State of Kentucky Green County set on this 16th day of June 1834 personally appeared in open court before the Justices of the green County court now sitting Hugh Warren a resident of the County and State aforesaid aged 70 years who being first duly sworn according to law doth on his oath make the following Declaration in order to attain the benefit of the act of Congress passed June 7th 1832. That in the spring or first of the summer of the year 1779 as well as he now recollects (though of the date of the year he cannot speak with certainty) in the District of 96, State of South Carolina he volunteered and entered into the service of the united states as a private soldier under the command of Captain Deanis Tramell, that to the best of his recollections he was two years under the orders of Captain Tramell from the time he first entered into service under his command that when he volunteered and joined Captain Tramell's company he does not recollect that it was for any certain period of time, that he considered himself bound to serve when called upon, and that he did serve according to the orders of his captain whenever his services was thought necessary, that all his service under Captain Tramell was rendered in short tours of from one to two and three weeks each tour; that after serving one of these short tours he generally returned home and remained at home generally a few days before he started on another tour; but that he does not now think he was ever
Page 4

longer than one week or at farthest ten days at home at any one time during the two years he was under the order of Captain Tramell; and very often his stay at home did not exceed 2 or 3 days; that he lived in what was then called the District of 96 about 12 miles from Waughfords [Wofford's] Iron works and within less than a mile of Packalette [Pacolet] River and he ^thinks it was called [crossed out word] 80 ^miles from where lived to the Town and Fort of 96 that he served against the British Indians and Tories but chiefly against the Tories, that all his service under Captain Tramell was rendered in the District of 96; that in his scouting tours of service he generally marched from 40 to 80 miles from his place of residence, that the most of his service was rendered on the waters of Packlet [Pacolet], Tiger [Tyger], Saluda, and Broad Rivers, which Rivers they frequently crossed in Their marches; that he cannot now give the precise length of any of their short tours of service, that from loss of memory it is not possible for him now to give any better description of these short tours of service that he has done above, he cannot now even recollect how many of them he served, nor what length of time he was at home during the two years, but he knows that he was not during the 2 years employed in any civil pursuit, and that he spent the whole of his time during the two years in service of short tours, remaining at home a few days at the end of each tour as above set forth that he never had any written discharge from Captain Tramell -
Page 5

that he again volunteered in the District of 96 State of South Carolina and entered into service under Captain Jeremiah Dickson Anthony Coltes was Lieutenant; John Roebuck was Colonel; he marched under the command of said officers against the British and Tories through the Country around 96. The town of 96 was then in possession of the enemy, and they endeavoured to draw the enemy of from the Town by marching through the Country around it This could not however be effected; he served 4 weeks as a private in the malitia and was then verbally discharged and returned ^home he cannot speak of the date of this or any of his other tours of service with any degree of certainty owing to the loss of memory: but as well as he can recollect it was in the year 1781 and about the month of July when he entered upon the last mentioned tour- that a short time after the tour last named, he volunteered again and entered into service in the District of 96 South Carolina, under the command of Capt Jeremiah Dickson; John Roebuck was the Colonel, as near as he can now recollect it was in the month of August in the year 1781, he marched against the British and Tories through the Country lying between his residence and the Town o f 96 and had a slight skirmish with the enemy commanded by a Tory called Cunningham, but it was slight and no lives were lost he served 3 weeks and was then discharged verbally
Page 6

and returned home-
that in the month of September as well as he recollects and in the year of 1781 in the District of 96 he was drafted for a tour of 3 months, and entered into service in Captain Callers company John Roebuck was Colonel and John Ford was Major, that they marched to reinforce General Green who was then near Charleston, they joined General Greens army a short distance from a fortification called a block house then in possession of the enemy, they were then stationed under General Dickins about half a mile from General Greens, encampment; that he was drafted and entered into service for a tour of 3 months but his service was not that long required, and he served 8 weeks and was then verbally discharged and returned home-
that in the latter part of the year 1781 as well as he now recollects, in the District of 96 South Carolina he was drafted and entered into service in Captain Anthony Colters company the Lieutenant was Willian Dickson, he marched against the Indians across the River Savannah near its head, thence into the Indian nation, visited and destroyed 2 small towns, killed a few Indians and one white man by the name of [illegible] who was with them, the officers under whom he served he understood to be under the orders of General Dickins, the precise length of this tour of service he cannot
Page 7

now recollect but he feels certain it was not less than 4 weeks; he had not written discharge-
that in the month of January in the year 1782 to the best of his recollection in the District of 96 State of South Carolina he volunteered and entered into service in Captain Parsons company; Parsons he understood to be under the command of Col Roebuck, he marched under said Captain against the Indians to the head of the Tiger [Tyger] River and was there stationed, from that stations he marched against the Indians at least half a dozen short tours he started from the stations each time and after [illegible] the Indian Country around [scribbled out word] it [scribbled out word] returned to [scribbled out] [scribbled out] the station each time, but he was the most of the time at the station, that he served under captain Parsons at the station and in scouting tours around it 12 months as a volunteer and private soldier and was then verbally discharged and returned home, he states that from age and loss of memory he has not been able to state with [crossed out word]
Page 8

