Will you kindly give me the "military history" of one Daniel Cone who served in a Connecticut regiment, and commenced to receive a pension about 1818. At the time of his death he was living in Peru Mass. I think he died in Peru about 1842 or near that. This will assist us much in tracing up the Cone family. If there are others before him from that Place

We would be pleased to get their History also. If I remember right the name of the Town is East Haddam Conn. Hoping to hear from you soon I Remain
Sincerely Yours
