Commissioner of Pensions Washington, D.C.
Dear Sir:
Adjutant General P.S. Harris in reply to my inquiry suggests likelihood of your Dept being better qualified to advise me on following information sought concerning:
General Anthony Wayne, late U.S.A. who died Dec 15, 1796, Erie, Pa. & who had a son Colonel Isaac Wayne, late U.S.A.
I will be much obliged to learn names of Genl Wayne's Brothers - if any or Sisters, if any - names of his sons and daughters (besides Col. Isaac Wayne) and names of any of his other direct descendants if this is at all possible to get. This unusual request is prompted by the writer's effort to trace same on behalf of my wife. Some patriotic interest in being informed just what her family's lineage is in the Wayne line since for past four generations same has been the accepted claim.
Very truly Yours, - Geo L Bennett.

Rev. War Section.

In response to your letter of the 19 th ultimo, you are advised that there is no data on file in this Bureau relative to the family of General Anthony Wayne, either in the lineal or collateral branches.
Very respectfully,
Washington Gardner
Commissioner.