certainty the dates of his diferent tours of service but that the dates given above are as near correct as he can give them, he further states that he has a record of his age and by that record he was born the 5th day of January 1764, that he was born in the State of Virginia, but his parents moved to South Carolina when he was quite young, that all his service was rendered as a private soldier in the militia and he was acquainted with few officers except those above named that he is well acquainted with many persons in his present neighborhood who can testify to his character for veracity and among them ne names Abel Elkins and James Meers, he moved from South Carolina to Kentucky about 34 years since and has lived in Kentucky ever since and now lives in Green County, he hereby relinquishes every claim to a pension or annuity except the present and declares his name is not on the pension roll of any agency in any state sworn in & subscribed the day and year aforesaid

Hugh Warren
S. 31453
Dear Madam:
Reference is made to your letter in which you request the Revolutionary War record of Hugh Warren of North Carolina.
The record of Hugh Warren is furnished herein as found in the papers on file in his claim for pension, S. 31453, based upon his service in that war.
Hugh Warren was born January 5, 1764, in Virginia and moved with his parents when quite young to South Carolina; the names of his parents are not shown. At the time he served in the Revolutionary War, he resided about twelve miles from Wofford's Iron Works within less than half a mile of the Pacolet River in Ninety-Six District, South Carolina.
He volunteered about June 1779, and served at various times until the close of the war, amounting in all to more than two years, as a private under Captains DennisTrammel [Dennis Trammel], Jeremiah Dickson(Dixon), Anthony Coulter, John Lawson and Parsons and Colonel John Roebuck in the South Carolina troops; during the period of his service he was out against the Indians and Tories, was in several engagements with them, assisted in destroying the Indian Towns, and was in the battle of Cowpens.
There is a South Carolina State report in this claim which shows that Hugh Warren, Sr., and Hugh Warren, Jr., rendered service in the South Carolina troops during the same period, on horseback from February 1, 1783 to July 15, 1783, as certified by Captain Parsons. 
The soldier resided in South Carolina until about 1800, then moved to Kentucky. 
Hugh Warren was allowed pension on his application executed
Page 10

June 16, 1834, at which time he resided in Green County, Kentucky. He resided in the county in 1845. 
There is no reference to wife or children of Hugh Warren in his claim for pension.
It was stated that William Warren enlisted with Hugh Warren and served in the South Carolina troops on tours during the Revolution-ary War; said William Warren was referred to as of Green County, Kentucky, in 1840. In 1845, James Warren, aged ninety-six years and a resident of said Green County, stated that he served also from South Carolina in the Revolution. No relationship between these other Warrens and the soldier, Hugh Warren, was stated.
Very truly yours,
A. D. HILLER,
Executive Assistant to the Administrator.

Sir I enclose and forward you the papers in support of the claim of Hugh Warren for a pension; in preparing the claim I have found that the applicants memory does not enable him to give a full and minute account of each of his tours of service under Captain Tramell; he has a distinct recollection of his service under Captain Tramell according to the manner it is set forth in his Declaration, but as he served so many short tours under Tramell he cannot enter into a minute detail of each of the tours what marches separately; I have found it impossible for him to state anything more satisfactory in relation to his service under Capt. Tramell than he has done; The Department will therefore please to act upon that part of his service and make him such allowance for it as they may think just and right; verry respectfully your Obdt servant Aaron Harding Jr attorney for Hugh Warren

Dear Sir
Enclosed I send you a letter from a very worthy friend on the subject of Hugh Warrens pension. If it is true as therein state that Warrens pension was Suspended because of doubts as to Trammel his writings- and what Trammel was afterwards allowed a pension, this certainly would remove the difficulty in Warrens case - as cannot be otherwise. The letter also refers to some new proof. Please examine the whole matter carefully and tell me the result. If unfavorable, which I hope will not be the case, send me all the papers that I may lay them before Congress. Return me the letter of Lowles

Kentucky.

Dear Sir:

Reference is made to your letter of April 4, in which
you state you will accept the usual record furnished by this office
in regard to Hugh Warren, S. 31453, Revolutionary War soldier,
instead of photostatic copies of the frail papers. Your kind consideration
is very much appreciated. The papers in that soldier's
claim for pension have been examined carefully for you, and the data
found are given below. The record of William Warren, W. 3056, is
furnished you also, because of the additional family data shown in
his claim which is not shown in the claim of Hugh.

HUGH WARREN-S.31453
Hugh Warren was born January 5, 1764 in Virginia, the county
not given, and moved with his parents, when quite young, to South Carolina; 
the names of his parents are not stated. At the time he served
in the war, he resided about twelve miles from Wofford's Iron works
within less than a mile of the Pacolet River in Ninety-Six District,
South Carolina.

