Declaration in order to obtain the benefit of the act of Congress passed June 7 th 1832
State of Indiana Floyd County 3 rd
On this 11 th day of April 1833 personally appeared before the undersigned who is a judge of the Floyd Circuit Court, Daniel Brall a resident of the county & state aforesaid, aged seventy three years, who being first duly sworn according to law, doth on his oath make the following declaration in order to obtain the benefit of the act of Congress passed June 7 th 1832
That he entered the service of the United States under the following named officers & served as herein stated. In the autumn of the year 1776, as he believes, but he is not certain as to the year, & he cannot state the month, but he knows the harvest was just over, declarant, then living in the county of Lancaster & state of Pennsylvania, was drafted as a private in the militia, to go into the service of the United States for the term of two months. He was marched from Lancaster county direct, he believes, to Powderly's Hook, where he continued on duty until the expiration of his term of two months. During that period, Caspar Stivers was his captain, the names of his colonel & other superior officers he does not recollect; he thinks there were no troops, but militia at the Hook while he was there.
At the expiration of said two months, declarant volunteered or enlisted, he does not know which, at Powderly's Hook, as a private for the term of six months. Anthony Forster was his captain, Klottz his colonel & Mercer his general. Immediately after this enlistment, he was marched to Fort Lee in New Jersey; & he continued on duty at & near that place, though not engaged in any battle, for about three months; & then he was taken a prisoner by the enemy as he was standing on guard, & about the time

The American troops evacuated the fort. He was kept as a prisoner for some time in the city of New York, & afterwards on a prison-ship near the city, then was discharged on his parole & went home for a short time, & was finally exchanged about the end of his term of enlistment.
He claims further that after his exchange & while he was still living in Lancaster county, he was drafted three several times for the term of two months each time; he however did not serve himself, but hired substitutes who served the whole time for him.
He claims lived in Lancaster county some fifteen or twenty years after he was closed, & then he removed to Jefferson county Kentucky where he married & resided until about nineteen years since, when he removed to Floyd county & has ever since resided there. He is a farmer, was born in said Lancaster county, & was twenty three years of age last April, but has no record of his age. He states that he served the United States in the manner aforesaid for the full term of eight months. He received no discharge at the close of his service; & he has no documentary evidence of his service; nor does he know of any person by whom he can prove them excepting Peter Titteler, whose certificate is annexed to this declaration.
He hereby relinquishes every claim whatever to a pension or annuity except the present & declares that his name is not on the pension-roll of the agency of any State.

