Mrs. W. L. Benedict 4657 Aldrich Ave. South Minneapolis, Minn.
Madam:
I have to advise you from the records of this Bureau, it appears that Warrant No. 1573 for 500 acres of bounty land was issued April 1, 1790, on account of the services of Colonel Thomas Nixon of the Massachusetts Line, War of the Revolution.
There is no further information on file as to his services, nor any data on file as to family, owing to the destruction of papers in such claims, when the War Office was burned in 1814.
Owing to a lack of clerical force available for the purpose, only two histories are furnished each inquirer.
Respectfully,
E. W. MORGAN Acting Commissioner.
