Frederick FELLS? Loyalist or Revolutionist?

I would like to confirm if Frederick FELL whom I've traced back to Claverac, Columbia Co, New York, USA was a Loyalist or Revolutionist?

He is listed as a private in Captain Johannis Hogeboom's Company in the book Upstate New York in the 1760's by Florence Chritoph.
He is also listed as a private in Captain's Richard Esselstyn's Company in History of Columbia County, New York by Evert & Ensign.

However, I found notes on the internet that he spend 10 months in jail for opposing the revolution, but no mention of that was made in the report I received from the Columbia Historical Society.
