Dear Madam:
Reference is made to your letter in which you request the Revolutionary War record of Jeremiah Day, a pensioner of Clermont County, Ohio, in 1819.
The data which follow were obtained from the papers on file in pension claim, S. 42669, based upon service of Jeremiah Day in the Revolutionary War.
Jeremiah Day enlisted sometime in 1777, near Amboy, New Jersey, served as private in Captain Noadiah Wade's and Alexander
Mitchell's company, Colonel Martin's Regiment of New Jersey troops and continued in service until 1783, when he was discharged at New Windsor, New York, in all more than six years.
He was allowed pension on his application executed June 5, 1818, at which time he resided in Clermont County, Ohio. The soldier gave his age then as sixty-six years, but did not state the date and place of his birth, nor the names of his parents. He made no reference to wife or children. In 1820, he stated that he
had no family living with him who depended upon him for support.
In order to obtain the date of last payment of pension, name and address of person paid, and possibly, the date of death of this pensioner, you should address The 
Comptroller General, General Accounting Office, and furnish the following: Jeremiah Day, 
Certificate #12937, issued July 28, 1819, rate $8 per month, commenced July 5, 1818, Act of March 18, 1818, Ohio Agency.
