Sir: 
I advise you from the papers in the Revolutionary War pension claim, S. 36061, it appears that Joseph Martin enlisted in Connecticut, May 14, 1776 and served to February 24, 1777 in Captain James Stedman's Company, Colonel Andrew Ward's Connecticut Regiment, and was in the battle of White Plains. 

He was allowed pension on his application executed October 6, 1819, at which time he was living in Hampton, Windham County, Connecticut, aged sixty-five years. 

In, 1820 his wife Abigail was sixty-four years old, and in 1823 the soldier was living in Chaplin, Connecticut. 

He died August 29, 1828.

There are no further data as to family. 

Due to the very large number of inquiries similar to yours, and the lack of a clerical force available for the purpose, the bureau is unable to make immediate reply

to each inquiry relative to soldier's of the War of the Revolution. 

Letters are being answered as rapidly as possible in the order of receipt. 

Respectfully, 

E. W. MORGAN
Acting Commissioner
