Dear Sir:

Reference is made to your request for the Revolutionary War record of Thomas Hungerford of Virginia, and of his father, Colonel Thomas Hungerford.
You are furnished herein the record of Thomas Hungerford, which is the record of the only Thomas Hungerford found on file in the Revolutionary War records of this office.

If you desire information relative to the location of the land referred to above, it is suggested that you apply to the Commissioner of the
General Land Office, Interior Department, this city, and cite the following data

Very truly yours

Dear Sirs :-
I would like to know if Lieut. Thomas ^[handwritten insert "only"]^ Hungerford drew pension for services in the Revolutionary Wat. I think that he was in Virginia Regiment commanded by Lieut. Col. Wm. Heth.
I suppose that I can find out through you if he did draw a pension and where he lived at the time of enlistment, mother and father's name. I will certainly appreciate this information.
Yours very truly,
