"Caleb Thayer - Jeremiah - m., April 28, 1774, Susanna Threshire. Had Levi, b. Feb. 19, 1775; Sarah, b. 1776. He enlisted in the army of the Revolution, 1777, and died in service, 1778."

There is much disagreement on names and dates here. I also choose to believe that Caleb is the son of Jeremiah rather than Ebenezer -- because Ebenezer and Jeremiah both have a wife named Alice, and this source dares to challenge Bezaleel Thayer's work.
