Dear Sir:
Reference is made to your letter in which you request the Revolutionary War records of Colonel Gideon Warren, who
died April 4, 1803, and Elizur Webster, who died March 26, 1791 and whose widow died June 27, 1829, probably at Whitehall, or
Hampton, Washington County, New York.
A search of the Revolutionary War records of this office has been made and no claim for pension or bounty land found
based upon service of an Elizur (Eleazer Webster who died in 1791 and whose widow died in 1829.
The records of this office show that Gideon Waring was a captain in the War of the Revolution, and received a pension
at the rate of $120 per annum on account of said service; his name was placed on the New York Agency.
This officer died April 4, 1803.
There are no further data on file in this office in
regard to his service and none whatever pertaining to his family, because of the destruction of papers in such early claims when the War Office was burned in 1800 and 1814.
It is suggested that further information in regard to the military record of this officer, whose name may be on military roll
as Gideon Warren, might be obtained from the Adjutant General, War Department, this city.

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

Gentlemen:-
Col. Gidden Warren, of the Vermont Militia
in the War of the Revolution, died in Hampton, N.Y. in April 1803. He was wounded at the Battle of Ticonderoga, and was said to have been pensioned. If he is on record as pensioned, will you kindly let me know if there is any mention of another wife, other than Eunice Chipman, who was his widow?
He must have had a previous wife who was the mother of his first four children, whose births are recorded. I wish her name, date of birth, marriage,
and death.
Caleb Warren was a pensioner of the
American Revolution. Enlisted in Vermont Militia. Moved to Hampton, N.Y., and died there. Will you kindly advise me if any papers in your Office, give the name of his father and mother, their marriage and death of mother? Caleb's wife was Rachel Webster.
Thanking you, I am,
Very Sincerely,
Chloe Webster Jacques

Will you please inform me whether or
not the Revolutionary War pension records in your office contain pension application for Colonel Gideon Warren, or a Widow's pension for his wife, Mrs. Eunice (Unice) Warren?
Colonel Gideon Warren was appointed
colonel of the 5th Vermont Reg't of Militia, in 1778, and after the war removed to Hampton, Washington county, New York, where he died April 4, 1803. After his death his wife, Mrs. Eunice Warren, removed to the home of
her son in North Java, Wyoming County, N. Y., where she died in 1831.
Also, have you a Revolutionary Widow's
pension application for Mrs. Ruth Webster, widow of Elizur Webster, who served as a teamster in the Rev. War? Elizur Webster died March 26, 1791, and his wife died June 27, 1829, probably at Whitehall or Hampton,

RE: Caleb Warren.
Gentlemen:
Will you please send me a copy of the
War Pension Record of my above named Revolutionary War ancestor who inlisted February 1781, rank; private- James Brookins, Captain, Samuel Fletcher, Colonel, Vermont State: Pension granted August 28, 1833. This soldier was the son of Col. Gideon Warren.

I would also like the pension record of
his father, Col. Gideon Warren, Revolutionary hero inlisted from Vermont State, and who was granted a pension by your
department, though I think you had the name " Warrin" instead of " Warren".
Very truly yours,
C Bertrand Race
