I Sarah Fairchild of the Town of Huntington
County of Fairfield & State of Connecticut, being in
the Seventy sixth year of my age, Depose & say,
that I am sister to Thaddeus Bennet late of
Newtown Deceased, that I lived in the house
with said Thaddeus at the late Residence of
of our Deceased Father Capt Thaddeus Bennet
in the Town of Fairfield, Stratfield Parish in
said Fairfield County fa large portion of the time from the commencement of
of the Revolutionary war till said Thaddeus was married
to Martha Hall, now widow of sd Thaddeus.
that said Thaddeus went as a private in the Strat-
field Company of Militia to New York, in the
year 1776. That our Father Capt. Thaddeus Bennet
was Capt. of said Company, that our Father returned
from New York sick & died in a few months after his
return. I recollect also that a man named Boroughs
was Lieut. of said Company, that sd Boroughs came home
sick & died in a few days after his return, that said
Thaddeus afterward performed guard service but
I cannot tell the particular Guard stations. I also
say that I was keeping house for said Thaddeus at
the time he was married to sd Martha Hall, that I should
think it was in the month of February 1782 at the
the late Residence of our deceased Father in sd Stratfield
I saw the marriage ceremony performed by Rev
Robert Ross Minister of sd Stratfield Parish. I know it
was in the time of the war, for I well recollect, that, after
the marriage ceremony was over, Rev Mr Ross & our Step-
Father, Ebenezer Hall, sat by the fire in the Parlour &
conversed about the war, that Mr Ross said to Father
Hall, I think you Tories miss it in doing as you do
that said Hall replied, I think you, Mr Ross missed
it  in courting Abigail Dolbier, Mr Ross an-
swered , the wisest man in the world

may make so great a mistake, that the
bigest fool in the Country can see it.

I Silas Bennett of the Town of Southbury County of New Haven & State of Connecticut being in the Seventy third year of my age depose and say that I am son of Capt T[illegible] Bennett of the town of Fairfield in Fairfield County in sd" Connecticut & Brother to Thaddeus Bennett Jr. That I lived in the house with sd" Thaddeus Bennett Jr. till some time in the month of May 1779. After that time my Mother having become the wife of Ebenezer Hall of said Fairfield I lived a part of the time with said Hall and a part of the time with said Thaddeus Bennett Jr. till some time in the month of April seventeen hundred eighty two at which time I left to go and learn a trade. That I remember that sd" Thadeus Bennett Jr was drafted & went to New York in the Stratfield Militia Company, as a private in the year seventeen hundred seventy six, that our Father Capt. Thaddeus Bennett was Captain of said Company, that I recollect his returning from sd" New York, but cannot tell the exact length of time he was gone, should think it was some where from two to three months. That our father came home sick and died some months after his return. That the said Thaddeus Bennett Jr. was on guard at Black Rock some time, but do not recollect the number of months, but I well recollect going frequently myself to Black Rock to carry provisions and other things to sd" Thaddeus Bennett Jr while he was on guard and that I staid with him, usually, through the night. That at one time
Page 19

when I staid over night the command-
ing officer gave judgement in the
Morning that two of the men should
be cobbed, that he gave them their
choice, to cobb each other
or to have some other person perform
the service that they chose to do
it themselves-- that I saw them go
through with the performance -- do not
recollect for a certainty what year
this was, but should think it was
in the year seventeen hundred seventy
eight. That the said Thaddeus Bennet
was on guard for some time on the beach
between Bridgeport (then Newfield) and
Black Rock, that the guard house was a
small house, near the corner where
we turned to go to the stores at Newfield
That I used to see him frequently and spend
some time with him that William Hall
was an officer of that guard, and should
think that that Amos Beardsley was an
under officer- should think that Peter
Rose and Ebenezer Gregory belonged to
the guard. That I was present at the
time said Thaddeus Bennet Jr was
married to Martha Hall, which I
should think was in the year seventeen
hundred eighty two, I know it was before
I went to learn my trade, which was in
the month of April in the year seventeen
hundred eighty two, Sally Plant (now Sally
Benjamin), and my sister Sarah Bennet
(now Sarah Fairchild) were at the
wedding. The ceremony was performed
by Rev. Robert Ross the minister of
said Stratfield Parish

was Lieutenant of said Militia Company, which
was Infantry and belong'd to Col. Ichabod
Lewis Regiment in General Gould Sillimans
Brigade, being the same Regiment that was after-
wards commanded by Col Saml Whiting, which
was Connecticut Militia; One reason why he re-

the Newyork is, that Deponent had a Brother
who went to New York with said-
Militia Company - he fully believes that said
Thadeus served at least two months faithfully in
said Militia Company. Also remembers that said
Thadeus was married to said Martha Hall in

see by the Compt Certificate
that he does not find any
evidence in his office to
confirm the service of Insign
Saml Sillaman at Black

and on that account I have
taken the Deposition of Ebenezer

viz Thaddeus Hubbell & Elisha Bennet
that Thaddeus Bennet served
then I think there cannot

and I wish you Examine Thaddeus

Dear Sir: -
My grand-father, Thaddeus Bennett Sr., was a private in Captain
William Blain's Company of Col. John Hawthorn's regiment of Orange County
New York militia in the Revolutionary war and, I believe was a pensioner
and that you are likely to have his declaration for pension in your of-
fice. If so, I would be pleased if you would send me the substance of his
declaration for pension, as the Hon. Nelson W. Evans of Portsmouth, Ohio,
is preparing a history and biography of the early pioneers of Scioto
County, Ohio, and has written to me to aid him in giving the history.
of my grand-father's settlement in said County, who settled there in 1818
He also asks me to give him as near as I possibly can his services in
the Revolutionary War in the Continental army. Please let me hear from
you and if you can give me any aid in the matter please do so.
Respectfully yours,
B. F. Bennett.

The information concerning the issuance of warrants carded on this form is found in volumes 2 to 4 of ""Land Warrants Issued Prior to 1800"" which are
registers of bounty land warrants issued to non-commissioned officers and privates under congressional resolutions of September 16, 1776, and subse-
quent dates. Other records relative to the applications for warrants appear to have been destroyed in the War Department fire of November 9, 1800.
Information concerning warrants surrendered to the Federal Government is to be found in General Land Office records in The National Archives.
