Sir:
I have to advise you from the papers in the Revolutionary War pension claim R. 11162, it appears that Jotham Warren applied for pension April 30, 1851, while a resident of Lisbon New London County, Connecticut, aged ninety-one years, and alleged that he served in the War of the Revolution, as a fifer and drummer under Captains Sherebiah Butts, Titus Bailey, William Tyler, and Joshua Dunlap. No dates of service given, nor is the place of his residence at time of enlistment stated.
The claim was not allowed, as there was no proof of service, as required by the pension laws.
There are no data as to family.
Respectfully,
WINFIELD SCOTT Commissioner.
