Sir, On receiving the widow's papers upon which your pension was allowed admitted , It is evident that you were inadvertently allowed for more than the widow will justify -
The first term is six months in Captain Baldwin's Company Col Elmore's regiment in 1775; the 2 d six months in 1776 in Capt. Marvin's Com- pany; the 3 d nine months as a Sergeant -
The Regulations of the Department require that the duration of each term of actual service be speci- fied as well as the officers under whom each term was rendered - Col Elmore was not appointed a Colonel until 1776; The regimental officers in the 2 d term are not given; the 3 d term as far forth is contrary to the ordinary course of

Military service and requisitions explanation

Samuel French's aff id in the matter of Rhodena & Bick. application for restoration of Burgess

State of New-York } ss: Montgomery County }
1837 On the 30 th day of June Before me Joseph French a justice of the Peace in and for the said county aforesaid personally appeared Samuel French aged Seventy nine Years who first being duly sworn according to law doth on his oath say that he was a sol- dier in of the Revolution army of the Revolution, and is now a pensioner under the act of the 7 th of June 1832 - That in the Spring of the Year and as near as he can recollect about the first of March 1777 he enlisted for nine months service under one Rhoderick Berbe who recruited a company of about thirty soldiers and marched them to Al- bany where they were mustered this deponent be- and said being one of them, as Captain and until recently supposed him to have been in Commission as such and after being mustered entered the service under General Schuyler and as set forth in the declaration of this Deponent was Sta- tioned at various places from Albany to Lake George, but in more particularly detailing said service would say that soon after mustered, they were sent down the North River about ten miles from Albany and employed in cutting timber for about twelve days then returned to Albany and were put to driving Continental teams and Berbe having command of them as such he still retained the appellation of Cap- tain, and continued driving said teams un- der command of said Berbe during the prin- cipal part of the nine months - About the first of May went with loads of Military stores to Fort George and were there employed in carrying lumber and materials for vessels that were building on Lake George that season, but

which on approach of Burgoyne's army were burned, and was in the retreat before Burgoyne stopping at Fort Edward for a short time, then at Fort Miller & Saratoga and then to Still- water and stopped at Van Schaick's Island where they remained till Gen. Gates took com- mand. Was at Stillwater at the celebrated Fryday Battle but without the Camp in charge of the teams - was also at the decisive Battle and Surrender of Burgoyne, and after the Surrender was employed in transporting the baggage and Munitions of War according to their various destinations till within a few days of the expiration of the term of nine months. This deponent with some others was taken down with the measles of which it seem- ed impossible to recover till the time would expire when he was discharged but allowed his full time and pay and he left the compa- ny at Saratoga but Capt. Berbe remained and as he understood and believes served the full term of nine months. Samuel French

Dear Sir,
East Japan, Oct 30. 1837
I have enclosed the certificate of the service of the late Samuel Doty and Samuel French in support of the claim of the widow of the late Samuel Doty.
He submitted in lieu the affidavits of Samuel Doty and Samuel French in support of the claim of Rhodack Bube whose claim was suspended as per advice of yours of the 31 st March 1835. in which it stated that the first term is six months in Captain Baldwins company Col. Elmore Regiment. The first term claimed if I am not mistaken, 11 mo. 6 mo. in Captain Baldwins Co. which term expired while at Montreal and that he reengaged there and served not less than 5 mo. making as I think he expressed not less than 11 mo. Some time after receiving your letter above alluded to he called on me and said that he did not intend to republish that he served that term under Col. Elmore and that his reference to Col. Elmore was that he served among the troops with which he served in '77 which must have been a mistake of mine in answering his first declaration which was submitted by him without discovering the error that the troops with whom he served were commanded by Major Van Schaick or he believed of Albany and that he had found out the residence of two men who served with him one on the first and the other on the last term (viz) Samuel Doty and Samuel French and while making arrangement for obtaining their testimony and applying for a restoration he died and now on behalf of his widow this application is made and if an affidavit of his operations as to the error above mentioned could assist anything by way of explanation it can be obtained for he stated that he and one of his sons & I believe several others. I believe however that the testimony of Samuel Doty on that point is conclusive as much as he is drawing a pension himself and probably on the same service though as to that I am not certain and as to the last term disproved and particularly explained by the testimony of Samuel French who served with him and the same service is as I understand also sworn to by Joseph French and perhaps many others though I understand that it is denied to both the French as well as Bube but on reviewing the whole of them I cannot but believe that it will on so much evidence be allowed to them all
Please write on the subject as soon as may be
Very Respectfully Yours Ch. Wadsworth

