Dear Sir:  

Attention:  A. D. Hiller

On May 28 I wrote you regarding the records in your office as to Andrew Beaty and on June 10 you wrote me giving me a complete record of one Andrew Beaty -- S.2989  BA-j/AWF.  This is not the Andrew Beaty of whom I was inquiring and I note you state in the second paragraph of your letter that this the record of the only Andrew Beaty found on file in the revolutionary war records in your office.  The Andrew Beaty of whom I  inquired and who is my great grandfather was born in Ireland, Scotch-Irish, came to American in a sail boat before the revolutionary war and located at Cow Pasture Springs, Virginia.  After the close of the war he migrated to southern Indiana, Monroe County, which must have been sometime before 1800.  He died in 1819, at the age of 72 I think, and is buried about 12 miles west of Bedford, Indiana.  I also know he had two sons John Beaty and James Beaty and two or more daughters but I am not informed as to the daughters.  If you can find any further record of this Andrew Beaty it will be most highly appreciated. 

I have no information whether he ever received pension or any other favor from the government.  I am trying to connect up and see if I can establish he was a revolutionary soldier.  Thank you again for your courteous and splendid cooperation in this matter.

Dear Sir:

Reference is made to your letter in which you state that the record of Andrew Beaty, S. 2989, furnished you June 10, 1936, is not that of the Andrew Beaty in whom you are interested.

Revolutionary War data furnished by the Veterans Administration are obtained from claims for pension and bounty land which have been made to the United States based upon service to that war.

Another careful search of those records has been made in your behalf and, as stated in the report to you, the record furnished is that of the only soldier with the name Andrew Beaty found on the Revolutionary War records of this office   The surname has been searched under all spellings.  It is regretted, indeed, that this office has no data to aid you n your research.

The Adjutant General War Department, this city, is custodian of military records.  It is suggested that that official might have record of service of the Andrew Beaty in whom you are interested.

Dear Madam:

Reference is made to your letter in which you request information in regard to the following soldiers of the Revolutionary War -

Sergeant William Duke, enlisted for service May 6, 1776 for two and one half years in the North Carolina troops; land granted by law of 1783, 357 acres for 30 months' service.

Private John Duke of Carter's company in the North Carolina troops; heirs of John Duke granted 640 acres of land for 84 months' service.

Andrew Beaty in the battle of King's Mountain, and later drew a pension for his service.

Revolutionary War data furnished by this office are obtained from claim and pension and bounty land  which have been made to the United States, based upon service in that war.

A search of the records fails to show such claims on file on account of service of a John Duke of North Carolina.

The land grants referred to by you were not granted by the United States.  As a possible means of securing information relative to said land grants, it
