On this 27 th day of February in the year 1856, personally appeared Betsey Blackman in open Court aged 58 years a resident of the town of New Milford in said County, Who being sworn according to law doth on oath declare and say, that she is the Oldest child of James Lockwood late of New Milford deceased, and of Ann Lockwood his wife - That said James Lockwood as she verily believes, and as she always understood, enlisted as a private soldier into the service of the U. S. in the War of the Revolution some time in the Spring of the year 1777 and continued as a private in Capt Scam Scamfield's company Col Ennis Regiment during the campaign of that year a period of eight to nine months that he afterwards entered the service in successive campaigns, and was promoted to the rank of Lieutenant - and that in all he was in the service Four or five campaigns; but I am unable to state the names of his Officers, the commencement and close of each period of his service - I have often heard him say that he enlisted as a private and served as such for

a period of eight or nine months, - I have heard him say that he was at horse neck when Putnam made his escape; at that time I think he was acting as a court guard; I heard him say that he was first at the Execution of Major Quade, and was in the Battle of White Plains, and was at Danbury when Gen. Wooster was killed. Many particulars which I have heard him relate I have forgotten.
He was married to my Mother at this town on or about the day of 179: by one Reuben Warner a Justice of the Peace - and they lived together till his decease which took place in this town on or about the day of April 1807 th and that his Widow Ann Lockwood Remained single and unmarried till her decease, which took place in this town in November the 17 th - 1852, leaving the following children then surviving viz -
Betsy Blackman aged 56 Dec 15 th 1856
Mary M c Kenny aged 54 Febr y 15 th 1856
There were two other children younger Anna & Clarinda Who have been absent & unheard of for a period of more than fourteen years -
Their ages if living would have been respectively about 49 & 52. the day and month of their births is forgotten.
She further declares that her Mother applied for the Pension due her under the act of July 29 th 1848, but failed to receive it in her life time - That all of the Papers relating to her said application are on file in the Pension Bureau - She would therefore

Respectfully refer to said application for Proof of her said father's Service, of his Marriage to her Mother said Ann Lockwood, and the time of his decease.
She makes this application in her own behalf, and in behalf of her sister said Mary M c Henry her surviving sister - I have heard my father speak of being at West Point when Arnold attempted to give up that Post. X  her Betsey Blackman Mark

I certify that on application for evidence of the service of James Lockwood, in the war of the Revolution, I have examined the documents remaining in this Office and do not find that name on any Pay Roll now in this Office.
On a Pay Table Ledger in this Office, I find an account with "Capt Rubeus Scofield, Col. Enos Battallion 1777," in which company James Lockwood is supposed to have served, when Capt. Scofield is charged "June 17 th 1777 To order "on Frazr. £576. Also Jan'y 17 th 1778 To do. £1365. 6. 3." Total £1,881. 6. 3. This is balanced by his account due Jan 17 th 1778. £1,881. 6. 3.
Many of the Pay Rolls for the service of the militia of this State in the war of the Revolution are lost, and I can find no pay Roll for the service of Capt. Scofield's company, as shown by the above account with Capt. Scofield.

Who being Sworn according to law, did on oath de- clare and say, that he was well acquainted with James Lockwood who lived and died in this town. I knew Mr Lockwood from my boyhood to the time of his death; he lived close by my father, and went out to work by days work. I have worked with him a great many days. He always went by the name of Lieutenant Lockwood. I have heard him tell over about his being in the army. I have often heard him say that he enlisted as a private and was afterwards put in Lieutenant. I have heard him tell about being stationed for some time at the San Pits and of being at West Point about the time that Arnold attempted to give up the Post at that place. I have heard him say that he was stationed for some time as a coast guard at Stamford in this state that place
Mr Lockwood told me that he was in the War Four or Five campaigns in all I have forgotten the time that he said he went into the War and when he left the service. I recollect distinctly that he said he entered the service as a private

