Joseph Wood Lieutenant Colonel
In the report of the Secretary of War printed in 1835, in regard to the Pension Establishment, on a list of invalid pensioners who have been in receipt of pensions at the Agency of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, whose residences could not be ascertained in consequence of destruction of papers of the War Office in 1800 and 1814, the name of Joseph Wood is listed as lieutenant colonel, Revolutionary Army, pensioned at the rate of $180 per annum under the act of June 7, 1785.
There are no papers on file which contain the statements made at the time this application for pension was submitted because, as stated above, of the destruction of papers when the War Office was burned. Therefore, this office has no information in regard to that soldier's service or family.
