In order to obtain the benefit of the act of Congress passed June 7 th 1832.
State of Tennessee } Know all men by these presents: Robertson County } of Pleas and In fact officers in and for same county.
On this 15 th day of November eighteen hundred and thirty two personally appeared in open court before the honorable county court in & for said county of Robertson & State of Tennessee name in person, Charles Whitworth a resident of the county of Robertson & State of Tennessee, age twenty two or three years, of which I have no record, but just had and the same was burnt up in a house which I had burnt down in which me and my family resided, and I was born in Campbell county in the State of Virginia in the year 1759 or 1760. As being first duly sworn according to law, do to in his oath make the following declaration in order to obtain the benefit of the act of Congress passed June 7 th 1832.
That he entered the service of the United States under the following named officers and served in the service of the United States army as hereinafter stated. The first Ten & took & relinquished for the three months, but under what Captain I do not now recollect. Commanded by Major Ramsey & Col. William Hove and Genl. Rutherford, I at that time lived in Campbell County State of North Carolina which was a month or so before Genl. Wallace took Charleston, which I believe was in 1780. I was near to the Catawba River near the head of it was in no engagement served out my term and get a discharge. —

which has been burnt also in my house, The Second Term I served I was drafted for the Term of Three months in the North Carolina Reserves, I was still a citizen of Laurens County in the State of North Carolina, which was soon after Gen Wallace Took Charles Town, but what Year from infirmity and old age I am unable to say, I was drafted but under Lieut. Capland I do not recollect, but I was under the command of Maj: Sharp Col. Farmer, & Genl. Davidson, I was again Marched to the Catawba River and there we met with Gen Wallace, at Lowrys Ford along the Catawba, had an engagement with him in which he was defeated Genl. Davidson was Killed in the commencement of the Battle, he was ordered to retreat, which was done about five Miles from the Battle ground and there we had another small engagement with Parton and his light infantry which was near the Road down Ferrings, where we was again defeated. Nothing very particular transpired in said last engagement, we here then marched to the Adkin River in the State of North Carolina, but through what counties we was marched at any time I am unable to say, at the Adkin we had another engagement with Col. Parton and his light infantry, and we was again defeated - without anything remarkable occurring, we here from then marched to Hillsborough in said State but through what counties I am unable to say & before we received a discharge having served out the Three months.
The next Term I served I volunteered myself for no particular time, I was still a Resident

of Cornwall County State of North Carolina and in which Service I served Three months that is to say as I am from Old age and infirmity of mind and Body unable to say with any certainty of my know- ledge, but all the Services (except the first which was just before the taking of Charles- town by Col. Tarleton,) were served one after the other immediately and probably the whole was in the same year that Char- leston was taken by Genl. Wallace but I don't want speak positively as to that, I was in my last Service under the command of Capt. Robert Parks, Lieuten- ant James Gentry Col. Murphy; and Genl. McGaire, I was in one battle during of that Battle Service, at the Wadsworth of Swan River near White's Mills. Nothing particular trans- pired during the Battle but there was a through several parts of the State in pursuit of the Service, but through what parts of the State or through what counties I am unable to say. The different months in which I volunteered my- self and was drafted into the Service I cannot pre- cisely say. I received discharges for my several Services, but have unfortunately lost all them by fire, at the time as I have before stated when my house was burnt down. I resided in Cornwall County something like ten or twelve years after I left the Service, I then moved to the State of Tennessee Relatively where I have resided ever since, and where I still reside, which I suppose to be something like forty years. I was born as before stated in Guilford for County State of Virginia. In the year I suppose of 1759, or 1760. From the recollection of my age, I have

no record of my age at this time, but had it at one time, from the record of my father's account of my age, but it was burnt up in my house, I have no recollection of any of the Continental or Militia, Regiments with whom I served in any of my services, and the general circumstances of my service as well as old age and infirmity will admit of. I have given, I have no positive testimony that I know of, to prove my services by in the manner and form printed out in this application I have a Brother M c Intosh M c Intosh, whose certificate is hereto annexed shows of my being in the service of the United States in the Revolution, but he does not know under whom I served, nor how long I was in the service, I am well acquaint- ed with John Stubbs Esq r , Joseph Johnson, Esq r , Crockett, Matthew Powell Esq r , and many others which might be named if deemed necessary in my neighborhood. He hereby acknowledges every claim to a pension to a pension or annuity except the present and declares that his name is not on the pension roll of the agency of any State. I am acquainted with Genl. Morgan and Genl. Green of the late United States army -

Sir,  I have examined and filed the application of Bandes  the  the  widow of  in the interest of Charles, for the benefit of the Act of July 7, 1838, and you are informed that her identity is admitted; but that there is no, shall evidence to show that she was married to the late pensioner prior to  as early as 1794. If there is no Family Record, or no evidence of the date of the in the office of the clerk of the county when the marriage rites were performed, (and of this we must be satisfied,) the age of her eldest living child, if established by the testimony of separate neighbors, whose testimony must be based upon some epocated event, which is, itself, a matter of Record, might enable us to determine whether her claim is embraced by the Act of July 7, 1838.