Kodach Babu Samuel Doty, aft in the matter of Kodach Babu application for restoration of Pension

State of New York Rensselaer County 3 rd ss.
On the 23 rd day of July 1836 Before the undersigned a Commissioner of courts in and for the County aforesaid personally appre- hended Samuel Doty aged Eighty years who first being duly sworn according to law doth on his oath say that he was a Soldier in Revolution- ary Army of the United States that he then resided in a place now called Chatham in Columbia County & State aforesaid and is now a pensioner under the act of 1818. That in the Spring of the year 1775 and as he thinks in the month of May or early in June Captain Hezekiah Baldwin Lieutenant Nathaniel Rowley and Ensign Ros- well Bucke raised or mustered with a company of men from the vicinity of his aforesaid residence to the northward and in the month of August there- after Ensign Roswell Bucke returned and recruited a considerable number of soldiers this detachment among them and mustered them on to Lake George and joined the company aforesaid at that place and that Roderick Bucke brother of said Ensign Ros- well Bucke was there when this detachment arrived there and as he understood and believes joined the company when they first mustered from home that they remained at Fort George on the Lake till about December when they were ordered to Ticonderoga & thence to St Johns in Canada & thence to Montreal where they remained till the time for which they enlisted expired which he thinks was in December about about Christmas when Captain Baldwin returned home. And that Lieutenant Rowley left the company at Ticonder- oga when Ensign Bucke took command as Lieutenant and John Waterman was made Ensign. And at the ex- piration of the first engagement as aforesaid the troops were much wanted to remain when Lieutenant Roswell Bucke was chosen Captain and recruited many of the company this detachment Roderick Roderick Bucke & C and remained there till the evacuation of Montreal

on the second day of May 1776 the term of the enlistment having expired some time previous but had not intended to remain till then and soon after returned home This deponent would also state that said Russell Bube died of small pox die in the winter while at Montreal and as he thinks in February when the command of the company devolved upon Lotthrop Allen and during all of which time Rhodrick Bube served with this deponent and returned home to others
The Regiment to which they belonged was commanded by Major or Colonel (do not remember which) Goss Van Schaick & Generals Montgomery & Wooster commanded In the Battle of Montgomery went to Quebec and was killed &c This deponent further says that immediately after returning home or rather on returning he entered under Capt Lotthrop Allen & went to Fort Stanwix & other places on & near the Mohawk river and that in 1777 he volunteered among the Militia under Captain Leary then and went to Saratoga was at the taking of Bennington &c and that he understood and believes that the said Rhodrick who had previously been a Sergeant raised a company of men and joined the Independent detachment and was made or placed over a company of Waggons & was called Wagon Conductor or Captain of teams for nine months and that this deponent knew of his returning from said service but did not as he recollects see him in said service but that he obtained the title of Captain & as he understood the pay a Wagon conductor but has no knowledge of his being in the army after that time but understood that said Rhodrick was in service at White Plains in 1776 while this deponent was at Fort Stanwix though has no positive knowledge about it

And this deponent further says that he was acquainted with Roderick Bice before & since the Revolution down to the time of his death having resided in the same town of Chatham until a few years since he has resided with his children at Troy a part of the time & part in said Chatham

