Dear Madam:
Reference is made to your letter in which you request information in regard to Charles Knowles, of Connecticut, in the Revolutionary War.
You are furnished herein the record of the only Charles Knowles found on file in the Revolutionary War records of this office. The surname was searched under similar spellings.
The records of this office show that Warrant #1193, or # 2557, for three hundred acres of bounty land was issued April 13, 1792, on account of the service of Charles Knowles, Captain in Colonel Crane's Regiment of Artillery, War of the Revolution.
Because of the destruction of papers in such claims when the War Office was burned in 1800, there are no further data relative to his service, and no data relative to family.
If you desire information in regard to the location of the land referred to above, you should apply to The Commissioner of the General Land Office, this city, and furnish the following data-
B. L. Wt. #1193 or #2557-300 acres-issued April 13, 1792.
Very truly yours
A. D. HILLER Executive Assistant to the Administrator
