Commissioner of Pensions, Washington, D.C.
Dear Sir:-
From the records at Trenton New Jersey, I find that John McIntyre or McIntire enlisted as private Capt. Thos Reading's Sixth Co., Col. Elias Dayton's in the Revolutionary Third Regiment army, and was in service until May 1777.
I would like to know if your records show the date of this soldier's death, and if his wife's name was Ann Van Horne McIntyre and if this McIntyre came from New Jersey. The New Jersey record shows his Pension claim to be No. 53592.
Please let me know what your records show of the service of John McIntire in the Revolutionary War.
Do your records show service of Peter Young in the Revolutionary War? He was from New Jersey.
Yours truly,
Daisy P. Zabriskie

Gentlemen:
Will you please inform me if there is a record in the records of pensions for the following persons:
John McIntyre, of Hunterdon and Warren Counties, N.J., whose wife was Jemima Van Horne, born 1759, died 1852, of Warren County, New Jersey, married John McIntyre in 1780. She was the daughter of the Hon. Thomas Van Horne of Warren County, New Jersey. It seems that John McIntyre of Hunterdon County served in the war, and we wish to ascertain if his wife was Jemima VanHorne, of Warren County, New Jersey. Jemima Van Horne McIntyre lived after her husband died, and she may have received a Rev. War widow's pension; if she received a widow's pension the record of her application would be on file in your office.
Will you please advise if you have a record of Rev. War soldier, John McIntyre's widow, Jemima Van Horne McIntyre? Their home was, at least some of the time, in Warren and Hunterdon Counties, New Jersey.
Jemima Vanhorne McIntyre's daughter, Ann McIntyre Opdycke moved to Ohio, and may have made application for pension from Ohio. They lived near Utica, Ohio. This may make a confusion in searching for the records, and the application may have come from Ohio, instead of New Jersey, should Jemima Van Horne Opdycke passed her declining years with her daughter, in Ohio. have
We would appreciate any information that you may have on the record of John McIntyre, of New Jersey, and his wife, Jemima VanHorne, of Warren County and Hunterdon County, N.J.
Yours respectfully,
Mrs. W. Zabriskie, Pagosa Junction, Colorado.
Concerning Rev. War soldier, John McIntyre of New Jersey, and his widow, Jemima VanHorne, of Warren County, New Jersey.

Pagosa Junction, Colorado. Nov. 4, 1939.
Commissioner of Pensions, Washington, D.C.
Dear Sir:
Will you please advise me whatever you can about John McIntyre and his wife, Jemima VanHorne, of Warren County, New Jersey?
Jemima VanHorne was born in 1759 and died in 1852. She lived in Broadway, Warren County, New Jersey, and may have also lived in Hunterdon County. She married John McIntyre in 1780. She was the daughter of the Hon. Thomas Van Horne and Jane Ten Eyck.
Her husband, John McIntyre, of Hunterdon and Warren Counties, New Jersey, served in the Revolutionary War, and was supposed to have received a Veteran's Pension. As he died first, Jemima, his wife, may have received a widow's pension, as there were a number of children.
If, in the application of this Rev. War veteran, there is mention made of his wife, Jemima Van Horne, please send a copy of the veteran's Rev. War service, and any information that your records may have relating to John McIntyre and his wife, Jemima Van Horne, who was born in Warren County, N.J. in 1759.
If there is any charge for this service, please advise the amount due. Thank You,
Yours respectfully,
Mrs. W. Zabriskie,