and as near as I can remember he said he entered the service under Capt Scoville. He was always reputed and believed to have served as a private and afterwards promoted to the rank of lieutenant in the Revolutionary War - I know that he died at this town some 30 or 40 years since the date I do not remember.
I was present at his marriage to Anna his wife. They were married in this town by Ruben Warner Esq a Justice of the Peace. I recollect that Esqr Warner told Mr Lockwood that he never married a couple & that if he would let him Warner marry them, that he would give him Lockwood a gallon of wine, which was done.
They had by the marriage three chil- four chil- that I forgot Drew & Betsy. Now Mrs Blackman Abigail now the wife of John M c Kenney - Anna who has been absent and unheard of for a period of more than fourteen years. Betsy lives in this town and is the wife of Andrew Blackman. Mary still lives -

I Deborah Carmen of New Milford in the County of Litchfield and State of Connecticut of lawful age depose and say—
That I am the daughter of John Carmen of said New Milford, and further state that I remember of seeing James Lockwood (commonly called Lieut. Lockwood) at my father's House in New Milford frequently. He and my father were often talking about the Revolutionary war and about what took place while they were together in the Army. I have always supposed and now believe that said Lockwood was in the Revolutionary war and that he did duty either as a private or Officer, and I have no reason to think he was an Officer only from the fact that he was called "Lieut. Lockwood". I was well acquainted with his wife Anna, when they lived together as husband and wife in New Milford and I saw her about four weeks since at my father's house in New Milford, where she was making a visit. I moved with my father to New Milford in the year 1898, and at that time the said James Lockwood was living with his wife Anna in a house near the "four corners" about three miles from where we lived. I have always understood that the said Lockwood and Anna Perry was married a few years previous to our coming to New Milford and that they were married by Reuben Warner Jr who acted as a Justice of the Peace. I have heard the said Warner say that he married them, and laugh about the predicament which was had at the wedding. I have lately seen a record of the marriage in a Book now at the House of William Warner a son of said Reuben's and Mrs. Fannie Warner told me that it was the Book in which her father in law kept a record of the marriages he performed. I can also state that I am well acquainted with

The said Reuben Warner, hand writing as he was a man who in his life time done a great amount of public business, and from my knowledge of his hand writing I have no doubt but that the record heretofore spoken of, was made by him, and further the deponent saith not.

I Hannah Knowles of New Milford in the County of Litchfield and State of Connecticut of lawful age depose and say -
That I am now Eighty six years old, and that I was well acquainted with Lieut James Lockwood and his wife Anna Lockwood. Her maiden name was Anna Perry. She was married to Lieut James Lockwood by Deacon Warner Jr an acting Justice of the Peace. They were married at a house in New Milford about one mile east of where I then lived, and now live. I was present at the wedding and saw the ceremony performed, I assisted in preparing for the wedding. They had a large party at the wedding - one part of the entertainment consisted of a "Pop pie" made of 16 Chickens. They were married about a dozen years after the close of the Revolutionary war, and I think prior to 1800. He went by the name of Lieut Lockwood, but whether he obtained the title for services performed whilst he was in the Revolutionary war or not, I do not know. The said Lockwood died in New Milford some years ago. I saw the said Anna Lockwood wife of the said James Lockwood about four weeks ago. She came to my house and made a visit staid over Sunday. She is in very needy circumstances and further deponent saith not.

I John Carmen of New Milford in the County of Litchfield and State of Connecticut of lawful age depose and say-
That I am now ninety two years old and am a Revolutionary Pensioner, and I further state that I was well acquainted with James Lockwood at the time of the Revolutionary war and that while I was in the service and under the command of Capt Scoville the said James Lockwood did duty in the Regiment with me and I think at one period of time he did duty in the same Company with me although I am not positive as to this. The Regiment in which I did duty was at one portion of the time commanded by Roger Eno Esq and I think we had another Colonel during a part of the time I was in the service, and which of the two Colonels commanded the Regiment at the time the said James Lockwood did duty I cannot now remember. The said Lockwood was in the Regiment to which I was attached at the time I enlisted, and he was there when I left, he went by the name of Lieut Lockwood but whether he was an Officer in the Army I do not know. After I left the Army (some years after) I removed from Brookfield to New Milford, and soon after I arrived there I ascertained that the said Lockwood lived in New Milford, and he came to my House to visit me frequently. He married a woman by the name of Anna Perry as I was told, and they lived together in this town as husband and wife until he died, which was some thirty years or more since. I remember of talking over with the said Lockwood a great many times what took place while we were in the Army, but cannot now state how long the said Lockwood was in the service. But I do remember

