Mr. George F. Chebre Phoenix New York
Sir:
I advise you that from the records of this Bureau it appears that two hundred acres of bounty land were allowed on Warrant 2614 which was issued July 31, 1793, on account of the services of Henry Deffenderf who was a lieutenant in the New York Line during the Revolution.
There are no further data on file relative to the soldier and no data as to his family, owing to the destruction of papers in bounty land claims when the War Office was burned in 1800.
Respectfully,
WINFIELD SCOTT Commissioner
Wt. no. 558 not used as official call upon Genl. Land Office, gave the information that it never was patented, but no. 2614 was. mmsv
