J. L. Edwards Esqr.
Dr Sir Jeremiah King (a very aged man)  revolutionary pensioner is now at my home. He emigrated to this country from Jessamine County Kentucky in the spring of 43. had his name transferd from the Ky agency to Missouri and drew his pension at St. Louis up to 4th Septr 43. he then removed back to Ky had his pay changed back to Ky and drew his pension in Louisville Ky up to Septr last. arranged with the pension agent to have his pay changed again to Mo. and not receiving any information from his papers. I at his request rote to the pension agent at Louisville Ky in Feby. last and red. the following reply - Ky pension agency Louisville Feby 20th 46 Jno. P. Loney Esq. D.Sir In reply to yours of the 8th Inst. I was on the 26th of Septr. last advised by the Comr. of Pensions at Washington City that the name of Jeremiah King then on the roll of this agency would be transferd to the Missouri agency and did not doubt but it has been done. I think Mr King had better make application at St. Louis for his pension and if the transfer has not been made you can then address a letter to J. L. Edwards Esqr Comr. of Pensions at Washington City and request him to advise the pension agent at St. Louis of the transfer of Mr King's name so that he may be enabled to draw his pension
Yrs &c G. W. Mereweather
Pen Agent.

I again at the request of Mr King rote to St. Louis and on yesterday recd. the following reply
Pension agency St. Louis March 14th 1845.
J. P. Loney Esqr
Sir In answer to your letter of the 2nd inst re'd yesterday I have to inform you that the name of Jeremiah King a corporal of the
Page 13

Revolution was transferd [transferred] from the Ky agency to the 
roll of Missouri in 1843 in which year he drew 
his pension to the 4th of Septr. Since then I have no 
information about him whatever If he has 
drawn pay since that time in any other State it 
is because he has been formally transferd [transferred, and to 
draw here he would now be required to be 
transferd [transferred] again to this agency. If he has been so 
transferd [transferred] I have been not been informed of it and could 
not replace him on the roll or pay him till of
ficially directed to do so. The advice of Mr. Mer
riweather agent at Louisville is correct, to apply 
to the Commissioner of Pensions at Washington who 
will put the matter right.

Very respectfully

Wm. C. Anderson 
Pension agent

I have been [illegible] in order that you 
might more fully comprehend his case.  King 
has now in his possession his original certificate 
from the war department dated the 13th of December 
1824, signed by J. C. Calhoun Secretary &c. and his 
pay commenced on the 16th day of December 1823. 
Mr. King also informs me that heretofore when he 
had his pay changed he always sent on the origin
al certificate to the war department, but in Septr
last, Mr. Meriweather copied the same and told him 
that would do. If otherwise please inform me or him 
and I will cause the original to be forwarded as 
heretofore. I would further remark that Mr. King 
is now near 88 years old (and without money) and 
is very feeble.  Your early attention is respectfully 
solicited.  Respt.

Be it known that on this 19th day 
of September 1845 before me pension agent personally 
appeared Jeremiah King a Revolutionary pensioner 
of the United State who on his oath declares that 
he is the same person who formerly belonged to the 
Company commanded by Capt. Armstrong in the Regi
ment commanded by Col. Brooks in the service 
of the United States that his name was placed on the 
pension roll of the State of Kentucky and afterwards 
at his request transferred to the State of Missouri 
and also at his request restored back to the roll of the State 
of Kentucky where it now stands that he is now 
on his return to the State of Missouri where he 
believes he will remain the remainder of his life 
and wishes his pension to be there payable in 
future for the following reasons that he is 
old & past labour [labor] & his pension is inadequate 
to his support in the State of Kentucky from whence 
all his descendants have removed & are now living 
in the State of Missouri.

I certify that Jeremiah King the person named in

of Pension which is dated the 13th day of December 1824 
signed by J. C. Calhoun Secretary of War which states 
him to have been a corporal and the pension to be at the 
rate of eight dolls per month.  he also exhibited to

"Pensioner Nicholasville Jessamine County Ky." advising 
him of his name having been transferred from the roll

Dr Sir:

Some two years since, I removed to 
Missouri, with the intention of making that State 
my residence for the short time which might re
main to me of this world, and requested to 
be placed on the Pension Roll of that State. 
Your letter of the 2d. December, 1842, granting 
my request is now before me.  But having 
tried the climate of Missouri, am now satis
fied that it does not suit my constitution 
and have again removed to Jessamine County, 
Kentucky.  And however troublesome it may 
be to you, have to request, that my name 
be again placed on the roll of the Kentucky 
Agency.  Whimsical as this may appear 
to you, my own comfort demands it at 
my hands, and I hope you will grant my
request.

With much respect,

[Handwritten: Copy]

Sir:

In response to your inquiry relative to Nathaniel and 
Jeremiah King, Wars of the Revolution and 1812, you are advised 
that from the data given no record of a claim filed by or on 
account of the service of Nathaniel King, of Connecticut, New 
York or New Jersey, in either of said wars, has been found.

One Jeremiah King applied for pension on February 17, 1823; 
he was then 64 years of age and resided in Jessamine County, 
Kentucky; he enlisted at Brunswick, N. J., under Capt. Geo. 
Armstrong, on May 22, 1778, served as private in the 3d Maryland 
regiment; on August, 14, 1778, he was appointed Corporal, and 
was discharged April 4, 1779, at Middle Brook, N. J.  His 
father's name is not stated.  He was living in Missouri in 1846. 
His claim was allowed (Inv. File No. 36032). 

The records of this Bureau also show that one Jeremiah 
King enlisted October 13, 1813, in Seneca County, New York, and 
served as Sergeant in Captain Samuel Ingersoll's company, Colonel 
McClure's regiment, New York militia, and was discharged December 
23, 1813.  In 1853 he was a resident of Bradford County, Pa., 
and then 70 years of age.  His father's name is not stated.

Very respectfully,

Commmissioner.

Dear Sirs:--

Jeremiah King, of Maryland or Virginia, drew a pension.  I think he removed 
to Kentucky and lived first in Jessamine county and later if Estle county, Ky.  Will 
you please give me a copy of his pension - if he had one - and names mentioned in his 
application.  Also of Joseph King, of Estle co. Ky. who served in Va. or Md.

Very truly yours,
