Dear Madam:
Reference is made to your letter in which you request the Revolutionary War records of Patrick McDaniel, aged ninety-four years in 1835 and died in Adams County, Ohio; also, Allan, Daniel and Isaac McDaniel who served as privates in Captain John Hanson's company from Charles County, Maryland.
The Revolutionary War records of this office have been searched and no claims for pension or bounty land found based upon service in that war of a Daniel McDaniel as described by you, or of any Allan or Isaac McDaniel. Such claims are the source of Revolutionary War data furnished by this office, and all spellings were searched.
The record was found of only one Patrick McDaniel and he settled in the State of Ohio. His record is furnished herein, as found in the papers on file in pension claim, S. 41861, based upon his service in the Revolutionary War.
The date and place of soldier's birth and names of his parents are not given.
Patrick McDaniel enlisted in June, 1775, in the State of Pennsylvania, served as private in Captain Robert Cluggage's company, Colonels Thompson's and Hand's Pennsylvania rifle regiment, was engaged in most of the battles on Long Island, in the battles of Trenton and Princeton, and while returning to camp after a furlough, he was captured by a party of Indians at Frechtown where four of his companions were killed and he was taken prisoner into Canada and held until after peace was declared, returning to New York in the winter of 1783 or 1784.
He was allowed pension on his application executed May 1, 1818, at which time he gave his age as seventy-six years and was residing

in Coleraine Township, Hamilton County, Ohio. In 1820, the soldier was still residing in Hamilton County, Ohio, and stated that he was eighty years old, with no explanation of the discrepancy in age.
There are no family data in the claim.
In order to obtain date of last payment of pension, the name and address of the person paid, and possibly the date of death of Patrick McDaniel, you should write to the Comptroller General, General Accounting Office, Records Division, this city, and cite the following data:

Sir,
I have taken the liberty of enclosing the claim of P. M. Davidson who is suffering under the Township. At the last session of the Ohio Legislature the County of Hamilton was raised up into a Council and removed the mantle -
Many of our friends in every appointment should be required I presume it will shortly be furnished by some other official who is better able to bear the of press than the present one.

Dear Sir:
Permit me to thank you for the information you sent me concerning the Gates family and William Gates of the Revolution, from Adams County, Ohio. It was exactly what I needed to complete my lineage. I deeply appreciate your kindness in searching the records and sending me the results.
In the " History of Adams County Ohio ," by Evans, in the list of Revolutionary Soldiers who died in Adams County is the name of Patrick McDaniel, aged 94 in 1835 . I believe that he is the father of Sarah McDaniel who married the above mentioned William Gates . In the Maryland Genealogical Bulletin , vol. 3, no. 4, page 25, are listed Allan McDaniel, (12th Battalion, 1777)
  Daniel  "  "  "  "    Isaac  "  "  "  "    privates in Capt. John Hanson's Company all from Charles County, Maryland. Our McDaniel line is also from Charles County, Md. and I believe these names to indicate members of the same family.
At your convenience, I would appreciate your sending me any facts concerning these names, especially Patrick McDaniel. I do not wish to impose upon your time, but I believe that your records will have the information that I need. I am writing a genealogical history of the families mentioned and would like to include all that is possible.
Again thanking you for your generous assistance, I remain,
Very truly yours,
Corinne Miller Simons