REGULATIONS UNDER THE ACT OF JUNE 7, 1832.
The following regulations have been adopted:
This law has been construed to extend, as well to the line, as to every branch of the Staff of the Army, and to include under the terms "Continental Line," "State troops," "militia," and "volunteers," all persons enlisted, drafted, or who volunteered and who were bound to military service, but not those who were occasionally employed with the army upon civil contracts, such as Clerks to Commissaries and to Store Keepers, &c., Teamsters, Boatmen, &c. Persons who served on board of private armed vessels are also excluded from the benefits of the law, as well as persons who turned out as patrols, or were engaged in guarding particular places at night, and were not recognized as being in actual military service.
Four general classes of cases are embraced in this law:
 1. The Regular Troops.  2. The State Troops, Militia, and Volunteers.  3. Persons employed in the Naval Service.  4. Indian Spies. 
As rolls of the regular troops in the Revolutionary War exist in this Department, all persons claiming the benefit of this law as officers, non-commissioned officers, musicians or privates, will, in the first instance, make application by transmitting the following declaration, which will be made before a Court of Record of the County where such applicant resides. And every Court having by law a seal and Clerk is considered a Court of Record.
DECLARATION,
In order to obtain the benefit of the Act of Congress of the 7th of June, 1832.
State, Territory, or District of } ss. County of }
On this day of personally appeared (a) before A. B. a resident (b) of in the county of and State, Territory or District of aged (c) years, who being first duly sworn, according to law, doth on his oath make the following declaration, in order to obtain the benefit of the provision made by the act of Congress, passed June 7th, 1832. That he enlisted in the Army of the United States in the year (d) , with and served in the (e) regiment of the line, under the following named officers:
[Here set forth the names and rank of the Field and Company Officers; the time he left the service; (and if he served under more than one term of enlistment, he must specify the particular period, and rank and names of his officers;) the town or county and State in which he resided when he entered the service; the battles, if any, in which he was engaged, and the country through which he marched. This form is to be varied so as to apply to the cases of officers and persons who belonged to the militia, volunteers, navy, &c.]
He hereby relinquishes every claim (f) whatever to a pension or an annuity, except the present, and he declares that his name is not on the Pension Roll of any Agency in any State, or (if any) only on that of the Agency in the State of
Sworn to and subscribed the day and year aforesaid.
A. B.
[And then will follow the certificate of the Court.]
And the said Court do hereby declare their opinion (g) that the above named applicant was a revolutionary soldier, and served as he states.
I of the Court of do hereby certify (h) that the foregoing contains the original proceedings of the said Court in the matter of the application of for a pension.
In testimony whereof, I have hereunto set my hand and seal of office (i) this day of &c.
If, on examination of the proper record, the names of applicants, making such declaration, cannot be found, they will produce such proof as the rule given in note (j) points out.
Every applicant who claims a pension by virtue of service in the State Troops, Volunteers or Militia, except those who belonged to the New Hampshire Militia and State Troops of Virginia, will make and subscribe a declaration similar to the foregoing, with the following additions, viz:
(k) We, A. B., a Clergyman, residing in the and C. D. residing in (the same) hereby certify, that we are well acquainted with , who has subscribed and sworn to the above declaration; that we believe him to be years of age; that he is reputed and believed, in the neighborhood where he resides, to have been a soldier of the Revolution, and that we concur in that opinion.
Sworn and subscribed the days and year aforesaid.
[And then will follow the certificate of the Court.]
And the said Court do hereby declare their opinion, after the investigation of the matter, and after putting the interrogatories prescribed by the War Department, that the above named applicant was a Revolutionary Soldier, and served as he states. And the Court further certifies, that it appears to them that A. B. who has signed the preceding certificate is a clergyman, resident in the and that C. D., who has also signed the same is a resident in the and is a credible person, and that their statement is entitled to credit.
I, Clerk of the Court of do hereby certify that the foregoing contains the original proceedings of the said Court, in the matter of the application of for a pension.
In testimony whereof, I have hereunto set my hand and seal of office, this day of &c.
Every applicant will produce the best proof in his power. This is the original discharge or commission; but if neither of these can be obtained, the party will so state under oath, and will then procure, if possible, the testimony of at least one credible witness, stating in detail his personal knowledge of the services of the applicant, and such circumstances connected therewith, as may have a tendency to throw light upon the transaction.
If such surviving witness cannot be found, the applicant will so state in his declaration, (l) and he will also, whether he produce such evidence or not, proceed to relate all the material facts, which can be useful in the investigation of his claim, and in the comparison of his narrative with the events of the period of his

