Dear Madam:
Reference is made to your letter in which you request information in regard to Frederick Strickland (Stricklin), private in Captain Dixon's company, North Carolina regiment, War of the Revolution.
The data furnished herein were obtained from the papers on file in pension claim, S. 39092, based upon the service of Frederick Stricklin during the Revolutionary War.
Frederick Stricklin (the name is not found Strickland) enlisted in Hillsboro, North Carolina, May 7, 1781, served as private in Captain Wynne Dixon's company, Colonel Dixon's North Carolina regiment, was in the battle of Eutaw Springs, and was discharged in June after the surrender of Cornwallis.
He was allowed pension on his application executed January 10, 1824, then aged eighty-two years and living in Lawrence County, Tennessee. The date and place of his birth are not shown in the claim, nor are the names of his parents given.
He referred in 1820 to his wife, Mary, as about his "own age", and to a son, Zachariah, but he did not give his age. There are no further data in this claim concerning the family of the soldier.
In order to obtain the date of last payment of pension, the name and address of the person to whom

paid, and possibly the date of death of this pensioner, you should address The Comptroller General, General Accounting Office, Records Division, Washington, D. C., citing the following data:
