Dear Madam:

Reference is made to your letter in which you request the Revolutionary War record of Dr. Walter Warfield who served as surgeon in the 2" Maryland Regiment, and died in Lexington, Kentucky.

The records of this office show that Walter Warfield served as surgeon, Maryland Line, War of the Revolution, and served until the close of the war.

On account of his service, as given above, there were allowed 400 acres of bounty land on warrant #2405, issued March 27, 1795.  There are no statements on file in this office made at the time of the application for this bounty land, because of the destruction of papers in such early claims when the War Office was burned in 1800 and 1814, hence, no information whatever in regard to the residence, age or family of Dr. Walter Warfield. 

It is suggested that further information in regard to the service of Dr. Walter Warfield might be obtained from The Adjutant General, War Department, this city.  If you desire information in regard to the location of the land granted on account of service of Dr. Walter Warfield, you should apply to the Commissioner, General Land Office, this city, and furnish that official the number of warrant, acreage and date of issuance, given herein.

Very truly yours,
A. D. HILLER,
Executive Assistant
to the Administrator.
