Madam:
In response to your letter dated the 12" and received the 15" instant, you are herewith furnished the history of Julian or Julius King, Sur. File No. 38,120, Rev. War, and advised that this Bureau has only a record of claims filed on account of services rendered the Government, and a careful search of the records fails to show that claims were ever filed for Thomas Clifton, James Mayo, John Mayo, William Mayo, or Joseph King of the Virginia troops in the Revolution, therefore there is no information on file concerning them.
The Bounty (land) Warrant to which you refer, was probably issued by the State of Virginia.
Very respectfully,
Commissioner.
