as
a lieutenant in Captain John Outwater's company defending the state's
frontiers. Catterlin was stationed in Bergen County from April 1 to
December 31, l781, served in Captain Peter Ward's company until December 15,
l782, which included an engagement with the enemy at Fort Lee, and then he
rejoined Outwater's unit, serving with him from July 1 to September 16,
l784. Lt. Joseph Catterline was also in charge of Signal Beacon #7 located
"near the Quibbletown Gap," just south of his tavern. In all, Catterlin's
military record was an impressive one.