alleged service, as they are known at the Department. A very full account of the services of each person will be indispensable to a favorable action upon his case. The facts stated will afford one of the principal means of corroborating the declaration of the applicant, if true, or of detecting the imposition, if one be attempted; and unless, therefore, these are amply and clearly set forth, no favorable decision can be expected. All applicants will appear before some Court of Record in the County in which they reside, and there subscribe and be sworn to, one of the declarations above provided, according to the nature of his case.
The Court will propound the following ( m ) interrogatories to all applicants for a pension, on account of service in the Militia, State troops, or Volunteers, except the Militia of New Hampshire and the State troops of Virginia.
 1. Where and in what year were you born?  2. Have you any record of your age, and if so, where is it?  3. Where were you living when called into service; where have you lived since the Revolutionary war, and where do you now live?  4. How were you called into service; were you drafted, did you volunteer, or were you a substitute? And if a substitute, for whom?  5. State the names of some of the Regular Officers, who were with the troops, where you served; such Continental and Militia Regiments as you can recollect, and the general circumstances of your services.  6. { To a Soldier. } Did you ever receive a discharge from the service, and if so, by whom was it given, and what has become of it? { To an Officer. } Did you ever receive a commission, and if so, by whom was it signed, and what has become of it?  7. State the names of persons to whom you are known in your present neighborhood, and who can testify as to your character for veracity, and their belief of your services as a soldier of the Revolution. 
The Court will see that the answers to these questions are embodied in the declaration, and they are requested to annex their opinions of the truth of the statement of the applicant.
The applicant will further produce in Court, if the same can be done, in the opinion of the Court, without too much expense and inconvenience to him, two respectable persons—one of whom should be the nearest clergyman, if one lives in the immediate vicinity of such applicant, who can testify, from their acquaintance with him, that they believe he is of the age he represents, and that he is reputed and believed in the neighborhood to have been a Revolutionary soldier, and that they concur in that opinion. If one of these persons is a Clergyman, the Court will so certify, and they will also certify to the character and standing of other persons giving such certificates.
The traditional evidence of service is deemed very important, in the absence of any direct proof, except the declaration of the party. And the Courts are requested to be very particular in the enquiry whether the belief is general, and whether any doubts have ever existed upon the subject.
Applicants unable to appear in Court, by reason of bodily infirmity, may make the declaration before required, and submit to the examination, before a Judge or Justice of a Court of Record of the proper county, and the Judge or Justice will execute the duties, which the Court is herein requested to perform, and will also certify that the applicant cannot, from bodily infirmity, attend the Court.
Whenever any official act is required to be done by a Judge or Justice of a Court of Record, or by a Justice of the Peace, the certificate of the Secretary of State or Territory, or of the proper Clerk of the Court or County, under his seal of office, will be annexed, stating that such person is a Judge or Justice of a Court of Record, or a Justice of the Peace, and that the signature annexed is his genuine signature.
No payments can be made on account of the services of any person, who may have died before the taking effect of the act of June 7, 1832; and in case of death subsequent thereto, and before the declaration herein required is made, the parties interested will transmit such evidence as they can procure, taken and authenticated before a Court of Record, showing the services of the deceased, the period of his death, the opinion of the neighborhood respecting such services, the title of the claimant, and the opinion of the Court upon the whole matter.
[a] The declarant must appear in open Court, unless prevented from doing so by reason of bodily infirmity; in which case the declarant will follow the rule laid down for his guidance.
[b] The declarant must make his declaration in the county where he resides. If he should fail to do so, he must assign a sufficient reason for not conforming to the rule.
[c] The age of the claimant must invariably be mentioned.
[d] The declarant must mention the period or periods of the war when he served.
[e] Every continental officer or soldier must give the name of the Colonel under whom he served; otherwise a satisfactory examination of the claim cannot be had. Every claimant must state, with precision, the length of his service, and the different grades in which he served, in language so definite as to enable the Department to determine to what amount of pension he is entitled. In a case where the applicant cannot, by reason of the loss of memory, state precisely how long he served, he should amend his declaration by making an affidavit in the following words:
"Personally appeared before me, the undersigned, a Justice of the Peace, &c. A. B. who, being duly sworn, deposeth and saith, that, by reason of old age, and the consequent loss of memory, he cannot swear positively as to the precise length of his service; but, according to the best of his recollection, he served not less than the periods mentioned below, and in the following grades:—For _____ year _____ months, and _____ days, I served as a _____. For _____ months and _____ days, I served as a _____; and for such service I claim a pension."
It is important, in all cases, to determine with precision the period for which each applicant served, and the particular rank he held, as the law directs the pension to be paid according to the grade of the pensioner and the length of his service. The use of the phrase about three or four months , is too indefinite, and all such qualifying expressions are objectionable. Some persons who apply for pensions merely state that they served two years in the militia, &c. without specifying the years, the names of the officers, and other particulars respecting their service. This form of a declaration is highly objectionable. It must, in every case, be clearly shown under what officers the applicant served; the duration of each term of engagement; the particular place or places where the service was performed; that the applicant served with an embodied corps called into service by competent authority; that he was either in the field or in garrison; and for the time during which the service was performed, he was not employed in any civil pursuit.
[f] The law makes the relinquishment indispensable.
[g] The opinion of the Court is always required.
[h] The Clerk must give his certificate in every case.
[i] The Clerk must affix his seal, and if it has no device or inscription by which it can be distinguished from any other seal, or if he has no public seal of office, the certificate of a Member of Congress, proving the official character and signature of the certifying officer, should accompany the papers.
Mode of authenticating papers.
In every instance where the certificate of the certifying officer who authenticates the papers is not written on the same sheet of paper which contains the affidavit, or other papers authenticated, the certificate must be attached thereto by a piece of tape or narrow ribbon, the ends of which must pass under the seal of office of the certifying officer, so as to prevent any paper from being improperly attached to the certificate.
Proof of Service.
[j] In a case where the name of the applicant is not found on the records of the Department, he must prove his service by two credible witnesses who are required to set forth in their affidavits the time of the claimant's entering the service, and the time and manner of his leaving the same, as well as the regiment, company, and line to which he belonged. The magistrate who may administer the oaths must certify to the credibility of the witnesses, and the official character and signature of the magistrate must be certified by the proper officer, under his seal of office.
[k] The notes from [a] to [i] are all equally applicable to the cases of Militia men, Volunteers and State Troops. The proof required by rule in note [j] applies to continental troops only.
[l] This traditional evidence is indispensable in militia cases.
[m] If a witness cannot be found, the declarant must state the fact.
[n] The answers to the interrogatories must all be written, and sent to the War Department, with the declaration.

