He received a warrant under the hand of Col Charles Webb dated the 30th day of October 1775 which warrant is hereto annexed. She cannot state his service with as much particularity as would be desirable, yet she declares that he served the greatest part of the time during the whole war.

How much service he performed under it she is not able to state, this commission is hereto annexed. He afterwards received another Lieutenants commission bearing date April 22nd 1780 which is also hereto annexed. He immediately entered upon service under that commission and served a period of nine months in the Regiment of Connecticut State Troops commanded by Col Beebe or Col Bradley. The company
Page 12

in which he served to the best of her recollection was commanded by Capt Chapman. She cannot state the particulars of this service or the country through which he marched. He also served as Lieutenant at West point a period of three months in the summer and fall of the year 1781 in the Regt commanded by Col.

He was absent the whole of that time except he was occasionally at home on visits for a short time but was always [unk] in his Regiment. She regrets that she cannot
Page 13

state his service with more particularly but she states with confidence that he served from the year 1775 to the year 1783 in different grades from that of Corporal to Lieutenant.
She annexes hereto the commissions and warrants above referred to, and sundry documents, letters and papers which were in the possession of her said husband at the time of his death.

Gaylord Hubbell in the year 1776 and went to Boston and served six months as I understood and in 1778 he enlisted as a serjeant under Capt Shoot of Danbury for three months, again in 1780 he received a Lieut. Commission under Capt. Chapman in Colo Beebey's Regt of Ct. State troops and served about nine months and that I enlisted under him and served the same term of time with the sd Lieut. Hubbell and further in 1781 he performed a tour to West Point holding the same office. I further say that the said Hubel altho verry young sustained the caracter of a worthy faithful Officer and further the Deponent saith not.

I Ithiel Barns now of Pittsford Rutland County State of Vermont seventy four years old, testify and say that I was brought up in the Town of New Fairfield Fairfield County State of Ct. and that from my earliest recollection I was acquainted with Amos Hubbell of the same place but from the circumstances of my enlisting as a soldier early in the year 1777 in the continental army and continuing in the same untill it was disbanded in June 1783, my personal knowledge of Lieut. Hubbell's services were verry limmited but as I was frequently at home in the course of the war and had interviews with him together with common fame and many other [unk] of correct information I have no hesitation in saying in my form and candid belief that Leiut. Hubbell performed great and important services for his country.

Sir
I send herewith the declaration of Mrs Lucy Hubbell widow of Amos Hubbell an applicant for a pension under the act of July 7th 1838. There are annexed the affidavits of Milton Potter, Thomas Canfield, & Elijah Conger & the certificate of the Comptroller as proof of service. The affidavit of the applicants daughter to prove the death of Mr Hubbell & that his widow has remained unmarried.
In addition to the above evidence of service there are annexed to the declaration sundry documents, paper, letters, &c which go conclusively to my mind to show at best some service. There are several certificates annexed which show that he enlisted in the Spring of 1780. There are many other documents or papers which I cannot go into an explanation of because I do not exactly  understand the purpose of them myself.
I have no doubt from the best information I can get he was in the service nearly the whole war. As proof of the marriage I send annexed to her declaration the original record of the Magistrate who  married her to wit Ephraim Hubbell Esq. You [unk] on the book at the top of the right hand page in the regular order of dates, the corner of the leaf on which it is written is torn off, the month is torn & part of the said name of Mr Hubbell, but being in regular order of dates there can be no mistake about the time. Please communicate  the result to me.

Sir
The additional evidence in the case of Lucy Hubbell decd widow of Amos, claiming an increase of her pension under the act of July 7, 1838 has been examined and filed.
Lucy Hubbell was allowed for the services of her husband Amos Hubbell as follows
4 months as Corporal        $14.66
6 months as Sergt               30.00
14 months as Lt. Adjt.          186.32
and the object of the present application to procure an increaes of $93.34 per annum for his service as an Adjutant.
On reference to the written appointment of Amos Hubbell and Adj it appears that it was dated on the 23d day of August 1781 and that the corps of which he was Adjutant, was detailed "from the Connecticut Militia for three months service int he army of the United States."
This, it is believed, is the only proof, on file, of his service as an Adjutant, and she is entitled in virtue thereof to an increase of her pension at the rate of $19.50 per annum from fourth of March 1836 to Dec 2, 1839. this increase will be
