The Situation of myself and Family
Page 3 rd
My Family now consists, of myself, Aged Sixty one Years old, the 20 th day of September next, insuing the date hereof. I have no Trade, have had to follow such pursuits, as my health and different circumstances in Providence, offered for my support, but have never been able to get my living by hard Labour, since I left the Army. In Monmouth Battle, I was all but melted, was afterwards, sent to the Hospital, from thence was furlowed, to go home, was there for a length of time under the Doctors care, and but little hope was entertained of my Recovery, I had his Bill to Pay, while at home, I returned to camp again before I was fit for Duty, (my Parents being poor) and continuing weak for some Time, I was put by my Officers among the Music, to learn to Drum there I continued, untill I was Discharged. Some time after Returning home I had, another fit of sickness and was under the Doctors care about three years, Had a Swelling near my Kidneys and had my Body perforated to discharge the Matter, and have never since been a well Man, and every year since, more or less, I have been under the Doctors care. My friends, have been very kind to me, as I could not have Supported my Family and paid my numerous Physicians Bills, In my Opinion, my Constitution was thus destroyed, in my Countries Service, But with the aid already received, from my beloved Country and if continued, by it, to me, my situation in life will be made more Comfortable, and my Heart (I trust) will never cease 'till Death to flow with Gratitude, to God, and my Country for it. My Wife Eunice, Aged fifty eight, years old, in February next, has had a Good Constitution, and can do as much now towards the support of her Family, as most Women can of her years, — My Daughter Sally Aged twenty six years old the 26 th day of December next, She has been an Invalid, from her Birth, and unable to support herself. and there is not even a probability that she ever will be. — My Son Ede Hatch Aged Twenty three years old in July next lives with us at present can leave us at pleasure, Eleazar Hatch Thirteen years old the 13 th Day of March next, is expected, to go out to a Trade next Spring. The rest of the Children five in Number are Married, and all but one Daughter live a great Distance from us, and their circumstances

are none of them affluent, I have a Niece Esther Chapman who lives with us at present, in order to assist us. She is of age and goes, and comes, as she pleases. These constitute my present Family —

On March 31, 1920 you were furnished the history of the only Ede Hatch (S.44918) found on the Revolutionary War records of this bureau and it does not appear that he ever applied for bounty land.
Respectfully,
E. W. MORGAN, Acting Commissioner.

In reply to your request for a statement of the military history of Ede Hatch a soldier of the REVOLUTIONARY WAR, you will find below the desired information Rev AD as contained in his ( or his widow's ) application for pension on file in this Bureau.
