Mr. S.O.Solliday Worthington Indiana
Dear Sir:
Reference is made to your letter relative to Daniel Solliday, a soldier of the Revolutionary War.
The data furnished herein are obtained from the papers on file in the Revolutionary War claim for pension, W.3310, based upon the military service of Daniel Solliday in that war.
Daniel Solliday(the name also appears as Solliday, Salleday and Salladay) enlisted at Carlisle, Pennsylvania, in the spring of 1777, as private in Captain McClelland's Company of the Ninth Pennsylvania Regiment, was at the battles of Brandywine, Germantown and Monmouth and in several skirmishes, and was discharged September 29, 1783, by Colonel Richard Butler from the Third Pennsylvania Regiment having served six years, three months and twenty-four days.
He was allowed pension on his application executed May 23, 1818, at which time he was aged sixty years and resided in Armagh Township, Mifflin County, Pennsylvania.
He died April 20, 1820, in Centre County, Pennsylvania.
The soldier married October 16, 1782, at Carlisle, Pennsylvania, Mary Waste,
Soldier's widow, Mary, was granted an annuity by an Act of the Pennsylvania State Assembly, dated April 11, 1825.
She died July 1, 1846, in Clarion County, Pennsylvania, aged eighty years.
The following children survived their mother: Elizabeth Stringfellow and Sarah Rager, of Mifflin County, Pennsylvania; Mary Baisp or Dunlap, of Huntingdon County, Pennsylvania; Catharine Fraister,
Margaret Jackson, George and John Salliday, of Clarion County, Pennsylvania, and Daniel Salladay, of Mercer County, Pennsylvania.
In 1853, the pension due Mary Solliday, on account of the services of her husband, Daniel Solliday, was paid to Mary Dunlap, Catharine Fraister, Margaret Jackson, George, John and Daniel Solliday, surviving children.
In order to identify the record of any other particular soldier with surname Solliday, the full name is essential and as much as possible of the following data pertaining to him: approximate dates of birth and death, places of residence at enlistment and after service and given name of widow.
Very truly yours

Regiment; after having served six years, three months and twenty-four days.
He was allowed pension on his application executed May 23, 1818, at which time he was sixty years old and a resident of Armagh Township, Mifflin County, Penn. He died April 20, 1820.
