1203 While not a member of the armed services during the Revolutionary War, he provided substantial patriotic service in caring for soldier's wives and protecting the home front. He was a member of the Committee of Safety, and served as sergeant on the Lexington Alarm.

History of Norfolk:
The since famous skirmishes of Lexington and Concord were fought, which precipitated the Revolutionary war. An alarm was immediately spread in every direction.

The news quickly reached this distant town, and a most creditable response was made, twenty-four men being found ready to march at scarcely more than a moment's notice, for the assistance of the Massachusetts colonists. The names
of the men found in the official ''List of the men who marched from the Connecticut towns for the relief of Boston in the Lexington alarm, April, 1775, from the town of Norfolk," are as follows: Timothy Gaylord, captain; Serggeants, Samuel Cowles, Titus Watson, Brotherton Seward; Clerk, William Hewett.

Deacon Samuel Cowles, ensign, was in skirmish at White Plains, and perhaps also in Canada campaign. He marched after Lexington, also.

Noah Cowles, son of Samuel, entered service very young as musician, probably a drummer. Was at Burgoyne's surrender at Saratoga.
