Mrs. Anna B. Stocking Conderaport Pennsylvania
Madam:
I advise you from the papers in the Revolutionary War pension claim, S.36794, it appears that Israel Stocking enlisted, June 15, 1778, place not stated, and served as a private in Captains Campbell's and Satterlee's Companies in the Congress' Own Regiment which was commanded by Colonel Moses Hazen; he was in the battles of Westchester and Jamestown, at the capture of Cornwallis and was discharged, June 17, 1783.
He was allowed pension on his application executed April 18, 1818, at which time he was a resident of Hartford County, Connecticut.
There are no data relative to his family.
The above noted is the only soldier by the name of Israel Stocking that is found on the Revolutionary War records of this bureau and said records fail to afford any information in regard to John, Timothy and Daniel Stocking.
Respectfully,
E. M. MORGAN Acting Commissioner.
