Commonwealth of Massachusetts Middlesex County, ss. -
On this twenty eighth day of September in the year eighteen hundred & thirty six personally appeared before me S. P. D. Judge of the Court of Sessions in & for said County of Middlesex, Sarah Miller a resident of Woburn in said County, aged eighty years, who being first duly sworn, according to law in order to obtain the benefit of the provision made by the act of Congress, passed July fourth, A.D. 1836. That she is the widow of Job Miller, late of said Woburn, deceased, a Revolutionary soldier, & a pensioner under the act of Congress of 1818, & was stricken off the roll, by the act of 1820, on account of having a small income. & made application again under the act of June 1832, but died before the certificate was received. That, in this last application, no attempt was made to prove any more service in, among than was proved on the first application in 1818, when proof of nine months only was necessary to obtain a full pension; That she believes he was entitled to the full amount allowed to any private, as he was not in the service of the United States nearly the seven years of the Revolutionary war, either as a volunteer - substitute, or as a drafted Militiaman; That she has often heard her said husband relate to her & to others that he went to Concord & was in the fight, on the 19th of April 1775. & then enlisted in the eight months service the last of April in that year & remained during that time & was stationed at Cambridge. That in 1776. He went again to Northumberland, last does not remember where, or how long he was gone, or engaged for, but believes it was six months; That he soon after enlisted again, or went as a substitute, & did not return, except

for a few days at a time, on a furlough, as she understood him, until near the close of the war. He often related that he was present, at the time & place, when & where Major Andree was killed. That he saw him, & was at one time at Fishkill at another in New Jersey & various other places but she cannot remember where he was in, at any period, if she ever knew, nor who commanded any Regiment he belonged to except at one time, he was in Col. Vose's Regiment. She will remember that after her marriage to said Miller, he was in the army all the time & only came home to see her & his family for a few days at a time, I believe he was in the service, at least six, or seven years in all.
She further declares that she was married to said Col. Miller on the twenty seventh day of February in the year seventeen hundred & seventy six. That her husband, the said Col. Miller, died on the second day of November in the year 1832, & that she has remained a widow ever since that period as will more fully appear by reference to the proof hereto annexed. That her said husband was 82 years of age when he died. That her maiden name was Sarah Gold. She belonged to said Delaware & her said Miller to Charleston & they went to Bellemeun in said county, adjoining said Delaware to be married on account of their being no settled minister in Delaware at the time, & they had relations in said Bellemeun. She has no documents or papers whatever & never had any to prove his services, except taken or made by his officers or at the time of the war. She has received what was due from the U. States, on the certificate sent to

him. under the act of 1832. after his death, but does not remember how much was allowed, or how much she received
