Honorable M. C. Tarver
House of Representatives

My dear Mr. Tarver:
In response to your letter of this 2nd instant, with the enclosed letter of Miss Bell Bayless, Kingston, Georgia, I have this letter to advise you that from the papers in the Revolutionary War pension claim W. 3802 it appears that James Holmes enlisted in Carlisle, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania, May 22, 1778, served as drummer in Captain Forrester's and Jackson's Companies, Colonel Hartley's and Hubley's Pennsylvania Regiment and was discharged January 31, 1781.

He was allowed pension on his application executed June 8, 1818 while a resident of Southampton Township, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania aged fifty-three years and eight months.  He died August 27, 1839 in Franklin County, Pennsylvania.  

Soldier married about 1783 at Trindle Spring, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania, Jane.........
born May 7, 1784 or 1785.
She was allowed pension on her application executed November 21,

Handwritten note on correspondence as follows:
I did not say maiden name nor stated, as it may have been Holmes also -
Page 19

1839 while a resident of Lurgan Township, Franklin County, Pennsylvania.

In 1820 their daughter Jane was aged twenty-eight years and her son four years his name and that of his father not given, and in 1844 soldier's son Robert was living in Franklin County, Pennsylvania.

The above history is that of the only soldier named James Holmes of Pennsylvania found on the Revolutionary War records of this Bureau, and it is not shown that he was ever wounded, or ever served as General Washington's body guard, or as Lieutenant.

The Revolutionary War records of this Bureau fail to afford any information in regard to George Wells of Pennsylvania.

Herewith is returned the letter of Miss Bayless.
Very truly yours,

WINFIELD SCOTT
Commissioner.

Sir, 
Mrs. Jane Holmes of Franklin Co. Pennsylvania made her declaration some four years ago for the purpose of obtaining the benefits of the provisions of the act of July 7, 1838, but as she was not a a [sic] widow at the time of the passage of the act having become one since her claim was rejected, Accompanying this is her affidavit showing her to be yet living and the widow of James Holmes and renewing her application. 

The affidavit was made before the Justice of another County, ^ than the one in which Mrs. Holmes resides, for the reason that she is very infirmed and wished to make it before the nearest justice who resides immediately over the County line and quite close to her residence.

When a decision is made on this claim please forward the certificate to me at this place.

Very respectfully yours &c