Hugh Warren volunteered about June, 1779, and served at various
times until the close of the Revolutionary War, amounting in all to more than
two years, as a private under Captains Deanis[Dennis] Tramell, Jeremiah
Dickson (or Dixon), Anthony Coulter, John Lawson and Parsons, and Colonel
John Roebuck in the South Carolina troops, against the Indians and Tories,
was in several engagements with them, assisted in destroying Indian towns,
and was in the battle of Cowpens.

There is a South Carolina State report in this claim which shows
that Hugh Warren, Sr., and Hugh Warren, Jr., rendered service in the South
Page 50

Carolina troops during the same period, on horse back from February 1,
1783 to July 15, 1783, as certified by Captain Parsons.
The soldier resided in South Carolina until about 1800, then
moved to Kentucky.
Hugh Warren was allowed pension on his application executed
June 16, 1834, at which time he resided in Green County, Kentucky. He
resided in that same county in 1845.
No reference is made to wife or children in the papers on
file in this claim.
It was stated that William Warren enlisted with Hugh Warren
and served in the South Carolina troops on tours during the Revolutionary 
War; said William was referred to as of Green County, Kentucky, in
1840. In 1845, James Warren, aged ninety-six years and a resident of
said Green County, stated that he served also from South Carolina in
the Revolution. No relationship of these other Warrens to the soldier,
Hugh Warren, is stated in the papers in this claim.
---

WILLIAM WARREN -- W. 3056.
William Warren, son of Hugh Warren, was born in October 1761,
in Virginia, the county not given, and moved when a small boy to South Carolina; 
he was the brother of Hugh Warren.
While a resident of Ninety-Six District, South Carolina, William
Warren volunteered sometime in 1776, and served at various times until
1782, amounting in all to almost two years, as private under Captains
Jeremiah Doty, Deanis[Dennis] Trammell, Jeremiah Dickson[Dixon], and Coulter, and Colonels
Thomas and John Roebuck in the South Carolina troops; he was on expeditions
against the Indians on the Savannah River, and in engagements with the
Tories in South Carolina. His first service in 1776, was rendered as
substitute for his father, Hugh Warren.
The soldier moved about 1796, from South Carolina to Kentucky.
2.
Page 51

William Warren applied for pension October 20, 1834, at
which time he was a resident of Green County, Kentucky. His claim
was allowed.
He died May 10, 1842 in Green County, Kentucky, in which
county he had resided ever since moving from South Carolina.
William Warren married in Greenville District, South Carolina,
Rhoda, whose maiden name is not stated; she was born in 1760 or 1761
in South Carolina. Their marriage took place when they were both
very young, between the years 1774 and 1779, exact time not shown.
The soldier's widow, Rhoda Warren, was allowed pension on her
application executed September 29, 1846, at which time she resided in
Green County, Kentucky. She resided in that county in 1848.
William Warren and his wife, Rhoda, had thirteen children,
namely: Polly, the eldest, born about eighteen months after their marriage,
was about sixty-nine years of age in 1846; Hugh: Elizabeth; Sally; Hardin
Andrew; Frederick William; Nancy; Rhoda; John: Dodson; and Silas, aged
about thirty-nine or forty years in 1846. In that year, many of these
children of the soldier had grandchildren, no names designated.
In 1834, the soldier's brother, Hugh Warren, than seventy years
of age, was a resident of Green County, Kentucky. He was the pensioner
whose record is given above.
In 1845, one Nathan Warren made affidavit in Green County, Kentucky, 
in behalf of the soldier's widow, Rhoda, but stated no relationship. 
In 1846, one Frederick Warren was a resident of Green County, Kentucky; 
it is not shown whether he was the soldier's son. In 1846, James
Warren was a resident of said Green County, and stated that he had known
the soldier, William Warren, and his wife, at the time of their marriage,
having lived within two miles of them at that time. The soldier's widow,
Rhoda, referred to a James Warren as her brother-in-law; it is not stated
whether they were the same James.

Dear Sir:
Reference is made to your letter in which you request
photostatic copies of papers on file in Revolutionary War claim
for pension of Hugh Warren (S.31453) of Green County, Kentucky.
The number of pages to be copied in that soldier's cliam
is twenty-five. The cost will be fifteen cents a page. If you
desire to have them certified, the additional cost will be twenty-five
cents for the set.
Pleas make remittance by money order drawn to the order 
of the Treasurer of the United States.
It may be stated further, that these papers wil be examined
very carefully in your behalf and a report furnished you,
without cost, which will include all data found pertaining to the 
soldier's age, residence, service and family. The papers in this 
claim are very frail and brittle and to have photostatic copies
made will be very injurious to them, because of that fact and because
of the manner in which they are fastened under the old seals.

Very truly yours,
