Sir:

I have to advise you that from the records of this Bureau, it appears that Warrant No 582 for 400 acres of bounty land was issued September 1, 1789, on account of the services of Major John Davidson of the Maryland Line of the War of the Revolution.

There is no further information on file as to his services, nor any data on file as to his family owing to the destruction of papers in such claims when the War office was burned in November 1800.

Respectfully

Commissioner
