Middlesex county ss. Personally appeared before me the the undersigned a Justice of the Peace in and for the county of Middlesex & State of New Jersey Jeremiah Pen Dyck the foregoing applicant who being duly sworn, deposes & saith that by reason of old age and consequent loss of memory he cannot swear positively as to the precise length of his service, but according to the best of his recollection he served not less than the period mentioned below and in the following grades - viz. As a private sol- dier in the militia of New Jersey from the month of July 1776 to the month of June 1777 every other month. From the month of June 1777 to the month of July 1778 a few days after the battle of Monmouth as Lieutenant every other month. That he served as captain in said Militia being elected and commissioned for that purpose from the month of July 1778 to the close of the war in 1783, in which later capacity & under his said commission he also served for the period last mentioned every other month & sometimes two months in succession. He served as captain in actual service in the militia of New Jersey from during the re- volutionary war two whole years and more, in addition to his other service above mentioned, and for this service he claims a pension and he further makes his said oath saith that the several commissions in

on which his services have been lost and cannot now be found, & that upon inquiry at the Secretary of State's office it appears that no record of appointments made or commissions issued by the State of New Jersey or the Governor thereof to officers of the Militia of said State during the revolutionary war can be found & nor can any such record be found in the Adjutant General's office of said State as appears by the annexed certificates - And upon his oath aforesaid he further states that upon further reflection since he made his foregoing declaration he recollects that he was appointed Lieutenant of Militia, when the British left New Brunswick which was in June 1777 where served as Lieutenant till the battle of Monmouth which was in June 1778 when he was chosen and commissioned Captain & served as above stated till the end of the war

Dear Madam:
Reference is made to your letter in which you request the Revolutionary War record of Jeremiah Ten Eyck (1755-6-1841), of Middlesex County, New Jersey; the War of 1812 record of his son, Jeremiah who, you state, died in 1831, and the War of 1812 record of Nicholas Wyckoff, of New Brunswick, New Jersey.
Because of the great demand for data in regard to soldiers of the Revolutionary War and War of 1812, and the limited trained clerical force available for furnishing such information, it is impossible for this office to comply in full with each request which requires so much time and research. Records have been found for a Jeremiah Teneick who served in the Revolutionary War, and for one of that name who served in the War of 1812, both of New Jersey, which are furnished you herein as they may prove of interest to you in your research.
JEREMIAH TENEICK S. 4680
The data herein were obtained from pension claim, S. 4680, based upon service in the Revolutionary War of Jeremiah Teneick.
Jeremiah Teneick was born February 6, 1755, in the Township of Piscataway, Middlesex County, New Jersey. The names of his parents are not shown.
While a resident of Middlesex County, New Jersey, he volunteered in July or September, 1776, served at different times on short tours about every other month as private in Captain Samuel Baker's company, Colonel Deare's New Jersey regiment and was in the battle of Princeton; he was appointed Lieutenant in June, 1777, and served as such under Captains Sebring, Samuel Randolph, Manning and Skinner in the New Jersey troops and was in the battle of Monmouth; in July, 1778, he was commissioned Captain in Colonel John Webster's New Jersey regiment, continued to serve about

every other month as captain under Colonels Webster and Crow in the New Jersey troops, until the close of the war in 1783, during which period he was in the battle of Springfield, also in frequent skirmishes along the eastern shore of New Jersey one of which was near the City of New Brunswick. He stated that his service in all amounted to between three and four years.
He was allowed pension on his application executed September 14, 1832, at which time he was a resident of Middlesex County, New Jersey, and signed Jeremiah Teneick . He died May 6, 1841.
No reference was made in the claim to wife or children.
In order to obtain date of last payment of pension and name and address of person paid, you should write to the Comptroller General, General Accounting Office, Records Division, this city, and cite the following data: Jeremiah Teneick, certificate #9151, issued August 19, 1833, rate $480 per annum, commenced March 4, 1831, Act June 7, 1832, New Jersey Agency.

JEREMIAH TEN EYCK B.L. Wt. 78272-120-55
The record follows of Jeremiah Ten Eyck as found in the papers on file in the claim for bounty land based upon his service in the War of 1812. No application for pension was found based upon that service.
The date and place of birth and names of the parents of this soldier were not given.
Jeremiah Ten Eyck volunteered at Liontown near Fort Niagara, New York, a few days before the battle of Queenston Heights and stated that he served three months as private in Captain Hoppock's New York company and was in the battle of Queenston Heights. He volunteered at New Brunswick, New Jersey, and served from September 5, 1814, to December 22, 1814, as a private in Captain Neilson's company of New Jersey militia.
Jeremiah Ten Eyck (as this soldier signed) applied October 12, 1850, for bounty land which was due on account of his service in the War of 1812, at which time he was aged sixty-three years and a resident of Hunterdon County, New Jersey. On this application he was allowed forty acres of bounty land on Warrant No. 95493, under the Act of September 28, 1850. He applied April 26, 1855, for additional land which was due on

account of his service. At that time he was living in Hillsborough, Somerset County, New Jersey. On this application he was granted one hundred twenty acres of bounty land on Warrant No. 78278, under the Act of March 3, 1855.
There is no reference in the claim to wife or children of Jeremiah Ten Eyck.
If you desire information in regard to location of the land granted to this soldier, you should apply to the Commissioner of the General Land Office, Interior Department, this city, and cite the number of each warrant, the acreage and date of the act under which issued.
Very truly yours

