    • Military: 1776; He was a sergeant in Mead's Regiment of the Connecticut Militia.
    • History: 1779; Darling fought on the British side of the Revolutionary War. He fought at Lloyd?s Neck on Long Island, NY and was defeated by the American Revolutionaries. Darling and the other British soldiers made a raid on Greenwich where he burnt buildings including the church, likely the same church where the family?s records were held. After losing the war, he was sentenced to death by the victorious revolutionaries . Before he could be executed, however, it was decided that he would be exchanged for an American prisoner . The family did, however, lose all their land and property, which was given over to the American side. How would have been for his wife, Abigail Peck and their ten children..... the horror and anxiety of having your husband and father sentenced to death, and then the relief of having him returned, but losing all your property and land and being forced to leave to a new country. The following entry the minute book kept by Peter Mead, "1779 - October Session of the General Assembly. Darling Whelpley, Solomon Perris, William Peck, and David Washburn under sentience of death for the crime of high treason, sentence was suspended until the first Wednesday of March 1780. They were finally exchanged." After he was exchanged, his estate was forfeited and confiscated.
    • Moved To: 1783, New Brunswick, Canada; Darling Whelpley left the United States and sailed for New Brunswick on board the ship called "Hope" in 1783, along with his wife and nine of their children, according to the passenger lists. They settled in Upper Saint John and Kingston area with many other British loyalists. Another son, Jonathan, probably came later. They came to Canada on the ship"Hope." After surviving the war, losing all their property and most of their possessions, forsaking a land they had worked hard to build, and narrowly escaping execution, they came to Canada, their new promised land.
