WARREN ODLE W. 4302 BA-J/MLB Am
Dear Madam:
Reference is made to your letter in which you request the Revolutionary War record of Warren Odle who served from Connecticut and was pensioned in Chenango County, New York.
You are furnished herein the record of Warren or Warran Odle or Odell as found in the papers of the claims for pension under File No. W. 4302, based upon his service in the Revolutionary War.
The date and place of birth of Warren Odle and names of his parents are not shown.
It was stated that Warren Odle was in the battle of Bunker Hill but no details of that service were given. While a resident of Dover, Dutchess County, New York, he enlisted January 1, 1776, and served one year as private in Captain Joseph Hait's company, Colonel Charles Webb's Connecticut regiment; he was in the battle at Flat Bush Hill on Long Island where he received a wound in the right thigh; he afterwards served as a driver of teams and baggage wagons under Captain Beebe and Colonel Hay in the Quartermaster Department and under Captain Henry Livingston and Colonels Philip Van Cortland and Pawling in the New York troops, was in the battles of Germantown and Monmouth and was discharged in January, 1781.
After the Revolution, he resided in New London, Columbia County, New York.
He was allowed pension on his application executed April 27, 1818, while residing in German, Chenango County, New York. In 1820, he was residing in Otselic, same county and state. He died there May 8, 1823.

Warren Odle or Odell married September 12, 1777, Anna Harrington. They were married at the home of her father, Isaac Harrington, in New Lebanon, New York, to which place said Isaac had moved his family from Preston, Connecticut, about September 10, 1776. The date and place of Anna's birth and name of her mother were not stated.
After the death of the soldier, his widow, Anna Odle or Odell, resided in Hamburg, Erie County, New York, for a time, then moved to Newburgh, Cuyahoga County, Ohio, where she was residing when she was allowed pension on her application executed August 16, 1839, aged eighty-three years.
It was stated that Warren Odle or Odell and his wife, Anna, reared a family of children; the three oldest were named respectively: Jonas, Abiatha and Lodema, their ages not given. In 1839, a daughter, Lucina Herrington, was aged thirty-four years and living in Cleveland Township, Cuyahoga County, Ohio; the name of Lucina's husband was not stated. No other names of children were designated.
In 1820, soldier's brother, Abeathy Odell, lived in Dover, New York. In the same year, his uncle, "Garsho" or Gershom Odell, was a resident of Jefferson, Schoharie County, New York. In 1818, the name Ebenezer Odell is shown but no relationship to the family was stated.
James Harrington, brother of soldier's widow, Anna, was born February 8, 1770, and in 1829 was living in New Lebanon, New York. No further family data are shown in the claims.
In order to obtain the date of last payment of pension, the name and address of the person paid in the case of soldier's widow, Anna Odell or Odle, and possibly the date of her death, you should write to the Comptroller General, General Accounting Office, Records Division, this city, and cite the following data: Anna Odell, widow of Warren, certificate #3151, issued December 18, 1839, rate $60 per annum, commenced March 4, 1831, Act July 4, 1836, Ohio (Pittsburgh) Agency.

Sir,
Herewith I enclose to your care the papers in the case of Warren Odell, in order that he may obtain additional proof of service in Col: Webb's Connecticut regiment. - The service in the New York line, as a driver of teams and baggage wagons, was not on the continental establishment, and therefore does not entitle the applicant to a pension.
I am, Sir,
Your humble Serv t .

Dec 5 1839
Sir -
I enclose to you a new application for a pension by Anna Odell —
and new papers in the case of Eliz. Cockran, who applied last winter —
In your letter of July 19/39 to Mr G.W. Lynde, you say that a pension cannot be allowed to Cynthia Mastick. Widow of Benjamin Mastick unless proof of service be made
Benj. Mastick served in Capt. Gardiner's Co. of Col. E. Brooks's Regt & drew an invalid's pension from say 1794. to 1830 - when he died —
Is not the service necessarily inferrible from the award of a pension?

The service must have been shown originally & the papers were probably burnt at this later day. The Evidence cannot be supplied anew either as to service or to time —
A pension Certificate was given on the 20 th July 1839 - to submit Sangdon of Ohio, for $30 under the act of July 4 th 1836 -
I beg to ask if she is not entitled to a larger sum under the law of June 7/32 & of the 3 rd sec. of the act of July 4/36 - ?

Warren Odell Priv:
1776 - Col. Webb's Conn. Reg.
1 year.
The service set forth in the New York line, was not on the continental estab- lishment - therefore, the evid- ence of service in that line, is of no avail. As to the ser- vice in Col. Webb's reg. for one year, it is proved only by one witness - another witness to prove this service is required.

BA-J/EEL Warren Odle-W.4302
Mr. Frederick C. Haacker 325 East 194 th Street New York, New York
Dear Sir:
Reference is made to your letter in which you request the record of Warren Odle, who served in the Revolutionary War in the Connecticut Line, received a pension in Chenango County, New York, and died May 8, 1823.
The data which follow were obtained from the papers on file in Revolutionary War pension claim, W.4302, based upon the military service in that war of Warren Odle or Odell.
The date and place of birth and the names of the parents of Warren Odle or Odell are not shown.
This was stated by the widow
It was stated that Warren Odle or Odell was in the battle of Bunker Hill; no details of this service were given. While residing at Dover, Dutchess County, New York, he enlisted January 1, 1776, and served one year as a private in Captain Joseph Hait's Company, Colonel Charles Webb's Connecticut Regiment; he was in the battle at Flat Bush Hill on Long Island where he received a wound in the right thigh; he afterward served as a driver of teams and baggage wagons under Captain Beebe and Colonel Ray in the Quartermaster Department and under Captain Henry Livingston and Colonels Philip Van Cortland and Pawling in the New York Troops, was in the battles of Germantown and Monmouth and was discharged in January, 1781.
Found in Col. Webb's Conn. book under 22nd in 8 mos serv. in 176-
as this serv. was mixed & contradictory I note it this way
After the Revolution, he resided in New Lebanon, Columbia County, New York.
He was allowed pension on his application executed April 27, 1818, while residing in German, Chenango County, New York. In 1820, he was residing in Otselic, same county and state.
He died in said Otselic, May 8, 1823.

Warren Odle or Odell married September 12, 1777, Anna Harrington. They were married at the home of her father, Isaac Harrington, in New Lebanon, New York, to which place Isaac Harrington had moved his family from Preston, Connecticut, about September 10, 1776. The name of Anna Harrington's mother was not shown.
After the death of her husband, Anna Odle or Odell resided in Hamburg, Erie County, New York, for a time; then moved to Newburgh, Cuyahoga County, Ohio, where she was residing when she was allowed pension on her application executed August 16, 1839, then aged eighty-three years.
It was stated that they reared a family of children: the three oldest were named respectively, Jonas, Spiatha and Lodema: their ages are not given: in 1839, daughter Lucina Herrington, was aged thirty-four years and resided in Cleveland Township, Cuyahoga County, Ohio. The name of her husband was not stated. No other names of children are given.
In 1820, soldier's brother, Abeathy Odell, lived in Dover, New York: in same year, Gershom Odell, who stated that the soldier was his nephew, lived in Jefferson, Schoharie County, New York. In 1818, the name Ebenezer Odell appears: no relationship to the family shown.
The widow's brother, James Harrington, was born February 8, 1770, and in 1839, resided in New Lebanon, New York.
There are no further family data.
Very truly yours
