On this eighth day of September one thousand Eight hundred and forty five before the subscriber one of the associate judges in and for said county. Personally appeared Rebecca Tull a resident of said county and state aged Eighty four years past who being by me first duly sworn according to law doth on her oath make the following Declaration in order to obtain the benefits of the provisions made by the acts of Congress passed July 7th 1838, March 3, 1848 and June 17, 1844. That she is the widow of Jesse Tull who was a private in the Revolutionary War and served for three years as an enlisted soldier from the state of Delaware Sussex County. She cannot tell the time exactly when he was enlisted but thinks from the best of her recollection about the commencement of the War and served for three years when he was wounded in the shoulder by moving a cannon, that he was hurt so much so that he was unable to bear arms and was discharged, and that he never got well entirely of his wound. She thinks the name of the Captain that he was under was by the name of Wallace. She cannot recollect the names of any other officers that he was under. She further states that she was married to the aforesaid Jesse Tull her deceased husband on the 18th day of January one thousand seven hundred and eighty five (1785) in the county of Susex and state of Delaware by

Dear Sir
   Your letter of the 18th instant to my
father enclosing a letter to you from Mr Manly
in which the latter gentleman seeks for
some "evidence of the services in the Revolution of Jesse Tull," was received yesterday.
   As affording an opening ridge to the devised
evidence, Mr M. asks for the name and address
of the person who now has or did have in his
possession some papers of the late May Patten
which are entrusted to him for the purpose of
promoting the claims of the line of May Patten
to claim military bounties to which they
considered themselves entitled. The name of
that person was Robert Hood, and at the time
he got possession of the above mentioned papers he resided at Port Royal, Caroline Co. Ga
   Not having heard from Hord for some
years and supposing that his efforts of the
war made any, to recover anything for happen
Fallen him were further, I endeavored
at the instigation of my uncle J.M. Patten
to get back the papers having in the first
place, through the assistance of a friend in
Kentucky ascertained that Hord was living in
or about a place called Union Coky.
(union Coky or Union Cokey)
Page 24

in that State. I wrote to Hord in
again to the matter, and also to his
brother but without civil.
   If Mr. Manly should be more
fortunate in securing these papers, in which
I have no doubt he would find the evidence
he so much wants, he would do us a
great favor by forwarding them to Wales
as they are valuable to the descendants
of May Patten on many accounts
-
Very Respectfully
Yours
L.E. Wales

Daniel M Bates Esq
Secy of State
P.S.   Hord took away with him quite a number
of papers I give you a list of some of them
to show the nature of their contents,
// a Muster Role of Cpt Jaqetett's Company
         for the par 1780
// a muster role of Cpt Kirkwood's Company
         for the same year.

The 14th Dec 1779, dated Feb. 25 1780-
Mr. Manly may be and I that we are
quite as anxious to get hold of these papers
as he can be, but without he can obtain
a personal interview with Hord he will
not have much chance of laying his
hands on them.

Dear Sir.
Immediately upon the receipt of your letter of the 10th yet. I enclosed it with one from myself to John Wales Esquire, former secretary of State and for whom the letter addressed to you by Mr Patten was written - I have received a reply by Mr Wales' son stating such information as they have in relation to the lost Revolutonary papers, which reply I send you
from the list given by Mr Wales of some of the papers taken away by Hord I doubt whether they will avail Mr. Tull. The papers mentioned on the muster rolls of Capt Jaquett & Kirkwood and a list of officers of the Delaware line, the quarter portion of the rolls of Capt Jaquett & Kirkwood and also of Capt Patten
(afterwards Major ) are in my office and were examined in reference to this case before I last wrote to you-- Hoping that you may yet  succeed in proving Mr Tull's service, I am

   The name of Jesse Tull cannot be
found on the meager Records of the Revolution in the Secretary office, they are very imperfect, and relate to less than a single year. There are two musters of the Regiment made in the year 1780 sometime before the battle of Camden, that were placed in the hands of a gentlemen of Virginia in 1838, they were private property, the return of my father, maps of the Regiments, and addressed to the Governor of the State, and by me of his descendants given to me I have written for the papers, and have some hope of recovering them having taken a receipt for that purpose. If I should get them and the name should be in them, shall be informed of it

Sir -
Your favor of the 5th rust was duly received
with the enclosed $5. With the money I immediately employed a person to make a thorough examination of all the Rolls of the Delaware Regiment in the Continental Army of the Revolution for the services of Jesse Tull Such an examination has been made but I fear without success so far as concerns the  procuring of sufficient legal evidence of the services of Mr Tull. Though there is evidence that in 1776 he was in the Army there is nothing to show the length of his service. The name is found on a single paper, an exact transcript of which I herewith enclose to you. You will observe that the paper contains a list of men belonging to Capt. Woodgate's Company of the Flying Camp, under command of Col. Samuel Patterson -unfortunately
there is not another roll or any kind of paper relating to Capt Woodgate's company except this one. In fact there are but few of the Rolls of other companies of the Flying Camp to be found, such as they are have been examined for Mr Tull's name as also all the Rolls of the Revolutionary army remaining in my office, of which there are several hundred, but without services.
I am Respectfully,

