Declaration In order to obtain the benefit of the third section of the act of Congress of the 11th July 1836
State of New Hampshire } ss Sullivan
On this 15th day of February 1837 personally appeared in open court before the Judge of the Court of Probate now sitting Hannah Kimball a resident of Manchester in the county of Sullivan and state of New Hampshire aged 78 years who being first duly sworn, ac- cording to law, doth on her oath make the following declaration in order to obtain the benefit of the provision made by the Act of Congress passed July 11th 1836. That she is the widow of Daniel Kimball late of Man- chester N.H. deceased, who according to her best knowledge and belief under- ed service to the country in the time of the Revolution from the winter of 1776 till the autumn of 1780 being then a resident of said Manchester but was not continually engaged during said period, and it is difficult and indeed next to impossible for her to state the precise amount of all his services, but believes he was engaged in all as mu- ch as 21 months. Nor can she name all the officers under whom he served before commissioned himself. She has no documentary evidence other than a private journal kept by said Kimball prior to her marriage with him, during which she supposes to have been his first service, from which it appears that he engaged by enlistment as a private on the 8th day of February 1776 and went to Dubee and returned to N.H. on the 27th day of May 1776. It also appears by said journal that he commenced doing the duty of a sergeant on the 26th day of April 1776. Of his other services before her marriage she can give no definite account. Believes he went to Peconquaga in 1777.
3 mo 25 d 1837 Hannah Kimball
After her connexion with said Daniel Kim- ball by marriage he was detached to go to West Point in the summer of 1780 being at the time an ensign, and accordingly went, and was gone 11 months or thereabouts, the next day after his return from West Point he went to Royalton at the time the Indians came there and burnt the town in October 1780, this being the last service that she has any recollection of his having performed — She further

declares that she was married to the said Daniel Kimball on the 4th day of December 1777 - that her husband the aforesaid Daniel Kimball died on the 27th day of February 1817; and that she has remained a widow ever since that period, as will more fully appear by reference to the proof hereto annexed or that may accompany this declaration - Hannah Kimball Sworn to and subscribed on the day and year above written before John I.
