Sir:
I am writing to know if there is on file in your office any record of the military service during the Revolutionary war of Nicolas Coleman of Pennsylvania.
From the War Department at Harrisburg I learned that he was on the muster roll of Philadelphia, Cumberland,

and Westmoreland Counties.
Any other information which you can furnish me I shall be very grateful for.
Respectfully,
(Mrs. F. H.) Florence D. Henry.

Dear Sir:- I have been searching for the record of Nicholas Coleman in the Revolutionary War and have been told to write to you for any information you may be able to give me in regard to military and family record.
Yours respectfully,

Madam:
I advise you that the Revolutionary War records of this bureau show that two hundred acres of bounty land were allowed on account of the services of Nicholas Coleman as lieutenant in the Pennsylvania Line, on Warrant No. 438, which was issued December 8, 1792.
There are no papers on file relative to said claim, as they were destroyed when the War Office was burned in 1800, therefore there are no further data in regard to him or his family.
This is the only Nicholas Coleman found on the Revolutionary War records of this bureau.
Respectfully,
WINFIELD SCOTT, Commissioner.