perfectly well that he was in the service when I enlisted and when I left. I was well acquainted with the said Lockwood's wife Anna, and she was at my House in New Bedford about four weeks since and made me a visit, and further deponent saith not.

The Post Master of this village has handed me your communication to him of the 16 th & desires me to re- ply.
Reuben Seaford , who was a Revolutionary Captain, died in this Town leaving a son Abishai, who has also been dead for some years.
Through the aid of Capt. Seaford papers several in this vicinity rec d . pensions, but they are all dead now. The rolls of Capt. Seaford are at the Pension Department at Washington & several of his papers were lost in a fire in this village some 10 years ago, & I very much doubt if any papers can now be had of his in this vicinity that would in the least aid in obtaining pensions.

Permit me to state to you that I have received a letter from the Compt roller, Office Hartford Ct which I have thought proper to enc- lose and transmit to you, Also one from Stamford Ct in answer to enquiries in relat- ion to Capt Scoville's papers you will perceive by the latter that Capt Scoville's papers were some of them sent to the Pension Department and the remainder destroyed by fire. An Attorney of this place has offered his assistance provided he shall be entitled to a third.

that may be received, As there has been considerable Money expended in making out the Application Proof of Marriage &c, I have thought proper to decline the proposition at present, Could you possi- bly with the Evidence already presented grant the Pension it would be gratefully and thankfully received, as the Applicant has been deprived of one of her Limbs for twenty Years and is in needy and distitute circumstances. Please reply on the receipt of this and you will much Oblige a friend

Madam
I have this day recd. your letter of the 8 th ult.
I have examined our documents again, and do not find any evidence of the service of James Lockwood as a Lieutenant. Col. Eno's Regiment was raised in May 1777 to serve till January 1778, and I find by an account on the books in this office that Capt. Reuben Scofield was one of the Captains in that Regiment, and the Pay Roll of his company amounted to £1101. 0. 5 for their wages, but we have no list of the men who composed the company. If it will be of any use to you to show that Col. Eno and Capt. Scofield served at that

then a certificate showing the service can be given,
I am very respectfully Yours obed. servt Geo. Robinson

Sir
I am not sure whether you are the proper person to address on the following Subject if you will not please excuse the liberty I have taken and forward it to the Person intended & much Oblige a friend
I wish to enquire of you what there has been taken out in favor of the Widow Anna Lockwood a Pension within the last four or five years. She was the Wid of James Lockwood Esq, he was a Lieutenant in the Revolutionary war and died in 1807 they were from New Milford Litchfield County Ct she being the only remaining his Widow was as we supposed entitled to the benefit of the Act of 1836 granting Pensions to Widows

she neglecting to take the benefit of the S d act until a late period of her life. One Calvin Bettz of Milton Ct was employed by her to assist in procuring the necessary proof & he claimed he had obtained all the information needed except his Name & that could not be found. The S d Bettz took her the Widow Anne Lockwood to Kirkwall where Mr Bullie, Representative I believe to Congress at the time resided and he stated to her that all that was necessary was to find his Name tho' she lived for three or four years and died in want and on the town of New Milford she was unable to read or write but signed her Name with a cross. As it was my Mother's last request that I should get the proof held by Mr Bettz I accordingly wrote him but receiving no answer and not knowing but he had left the Town I was informed by the P.M. of that town that he still

Resided there I wrote him again but can obtain no answer feeling that all was not right has induced me to write to you Will you please inform me on the receipt of this and you will by so doing much Oblige
