Madam:
I have to advise you that from the papers in the Revolutionary War pension claim, W.10433, it appears that Elijah Boardman , while a resident of Wethersfield, Hartford County, Connecticut, enlisted April 22, 1777, in Colonel Samuel B. Webb's Connecticut Regiment. He was promoted to Sergeant October 1, 1777, and in July, 1782, he became ill with inflammatory rheumatism and was allowed to return home where he remained until he was discharged June 9, 1783.
On account of disability resulting from an inflammatory rheumatic disorder contracted while in the service, he was allowed pension from September 4, 1793.
He married September 16, 1781, at Rocky Hill, Hartford County, Connecticut, Mercy Nott. He died September 4, 1808. His widow, Mercy, was allowed pension on her application executed August 16, 1836, at which time she was eighty-three years of age and a resident of New York City.

In 1836 a son, James Boardman, was living at 168 1/2 Spring Street, New York City.
There is no further data on file relative to the family of the soldier.

Upon a comparison of the certificate of marriage of Mrs Mercy Boardman to the late Elijah Boardman with the rolls, it is shown that his service terminated the 22 d ap l 1780 being 17 m os previous to the date of the intermarriage - This important fact was overlooked in the letter of 27 ult , when you were informed that the difficulty of the case was confined to the defective authentication of the church record - If your father was in service at any time subsequent to the marriage your mother would be entitled to the benefit of his whole service,

Dear Sir
Your last letter has been rec d informing me of the new difficulty, which has arisen in my Mother's cause, her claim I am sure is a just one, and I think if you will examine his warrant, as a sur d dated at West Point, in 1783 & likewise the certificate of Col t Webb accompanying it, dated in 1792 certify d that he enlisted in 1777 for during War, and that he rec d a Badge of honor for Six years faithful service, you will find that the Role which you examined must be erroneous, Mr. Goff who servi d in the same reg t & I believe in the

Same company has likewise sworn to his services, and you have his affidavits in your possession. I hope after a minute examination you may be satisfied that her claim is a just one, but if you should be dissatisfied I think by visiting Connecticut, again I can obtain any evidence you may want in support of her claim.

The service of Elijah Boardman as a Sergt of Webb's Regt. Quant. Line is very established and the only difficulty is one of form which cannot be dispensed with. The certificate of the entry on the Church records should be verified by the person having charge of them before a justice and duly authenticated.
