Revolutionary War soldier. Private, Continental Line. Military Record: Revolutionary War: Pension File #S.29.560 Putnam's 3rd Regiment, Continental Reserves. His government military service marker was installed in 1987 by the DAR. Connecticut Vital Records; Lebanon, Births-Marriages-Deaths 1700-1854 (Barbour Collection, Connecticut State Library, 1920), 341, Volume 1. "Woodworth, Swift, son of Benjamin Jr. and Mercy b. Oct 16, 1759." "My Aunt believed that Swift was buried in Jackson, Co. Mich. We had no proof, but the fact that Charles, his son, had this land set aside for a burying place when he sold the land, and the fact that Charles' wife Desire was buried there two years earlier led us to believe that Swift is buried there also. So my Aunt had papers filled out and sent them to the government, and a stone was put there on the site we figured was where he was buried. So that is why there is a stone on the grave, thanks to my Aunt, Lottie E. Nokes, the great grandaughter of Swift Woodworth." -Find a Grave
