I Martha Frizzle of Vershire in the County of Orange & State of Vermont aged eighty two years, widow of John Frizzle late of said Vershire deceased, a revolutionary Pensioner, who for many years before his removal to said Vershire resided in Thetford in Orange County do hereby depose & testify, in addition to my statement heretofore made & forwarded to the Commissioner of Pensions at Washington, that from dates & transactions recorded in the old document hereunto annexed, which was an account book of my said husband, John Frizzle, which I have found among his papers since I made said statement, I am able to fix with more certainty; the date of my marriage with the said John Frizzle. I well recollect that my said husband spent two seasons in Vermont in said Thetford before our marriage, the first season as he always told me he worked for Gustavous Fellows for his land, the second season he cleared a part of his land & built a log house; the next winter which was in 1789 in February, we were married. By turning to the old Book herewith transmitted, the 4th page, my said husband in his own handwriting, as will be perceived, made this entry "May the 4 1787 Begun to work for Gustavous Fellows seven mons" - am confident that this entry was made by my husband in his own hand the first season he spent in Thetford, as he never to my knowledge worked for said Fellows by the month after our marriage. On another Page in this book this entry will be found, which is also in my said husbands hand writing "Thetford May the 11, 1789 William Hill by an to work for all Adolphus Fellows". This Wm. Hill was a Black Boy who came with us to said Thetford the same winter of our marriage
Page 18

and the next spring my said husband put him to work with the said Adolphus Fellows. My oldest child Hannah was born in about eleven months after our marriage who will be Fifty next January. My next child Patty was born in July 1791 & is a year & a half younger than Hannah. We had five other children - Eliakim, Sally, Polly, John & William, the last two of whom are dead. I am now confident that I am not mistaken in the above dates. I can only repeat that I was married by the Revd Mr. Lyman in Woodstock South Parish, state of Connecticut and as I am now very certain in the month of Feby 1789 - to the said John Frizzle. My maiden name was Martha Ballard. As I had no record of my marriage, when I made my first statement was not careful to compare the age of my first child with the date of my marriage. I was a little at a loss about the year when it took place. And as before stated I had not then discovered the annexed old Book which fully confirms me in my present recollections.

I William Heaton of Thetford in the County of Orange & State of Vermont aged Seventy two
years depose & say that I have lived in said town of
Thetford ever since I was nine years old & have
been well acquainted with Mr John Frizzle &
his wife Martha Frizzle who has made the foregoing affidavit for a pensions & their family. I well recollect that the said John Frizzle worked with Gustavus Fellows one season before his marriage & that in a year or two afterwards not exceeding two, he went to Connecticut & returned with the said Martha Frizzle & called her his wife & they ever after lived together as husband & wife & have brought up a large family of children & have been reckoned among our most respectable & worthy people. From my acquaintance with Hannah Frizzle & Patty, the children named in the foregoing affidavit I have no doubt that their ages are stated correctly. & thought I have no particular data by which to determine & have no doubt that the said John Frizzle came first into Thetford as early as 1787 & married as her foregoing affidavit. & am well acquainted with the hand writing of John Frizzle deceased, & have no doubt but the book hereunto annexed containing the entries alluded to in the said affidavit, which I have examined, is in the hand writing of said John Frizzle & were made by him at the time purported by their dates. I have written my name in my own hand on the 3d page of said Book. William Heaton

Miss Florence H. Sturtevant,
Hartland, Vermont.
Madam:

In response to your letter of the 13" instant,
you are advised that when you made inquiry last March
in regard to a soldier of the Revolution named John
Frizzell, you stated that he served in the French and
Indian War as well as in the Revolution, and that he
married Patty or Martha Bartlett who was born August
16, 1739. You were advised on March 13, 1915, that the
Revolutionary War records of this Bureau failed
to afford any information in regard to John Frizzell
described by you.
The only Revolutionary War pensioner of similar
name found on the records of this Bureau is John
Frissell or Frizzle who enlisted at Woodstock, Connecticut
, and in 1777 was serving in Captain Paul Brigham
's company of Connecticut troops, but as he was
born in 1755, he was not old enough to have served in
the French and Indian War.
He married in Woodstock, Connecticut, Martha
Ballard who was born in 1756, and he died at Vershire
Page 22

Vermont, in 1837.
It would not appear therefore that he was the person whose record you desire, especially as you stated in your letter of the 13th instant that the subject of your inquiry died at Northfield, Massachusetts in 1815, and that his wife was of said place.
Your attention is called to the record of John Frizzle of the 8th regiment Connecticut Line, as reported on page 233 of the volume entitled "The Record of Connecticut men in the Military and Naval Service during the War of the Revolution" which reads as follows; John Frizzle; company. Brigham; date of enlistment April 16, '77; term 8 months; discharged January 1, '78.
You should consult the Adjutant General of the State of Vermont in regard to the data furnished you by him relative to John Frizzel.
Very respectfully,
G. M. Saltzgaber
Commissioner.

She enclosed a report to her from Asst Adj. Gen of VT which she requested to have returned. it was dated Monpelier May 11, 1915
"The Connecticut Rolls show that John Frizzell enlisted from Brigham April 16th 1777 in Eighteenth Regiment, Connecticut Line, Discharged January 1, 1778. WAs a pensioner when he resided in Vermont. (Place of residence not given)" signed

G.M. Saltzgaber
Commissioner

Dear Sir
Last March I wrote your office concerning several Revolutionary soldiers, asking if they had received pensions.
You replied that only one of those I mentioned, viz : Richard Lyman, was to be found on your records.
One of the names I inquired for was that of John Frizzell.
I have just received a letter, which I enclose with this, from the Adj. Gen. of Vt. saying that John Frizzell was a pensioner.
S I am at a loss to know which is right. Another thing I do not understand is that there seems to be no such place as Brigham.
There is a town of that name in Utah, and a Brigham Hill near Worcester, Mass. It must be the old name of some town.
John Frizzell as I know of him was born in Framingham, lived in Northfield Mass or near there and died in Northfield 1815. He married  Martha Bartlett of Northfield
John Frizzell or Frizel is also mentioned on the Mass. Rolls as having enlisted from Walpole, N.H.
Page 61

and served in a Mass. Rgt on the Ledington alarm Apr. 19, 1775.
I suppose both these military records are of the same man, but are anxious to prove it.
Will you please look again in your records, and if John Frizell or his widow received a pension tell me all you can of his military records and the vital statistics concerning him and his family.
Yours very truly,
Florence H. Sturtevant

Sir
At the request of Mrs. Martha Frizzle I herewith transmit to you her additional statement, in proof of her marriage to the late John Frizzle deceased with the old Account Book of her husband and also the affidavit of William Heaton Esqr - she hopes that then additional proofs and
circumstances will satisfy the department as to the time of her marriage - I understand from Mr Heaton, that the affidavit of a person present at the marriage has already been furnished, together with the certificate of the town Clerk of Woodstock where she was married, that no record of the marriage appears on his Registry

It is truly unfortunate for applicants under the act of 1838, that so little care was taken to record marriages at the early period of the revolution
Very Respectfully your