BRIEF objections to the admission of Pension Claims , of which those answered in the negative, in red ink, will apply to the claim of Charles McIntosh which require further proof or explanation.
I. Does the declaration show where the applicant resides? II. Did the declarant make the declaration in the county where he resides? III. If the applicant did not make the declaration in the county where he resides, is there any reason assigned for his not doing so? IV. Has the declarant mentioned the period or periods of the war when he served? V. * Has he mentioned with precision the length of his service, and the different grades in which he served, in language so definite as to enable the department to determine to what amount of pension he is entitled? VI. Has he given the names of the officers under whom he served, in conformity with the regulations? VII. Has he made a relinquishment of every claim to any other pension than the one under the Act of June 7, 1832? VIII. Has the Court given their opinion? IX. Has the Clerk given his certificate? X. Is the Clerk's seal affixed? And if so, has it a device or inscription by which it can be distinguished from any other seal?

XI. Has the applicant obtained the evidence of a clergyman and another respectable citizen as to their belief respecting his age and the general belief in his neighborhood relative to his revolutionary service?
XII. If the clergyman's affidavit has not been produced, is there any reason assigned for not obtaining it?
XIII. If the applicant has no documentary evidence, and has not obtained the testimony of at least one living witness, has he stated in his declaration that such proof cannot be had?
XIV. † If the applicant's name is not found on the rolls of military service, has he produced a witness or witnesses as to his service?
If he has produced direct proof as to service, has the magistrate who administered the oath, certified to the credibility of the witness or witnesses?
Has the proper officer certified to the official character and signature of the magistrate as the regulations direct?
XV. Does it appear from any of the papers that the witness was in such a situation, or of such an age, as to have a personal knowledge of the applicant's service?
XVI. ‡ Are the papers authenticated as the regulations direct? No
XVII. Are the seven interrogatories prescribed by the War Department answered satisfactorily? And, if not, which of them is not so answered?
EXPLANATORY NOTES.
* QUERE V. In a case where the applicant cannot, by reason of the loss of memory, state precisely how long he served, he should amend his declaration by making an affidavit in the following words: "Personally appeared before me, the undersigned, a Justice of the Peace, &c. A. B. who, being duly sworn, deposeth and saith, that, by reason of old age, and the consequent loss of memory, he cannot swear positively as to the precise length of his service, but according to the best of his recollection he served not less than the periods mentioned below, and in the following grades; For _____ year _____ months, and _____ days, I served as a _____ For _____ months and _____ days, I served as a _____; and for such service I claim a pension."

It is important in all cases to determine with precision the period for which each applicant served, and the particular rank he held, as the law directs the pension to be paid according to the grade of the pensioner and the length of his service. The use of the phrase about three or four months is too indefinite, and all such qualifying expressions are objectionable. Some persons who apply for pensions merely state they served two years in the militia, &c. without specifying the tours; the names of the officers, and other particulars respecting their service. This form of a declaration is highly objectionable. It must in every case be clearly shown under what officers the applicant served; the duration of each term of engagement; the particular place or places where the service was performed; that the applicant served with an embodied corps called into service by competent authority; that he was either in the field or in garrison; and for the time during which the service was performed, he was not employed in any civil pursuit.
† QUERE XIV.  Proof of Service.
In a case where the name of the applicant is not found on the records of the Department, he must prove his service by two credible witnesses, who are required to set forth in their affidavits the time of the claimants entering the service, and the time and manner of his leaving the same, as well as the regiment, company, and line to which he belonged. The magistrate who may administer the oaths must certify to the credibility of the witnesses, and the official character and signature of the magistrate must be certified by the proper officer, under his seal of office.
‡ QUERE XVI.  Mode of authenticating papers.
In every instance where the certificate of the certifying officer who authenticates the papers is not written on the same sheet of paper which contains the affidavit, or other paper authenticated, the certificate must be attached thereto by a piece of tape or narrow ribbon, the ends of which must pass under the seal of office of the certifying officer, so as to prevent any paper from being improperly attached to the certificate.
¶ In every case where the clerk of the court, or other certifying officer, has no public seal of office, the certificate of a member of congress, proving the official character and signature of the certifying officer, should accompany the papers.

Dear Madam:
Reference is made to your letter in which you request the Revolutionary War records of John Scott, who served as captain in that war, married Elizabeth Bibb, in Amelia or Prince Edward County, Virginia, and later moved to Franklin County, Tennessee; Lodowick or Loderick Farmer, of Lunenburg County, Virginia; Charles McIntosh, of North Carolina, whose wife, Candice, drew a pension in Robertson County, Tennessee, Thomas Gunn, of Amelia County, Virginia, who had a son Sterling, and about 1885 moved to Caswell County, North Carolina.
Revolutionary War data furnished by this office are obtained from claims for pension and bounty land made to the United States based upon military service of soldiers in that war.
A careful search of the records fails to show such claims on file on account of the Revolutionary War service of a Thomas Gunn or of his son, Sterling. From the information given by you no record can be identified as that of the Lodowick or Loderick Farmer in whom you are interested.
You are furnished herewith the records of John Scott and Charles McIntosh.
Very truly yours
A. D. HILLER Executive Assistant to the Administrator
