Jacob Tubbs

I, Jacob Tubbs, a resident citizen of the United States of America, an inhabitant of Norway in the county of Oxford and State of Massachusetts, on oath declare, that on the first of January A.D. 1776, at Pownbroke in said State, I enlisted into the army of said United States, on the continental establishment for the term of one year as a private soldier in Capt. W m Reed's company, Col. John Bailey's regiment, in the Massachusetts line, which term of one year I fully served as aforesaid in the State of New-York. I was in the battle of East Chester, and of White-Plains, and several small skirmishes. At the expiration of said year I was verbally discharged by my Captain at or near Fishkill. I further testify, that I am sixty five years of age, am not borne on any pension list of the United States; and by reason of my reduced circumstances in life I stand in need of some pecuniary country for support. Wherefore I pray, that this declaration may be transmitted to the Secretary at War to the end that I may be placed on the pension list of the United States agreeably to the provisions of an act of Congress passed March 18. 1818, entitled "An act to provide for certain persons engaged in the land & naval service of the United States, in the revolutionary war."
Jacob Tubbs.
We, Joshua Brooks of Minot in the county of Cumberland and Benjamin Cox of Sumner in the county of Oxford & State aforesaid, on oath declare, that we were in the continental service in the revolutionary war, and served as fellow soldiers in the same company with the above named Jacob Tubbs during the term of one year above said; and to our certain knowledge said Tubbs served the said term of one year

as he has stated in the above declaration by him subscribed
