United States Pension Office Washington, D. C.,
I am anxious to obtain the record of some Revolutionary ancestors and have been told that the Pension Dept. will furnish such records upon application.
First - John Mollihan of Greenbrier Co. now W. Va.
second John Mollihan of Lewis Co., now in W. Va.
My informant thinks the two above named Mollihans are the same person, but had moved from one point to the other, if the records show them to have been the same individual, then, I would like the records of another person -
Francis Boggs of Nicholas Co. now W. Va.
I would like to have all the genealogical information that the records hold concerning these ancestors, as I believe them to be -
I am rather ignorant as to the

procedures of making applications for such records - and if there are any pamphlets or blanks issued by the dept - that would help me in getting my information in the proper manner - I would appreciate copies - or suggestions as to where they may be obtained.
Yours very sincerely,
Mrs. Mary Frame 62 Fisher Road

Mrs. Mary Frame 62 Fisher Road Arlington, Massachusetts
BA-J/ady John Mollihon, R.7295.
Dear Madam:
The Revolutionary War records of this office show that John Mollihon, the name is shown also as Mollehon, applied for pension some time prior to January 13, 1835, in Nicholas County, or Greenbrier County, Virginia. The papers in his application were sent to the United States District Attorney for reexamination of his claim and were never returned, hence are not on file in this office at this time.
The report of the United States District Attorney shows that John Mollihon was a resident of Greenbrier County, Virginia, when he was a boy, that he was found to be too young to have served in the Revolutionary War, therefore not entitled to pension.
This office has no further information in regard to that soldier. No other soldier with this name has been found on the Revolutionary War pension records of this office.
Very truly yours
A. D. HILLER Executive Assistant to the Administrator
