I red a letter from you Oct 12 1842. stating the facts why Antony Balzer Widow did not receive her pension because the act of 7 July 1838 made provision only for those that were widows  at the passage of the act 7 July 1838. If I am not mistaken their has been provisions made for all widow of Revolutionary Soldiers that were Married before 1794 and are widows at this time as you stated in your letter to me. that Anthony Balzer was Married 1787 and as a matter fact. She must be entitled to a Pension. if she is entitled to a Pension under the the late act please let me know, and also advise me how to proceed in her case, as she is very poor as I stated in my letter. She lived near Hagerstown, and if you will be so kind as to let me know I will go up there and arrange the matter for her as I am one of her Grand Children

I am informed that I had a Great Grand-Father in the Revolutionary War. I never had the pleasure of meeting him and may never have that honor.

His name was Anthony Baltzer and I am informed that the Pension Bureau has some record in regard to him in "Rev War 2153 Cts." 

Would it be asking too much of you to see if said record gives date and place where he was born and date of his death with place. Also name of organization in which he served and his rank.

If you can give me this information I will consider myself your debtor
