That she is the widow of Isaiah Streater, who, in the time of the War of the Revolution, was a resident of Cumberland, in the state of Rhode Island, and who, as she believes, took an active part in the Revolutionary services, as a Private, in that state, but for what length of time, or under what Officers, she is unable to state; that she has frequently heard her said husband speak of his services in the Army of the United States, and that she has but little doubt but that he served from one to two years, and perhaps more; that she cannot certainly say in what year or years he served, but she thinks that his services were performed in the early part of the war; and that she has no documentary evidence of his services, and knows of no individual who served with him.
She also declares that she was married to the said Isaiah Streater, at Smithfield in the state of Rhode-

Island, on or about the sixth day of May, in the year seventeen hundred and eighty four; that her husband, the aforesaid Isaiah Streeter, died on the sixth day of January, in the year eighteen hundred and two, that she was not married to him prior to his leaving the service, but the marriage took place previous to the first day of January seventeen hundred and ninety four, viz, at the time above stated.
She further declares that after the death of the husband aforesaid, she was married to Joseph Remington in the month of March, eighteen hundred and five, and that he died on the sixth day of April, eighteen hundred thirty five, and that she is still a widow.
