That the entire the service of the United States under the following named officers and served as herein stated.
That he was born in the Town of Ashford County of Windham and State of Connecticut on the twenty ninth day of April one thousand seven hundred and sixty five and his age is recorded in the Town Clerk's office of Ashford aforesaid. That his name stands on the rolls as Isaiah Chaff junior. That he was living with his Father in Ashford aforesaid when first called into service which was in the year 1781 soon after Arnold Burned New London. That at this time he went as a substitute for his Father Isaiah Chaff who was drafted. Though he was enrolled in his own name. That he went and served two months at this time in the militia of Connecticut under one Capt. Robinson but cannot recall his Christian name. The Lieutenant's name was Joseph Burnham of Ashford aforesaid. That they lay at Fort Griswold in Groton in the State of Connecticut opposite to New London. That they had at this time no higher officer than a captain whose name was Benjamin Dyer who ranked before his captain Robinson. That when he had served his time out he was dismissed but received no discharge.
That he was in no battle at this time but lay to guard the fort and worked in repairing it.
That about the last of May or first of June 1782 he went on another tour of two months in the militia of Connecticut under Colonel Samuel Mather in a company commanded by Captain Huntington and lay at Fort Trumbull in New London in the State of Connecticut. That at this time he was drafted in his own name and was in no engagement but lay to guard the fort & help repaired it.
That at the close of the last term in 1782 before he went home he enlisted in the State Troops of Connecticut for the term of one year which he served part of the time at Fort Griswold and part of the time at Fort Trumbull in the same manner as he had the other two trips. That Colonel Mather was his chief officer this year & Benjamin Dyer commanded his company.
That in September or October of this year while lying at Fort Trumbull they discovered a vessel which they supposed was carrying provisions to the enemy which they watched and at length took and found it heavily laden with all manner of provisions for that purpose which the government condemned to its own use.

That immediately after the expiration of the last term of service and he thinks within one week he again enlisted under the same officers as mentioned in the last preceding term for the term of three months and lay all the time at Fort Trumbull aforesaid in New London in the same manner as he had served the other terms before and when his time was out he was discharged as aforesaid and never in any of the terms received any written discharge. That during all this time when he was not in actual service he made his home with his father in Ashford aforesaid and until he was twenty one years old in 1786 that with little exception he lived in Ashford aforesaid until the year 1820 when he removed to Volney in the County of Onondaga and State of New York where he now lives.
That he is known to Stephen Daff, Satten Parker, Andrew Gillet, best Samuel May, Amos Griffith, James Butcher and others in his present neighborhood who can testify to his character for truth and veracity and to their belief of his services. That he knows of no other person except Silas Snow whom affidavit is herewith sent who can testify as to the foregoing terms of service.
He hereby relinquishes every claim whatever to a pension or annuity except the present and declares that his name is not on the pension roll of the agency of any State or Territory. — Subscribed & sworn to before me this day & year aforesaid — Josiah Chaffee D. R. Puelan Dep. Clerk

Nantucket Count. 7 Aug. 1844.
On application for evidence of the service of Josiah Chaffee in the war of the Revolution, I have examined the documents remaining in this office relating to that war, but do not find any payrolls of Captains Robinson, Huntington & Durgee, under whom he is said to have served.
In a "Pay Table" Book are the following entries, — under date of 18 March 1777,
"Cap. Elijah Robinson . . . . . Dr. To order on Treasr. in Acc't your Com't. to Providence . . . 96. 0. 0"
under date of 17 June 1777,
"Cap. Elijah Robinson (Ely's Batt. '77). Dr. To order on Treasr. to raise his C o p r v r ict. (he to acct.) 400. 0. 0"
under date of 17 January 1778,

and from entries in connection with last one, it appears probable that this

occurred at the New London Alarm in 1778.
In a "Pay Table" Book under date of 28 May 1783 is this entry,