Application of Capt Jeremiah Don Eych of the County of Middlesex New Jersey for an addition to his Pension.
State of New Jersey 2.
Middlesex County ss. On this tenth day of August one thousand eight hundred thirty three. Before me the subscriber one of the Justices of the Peace in & for the County of Middlesex, personally appeared Jeremiah Don Eych, who being duly sworn on his oath saith that he is in the 75th year of his age, a soldier of the Revolution, and now in the receipt of a Pension as such - that his certificate for a Pension is dated on the second day of April, 1833, and is numbered 9157, and allows a pension of three hundred fifty six dollars and sixty five cents per annum - that this allowance is far short of the amount due to the services he actually performed, as he thinks he will be able conclusively to show - that in the original draft of his paper, and in the amendment thereto, his services are not stated as much in detail as he might have given them had he had known exactly what the instructions from the War Department were, nor as he is enabled to give them now from having his memory greatly refreshed by the testimony of those who served under him. He therefore proceeds to give a more detailed and specific account of his services, and hopes to receive, what he knows these services entitle him to, a full pension as Captain. He cannot pretend now to state with absolute certainty the length of all his services, nor to enter into the particulars which were connected with them, but he will omit nothing, he thinks, that is essential to a just decision in his case, or which is necessary to determine the appropriate of the services he has

formed. He pleads, as in his previous application, a loss of memory consequent upon his advanced years, but to the best of his recollection, he served not less than the periods mentioned below, and in the grades therein named: He entered the service as a private in 1776, in September as he thinks, and served during that year up to June 1777, not less than five months as a private in Capt. Baker's company, at various places in New York and Jersey. In June 1777 he was appointed a Lieutenant in Capt. Schuyler's company, and during that year served at least three tours of a month each, independent at the Woodbridge station between Amboy & Elizabeth town. Of these three tours two, he thinks, were under Capt. Schuyler, and one was under Capt. Sam d M c Naught. In the year 1778, up to July of that year, he served not less than four tours of a month each, independent on the same station engaged in guarding the lines, was also during the time of the battle of Monmouth. One of these tours was under Capt. M c Naught, one under Capt. Kinney, and the under Capt. Schuyler. At this time, to wit: in July 1778, Capt. Schuyler resigned his command, and this defendant was immediately elected Captain in his place (Wm DeGroat was made Lieut at the same time of the same company) During the remainder of this year, he served as Captain not less than three tours of a month each (besides extra services of probably two or three weeks in all) on the Woodbridge station under Col. Webster. In 1779 was out again, and performed all his regular tours (every other month) and much extra service, and served during the year six tours of a month each all on the same station, and ranging from Amboy to Bayside, and under Col. Webster. Their General was Head. In 1780 he served six tours of a month each, on

the same station, and engaged in the usual service of watching & preventing the depredations of the British Flouts, all under Col. Wetster. During this year was called up to Springfield, where in that engagement. In 1781, he served again his regular tour, and seven sine months in ten towns of a month each on the Woodbridge station under the believe Col. Brown. In 1782 he performed not less than five tours of a month each on the same station, and in the kind of service before mentioned under Col. Brown. He believes he also served in 1783 several tours, but he is not so certain of them as to claim specifically. He knows that he served as long as there were any services to render; and that the militia were out in '83. In addition to these regular tours, which he has specified, amounting in all to twenty six months as captain, seven months as Lieutenant and five months as a private, he knows that he performed a great deal of extra service, in each capacity, and that he would be within bounds to say that he did duty on alarm, for at least three months more as captain than he has specified. For these services he claims, and now applies for, the full pay of a captain. He refers for proof of his services, to the testimony heretofore produced of Joseph Garwick, John Field, Gabriel Murray, Richard Field, Mr. Deyo, and to the additional testimony of Jeremias B. Field, Dennis Field, Mr. Deyo, Joseph Garwick, John B. Field, Hendrick Field, & H. Field, surviving officers of the Revolution, which he now offers, and all of whom served under him.

That he served in his company under him three times, specifically that he served under him also afterwards in '81.
