Roger F. Williams Frankfort New York
Sir:
I have to advise you that from the papers in the Revolutionary War pension claim, S. 10832, it appears that BENJAMIN HERVEY was born in Taghkanic, Columbia County, New York.
While a resident of Sharon, Connecticut, he enlisted in June or July, 1775, and served until January, 1776, as a private in Captain John McKinstry's Company in Colonel Paterson's Massachusetts Regiment.
While a resident of Salem, New York, he enlisted in 1779 and served at various times until sometime in the summer of 1782, amounting to one year and three weeks in all, as a private in Captain John Armstrong's Company in Colonel Webster's New York Regiment.
He was allowed pension on his application executed August 14, 1832, at which time he was a resident of Frankfort, Herkimer County, New York.
There are no data on file relative to his family.
This soldier was, through error, recorded as Benjamin Harvey in the Census of Pensioners which was published in 1840.
The Revolutionary War records of this bureau fail to afford any information in regard to a Benjamin Harvey.
Respectfully,
WINFIELD SCOTT Commissioner

Madam:
I have to advise you that from the papers in the Revolutionary War pension claim, S. 10832, it appears that BENJAMIN HERVEY was born in Toghkanie, Columbia County, New York.
While a resident of Sharon, Connecticut, he enlisted in June or July, 1775, and served until January, 1776, as a private in Captain John McKinstry's Company in Colonel Paterson's Massachusetts Regiment.
While a resident of Salem, New York, he enlisted in 1779 and served at various times until sometime in the summer of 1782, amounting to one year and three weeks in all, as a private in Captain John Armstrong's Company in Colonel Webster's New York Regiment.
He was allowed pension on his application executed August 16, 1832, at which time he was a resident of Frankfort, Herkimer County, New York.
There are no data on file relative to his family.
This is the only soldier by the name of Benjamin Hervey that is found on the Revolutionary War records of this Bureau and there is no record of a Benjamin Harvey.
Respectfully,
Date of death not on A.B.

He does not state that he witnessed the killing of Walter Butler at West Canada Creek.
His name is erroneously printed Harvey on the census of pensioners of 1840.
The proper amount in payment for photostat copies, should be forwarded to this Bureau, by money order or certified check, drawn to the order of the Secretary of the Interior, ( not to the order of the Commissioner of Pensions).
