Dear Madam:
Reference is made to your letter in which you request the Revolutionary War records of Abraham George Claypoole and John Gwynne, also, Civil War record of David Gwynne who served from Ohio or Kentucky and whose wife was Sarah.
No claim for pension has been found based upon service of David Gwynne who served from Ohio or Kentucky in the Civil War. In order to identify the record of John Gwynne in the Revolutionary War, as much as possible of the following data are essential: approximate dates of birth and death, places of residence at enlistment and after service and given name of widow.
The record of one Abraham G. Claypoole has been found which follows:
The Revolutionary War records of this office show that Warrant No. 414, for three hundred acres of bounty land, was issued May 3, 1796, on account of the services of Abraham G. Claypoole, as Captain in the Pennsylvania Line, War of the Revolution.
This office has no record of statements made in the application for bounty land, because of the destruction of papers in such early applications when the War Office was burned in 1800, therefore, no further data relative to Abraham G. Claypoole.
If you desire information in regard to location of the land referred to above, you should write to the Commissioner of the General Land Office, Interior Department, this city, and cite the number of the warrant, the acreage and date of issuance.
Very truly yours

There are no papers on file relative to said claim as they were destroyed when the War Office was burned in 1800, therefore there is no further data in regard to him.
Said records fail to afford any information in regard to William Osborne described by you.
Very respectfully,
G. M. Fitzgibbon
Commissioner.
