To whom paid

Please give family data if any - I have been searching for the revolutionary services of Henry Harrison Chapman for a long time - I trust my search is almost ended.

Thank you, a thousand times, for the data I have received from your records.

We read in 1 John 5:4 "That this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith" May we as a nation and individually overcome the world and be strong in faith.

Your friend

Dear madam:

You are advised that it appears from the records of this office that Warrant No 444 for two hundred acres of bounty land was issued February 11, 1791, on account of the services of Lieutenant Henry H Chapman of the Maryland Line, war of the revolution.

There is no further information as to his services, nor any data as to his family, due to the destruction of papers in such claims, when the War Office was burned.

The above history is that of the only soldier named Henry Chapman that is found on the Revolutionary war records of this office.

Very truly yours,

A.D. Hiller

I have to advise you from the records of this bureau it appears that Warrant No 444 for 200 acres of bounty land was issued February 11, 1791, on account of the services of Lieutenant Henry H Chapman of the Maryland Line War of the Revolution.

There is no further information on file, as to his services, nor any data on file as to his family, owing to the destruction of papers in such claims when the War Office was burned in 1814.
