Dear Madam:
I advise you from the papers in the Revolutionary War pension claim, S. 29271, it appears that Isaac Cady was engaged by the town of Alstead, New Hampshire, served as a private in Captain Moody Dustin's Company, Colonel Henry Dearborn's New Hampshire Regiment, and was discharged from the "American Regiment" by Henry Jackson, Brigadier General, on June 30, 1784, having enlisted for three years and having served for about two years and three months, exact date of enlistment not given.
He was allowed pension on his application executed April 6, 1818, while living at Kingston, Addison County, Vermont.
In 1820, he was fifty-six years old and referred to his wife, aged fifty years but did not give her name. He then stated that they had eighteen children, seven of whom were dead, the only names stated being: Harry aged eighteen, Alvin aged fifteen, James aged ten, Abigail Victoria aged five and Benjamin Jenna aged three years.

Due to the very large number of requests similar to yours, and the lack of a clerical force available for the purpose, the Bureau is unable to make immediate reply to each inquiry pertaining to soldiers of the Revolution.
Letters are being answered as rapidly as possible in order of receipt.
Very truly yours,
H. W. Morgan Acting Commissioner.

And in pursuance of the Act of the 1 st May 1820 I do solemnly swear, that I was a resident citizen of the United States on the 28 th day of March 1818, and that I have not since that time, by gift, sale, or in any manner disposed of my property or any part thereof with intent thereby to diminish it, or to bring myself within the provisions of an act of Congress, entitled "An act to provide for certain persons engaged in the land & naval service of the United States in the Revolutionary," passed on the 18 th day of March 1818; and that I have not, nor has any person in trust for me any property or securities, contracts or debts due to me, nor have I any income other than what is contained in the schedule hereto annexed and by me subscribed.

That since the exhibition of my first schedule, the following changes have been made in my property.
100 Acres of mountain land in Kingston etc. 75 Acres of which with house & building under a mortgage &c
The above mentioned 75 Acres given up on the mortgage, to E. D. Briggs on the 9th day of April 1821.  20 acres unlocated land in said Town
This was entered in the first schedule under a mistake - the same being a part of the hundred acres before mentioned
1 Old mare - Dead.
1 Mare. Sold to Capt. Butts in the Spring of 1822 for $50. in grain, Salt & tea, which was consumed in the family.
1 Three year old colt. - Exchanged for another horse - which was sold to Lemuel Richardson - February 1821 - for one cow & a pair of yearling steers. The cow I sold to Deaer Kendal, in April 1821, towards paying a note to Eben McSadd for grave stones. The steers were sold to Chester Goodrich in December 1821, for a note I gave to Judge Painter, for sheep I had of him to end prove return - amounting to about 30 dollars.
1 Yearling colt. - Now become the horse mentioned in the above schedule.

only being in my possession at that time.
1 Cow. Sold for labour.
4 Small hogs & pigs. Fatted & killed for the use of the family.
1 Old waggon & old plough. worn out.
1 Iron pail kettle & 2 broken do. Broken in pieces & sold for old iron.
1 Porridge pot. Sold to Reuben Jones - in the spring of 1822 - for $1.50, in wearing.
1 Iron kettle. Broken.
1 Wash kettle. Broken.
1 Tin Crasher - 1 Tin Sugar bowl - 2 pint bowls - worn out.
1 Milk pan. Broken.
The said deponent further states, that on the 9 th day of April 1824, the money for which the mortgage given in the first schedule was given, being due - E. P. Brigg, the mortgagee, required that the title should be made absolute to him, and I quite claimed the equity of redemption to him. He said Brigg - That the money due on the mortgage, which should have been stated, in the first schedule, to be 220, instead of 220 dollars, was more than the land could be sold for, and I supposed it better to discharge the equity of redemption, than to pay the necessary costs attending a foreclosure - being wholly unable to raise the money, if it had been for my interest. - The remaining 25 acres of said land, are of no use to assist in the support of myself & family, and cannot be sold for any but a very small amount. - That my health has failed since my former schedule for an account of a lameness in one leg & my debility, I am able to labour but little - that my wife and several of my family have been sick & under the care of physicians, so that I am now reduced to extreme poverty, and am unable, with my numerous & expensive family, to subsist without the aid of charity. Signed to Hildreth the 4 th day of June 1823, before the Court aforesaid. J. H. Clift Clerk.

I, Samuel Swift, Clerk of the County Court for the County of Addison in the State of Vermont, do hereby certify that it appears to the satisfaction of the Court that the said Isaac Cady did serve in the Revolutionary War, as stated in the preceding declaration, against the common enemy for the term of nine months under one engagement, on the Continental Establishments. I also certify, that the foregoing oath & the schedule thereto annexed are truly copied from the records of the said Court; and I do further certify that it is the opinion of the said Court, that the total amount in value of the property exhibited in the aforesaid schedule is Sixty four dollars & 27 Cents.

My information is meager, but his name will appear as a Pensioner - His name was Isaac Cady from Granville Vermont (Former name of town Kingston) He died there but he might have enlisted in some other New- England State perhaps New Hampshire I think he was born in He married Eunice Houghton of the same state - He died some one of the years between 1840 & 1845 I judge.
