Dear Sir:
It appears from the records of this office that Warrant Number 215 for three hundred acres of bounty land was issued June 29, 1789, to M. McConnell, assignee, on account of the services of Jacob Burner, captain in the German Regiment, War of the Revolution.
There are no further data relative to his service and none whatever relative to his family due to the destruction of papers when the War Office was burned in 1800.
The above is the only soldier named Jacob Burner found on the Revolutionary War records of this office.
Very truly yours
A. D. HILLER Assistant to Administrator.

Dear Sir:
Reference is made to your letter in which you request information in regard to John and Jacob Burner, soldiers of the Revolutionary War.
Revolutionary War data furnished by this office are obtained from claims made to the United States for pension and bounty land based upon military service of soldiers of that war.
A careful search of the records has been made in your behalf and no record found of such claims having been made on account of the services of John Burner.
It is suggested that as a possible means of securing information in regard to military service of soldiers of that war, you apply to The Adjutant General, War Department, this city.
You are herewith furnished information in regard to Jacob Burner.
Very truly yours
A. D. HILLER Assistant to Administrator.
