Sir
Inclosed are the documents relative to the estate
and income of Elias Badeau a Pensioner under the
law of 1818 made in conformity with the general
instructions from the War Department.
Mr. Badeau is an inhabitant of this city 
and altho he has for many years been very poor
he's universally esteemed and revered for his eminent virtues
& piety. Since receiving the first installment
on his pension he obtained a title to a small lot
in the City upon which he has been laboring
to
erect a small tenement for a residence during the
remnant of his life, and altho from the unfavorable
change in the times it has depreciated in his purchase 
& he has become indebted to more than the present 
value of his property, his creditors have been satisfied
to grant him all necessary indulgence, trusting
that
his resourse under the act of 1818 would enable him
to discharge his debts contracted, & finally
to hold his
small have lot
Yours very respectfully

Troy (N.Y.) July 31st 1820
Sir
We take the liberty of asking your attention
for a moment to the case of Elias Badean late a
pensioner under the act of the 18th March 1818. whose
pension has just been discontinued by virtue of the act
of May 1st, 1820
When the law of 18th March was enacted Mr Badeau
was considerably infirm & not worth Twenty Dollars
Altho extremely industrious & frugal, he had for a long time
previously been very poor, in consequence of a protracted
indisposition of his wife & had received aid from the hand
of private charity His life has been singularly inoffensive & exemplary
On receipt of his pension he was offered a cheap lot in the 
City & [illegible] to put up a small tenement for a permanent home
upon condition that he would appropriate in
payment, annually fifty dollars part of his
pension, as it should be received.  Encouraged by the bounty 
of the government & kindness of his neighbors he ventured
to purchase & had just fitted up his humble dwelling
in doing this he has however contracted a debt larger
than the whole cash value of his little possession, which
fact has been proved, we are informed & is certified by
the Court to your Department.
unless Mr Bedeau's case can be reconsidered
Page 16

the pension act of 18th March will prove seriously
injurious to him-- for he must be immediately
dispossened of his dwelling & his all, & thrown upon
public or private charity with a small debt preping
unless he can be restored to the pension list.
We have no hesitation in saying, that Mr
Bedeau is one of the very needy survivors of
the Revolutionary Army on whom in our
opinion the bounty of the Government was
intended
With great respect we remain
Your obt humble svtes,

Jno D. Dirkins

Gentlemen 
please give me all information regarding

of the name Barbeau, Its a french Hugonot family.
Please trace thru the War of 1812 so we
can get the Civil War connection

I'd greatly appreciate a very prompt reply-
