In 1819, he was living in Franklin County, Kentucky. In 1820, he was living in Woodford County, Kentucky, and stated that he had no wife or family residing with him except a daughter, a widow, and her three children; their names were not stated and there are no further family data on file.

I Robert Trimble District Judge of the United States for the District aforesaid do certify that Captain Robert Ganney of Franklin County came before me on this day, and being by me duly sworn, did depose and say, that in May 1818, he made a declaration on oath before Robert Trimble Esq. District Judge of his services as a Captain in the Revolutionary war, & of his reduced circumstances in life, for the purpose of obtaining a pension from the Government of the United States; - That his declaration & application for a pension, was duly forwarded to the Hon. Secretary of War; - and that he has been informed his petition was granted & a pension allowed him, especially by Joseph C. Livingston, who made enquiry on the subject in the War office on the 8th of Oct r last: and the said Robert Ganney, further declared on oath, that he has never received any Certificate of pension from the Secretary of War; and that altho he has made diligent enquiry for it in the post office at Frankfort in the County in which he resides, it cannot

he found; & he does verily believe, the said certificate, has been lost. He further states that he neither drawn his pension, nor made any power of attorney to any other person to draw it for him.
He prays that a duplicate certificate may be allowed & forwarded to him.
Robt Yancey Sworn to before me this 9 th . day of November 1819. Robt. Trimble
I do certify that the certificate of pension of Capt Robert Yancey has never come to my hands; that altho I have made diligent inquiry for it in the nearest post offices, I have not been able to find it ; and that from the circumstance of having forwarded to the Hendabee Secretary of War his petition for a pension, & not having (as usual) received any communication on the subject from the department of War, together with the repeated enquiries by Capt Yancey & his friends, I am induced to believe the certificate must have been lost or mislaid Nov. 9 th . 1819. Robt Trimble.

Frankfort. Nov. 9 th 1819.
Dr Sir
The unfortunate officer, Capt. Yancey has never recd. his certificate of pension, & is in great need of it. The foregoing are transmitted with a view of obtaining a duplicate. I must beg your early attention to his case; & request that an answer may be forwarded to me, directed to Paris Idy.

Sir:
In reply to your letter of the 20 th instant, you are advised that this Bureau is unable to furnish the history of a soldier of the Revolution unless a claim for pension or bounty land has been made on account of his services and in order to identify such a claim, in addition to the full name of the soldier it is essential that some of the following data be furnished. Approximate dates of birth and death, name of some officer under whom he served, places of residence at enlistment and after discharge and given name of widow. Owing to the lack of a clerical force available for the purpose, only four such histories are sent to any person.
The revolutionary War records of this Bureau fail to afford any information in regard to Charles and John Yancey described by you.
You are herewith furnished the records of Leighton and Robert Yancey, as requested.