I am informed that there was a resolution or act of the last Congress passed on or about the 23rd day of Jany 1845, giving the widows of Revolutionary pensioners who are entitled to draw under the act of June 1844, a pension from 1836, to the time they draw under the act of 1838, or 1843 or 1844, but I have not seen any such act or resolution. Can you not send me a paper containing the same or refer me to the number of the Cong. Globe in which it may be found or state to me the provisions of the same? My object in inquiring for the act is to see whether widow Joanna Clapp of Palerme N.Y. is entitled to the benefits of the act. She made her first application in Nov 1843, but from a defect in the declaration & proof her papers were returned and perfected & sent on in July last & then the pension came in from 17th Sept 1839 (the time her husband died) to March 4, 1845, and the money has been drawn. If you would oblige me in this will be a great service

est - it is a favor although I am aware that you dislike a poor information so perhaps you might without much trouble send me a blank proper for bread
I have the honor to be yours

I hope therefore that she can have her certificate for her pension without difficulty as you will confer a favor by forwarding the same to me, I suppose that this affidavit must pass thro' your office before she can draw her back pension.

Dear Sir
Some weeks since I enclosed to you a certificate from the Compt. of Com. in the matter of application of Joanna Chapman for a pension, desiring that you would (under the circumstances of the case) advise me as to whether the proof taken when her husband obtained his pension would not answer as no certificate of such service can be obtained now? I was sorry to trouble you but explained to you why I did in my letter. I have not heard from you since I enclosed the certificate. Perhaps it is wholly inconsistent for you to give the advice I ask, if so you will please return the certificate to me, although could I get your opinion it would probably save trouble & expense.

Allow me to propound just one other question in relation to the case of widow Chaffee. You say that she did not furnish satisfactory proof of marriage. She was married March 26. 1789 in the state of Connecticut and the question that I wish to ask is - Will affidavits be rec d to prove her marriage or must she get a certificate from records of marriage? Yours of course are prepared to say at once and by doing so you will confers a favor

Dear Sir
Enclosed I send you a certificate of the comptroller of Connecticut which is the best that we can obtain in relation to the service of Isaiah Chaffin in the revolution - The friends of widow Chaffin have been to considerable expense in their endeavors to get a pension for her and I hope that this certificate together with the proof produced by her C, when she got her pension may be deemed sufficient - The C's duplicate is recorded in "Book E. Vol 4 page 51" - We can get proof of the marriage of Mrs Chaffin to the satisfaction of the Department - I enclose this and request you to say whether it will be deemed suff- icient in connection with the proof now on file in your office as to her C's services? If it is not sufficient why not may assured stop before incurring any more expense, I believe you require the best proof the nature of the case will warrant and as there appears to be no documentary evidence in the matter I suppose you will require secondary proof and that you have on file, will you give me your conclusion on this point at once as we have been striving to accomplish something for the old lady a long time & she is really needy. I would not trouble you except from the peculiar circumstances of this case

I have received your favor of the 20 th ult. relating to the claim of Joanna Chaffee in which you say that "The services of Josiah Chaffee should be certified by the Comptroller of Corrections". The services of Josiah Chaffee have never been proved and he received a pension from 1834 until his decease in 1839, as you will see by certificate No. 20109 recorded in your office in Book E. Vol 4. P. 51. Thinking that this fact did not occur to you when you examined the papers, you will excuse me for inquiring if the Compt. Certificate is necessary in addition to the proof now on file in your office?

Mr Chaffin died in Sept 1840 left Joanna Chaffin his widow, Widow Chaffin is 74 years of age and was married to Mr C. in 1798 (of course after the war) is still a widow - The inquiry I now wish to make is this, can widow C. draw a pension under the law of last Congress passed March 3, 1843 and if so what proof does she need in order to obtain it -?

Enclosed are papers for the purpose of obtaining a pension for Mrs. Joanna Chappin widow of Josiah Chappin a Revolutionary pensioner de- ceased. Widow Chappin is entitled to a draw, but I am not quite certain that the papers are all required, I could not conveniently obtain her own afft as to her marriage, but have true as to the death of Josiah Chappin & that Mrs. C. remains his widow - Our county clerk has not made her certificate as I directed him either. But I have consecuted to forward the papers to you and if they will answer the purpose well, if not please return them & advise me what further is necessary to be done & I will immedi- ately furnish it if possible, as Mrs. C. is entitled to a draw & is really a worthy old Lady & I feel desirous to obtain it for her. Josiah Chappin drew pension as you will see by reference to the papers on file in your office a clue to which is given by copy duplicate in the wid- ows declaration - Your attention to this subject is solicited at your ear- liest convenience.
