In response to your letter dated the seventh instant, you are advised that in the claim of William Subbuth or Sudduth, Ser. File No. 40,538, Rev.

Dear Sir: Can your dept furnish information as to whether either of the Revo- lutionary soldiers mentioned on in- closed slip drew a pension.
There is a tradition in the family that our ancestor one of these William Sudduth or Suddeth's" was shot in the lung and for years wore a fine silk handkerchief in the wound which had to be changed each day

He is supposed to have lived near the Washington estate and was at times a companion of Washington's. It may be possible that this wound was received in an engagement at Ft. Necessity in the French and Indian war as there is an account of his having served at that place.
This William Suddeth's or Sudduth's children were Peter Frank, Peter, William, Polly, Lucy, Betty, Susie, Nancy, and Louisa. Frank had five children William, Jennie, George, Priscilla, Mary. Jennie is my children's grandmother.
I am at a loss to know how to go about it to establish this claim to a descent from this man or how the expense of these investigations are met. Please advise me if there are charges or if not, kindly give me any information you can do to this man's ancestry, place of residence or posterity.
He moved to Ohio, Pickaway Co, and owned land or property there, after he had served in the war.
Or can you cite me any volume or work which gives information along these lines. Thanking you for your efforts I am yours respectfully Matie Smith

Do you have available a record of John Sudduth (born or lived in Fau- quier Co., Va.), came to Ky about 1785- Bourbon, later Clark Co. Would like dates of birth & death or any data. His wife Ann lived 1740-1824 or 25, in Ky. He died about 1788 or 89.
Or do you have record of Francis Sudduth in Lincoln Co. Ky drawing pension?
There is also a James who may have remained in Fauquier or came with possibly his bro. John to Ky. Do you have record of a pension date of birth & death & where he drew pension only one
There is also a William. I should appreciate data on these.

Dear Sir:-
Wm L. The data requested in regard to a soldier named William Sudduth is as follows: He was born 5 November, 1765, probably in Virginia and died in Clark County, Kentucky, 27 August, 1845; he is believed to have resided in the State of Virginia at the time of his enlistment, but the particular county I am unable to state.
Will you also furnish us with a copy of any records you may have relating to one Peter Scholl, who was a Revolutionary soldier. He was born about 1754, in the Shenandoah Valley in Virginia, and died in Clark County, Kentucky 11 September, 1821. In 1782 he married Mary Boone, daughter of Edward Boone, a brother of Daniel Boone. He is said to have memorialised Congress for a pension, but got none because he was in good circumstances.
Thanking you in advance for this information, we are,
Respectfully,
George F. Doyle
Secretary.

Sir:
I am seeking information concerning my great-grandfather, John Greider, Sr., who was a soldier in the Revolutionary War from Virginia; who later removed to Adair County, Kentucky, and received a pension for his military service. I would appreciate any information the records of your office may show relative to his birthplace, where he came from in Virginia, his age when he enlisted, date of enlistment, and the names and addresses of any relatives mentioned in his papers.
I would also appreciate any information you may be able to give concerning another great-grandfather, William Suddeth, also from Virginia originally and later from Kentucky. He was a private and corporal in the 11th Virginia regiment in the Revolutionary, but I am not certain whether or not he received a pension.
Very respectfully,
W. E. Suddarth, o/o Isthmian Canal Commission, Washington, D. C.