  Col. Ficklin has sent your letter of noth instant in relation to claim of Rebecca Tull widower of Jesse Tull 
   A few days since I enclosed to your office through Hon. J.W. Houston of Delaware, some posting on the subject-- I sent them to look
for his certificate- I have only to refer to my letter accompanying that proof, for my own
opinion about the claim and to say that
I think the claim cotoblie for more than 6 months, but how much more I, of course cannot say.
What was this "Flying Camp" of Delaware?
How was it called into serve & for
how long? It seems to me the uses
to the questions most materially
affect the claim as to amount of allowance

Sir, 
   I have the honor to inform you that the transcript of the returns of Capt Bloodgates; company of the Flying Camp of Delaware transmitted by you in the case of Rebecca Tull, widow of Jesse Tull shows that a soldier bearing her husbands name belonged to that company.
   If Mrs. Tull will produce such evidence of
her marriage before 1794 as was required
by my letter to you of the 14th October, 1845
and can show by the testimony of intelligent
and credible persons who were acquainted with her husband, that he was recognized
as a Revolutionary soldier by his neighbors, her proposition to accept a pension for six months
service may, probably, be acceded to
   The evidence now on file is not sufficient
to show that claimants husband was a Revolutionary soldier or to establish their marriage prior to 1794.

Sir. 
The Hon. M Houston
will lay before you such proof in the
case of Rebecca Tull of Ind
it fills the requirements of your
last report on the case and
cannot fail to be satisfactory-
The only question is as to the amount
of allowance --
The lowest estimate is 6 months pay
as the widow of a Sergeant which
would be I suppose $30 a year
But it is being to be inform?
from the proof an especially from
that adduced by W. Houston that
Jesse Tull served more than 6
month &
I would suggest that
the claim be allowed for 12 months
Indeed had he lines & claimed the
benefits of the act of 7 June 32, the
proof against would have placed
his name in the Rolls at $220.00 a
year for 2 years as a sergeant
Page 37

But I desire that the claim
should be adjusted now at same
rate which you think right
I beg leave to refer you to
your last letter in regards to
this case to Hon. O. B. Filkins

Nicholas Baker died in Nov 
1833 & left a widow who died

April 24th 1848
Sir.
   I have been employed by Mrs. Rebecca Tull of Ind Widow of Jesse Tull to aid her in obtaining her pension under the act of 7 July 1838 and it is my privilege as well as my duty that I make
what I think is a fair statement of her claim
There is no objection to her claim on the grounds that she does not in her Declaration "specify" her husbands' service - she alleges that her husband was wounded in service and she is Sustained in this particular by the
enclosed deposition 
   She alleges that her husband was orderly Sergeant & so shows the Record of the service in Delaware so that she is well identified  s the
widow of the Jesse Tull whose name is home on the Delaware record
   I am aware of the duly objection which
can arise against her claim and that
in the Delaware Record barely show that
he was in service as a sergeant at a
Page 40

specified period without showing
how long he served
Same weight should certainly be
given to the widows' statements
same also to the enclosed deposition
which not only shows and proves
the reputation of his being a soldier
but it certifies him as "lame like"
and showing clearly the truth of the
widows' statements on that subject.
   It will at once be acknowledged
that the testimony enclosed with also
the same declaration of tJesse Tull
and same proof from Records in
Delaware would have placed the
name of Tull on the list under the
act of 7 June 1832 and that
to at $80 a year
I do not know the characters
the troop in which Jesse Tull was
as shown by the record nor how long
that troop was bound to service
but it is by cause known to the
Department. I think if the history
of the service shows that troop was
for instance, harmed to 12 month duty
that under all the instance and proof
Page 41

the widow is entitled to the full benefit
of the same --
If it is thought that only $20
year is made out she will be
content, though I must say that
if the troop to which Tull is shown
to be at a specified period was
bound to 2 years service, the claim
of the widow should be allowed for
the maximum pension of a Sergeant.
It cannot be reasonably dated
that Tull did serve as such 6
mouth - Do you doubt it
I'm in vain to say that you must
in every instance have positive
and indisputable proof-- If you
are satisfied of the alleged facts
beyond a "reasonable doubt" the
same result must follow as when
such proof is made to jury
or a court of Law -
It must be equally impossible that
you can always have positive proof
of the length of time the soldier
served. Suppose for example that a
credible witness swear that witness was for
years a solder in the 7th Infantry
and that A.B. who claims a pension
Page 42

Served either one or two years with that
Regiment but whether one or two years be
from old age and loss of memory, cannot say
and this being all the testimony how much
is he to be allowed-
I beg you to execute this long claim
on the grounds that the old Lady
is poor and I have no doubt hereby
entitled to a pension varying in
amount from $20 to $120 per year
I hope the may not be regarded
as an "old claim" they filed
some 2 years ago so proof
has been offered till within a
short period past.
I hope you may be satisfied with
the proof adduced and that the
Certificate may be sent to me
I am Sir Very Respectfully
