I Daniel Pettibon of the Town of Farmington in the County of Hartford and State of Conn t a Revolutionary pensioner aged Seventy eight years and upwards do depose and say that I was well acquainted with Calvin Judd who resided in this Town up to the time of his death (he resided in the Society then called Northampton and Now the Town of Avon)
I have the impression that the said Calvin Judd served in the War of the Revolution in New York & Long Island in the year 1776 under Col n Gray or Col n Willys in Capt. Mils Comp y for a term of 6 or 7 months
I distinctly recollect that the said Judd was drafted with me in Apr l 1777 and served under Capt. Stoddard in Col n Hookers Reg t at Peekskill for a term of two months.
In the fall of the year following I enlisted into Capt. Abel Pettibons Comp y Col n Enos Reg t and join'd the Comp y at New Haven and from thence marched to Fishkill and join'd the Reg t , thence we marched to Peekskill and from thence to Morristown
The whole term of my service at this time was 7 months
My impression is that the said Calvin Judd served with me the whole of that term
I am well acquainted with Mary Judd the widow of the said Calvin Judd and that she has resided in the Town of Avon (formerly a part of this Town) ever since the death of her husband the said Calvin and that she still remains his widow
