Statement for a gent. at Washington, who shall look after the application of Mrs Priscilla Ware, for a pension —
The enclosed papers relate to the application of Mrs Priscilla Ware, for a pension, as the widow of George Ware, a soldier in the Revolutionary War —
Her husband enjoyed a pension previous to his death and the papers on which he obtained it are on file in the Pension Office — It was deemed sufficient to procure that pension to the widow, to prove that she was the widow of George Ware & that she was his wife du- ring the war — Papers were drawn up, to that object & forwarded to the Commissioner of Pensions at Washington sometime in the past summer, with the application of Mrs Ware for a pension — The Commissioner in answer there- to returned the enclosed letter of Oct 3 d ult, & marked "No, 1." — In obedience to his directions therein I forwarded to the Secretary of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, the en- closed application marked "No. 2," & obtained the return thereto annexed — This would seem to present slight ground for asking a pension — But it seems to me, this latter document is wholly unnecessary — George Ware received a pension — his papers are on file — These papers prove his services & procure him a pension — His widow makes application for a pension — proves her marriage with Ware, in the time of the war & that she is now his widow & refers for proof of her husband's service to the papers on file, that secured him his pension — The com- missioner has these papers of George Ware in his possession & has once granted a pension on them — They have been received as evidence in his application, & ought certainly to be in hers — But the Commissioner requires new pa- pers, in proof of his service, as will be seen by a reference to "No. 1," He probably overlooked Mrs Ware's reference

to their papers, for proof of her husband's service - You will call his attention to that -
Again - the Commissioner in "No 1" says the date of the marriage, should be established by "public or private record or documentary evidence". I suppose evidence of "public record" is asked, as being the best evidence, or the only evidence that should be received, if it existed - The afft or certf. of Houghton (I think his name is) Town Clerk of Putney, where her marriage took place (accompanying Mrs W's application) shows that no public records of marriage were kept until 1780, & she was married in 1778. I know not what kind of "private documentary evidence" could be anticipated, unless it were, a certificate of marriage or family record - neither of which exist - The afft of Mrs Aiken on file, who was present at the marriage proves the marriage & I believe it fixes the date of the marriage - Ezekiel Pierce's afft, also relates to the marriage & I believe the date of it - As I have not retained copies of the papers, I am unable to state particularly - If the afft of Mrs W, to the date of the marriage, would be received, as adding strength to the evidence already furnished, or as fixing the time with greater certainty, it can be furnished -
I would advise that you proceed, upon the assumption, that the papers used in George Ware's application are sufficient evidence of his service - If that course will not satisfy the Commissioner, then you will see by his papers, what his service was, & if different, from what is stated in "No 2" advise me & I will make a new & give me the particulars of his service & I will have a new search made by the Secy of War, & forward you - if not different, then you will use, the enclosed certificate, of said Secretary. By Mrs Ware's Application to the Secretary of War,

you will see, that her husband's services were principally naval & the Secretary returns that there are "no rolls of the vessels named in his office" - She is old & her recollection may be somewhat impaired, as to the vessels on which he served, & in fact, her application to the Secy, was principally made from, the Compt. letter "No. 1"
For attending to the above matter, the friends of Mrs. Ware, are willing to compensate for all the trouble - They are by no means wealthy nor numerous, but direct me to ask some one familiar with such duties at Washington, to take it in hand & write me the probable amount that will satisfy & it shall be forwarded.

In the ch ce of Proselea Ware an applicant for a Pension
Rochester May 26. /45
Before / Some time since I sent the papers in this case to the Pension Office for a pension for a poor Widow Woman. & have had much difficulty in complying with the requirements of the Office. The Husband of the Applicant was up on the pension Roll at the time of his death & I supposed there would be no difficulty in establishing the term of service as I supposed that the proof on file in connection with his application would be regarded sufficient & that the department would only require the Applicant in this case to make out her marriage - in that view proof was forwarded with the original papers, which the Department thought not sufficient - but if I mistake not there was direct proof on the subject - in addition to this objection, it was objected or suggested that proof of the service could be obtained by the Sec'y of War & a ch ce application was made but the Sec'y could not find it the Certificate of which was forwarded to the Pension Office & I rec d further directions from that Office saying it could be procured accordingly the letter from that Office was forwarded to the Sec'y. & I have rec d . the enclosed Certificate emanating to the same as the former. I have also procured further affidavits on the subject of the marriage which I forward you. I can't perceive why with those already forwarded

They are not sufficient. Last winter Mr Chas Billingshouse my Clerk wrote Mr Pullen - in a letter in which the difficulties of the Office were set forth which I understand Mr. Pullen sent to the office. If the business of Pensylvania is not in your line of business will you do me the favor to peruse the the subject of this application in the hands of some person whose business it is to attend to it, that the matter may be disposed of or to ascertain what difficulties there are that can or cannot be removed, I hope it may be that you can attend to it. I will say, that I am transacting the business more as a duty of Charity than any expecta- tion of reward. I can't promise you or whomsoever you may employ a compensation unless we are successful Please write me if the slight prospect thus held out for compensation is sufficient for you to investigate the matter please write the result. I am truly Yours Horner Goy

July 12, 1892. To Head of Pension Department, Dear Sir.
I would like to join the "Daughters of the Revolution" in Springfield, Mass. and am told that I cannot, unless some of my ancestors were in the "Rev. War." My Father says that my great-grand-father, Ira was in the Rev. War, that his first name was George & he does n't know his middle name, but thinks it was Washington." I presume that he was a private, would like to know. He received a pension & his wife received a pension after his death. His burial place is in at Queebeckston, Vt., and he has no grave-stone. I am told

that the "Government" will provide one for him. Is that true? If that be true - what would it be necessary for me to do to procure one. If you are not the ones to give the information on the points mentioned - will you tell me whom to address?
Yours very respectfully, E. L. Ware.

Your favor of the 2 d Inst. is recd. - In regard to the same allow me to suggest that some of the papers in regard to the application of Priscilla Ware must have been mistaid or overlooked: - You say "no additional evidence has been rec d in the case of Priscilla Ware since the date of my letter to the Hon T. J. Pallisons of the 6 th Feby 1845." h.
I beg leave to refer you to the evidence sent to the Pension office with the letter of Saml. D. King of the 18 th of March 1846.
I am told that evidence proves the Marriage - Shows there is no Church record - that the rolls of Capt. Andrus' Company are not on file and that they explain or supply all that is required by your letter to Mr. Patterson -
Yours Respectfully A. B. Walcutt
