Griffin Fountleroy was made Lieutenant in his place.  The name of the ensign of the company was Fox.  He enlisted in Charlottesville in Albermarle County, and state of Virginia, in which county and state he resided at the time, and was at Charlottesville guarding some prisoners, British and Scotch, taken at Norfolk.  At this time the celebrated Tory, Guthrie, was in confinement in Charlottesville in the house of old Mr. Jouett, father of Captain Mat Jouett.  During his first term of enlistment, he was in no engagement or battle. He marched through Louisa County ...... thence into New Kent County, thence into James City County passing through Williamsburgh into York County, and through Gloucester County down to Gwinn (Gwynn) Island at which place the troops had had an engagement with Dunmore and driven him out a short time before he (this applicant) reached that place. From Gwinn (Gwynn) Island, we were marched up to Yorktown, from thence to Williamsburgh where we remained until we took up winter quarters, and having after Christmas been marched back to Yorktown, we tarried there a few days, and were then ordered to the south passing various placed too mention until, in the month of February, 1777, we reached Philadelphia where the regiment was, by order of Gen. Washington, inoculated for the smallpox.
      On the 24th day of March, 1777, this applicant and many others enlisted at Philadelphia for the term of three years under the same officers in the same company and regiment.  From Philadelphia in the month of May, we were marched through Trenton, Princeton, Somerset, and a small place called Placemain- we at length reached Bonbrook the same day on which General Lincoln and his men were defeated by the British from Brunswick.

Page 5

(  ) Bonbrook, we were marched to Morristown where General Washington had his headquarters during the winter preceding.  This applicant states that he served out the term of his enlistment and his service closed in Philadelphia where he had reenlisted in 1777.  His first term of enlistment, it will be perceived, had not fully expired when he reenlisted, nor were any regular discharges given to those who did reenlist, but when his second enlistment was out, he was regularly discharged by Col. Fulaker, to whom that duty was assigned by General Washington, and the troops of the company to which this applicant belonged was marched from Philadelphia to Alexandria by 1st Lt. Overton, who presented the discharges to the troops.
      He states that in the year 1784, he removed to Kentucky, in which state he has resided ever since.  While in removing being great exposed to rainstorms, he lost his discharge as he supposes-never having been since able to find it.  He states that beside several slight skirmishes with the enemy in which he was engaged during his second enlistment, he was in two general battles-to wit-the Battle of Brandywine, on the 11th Sept. 1777, and the Battle of Monmouth, New Jersey, on the 28th June 1778, in each of which he honestly discharged his duty as a soldier.
       He hereby relinquishes every claim whatever to a pension or an annuity except the present - and he declares his name is not on the Pension Roll of any agency in any state whatever.
      Subscribed sworn to, this day and year (  )
