Sir,
In reply to your communication of the 12 th inst. ultimo, I have the honor to state that, from the data furnished it is impossible to say whether there is any thing due the heirs of George Tyler an alleged revolutionary soldier. It would de- pend upon the proof offered of service - the date of his death - the date of his marriage - and date of the death of his widow, if he left one. No can information be afforded as to the mode of procedure to obtain what may be found to be due, (if any thing) unless there are proof facts and facts be sent given.
Very respectfully &c
George Tyler Box 790 St. Louis, Missouri

Dear Sir,
Can you give me information as to George Sylvers (Carolina Co. Va.) service in Rev. War? also John Rouzee or Rouzie or any one by the name who served in Rev. War. Joseph Pleasant possibly was a Rev. Soldier. I have cause to believe so. All three were Virginians. The Rouzies or Rouzees (formerly spelled Rowzee but now Rouzie) may have been from Ewing. Any information, other than the War record will be greatly appreciated also. His date & ancestry if available.
Thanking you for the favor. Mrs. M. B. Fetty. Linneus, Mo.
Find Stamp for reply.

Madam:
I have to advise you that from the papers in Revolutionary War pension claim, R.10791 , it appears that on January 12, 1854, George Tyler of Saint Louis, Missouri, aged 65 years, applied for pension on account of the services of his father, George Tyler, who resided in Caroline County, Virginia, during the Revolution and alleged that he served as an officer in a Virginia Regiment during the entire War of the Revolution and was at the surrender of Yorktown.
His claim was not allowed as he failed to furnish specific proof of service as required by the pension laws.
There is no further data on file as to the soldier or his family.
Respectfully,
Acting Commissioner.
