Not much is known of Isaac's parents or from where he came. Isaac's mother's maiden name was Smith. She was the sister of Lieutenant James Smith who settled in Poultney, Rutland County, Vermont. Isaac's father had a sister (Allice (Adams) Beman (b. 1772) who settled with her husband in Hampton, Washington County, New York.
After becoming of age at 16 years, Isaac entered Captain Thomas Sawyer's Company of Vermont Militia raised for the defense of the Northern Frontiers (preventing the incursion of the enemy on the northern frontiers and to annoy them should they come within reach). Isaac served as a Private in Sawyer's Company, May 12, 1779 until discharged, June 28, 1779, one month and eighteen days. Captain Sawyer, then of Clarendon, Rutland County, Vermont and in Colonel Gideon Warren's 5th Vermont Militia Regiment, was then in command of a Company raised from Colonels Warren, Samuel Fletcher, Samuel Herrick, and Joel Marsh's Militia Regiments. Captain Sawyer's Company, upon Captain Gideon Brownson's Company, Colonel Seth Warner's Continental Line Regiment (1777-1780) being ordered and moved to Albany, New York, garrisoned Fort Ranger at Rutland. From there, Captain Sawyer's Company manned two other Frontier Forts (one at Pittsford and the other at Castleton, both in Rutland County, Vermont) and sent out constant scouts towards Lake Champlain and gathered intelligence of the motions and designs of the enemy.
In 1780, Isaac served, beginning February 1st, for ten months as a Private in Captain Parmelee Allen's Company of Rangers, Major Ebenezer Allens' Detachment raised for the defense of the State of Vermont. During this period of time, Major Ebenezer Allen was overall commander of the Vermont forces garrisoned at or out of Fort Ranger at Rutland. James Smith, Isaac's uncle, was the second Lieutenant of this Company.
In June 1781, Isaac served 2 days as a Private in Captain Zebediah Dewey's Poultney Company, Colonel Ira Allen's 6th Vermont Militia Regiment responding to an alarm at Castleton, beginning June 10, 1781.
Isaac married, September, 1784 in Poultney, Rutland County, Vermont, Hannah Fletcher (b. 1764) by whom he had eight children (4 sons and 4 daughters): Milo (1785-1817), Abial (b. 1787), unknown daughter (b. 1789), Eunice (Adams) Lewis (b. 1781), Daniel (b. 1793), unknown daughter (b. 1798), Hiram and Lucy.
Soon after Isaac's son Abial was born in Poultney, May 4, 1787, Isaac and his family moved to South Hero, Chittenden (now Grand Isle) County, Vermont. Isaac was elected First Constable and Collector of Taxes for the Town of South Hero, March 10, 1789 and again March 15, 1790. He was enumerated in the 1790 US Census being a Head of a Family in South Hero with two males under the age of 16 years and two females.
