Mrs. Annie C. Durst Greenwood, Box 585 South Carolina.
Dear Madam:
I advise you from the Revolutionary War records of this Bureau it appears that Thomas Chiles served as Captain during the Revolution and was wounded while in the service, nature of wound and details of service not stated.
He was allowed pension from March 4, 1795, on account of disability resulting from said wound.
On August 30, 1820 he was a resident of Anson county, North Carolina, and was at that time referred to as General Thomas Chiles.
He died September 15, 1820. His age is not given.
There are no further data relative to his service and none whatever relative to his family, due to the destruction of papers when the War Office was burned in 1800.
Very truly yours,
EARL D. CHURCH Commissioner.
