Family indicates he claimed to have been on guard duty in the War of 1812 during the bombardment of Ft. McHenry. A service record for a John McCoy in MD does exist, showing him as a private in Captain Wm. Brown Jr.'s Co., 6th Regt. Maryland Militia, 19 aug 1814 to 05 nov 1814, deserted 05 nov 1814. The seige of Ft. McHenry occurred September 13-14, 1814, preceded by General Ross burning Washington, DC and taking Alexandria, VA.
It seems logical that he was named after someone named John Wingate, and for some definite reason. In fact, there are more than a few men with Maryland roots who were given this name. Who was the original John Wingate? One possibility, apparently from about the right period and area, was the John Wingate born 10 sep 1703 in Amesbury, MA who settled first in Dover, Delaware and later in Maryland. He is said to have served in the Revolutionary War and died 19 feb 1784 (F. W. Beers' Gazetteer and biographical record of Genesee County, New York 1788-1890 , p. 561). There are, however, some problems with this account, such as the competing birth on 19 sep 1703 of Rev. Paine Wingate, evidently the one who should be the father of the John Wingate who died in 1784 — but John the son of Paine is elsewhere said to have been born in 1734 and died in 1819. Further, men were already being named after a John Wingate as early as the 1740's in New England.
However, it is in Cecil Co., MD and perhaps in neighboring Delaware where we find several men named after John Wingate.