I herewith send you the declaration of Anne Beekes for the benefits of the act of Congress, of July 4, 1836. I observe that the regulations of the department require that the marriage be proved by "the certificate of the person who joined them in wedlock or by some person having knowledge of the fact".
The minister who married them it seems has been removed a long time since and from the best information I can obtain went to Canada leaving no record of his behind him of transactions of that kind but the affidavits of three of his sons sustaining their little record which is also furnished together with the affidavits of Miss Fanny Anne Beekes & Rhoda Doly furnish the next best evidence and that which may be satisfactory as to her being married to Roderick Beekes on the 2nd day of March 1777 which was before he went into the service the last time. The first page of the family record is the record of Anne Beekes family together with the marriage of said Anne to said Roderick Beekes on the second the names of Roderick & Anne Beekes I note when I examined it in relation to his age when his declaration was made as without it the Commissioner would not give. Since Anne Beekes declaration was taken at the court the certificate of Roderick Beekes then in her possession has been returned with her pension on drawing the widow of pension due her deceased husband.

I am told that the Bureau of Pensions contains the military history of Berderick Bube as a soldier of the Revolutionary War.

It is dated Aug. 29, 1832. He was born in Kent, Conn., Dec. 1, 1753; moved to Columbia Co., N.Y., about 1762 where he married Anna (Nancy) Vaughn. He enlisted four times between the years 1775 and 1777; twice in Col. Elmore's Regiment, New York State troops; was re-enlisted under Capt. Seth Marvin (Col. Sam. Drake) under imme- diate command of Gen. Washington; and served and received pay as cap- tain, in 1777, under Gen. Philip Schuyler.
He was not, however, commissioned.

Reference is made to your letter in which you request to know whether or not in the claim for pension, W. 16190, based upon service of Roderick Beebe in the Revolutionary War, it is shown that his wife, Anne Vaughn Beebe, rendered any service in the Revolutionary War; whether or not the same information is shown in the claim for pension, W. 21438, based upon service of John Jacobs, wife Ruby, and whether or not either wife is shown to have taken part in Indian warfare.
All papers in the claim for pension, W. 16190, based upon service of Roderick Beebe, have been examined very carefully and no service, whatever, is shown therein of any kind to have been rendered by his wife, Anne Vaughn Beebe.
Papers examined data ad. acted by MS

It is shown further, that Hannah Bixby, a sister of Ruby Jacobs, made affidavit April 20, 1838, in Niagara County, New York, that Ruby, after her marriage to the soldier, John Jacobs, "assisted him in making cartridges and fixing him away."

Madam:
I have to advise you that from the papers in the Revolutionary War pension claim W. 16190 it appears that Roderick Beebe the son of John Beebe, was born December 1, 1753 or 1754 in Kent, Connecticut. He was the son of John Beebe.
I found, when my letter was written, that I had left out his father & inserted it in a separate pendure.
While a resident of Chatham, Columbia County, New York he enlisted June 1, 1775 and served six months as a private in Captain Hezekiah Baldwin's Company, Colonel Goose Van Schaick's New York Regiment; he immediately re-enlisted and served as a private under his brother Captain Roswell Beebe (who was promoted to Major and died in February 1776), and Captain Lothrop Allen, New York Troops, service five months.
He enlisted June 1, 1776, served six months as Orderly Sergeant in Captain Marvin's New York Company and was at the battle of White Plains.
He enlisted March 1, 1777 and served nine months as Wagon-master or Captain of teams in the Quartermas-

ter Department.
He was allowed pension on his application executed August 29, 1832 while a resident of Chatham, New York, where he died January 2, 1836.
Soldier married March 2, 1777 in Spencertown, Columbia County, New York, Anne Vaughan, his cousin, born September 18, 1757. She was the daughter of John Vaughan and Anne Beebe of Lebanon, Connecticut, who were married June 5, 1753.
She was allowed pension on her application executed December 28, 1836 while a resident of Chatham, New York. She died August 31, 1849 in West Stockbridge, Berkshire County, Massachusetts at the home of her daughter Triphenia Palmer. The children of Roderick Beebe and his wife Anne were:
