Timothy DORGAN (died aboard "Jersey" Oct 1781). He had a son named Andrew, born NY 1772, who in turn had a son named Andrew who died in Mobile,AL 1857. I believe it was Timothy (b. c. 1740 in Whitewell, CO. Cork, Ireland) who was the Revolutionary War prisoner, unless of course, he had a brother named Andrew who experienced the same.

Andrew Dorgan was taken prisoner by Hessian soldiers in 1780.He was imprisoned on British prison ship Jersey and died after one year of confinement.  He was buried in a War Memorial Cemetery in Brooklyn.
