Madam:

I advise you that from the Revolutionary War records of this bureau it appears that Mathew, or Matthew, Brothers served as a private in the Eighth Pennsylvania Regiment and was discharged in 1783, length of service not stated.

Warrant No. 9073, dated November 5, 1789, for one hundred acres of bounty land, was issued on account of the above service.

In 1814 he was living in Jefferson County, Kentucky where he had resided many years.

His age and the date of his death are not stated and there are no data on file as to his family.

The above named records fail to afford any information in regard to Mathias Brothers.

Respectfully,
WINFIE3LD SCOTT
Commissioner.
