Dear Sir.
      The records of Connecticut show that Benjamin Wood was among those who applied for pension for service during the Revolutionary war, but do not show the service upon which the application was based.  Will by kind enough to inform me if the records of your Bureau show such an application, and if so upon what claim, and was such a pension granted?  The same information is desired regarding Dr. Benjamin Warner whose residence was New Milford.
Benjamin Wood resided at Danbury,
