Dear Madam:
Reference is made to your request for information relative to John Adams who served in the Revolutionary War and Lieutenant William Irwin [Erwin] who served in the "War for the Reduction of Canada" presumably identical with the French and Indian War of 1754-1763, or who served in the Revolutionary War.
This office has no record of service rendered prior to the Revolutionary War, therefore it has no record of Lieutenant William Irwin [Erwin] who served in the French and Indian War.
The data which follow were obtained from papers on file in pension claim, S. 12906, based upon the military service of John Adams.
This soldier stated that he was born May 25, 1760, in Oblong, Dutchess County, New York. The names of his parents were not given.
While living in Alford, Berkshire County, Massachusetts, he enlisted and served as private with the Massachusetts troops as follows: from March, 1776, ten months in Captain William Bacon's company in Colonel Porter's regiment; from May or June, 1777, two months under Captains Fitch and Wilcox in Colonel Ashley's regiment; in 1778, three months in Colonel Israel Chapin's regiment.
After the Revolution he moved to Great Barrington, state not given, and from there he moved to Bloomfield, Ontario County, New York.
Page 14

He was allowed pension on his application executed August 27, 1832, while living in Bloomfield, New York, and he then stated that he was seventy-One years of age and that he had lived in Bloomfield for more than forty years.
He stated that his brother Jonathan Adams, served in the same company with him in 1776.
One Abner Adams was living in Bloomfield, New York, in 1832, relationship not shown.
The papers in this claim contain no further data relative to the family of John Adams.
