Miss Lola E. Williams,

Dear Madam,

Reference is made to your letter of recent date, relative to one William Williams, a soldier of the Revolution, who you state received a pension on account of disability incurred in service.

A careful search of the records has been made in your behalf and no papers found in a claim for pension based upon disability incurred in service in the Revolutionary War.

In the report of the Secretary of War printed in 1835 in regard to the pension establishment, the name William Williams appears on a list of invalid pensioners who were paid at the New Jersey Agency, but whose residence could not be ascertained because of the destruction of papers in 1800 and 1814.

It is shown in that report that William Williams served as a private in the Revolutionary Army and received a pension of $60 per annum to commence March 4, 1801.  He was listed as "dead" on paid report, date not shown.

This office has no further data relative to that soldier because of the destruction of papers in such early applications as noted above.

Very truly yours,
A. D. Hiller
Assistant to Administrator.

No jacket made for Wm. Williams, 2nd, whose name appears below the name of this soldier on page 12,  Report of the Secy. of War for invalid pensioners of New Jersey, as the name William, 2nd, was not found on the old invalid agency book and may have been the same man. M.M.HF.
