Gentlemen:
I am tracing a Revolutionary War pensioner named Henry White, who was born about 1839, and served in the Mass., Line. He was granted a pension on his application dated April 10, 1818 aged 79 years and received $1478.66, at an allowance of $96.00, annually, so must have lived quite a long time. His application for a pension is published in the Vol. II, of the U. S. Congressional
Records of the 1st Session, 23rd Congress, Under Pensioners in Onondaga County, N. Y.
I desire his place of enlistment and date of death or the last pension payment and other information on file in this application and will appreciate your assistance.
Very Sincerely
Mrs. Charles R. Wilkes

My dear Sir:
Your letter under date of May 9th, in answer to my query of March 20th, has been received and the data inclosed is appreciated. But I regret the delay in receiving a transcript of the pension application on Henry White of Onondaga county, N. Y. and of William White of Steuben County, as these pensioners are not identical with those sent to Prof, White of Lincoln, Nebraska. It has been evident that there several soldiers of the same names in these counties and I have been working hard to keep their records straight.
I am enclosing once more the data I found in the published records of the 1st Session, 23 rd Congress of the U. S. In which the pension applications are published and these men were not the ones you have sent Mr. White.
ONONDAGA COUNTY, N.Y.  HENRY WHITE, placed on the rolls Mar. 22, 1819, to day April 10, 1818, aged 79 years. Received an annual allowance of $96, and the total amount was $1478.66, So he must have lived about 15 years. He was born about 1739. STEUBEN COUNTY, N. Y.  WILLIAM WHITE (II), was placed on the rolls June 30, 1819, to day May 22, 1818, aged 77 years (born 1742). He received the sum of $1427.43 at $96, annually. The date of death would be determined by the date of last pension payment.
I will be grateful for a prompt reply if possible.
Very Sincerely Mrs. Harry D. Pritchard
