This office has no record of service of any soldiers of the Confederate States.
The Revolutionary War records of this office have been searched and no claim for pension or bounty land found, based upon service of any soldier with surname Wofford, or similar spellings of that name.

I received a letter from the War Department bearing date the 15 th Decr. 1834 signed by S. L. Edwards informing me that a certificate of Pension of $80. per ann. was issued to me on the 24 th day of January 1833. and delivered to the Hon. J. M. Wayne. Since that time Mr. Wayne has been written to on the subject and informs me that he sent my certificate to Col. J. J. Rife the attorney that was employed to attend to my business Col. Rife has run away & I am fearful he has drawn all the money that was due me & taken my certificate with

him, I ask you will have the necessary examination made & if I have been defrauded out of my money as I expect I have been, to take the necessary steps to prevent it for the future. I am very old & feeble & greatly in need of the money that is allowed me by the Government, I did not believe that there was a man on earth that could of been so base as to have taken the money due me for my revolutionary services, from your high standing with the people in parts of the Government I not assured that my business will be without delay & correctly attended to.

As soon as your letters were received I began my enquiries as to what might have become of Robert Morris' acceptance of pension which the Commissioners of Pensions say was handed to me. I am not able to trace it - but if the Orphans was conveyed to Old Creek and he wrote to me upon the subject it must have been sent to him. If he has not received it by this time let me know and I will apply for the renewal of it. I am sure if it were present to me and him willing to admit the Commissioners decision as conclusive upon that point, I must have sent it to the person who wrote to me about it. Had the other correspondent about Morris, in Washington let me know

State of Georgia } ss
Franklin County }
On this 22 nd day of May 1835, before me the subscriber, a justice of the peace for the said County of Franklin, personally appeared Robert Brown, of the County of Habersham, who on his oath, declare that he is the same person who formerly belonged to the Company commanded by Captain Armstead, in the Regiment commanded by Colonel Gibson, in the service of the United States, that he is informed by a letter from J. L. Edwards, Commissioner of Pensions, that his name was placed on the pension roll of the State of Georgia, that a Certificate of that fact under the signature and seal of the Secretary of War, was issued for him, whereby  he is  informed and placed in the hands of the Hon. James M. Wayne, who, supposing that he may have enclosed the same to Col. Rusk of the said County of Habersham, this deponent states that the said Rusk absconed from Habersham some time last fall or winter, and the last account he has heard of him, he was in the Province of Texas, so that he has now no means within his knowledge of getting said Certificate from him, if he ever received it, This deponent further states that he has never received said Certificate, and has no knowledge what has become of it, except as above stated. He feels confident that said Certificate was issued for him, as he believes there is no other person of his name that has applied for a pension in the said County of Habersham. The reason that he (deponent) has made the above affidavit in Franklin County, instead of Habersham where he resides, is because, it is most convenient to his residence.
