Nathaniel Sackett (April 10, 1737 – July 28, 1805) was the spymaster appointed by General George Washington to create a network of civilian spies located in New York during the American Revolution.
Sackett and his new spy ring would report to William Duer, a Continental Congressman, and General Washington.
Nathaniel’s later lack of progress lead him to be relieved of his post.
He was replaced with Benjamin Tallmadge, who built upon Sackett’s work and established the Culper Spy Ring.
