State of New York
Columbia County
On this first day of August 1832 personally appeared in open court before the Justices of the Justices Court of the city of Hudson County aforesaid; now sitting William Trusdail a resident of said city aged eighty one years, who being duly sworn according to Law, doth on his oath make the following declaration in order to obtain the benefit of the act of Congress passed June 7 th 1832
Ques 1/ 2/
That he was born in the town of Fairfield in the State of Connecticut in the year 1751. That the Record of his age is in the family bible, which he has; that when fifteen or sixteen years of age he moved to Kinderhook, County of Columbia & State of New York, resided there till the Revolution; that since that war he has resided at
3/
Guavilla in Green County State of New York some years, & in Coxsackie in said Green County 30 years, now in Hudson That at the commencement of the said War he held a commission as Lieut. in a company of New York Militia, commanded by his brother Capt Trusdail, in the Regiment of Col. Van Alstyne; he does not now recollect by whom said commission was signed -
4/
That in the Spring of 1775 he enlisted as a private to go to Cambridge, Massachusetts, in the
5/
Company of Capt Stebbins, Regiment of Col. Brewer & Brigade of Genl. Greene. He was enlisted by Lieut Chadwick who came from Tyringham, Massachusetts, to enlist a company in New York. He marched directly to said Tyringham, thence to Cambridge aforesaid, where he was posted on "Prospect Hill". While there, he acted as Steward or Quarters Master of said Brewer's Regiment. This enlistment was for one year unless sooner discharged. He was discharged at the expiration of nine months & then returned home, where he arrived in March 1776.
2/ 4/
The same season, he received a warrant for a commission as Lieutenant from the County Committee at Albany, to raise a company to go to the North
5/
This company when raised, was commanded by Capt David Van Ness, in the Regiment of Colonel Van Schaick, under Genl Schuyler. He marched in said company to Saratoga where after three months service as such Lieutenant, he was discharged by Genl Schuyler on account of sickness, but he received no
6/
written discharge. He soon recovered & joined the 6/ 5/ Company of Capt Jacob Vosburg in the Regiment

of Colonel Whiting. He then enlisted as Lieutenant but does not recollect that he had any Commission. He marched to Danversfield in pursuit of the Indians & Tories, who were killing the people, & laying waste the country. There the scattered families came under the protection of the troops, & they guarded them till they arrived in greater security. He was out only two months, when the alarm having subsided, the troops were disbanded. Again in the year 1777 he enlisted as Lieutenant in the company of Capt. Philip Frisbee, Regiment of Col. Whiting aforesaid. He thinks the company was commanded by Col. Warner, acting Captain. He does not recollect whether he had any Commission this time or not; if he had it is lost. He marched to Fort George & on the approach of Burgoyne, he assisted in guarding the sick & provisions, on the retreat to Fort Edward, thence to Half Moon Point, where he was discharged, the term of enlistment having expired. This was a term of three months. The company & he thinks most of the Militia went home. He immediately enlisted for nine months, in the company of Capt. Hubbs, Regiment of Col. Henry Van Ruyvenel. He enlisted as Lieutenant in said Hubbs company marched to Stillwater where they were joined to the Brigade of Genl. Glover, which he thinks was a Brigade of New Hampshire troops. Here he lay till the General Battle of 15th October. In that battle, he was wounded in the side by a bayonet & was next day sent among the wounded to Saratoga Hospital. Soon after, he was brought home & was confined till next spring with the wound. He recollects that the soldiers, who enlisted with him for nine months, had returned home some time before he was able to be out.
Again in 1780. in the month of June or July he received a Commission as Lieut. from Governor Clinton, in the company of Elijah Rootwick, Regiment of Col. Graham, & Brigade of Genl. Malcom. Arnold was then committing depredations all over the country. They went to Fishkill in Hoope, thence to West Point thence to Stony Point, thence to Havre de Grace, thence to Dobb's Ferry, thence to Rockland, he thinks, in the state of New Jersey. Thence they returned to Stony Point, thence by Hoope to Fishkill, thence by Hoope to Albany. There Graham's Regiment

was ordered north to Fort Edward, & said Bostwick company was ordered to take charge of a Block-House 14 miles west of said Fort, at a place called Palmertown. While here, the enemy were killing & destroying at Ballstown & elsewhere in that vicinity. Gordon, a Militia General, he was taken Prisoner by them. Here this deponent was discharged after an absence of eight months. And this applicant for the pension states that he has never received any written discharge except at Cambridge which he has lost. That he has no documentary evidence, & knows of no person who was personally acquainted with any of his said service except Josiah Warner, whose affidavit to said service is now in the War Office. That he knows of none of his neighbours who can conveniently come into court to testify to his veracity & their belief of his said service except those whose certificate is here with suit. That he hereby relinquishes all claim to any pension except the present, & that his name is not on the pension roll of the agency of any State — On putting the said seven questions by the Court, he says they are all answered & embodied in the foregoing declaration.

That when in Capt Hubbys Company (he now collects) he had a Lieutenantys Commission given agreeable to such certificate, by Genl Clinton. That he always drew a Lieutenantys pay & sat in County meetings as Lieutenant. That since sending his first above Declaration, he has discovered the residence of a brother 400 miles distant, whose disposition has been forwarded to the War Depart- ment, which disposition & that of Lieutenant Josiah Warner, he prays may be attached to this Declaration

He recollects dis- tinctly that the family of one Sprague was destroyed at that time - The enemy had retreated before they arrived, & they took all that were left, & guarded them to places of safety.

William Inverdale a pensioner of this city died on the 13 th of February last leaving a balance of pension due. He had lived for years in a helpless condition & his son has supported him. He has left no widow, but seven children, including the son with whom he lived. The other children are scattered in different & some in distant parts. They are all willing or supposed to be, that the son who has taken care of the deceased should have the balance of the pension yet due. This son William Inverdale has taken out letters of administration upon this balance alone, the deceased having nothing else, & given bonds for the faithful discharge of his duties as administrator. He did this supposing it to be the proper course, inasmuch as he is obliged by his oath & bond to make proper distribution among the heirs, when there are no debts; but the pension, declares paying, & shows the instructions of your department. As these instructions do not fully meet this case, he wishes to know whether, he having proved all the facts before a court of Record, the other children may not abish their claim to him, or give him a power of attorney to draw their shares without the necessity of going into court in each case proving the same facts. He could send to them & obtain their affidavits of relationship & power of Atty, or an assignment but the expense & trouble of in some instances 30 miles to a court is worth more than the pension. Perhaps your present instructions would permit the course suggested but the agent at Albany does not so understand them. With great respect Yours O Bt Servt J. H. Fairfield
