Dear Sir:
In your letter of Jan 6 1932, information in regard to Alexander McCuller of McCulloch, based on Revolutionary War Pension Claim No. S-4196, he was indicated as having lived prior to the Revolution in Burke County, Ga. and at Augusta, Richmond County, Ga., having entered USA at Savannah and presumably remained there awhile before moving to Augusta. If the record discloses dates covering
the stay at these points or counties, this information will be appreciated.
It has been indicated also that following the
Revolution he lived in Burke, Greene and Clarke Counties, Georgia, also in Franklin County, Tennessee, and in McNairy County, Tennessee. Does the record disclose dates or points in these counties?
It was also indicated that he lived "On the Pearl River in Mississippi" and I beg to inquire whether the record discloses the date or time
he lived there and also whether any indication as to the point on the river, whether later identified by county or town or Government
or State land.
As I understand it there is no data in connection with this claim relative to name of his wife, date of marriage, nor birth of his eldest son John.
Sorry to trouble you further but will appreciate this further consideration.
Yours truly,
L B McCullough
L. B. McCullough.
Nothing in record to indicate having lived in Missouri, nor in the counties of Lowndes, Panola and Yalobusha in Mississippi, nor at
Nashville, Tenn? Thank you.
