Dear Madam:
Reference is made to your letter in which you request the Revolutionary War records of Zacheus Mallory and of his son, Nathaniel, both of Vermont.
The Revolutionary War records of this office have been searched and no claim for pension or bounty land found based upon service of Zacheus Mallory, under any spelling. Such claims are the source of data furnished by this office in regard to soldiers of the Revolutionary War. The record has been found of a Nathaniel Malleroy or Mallary, the only soldier of that name in whose record it is shown ever resided in Vermont, and it is furnished below as shown in the papers on file in pension claim, R. 6842, based upon his service in the Revolutionary War.
The date and place of this soldier's birth and names of his parents are not given.
Nathaniel Malleroy or Mallary applied for pension on May 13, 1818, at which time he was aged sixty-five years eleven months and was a resident of Steuben County, New York. He stated that he volunteered April 29, 1775, in Wells, Rutland County, Vermont, and served under Colonel Ethan Allen and was in the battles of Ticonderoga, Crown Point, and Saint Johns; that he enlisted the latter part of May or first of June, 1775, at Crown Point, in that part of Charlotte County which later became Essex County, New York, served as private in Captain Robert Cochran's company, Colonel James Easton's Mass regiment, and was discharged December 1, 1775; that he reenlisted on the day of his discharge, served in Captain Robert Cochran's company, Colonel John Brown's regiment, was at the storming of Quebec and was discharged May 6, 1776; that he entered the ranging service in June, 1776, in Granville, in that part of Charlotte County which later became Washington County, New York, that he served as lieutenant under the promise of receiving a commission, which commission he never

received, in the company commanded by Captain Lieutenant Gideon Squires, in Major Hoisington's corps of rangers and served until June, 1777; that he again entered the service as a volunteer June 28, 1777, at Ticonderoga, was a the capture of Burgoyne at Saratoga, then discharged.
The soldier's claim for pension was not allowed as he did not serve nine consecutive months in the Continental Establishment which was the requirement of the pension law.

No family data are shown in the claim.