And I want you to send the forms to me for obtaining a land warrant for the old lady I suppose the last session of Congress has give all the soldiers and and pensioners 160 acres of land and it is said that the Pensioners of the Revolutionary war that was less than 100 dollars is now raised to 100 dollars if it is so I want you to give word to me

New-Albany, Nov. 11th. 1854, W. W. Whitten, Esq.
Dear Sir:- Yours of the 3 rd inst. is at hand. In examining the records of the Probate Court of our County I find that on the 18 th day of July 1840, the Will of Daniel admitted to probate upon the testimony of Jacob Yancey and William Liddickay, and that said Will was made and signed on the 13 th day of August 1836, and that Letters of administration were granted to Catharine Deal on said 18 th day of July 1840.
I am at a loss to know in what manner to certify to his death, but will, if you desire, send you a certified copy of the Will, probate and appointment of Administratrix
Respectfully S. P. Town, CLK

Leavenworth, Crawford Co., Indiana, 3 November 11, 1853.
To the Commissioner of Pensions:
Sir—Daniel Deal, a Revolutionary Soldier, drew a pension from the United States. He received his pay for a while at Corydon, Indiana, and afterwards at New Albany Ind. He died 14 or 15 years ago. His widow, who never afterwards married, is still living, and desires to obtain the amount from the government, the amount due her as the surviving widow of said deceased. She does not know what officer he served under—nor has she any papers of his, showing how long he served—where he was discharged &c, but thinks the facts may be easily ascertained from the records in your office.
If you have the necessary proofs that he was entitled to a pension , what proofs must she furnish in order to obtain the amount due her from the U.S.?
An early answer will oblige
Yours, very respectfully, Ira W. Whitten

Leavenworth, Crawford County, Ind., August 8, 1854.
Dear Sir - Enclosed please find the Declaration of Catherine Deal, a certified copy of her marriage and a Power of Attorney executed by her to me.
The certified copy of her marriage is not as made out according to the instructions of the Department, the seal being rather dim, &c, but if you will take the trouble to inquire of the Hon James Guthrie, Hon Wm Preston and others from Louisville Ky they will, perhaps, be able to recognize the handwriting of Mr Pope the Clerk and testify to the genuineness of the document.
Very Respectfully yours M. W. Whitten

Leavenworth, Ind., Nov 24, 1854.
To the Commr. of Pensions
Dear Sir—In a late note to me you state that the Records show that Daniel Deal's pension was drawn after the time which I have proved that he died. That is true enough. A payment or perhaps two payments were due him at the time of his death (1839-40) which were obtained and drawn at New Albany by his widow, Catherine Deal.
I must again represent to you that I cannot procure any better evidence of his death than what has already been filed.—Enclosed is a letter from the Clerk of Floyd County which is not offered as evidence but merely to show that there are no records there by which to prove his death. There are not now any such persons in that County as Wm Lidskay and Jacob Yenanwine—nor can I find any one else there who can swear to the precise time of Deal's death.
Taking into consideration the evidence adduced here in Court and already filed in your office, I think you would perhaps be justifiable in issuing the certificate
Yours &
W. H. Whitten Atty for Catherine Deal

Leavenworth Crawford Co Ind August 21, 1884.
Dear Sir— Enclosed Please find a Certified Copy of the Order made by us the Court of Common Pleas of this County in relation to Mrs Deal's Declaration. Perhaps it will be sufficient evidence that she is the identical widow &c. Mr Harts and Nancy Wilson testified to the all the facts required to exist by the Department, but in the hurry of writing their affidavits a portion of their testimony was omitted.
Mrs Deal is about to become a "County Charge" and if it will an act of great kindness to her if the Department will examine and decide upon her claim at an early day.
Very Respectfully H. H. Whitten

Leavenworth Ind Oct 13, 1834.
To the Commissioner of Pensions:
Dear Sir:— Your letter has been received stating that Daniel Deal drew his pension sometime after the time which Nancy Wilson and Anna Waltz depose that he is died. I have questioned these witnesses and they say that he might have died later than the period mentioned in the affidavit, but they, or Miss Wilson at least, thinks that the time is correctly stated. There are no other persons by whom Mrs Deal can prove the death of her husband. It is true she can find many persons who know that he died some 10 or 12 years ago, but they cannot swear to the precise day or year of his death.
If he drew his pension for a while after July 4 1839, she is willing that the amount drawn shall be deducted from the amount due her.
If the exact day of his death must be proved before the allowance can be obtained, she will abandon the claim; for, as above stated, she knows of no person who can swear positively to the precise time of his death.
Yours, respectfully
N. W. Whitten
