Dear Madam:
Reference is made to your letter relative to John McCall, a soldier of the Revolutionary War.
The data which follows were obtained from the papers on file in pension claim, S. 17579, based upon the Revolutionary War service of John McCall.
He was born in 1764 in York County, Pennsylvania, from whence his father, whose name is not given, moved to Orange County, North Carolina.
While residing in Orange County, North Carolina, he entered the service in June, 1780, served three months as a private in Captain Williams’ and Trice’s company, Colonel Taylor’s North Carolina regiment, and was in the battle of Camden. He volunteered in February, 1781, served three months as private in Captain Williams’ and Thompson’s Company, Colonel Taylor’s North Carolina regiment, and was in the battle of Guilford. He stated that he went out on several occasions against the Tories without any regular appointed officers.
After the Revolutionary War the soldier moved from North Carolina to York County, South Carolina, thence to Richmond County, Georgia, thence to Pendleton County, South Carolina, from there to Sullivan County, Tennessee, thence to Jefferson County, Tennessee, and in the fall of 1814 to Limestone County, Alabama.
He was allowed pension on his application executed October 23, 1832, while a resident of Limestone County, Alabama.
There is no reference to wife and children.
Very truly yours
