Gentlemen, -
Rev. W.
Will you kindly send me copy of Pension granted David Bartol or his widow - He was of Marblehead or Salem Mass. and died 23 Feb 1835 in either Salem or M'head He is not the

David Bartol who served in Penn. Line as musketeer. For her died Oct 13, 1818 date of issue of pension etc.
The judge of probate in Essex Co. in answer to a petition from Hannah Bartol , widow of Samuel, refers to the statement that her husband was a Revolutionary pensioner who died in Feb 1835 (23 rd ) so there is no doubt that he received a pension —
I will remit at once upon receipt of charges.
Very truly

Dear Sir:
I am very desirous of obtaining for genealogical purposes any information that there may be in your records regarding Samuel Bartol (Bartoll) and his family. He was a sailor in the Revolutionary War, serving on the "Eagle", commanded by Captain William Groves in 1780, and is recorded as a pensioner of the United States.
I should be very glad to meet any fee or other expense that may attend obtaining the transcript of such record.
Yours truly,
