Madam:
I have to advise you from the papers in the Revolutionary War pension claim W. 69, it appears that Joseph Bogle enlisted in Cumberland County, Pennsylvania in 1777 and served more than three months in Captain Gibson's Pennsylvania Company.
He enlisted in Rockbridge County, Virginia, in the fall of 1779 and served three months in Captain Gray's Company, Colonel Boyer's Virginia Regiment.
He enlisted in 1781 and served three months in Captain Charles Campbell's Virginia Company, and was at the surrender of Cornwallis.
Soldier married January 20, 1786 in Greene County, Tennessee, Margaret Houston. He died April 1, 1814 and she was allowed pension on her

application executed May 13, 1845, while a resident of Monroe County, Tennessee, aged eighty-one years.
There is no further data on file as to family.
The above noted Joseph Bogle (all spellings searched), is the only soldier of that name found on the the Revolutionary War records of this Bureau.
This Bureau is unable to furnish the history of a soldier of the Revolution, unless a claim for pension or bounty land has been made on account of his services, and a careful search of the records fails to show such a claim on file on account of the services of any Samuel Bogle and Thomas McCulloch.
Respectfully
WINFIELD SCOTT Commissioner.

Personally appeared James A. Coffin before me William Williams Justice of the Peace for Monroe County, and made oath that he is informed & believes that he has lost or mislaid the Pension certificate of Margaret Boyle widow of Joseph Boyle who was a private & died 1 st day of April 1814. Said certificate was issued 24 Dec. 1845 and numbered 7480, as affiant is able to state by reference to a paper heretofore prepared to draw pension for Mrs Boyle and not used. Affiant once prepared a power of atto for Mrs Boyle & had some money drawn for her as he remembers, & has no doubt of the fact. He is informed that the certificate was left in his care & he so believes, but he is utterly unable to find it or tell where it is. So the matter has rested for a year or more, hoping that the certificate might be found. Affiant thinks the arrear ages of pension are due Mrs Boyle from Sept 4. 1846 at $20. per annum. Application is therefore made to the proper department for a duplicate certificate, which please enclose to affiant.
Sworn to & subscribed before me January 12 1850.

Sir:- We are trying to trace the military record of William X Keeble, who served in the Revolutionary war. The records of our County Court show that on March 24, 1835, he was a pensioner as a soldier in the Revolutionary War, died December 30, 1834, leaving his widow, Mary Keeble surviving him. (Records Volume 5, page 56.) It further shows that on November 5, 1849, that they Mary Keeble and Eleanor Harris were the widows of Revolutionary soldiers and entitled to pensions, and the clerk ordered to certify the record to the Commissioner of Pensions accordingly. (Records Vol. 6, page )
Tradition has it that William Keeble was a native of Prince William County, Virginia, that he served in the Artillery; but we have no information from any source as to whether he served in the Virginia line or some other State or Colony. We would respectfully ask for a statement as to his service as given by the records.
Further, we have a record of the Court (Vol. 6, Sept. 1, 1845) that Joseph Margaret Bogle was entitled to pension as widow of Revolutionary soldier. We would be pleased to learn the name of her husband, and where he served.
Very Respectfully,
Your Obedient Servant,
